Chapter 44: Azure Falls into the Yellow Springs (Part 1)

  The sixth and seventh ranked warriors of the first grade joined forces, but were instantly defeated by Qianjin, who is currently temporarily ranked eighth, and were so defeated that they couldn't even speak.

  Rodriguez excitedly clenched his fists, living up to his expectations as a student who not only excelled in one-on-one combat but also emerged victorious instantly!

  "He's really too handsome!" Rodriguez laughed happily, his eyes returning to the battlefield, only to find that Qianjin had already left without knowing when. The badges on Zelda and Fabukaras' chests were also taken away by Qianjin at the same time.

  "Is he blacksmithing again? This time, swinging the hammer with both arms?" Principal Fick narrowed his dry, old eyes, deep in thought: "Has this kid been a blacksmith before? No way! Blacksmiths can only use one arm to hammer, right? How come this kid's movements with both arms are so practiced? Does he think it's some kind of awesome fighting technique?"

  The Dean of Studies swung his arm and walked quickly into the small woods, leaving only a few senior students to savor the battle. The two who had just lost didn't even get a glance from him. It was clear that no one in their first year could be his match, except perhaps for Dak, the top-ranked student.

  Rodriguez didn't leave immediately, instead he propped his chin with one hand and fell into deep thought. How long had it been since he started practicing? He was already at the fifth level of Dou Qi! In theory, that also made him a fifth-level warrior! Didn't this mean that in terms of pure Dou Qi, he was now on the same level as himself, his own teacher?!

  "Ah, I've got a good eye for this! I'm really looking forward to it, the momentum of third grade, maybe we'll create a legend at Oakland and Magic Warrior Academy? Become the first warrior to be admitted to the prestigious Grimbold Magic and Warrior High School! That's one of humanity's most famous academies, rivaling the Demon King Academy!"

  "Ah! I told you, duels are so boring." Kanji retracted his fist and shook his neck from side to side, patting the two stunned challengers: "You guys did okay, keep trying and you'll get better."

  In the small woods, a quiet atmosphere prevailed. Several senior warrior students were also unable to speak loudly for a while. The brief and intense battle just now was indeed thrilling.

  "Brother-in-law..." Luo Lin's excited shout broke the silence of the small woods.

  "Get out!" With a swift kick, he booted Roland's plump buttocks.

  "Alright, I'm leaving, so you can be my sister's husband?"

  "Classmate, I understand your eagerness to marry off your sister, but you can't push friends into an abyss."

  "Classmate, just give up, I won't harm you..."

  "I give up! I'm out of here!" Qianjin turned around and took off, jumping several times before disappearing into the woods.

  "Classmate..." Luo Lin stroked his chubby chin, his smiling eyes narrowing into a thin line as he stared at the spot where Qian Jin had disappeared: "You will definitely become my sister's husband."

  At night, the full moon is high in the sky.

  The Auckland Magic and Warrior Academy, on the other hand, was relatively quiet compared to the hustle and bustle of the day, with students having gone to bed early after a day of study and training.

  He grasped the two badges he had just won tightly in his hand, feeling extremely pleased, and ran out of the small woods with a skip.

  Two badges, representing a significant step closer to the center of the Dou Ling Great Array. Qian Jin had previously not wanted to get involved in this tedious ranking competition, but now that he's involved, he doesn't care about pretending to be low-key and withdrawing.

  Since trouble can't be avoided, Jian Jin didn't bother to hide anymore. The iron-forging skills he applied in battle turned out to be surprisingly useful, which made him extremely delighted.

  Humming a little tune, Gan Jing suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked far into the distance under the moonlight. He found that at the location of the well, there was a familiar figure, as well as two completely unfamiliar, tall figures.

  "What's wrong?"

  Qian Jin looked at the moonlight, hiding behind two tall and sturdy warrior students, her hands tightly covering the large magic hat, Bi Luo was slightly stunned. At this time, she should be meditating as a magician, why did she come to the well where people washed their clothes again?

  "I say, Bì Luò, aren't you tired of wearing that big hat all day? Why not take it off and let's see just how ugly you are? Don't worry, even though it's late at night, no matter how ugly you are, I won't shout out loud that I've seen a ghost."

  "Why don't you pick? That's because you don't treat us as classmates! This makes us very sad. You have to compensate us, either let us watch or do our laundry, choose one yourself."

  Under the night sky, two boys with arrogant tones frequently spoke up, Bi Lu covered her big hat with both hands, she lowered her head and dodged back and forth, saying in a timid tone: "You... you said last time, as long as I wash your clothes once, you won't bully me again..."

  "We didn't bully you." The warrior student, with a buzz cut and his upper body exposed, showing off his robust physique, which was half a head taller than Qian Jing, gently pulled on Bi Luo's magic hat, smiling as if teasing a little dog: "We were just concerned about our classmate. But you didn't appreciate our kindness and hurt us again."

  "Right, right!" A robust warrior student with a hairstyle resembling a rice paddy and a sturdy build, slightly taller than Qian Jin, said with his arms crossed in front of his chest: "You've hurt our feelings by caring about us. You should compensate us by washing our clothes. Otherwise, we'll forcibly take off your hat..."

  "Don't... " Bi Luo's voice trembled slightly, her hands pressing down on the hat even harder, her words choked with sobs: "Is this the last time you'll be doing laundry for us?"

  "Of course... it's definitely the last time."

  Two warrior students revealed victorious smiles, and even from a distance, Keen could see clearly that the eyes of these two people were not filled with sincere gazes, but rather were full of playful teasing, just like... just like...

  "It's just like the gaze of that old man I despise the most!" Qian Jin slightly furrowed his brow, this gaze evoking a very unpleasant memory for him.

  If it were in the past, seeing something that has nothing to do with oneself. Qianjin would usually just close his eyes, cover his ears with both hands, and leave as if he hadn't seen anything.

  Sense of justice? Gan Jing never thought of himself as a hero who saves people in distress, he was just a loser who woke up to the awareness of his own blood.
