Chapter 111 - Rules
Chapter 111: Rules
Audrey’s hairstyle today was exactly like a noble lady’s, gorgeous and complicated.
On the other hand, Alice’s hair was effortless. A simple bun with two strands of hair at the side of her face.
It was obvious whose hair was easier to cut off.
Seeing Alice standing there foolishly without moving at all, Lance sneered. “What? Didn’t you say that you wanted miss Audrey to prove it to you?”
Alice’s face turned pale.
Could it be that the lord was not speaking up for her?
He had always been on Audrey’s side?
Alice wanted to open her mouth to question, but when she met Lance’s half-smiling eyes, she could not say anything.
He was the lord, and she was just the most ordinary subject in Spark City.
She did not have any qualifications, nor did she have any position to ask why the other party did not give her face.
Everything was her own imagination.
Audrey frowned as she looked at Lance. She did not understand what was wrong with this person.
She could tell that Lance was deliberately making things difficult for Alice. However, even if the little girl wanted to offend her, she would offend her instead of a powerful person like Lance, right?
Audrey opened her mouth and mouthed, “Stop fooling around.”
That was it.
The strange anger in Lance’s heart disappeared completely when he saw Audrey looking at him.
How strange.
He thought.
He was even a little happy. Even if he wanted to be interested in people, he should not be interested to such an extent, right?
Forget it. If you cannot figure it out, forget it.
When Audrey was around, he could feel an almost unprecedented peace of mind.
The violent fighting spirit, which sought to give itself a sense of existence from time to time, could also be quelled.
Shadowless Ghost Hand saw that Lance was no longer pursuing the matter. He quickly assigned rooms to Audrey, Alice, and the others. “According to the invitation, our Lord Lance will send you to the trial site together.”
“Before that, the leader of the jury has asked me to give you a general introduction of the test. You will have a unified test three days later.”
The temporary trial arranged by the Templar Knights was mainly divided into two parts, which were team combat and individual combat.
Team combat required all the students participating in the trial to form a five-person team spontaneously. Each team would be assigned a token, and the person who managed to snatch the token from the other team would win.
All the participants would be restricted to two days in the forest. At the end of the time, the team with the most tokens would win.
The individual and team battle modes were almost the same, except they would get more tokens within the stipulated time.
“There are many spirit beasts in the forest. I don’t know what kind of danger you will encounter, but this is something you should consider.”
“In the city lord’s mansion, you only have three days to adjust and form a team. Then, on the last day, you have to register at this place. Those who don’t register will be regarded as giving up.”
“Not all of you will have the chance to get the invitation card again. Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on your own luck.”
Shadowless Ghost Hand glanced around and paused. “Do you understand?”
“I understand!” Everyone replied in unison.
Shadowless Ghost Hand nodded in satisfaction and left with Lance after giving some instructions.
Before leaving, Lance even took a few glances at Audrey before casually giving away the jade pendant he wore at his waist.
It was a symbol of his status as the lord of Spark City.
Lance had given this jade pendant away. He was almost certain that Audrey would stay behind during this temporary test so that the jade pendant could play its proper role.
Although he had given it to her lightly, it had caused another wave in Shadowless Ghost Hand’s heart.
Looking at his master, he did not seem to understand what he was thinking about miss Audrey.
Could it be that he was already so old… and still wanted to find a wife!?
Shadowless Ghost Hand gave Audrey a strange look before quickly leaving.
Kate pursed his lips as he watched Audrey accept Lance’s jade pendant. There was a hint of uneasiness in his eyes. “Audrey, when did you become so familiar with the lord of Spark City?”
“That’s right, that’s right, Audrey.” Hera was so excited that she could not extricate herself. This was the first time she had seen the lord become so angry and become so handsome. “When did you become so familiar with him?”
Audrey said helplessly, “Actually, I’m not really familiar with him. Him giving me the jade pendant… he might have his own reasons. Could he be trying to bribe me?”
That was not impossible.
Hera curled her lips and asked unwillingly, “Audrey, aren’t you moved when you see the lord’s handsomeness?”
“Moved? Heh.” Alice sneered from the side. If her venomous gaze could materialize, Audrey’s body would already be riddled with thousands of holes.
“So what if lord Lance is familiar with Audrey? The trials all depend on one’s strength. I don’t believe that you can survive the trials.”
“People who use the back door should act like they use the back door.”
Hera rolled her eyes and walked out. “Then wait and see. Just don’t cry when the time comes.”
Was it that difficult for this group of people to change their impression of Audrey?
