Chapter 1940 – Play Big If You Want To Play (3)
Shen Yanxiao merely smiled and did not speak. She reached out and rubbed Taotie’s small head.
The next day, Shen Yanxiao arrived at the martial arts arena on time to prepare for a new day of training, but as soon as she walked in, she saw that all the students there had already started training. Every one of them was covered with beads of sweat. Obviously, they had come over very early, repeatedly practicing what Shen Yanxiao had taught them over the previous month. They spontaneously paired up with one another and conducted friendly duels.
“Mentor Yan Di!” The teenagers noticed Shen Yanxiao’s arrival and stopped their training.
A youth with a vibrant smile on his sweat-filled face greeted Shen Yanxiao.
“Mentor Yan Di.” Zhanye and Shile came out of the crowd and stood in front of Shen Yanxiao.
They bent their waists over and bowed to her.
“I’m sorry, we’ve caused you trouble.”
Yesterday, when they woke up from their slumber, they learned of the bet between Shen Yanxiao and Luoqiu from their other classmates. This news shocked the two hot-blooded young men on the spot.
Zhanye’s heart was full of guilt. If there were no contradiction between Naken and him, Shile and he would not have been taken away. Then, Shen Yanxiao would not have run to Luoqiu for their disappearance, and none of these things would have happened.
Shen Yanxiao and Luoqiu ended up making such a harsh bet; it was all because of them.
At this moment, Zhanye regretted very much that he was so impulsive. He was the one who made a mistake, but their mentor would be the one to bear the consequences.
“Mentor Yan Di, I really apologize for my disrespect to you before.” Shile’s voice choked a little. He was much more cheerful than Zhanye. At first, he did not take Shen Yanxiao seriously. But by this point in time, he had already treated Shen Yanxiao as his true mentor. Shen Yanxiao did not hesitate to confront Luoqiu for the sake of the two students who had been rude to her at the beginning.
Shen Yanxiao looked at Zhanye and Shile with a smile on her lips.
“Do you think you’re going to lose?”
All the students grew silent. They did not want to lose, but the disparity between their strength was simply too big. The will was there, but not the strength.
“But I don’t think so.” Shen Yanxiao smilingly said.
The faces of every student showed a trace of surprise, gratitude and helplessness.
They were grateful for Shen Yanxiao’s trust and praises for them, but they were helpless, feeling that they would fail to live up to her expectations.
If they could be a little stronger, maybe Shen Yanxiao would not have to face such a dilemma.
Perhaps it was due to remorse, perhaps it was their unwillingness to be defeated, but this morning, all the students in the whole class tacitly chose to come to the martial arts arena to train. From the moment the sky had just brightened until right now, they had not rested for a moment. They did not even squeeze out some time for meals in between.
They were determined to give their all and do their utmost, hoping that in a month’s time, their strength could be a little greater, even just a little.
Because, it was not only themselves they were going to represent, but also Shen Yanxiao.
Their success or failure was directly related to whether their mentor could continue to stay in this academy in the future or not.
For their dignity, Shen Yanxiao used her own fate, staying within or leaving the academy, to press down the last stroke.
“Let me ask you, do you want to win the competition after a month or not?” Shen Yanxiao restrained the smile on her face and looked at her students seriously.
