Chapter 226: Ayrin vs. Rinsyi, A Battle of Geniuses!
“She didn’t die from the smell, did she?”
Chris and the other Holy Dawn Academy team members sympathetically looked at Megan, who was still motionless and frothing at the mouth as she was carried offstage by the medical team.
“What an unpredictable weirdo,” Dragon Breath Academy’s team members lamented as they forcefully blew their noses.
“Only Rinsyi remains for Golden Stag Academy.”
Many spectators wanted to mock Golden Stag Academy, but no words came out as the stands descended into a very peculiar atmosphere.
This was the mighty team of Golden Stag Academy, where every member would become a dazzling and renowned arcane master even if they joined a famous corps. Yet currently, they were down to their last person against Holy Dawn Academy.
Furthermore, they would be up against Ayrin, who had managed to defeat a powerhouse existence like Megan without a scratch, something even Morgan and Rinsyi likely couldn’t accomplish.
Would Golden Stag Academy actually be losing to Holy Dawn Academy here?
“Even Megan was… no, I absolutely cannot lose to opponents of this level!”
“He’s only opened two arcane gates… but I have already opened four, how can I lose to him?!”
Amid Golden Stag Academy’s team, two beads of sweat dripped down Rinsyi’s face, but he didn’t notice it at all.
“Ayrin versus Rinsyi!”
Clancy’s voice once again rang through the arena.
This declaration didn’t surprise anyone as the spectators had already realized that Golden Stag Academy was fighting with its full strength ever since the second match.
“What’s with Rinsyi?”
But when Rinsyi didn’t appear atop the stage after Clancy’s declaration, many spectators began to feel like something was wrong.
Several substitutes of Golden Stag Academy’s team paled as they helplessly cried out, “Captain!”
“I am the genius of House Baratheon. With my dragon bloodline and storm eyes, how can I possibly lose to this fellow!”
“I must… I must beat him, I must kill him!”
“Hu,” Rinsyi breathed out. As if he had finally been awakened from a nightmare by the substitutes cries, his breathing returned to normal and he raised his head.
“You have finally been forced onto the stage.”
“Moss, Belo, Ayrin, you all have managed to accomplish it. I thank you all for supporting me after I came out of my own world, you guys have managed to make me proud of myself, and proud of being a member of Holy Dawn Academy’s team.”
“Nikita, we will definitely defeat Rinsyi today! We will defeat Golden Stag Academy and let them know the taste of defeat!”
From beside the stage, Rinloran watched Rinsyi emerge. He took a deep breath as many thoughts coursed through his mind.
“Rinsyi! Have you become afraid? Hurry and come fight me!”
Upon seeing Rinsyi walk so slowly towards the stage, Ayrin’s fighting spirit ignited as loudly called Rinsyi out from atop the stage, causing the students of Golden Stage Academy to become even more silent.
“I will kill you!” Rinsyi powerfully shouted as he violently raised his head.
His words left many spectators completely shocked.
“Warning, you are not allowed to try and intimidate your opponent!”
Clancy’s face immediately darkened as he admonished Rinsyi. Yet at the same time, he felt as if Rinsyi would actually be trying to kill during this match.
“What is this fellow thinking?”
“He said he was going to kill Ayrin?”
“What’s he thinking? Has water gotten into his head? Even if he really plans on killing Ayrin, he can’t shout it out loud like this.”
The stands abruptly burst into an uproar.
“If you really want to kill me, then you must be prepared to pay with your own life.”
Against everyone’s expectations, Ayrin didn’t show any semblance of fear after Rinsyi’s declaration. It seemed like it had only further ignited his fighting spirit as he raised his fist towards Rinsyi and shouted, “I’m not an inexperienced arcane master who is afraid of fighting with their life on the line!”
If it had been someone else who had said these words and proclaimed themselves a brave warrior who had experienced battles of life and death, the spectators might have subconsciously considered them conceited. But as Ayrin said these words, the spectators couldn’t help but think back to the battle of the Holy Water Tower.
Everyone could imagine just how perilous the battle which resulted in the collapse of the Holy Water Tower was!
Indeed, Ayrin, who had been carried into the Office of Special Affair’s infirmary to be resuscitated, wasn’t trying to bluff or boast when he said these words, he was simply stating the facts!
……
……
The entire arena had been silenced by Ayrin’s words.
Even Rinsyi said nothing more as he reached his starting position.
Ayrin silently stared at Rinsyi, his face full of an expression which clearly said, “Let us fight, I will defeat you.”
“Let’s wake up here! We must be vigilant,” Clancy quietly said to the two assistant referees.
In the prior matches, if he felt like there might be some danger, he had only expressed it through a stern glance. But in this match, both participants were people who might become pinnacle arcane masters within the Kingdom of Eiche. If anything were to happen to either one, it would be a huge loss for the kingdom.
“Start the match!”
With Clancy’s cry, the fight between Ayrin and Rinsyi finally began!
“Blades of the Northern Wind!”
Before anyone could even react, three pale blue wind blades had already descended towards Ayrin.
