"No, no."

"Mm-hmm, I got it."

"It's okay on my side."

「……」

After Matthew finished speaking, the S-class students below echoed him.

"Okay."

After a brief reply, Matthew looked at the mentors around him and confirmed the other party's eyes.

After all, the main job of the student council is to execute, and the real decision-maker is actually the school of Shengyao College.

Therefore, whether the work arrangement is perfect enough or not depends on the dissatisfaction of these old-timers.

"These people here are Archmage Professor Grian, Archmage Murad Mentor, Archswordsman Abozo Mentor, and Warrior Association Certified Gold Ranger Mentor Tremina......

"The official date of the Principality Youth Warrior League is the second half of next month, and there is still a month to go until today."

"So during this time, these senior mentors will guide us in battle."

"If you encounter any problems on weekdays, you can also find time to consult them privately."

Matthew paused, then said with a smile:

"Everyone should also know what it means to be an S-level student in our academy."

"All of you here are the best of the new generation of gamers."

"The college has nurtured us and given us a lot of privileges and expectations."

"And this league is the best opportunity for our college to win glory and repay our alma mater......

The president of the student union delivered a speech with emotion, and his feelings gradually became full.

But after Lu Qingge observed for a while, he found that several other S-class students were all tired.

Some even started yawning.

In short, no one seems to be listening to them seriously.

The chairman's rambling lasted almost twenty minutes before it stopped.

After that, the time is reserved for the instructors to share their experience before the competition.

It wasn't until this link that everyone cheered up and took notes seriously.

Lu Qingge naturally did not miss this rare opportunity, and also concentrated on calling up his own panel book.

You must know that these professors and mentors in front of you are all experts in their professional fields.

With such an excellent senior, how can they have spare time to teach such classes to students on weekdays?

This kind of knowledge is something that you can't buy even after spending a thousand dollars.

But it didn't take long for Lu Qingge to listen carefully.

Smollett, who was sitting next to him, glanced at him, showing an expression that couldn't pull out, and he wanted to stop talking.

"Senior, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Qingge asked curiously.

"Uh, no......"

Smollet hesitated for a few seconds, but finally relented:

"Actually, it's nothing."

"It's ......"

"As a person who has come over, I want to say that you don't need to study so seriously."

"Huh?"

Lu Qingge said, "What do you say?"

"Because it's useless, and it's a waste of time."

Smollet shrugged.

"Can you bother the senior to be more direct?"

Lu Qingge asked.

After hesitating for a while, Smollet sighed helplessly:

"Hey."

"You might be disappointed when you say it."

"Because you don't even have a chance to play."

Lu Qingge: "Huh? What do you mean by that?"

"Uh, what do you say......

"This should be regarded as the unspoken rule of the National Youth Brave League."

"First of all, you need to know."

"The pace of the [Trap Road] game map is very fast most of the time."

"So the players on the bench have almost no chance to play."

"Even as a substitute like me, the vast majority of the time is paddling all over the field until the end of the game."

"Not to mention you're still a substitute in the second position, buddy......

Smollet patted Lu Qingge's shoulder, sighed and said:

"Have you been to the Principality Arena?"

"The bench for the game over there, next to the scoreboard."

"There's a water dispenser there, and there's a bench next to it."

"If nothing else, on the day of the race, you're basically sitting through that thing and not running......

As he spoke, Smollett's tone unconsciously revealed a resentment:

"You may not believe it."

"I'm also in the third grade this year, and I was a substitute in the first two years of the National Youth Brave League."

"I haven't played in a single game in two tournaments."

"I thought it would."

"You're a newcomer this year, I should be able to get on @

Clear.

The lineup arrangement of this year's National Youth Brave League is indeed likely to be deliberately done by Matthew.

In order to put him on the cold bench, Matthew could have stuffed him into the No. 2 bench.

After all, the president of the student union has always looked at him a little unhappy.

In addition, this person has a little meaning to Xia Yubing.

If you put all these factors together, it is not difficult to guess this possibility.

But let's take 10,000 steps back.

Even if it wasn't deliberate, Matthew's arrangement was actually completely understandable.

After all......

He's the latest newcomer to the list.

is also a first-year freshman, Xia Yubing's strength and fame are obviously greater than him.

And the most important point is that Xia Yubing is a mage.

In this way, Lu Qingge has no bright spots and competitiveness at all.

So in the end, it is reasonable to play as a substitute in the second position.

But having said that, Lu Qingge's heart did not feel any discouragement.

"After all, for a newcomer like me."

"It's a great blessing to be able to play in a league like this."

"Even if it's just as a substitute, such an experience can be written into the resume and become a strong stroke."

"An honor like this, no matter how many people want to rub it, they can't rub it."

"So, it's time for me to be content."

Lu Qingge thought to himself:

"And now I'm just a first-year freshman with a small achievement, let alone a student in the auxiliary department."

"With my current abilities, it's impossible to play Matthew."

"My main goal at the moment is still to transfer to the Department of Magic and systematically learn about spells."

"When I have a small success in the magic department, that's when I start to show my edge."

"So whether there is this competition or not, I have to practice seriously to improve my combat effectiveness."

Thinking of this, Lu Qingge gradually sank down.

After entering the [Training Ground], Lu Qingge entered the [Oraka] copy without any reason and began to brush up.

During this period of time, the copy of [Oraka] has really reached the point of being brushed by Lu Qingge to the point of vomiting.

So much so that now, Lu Qingge even feels that he can brush this thing with his eyes closed.

That's it.

Lu Qingge was full of enthusiasm and brushed directly until eleven o'clock in the evening.

In one go, I wiped out all of today's [fatigue points].

And the purpose of Lu Qingge is also very simple.

That is, it is necessary to spend the whole day today and save all the [experience points] you need.

Fortunately, Lu Qingge did it smoothly.

The first thing Lu Qingge did when he came out of [Oraka] was to upgrade his two new skills!

[Ding!] ]

[Skill Lv1 Fireball Technique has been increased to Lv10 Fireball Technique!] ]

[Ding!] ]

[You've Got an Epiphany Skill: Fireball!] ]

[Did it cost 800,000 XP to level up this skill?] ]

[……]

"Hiss......"

Seeing this, the corners of Lu Qingge's mouth twitched wildly.

800,000 XP!? new

Why don't you grab it?!

So the skills of the law system are so difficult to cultivate......

It's a bit of a frustration.

It's going to be a bit hard to accumulate so many [XP points] for a while.

"Let's put our hopes in [Stepping Forward] for the time being......

Lu Qingge

He sighed and thought helplessly.

It's not just that [Fireball] can't be advanced for the time being, but also because he can't get started with this skill for the time being.

The gap between the skills of a mage and the skills of a physics profession is not ordinarily large.

Spells are not like swords and fists, you can see and touch them.

If you want to cast a spell successfully, you must be proficient in various types of spell casting techniques.

A pure novice like Lu Qingge, even if he unlocks the skill of [Fireball Technique], he may not be able to guarantee that he will be able to successfully complete the spell every time.

Therefore, in comparison, in the short term, the benefits brought to him by [stepping forward and chopping] should be higher.

[……]

[Ding!] ]

[Skill "Lv1 Stepping Forward" has been increased to "Lv10 Stepping Forward!] ]

[Ding!] ]

[You've Got Epiphany Skill: Slash Forward!] ]

[Do you want to improve this skill?] ]

[Ding!] ]

[Advanced Success!] ]

[You have unlocked a new skill form: Rogue Slash!] ]

[……]

[Skill: Rogue Slash!] ]

[Details: Death is like the wind, always with me......]

[Effect 1: Quickly dash to a target's side and unleash a powerful slash.] ]

[Effect 2: When the slash hits the target, the cooldown of the Forward Slash will be reset and the target will be marked for 8 seconds.] ]

[Effect 3: When the Forward Slash hits a marked target, the cooldown is not reset.] ]

[Effect 4: Every time you perform a forward slash, a layer of "Sword Intent" will be superimposed.] Each layer of "Sword Intent" will increase the critical strike chance and damage of the next step forward slash. ]

[Cooldown: 8s]

[Note: Face the Wind!] ]

See here.

Lu Qing's pupils trembled slightly.

- This skill, it's kind of interesting.

Although at first glance, it seems to be a bit of a bells and whistles.

But if you chew it carefully, you will find out.

The upper limit of this [Rogue stepping forward] operation seems to be quite high.

"Yes, that's interesting."

"Let's test it out and see how effective this skill is."

After choosing a [Free Fighting Arena], Lu Qingge entered the secret realm.

The so-called [Free Fighting Arena], in fact, is also an artificial secret realm.

As its name suggests, there is only one empty space within it.

Players can freely adjust the environment of the secret realm to use it for their own training content.

Lu Qingge directly called up the dueling arena environment of the [Extreme Dao Martial Arts Hall].

Then in the center of the venue, several stationary training dolls were placed.

And they were arranged in an irregular arrangement, not too far from each other, and placed them at a distance not too far from each other.

And then.

Lu Qingge stood in front of the first puppet and slowly pulled out [Determination].

"Hoo ......"

Lu Qingge breathed a sigh of relief.

The next moment, the body suddenly burst out with strength!

He strode to the ground, rushing forward at high speed.

At the same moment, the sword flashed.

- Jump forward!

Cha!

[-274]

This is the damage of the first sword.

The next moment, the skill's cooldown resets, and the icon flashes again.

Lu Qingge once again cast [Step Forward Slash] and slashed towards the next puppet.
