Chapter 93: A troop of problem children
“Boss…”
Inside Dragon-Battling Arena’s tunnel, Wilde and the others called him, seemingly wanting to say something.
“No need to pay attention to that guy, just focus on fighting properly today.” Walking at the very front, Ferguillo faintly said, “Also, right now I really shouldn’t be his match. However, you have to remember that for us arcane masters, the battle doesn’t stop at the outcome of this match, it only stops when our lives come to an end.”
“We understand, boss!” Wilde and the others shared a look between themselves. They could all feel their blood surging inside them.
Ferguillo had always been the one who brought them to the national tournament. Ferguillo was the respected spiritual leader for everyone in Iron Forest Academy. For them, Ferguillo’s dignity was even more important than their own.
If one could say that Ferguillo had been protecting them previously, then from now on, they would also use every ounce of strength to protect Ferguillo.
“God of Death Rinsyi! The extraordinarily strong captain of team Golden Stag, it’s really him!”
“The captain of the third team in the whole kingdom, a figure like him actually rushed here to watch the match!”
Rinsyi’s appearance in the stands caused an absolute sensation.
For teams finishing at the forefront of the national tournament, every main member of their rosters was a dazzling celebrity, a legendary figure that they had no hope of seeing in ordinary times.
“Team Agate Lake also came, that’s Nikita!”
“She looks really tall now that she’s in the stands!”
“The most important thing is, her figure is still so fine even when she’s so tall, she’s really so beautiful.”
Another uproar suddenly ran through the stands. Many people noticed many girls and team members of Agate Lake Academy also pouring inside the arena.
After sitting down in the stands, some of the girls from team Agate Lake wound around Sofia and asked, “Captain, do you want Ferguillo and his people to qualify, or Chris and her people to qualify?”
The beautiful Sofia was tall and slender, and one could tell with a single glance her temperament of one coming from a wealthy family. She answered, “Of course I hope Ferguillo can qualify. After all, he’s the one who beat us last year.”
“Captain, they say people can’t make friends if they don’t trade blows, you won’t have fallen in love with him, right? Ferguillo really looks very handsome though.”
“What are you silly girls talking about.”
“Nikita likes Ayrin though. Captain, you guys are in conflict.”
“When did I ever say I liked Ayrin?” Nikita was very tall and looked like a real goddess of war on the field, but she was obviously very shy in ordinary times. A red blush suddenly crept on her snow-white skin as soon as her teammates made fun of her.
“Why are you getting embarrassed, you clearly called Ayrin very interesting when we were coming here.”
“Moss is still the most suitable for Nikita though, in my opinion. That Moss also has the blood of giants, her and Moss are a powerful match made in heaven…”
“No way no way!” Nikita desperately shook her hands all of a sudden.
“Look at that, she wasn’t like this when we talked about Ayrin, but she’s so anxious as soon as we mention Moss. It seems she still likes Ayrin the most.”
“You guys, stop bullying our thin-skinned Nikita alright?”
…
Girls were often the subject of discussion for boys, while girls talked about boys most of the time. While these girls from Agate Lake Academy joked and giggled in the stands, the atmosphere was a little strange in the lounge reserved for the contestants of team Holy Dawn.
“There’s still another team member?”
“Who is it? Why is there another team member popping out all of a sudden?”
Everyone looked at Carter in confusion. They had no idea what Carter meant when he said another team member would be coming.
“Belo?”
Ayrin thought of something all of a sudden and shouted excited, “Teacher Carter, is it Belo?! Did Belo finish his training!”
“Belo, that Impulsive Freshman?” Chris and the others were a little stunned.
Carter nodded with a little smile. “I can’t say he’s done with his training. His training is still ongoing. But today’s match is very important, and the opponent is also a team like Iron Forest Academy, so we have to have some additional insurance. That’s why teacher Rui will take him here.”
After a small pause, Carter became a little more solemn and told them, “For a match like this one with a qualification spot on the line, Rinsyi might not be the only figure from the national tournament who came to watch, so we have to stay as low-key as possible, hide our strength as much as we can. Let’s all act natural when the time comes, don’t let many people feel that Stingham and Belo are extremely unusual.”
