Chapter 514: Inter-academy Tournament (4)
Xie Yun cleared his throat. “You know what? That student suddenly returned to the academy, and at the final moment of the tryout, he went up there and almost knocked the teeth out of that kid, Cao Xu. The headmaster of the Swordsman Division never thought that his star pupil would come back again. He was happy that the student was back, but from what I heard, the student only agreed to come along for the ride. He does not have any intention to win.”
Luo De nodded, but he had many thoughts on his mind. He could understand how the head of the Swordsman Division felt.
The recently returned star pupil was better than Cao Xu, but he was not competitive. If he only wanted to have fun there, then it would not have mattered if he were there or not.
No wonder the headmaster of the Swordsman Division was so troubled.
“Well, who is the Swordsman Division’s star pupil? Why didn’t I see him on my way here?” Luo De asked with curiosity.
Xie Yun looked at Luo De with an odd expression and beckoned him closer with his fingers. Then, Xie Yun whispered something into Luo De’s ear.
The doubt on Luo De’s face immediately escalated to terror.
“How can it be him?!” The world was a strange place, indeed!
Xie Yun shrugged.
“He is not our student, anyway. Don’t bother yourself with this.”
The two headmasters ceased their gossip and then went back to their respective rooms.
Night fell, but Blizzard City was still alive with activities.
A carriage galloped at full speed whooshed toward the gate of Blizzard City and stopped right in front of it. Four figures, one adult and three kids, hopped off the wagon.
“Is this the place?” Shen Yanxiao raised her head and looked at the two words of ‘Blizzard City’ engraved on top of the city gate. She felt like she could finally breathe.
Luckily, Blizzard City was not too far away from the Saint Laurent Academy; she would not have been able to make it otherwise.
“Yes.” Yun Qi had mixed feelings as he looked at the name on the gate.
Once upon a time, warlocks would frequent the fighting arenas there. However, one would not even be able to find even one warlock in the entire city.
“Sister, there are so many people here.” Lan Fengli stood behind Shen Yanxziao, and he tugged at the corner of her clothes. He looked at the scene with his widened eyes. He was uneasy as he glanced at the streets ablaze with lights. Somehow, he did not like the hustle and bustle of large crowds.
“Don’t be afraid. It’s okay.” Shen Yanxiao comforted Lan Fengli as she thought about questions that bothered her.
Since she had been too occupied, there might be some points that she had missed. She was at the village as a young man, so why did Lang Fengli address her as ‘sister’? He should have called him ‘brother’.
“Xiao Feng.” Shen Yanxiao turned toward Lang Fengli. “Why do you call me sister?”
Lang Fengli blinked. Puzzled by the question, he tilted his head to look at Shen Yanxiao.
“No reason. You are my sister.”
Shen Yanxiao was speechless. Fine, never mind.
However…
When Lang Fengli had just woken up, he muttered something about two birds. One of the birds should be the little Phoenix, but the Vermilion Bird was in his human form. How would Lang Fengli know about the Vermilion Bird’s original form?
The two questions confused Shen Yanxiao.
Was that a trait from the other blood in him? Could he see through one’s appearance to perceive the truth?
Shen Yanxiao could only speculate; she did not know for sure.
“Teacher, are we going to find the Saint Laurent Academy team now?” She decided to leave the questions aside. Shen Yanxiao shifted her attention to the competition instead.
