Evil Emperor's Wild Consort - chapter-476

The next day.

At first light.

In the bustling plaza, the crowd was in the midst of fervent gossip.
However, they no longer looked at the Dongfang family with their initial
disdain.

The reason behind this was clear: Linlang’s battle yesterday had
successfully conquered the hearts of many! While she may not have been
the most outstanding and talented participant, her immense courage and
willpower kindled great admiration in everyone’s heart.

Just then, a faint cough sounded.

The City Governor cleared his throat and spoke in a grave and stern
voice, “Ladies and gentlemen, today we shall continue with the conclusion
of the Trials! Now…”

“Wait!”

A voice from below interrupted him before he could finish his
announcement.

The crowd’s eyes then turned collectively towards a young girl in green
who was standing above the plaza.

The young girl slowly made her way towards the arena under the watchful
eyes of the crowd. A gentle breeze brushed through the girl’s fine, black
hair. The morning light illuminated her delicate features and cast a
faint glow on her face. Her clear, cold gaze pierced through the hearts
of the crowd.

“What is she doing?”

Rongyue frowned and stared coldly at Gu Ruoyun as she made her way
towards the arena. A cold glint flashed across her eyes.

“Young lady, this is a competition.” The City Governor could not help but
frown as well, “If there’s anything you wish to say, you may speak after
the Trials.” He calmly stated.

Gu Ruoyun smiled gently, “City Governor, since this is a competition,
then can we have a decisive battle?”

“A decisive battle? What do you mean?”

The city governor’s frowned deepened as he thought, I seriously don’t
know that this girl is playing at.

“It’s simple,” Gu Ruoyun lightly raised the corners of her lips as she
swept her cold gaze across the faces in the crowd, “If anyone thinks they
can defeat me, step forward and fight me! If any of you manage to defeat
me, that means that the Dongfang family has truly lost. If none of you
manage to defeat me then the championship title of the Trials shall
belong to the Dongfang family!”

…!

The entire crowd was rendered speechless upon hearing Gu Ruoyun’s
proposition. It was so quiet that you could even hear the sound of a
gentle breeze blowing, crystal clear.

However, after a silent pause, they suddenly erupted into a gigantic
sensation. The noise immediately blanketed the entire plaza.

“She wants a decisive battle? Against all the geniuses from every
organization?”

“Where does this woman get her confidence? Forget about the Martial
Emperor Rongyue and Zuo Shangchen, she isn’t even a match for the rest of
the participants. How could the Dongfang family allow her to act with
such carelessness?”

“Insane, this woman is surely insane! Only a madwoman could spout such
delusional intentions!”

Forget about the rest, even the Dongfang family disciples were stunned by
Gu Ruoyun’s declaration. No one had anticipated that she would resort to
such means to speed up the conclusion of the Trials!

But when they remembered Gu Ruoyun’s recent display of talent, they began
to slowly calm down.

One could say that she would never execute a plan if she did not have a
guarantee. Seeing as she had made such a daring decision, she must be
absolutely certain of the outcome!

And they can only trust in her, that would be enough!

“This…” The City Governor stared in astonishment then turned around to
the three people behind him, “See this, oh wise Elders…”

“Alright!” Bai Xiangtian sneered, “I have no objections. Let us bend the
rules a little for her sake. As long as she wins the competition, I will
declare the Dongfang family to be the champions of the Trials! However,
she must complete all battles within an hour!”

That also means that Gu Ruoyun must fight her opponents one after another
without any opportunity for rest.

Regardless of how powerful she is, facing her opponents one after another
will tire her out. By then, she will face imminent defeat!
