Chapter 215: An Assembly of Powerful Spectators (And the Symptoms of Face Blindness) (2/2)

“It was indeed a bit of a sudden decision,” Morton replied, revealing a smirk. Standing side by side, the tall and burly Morton was a full half a head taller than the skinny Rowan. After congregating, Morton directly asked Rowan, “So who do you have your eyes on?”

“It seems like none of these fellows from Holy Dawn Academy are going anywhere yet, so I have my eyes on all of them,” Rowan replied, still smiling.

Morton was taken by surprise after which he roared back, “Shameless!”

“Then what about you, old friend?” Rowan chortled as if he wasn’t angry at all.

“All of them!” Morton snorted.

“Indeed. As it is the first time the mainstays of this Holy Dawn Academy team have entered the national tournament, they were all relatively unknown before. Thus, they have yet to be invited into any corps or houses. It’s no surprise that so many famous figures of the various corps and houses have personally come. Ayrin, Chris, and Rinloran have all shown strength completely surpassing those celebrity fighters.”

Right as many people were recovering from the shock of seeing so many legends and drawing a conclusion to their speculations, a huge commotion occurred in the plaza outside of the arena.

“Is it Holy Dawn Academy or Golden Stag Academy’s team that has arrived?”

Just from hearing the cheers, the audience members within the arena immediately guessed that one of the teams had arrived. Indeed, it was Holy Dawn Academy’s team.

“Golden Stag Academy’s team has actually come so early today as well?”

Cries of shock rang out atop the plaza as Golden Stag Academy’s team emerged from the other side not too long after.

“So many people!”

“Rinsyi and his team are also here?”

Ayrin, who had been admiring the size of the crowd from amongst a cluster of Holy Dawn Academy students, also immediately saw the arrival of the Golden Stag Academy team.

“Faster!”

Before Ayrin and the others could even react, Stingham had already squeezed out from the group and quickly run towards Golden Stag Academy’s team.

“Just what does this fellow want to accomplish?”

Afraid that Stingham would cause some kind of trouble before the start of the match and get disqualified again, Ayrin, Chris, and the rest exchanged looks before hurriedly following behind him.

But they could only watch Stingham stopped directly in between Golden Stag Academy’s team and the arena entrance and blocked their path with his hands on his hips.

“What are you doing?” Ayrin couldn’t help but ask after catching up to Stingham.

“Before a fight, don’t we have to lower the opponent’s morale?”

Stingham loudly laughed after replying to Ayrin as he combed his hair and made a pose which he considered handsome before shouting at Rinsyi and his team, “How is it? Today, my wise and godly, and most importantly most handsome, self will be fighting at the second position. Are you all afraid yet?”

“…….” Black lines immediately emerged on the faces of Ayrin and the others.

Many of them nearly stuck their heads in the ground in shame.

Today, Rinsyi was in the center of the Golden Stag Academy team members. His eyes were already narrowed into slits, and he seemed even colder and quiet than usual. Sophia had characterized him as someone who spouted a lot of shit, yet today, he didn’t make a single sound when facing Stingham’s cries.

“Interesting.” A grin appeared on Megan’s alluring face as she observed Stingham.

“Dumbass,” Warlock Hill sneered from the front of the group.

“Before a match, it is forbidden to taunt opponents to try and cause an incident.”

A referee responsible for making sure that the participating teams entered in an orderly fashion immediately walked over and reprimanded Stingham. Afterwards, he motioned towards Chris, “You all will enter first.”

“I apologize Rinsyi. Our teammate was wrong for taunting you. Let us decide everything on the arena!” As captain, Chris gave an apology.

As she spoke, her eyes were fixed on Hill, who was standing at the forefront.

“Is she apologizing to Hill or Rinsyi?” The nearby crowd was confused.

“Does she actually not know who is Rinsyi? This must be on purpose. It must… she must be acting like she doesn’t know who Rinsyi is to humiliate him.”

“Are you not Rinsyi?” Hearing the crowd around her whispering, Chris felt like something wasn’t right. She apologetically explained to Hill, “My face blindness is a bit serious.”

“I am Hill!” Chris’s look of embarrassment and innocence caused Hill to feel like he was going crazy. He couldn’t help but violently nod his head towards Rinsyi behind him as he shouted, “That is Rinsyi!”

“It wasn’t on purpose.”

Chris apologized. Afterwards, she entered into one of the participant’s halls behind her alongside Ayrin and the rest of her team.

“If you are able to step upon the arena, I will make you remember me.” At this time, Rinsyi raised his head as he finally couldn’t resist speaking.

“Hill, I will not be fighting today. However, if there are opportunities in the future, I would be more than willing to have a fight,” Chris turned her head and sincerely replied towards Rinsyi.

“… Hill?”

“Just what kind of face blindness is this? Just a blink of the eye and she is already calling Rinsyi Hill. It must be on purpose!”

The surrounding crowd all nearly slammed their heads into the ground.
