Chapter 123 – Emperor’s Son-in-law (1/2)

Just like that, the second round of the competition ended.

The warrior department was the biggest loser in this time’s competition.

Shen DaiYing lost and Lin Xiao successfully advance, and will face Caseasr in the finals.

This meant that in this time’s intramural selection competition, the warrior department got completely wiped out, and the top two were both students from the magic department.

This kind of result angered Momm to the point of insomnia, not just him, but all the students were equally shocked.

After the duel, the fact that Lin Xiao knew chantless instant cast spread like wildfire, everyone was discussing about how Lin Xiao was able to learn it.

Was it the god’s decree? If he was protected by the Goddess, was he the one selected by the Gods? Why did Lin Xiao, who was thought of as a S class muddler, stubbornly defeat Shen DaiYing fair and square today?

What’s more, not only did he win, but he also displayed horrifying powerhis robust magic power, precise control, and the chantless instant cast technique.

What was going on? How come no one’s heard of how powerful he was before?

Finally, they got an answer. According to Rosie Childe’s insider information, the reason Lin Xiao was able to use that technique was due to the fact that he’s from the Eastern tribe and knew of a secret technique that helped break through levels.

So it was a secret technique from the Eastern tribe! The students came to a realization and became more respectful of Lin Xiao’s identity.

Of course those were all lies.

After the match, Lin Xiao specifically looked for Rosie and made her leak that information. Lin Xiao knew that if it was insider information that Rosie revealed, everyone would believe it without any doubt.

Just as expected, the restlessness from the match died down, Lin Xiao made it to the finals and obtained the qualifications to participate in the Academy’s Tournament. As for fighting Caesar, he didn’t really care, since he already achieved his goals, it didn’t matter who won.

Lin Xiao defeated Shen DaiYing, honored the promise he made with Rosie and successfully completed the first step of their operation, and at the same time decreased the distance between him and Shen DaiYing… but he wasn’t happy.

Because after the match, Elena said something to him.

“That woman, will be the death of you.”

…

Winterless City

Lin Xiao’s home

Tomorrow was the final match, today Lin Xiao could laze around at home. However, he still had another important mission… to interrogate Elena!

“What? The Saint called the Snow Witch is coming to Winterless City tomorrow?” Lin Xiao was shocked.

According to Elena, she coincidentally saw the notice when she was shopping for food a couple of days ago, and tomorrow, that Saint would officially transfer to the Winterless City diocese, and would hold a ceremony at the Holy Light Church.

Was Snow and Snow Witch the same person? Lin Xiao used to be sure they weren’t, but not so much now.
