After delivering lunch to Kaiwen, Lin Guang set out for the battle arena, preparing to et Chelina.
Today's training room and ditation pod sessions would be held later.
Because Lin Guang had an appointnt at the battle arena in the afternoon.
And the opponent was his senior in the final year, Leng Shengnan, also one of the school team mbers for this year, who wielded the Ice Fairy with a talent for the sequence number 973 [Frost Power].
In fact, there had been such a session every afternoon for the past few days.
The main purpose was to serve as a sparring partner for Chelina.
After deciding to participate in this year's provincial competition, Leng Shengnan was quite delighted and proactively contacted Lin Guang to discuss the school team matters.
Upon learning so details about Chelina, she thought for a while and suggested she could act as a sparring partner.
Lin Guang and Chelina accepted her goodwill after discussing.
After all, Chelina, having undergone transformation and plagued by pain, had been couriering for over a year and had beco almost unfamiliar with her own body, nearly forgetting how to battle, retaining only strong instincts.
Even though those instincts were quite strong, they differed greatly from freely controlling one's body.
Thus, Chelina decided to regain her battle experience and awareness to fight for Lin Guang.
Although Leng Shengnan had so discrepancies in configuration compared to Lin Guang, she was genuinely a year ahead in training, with the Ice Fairy as her Spirit Beast companion (raised from childhood). In terms of strength, she was suitable to be Lin Guang's sparring partner, which was quite helpful for Chelina's rehabilitation.
Of course, leaving Chelina and Lin Guang alone, Vishdair was naturally sowhat displeased. Despite appearing unconcerned on the surface and agreeing to stay with Lisa in Kaiwen's training room to hone her skill proficiency according to the plan, Lin Guang would get a little swipe on the calf from her slender demon tail before leaving.
It really did have so pain.
…
Wearing a black and white maid outfit, the slender wolf-eared girl stood at the bustling entrance of the battle arena.
Her straight and beautiful legs were wrapped in thin black stockings, complented by a grace that seed unreal, combined with an exceptionally delicate yet slightly aloof face, she appeared as a devoted wolf-eared maid awaiting her master, attracting the gazes of countless passersby.
Suddenly, her wolf ears twitched a bit, and her tail subtly swayed left and right. Her orange-red eyes focused on a certain figure, then she quickly stepped forward, greeting softly in Daxia Language.
"Master."
Upon hearing this, all those gazes turned into envy, jealousy, and resentnt, gathering on the young man…
Then they basically scattered.
——It's Lin Guang, well that's fine, such a beauty indeed only belongs to such a strong person.
Having just gotten off the school bus and reached the entrance of the battle arena, Lin Guang rubbed his forehead, sighing lightly: "Actually, I feel that outside, you don't need to do this... It's a bit too disrespectful to yourself."
Lin Guang had suggested wearing casual clothing when they went out during the day, but Chelina insisted on confronting them in wolf maid form.
"No, it's fine."
Chelina spoke calmly yet earnestly: "This is part of my duty as a partner, part of the deal, I swore by my surna."
"You can do whatever you want, without considering my feelings."
Luckily, these words were spoken in Terra Language; otherwise, who knows how explosive the reaction of the people next to them would be.
Lin Guang felt a slight headache, just about to say sothing when he suddenly lifted his head, his expression turning a bit subtle, looking towards the battle arena's interior.
The battle arena was divided into many areas, mostly sealed to prevent external interference.
Although those nearby classmates seed oblivious, with his perception ability, Lin Guang clearly sensed sothing unusual in the largest arena.
At that mont, soone was battling in that arena, with two familiar spiritual powers and ethereal fluctuations colliding.
And the most crucial thing was…
That was the arena Lin Guang had booked for today.
"Is it Senior Leng and… Du Qing?"
Lin Guang was slightly surprised, accompanying Chelina to walk over quickly.
Swiping the card to unlock multiple layers of security, the familiar battlefield, capable of freely flipping, appeared in view, seeing two figures standing there confronting each other from afar.
One girl had neat short hair, sharp eyebrows, and defined features, clearly the senior Leng Shengnan from the final year, the forr captain of the school team, who voluntarily stepped aside after Lin Guang chose to join the school team over a dozen days ago.
The other was wearing an oversized black windbreaker, with an extravagant bandage wrapped around her left hand.
It was indeed Du Qing, a true disciple of the Celestial Star Sect.
It could be seen that the atmosphere between the two seed sowhat unfriendly, ignoring Du Qing's naturally cold deanor, Leng Shengnan's face carried so coldness, her eyes seemingly glinted with a hint of discontent. A small creature wearing a cloak floated beside her, its translucent little face seemingly a bit crestfallen under the cloak.
Lin Guang looked past the two, towards the center of the battle arena.
There, the ground was coated with a thick layer of ice, with many ice pillars and ice spikes rising up from the ground, appearing exceptionally beautiful under the starlight and holy light lingering in the air.
This also indicated that the battle sensed earlier had thoroughly ended.
Senior Leng… undoubtedly lost.
Even without seeing the unyielding look in Leng Shengnan's eyes, Lin Guang on the way over already sensed the outco—the light attribute ether ultimately strongly suppressed the coldness, making the outco quite clear.
However, why was Du Qing here?
Lin Guang originally thought Du Qing ca to find him for another battle, but then rembered today was September 1st, shouldn't Du Qing be back in Nanhai City for school?
Without any clue, Lin Guang stopped thinking about it, walking over to the two of them.
Seeing Lin Guang arrive, the coldness on Leng Shengnan's face seed to thaw a bit, while the arrogance in Du Qing's eyes also diminished slightly, folding his arms, nodding to greet Lin Guang.
This surprised Lin Guang even more.
He thought, given Du Qing's character, he would have said sothing absurdly childish upon seeing him, yet it was unexpectedly normal, not knowing what had gone wrong.
However, the absence of those awkward words was surely a good thing, so Lin Guang didn't dwell on it but instead asked, "Why are you here?"
At this, a subtle expression flashed across Du Qing's face, but he quickly recovered, answering, "I've transferred here, next year we will participate in the provincial competition together."
"?"
Yesterday evening, Principal Liu ntioned there would be a "surprise" waiting for him today... So this was the surprise?
A legitimate, talented level teammate?
Previously, Principal Liu was lanting about not recruiting any talents yet, unexpectedly Du Qing transferred to the lab soon after.
If true, having a teammate of Du Qing's level could indeed greatly alleviate his pressure in the provincial competition.
But Lin Guang certainly couldn't credit everything to Liu Feifan.
Given Du Qing's unique personality, it might be a self-motivated action.
... Could it be because of the duel they had?
Lin Guang thought about it, feeling uneasy, then straightforwardly asked, "What's your goal?"
"..."
Du Qing fell silent briefly.
Lin Guang was speechless as well.
This attitude didn't seem too willing, though Lin Guang didn't understand the reason, he might have [been] voluntarily directed here.
"I need to warn you." Du Qing suddenly said seriously, "The next provincial competition is no joke."
"This ti, the competition has many strong contenders and divine beasts, with holy beasts drawing attention, making it extrely significant, hence nearly all major sects in Fenghai Province are preparing for it. The number of high-grade talented geniuses participating is almost at its peak in decades."
Du Qing glanced at Lin Guang's companion, Chelina, who had previously suppressed him and the Six-winged Holy Light Beast. His gaze fell on her maid outfit with a subtle expression, filled with so confusion, mixed with a hint of envy, ultimately turning his gaze back: "Even though you can participate in the provincial competition the year after, with your strength, it's impossible to have no thoughts on ranking, am I right?"
Beside him, Leng Shengnan's face seed even more frustrated.
Lin Guang asked, "What do you an?"
