The Next Day

Loran Academy

The first round of the knockout competition was going to start tomorrow.

Through the filtering of the group competitions, there were a total of 8 people that successfully advanced to the knockout competition. This included Lin Xiao, Caesar, Shen DaiYing and Rosie from the magic department, and Sam and three others from the warrior department. These 8 will undergo three rounds of 1v1 knockout, the two that come out on top will represent Loran Academy at the “Eileen 18th Annual Academy Tournament” in a month.

As for Caesar, since his dream was to become the hero, he would have to get first place. As for Lin Xiao, he set a small goal for him self.

He should properly assist Caesar into first place and then he just has to get second place to fill the quota for the competition.

However, getting second place wasn’t an easy thing to do.

None of the students that successfully advanced were to be trifled with. Even if it was Lin Xiao, he would have to expend some effort to make it to the finals.

Speaking of the levels of the competitors, in this short period of time, everyone’s levels had changed.

As for Caesar, he relied on his heaven defying natural talent, training both martial arts and magic, and had arrived to the fifth level for both. It’s said that he will soon be able to grasp a fusion skill that combined both magic and battle skills. His progress was extremely quick, and it should be no problem for him to take first place.

As for Rosie, she had been working very hard in order to catch up to Caesar. Apparently, lots of guys had spent big bucks to buy her a lot of expensive medicines to raise her magic level, like dragon bones powder, phoenix bile, ice toad pills and so on. It allowed Lin Xiao to experience how one could do anything as long as they had money… So, although she may not have the best talent, by taking a lot of medicine, her improvement speed was not slow either. She was now advanced fourth level, just a bit before breaking through to the fifth level, quickly following behind Caesar.

As for princess Shen DaiYing, her strength was a complete mystery, she has yet to reveal her true strength; however, according to her behavior she should be a warrior. Since she had such a frightening speed and sword skills, it was also probably at least fifth level or above, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to destroy the three brothers swords in one strike and also beat up Caesar while they were practicing.

As for Lin Xiao, to the public, Lin Xiao was a fourth level just like Rosie, but actually, because of magic accumulation through sleep, he was already intermediate sixth level, a genuine advanced magician, he was also almost at the level of the magic teachers.

The only problem was… being too high level was also a hassle, during the next competition he had to defeat his opponent while hiding his true strength, it really will be tough on him.

…

“Erhrm… students, the first round of the knockout competition will begin tomorrow, so anyone interested can spectate, then… see you tomorrow.”

After the morning classes ended, Lin Xiao was still spread out on his table sleeping, while Elena was standing next to him with a cold face, pretending like she was a statue.

Originally, Elena was supposed to go shopping like usual, and not follow Lin Xiao to class. But strangely, Lin Xiao took the initiative today to ask her to go with him to class, Elena didn’t understand why.

She didn’t tell Lin Xiao about what happened yesterday, neither did she tell him about what Sam told her to tell him, who is she kidding? How could she let Lin Xiao raise his vigilance? She looked forward to Lin Xiao’s negligence, and getting his legs broken by Sam during the competition!

The more Lin Xiao underestimated his opponent, the more likely he’ll lose, and the happier she will be!

Elena was currently imagining what kind of methods Sam would use to defeat Lin Xiao, but suddenly a handsome guy was walking towards them.

“Hey, Lin Xiao, wake up! Your opponent for the next round is Sam, right?” Caesar knocked on Lin Xiao’s desk and pulled him out of his dreams.

“Mm… that’s him.” Lin Xiao rubbed his weary eyes, still lying on his desk not wanting to get up, then turned his head and asked, “Caesar, do you know him?”

“Ah yeah, I know him.” Caesar nodded.

Strictly speaking, he wasn’t friends with Sam, but they weren’t enemies either. Their relationship was very subtle, maybe they could be called “destined rivals”.

Although Caesar doesn’t admit it, that’s what everyone else believed. One was the flower of the magic department, the handsome and cool magic swordsman Caesar, the other was the head hoodlum from the warrior department, Hurricane Swordsman Sam, the two were incompatible like fire and water, and were destined rivals.

The two each represented the strongest within their own departments, the discussion about who was stronger between them has never stopped. Everyone had hoped that they would meet each other during the competition, and decide the victor there.

But before that, Sam had to beat his opponent in the first round, someone that muddled into the knockout competition through luck, Lin Xiao.

“Lin Xiao, don’t underestimate Sam, although everyone treats him as the head hoodlum, he isn’t like those other hoodlums!” Caesar patiently explained to Lin Xiao.

Although Sam was known as the boss of the warrior department and had a lot of underlings, he didn’t care about anything but training, but he also hated losing face, so there were a lot that used his name to cause trouble, which caused him a lot of needless inconveniences.

“So you’re saying that he’s a good hoodlum and not like those other bad ones?” Hearing that, Lin Xiao made an assessment, “No wonder he never did anything to Elena yesterday, made me worry for nothing.”

Yesterday, Sam was angered by what Elena said but still never did anything to her, it was clear that he wasn’t a regular hoodlum and was tolerant.

Lin Xiao’s mutterings landed in Elena’s ears, and shocked her.

“Lin Xiao, h-how do you know I met Sam yesterday? I clearly never told you about it!” Elena glared at him with her blood red eyes and interrogated him.
