Chapter 129: The First Victory
The next day, Ryan and his party arrived at the arena of Skayas City Comprehensive College early, and as soon as they entered, they were startled by the crowd inside.
Ryan is a little better, he has experienced the mercenary promotion match in Kata City before, and it is also the scene of thousands of spectators. His companions were nervous and overwhelmed.
Ryan looked around the auditorium and saw that more than half of the audience were students from Skayas City College, and they were easy to discern because they were all sitting quietly.
The other half or so of the audience are people from other academies, these people are in two states, one is those stronger academies, they hold their own identity, and they also sit quietly to watch, for example, the people from the Pools Public Swordsman Academy, there are about three or four hundred people, sitting together, all watching with a very cold look, as if they are superior. If it weren't for the fact that the group of them wore the swordsman uniforms unique to their academy, Ryan would not be able to tell the difference between them and the Skayas City Comprehensive Academy.
The other is people from third-rate colleges and small colleges with poor strength, who use an exaggerated form to express their self-control of their college, such as standing and watching, holding banners, shouting slogans, etc.
The arena is equipped with two square stages about 40 meters long and 2 meters high. Because of the large number of events in the first round, two sets of competitions had to be held at the same time, which reminded Ryan of the mercenary tournament he had participated in before, and he felt familiar and familiar in his heart.
Players enter the rest area of the stadium, where they can rest and wait for the game to start, or they can watch other players play up close.
Ryan's competition group is No. 96, because the host said before that the first round of the competition is three days, so Ryan estimates that there is no competition of his own today, and the competition should start the next day.
Soon the day passed, and Ryan, who was watching the other competitors for a day, felt a lot of pressure. He saw that many of the players were very strong and had their own characteristics.
Among them, there is a player who turns out to be a level 6 swordsman, and it stands to reason that after becoming a level 6 swordsman, he will apply to graduate from the academy and will not come to participate in such a competition again. But this level 6 swordsman didn't know why, so he even came to participate in this sword skill competition. In the competition, the level 6 swordsman relied on his superior fighting spirit, and the opponent who suppressed him, the level 5 swordsman, was powerless.
There is also a level 5 swordsman from the Pools Public Swordsman Academy, who can use a sword technique that fires sword blades in bursts. At the beginning of the match, he fired five blades in a row, and it only took a dozen breaths to force his opponent off the stage.
Ryan looked ugly, he knew that with his own strength, if he met these two opponents, there was simply no hope of winning.
In this way, Ryan watched the first day of the game with trepidation. In addition, the reason why Ryan is unhappy is that he keeps searching the audience, but he finds no trace of Yathryn.
After the game, Ryan came to the door of Yaseline's dormitory and waited, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't wait for Yaseline, and Ryan had to return disappointed.
…………
The next day, Ryan and his party still arrived at the arena of Skayas City Comprehensive Academy.
Today, apart from the leading teacher, only Ryan and two companions arrived, as the other two companions had already lost yesterday's match, including the companion who was unlucky enough to draw the Pools Public Swordsman Academy, so they did not arrive today.
Ryan, like yesterday, had to watch the others carefully after unsuccessfully searching for Yatherine in the thousands of spectators.
Half a day later, it was finally Ryan's turn to play.
"Next up is the 96th group match, which will be played by Ryan, a level 3 swordsman from Parr Comprehensive Academy, against Abbott a level 4 swordsman from Charitas Private Academy......"
As soon as the words fell, except for a dozen or so spectators from Parr Comprehensive Academy, the other spectators barely reacted, and even several spectators took advantage of this time to get up and go to the toilet to solve their urgency, which shows how unpopular the duel of level 3 and level 4 swordsmen is among the many level 5 swordsman competitions.
Ryan doesn't mind very much, this kind of snubbing scene is somewhat to his liking, and the more he is despised the more Ryan likes it.
Ryan walked onto the stage with a calm face. Later, Ryan looked around the audience again, expecting to see Yatherine, but he was disappointed.
Ryan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I wonder if Yatherine has come to watch my game?" ”
Actually, Yatherine came to watch the game, but she sat in the corner of the last row.
At this time, Yaseline was staring at Ryan on the stage without blinking, and a female companion next to her asked her softly, "Yaseline, what's wrong with you?" Do you know the players on stage? ”
"No, let's watch the game." Yatherine reluctantly adjusted her somewhat fluctuating emotions and denied.
"I said Yaseline, you know I don't like to watch these fights, and you still force me over."
"Dory, just stay with me. We'll go back after watching this one, okay? There was a slight pleading in Jaceline's tone.
"Okay, okay, who called me your good sister?"
……
Ryan's opponent, a level 4 swordsman called Abbott, also stepped up to the stage.
Looking at the other party's one-foot-tall hair, extremely exaggerated hair, and very frivolous and undisguised disdain, Ryan looked calm and his mood did not change. This is a player who doesn't seem to have much strength, but Ryan doesn't take him lightly, because he is also worried that the other party will hide his strength just like himself.
This player, named Abbott, as soon as he came on stage, said to Ryan: "Ten moves, I only need ten moves, I can knock you down." ”
Ryan was speechless.
As the referee gave the order, Abbott let out a loud shout and swung his two-foot-long sword at Ryan, as if he wanted to split Ryan in half.
This is a move that extremely contemptuous of Ryan.
Ryan didn't resist, and he was a little happy to see his opponent make such a move, only to see him take a step forward diagonally, and suddenly let go of the opponent's seemingly fierce sword. Then, Ryan didn't use the heavy sword of his fighting spirit in his right hand, and lightly slashed up and stabbed the opponent in the chest.
Faced with Ryan's unexpected provocation, Abbott was immediately taken aback, he was completely unprepared, and could only barely dodge his body to the side, but he couldn't dodge, he could only avoid the vital point, and was stabbed by Ryan's heavy sword in the left side of the rib.
With a thud, Ryan's heavy sword slammed into Abbott's iron armor.
Ryan didn't show his fighting spirit, and all the swords used in the game were special swords that had not been opened, so the heavy sword could not pierce the iron armor. But the weight of the heavy sword, coupled with Ryan's natural strength, hit Abbott's body, which immediately made Abbott feel as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and blood immediately overflowed from his mouth.
Abbott was forced to take a few steps back at once, and his first reaction was not to defend, but to look at Ryan with a look of disbelief.
This shows how lacking his combat experience is!
However, Ryan did not let him go, but immediately stepped forward and knocked Abbott's long sword down with a few strokes.
When Ryan put his heavy sword on Abbott's neck, Abbott couldn't help but be ashamed and angry, he still looked like he couldn't believe his eyes.
This made Ryan feel a burst of pleasure, which was the consequence of despising Ryan.
The referee in the audience was also stunned, he didn't expect a level 3 swordsman to defeat a level 4 swordsman so cleanly, but he immediately reacted and declared Ryan the winner.
As for the crowd outside the stadium, most of them focused on the other stage at the same time, and few paid attention to Ryan's game. In a moment, when the loudspeaker on the spot suddenly sounded the news of Ryan's victory, everyone was taken aback, and everyone's first reaction was to think that the level 4 swordsman had defeated the level 3 swordsman in a few moves. However, it was soon realized that the result was just the opposite, it was when the level 3 swordsman defeated the level 4 swordsman in a few moves, everyone became even more surprised, and then passed ten or ten to hundred, and many people regretted why they didn't notice this quick end of the game just now.
Yaselyn on the edge of the corner was also surprised, she had heard Ryan talk about his deeds before, and knew that he was very powerful, but she was skeptical, and she saw it with her own eyes today, so she knew that Ryan was indeed very powerful.
Yaselyn couldn't help but be worried and happy, she had previously mentioned to Ryan a condition that she would associate with Ryan as long as he won the championship in the sword skills competition, just to make Ryan retreat, but she didn't expect Ryan to take it seriously and really participate in this sword skills competition, but with his strength as a level 3 swordsman, it is almost impossible to win the championship in a group of level 5 swordsmen.
"Yathryne, what's wrong with you?" Looking at Yatherine's expression as if she was excited, her companion Dori next to her hurriedly asked.
"It's okay, let's go." Yathleen quickly adjusted her emotions and pulled her companion out of her seat.
Dori seemed to want to say something, but in the end she didn't say it, and with a puzzled expression, she quietly followed Yatherine away.
……
Ryan won the first game, looking calm and not happy. For him, winning the championship is the ultimate goal, so this first victory is a matter of course, especially when the opponent is only a level 4 swordsman.
Before Ryan stepped off the stage, he looked around at the audience again. But he only saw countless viewers pointing and talking, and he didn't find the person he wanted to see.
Ryan sighed and stepped off the stage.
Back in the rest area, after dealing with the congratulations of the leading teacher and his peers, Ryan left the arena early.
Ryan is going to the girls' dormitory.
However, Ryan is destined to be disappointed again. After waiting for a long time and not seeing Yaselyn show up, Ryan had to go back to Parr Academy.
Along the way, Rui An'an was full of melancholy, and the victory in the first game did not bring him a trace of joy in the slightest.
