Preliminaries End and Arrangements

"There's something I forgot to mention. I actually also have Fire Immunity!" Standing in front of Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang, Lu Yuan's lips curled slightly, and his voice came out softly.

"Fire Immunity?" Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang's faces darkened almost simultaneously, as if they had swallowed a fly.

I felt incredibly disgusted.

No wonder this guy was completely unfazed by the flames, even easily scattering the flames on his body with a single palm strike, showing no signs of being affected by the flames at all. It turns out this guy actually has the ability to Fire Immunity.

This is disgusting. We were no match for this guy to begin with, and then he showed up with Fire Immunity. You have to know that everyone in the Blazing Fire Academy is fire-attribute, so this is a perfect counter.

Huo Wushuang's heart was bleeding. If he had known that this guy was Fire Immunity, he would never have participated in the match. Wasn't this just disgusting him?

Seeing that you can't even scratch someone's head despite your best efforts is definitely not a pleasant feeling.

"So, do you two still want to continue fighting?" Lu Yuan asked with a slight smile, noticing Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang's slightly darkened faces.

"Fight? What's the point of fighting?" Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Huo Wushuang immediately blurted out. Less than thirty seconds into the battle, three of his men had been sent flying, their combined attack completely thwarted. The other side had easily crushed all seven of them; the difference in strength was simply too great.

However, that's not the most important thing. The most crucial point is that after this guy leisurely deflected all the attacks, he even casually said, "I'm Fire Immunity." This is extremely unfriendly to Huo Wushuang.

He was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

This is exactly the same feeling Tang San had when he heard that Lu Yuan's Golden Dragon Battle Body was immune to control skills—he felt like he'd been screwed over.

"Does Miss Huo Wu still want to continue fighting?" Hearing Huo Wushuang's words, he knew that this guy didn't want to fight anymore, so Lu Yuan immediately turned his gaze to Huo Wu.

Huo Wu stared straight at Lu Yuan with her large, fiery red eyes, her gaze filled with intense resentment. Her fists were clenched tightly, and her full chest heaved.

She was truly unwilling to accept defeat. Even if she had lost, she wouldn't have complained, since Lu Yuan was so strong, it was normal for him to lose.

However, Lu Yuan now has a Fire Immunity skill, which is quite annoying. It means that all of his skills have become ineffective at the same time. Losing like this is too frustrating, because it is not a loss due to strength.

That damned Lu Yuan, how could he have such a disgusting skill as Fire Immunity?

And even if you have it, can't you just not say it?

Or you can talk about it after you've finished playing.

Now that it's been said, should I continue playing or admit defeat?

Keep fighting? Knowing you have Fire Immunity and still continuing to fight, isn't that just asking for trouble and making yourself miserable?

But I'm so unwilling to admit defeat!

Huo Wu clenched her fists, feeling a surge of anger.

"Miss Huo Wu, shall we continue?" Looking at Huo Wu's appearance, Lu Yuan asked again.

"We surrender!" Huo Wu intently at Lu Yuan, forcing out the four words through gritted teeth. Clearly, Lu Yuan's words had already pushed her to the breaking point.

"Very good, a wise choice." Hearing this, Lu Yuan smiled faintly. It was good that they took the initiative to admit defeat. After all, he had a good impression of the Blazing Fire Academy. If they refused to admit defeat and a fight broke out, it would be bad if someone got hurt.

That's why he said those words.

Otherwise, Huo Wu's competitive nature, she would definitely fight back with all her might. He would be fine, but he was afraid that the girl would get hurt. Now that they have voluntarily admitted defeat, it is a good thing.

"Match over, Heavenly Star Academy Team wins!" Since Blazing Fire Academy had conceded defeat, the host's voice immediately rang out, announcing Heavenly Star Academy's victory.

"This match started strong but ended weakly!" Zhu Zhuqing's voice rang out as soon as Lu Yuan returned to the waiting area.

"Mainly because I was too lazy to fight. Their strength was too low, and I had a good impression of the Blazing Fire Academy. I didn't want to hurt them, so I just told them that I Fire Immunity. Once they knew that, they voluntarily admitted defeat," Lu Yuan said with a soft laugh.

"Oh!" Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing nodded, indicating that she understood.

"The competition is over for today. I estimate there won't be any more matches in the qualifiers, so we can start preparing for the knockout stage," Lu Yuan said with a light laugh.

"Hmm!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"Then we can head back now. I have some things I'd like to discuss with everyone once we get back," Lu Yuan said, glancing at the crowd.

"Okay." Everyone nodded.

"Let's go then!" Lu Yuan said softly, then turned and left, and the Heavenly Star Academy Team followed behind Lu Yuan, heading towards the entrance of the arena.

Heavenly Star Academy, Inner Court, Training Grounds!

"Captain, what is it you want to tell us? Why are you so serious?" Ling Wei asked curiously, looking at Lu Yuan's serious face.

"Yes, brother, what's wrong?" Wang Qiu'er chimed in.

Seeing the curious looks on everyone's faces, Lu Yuan smiled slightly and said, "I have gathered you all here today because I have something important to tell you."

"I may not be able to lead you in the upcoming qualifying matches. I have some important things to take care of, so I will hand over the command of the team to Zhu Qing. Zhu Qing will lead you in the qualifying matches."

"Huh?" Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, everyone was taken aback. Lu Yuan had just said that he couldn't lead them to participate in the qualifying rounds?

"Important thing, what important thing is it? Brother, can you tell Qiu'er?" Wang Qiu'er stepped forward, grabbed Lu Yuan's arm, and asked in a sweet voice.

"Not yet, this matter needs to be kept secret." Lu Yuan said with a smile, gently pinching Wang Qiu'er's pink cheek.

"Alright then." Hearing this, Wang Qiu'er lowered her head and said somewhat dejectedly.

Seeing Wang Qiu'er's dejected look, Lu Yuan gently rubbed her head to comfort her.

As Lu Yuan affectionately rubbed her head, Wang Qiu'er's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, revealing an expression of enjoyment, her previous disappointment completely gone.

"Captain, is it really necessary to leave?" Fu Qinsheng asked softly, looking at Lu Yuan.

"Hmm!" Lu Yuan nodded and said, "This matter is very important and must be done. It will take a long time and cannot be resolved in a day or two. So the next promotion competition will depend on yourselves. With Zhu Qing's strength and Qin Sheng's control, I think it won't be difficult for you to pass the promotion competition."
