Chapter 40: Rookie Tournament
Fang He's blurred teary eyes stared at the small round ball tightly, letting the tears keep slipping down and dripping on it. Wang Yan and the three of them all looked at Fang He quietly and didn't bother him. The boss was even more exaggerated, his breathing stopped, and he leaned lightly against the door, observing the crying boy in front of him.
"I'm sorry for making everyone laugh. After a while, Fang He hurriedly wiped away his tears and said to everyone a little shyly.
"It seems that this kid is suffering a lot in his heart," the boss said secretly in his heart, and then asked with a smile. "How about this sword? If you don't think it fits, I'll make you another one. ”
"Huh?" everyone exclaimed, is this still the boss of the business? It is clearly the care and love of an elder for a younger generation. Fang He also hurriedly thanked. "Boss, this sword is good, thank you for making it so perfect. As he spoke, he touched the ball on the sword.
"Child," the boss smiled slightly, "don't let yourself be too tired, you have friends, you can let them share the burden." Although pressure is motivation, too much pressure can be overwhelming. ”
Everyone felt inexplicable when they heard this, only Fang He looked at the boss gratefully and nodded heavily.
"Hurry up and give the sword a name. Looking at this oppressive atmosphere, Wang Yan hurriedly diverted the topic.
"Well, yes, it should be a name. Zhou Tian on the side also hurriedly echoed.
Fang He looked at everyone with some embarrassment, then looked at the long sword in his hand, and slowly lowered his head.
"My sword is called the Wind and Snow Sword," Qin Xiao on the side took the lead in saying. "The wind, free, everywhere. Static as a slight negative, moving as a hurricane. And the sword body is as white as snow, so it is called the Wind and Snow Sword. Everyone nodded and expressed their satisfaction.
"Destroy the sky!" Fang He suddenly roared. Just when everyone was puzzled, Fang He continued. "My sword is called the destruction of the heavens. ”
"Well, yes, very domineering name. The blacksmith boss nodded in response. Naturally, there was no objection from the crowd.
"I don't think you two little ones have rings yet, here's for you. "In fact, yesterday, the boss had already discovered that Qin Xiao and Fang He didn't have space rings, so they deliberately made two. The space ring is actually very troublesome to make, and it consumes a considerable amount of sword energy and spiritual power, and in the entire empire, there are only three blacksmiths who can make space rings, so the price of the ring is ridiculously high. Seeing the two rings in the blacksmith's hand, the four of them were stunned. Why is a blacksmith who doesn't know each other so good to himself?
"Master, we have asked you to help build two swords, and the money has not yet been calculated, and we may not be able to afford this ring. Wang Yan hurriedly said, although he also wanted to get a space ring for Qin Xiao and Fang He, but that thing didn't just get it.
"Naturally, you have to give the money to build the sword, a total of three hundred gold coins. And these two rings were given to them. The blacksmith smiled, pointed at Qin Xiao and Fang He and said calmly.
"But this random ring is more than three hundred gold coins, I'm afraid it's not good?" Wang Yan said cautiously. And Qin Xiao and Fang He also nodded, saying that they couldn't accept the ring, while Zhou Tian was fine, holding his hands on his chest, and indifferently looking at Wang Yan and them talking there.
"It's okay, I said send is send. The space of this ring is not large, only ten square meters, so you should not take it to heart. The blacksmith said, obviously Wang Yan's resignation made him a little unhappy.
Sensing that the boss was a little displeased, Qin Xiao and Fang He had no choice but to accept the space ring.
Wang Yan shook his head helplessly, but there was nothing he could do. "Boss, this is three hundred gold coins, you click on it. Then, Wang Yan took out the gold coin and handed it to the blacksmith boss.
The boss didn't even look at it, and with a wave of his hand, the gold coin in front of him disappeared.
"Boss, can you take the liberty of asking your name?" Wang Yan suddenly asked as he was leaving.
"My name is Nameless," the blacksmith boss replied indifferently.
"Nameless Master, thank you for your help. The four of them said goodbye to the so-called nameless boss with gratitude and walked towards the academy.
Looking at the backs of Wang Yan and the four of them, the corners of the nameless boss's mouth turned up slightly, and an imperceptible smile flashed......
Early the next morning, all the students gathered again in the arena to celebrate the rookie competition once in a year. Whether it is a new student or an old student who stays, they all raise their hands and are full of passion.
The competition arena is a specially built venue of the college, which is about the same size as the comprehensive playground, but the switch is very different. The arena is concave as a whole, and there is a small round platform in the center, which is only about 15 meters in size, and the round platform is specially prepared for the teacher who is the referee. Around the small round platform are four round platforms of the same size, with a diameter of 80 meters, all made of special materials that are recoverable and used for competitions. Each stage is surrounded by a transparent protective shield to prevent accidental injuries to the audience. In addition to these five round platforms, the rest are all seats for viewing, and the seats are higher than the first, forming a natural spiral dimple.
Although the sword qi of the freshmen is not high, many students are very concerned, because many students always feel that their swordsmanship is flawed during practice. And this rookie competition can undoubtedly find some inspiration in it, which is why there are no empty seats.
Before eight o'clock, twelve figures flew up to the central platform one after another. Immediately after, the still familiar figure appeared in the center of the round platform in an instant.
Lu Chen looked humble and glanced at the students around him with a faint smile. The look in the eyes of the students who were waiting for them could clearly capture that hint of enthusiasm and passion. At this time, the fiery red sun has already climbed the branches, and the reddish sunlight falls from the sky, swaying on every face, which looks strange and bright.
"Students," the deep voice still passed in the ears of every student, and the playground suddenly fell silent. "First of all, we would like to extend our warmest welcome to the new students who have stayed. As he spoke, Lu Chen took the lead in clapping his palms, his face slightly flushed, indicating the excitement and excitement in his heart at this time.
Under the leadership of Lu Chen, the entire playground suddenly became boiling and jubilant. The loud jubilant sounds came and went, and kept drifting towards the distant sky. All the students were full of excitement in their eyes. Some of the freshmen were so excited that they shed sincere tears, apparently they deeply felt how lucky they were to enter this big family through the retest.
"Next, it's going to be the rookie tournament that we're all looking forward to. Lu Chen's hands pressed slightly on the void and said sensationally. The field was jubilant again, and many students had begun to shout and shout to express their inner happiness.
"Next, I will announce the relevant rules, and ask new and old students to pay attention to them. Lu Chen half-squinted his eyes and said indifferently, although he spoke in a consultative tone, all the students felt that the words were full of irresistible power. The audience also fell silent in an instant.
Lu Chen smiled faintly, obviously pleased with the students' reactions, and continued: "The so-called rookie competition is a friendly competition used to learn from each other and promote each other, so new students should not be too burdened. The old students, on the other hand, have to watch from the audience, and they are not allowed to go on stage for any reason to make trouble, otherwise they will be expelled directly! There are four competition venues here, so four groups of games can be played at the same time. Our tournament is still a knockout tournament, and both sides of the tournament are selected by draw. The competition is so important that we hope everyone will be humble to each other. Lu Chen paused slightly and continued, "Of course, the competition also has rewards. The top three students will receive a weapon or other item of their choice for everyone by the dean himself. Students from the 4th to the 10th place will receive personal guidance from the Dean. ”
"Alright, that's all for that, now, the rookie tournament has officially begun!" Lu Li suddenly roared with sonorous emotion.
As Lu Chen's words ended, the twelve teachers who were referees divided into groups of three and sat in front of the corresponding competition round. As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, he flew out of the round platform and disappeared outside the arena. In her place, she was a relatively young female teacher, with a delicate face, her long hair draped straight down to her waist, a pale green dress on her upper body, tightly wrapped around the feminine hallmark, and a white leather skirt on the lower body, revealing her snow-white thighs.
As soon as the young female teacher came on stage, she immediately attracted a burst of sighs, smiled slightly, and said, "Now the game starts, the first group: Cheng Kun vs. Yang Hao, the second group: Fang He vs. Ma Long, and the third group ......" Because of the amplification effect in this arena, there is no need to say too loudly in the center, and everyone present can hear it.
In the center of the crowd, four eight or nine-year-old boys sat down in a row, and it was Wang Yan and them. Unfortunately, Fang He became the first one to play, and the other three cheered for him, Fang He smiled faintly and headed towards the second competition table.
Ma Long was already standing on the second platform, holding a silver long sword, waiting for Fang He to appear. However, soon, Fang He squeezed through the crowd, walked onto the second platform, and stood opposite Ma Long. When Fang He entered the round platform, a transparent light mask quickly rose around the round platform, and the outside and inside suddenly became extremely quiet, it seemed that this light mask could not only isolate the sword qi, but also the sound, so as to avoid the appearance of cheating.
Ma Long glanced at Fang He and smiled disdainfully. But Fang He kept standing on the side of the round platform, not moving at all, and his disdain for Ma Long was as if he hadn't seen it.
Seeing Fang He like this, Ma Long's eyes were horizontal, and he instantly raised his silver long sword and slashed straight at Fang He.

Two more to everyone, a lot of support.
