Chapter 876: Come To the Stage (1)
“Miss Yun, the free arena has already begun. You’re on Region A arena, while Miss Xia Qing is on Region C.” Ling smiled elegantly. Yun Feng nodded. “The rules of the free arena are very simple.” Ling gently pushed his glasses. “You’ll be able to qualify after forty consecutive victories. If you lose any of the battles in the middle, you’ll be automatically eliminated.”
Yun Feng raised her brows curiously. Was this… a consecutive battle? The rules seemed very casual, but they were actually cruel and heartless. Once you lost once, it would be useless even if you won thirty-nine rounds in a row. “So, anyone who wins forty rounds in a row can qualify? There’s no limit to the number of winners?” Yun Feng asked as Ling nodded. “That’s right. There’s no limit on the number of people who can qualify, but Miss Yun will definitely be fine.”
Yun Feng smiled. Someone in a corner of the hall seemed to be calling Ling. Ling said goodbye regretfully and left, while Yun Feng pondered the rule. Qu Lanyi walked to Yun Feng and held her hand gently. “What are you thinking about?”
Yun Feng lowered her head slightly. “I’m thinking about this rather interesting rule.”
Qu Lanyi smiled in disdain. “The Summoning Union must have a purpose for gathering these people together. We’ll know when the time comes.”
Yun Feng was relieved. “You’re right. I’ll know everything when I qualify.”
Mu Canghai walked over. Yun Feng glanced at his face and found that he seemed a bit weak. Mu Canghai noticed Yun Feng’s gaze and the corners of his mouth curled up. “I’m fine.” Yun Feng’s lips moved, then she chuckled. “It’s great that you’re fine.” She turned around and looked at Xia Qing next to her. “Qingqing, let Qu Lanyi send you to Region C.”
Xia Qing nodded. She was happier when she thought that she wouldn’t be on the same ring as her teacher. She must work hard this time and try to qualify! That way, she could stand next to her teacher! Qu Lanyi’s thin lips moved as he glanced at Mu Canghai, who was a bit pale. Then, he sighed and let go of Yun Feng’s hand. He walked to Xia Qing’s side and messed up Xia Qing’s hair with his height.
“Brother Lanyi! You mess up my hair every time. I’m going to complain to the teacher!” Xia Qing looked at Qu Lanyi angrily. Qu Lanyi smiled gloatingly. “Let’s go. I’ll take you there.” He turned around and winked at Yun Feng. Seeing Yun Feng’s embarrassed and angry expression, he finally left with Xia Qing.
Only Mu Canghai was left standing behind Yun Feng. He was a bit shocked. He thought he would be the one to send Xia Qing over. Yun Feng walked out of the hall without saying anything. Mu Canghai was startled and quickly followed her. The sunlight outside was bright, but it didn’t shine on Mu Canghai at all. The space around Mu Canghai distorted to a certain extent, avoiding all the sunlight.
Yun Feng didn’t say anything along the way. Mu Canghai followed her silently. He looked at Yun Feng with his black and gray eyes as his heart kept rolling. Finally, he couldn’t help but say, “You won’t ask me what I did yesterday?”
Yun Feng chuckled. “You certainly have your freedom. You’re not my servant.”
For some reason, what she said made Mu Canghai feel a bit hurt. The piercing pain in his chest made him a bit at a loss. He got rid of these complicated emotions. Mu Canghai fell silent again and Yun Feng didn’t say anything either. The two of them walked all the way to the ring where they signed up yesterday. This was the arena for Yun Feng’s competition.
When she arrived at Region A, a lot of people had already gathered here. Yun Feng glanced at the crowd. Almost all of them were summoners. There was a hint of excitement on their faces. A few people walked in the crowd, as if they were verifying their identity.
Yun Feng stood outside quietly and listened to the commotion around her. The noises were endless. Yun Feng sank into her world as if she didn’t hear anything. “Yun Feng, I…” Mu Canghai’s lips moved and he wanted to say something, but someone walked over at this moment. “A contestant?”
Yun Feng didn’t seem to hear what Mu Canghai said. She replied, “Yes.”
“Name.” The person who asked glanced at the four-star badge on Yun Feng’s chest and his tone became much gentler. Yun Feng replied indifferently, “Yun Feng.”
The person who asked the question glanced at the name list in his hand and found Yun Feng’s name. He drew a line on it, which could be considered a verification. He pointed at the area next to the ring. “Contestant, go there and wait. Your companion must wait outside.”
Yun Feng nodded. The person who asked the question continued with his work. “I’ll go there. Wait here.” Yun Feng smiled at Mu Canghai. Mu Canghai’s chest suddenly hurt. The moment Yun Feng turned around and was about to leave, he impulsively reached out and grabbed the girl’s warm wrist.
“What’s wrong?” Yun Feng turned around and looked at Mu Canghai, but he didn’t shake off her hand. Instead, Mu Canghai suddenly retracted his hand and stared at Yun Feng. “Why didn’t you ask me?”
Yun Feng smiled. “Why should I ask you?”
Mu Canghai was startled and looked at Yun Feng dumbfoundedly. Yun Feng chuckled as she turned around and said to Mu Canghai, “Mu Canghai, I trust you, so I don’t have any questions. However, you must consider carefully before you do anything. Xiaojin waited ten years for you to come back. There’s no next ten years.”
Mu Canghai’s eyes widened. Yun Feng had already turned around and left. Mu Canghai clenched his fists fiercely as an unusual bitterness spread in his heart. “Ten years… There’s indeed no next ten years.” He was already someone who died. If he died again, he would completely disappear and wouldn’t come back. “Are you concerned about me?” Mu Canghai whispered with a wry smile as he slowly raised his handsome face. He didn’t have to think hard. No matter how noisy and chaotic the crowd was, the back of the girl was always so distinct, just like that night. It was deeply engraved in his heart.
The four corners of the Thousand Peak City would become the center of attention from today on. There would be exciting battles on the four rings. Summoner versus summoner, this wasn’t something that could be seen anytime.
There was a place for registered contestants next to each ring. The summoners and escorts who didn’t sign up could only wait outside. Naturally, there was no order for the contestants. Whoever wanted to go up first could go up.
Yun Feng came to the gathering place of the contestants and stood quietly at the back. The arena battle hadn’t started, because the verification work wasn’t over yet. Yun Feng waited patiently and also observed the situation in Region A silently.
