The Good-for-Nothing Seventh Miss - Chapter 515
Chapter 515: Inter-academy Tournament (5)
Yun Qi shook his head.
“No. For now, I don’t want you to show up in front of Ouyang Huanyu. That old, sly fox is too kind and accommodating. I have a feeling that he is up to something.” It was not like Ouyang Huanyu to allow the warlock division’s participation in the competition.
Shen Yanxiao gave Yun Qi a thumbs up. Yun Qi’s instinct was accurate. When she was in the dean’s office, Shen Yanxiao had heard the conversation between Ouyang Huanyu and that man in black. She knew that Ouyang Huanyu was generous because he wanted to lure her out.
She would not want to reveal her identity if it was not necessary.
“But…” To not want exposure was one thing. How would they participate in the competition if they did not meet Ouyang Huanyu?
Yun Qi laughed. “Don’t worry. In the past competitions, the corresponding divisions from different academies would compete first, like Magus versus Magus, Swordsman with Swordsman. They would select a winner to enter the final round. Now, only the Saint Laurent Academy has a Warlock Division. In other words, you can wait until the final round to show up. You don’t have to worry about that until then.”
“Is that so?” Shen Yanxiao did not even need to go through the preliminary contests to enter the final round! Shen Yanxiao was not sure if she should feel lucky for her good fortune or upset about the warlock profession’s solitude.
“Why not? In the meantime, we can observe the other contestants so that you can better understand them. That way, you won’t be at a disadvantage during the final round,” Yun Qi proposed.
Since she did not have to register so early, Shen Yanxiao freed herself from the concerns that she had. She was already in Blizzard City, so she would be able to participate in the competition.
The four decided to find a place to stay since they did not have to join the others from the Saint Laurent Academy.
Shen Yanxiao remembered to pick up Lan Fengli and the Vermilion Bird before she left. She would not rest easy when those two were together.
She thought she just might as well take them both with her. Yun Qi did not ask many questions about the presence of those two boys.
He had adopted a fully nonchalant attitude. Shen Yanxiao could bring them along as long as it was something she wanted.
He must have been the most relaxed teacher ever.
Lan Fengli tugged at a corner of Shen Yanxiao’s clothes. He was not too clingy, but he would not step away from her, either. He was not aware that the Vermilion Bird was about to shoot fire from his eyes.
Nights at Blizzard City were as boisterous as always. The shops on both sides of the road dazzled as shopkeepers displayed their goods, but most of the shops sold weapons and potions.
Since it was a city where every corner could be turned into a fighting arena, suitable weapons and healing potions were always in demand.
Shen Yanxiao and her other three companions were dressed in simple clothing. They wanted to blend with the crowd.
Shen Yanxiao also wore a disguise mask, so nobody would throw her a second glance. Yun Qi’s elderly look would not invite attention, either.
However, the delicate and handsome Lan Fengli and the Vermilion Bird did command many female’s attention.
“Those two guys are so cute!”
“I just want to go and squeeze their cheeks!”
Lan Fengli tightened his grasp on Shen Yanxiao’s clothes when he noticed the women’s attention on him. He followed Shen Yanxiao nervously, as he tried to hide behind Shen Yanxiao’s delicate figure.
The Vermilion Bird was annoyed. The two things he hated the most were carriages and women!
Otherwise, he would not have yielded when Shen Yanxiao threatened to kiss him.
