74: Chapter 19: Forcefully Shaking the Heavy Cavalry (Part 2)_1 74: Chapter 19: Forcefully Shaking the Heavy Cavalry (Part 2)_1 Fergerson’s gaze swept over the entire crowd, accepting the adoring stares of the students.
The wrinkles on his aged face piled up with his smile.
“The annual Freshman petition has once again reached its final stage, and I am delighted to see so many outstanding young people among this year’s freshmen.
I don’t wish to speak in grandiose terms, but I hope the students who have joined the Milan Magic Martial Academy this year will learn from these elite students who have entered the final stage.
The effort you put in today will be the capital that allows you to stand tall on the Ryuzakinus Continent in the future.”
Applause rose like thunder, and with the simple and straightforward speech of a Zi rank Powerhouse, the students, especially the new ones, gained a certain understanding of this elderly academy president, the Chief Court Mage of the Milan Empire.
Fergerson pressed his hands down in a placating gesture and the applause stopped.
“Next, a student from the Divine Music Department will perform ‘Rainbow Clothing.’ After this piece concludes, the petitors from both the Divine Music Department and the Heavy Cavalry Department should enter the field to begin the petition.
I will personally serve as the judge.”
A hundred tall and sturdy students from the Martial Arts Department quickly ran into the Central Trial Field from the side, setting down desks and wooden stools.
Then, a stunning sight appeared before all the teachers and students of the Milan Magic Martial Academy.
Dressed uniformly in pink long dresses, those with long hair gathered it into a ponytail behind their heads.
With light steps, graceful and lithe figures, and captivating delicate features, each figure was as dazzling as it was varied.
Leading the way was none other than Xiang Luan, the most beautiful woman of the Milan Magic Martial Academy.
Today, she looked especially radiant.
Her already peerless beauty, lightly enhanced, seemed like the creator’s most perfect work—almost no one could believe such perfection existed in the world.
The eighty-one Divine Music Department female students were all beautiful, but at this moment, the other eighty were destined to merely serve as her backdrop.
With starry eyes and a gentle smile, everything about her exuded perfection—the slender waist, the perfectly curved buttocks hidden beneath the skirt, and those astonishing long legs.
With each step forward, any adjective used to describe beauty seemed to pale in parison.
As “Rainbow Clothing” began to play, most people had yet to recover from the stunning impression left by Xiang Luan.
Eighty-one players, nearly twenty different instruments sounded simultaneously, with no magic of Divine Music Masters, just the moving music.
Xiang Luan sat before a desk, cradling a Pipa carved like jade, the core of the entire piece, with everyone else merely acpanying her.
Her fingers, like tender green onions, plucked gently, and the melody of “Rainbow Clothing” meandered forth.
With a few strokes and twists, the prelude to the song was filled with emotion.
From her, one could fully understand why the title of Divine Music Master was considered the most noble profession.
As the enchanting melody drifted from her hands, Ye Yinzhu murmured in amazement, “A dim dream barely formed, a gentle, winding voice enters at the break—it’s unexpected that Elder Sister Xiang Luan, with her straightforward temperament, has such a deep understanding of melody.”
Haiyang said, “Elder Sister Xiang Luan is the foremost among us in the Divine Music Department.
Others only know her as the top beauty, but how would they know, she is also a genius among Divine Music Masters?
She, a third-year student, has already achieved the Yellow-rank Advanced rank.
Even among the teachers in the Divine Music Department, few can pare to her.”
The loud strings boomed like heavy rain, the soft strings murmured like whispers.
Loud and soft played together in a tangled harmony, like pearls, large and small, falling onto a jade plate.
A crowd of thousands gathered, silenced by the piece “Rainbow Clothing” and its “mistress,” creating a dreamlike atmosphere that made everything seem somewhat unreal.
“Rainbow Clothing” ended amidst ethereal tones, and as Elder Sister Xiang Luan cradled the pipa and bowed towards the chairman’s platform, thunderous applause erupted, shaking the entire Milan Magic Martial Academy.
The Divine Music Department had never performed in front of students from other departments, all of them being of noble status.
Yet, this time, because of the Divine Music Department’s advancement in the freshman petition, their unprecedented performance left an indelible memory for the students of other departments.
Some even wondered, if the Divine Music Department won today’s match, what kind of performance would their cheerleading team put on?
Invisibly, a single piece, “Rainbow Clothing,” greatly boosted support for the Divine Music Department.
Elder Sister Xiang Luan passed by Ye Yinzhu and the other four, pausing in front of Yin Zhu with a smile, “Did you like it?”
Ye Yinzhu nodded subconsciously, “Senior Sister’s pipa playing is truly beautiful.”
Elder Sister Xiang Luan smiled proudly, “Although I don’t hold much hope for you, if you manage to win today’s match, I will dance ‘Rainbow Clothing’ just for you.
My dance is much stronger than my pipa playing.” With a laugh like silver bells, she gracefully drifted away under Ye Yinzhu’s stunned gaze.
A faint fragrance lingered on his nose, and a hint of amusement appeared in Ye Yinzhu’s eyes, sparkling with a confident and steadfast look as he walked alone towards the center of the trial field.
As Elder Sister Xiang Luan left, the Central Trial Field gradually fell silent, and at last, the final phase of the annual freshman petition was about to begin.
Everyone’s attention was entirely focused on the center of the Huge Training Field, watching as the opponents approached each other.
With his black hair flowing behind him, contrasting starkly against the pristine white of the Moon God’s Protection and bright, starry, clear eyes, Ye Yinzhu’s handsome and elegant face bore a slight smile as he calmly and confidently walked to the center.
In that moment, Ye Yinzhu seemed to have entered a strange rhythm, being part of the surrounding environment.
Heavy and powerful footsteps echoed as five tall, black figures approached Ye Yinzhu head-on from another direction.
Next to them, Ye Yinzhu seemed incredibly small.
The five men, all blond, were clad in thick black armor, resembling five moving fortresses.
They appeared to be at least two meters tall, with broad shoulders and resolute faces emanating a fierce aura.
Equipped with the standard five-meter Heavy Cavalry Lance and the two-meter broadsword, hanging respectively at their waists and on the loops of their mounts’ wings, their immense presence was palpable; they were the center of attention in the arena.
Ye Yinzhu had seen the mounts of the five men before.
The three in the center rode Machino the Iron Dragons, nearly three meters tall and over five meters in length, the giant bodies seemingly radiating an invisible ferocity.
bined with the knights’ two-meter height and massive build, they resembled the Dragon Cavalry Ye Yinzhu had previously seen in Milan City, their aura even more overwhelming.
The other two knights’ mounts were Eric Minlong, smaller in size than Machino the Iron Dragons but also much more agile.
The standard configuration of five Dragon Cavalry members made the Martial Arts Department’s students nearly scream in madness.
In any country, the Dragon Cavalry was the absolute premier military force.
Both Machino the Iron Dragons and Eric Minlong, although more numerous among tamed dragons, were each worth more than ten thousand gold coins.
Their mere presence on the academy’s battleground, with their invisible dominance, far overshadowed the Divine Music Department, represented by Ye Yinzhu alone.
On the chairman’s platform, Nina’s expression changed, and she snorted coldly, speaking indifferently, “The Heavy Cavalry Department really brought out their hidden treasures.
They might as well have brought out some real giant dragons for these students.”
