Arriving at the Academy's stronghold for Arno, Hale saw Anglo and Uhl comforting a few frustrated apprentices from afar.

Looking closer, those apprentices were all less than level three, and it was estimated that they were very sad because they lost in the competition.

Seeing Hall coming over, Anglo greeted him, looked at Hall carefully, and said, "Hall, it's great to see that you're okay, we were worried about whether you would be strong, but I didn't expect you to be quite calm." ”

Hall laughed, and was about to defend himself, when he was interrupted.

Arno walked over at some point, and said with a cold expression: "I didn't expect him, what's so bad." ”

Hall suddenly felt a little lost in his heart, and the words that came to his mouth were swallowed by him again.

"You've got all the games done, you're all here, let's go back. Arno left the venue with a blank face.

Small courtyard by the lake, inside a large wooden house.

Everyone gathered, and compared to the high mood of last night, today there were some depressed expressions, some smiling.

Looking at his apprentices, Arno snorted and said in a deep voice, "Well, I should actually praise you, you all worked hard this time, and even if you lose, there is nothing to be frustrated." Of course, your and Anglo are the hardest working among you, so the results are received. ”

After saying this, for some reason, Arno glanced at Hall.

"At first, I thought you would all be eliminated in the first round, but I didn't expect that there were two left, which was a surprise, but the opponents in the second round were all tested, and most of them were apprentices above level 5. So, your and Anglo, I don't ask you anything, just do your best, but don't be reckless. ”

The two bowed their heads and said, "Yes, teacher, we will do our best." ”

Looking at these two people, Arno suddenly smiled bitterly, because with their strength, the chance of being eliminated the next day was very high. It's absolutely impossible to get any position.

The more he thought about it, the worse his mood became, so he shook his hand and said, "Go down, I see that you are tired too." ”

Just as everyone was about to turn away, Arno spoke again, "By the way, Hall, the matter I gave you is very important, and you can't be careless, so go back to the watchtower now, and don't delay your work." ”

Hall had already turned his back and was struggling with how to tell the news of the victory, when he suddenly heard such words and froze.

He clenched his fists, bit his lower lip, and finally said, "Teacher, I accidentally won the test today......"

Hall's voice was so small that everyone couldn't believe their ears and asked, "Hall, what did you say?"

Hall clenched his fists, lowered his head and said, "Teacher, I won." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the apprentices made a fuss, although they all felt incredible, but they were all happy for Hall, after all, Hall was also Arno's apprentice, and everyone had light on their faces.

Arno was also really taken aback, frowned deeply, and asked, "The other party is also a first-level apprentice?"

Hall shook his head and said, "He is a fourth-level apprentice, but he may have been too stressed and mentally normal, so he gave up the test halfway." ”

If the apprentice heard this, he would have spurted blood on the spot.

Arno sighed and said without a smile, "Okay, but I don't think you'll ever have such luck again." If you encounter danger tomorrow, you should admit defeat early, you know?"

Hall bit his lower lip and didn't speak.

At this time, the apprentices all became noisy one by one, and they all said: "Wow, Hall, you are so lucky, you can actually defeat the fourth-level apprentice!"

When Hall heard these praises, he felt worse than hearing others scolding him, so he turned his head and said, "Teacher, I'm tired and go back to rest first." ”

Seeing Hall's expression, everyone quieted down, looked at the somewhat lonely back, and slowly walked out of the hall.

At this time, Anglo sighed lightly and said, "Relying on luck to win is indeed not a thing to be happy about. ”

Hearing this, everyone also sighed, in their opinion, Hall was just a moment of luck, and he would definitely be eliminated the next day.

Cangyi Academy is still like a giant dragon lying on a hill, quiet and majestic, overlooking the earth with a proud gaze.

The bright moon sprinkled through the thin mist on the three ancient castles, covering them with a misty feather coat.

The night passed quickly, and a new day began.

The second day of the competition did not require a gathering as on the first day, but the apprentices rushed to the ring by themselves.

Such a rule allows the disciples who are tired from the first day to go back later and get enough rest.

But it may be that the next matches are very important, so Hall's game is scheduled for the first round.

The genius was bright, and Hall pushed open the wooden door and walked out alone.

At this time, the courtyard was very quiet, and everyone had not yet gotten up.

Light snow falls on the sky, which is very common in this season.

Hall stood on the cold lake for a moment, looked back at Arno's big house, sighed whitely, and buried his head as he walked towards the courtyard gate.

He knew very well in his heart that he had already eliminated a group of people on the first day, and the opponent on the second day would be very tricky.

He is already a formal magician, but before he learns formal magic, his strength can only be regarded as a seventh- or eighth-level apprentice, and if he meets an apprentice of the same level as himself, then it is difficult to say whether he will win or lose.

Although he won the first game, if he lost the second game, then in the end he would still be considered just lucky, which is certainly not what Hall wants, what he wants is recognition from everyone!

So Hall secretly decided that he would do his best to win this one.

When I came to the square, there were only a few people on it.

This time Hall's ring was still very remote, almost in the bottom right corner of the entire arena.

Hall slowly came to the edge of the ring, and saw that a person was already standing in the middle of the field, and it must be his opponent.

When Hall saw the other party's face clearly, his pupils suddenly dilated.

His expression instantly became as cold as a knife, and he stared at the man fiercely.

He clenched his fists, lowered his head, and walked into the arena step by step.

"You're that Hall under Arno? I heard that you won the last game by luck? The apprentice of the waste has this kind of luck, the god must have gone to the kiln yesterday. Hahaha. The man laughed, and his attitude was very frivolous.

Hall didn't speak, clenched his fists, he already recognized that this person was one of the five people who bullied him that day, the apprentice who released the fireball yes!

At this time, the other party retracted slightly, coughed twice and said: "But you know, Lady Luck is not always on the side of the waste, today I will let you see the difference between genius and garbage, although you are only a first-level apprentice, and I am already a ninth-level apprentice, the disparity in strength is a bit big, but Teacher Jill said that you must not show mercy when you meet Arnold's apprentice, so you have to be prepared today." ”

Seeing that Hall still lowered his head and did not speak, the apprentice smiled and said: "What's the matter? Are you scared? But since you have come in, I will not allow you to abstain, I specially asked the elder to come late in this competition, so that I can play well, even if I kill you by mistake, just a first-level apprentice, the academy will not dig deeper, and even thank me for removing a waste of rice for the academy." I really want to see Arno's mongrel elder when he collects the corpses of his disciples, with that bereaved dog-like face, and I am happy to see it!"

"Really?" Hale gently turned the wings of light, his eyes were extremely determined, and he said slowly: "In that case, then it may be ...... who will collect the corpse for whom in the end."
