Chapter 189: Joining the team! (2/2)
Almost everyone in team Holy Dawn had been under the impression that Rinloran was someone particularly quiet and low-key, and also someone who hated fighting.
Rinloran’s current voice and attitude suddenly made Moss and the others totally dumbstruck.
Rinloran’s face was even a little twisted. Carter looked at him and didn’t say anything. He merely patted his shoulder and nodded.
“Ayrin really didn’t misread you.”
Chris couldn’t repress a sudden faint smile just then.
She looked at Rinloran and stretched her fist. “Welcome! Let’s fight together and defeat Silver Trout! Defeat Golden Stag!”
…
…
“One thousand and three… One thousand and four… One thousand and five…”
In an empty training gym inside the infirmary, covered in sweat from head to toe, Ayrin was jumping like a leaping frog over a wall, his hands behind his back as he did his recovery exercises.
“I wonder if Sophia and the others won…”
“The match should be over by now. I really want to go and watch.”
“Damnit… I forgot the count. Oh well, I’ll start again from one thousand.”
Ayrin mumbled under his breath now and then while doing his recovery exercises. He couldn’t help but look in the direction of the arena, looking like he had trouble containing the itch to be there.
Something shadowed a strand of sunlight at the exit of the gym all of a sudden. Liszt figure appeared in Ayrin’s sight.
Ayrin suddenly stopped. He reached Liszt in two three jumps and hurried to ask, “Teacher Liszt! How was the match!”
“They lost four-five.”
Liszt looked at him with a lazy air and directly told him, “The first four fighters for Golden Stag Academy were all substitutes, but Rinsyi put himself last. He beat Sophia and Nikita all by himself. He seriously wounded Nikita and Sophia. They’ve both been sent here for medical treatment.”
“Four five? They almost won!” Ayrin said in a daze. “They were actually wounded so badly… Rinsyi, just how strong is that guy?”
“He opened four arcane gates, and he’s grasped at least two domain-types taboo skills,” Liszt said. “So it’s very troublesome to beat him even for a monster like you, because the level of your arcane particles is far below his. Also, domain-type arcane skills need four arcane gates to use. There’s no way for you to learn and use them right now. So if you were to meet him in the tournament, you still can’t counter his domain-type skills.”
“Domain-type arcane skills have always been the strongest among all the arcane skills. Rinsyi, that guy, he actually learned two of them already. No wonder he looks so arrogant.” Ayrin took a deep breath, the fire of his fighting spirit burning in his eyes.
“I have good news for you.” Liszt looked at him and his fighting spirit that seemed to burn fiercer the stronger the opponent was. He couldn’t help but smile. “Rinloran officially joined the academy team.”
“What, Rinloran joined the team?” Ayrin immediately jumped with joy. His head even almost crashed against the gym’s ceiling.
“His relationship with Nikita is apparently pretty close. Rinsyi used a skill to torment Nikita, so he actually charged into the field and made one of those elven Blood Vow against Rinsyi. He swore he was going to defeat Rinsyi,” Liszt said with a lazy smile.
“How hot-blooded!”
His eyes wide open, Ayrin laughed heartily. “Now our team Holy Dawn is becoming even stronger!”
“Teacher Liszt!” Ayrin suddenly shouted even louder.
“What?” Liszt looked at him a little strangely.
“We’re going up against Silver Trout Academy next round already!”
“We can only qualify by defeating them. That’s the only way we can run into Rinsyi!”
“I have to go to the tournament field no matter what, even if I’m only a substitute and don’t fight in the match. It’s really too painful otherwise, I definitely won’t be able to bear it!”
Ayrin kept shouting.
Liszt slightly hesitated for a moment.
“Alright then.” He pinched the bridge of his nose. “A team at the level of Silver Trout Academy isn’t something you can run into everyday either… It would be regrettable if you can’t watch a match like that.”
“Since that’s the case, you be careful in the next few days. Don’t secretly add more to your training regimen. If your condition’s alright… when the time comes to fight against Silver Trout Academy, I’ll let you appear in team Holy Dawn!”
“Teacher Liszt, you’re simply great!”
Ayrin directly rushed in Liszt’s arms with a woahah.
“Don’t be so excitable, alright? It’s very easy for others to misunderstand like this, get it?” Liszt looked at Ayrin with a helpless expression. He couldn’t help but smile.
“Next match against Silver Trout, I really can’t wait for it.”
