Chapter 20: The Amazing Girl, going on stage! (1/2)

Chapter 20: The Amazing Girl, going on stage!

There were still a few fine details Belo hadn’t told Ayrin about yet.

In the hottest thing in the entire kingdom, this Cup of Academy Braves that made countless students go crazy, the order of appearance was decided before the game started and handed to the referee. It couldn’t be changed midway.

Chris was originally meant to be the last one to go out. The teammate listed before her could only throw in the towel if he wanted to abstain.

This way, the score would become four – nil, and she would be the last team member left for Holy Dawn Academy.

The teammate beside her lowered his head. He didn’t express any objection.

He’d already lost his entire confidence after seeing Zola’s previous performances, and he knew Chris spoke the truth. Even if he had the courage to put his life on the line, he still wouldn’t be able to force Zola to dig too deep into his reserves with his current level.

“Forfeit?”

Everyone was waiting for the fourth Holy Dawn Academy contestant to come out, but they saw Chris step up instead. Many people realized what happened, after a moment of surprise. A clamor once again shook through the whole stands.

“Four-nil!”

“There’s only Chris left!”

“Don’t tell me she’ll handle the five on our side just by herself!”

Zola’s three quick and decisive victories in succession had already sent the Southern Monsoon students into a craze of excitement. Now seeing the score directly become four – nil, they became even more frenzied. Some people even yelled at the top of their lungs, “Four-nil already! Clean sweep! Clean sweep!” “Five-nil!”

“Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! …”

Ayrin was so angry he also yelled, desperately shouting his encouragement for Chris when he saw her step forward, but his voice was thoroughly drowned in Southern Monsoon’s cacophony. He thought that the Southern Monsoon students were really too arrogant.

At this moment, Ferdinand, the captain for team Southern Monsoon, gestured toward the stands.

The extraordinarily noisy stands suddenly quieted down.

“Chris, just give up. There’s no way you can defeat all five of us in succession.”

Ferdinand cleared his throat as Chris walked to the center of the field, then earnestly told her such a caring sentence.

Then, before anyone could come back to their senses, before Chris could say anything, he suddenly pulled out a red rose from behind his clothes, just like a magic trick. He said to Chris in a loud voice, “Chris, I’ve admired you for a long time already. Whether it’s your beauty or your strength, they both make me infatuated. Transfer to our Southern Monsoon Academy, and come fight at my side!”

“…!”

Countless people in the stands almost fell down face first.

“Is this guy a moron?” Ayrin stared dumbstruck at Ferdinand’s face filled with deep love. The thing that made him most speechless was, Ferdinand even posed and showed off his muscles at his time, flexed his pecs a couple times.

Belo offered this pertinent evaluation: “He’s about at the same level as you.”

“…” Chris never thought Ferdinand would say such a thing. She was thoroughly speechless.

“It’s forbidden to declare your flame in public once the competition is underway, otherwise your right to participation will be revoked.” A referee appeared in front of Ferdinand.

“Ah? There’s even a rule for this?” Ferdinand was very depressed.

Chris threw a ferocious stare at Ferdinand, walked in front of Zola, made a beckoning gesture with her hand. “Come.”

Her action was very casual, but Zola felt an inexplicable pressure.

The whole stands quieted down once again, because even people from Southern Monsoon academy knew very clearly in their inner selves that the Amazingly Crazy Girl’s reputation wasn’t for show. In a one versus one, Ferdinand and the others probably weren’t her match.

Zola nodded. He didn’t make a sound.

His body suddenly leaned down, his hands pressing on the ground. It seemed he was about to grab hard clay like earlier and send them flying at Chris, then use his four-limbed run to approach her.

But the moment his hands were about to touch the ground, they became enveloped in dazzling purple arcane particles. Two transparent spinning blades suddenly fired out, piercing toward Chris from both the left and the right.

“So treacherous!” Ayrin couldn’t help but shout out.

Many Holy Dawn students couldn’t help utter a cry of alarm either, up in the stands.

Chris made a strange movement at this time.

She merely turned around, stood still, pulling herself as if she were a door. From her posture facing Zola, she became a line facing Zola from the side.

This movement seemed simple and stiff, but just by happy chance, the two Formless Spinning Blades grazed past her, not touching her body.

“Worthy of the Amazingly Crazy Girl, such a keen judgment,” Belo mumbled to himself.

“An opportunity!” Zola silently screamed inside his mind at this moment. His originally faintly red eyes became crimson.

“Rip!” Along with the sound of tearing, his pair of shoes tore open, and his body leaped from the formidable propulsion of his legs. He threw a punch in Chris’ direction.

His body flew in the air, parallel to the ground, painting a weird picture together with Chris who stood with her side facing to him.

“What?”

It seemed Chris had no time to dodge at all. What thoroughly choked the breath of many people was, Chris simply didn’t use any arcane particle. At this juncture, she merely twisted her body, shouted out loud, and likewise threw a punch out.

“Bang!”

An explosive sound!

Two fists firmly clashed against each other.

Zola’s body that was flying like the wind through the air seemed to freeze all of a sudden, stopping in the middle of the air.

Impossible…
