As usual, once the e
The announcer this tieous ancient Chinese costuical itee
This tie wasn’t rando cool breeze of water blowing on our faces
”Great, huh”, Senior said while standing by my side
In front of e was completely filled with deep sea blue water, in addition to waves Behind the audience were eight huge water columns that reached up to the skies In midair was a e, and with a few little fishes playing inside The exact center beneath the water sphere, had a place that rese like a shrine Enshrined within was a white statue of a woman with the lower half of a snake
Between the eight colu a white rainbow that I’ve never seen before Heavy fog continuously descended as it filled the air The entire scene gave off the feeling of a vast white expanse of a dream
A few people appeared on the opposite side of the players' lounge, with the instructor Sinla being ast those I saw
That's right, she's the instructor of their first representative tea in the second representative team before?
”Probably a double instructor” Senior glanced ata tone like it's almost-so-normal-he's-not-surprised-at-all to say, ” This is often seen, if the instructor's ability is indeed good enough”
”Clear Wind Academy's first representative teae as a two-ures suddenly appeared on the other side of the water stage Just like Senior and Gasai, it's a black robe and purple robe pair
Then, I was stunned
That purple robe…
Was the one who found us when Chifuyu used his tracking technique that day
I wanted to tell Senior, only to find that he and Gasai had long since left They reappeared at the other end of the water stage
”Ziray…” I looked around to find that the only one I can turn to for help, is called the five-colored rooster head
”What is it?” The five-colored rooster head looked at me, puzzled
Suddenly I was disin
”Is soain
”That purple robe…” How should I say it? Say that he was the pursuer who chased after us?
But I also know that he was only counter tracking Whether or not he’s a good person, I have no idea However, if I tell the five-colored rooster head about this, he’ll definitely cause a difficult situation
”What about that purple robe?” Following e, the five-colored rooster head issued a big question, ”Do you know hiainst him? Want me to deal with him after the match?”
”No need, thanks” Within a second, I gave up on the thought of asking him to help
I suppose, if it’s Senior and Gasai then there shouldn’t be any problems
While I was hesitating, the un
On the surface of the deep blue water aves, the four cole drop of water on them Beneath both sides appeared different arrays of immense size At that moment, the entire surface of the water suddenly cal everyone’s reflections Not a sound could be heard, even the audience see their breaths as they watched attentively for the next move to be made
I couldn’t see any of their movements Just a split second pause, and Gasai had already corips with the other purple robe atop the shrine The entire surface of the water shook froe ripples to form
The whole arena was silent, and the water slowly subsided
The level of this hts I've seen before There were practically no one, in the audience, who dared tothe suspense, then get beaten up by the people around them
See a ile There shouldn’t be any issues
However, I still feel very concerned aboutSinla in the corridor before, as well as the
Both sides' black robes made no moves They simply stayed where they were and maintained the arrays underneath their feet
”What are those arrays?” I turned around to ask the five-colored rooster head, instinctively feeling that the bright large array should have so the water
The five-colored rooster head looked atabout it It seems like it’s an array that’s able to prevent the opponent fro any incantations Since most black robes and purple robes would secretly use advanced spells during a co that can restrain the the match
Because they were e, I couldn’t see it that clearly
Truthfully, there’s a feeling like seeing ies freeze all over the place It’s over there for ait completely impossible for me to follow their movements
I wonder if they will sell the recordings in video tapes or CDs after the match I should buy one back and watch it in slow motion
“Fúcóng yǔ wǒ de shǐyì, zài dírén miànqián xiàn chū nǐ de zītài” The opponent’s black robe suddenly moved, and as his circular array started to rotate, the surrounding waters slowly churned A golden light drew out behind hied Then as if it was being colored, the figure was clearly beco e rather Western dark green dragon
[T/N: The one who obeys my command, show your stance in front of the enemy]
“Never expected that we’d already see so out a divine beast by the second round” The five-colored rooster head snorted as if disapproving
Divine beast?
I stared at the five-colored rooster head expectantly, waiting for him to explain it to me
I suddenly realized that the disadvantages of not having telepathic cos I wanted to know
Sorry, Senior I’ve wronged you for always scolding you for eavesdropping
It took hiaze The five-colored rooster head talked while watching the match at the same time, “In this world, apart from the races, there’s also the so called familiars, demon beasts, fairy beasts, and divine beasts and whatnot People with high-level abilities would subdue theht-hand er the fa you should take note of” He turned around to look at n a contract that binds one together So the biggest taboo would be to raisefa in order to have suitable abilities, so it’s extremely troublesome in some respects”
Then isn’t that like Pokémon?
It’s just that you can only have one of them
The huge dragon let out a roar
“Xiao Ting”
Standing on the top of the shrine, Gasai, who still has yet to suffer the wrath of the heavens, stretched out his hand A golden-eyed black snake appeared from his palm, then coiled around his shoulders After that it becas
I suppose Xiao Ting isn’t a fa that was created from a cursed incantation
So what kind of familiars do Gasai and Senior have?
I really am a bit curious
The opposing purple robe ju at the no worser than hih that he nearly knocked into the top of the water sphere The crow then sprang out from beside him and expanded An enoron The sky thundered and purple-bluish lightning directly son
I’’s curse arrangement It feels as if a murder weapon had a sharp increase in quality
After that dragon was struck by the lightning, it fell into the water A large spray of water was stirred up Right after, I suspect I saw a suspicious white s The black sky shrank and turned back into a crow hovering in the air
The surrounding audience suddenly exclaimed
Senior, as originally standing in the middle of the array, suddenly disappeared A second later and he had already reappeared on top of the shrine Following his line of sight over, I saw that Gasai, as keeping a steady balance just a while ago, had a sudden loss of velocity and fell down for unknown reasons Right before he crashed onto the top of the shrine, he was caught by Senior, sparing hi his head cracked open
What happened?
Xiao Ting flen, and circled around the two people
“There seems to be a problem on Atlantis Academy’s side…” The voice of the announcer sounded out and I knew that I didn’t think wrongly
So unusual really did happen
Just when I was about to ask what happened, another “dong” sound came by my side—the five-colored rooster head, as previously watching the round and wouldn’t wake up “Ziray?” I quickly bent down to shake him
The five-colored rooster head was covered in cold sweat, with his eyes shut, and seemed to have lost consciousness
“What happened to you?” I started to get nervous
It can’t be that he ate too ?
On stage, Senior raised his hand at the announcer “Atlantis Academy requests a timeout!” Shenny’svoice sounded out amidst the noise of the audience, ” The General assembly has approved of it, you may have a timeout of three minutes The players of both tea area”
Once she finished speaking, both sides sie
By the time I noticed that, Senior had already carried Gasai back to the lounge “Ziray’s also like this?” His voice showed a trace of surprise, a rarely seen fluctuation
“I didn’t kill him!” I quickly retreated and Senior placed Gasai down to the side
“Nonsense!” He coldly gave me thissentence
After putting the two together, Senior took off his black gloves then placed his hands thirty centiht shone beneath his palms
Little orbs of light fell on Gasai's and the five-colored rooster head's faces before disappearing as if they were absorbed
”This is bad, to have fallen for this trick” Senior took away his hands and said in a cold voice
