The entire audience's attention was now focused on He Zitong.
The eight people closest to the arena held their breaths involuntarily, waiting patiently for He Zitong's choice.
Of course he won't choose someone from his own college, so his opponent will obviously be chosen from the remaining three people from Xuanbing College and the two from Nanshan College.
He Zitong looked around half a circle, and his eyes stayed on Ye Xiyue for a moment.
Ye Xiyue seemed to realize something. She raised her eyes slightly and looked back.
The two looked at each other.
Among these people, there are not many who are also in the realm of spiritual masters, and Nanshan College is single and weak, so Ye Xiyue is obviously a good choice.
"I want to choose——"
He Zitong's lips moved, and just as he spoke, he suddenly paused.
Wherever he looked, the girl in red whom he was eyeing suddenly raised the corners of her lips and smiled very softly.
That smile is really light and airy, and it also reveals the unattainable arrogance in the femur, which makes people subconsciously surrender.
Facing those clear, starry eyes, He Zitong's heart suddenly jumped hard, and the scene of the battle between Xiyue and Xiong Xiyuan last night appeared in his mind involuntarily.
Then a powerful Spirit King who has been famous for a long time has not gained any benefit in the hands of Ye Xiyue.
He Zitong knew very well how much he weighed. He would never be Xiong Xiyuan's opponent, let alone Ye Xiyue!
Even though she is just a spiritual master now, she still possesses frightening strength and pressure!
Somehow, He Zitong's Adam's apple rolled, and the three words that reached his throat were forcefully swallowed by him.
Then, he raised his hand and pointed in another direction:
"I choose Xuanbing Academy—Cheng Tianxue!"
...
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone on and off the court fell into an eerie silence.
Countless people cast doubtful looks at He Zitong.
"What's going on with He Zitong? Didn't he plan to choose Ye Xiyue? Why did he choose Cheng Tianxue instead?"
"In this situation, it is obviously better to deal with Nanshan College first, but he didn't start from here?"
"I really don't know what he is thinking..."
"In fact, it's not difficult to guess. Cheng Tianxue is also a peak spiritual master. Compared with Ye Xiyue, he may be easier to deal with. After all, Ye Xiyue is someone who can even defeat Xiong Xiyuan... If this is really a choice
Without her, wouldn't He Zitong be doomed to lose?"
...
The spectator stand became noisy, and everyone was talking about it.
Some people are confused, some are contemptuous, and some are laughing.
Those people didn't cover it up deliberately, and He Zitong naturally heard clearly.
His face burned, and he lowered his head in embarrassment, gritting his teeth secretly.
He originally planned to choose Ye Xiyue!
But he didn't know what happened just now. When her name came to his lips, he just couldn't say it.
In the end, Cheng Tianxue was chosen.
But things have come to this, and nothing can be changed.
He Zitong tried his best to ignore the various gazes falling on him, especially those from his own college, and took a deep breath.
Now, the only thing he can do is to try to defeat Cheng Tianxue!
...
Cheng Tianxue was also annoyed when his name was called.
But among the nine people who made it to the finals, apart from He Zitong, he and Ye Xiyue were the only spiritual masters.
He Zitong didn't dare to choose Ye Xiyue, so of course he would choose him.
He straightened his clothes and walked towards the stage.
