Early the next morning, the Secret Arena was as busy as yesterday.
The four hosts have already begun giving exciting warm-up speeches.
The audience is also paying close attention. You must know that today's defense battle is not only a competition of strength, but also a psychological game.
This may be one of the reasons why the competition rules are set as they are.
Not only can the strength of each contestant be fully demonstrated, but also the highlights of each class can be fully displayed.
For example, on the first day, the fierce battle between evenly matched opponents allows people to see the average strength of the top genius arcanists.
The second day was a fierce confrontation between intelligence and strength. Of course, the focus was mainly on the aspect of ‘intelligence’.
The third day will naturally be the climax of the battle for seats in the school, and the true number one of the young generation of the Conjuration School and the leader of the school will be determined!
The three days of battles are interlocking and progressing step by step. It’s no wonder that every time the academy communicates, the audience is full!
As time went by, people from the top ten colleges also arrived one after another and entered their rest areas.
Interested people noticed that Lando from Gastro Academy still hadn't arrived, which made the audience talk a lot, and all kinds of speculations were flying all over the place for a while.
"Hey, we noticed that Lando from Gastro Academy still hasn't arrived. Did he really oversleep?! Haha!"
"Well, I think it's very possible. Otherwise, it's impossible to avoid fighting."
"Alas, you have to provide evidence when you speak. Be careful that Mr. Lando will sue you for slander."
"Haha, just kidding. After all, he is a talented arcanist with so many rumored achievements. Although I don't know which ones are true and which ones are false, this Lando has some strength and cannot avoid fighting!"
"Let us also pray here that Lando-san did not have an accident, but simply overslept."
“I hope this ‘Sleeping Beauty’ will not miss today’s game again!”
"Haha! 'Sleeping Beauty'! It's really an apt description, but I don't know if he needs a kiss from the 'prince' when he wakes up!"
"..."
Perhaps Lando still didn't come, and the host was not as cautious as he was on the first day. Instead, he teased him in various ways, as if Lando had really become a clown.
The roar of laughter from the audience seemed to indicate that the hosts had a lively atmosphere.
But these words really made everyone in Gastro Academy frown.
My sister Filia said angrily: "Damn it, how could they say that to Brother Landan?"
Simon said calmly: "Don't worry, after Lando arrives and shows his strength, all rumors and rumors will be solved. These are all trivial matters."
Stellan also said: "Yes, that kid will definitely surprise everyone."
During the chat, the venue suddenly changed. Ten circular arenas rose up in sequence. The audience's voices gradually became quieter. Everyone knew that today's exciting showdown was about to begin!
"Oh, it seems that the time has come. Today's battle will be more exciting, so please invite our champions to come on stage!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, you could hear the needle drop in the audience, and everyone was looking at something expectantly.
"Pa!~"
This is the sound of boots hitting the ground. It is hard to imagine that in this arena that can accommodate millions or even tens of millions of people, such a slight sound can reach the ears of every spectator.
A young man stood out from the crowd. He had black hair, a handsome face, and strong but gentle facial features. He was not tall and strong, but well-proportioned. His clothes were not gorgeous, but quite elegant and decent.
The young man's face was calm, and he walked slowly and slowly, but he exuded a confident and high-spirited aura that was getting stronger and stronger, as if what he was going to was not the arena at this time, but the throne that belonged to him!
He is the first person in the new generation of the Conjuration School and the leader of the school - Chenglong!
Countless eyes looked at him, including the admiration and admiration of the audience, the admiration and envy of his classmates, the recognition and joy of the strong seniors, and mixed with malice and jealousy.
Chenglong can feel these things, but he doesn't care. He has his own goals and persistence in his heart. As long as he moves in that direction, all this is just a side product that will inevitably appear on the road he is on.
The moment he stood on the first stage and appeared in the ring, countless people chanted his name...
"Ride the dragon!"
"Ride the dragon!"
"Ride the dragon!"
"..."
At this moment, all other contestants were eclipsed.
When the cheering subsided, the other defenders stepped onto the stage one after another. Although it was not as enthusiastic as Chenglong, it still caused a lot of small-scale cheers. After all, they had attracted countless fans in the past two days.
As the host shouted the words to start the ring, today's battle officially started!
A fierce showdown between intelligence and strength is about to begin!
…………
At the same time, in the Gastro Academy magic tower community and training magic tower.
The figure of the black spirit slowly emerged, and it had already felt that the illusory power projected in the training room where Lando was located was rapidly weakening, which was a sign that the latter was about to leave seclusion.
Sure enough, a moment later, the door to the training room opened and a figure walked out leisurely.
"Whoever wakes up from the big dream first will know it in my life!"
Then Lando saw the black spirit who greeted him with cold eyes.
Lando: It's all in vain to act cool and show off to the blind!
Hei Ling: What's going on with this guy? He kept me waiting for so long and said some fancy words. Is he sick? He's so hungry and wants to eat!
They looked at each other for a long time, and finally Lando broke the silence and said: "Well, although I missed the first day of the game, I should still be able to make it to the second day, right?"
Black Spirit hooked his fingers, and shot out a ray of power, connecting the communication image in the training room, and what was playing on it was the scene of the secret arena at this time.
Lando looked at it for a moment, nodded and said, "It seems it's not too late."
Just as he calculated.
Lando's decision not to participate in the first day of the competition was not simply (?) to show off. When he was studying advanced world rules and space arcana, he unexpectedly entered a state similar to an epiphany. Not only did his research progress greatly accelerate, but he could also easily
Gain insight into aspects that you normally wouldn’t notice.
By the time the first day of competition started, he was actually close to the end, but in the end he was reluctant to let go of this state and chose to skip the first day of competition.
Anyway, the advantage established by three wins on the first day is only useful to those in the second tier, so it doesn't matter to him.
"Let's go over, I guess Teacher Steele is also impatient." Lando said with a chuckle.
Black Spirit nodded, and a faint light enveloped him. After the light dissipated, one person and one spirit disappeared.
…………
On the resting table of Gastro Academy, a black light flashed. Lando, who had been "offline" for a long time, finally "retrieved his password" and successfully returned.
At this moment, he didn't notice the people at Gastro Academy who were cheering in surprise, but followed his instinct and turned his attention to a certain arena.
On Arena No. 1, Chenglong, who had completed the achievement of being unchallenged for an hour, was preparing to step off the stage and return to the rest area of his college.
For those powerful students who are expected to compete for one of the ten seats, Chenglong is not a good challenge target, because it will make them lose one challenge in vain.
But for those students who are weak and have no chance of qualifying for the ten seats, Chenglong is the first choice.
For them, they will lose anyway, so there is no need to have high expectations. If they are lucky enough to survive one and a half moves, it will be a huge gain.
It's a pity that whenever someone is young, enthusiastic or ambitious and wants to challenge Chenglong, he will completely lose all confidence and will at the moment he is about to enter the ring, and will no longer be able to muster the courage to fight, and in the end he can only be dejected.
leave.
Therefore, until the one hour period expires, no one can refresh his continuous defense time.
Just when he was calmly preparing to leave the ring, he turned his gaze in a certain direction out of some instinct.
The eyes of Lando and Chenglong met at this moment. As the two looked at each other, an invisible ripple seemed to appear in the void, but this layer of ripples was smoothed out the moment it appeared, without disturbing anyone.
people.
After a few seconds, the two men's eyes changed. Chenglong walked down the ring calmly, while Lando responded to the cheers and complaints of his companions with a smile.
After a while of commotion, Lando came to Dean Steele and said apologetically: "Teacher Steele, I'm sorry for causing you to worry."
Dean Steele said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I believe you have your own considerations." After speaking, he looked Lando up and down and said: "It seems that you have gained a lot this time, go for it!"
Lando smiled and nodded, without any further hesitation, he randomly chose the nearest arena to launch the challenge.
After Lando left, Simon suppressed the smile on his face and sighed.
My sister Sophia came forward and said softly: "Senior Simon, why don't you ask Senior Lando for help? You know he will definitely help you."
The few people who were beaming with joy were all stunned when they heard what their sisters Sophia and Simon said, and they didn't know why.
At this time, Simon had regained his previous gentleness and confidence, and explained to his sister Sophia: "It's useless, look over there."
Everyone looked in the direction that Saimen pointed, and saw a young man looking at them in the stands somewhere. When he saw the eyes of everyone, he did not have stage fright, but smiled and nodded in greeting.
"That person is...Senior Simon's opponent in the second battle?!" Doug exclaimed.
"That's right." Simon nodded: "Except for those who I am sure can't defeat him, he is one of the few people who I can't figure out. I originally wanted to test him during the second battle, but after understanding my intentions, he
Decisively choose to admit defeat."
Simon retracted his gaze and continued: "If possible, I certainly hope that Lando can consume the opponent's challenge times, but it is a pity that Lando appeared too early, and everyone who noticed me, including that guy, will definitely not
Lando's existence will not be taken into account, so for me, the advantage Lando brings is equivalent to none. If I forcefully entrust him, others may still take advantage of me."
The newbies blinked in confusion, not expecting that there were so many twists and turns.
Looking at his worried companions, Simon smiled and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I didn't take into account the advantages brought by Lando. No matter what, I will try my best!"
Seeing how confident Simon was, everyone couldn't help but cheer up and cheer loudly for their senior.
With Lando's arrival, many viewers and hosts noticed him.
"Hey, look who's here. Has the 'Sleeping Beauty' of Gastro Academy finally woke up?"
"Hey, that's right. I just don't know if this 'Sleeping Beauty' woke up on her own or was kissed by a certain 'prince'?!"
The host's ridicule made the audience burst into laughter. Lando, who had already stepped onto the ring and was about to say a few words to his opponent, stumbled and almost fell down. His little head was filled with questions. He didn't know when he had an extra sleep.
Nicknames like "Beauty".
Black question mark face.jpg
With a slightly stiff smile on his face, he remembered the faces of the four hosts. Don't get me wrong, Lando is not doing this for revenge. After all, he is not a stingy person who will retaliate. His atmosphere and
Tolerance is something that everyone can see!
The opponent's strength didn't seem to be weak, but it didn't matter to Lando. After only a few rounds of fighting, his opponent decided to admit defeat with an unlucky look on his face, which left Lando a little stunned.
At this time, Lando had no idea what Semen's powerful class needed to consider, and he had never thought about it. For him, this kind of ring battle was simple and boring, and he just needed to keep winning.
The next ten opponents were all weak. Lando did not directly kick them out without leaving any room, but won after a symbolic battle, so that it took more than two hours to win.
Enough to qualify for ten games.
The moment the host announced that Lando had confirmed his quota, he was keenly aware that the atmosphere of the entire venue had changed.
If it was gentle and drizzly just now, a bit like friendship first and competition second, now it is the calm before the storm, and a depressing atmosphere begins to permeate, as if a storm will come at any time.
For many people, when Chenglong and Lando, two big sharks that can muddy the water at any time, leave the shore, the next step is the real battle!
Although most of the audience didn't understand yet, the knowledgeable hosts knew what was going on. They even noticed the sudden smell of gunpowder in the air. They immediately changed their previous entertainment style, quickly ended the awkward conversation, and turned into technical skills.
The host started explaining passionately.
After Lando returned to the rest area, Simon just nodded slightly to him and once again set his sights on the eight remaining arenas in the field. He needed to collect as much data as possible while analyzing the movements of those opponents.
The new juniors and juniors are also standing by and waiting. Although Simon can't rely on Lando's power, the number of challenges from other juniors is within his calculation and utilization range.
For example, when someone is about to complete the one-hour unchallenged achievement, he sends a junior to challenge and refresh his time. These are all basic operations.
