The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 399 Remedies & Compensation
"Cough cough cough..."

The group of people who were stunned by the collapse of the arena finally came to their senses. They looked like mud figures.

Xin Fu sat up, stared blankly at Yun Ran, then at the others. Well, everyone was the same.

He had just opened his mouth to speak when he was choked by the dust and coughed repeatedly.

He was forced to stop speaking whenever he wanted to.

It is said that when people feel guilty or embarrassed, they will always pretend to be very busy.

Upon seeing this scene, Yunran immediately turned her head away, pretending she hadn't seen anything, and then began gesturing in the air.

No one could understand what she was gesturing, but many people could still tell that Yun Ran was clearly filling in something.

However, they did not think that Yunran's patching was useful, and that Yunran should bear the main responsibility for the current situation.

Immediately, some people began to gloat.

"This competition is going to make us famous; it will probably become a typical case in the future."

"There has never been a precedent for athletes to have to pay compensation for damaging public property, but there will definitely be such a rule in the next competition."

"By the way, can we apply for compensation? Look at the state we've become!"

……

Perhaps because the people they hated were finally going to suffer, many people who had lowered their guard because of Yun Ran actually felt incredibly relieved at this moment.

Even if I look incredibly disheveled right now, it's not a big deal. Even people who are usually obsessed with cleanliness find the dust surprisingly pleasing to the eye.

But soon, they fell back into the mindset of continuing to break down defenses.

As Yunran was deemed to be gesturing haphazardly to ease the awkwardness, a huge, wind-swept vortex suddenly appeared beside her.

The dust particles flying around were immediately sucked into the vortex of wind by a powerful suction force.

Before anyone could fully react, the dust that had scattered everywhere, turning countless people into mud figures, was simply sucked away.

Looking around them, everything was spotless.

If it weren't for the fact that the arena below was just a large crater, they would have thought that the previous filth and chaos were all an illusion.

"This……"

The person who wanted to unleash a torrent of curses suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness, unsure of what words to use to describe their current feelings.

Yun Ran is first-rate at causing trouble, but she is also first-rate at resolving it.

If Yunran were from a Xuanmen aristocratic family, the entire Xuanmen aristocratic family alliance would immediately recommend her as a key candidate for development.

Unfortunately, she wasn't; in fact, she was someone who came to seize the resources of their Xuanmen family.

This feeling is as unpleasant as swallowing a fly.

Seeing that the dust had been sucked away, Yun Ran breathed a slight sigh of relief. This could be considered a partial remedy.

The vortex that absorbed the dust gradually subsided until it disappeared completely. No one knew where Yunran had taken all that dust.

The referees gave Yun Ran a deep look, and then had the surveillance video of Yun Ran shattering the arena with a single sword strike be played back.

The video was slowed down twenty times to determine the order in which the other three landed.

Xin Fu was lucky; he was standing behind Yun Ran and was the last of the three to land, thus securing second place.

The other two, coincidentally, landed at the same time. After deliberation, the judges decided that the other two would share third place.

"Does anyone have any objections to the results of this competition?"

Yunran and Xinfu naturally had no objections. The other two exchanged glances. Although they were a little disappointed to only get third place, they had no complaints.

The group immediately shook their heads: "No."

"Since no one has any objections, the results of this competition will soon be sent to the Special Administration Bureau for review... In addition, since the arena was destroyed, the awards ceremony has been cancelled after discussion among the referees."

Yun Ran could clearly sense that when the head referee announced the cancellation of the awards ceremony, his eyes were clearly targeting her.

Yun Ran immediately turned her head, pretending that she hadn't seen or heard anything. As long as her name wasn't mentioned, she could pretend she didn't know.

The referee was furious at Yun Ran's shamelessness; only he himself knew how angry he was.

The established procedures were completed, and in principle, these people should have stepped forward to congratulate Yun Ran on winning the championship.

But Yun Ran really opened their eyes, and they didn't want to say another word to her.

After the referee finished speaking, he didn't even glance at the people who had won the prizes before turning around and leaving.

The others also stood up and left one after another. The current scene was not what they had expected, so naturally they couldn't congratulate Yun Ran.

The ginseng fruit in the crowd rushed towards Yun Ran like a cannonball, holding a firework tube in its hand.

"boom"

"boom"

"boom"

……

Several deafening fireworks exploded in succession, and many spectators who were standing up to leave were startled by the sound.

"No way, how could Yun Ran and the others have the nerve to set off fireworks to celebrate under these circumstances? That's just too arrogant!"

"Have you forgotten that when we first arrived on the island, some people were already building up Yunran's reputation? If Yunran hadn't messed things up, she would probably be even more arrogant."

"Having made such a huge mess, I would absolutely be too embarrassed to celebrate!"

……

Ginseng Fruit rushed up to Yun Ran, grinning and saying ingratiatingly, "Congratulations, Master, on winning first place!"

The fireworks in his hand weren't the defective ones; they were ones Gu Yuan had prepared long ago, intending to set them off himself.

Unfortunately, Gu Yuan is not on the island right now, but the ginseng fruit won't let these things go to waste.

Sure enough, after Ginseng Fruit set off the first firework, the people Gu Yuan had left behind immediately started setting them off one after another.

This gave the once pristine but now dilapidated arena a touch of life and celebration thanks to the fireworks scattered around it.

Xin Fu also hurried over, offering words of congratulations: "Congratulations, Miss Yun."

Yunran nodded. Although the scene wasn't as lively and attention-grabbing as she had imagined, it was still festive at least.

Unfortunately, there are always some people who, at the worst possible time, spoil the mood when everyone is happy.

The director of the logistics department, holding a tablet in his hand, walked up to Yun Ran with a serious expression.

He swiped the tablet's interface and handed it to Yun Ran: "Ms. Yun, you have seriously damaged public property. This is the assessed value. Please confirm the amount so that we can make compensation later."
