This is the last sentence Rick heard from Xin before he lost consciousness.
"It hurts..." Rick, who was lying on the bed, turned sideways, his bones all over his body as if they were about to fall apart. He opened his eyes in pain, and a woman in black robe and a blond man appeared in front of him.
"Tutor Elena..." After a close look, he saw Elena's paralyzed face clearly. Rick looked at the blonde man standing by the bed with his hands on his chest, "Mihael."
Michelle had a bruise on her face. This was the mark that was hit by Rick's fist a few days ago, but she was no longer slapped. He scratched his blonde hair and said, "I went to the Magician Academy in person and invited your tutor over."
Elena remained silent, and the hand pressed on Rick's chest was stained with a light blue glow. She was using water-based healing techniques to heal him.
Rick smiled bitterly, "Brother, thank you!"
Mihair rolled his eyes, "Don't thank your mentor?"
After saying oh, Rick was about to thank Elena. Her indifferent words "Don't talk" stopped him from thinking.
"You fell from the air without any protective measures, and you broke several bones all over your body. Your injuries have improved in the past two days. I guess you will be able to get out of bed and move tomorrow." Elena said expressionlessly, as if she couldn't lift her energy at all.
Rick felt warm in his heart. The more he dealt with Elena, the more he would have, it would be easier to find that this face was average, but the perfect young female mentor is a cold-hearted person. She would never say things to care about people, and would only heal you silently and worry about you secretly.
Elena glanced at her eyes and said coldly: "What are you staring at me? I'm not interested in you guys who have just grown up."
Rick smiled awkwardly and shook his head helplessly. He was silent for a while and suddenly asked, "Teacher, do you mean I've been in a coma for two days?"
"It's already very good to be in a coma for two days. If you can wake up under such a high-intensity electric shock, it's the goddess' blessing. This beautiful mentor, do you think Kyle will leave any sequelae?" Mihair said in the air.
However, Elena did not answer him, seeing that she was ignored. Mihair tilted his mouth and made himself bored.
"Where is the freshman competition?" Rick asked, sitting up, putting his hand on the back of Elena's hand, moving her hand away from her chest.
Elena was obviously not used to others touching her hands. She shook all over and her face became very strange. She glared at Rick, then put her hands casually on her beautiful legs and replied: "Tomorrow is the final of the freshman tournament."
Rick scratched his head embarrassedly. He just wanted Elena to take a break for a while, so he pushed her hand away without thinking too much.
"Which two people entered the final?" Rick quickly brought the topic to the freshman competition and asked Michelle.
"It must be Xin and Xiuyin. These two monsters are finally going to decide the outcome, so I'm really looking forward to it." Michel looked at Rick and smiled and said, "I'll hit the nail on the head this time. Kyle, by the way, this is your first defeat."
Rick smiled and said indifferently: "I am very satisfied to be in the top ten. With my current strength, it is impossible to defeat Xin."
"Wait, I've been in a coma for two days. Then wouldn't I give up on the next game? So, I'm very likely to be out of the top ten." Rick suddenly realized a big problem.
"Oh. Don't worry, the top ten competitions are particularly fierce. Everyone is fighting desperately, and it is inevitable that they will take heavy moves. There are several like you who only participated in the first top ten competitions, and then they were injured and disabled..."
Listening to Michel's indifferent tone, Rick felt a chill.
"Thankfully, your final ranking is exactly tenth." Mihair clapped alone.
Rick breathed a sigh of relief. He actually didn't have much idea about joining the Wings of Mickey. After all, no matter how outstanding his performance was, the strength of these eighth-level swordsmans was always flawed. Rick tried his best to enter the top ten just to give An Jie an explanation and prove that his students were qualified to join the organization.
"Mihael, what about you?" Rick felt extremely relaxed as if he had put down a big rock in his heart.
Mihair was slightly stunned and cursed, "You little brat, you know how to care about me!" As he said that, he hugged Rick's neck again, until the latter shouted, "I'm going to die!", and he stopped and said seriously: "I am so strong, so naturally I entered the top ten. I accidentally won a few games, and the final ranking was fourth, which is not bad!"
Rick's eyes lit up. With Michel's real strength, it was already very good to finish fourth, especially for him who had only returned to the top ten after experiencing the harsh knockout round.
"Then who did you lose in the end?" Rick smiled.
Mihair's face turned dark and said angrily: "Bastard, can't you ask who I defeated?"
Looking at Rick's smile-like expression, Michel sighed and said, "It's Xiuyin..."
Mihaier seemed to have fallen into bad memories and said in a low voice: "This guy is very strong, I am no match for him at all... The ninth-level great swordsman is indeed not a frank reputation."
"It's really unlucky for us to be together. You met Xin, and I met Xiuyin, alas..."
"Okay, we've all worked hard. As for whether we can join the Wings of Mickey, it's not something we can decide." Rick patted Michelle on the shoulder and comforted him.
"My father is a senior executive of the college... It's okay to bring his son into the secret organization of the college." Mihair glanced at Elena sitting next to Rick. He originally wanted to say "These mentors will sell my father's face", but when he saw her cold face, Mihair still resisted and said it without showing off.
"I will fight for you, Kyle," Elena said lightly.
"No need, mentor Elena, joining Mingx is still too forced for me now." Rick honestly said what he thought.
Elena did not insist, but nodded and said, "From the perspective of a tutor, I hope you can join this organization. The members of Necks are equivalent to VIPs among students and can enjoy the treatment of mentors. And as your tutor, I will also feel honored..."
She suddenly changed her mind and said coldly: "But from my personal perspective, the members of the Wings of the Mingx are just tragic slaves who work hard for the nobles and the academy..."
Rick and Mihail were shocked at the same time. They did not expect that as exclusive tutors of the academy would criticize the academy's organization so maliciously.
"The so-called Mingx Wings is actually a mercenary organization founded by the Academy to serve the princes and nobles..." Elena looked at Michel, who looked a little ugly. She continued: "They give the college benefits and the college benefits students. Then once these students join Mingx Wings, it is equivalent to doing things for these nobles."
"Actually, this is nothing." Rick, who has been a mercenary, does not think there is anything wrong with it.
"Nothing? If you don't go into it, the tasks assigned by these colleges on the surface are indeed normal to call "hardening students' practical ability." Elena seems to have a lot of opinions about this organization, "But if someone unconsciously explores the true meaning of these tasks, once it threatens the interests of the college, then..."
Before he finished speaking, Rick was shocked and immediately realized it.
He simply regarded joining the Wings of Mickey as a kind of glory that would make the two mentors Anger and Elena look bright on their faces, and did not think deeply about the meaning of the existence of this organization.
"Kyle, don't listen to her. The Wings of Mickey is a special training camp carefully prepared by the Academy for the best students. How could so many conspiracies come from?" Michel ignored Elena who was beside her and said unhappily: "This woman has never joined the Wings of Mickey. Who knows so many."
Elena was not angry about Mihair's targeted words, but smiled slightly.
"Miheer, don't be rude." Rick winked at Miheer, signaling him to give his mentor some face.
"Young Master Mihaier said that, maybe I'm thinking too much..." Elena stood up and said goodbye to the two of them. Then she left the room.
"What a weird woman." Mihair murmured at her graceful back.
"Just get used to it..." Rick sighed. He didn't want his friend to have conflicts with his mentor, so he changed the subject and said, "I've been lying in bed for so long, and my bones have hurt so much. Why not go out and have a walk."
When Mihair heard about going out to play, his eyes lit up and he suddenly felt excited, "Okay, okay, to celebrate your physical recovery, let's go to the Santo Hotel to relax. Well, Phirus will definitely be very happy."
"What's so happy about him? Every time you go, you pick good wine and food, and you don't pay the bill." Rick rolled his eyes.
"Oh, why are you doing this? Let's go." After that, Michel recklessly pulled Rick up.
"Prepare to call Diego, maybe that guy Aaron will come too, um, um," Michel said to himself.
When Rick's thought that it was not only Diego who could not live without his life when drinking, but even Prince Aaron was also a drunkard who was addicted to alcohol, Rick's face changed and he sighed inwardly.
I'm going to be drunk again tonight...
Swordsman Academy.
The oval field constructed like the Colosseum of Rome was full of students from the Swordsman Academy. Most of them were nobles, sitting together in groups. Although the next one was not a bloody battle like the Battle of the Beast, the showdown between the two strongest freshmen still made them very excited.
Rick sat alone, the people beside him chatting and discussing, which made his head hurt again.
Through last night's struggle, Michelle was already drunk and died of being in bed. If Rick hadn't made excuses to escape in the middle, he would probably have not seen this final today.
And Anjie didn't come either. Perhaps because he didn't want to see Tehuoes, Rick sat bored in the audience, waiting for the showdown between Xin and Xiuyin.
"Can I sit here?"
Rick was slightly surprised and turned his head to see a tall young man looking at him with a smile.
The man had long black hair head to shoulder, bright eyes and two sharp black eyebrows like a slender dagger. The unique silver headdress on his forehead was not strange, but added to the charm of a man in white. He rolled up half of his sleeves, and the muscle lines on his firm arms exposed outside were clear and beautiful, with vitality.
Such a man who gave people the first impression of being extraordinary is that he had an ancient aristocratic temperament, and his elegant smile was as charming as Jack.
Rick's eyes lit up, but he noticed that the man's headdress was inlaid with a blue-quality space stone in the center of the headdress on his forehead.
Nouveau riche... Rick sighed secretly.
Seeing that the man was still looking at him and waiting for a reply, Rick hurriedly said, "Of course, please sit down."
The man nodded, sat beside Rick, looked at him, and said, "Are you alone?"
After a huh, Rick looked at the man carefully. This person did not feel as tender as a freshman, but seemed mature and steady. "Aren't you a freshman?"
"Haha, you can see it at a glance. I am a third-year student at Knights Academy." The man smiled.
Why did the Knights Academy run over to watch the Swords Academy competition? Rick laughed and said, "So it's the senior!"
"Just call me Jim."
"In Lower Kyle."
Jim nodded, "Kyle is a freshman at Swordsman Academy, right? I don't know how many places it ranked in the competition."
"To be precise, it should be from the Magic Swordsman Academy. Well, I'm lucky enough to enter the top ten." Rick said embarrassedly.
He knew that if he hadn't been lucky enough to have an opponent bye in the game and directly advanced from the top 40 to the top 20, and then Mihair deliberately let the water go to the top 10.
"Even if it's luck, being able to rank among so many geniuses from all corners of the mainland is a symbol of strength." Jim smiled.
Rick laughed and said nothing.
At this time, the black-clothed referee had arrived at the center of the field. He glanced around and made sure the venue was correct. He nodded to Caboron on the rostrum.
"Then, please invite the two best players from this freshman competition to play." Caboron smiled and said, "Sin Aska and Seoin Lerelujah Aios."
The freshmen in the audience seemed to be divided into two camps. The Swordsman Academy shouted "Xingyin", while the Swordsman Academy shouted "Xin".
"Lerelujah?" Rick murmured in confusion.
"The nobles of the Cato Empire would join Cato between their nouns and surnames, and the surname of the royal family was Santiara;" Knowing that Rick was a foreigner, Jim explained enthusiastically: "And the nobles of the Lion Empire were named Lerelujah," he looked at Shuin below and said, "As for Aios, it is the surname of their royal family."
Rick said oh, and after Jim said so much, he understood that this gray-robed man Xiu was originally the prince of the Lion Empire.
"Minx Higher College is so good..." When he thought of the Lion Empire, one of the three empires, also sent the prince to the Holy Capital of the Cato Empire for further study, Rick couldn't help but feel that this aerial academy deserves to be known as the top higher academy in the continent.
"No wonder many people racked their brains to step into the gate of the Sky Academy. It seems that they can easily reach high-ranking people from various countries here." Rick thought to himself.
"The game has begun," Jim reminded.
Rick came to his senses and immediately focused on the two people in the middle of the field.
Chapter completed!
