Chapter 43 Abstentions

Aitch took the place of Kylo, who was in a weakened state, and opened the door to welcome Leah and An'an, who brought in a not-so-good news.

Lore's next opponent is An An.

Suddenly, there was a sudden silence in Kylo's room.

It stands to reason that this news is not unexpected, because so far, each group of matchups has been decided by draw, and Lore may meet Diman in advance, or he may meet Keren who defeated Kylo, and naturally he may also face An An.

If possible, of course, Lore doesn't want to meet An An so early, and if her team members can advance to one more round, then of course she will be happier.

However, the current situation means that only one of the two people can stay, and the difference between the top 16 and the top 8 is still very big.

Kylo hesitated for a moment, then raised his head to look at An An: "An An......"

An An smiled and waved her hand: "Ah! I know, I'm going to abstain! Besides, this was originally a plan made in advance, wasn't it?"

"But ......" Lore was still a little reluctant, just like the previous time in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, it was clear that An An entered the hall one step earlier than Lore, but the benefits were all to Lore.

An An didn't care at all: "Luoer, why do you want to do so much! First of all, if it weren't for Leah, I wouldn't have bothered to participate in this competition, besides, the artifact 'Edge' is in your hands, is there a better reason than this?"

Lore let out a sigh of relief and nodded, "Okay! I know, I'll leave it to me!"

"Then you're going to abstain from the next game?" Nolans asked curiously.

An An said strangely: "Otherwise?"

"Aren't you afraid of being called shady by the audience?"

"Why do you care so much! Standing on the stage and enduring the filthy gaze of those stinky men! I've had enough!"

Nolans: "...... Can you say that to me, can you not say this?"

An An snorted: "Because you are the same as those stinky men, your eyes are too lewd!"

"How can you compare me to those bastards! I'm one of the few decent men in the world!"

Nolans retorted solemnly, but his eyes unconsciously aimed at An An's calves, he felt that although this An An was a little shorter, the proportions of those legs were quite perfect.

An An's eyes flashed with anger, and his mouth immediately recited the summoning spell of the stone giant.

Nolans was startled and hurriedly hid behind Edge, who saw this and said helplessly: "Okay, don't mess around!"

Leah also helped, "That's it, Nolans, you settle down! Listen to what Kylo has to say!"

Leah's trust in Kylo is no less than that of Lore.

Kylo thought for a moment and said, "Well, you can decide for yourself!"

An An said: "That's it! I won't go on stage later." However, Lore, when the game is over, we must find a chance to play in private, so that I can see your recent progress and see the uniqueness of the 'edge' by the way!"

Lore nodded again and again: "This is no problem!"

Kylo said, "It's up to you in the future." As for the shady scene that Nolans said, don't care too much, the key is the game with Diman, Lore, you must play a little better, and the performance momentum! The effect of Diman's speech is already unexpectedly good, so as long as Lore can defeat him, no one will suspect that it is shady, on the contrary, with the name of General Lance, Lore's victory is a matter of course!"

After listening to this, several people nodded their heads one after another, feeling that it made sense.

But the more Lore listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help asking: "Why do I think you don't have any confidence in me?

Kylo replied mercilessly, "Of course I don't have confidence in you! Why do you think you're better than him?"

"Of course—"

"With the Excalibur 'Edge'? Don't forget, Di Man is seven years older than you, and his combat experience alone is enough to crush you, but what about you? Your progress is great, but how long have you only been able to get the 'Edge'? How long have you been practicing in the recent period? With you, even one percent of the strength of the 'Edge' may not be able to make it!"

Lorton's face turned red, different from before, this time he was angry, he was so worried about him before, and now he taught himself so ruthless!

Lore gritted his teeth and said: "Then according to your meaning, I will give the 'edge' directly to that Diman after the game!"

Ignoring Lore's angry expression, Kylo continued, "That's what I can't figure out! How naïve are you to bet on the 'edge'?"

Lore: "I ......"

"Although I don't know why this Diman resisted this marriage so much, he is obviously more urgent than us to break the marriage, so you don't have to pay attention to his bet!"

Lore quibbled: "Where did you see it, if you want me to say, if I hadn't agreed to his bet, he wouldn't have joined forces with us at all!"

Kylo sighed, "That's why I said you were naïve!"

Hearing Kylo's mouthful of "naivety", Lore was furious, how could she not hear it, this Kylo was turning around and scolding her for being stupid!

"You!"

Kylo waved his hand and interrupted directly: "I'll talk about the issue of the bet later, the 'edge' has already recognized you as the master, and if Diman wants to get the scabbard back, he will have to wait until you have studied it thoroughly! Now I want to talk about another thing!"

Only then did the few people who were silent on the side have a chance to speak: "What's the matter?"

"It's still that Ke Lian's problem! I think you should focus on her game, although I have already said what I should say, but after all, it is not as profound as Lore's personal glance! I think that if you and her face each other, if you can't seize the opportunity, eighty percent will lose!"

Several people looked at Lohr together, wanting to see how Lohr reacted, but Lohr was already a little numb, she nodded resignedly: "Okay, Lord Kylo, I know." ”

Kylo: "......"

By the time the few people had finished discussing, the sky had already fully lit up, and after hurriedly eating the breakfast brought by Leah, the five people except Kylo rushed to the arena together.

Since the number of people who have advanced has been reduced to sixteen, there is no need for so many venues for the competition, and the rest of the games are arranged in the large arena in the center of the academy.

The next sixteen people were divided into two groups, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and the final first and second places will be contested by the two winners of the two groups, a way that has not changed for hundreds of years.

The match between Lore and An An was deliberately arranged by the academy in the first game, which was also yesterday's game, Lore's performance was too eye-catching, and the academy intended to use this to motivate many students.

However, the academy's plan was doomed to fail, before the two of them played, and before the referee even had time to read the names of the two people, An An had already run over with a smile and announced his abstention.

The referee asked with a black line, "Why?"

An An thought for a while: "After my game yesterday, I was too injured to continue playing. ”

The referee gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think the audience will believe it?"

An An pouted: "You don't care if they believe it or not! Or do you find another reason yourself?"

Referee: "......"

You abstain and you want me to help you find a reason?

The referee was helpless, but he was helpless, An An had already made up his mind not to play, and he had no choice but to come to the stage with an expressionless face and announce: "In the first game, because Ancias's serious injury has not healed, he cannot continue the game, and Loerrands will directly advance!"

The audience was in an uproar, and I don't know how many viewers who watched yesterday's An An game were questioning.

"Resolutely oppose An An's abstention!"

"An An didn't get hurt at all!

"Shady!

"We're going to see little Lori!

"Long live little Lori!"

“......”

The cries from the audience seem to be shifting in some strange direction.

An An and Luole, who were listening backstage, were already furious! An An pinched the puppet's head into a deformation, and Luoer had already summoned the "Edge" divine sword! I couldn't wait to rush to the audience immediately and completely exterminate this group of bastards!

Seeing this, Aiqi and Nolans didn't dare to take a breath, and even quietly took a few steps back, for fear of being killed by the pond fish.

Fortunately, the cries from the audience did not last long, and before the cries went away to a worse place, the referee couldn't help it, and took a step forward, waving his finger prints, and a spell in his mouth, and in a moment, two huge black-winged giants spread their wings out from the mysterious space door, hovering and chirping above the audience, and from time to time looking at the male students in the audience with hideous eyes.

Under the great terror, there was no longer any opposition from the audience.

In the waiting area, Luo Er asked An An in a low voice: "This teacher belongs to your contract department! Tsk, I didn't expect our academy to have such a strong teacher!"

An An also agreed: "I didn't expect that this teacher usually looks like a well-dressed beast, but he is so powerful!"

Lore: "...... An An, you want to express the meaning of being polite, right?"

An An thought for a while: "It's all the same!"

It's a lot worse, okay!

Lore always felt that An An seemed to have an inexplicable hostility towards men, maybe she was interested in Kylo before, and she also wanted to see if Kylo had a hidden side!

On the arena stage, the referee from the contract department finally announced: "In the next game, the second-year magic department Rykbran will face the second-year contract department Carmon Levi!

After finishing speaking, the referee stepped down with a black face, but he left, but his two powerful magic pets were still hovering in the air, and for a while, the audience on the field was surprisingly orderly.

It's just that it's not just the audience that is affected, the two contestants on the stage are obviously out of shape, and the battle is not in rhythm at all.

The magic department's Ryker is fine, but Carmon suffered, his contract demon pet feels the coercion of adult high-level demonic beasts from above, and it is already very powerful to attack according to the master's orders, as for normal play, how is this possible!

So the result was obvious, Carmon ended his game very aggrieved, but he didn't dare to question the referee, who let that referee happen to be the teacher of their contract department!

Before the start of the next game, because of the order from the dean in private, the referee took back the two magic pets, and all the frightened students breathed a sigh of relief!
