Chapter 32 Successors
"Williams!Williams!" erupted in shouts and applause from the swordsmen's seats in the audience. "Anna, Anna!" was not to be outdone in the Ministry of Magic.
In the shouts of the audience, Williams took the stage, with a muscular figure, a bronzed complexion, a sunny face, and a raunchy swordsman costume, this is a well-loved civilian swordsman master in the swordsman department.
Immediately after, Anna came on. Dressed in a white magic robe like a cicada's wings, fluttering in the breeze, a peerless face that captivates the country and the city, shining in the sun, a pair of smart water-cutting eyes, looking forward to life. Cold and refined, the inherent holy temperament, does not eat the fireworks of the world, so that Anna is like a fairy, dare not let people look directly, however, the eyes are good, that is clearly a fresh girl's feelings. Slowly stepped onto the stage step by step, gradually attracting the eyes of more and more audiences, a hollow valley orchid, and the noisy audience suddenly fell silent for a while, as if no one wanted to disturb the fairy's Linfan. Although, after Anna came on the court, she didn't look at her opponent Williams, and the focus of her eyes clearly fell on Jiro at the resting table.
With the referee's long whistle, the game began......
Williams didn't make a preemptive move, and made a friendly gesture to Anna very gentlemanly. Anna withdrew her gaze, focused on the game, and nodded kindly.
With a casual move, his whole body was covered with a crystal ice shield, and he looked at Williams, "Please!" "Offended!" Williams said, raised his long sword, and quickly approached Anna.
Anna looked at Williams quietly, and lightly opened her lips: "Frost Ring", pointing with her bare hand. Williams jumped up, spread his wings in mid-air, jumped a few meters away, and where he had landed, ice crystals flashed.
"Ice Slash!" Anna reasserted her might, and with a finger of her hand, an ice blade was fired at Williams starting from Anna. A trace of solemnity appeared in Williams's eyes, and the ice blade quickly enlarged in front of him, and came to him in an instant, Williams was in mid-air, unable to dodge, and shouted loudly, and slashed his waist. There was a "boom", and the collision between the fighting qi and the ice blade made a roar, and then the crisp breaking sound of the ice crystals sounded.
Williams landed on his feet and looked at Anna again, the woman who had been like an iceberg of snow lotus in the battle, staring at him from the other side. "Ice Arrow!" Anna began to attack, but at the same time, her figure was drifting backwards, and Williams flexed her body again, dodging the attack and rushing forward.
As a swordsman and magician duel, close quarters is almost the only way out, as a seeded player in the swordsman department, Williams's strength is not strong, and the speed is not fast, but in the pursuit battle with Anna, five minutes have passed, and he has not even touched Anna's shirt. It seems that Anna always has a cold expression of understatement, and she always shoots the lowest level of ice arrows, endlessly, but it is this lowest-level ice arrow that makes Williams unable to get close.
Williams gradually lost his calm, and his fighting spirit filled his body, "Whirlwind Slash!" The long sword swept forward wrapped in fighting energy, and the "click" sounded, and the oncoming ice arrows turned into debris and turned into crystals with the wind. Williams locked onto Anna's position and sprinted forward. Anna waved her hands together, and two ice arrows burst out. The fighting spirit met the cold ice arrow, and there were two crisp sounds, and at the same time that the fighting spirit was scattered, the two cold ice arrows shattered to the ground. Williams raised his fighting spirit again, and the long sword that had been hit tightly tightened in his hand, holding back the soreness of his wrist, and the whirlwind slash was launched again.
Anna retreated, but Williams came faster, and finally the two were only three meters apart, Williams's eyes were full of eagerness, depressed for so long, and consumed most of the fighting spirit, as if he had finally seen the dawn of victory. Anna was still retreating, but there was no panic in Anna's eyes, more than calm, like a cold pool. A trace of uneasiness rose inexplicably in Williams's heart, what was wrong? The snorting of the air was in her ears, and Anna was still so quiet, her fingers fluttering. Suddenly, Williams felt the temperature around him plummet, what? Ice ring? Looking at Anna in front of him, it was still quiet and cold, Williams's uneasiness became more and more intense, but he was unwilling, and retreated, which meant reopening the distance, which meant that after consuming most of his fighting energy, he returned to the original point again, and he was not sure that he would be able to get close again.
Lifting the fighting spirit again, he kicked the ground hard with his left foot, lifted his body, and the person spread his wings in mid-air like an eagle, and then held the long sword with both hands, and shouted: "Angry slash!" The tip of the sword was full of fighting energy, and Anna's cold eyes also had a trace of solemnity, and there was another ice shield on her body, and a magic seal in her hand, but it was not triggered. "Click!" The contact between the fighting spirit and the ice shield, with a crisp sound, the ice shield shattered, the fighting qi decreased slightly, and continued to move forward, "click-" Another sound, hitting the ice shield again, Anna retreated, shook back, and the ice shield was covered with cobwebs. Williams's figure was also shocked, and the castration came to an abrupt end. At this moment, a cold voice sounded in my ears: "Ice Pick Technique!"
Williams was startled, and a cold breath swept across his face, accompanied by tiny ice crystals covering his body. There is no way to avoid it, and with a loud shout, Williams raised his fighting spirit again, and swung his long sword again and again, and there was a mist in his eyes, and he didn't know how many blows he had in his body, and he landed on the ground, and his feet staggered. "Oh no, it's an ice ring!" Williams realized that it was too late, and the cold that froze through his heart made his limbs gradually lose their ability to react, and the remaining fighting energy in his body surged wildly, intending to force out the chill. Anna's voice in his ears was like a thousand years of ice: "Water polo!" "Bang!" A sound, Williams was hit in the chest by a water balloon the size of a football, he tried to stabilize his body, but he couldn't, his legs took a few steps back, and he fell on the stage with a bang. As soon as he touched the ring, a chill hit him, and Williams was about to get up, but another ice ring came down......
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the martial arts arena is even hotter, and the shouts are deafening. The game continued, and in the next few games, there were no dark horses, and the seeded players all passed easily, especially the swordsman Elaine in the nineteenth game and Mona in the twentieth game, both of whom solved the battle in an instant, shocking the four.
Twenty games are over, the lunch break is time, and the rare interval between games, the spectators in the stands leave the stadium one after another, and there are many options to deal with lunch directly in the audience. As soon as Erlang got up, Dece ran over with a smile on his face like an old fox in front of him, "Erlang, how is it? The game is still exciting, right?" Erlang snorted, Dece patted Erlang on the shoulder, and said, "Let's go, go with the mentor, take you to meet a few people!" Turning his head: "Monna, well done, come on! You go to dinner, I'll take Erlang for a walk." ”
Walking on the boulevard of the campus, stepping on the soft leaves, the rustling sound, the bustling flow of people on the road, in groups of three or five, Erlang casually followed Dece forward.
"Erlang, do you know who to take you to?"
"Hmm. ”
"Erlang, you're smart. When you first came to school, as soon as the teacher saw you, he knew that you were not a thing in the pool, and one day you would soar into the sky. ”
"The teacher has won the prize. ”
"I even feel honored to be in my class, you are one of those rare geniuses in a thousand years, just like Master Smith. ”
“......”
"Looking back on the experience of the past two months since the beginning of school, although I haven't seen you a few times, the impact you have on me has become stronger and stronger. Jiro, tell me, have you reached the intermediate level now?"
"How is that possible!" Jiro touched his nose.
"Although it is impossible for anyone else, but in Erlang you, no matter how big the miracle teacher is, it is nothing! I was not a trainee magician two months ago, and two months later, I easily defeated the two low-level trainee swordsmen by myself, and the instantaneous magic of the gods. Erlang, maybe you don't know it yourself, in the academy, you are already a miracle!"
Dece suddenly turned his face and looked at Erlang with a slightly complicated look: "Although it has only been two months, the teacher already feels very lucky, even if the adult wants to take you away this time, I have no other ideas." Of course, it would be even better if you were able to make it to the end!"
Looking at the thick expectation on Dece's old face, although there had been unpleasantness, Erlang suddenly felt that it was nothing, "Mentor, I will insist on finishing the game." ”
A smile tugged at Deze's face. "And, if possible, I'll represent the academy in the Academy Alliance tournament!" Jiro said softly but firmly, looking ahead with his eyes ahead.
Dece was stunned, with Erlang's talent, a few months of the Academy Alliance Competition, if the strength is further advanced, then the Tianchen Demon Martial Academy can finally have a small expectation! Happiness came so suddenly, thinking back to the hatred of Erlang that day, Dece's thoughts were in chaos.
Seeing Erlang again, Smith's face showed kindness, this old man who is not too old has lost his cultivation due to Thomas's attack, and has become a little old, and the half of his scarred old face has completely covered the demeanor of the year, but the old man's eyes are still full of expectation and appreciation when he looks at Erlang. Smith's change surprised his old friend Nix, and his eyes unconsciously looked at Erlang, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a face like Fu Fan, who was really handsome and elegant.
"Erlang, come. Smith pulled Erlang to his side and pointed to Nicks beside him, "Divine Cult Ascetic Academy, Nicks, high-level swordsman of Demon and Martial Arts dual cultivation." ”
"Hello senior. Jiro nodded. Nix was a little surprised, the high-level swordsman was the strongest group of people under the top ten masters in the mainland, Erlang didn't even have admiration and envy in his eyes, Brother Shi's vision was really unusual!
Smith pointed to another old man beside him: "Tempest Swordsman Tian Guang, Dean of the Qishan Academy of the Water Moon Empire, and a mid-level swordsman." ”
"Hello senior. ”
"Young man, very good, very good!" Tian Lao twisted his beard and nodded again and again, with appreciation in his eyes.
"Old Joe, I'm very happy today. When was the last time the four of us got together? I, Smith, have not been out of Tianchen Island for thirty years, isolated from the world, you can't imagine it, I also have a successor. ”
When Erlang heard this, he couldn't help but glance sideways at Smith on the side, this old man, is he emotionally drunk? When did you become your successor?
Smith picked up his glass: "It's not me boasting, although Erlang started late, and now he is only a low-level apprentice magician, but I believe that in the near future, he will definitely shock the entire continent!"
"Yes, Shi Lao. To be honest, the two peerless geniuses that Shi Lao brought to me this time made me have some expectations for this Academy Alliance Competition. Jonathan poured Smith a full glass of wine, "Come, I'll toast you!"
Watching the four old men push the cup and change the lamp, Erlang stared at the wine in the lamp, like an old monk entering the meditation.
The four old guys were drinking, and Nix suddenly had an unbelievable face, this little guy was meditating in such a noisy environment? Not afraid to go crazy? The other three saw the changes in Nix, and also discovered Erlang's strange appearance, the magic boy!
"What's wrong with you?" Erlang suddenly looked up and smiled, and asked when he saw a few different old faces.
After a few dry coughs, Smith said: "Erlang, perform well, strive for the first place in the rookie competition, enter the academy alliance competition, and earn a big face for Qiao Lao!" Then, I hope you can participate in the Mainland Youth Demon Martial Arts Competition......"
"Wait, Shi Lao, I think there's something that needs to be clarified. Erlang pulled Smith, "I will participate in the Academy Alliance Competition as much as possible, but I have no intention of chasing the peak of magic, what Continental Demon Martial Arts Competition, I will talk about it later." In addition, I will help you find a suitable successor, so ......"
"Erlang, Erlang!" Smith interrupted Erlang, "Listen to me, the three of them have a proud heir, and they use this matter to squeeze me every time. You've got to fight for me, give you three years to beat them!"
"What? three years?" the Knicks laughed at the time, "Old Shi, it's not good to put too much pressure on young people." ”
Tian Guang also shook his head at Smith, turned his head to Erlang and said, "Erlang, don't listen to him! Your master wants to overshadow us and want to go crazy." Do you know who Old Joe's heirs are?"
Erlang shook his head, and Tian Guang smiled: "Have you heard of the Tianchen magic genius Qiao Yi'er who rose to prominence in the Academy Alliance Competition more than ten years ago? ”
Erlang was a little dazed, Joy knew it, Anna's master, the level of magic was very high, but what it was like, it was not clear, how difficult it was for middle-level magicians to surpass, I didn't understand.
Tian Guang saw that Erlang didn't react much, and then said: "Old man Tian Guang, a middle-level swordsman, I have a disciple who is not a weapon, and he is the head of the Tempest Mercenary Regiment and a high-level swordsman Zhao Yunfeng. Erlang is waiting for you to succeed in cultivation, and it is not difficult to surpass him. ”
Erlang was still dazed and nodded.
Tian Guang said again: "The heir of the Knicks, this, this ......" Tian Guang pointed at Smith and stopped talking.
Seeing that Erlang was at a loss, Jonathan said, "The descendant of Ni Lao is one of the captains of the eight Bright Knight Captains of the Holy Knights of the Holy See of Light, Okocha, a middle-level swordsman. If you want to enter the sword master level before the age of fifty, there are only a few people in the mainland for thousands of years. Okocha was extremely talented, and at the age of fifty-one, he was promoted to a low-level sword master, becoming another genius of the Bright Sect after Shi Lao. ”
"Old Shi, how about not visiting the two of us to make a bet? If Erlang can reach the level of a magician at the age of twenty-five, I will admit defeat. Knicks said suddenly, with seriousness in his tone, but also banter.
