Chapter 1071 Drawing Lots
Game Time AM07:12
Academy City Outer Ring District, Lobby of the Linyin Inn
Experienced the story of 'people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles', "Would you like to have a sweet love with your sister?" After the incident, the group began to enjoy the meal in a rather leisurely atmosphere. For breakfast, it's just a group of people. In fact, it's just Mo Tan, Jadeka, Ji Xiaoge, Yaya, and Liadrin. Due to work and rest reasons, the two masters of Artisan Town have to go out on the road at lunch time at the earliest. Gavin Ladd, Kevin and other young people from the Diesel family will act together with the participating teachers and students of the White Oath Knight Academy.
"Mo Wang, Wang wants to eat that steak..."
The sleepy Ya Ya lay limply next to Mo Tan, twitching his nose and muttering something without even opening his eyes.
"Ya Ya! Don't eat so greasy breakfast!"
While Ji Xiaoge was seriously educating Ya Ya about physical health, he subconsciously set the latter's goal... That is, the piece of meat steak was placed on the plate in front of Yaya.
Jadeka smacked his lips and thoughtfully asked Mo Tan, who rarely had breakfast with everyone: "Should I eat less greasy food? After all, as a mage... "
"As a mage, Lao Jia, you are healthy enough."
Mo Tan reluctantly interrupted his old friend's worries, turned around and said with a smile: "So you can really consider lowering the intensity of your 'morning exercise' a little, such as doing less than 200 sets of squats, and eating your food first."< br>
“This… …”
Sweating a few meters away from the dining table... Although I really want to say this, in fact, Jadeka, who didn’t shed a drop of sweat, frowned, then stood up straight with some tangle, and walked to Sitting next to Mo Tan, there was nothing He puffed up his cheeks while eating rice with impeccable table manners and said: "I'm just worried that if I neglect to exercise, I won't be able to withstand the backlash of the elements in the future. As you know, Mo, with Little Pigeon's high-purity fire element crystals, I can't stand it these days." A month is a leap Come on."
Ji Xiaoge immediately gave the old mage a hard look: "That's the seasoning!"
"Oh... but No, seasoning.”
Wang Badan, who was lying in the doorway basking in the sun, rolled his eyes and muttered: "Even the rice can be given seasonings that melt into carbide."
In view of its very good volume control, so Ji Xiaoge didn't hear the second half of the sentence, so he just glared at Wang Badan with the same ferocity instead of taking out a bottle of spicy powder and pouring it into his mouth.
"Seriously, Lao Jia, I know a mage who is at the same level as you now."
Mo Tan slowly took a sip of the coffee Ji Xiaoge brewed for him (similar to instant coffee) , so non-toxic and harmless), he said seriously to the worried old man: "A conservative estimate is that your physical fitness is a hundred times stronger than hers."
"Ouch! Is it true or not?"< br>
"I won't lie."
"Then she has to pay attention to her health. Are you familiar with it? If so, why not teach me the morning exercise method I am used to..."
" No, it’s better not to do it. After all, that person most likely won’t take it. Do it, if you do it... Tsk tsk."
"What will happen if you do it?"
[Then I can win without a fight, after all, if Futaba is like If you practice like this, you will definitely train yourself to death. 】
Mo Tan complained in his heart, but didn't say much. He just shook his head slightly and continued to enjoy the breakfast, which was not very hungry but was very good in both quality and quantity. He decided to ask the chef of Linyin Inn Eat more before being driven crazy by Ji Xiaoge, who should have some time off.
All in all, as I just said, the atmosphere at breakfast was quite relaxed.
If we exclude Liadrin Bloodmaple L. Diesel who has been silently eating since just now...
She is acting as Diesel The guide of the family delegation came to the Linyin Inn to take Mo Tan and others to the competition site. Although Jadeka knew the competition venue and there was a whole stack of Academy City maps in the hotel lobby, Gavin Rad still took Li Adeline sent her here, and she understands the reason.
Then, although she was reluctant on the surface, she actually did not reject the decision of her team leader, so she came over early.
Then, she was struck by the first person she met here, Ms. Ye Ge, a core member of the Artisan Town delegation and also a core member of the Wangwang team.
If Miss Liadrin had not been able to subconsciously give up an idea deep in her heart even though she thought she was inferior to Yaya in all aspects, especially without the latter's cuteness, then when When she saw this 'Yege girl' and realized that she was also one of the core members of the Wangwang team who had been with 'Mo' day and night, the impact she felt in her heart was really hard to describe in words.
In addition to the pigeons involved, both Mo Tan, Jadeka and the half-asleep Yaya were keenly aware of this.
In order to avoid greater confusion, Mo Tan did not give any superfluous explanation, although deep down in his heart he actually rejected this specious misunderstanding. After all, as a 'Black Brahma', he himself was a warning, you know His title of 'His Royal Highness Wangyu's old friend' has been completely spread in the Holy Religion Union.
Jadka wisely chose silence because he knew very well that nothing could happen between Liadrin and Silence, who was an 'otherworlder'.
As for Yaya, the superficial reasons are similar to Jadeka.
In short, the three of them were very wise and did not disturb the white elf female knight who almost had the word "tangled" written on her face.
However, Ji Xiaoge, who is enthusiastic, cheerful and a bit familiar, will not ignore this 'new friend', so after discovering that Liadrin seems to be a bit out of tune with the current atmosphere, he immediately and familiarly He started looking for topics to chat with the latter, and the content was nothing more than about this fighting competition.
And Liadrin quickly calmed down, tried hard to put aside the chaotic thoughts in her mind, and regained her composure at an astonishing speed.
“As I said before, the draw time for the individual competition is at nine o’clock. We have plenty of time. We just need to get to the arena in the Central District within an hour. Uncle Venrad and Dean Marla should be early, so even if we arrive late, they can help draw lots instead.”
After showing Ji Xiaoge a slightly stiff but cordial smile, Liadrin put down the knife and fork in her hand and said seriously: "Because of the drawing of lots, there should only be one draw in today's individual competition. Round, starting around 9:30 At the beginning, after the match, it was time to draw lots for the team competition, but as we had agreed before, Mo would not play in the first few rounds of the team competition, so we only had to watch during the team competition.”
[Okay. Yes, I will definitely watch the battle from the judges’ table. 】
Said this from the bottom of his heart, Mo Tan nodded hard: "Yes, I understand."
"Let's talk about the individual competition."
No Inferior to the speed of a hungry dog (Ya Ya) After finishing his morning meal quickly, Jadeka wiped his mouth casually, clapped his hands and said, "What is little Gavin Ladd's plan? Oh, yes, it is to let Mo, our trump card, preserve his strength in the first few rounds. Right? ”
Liadrin nodded slightly and said softly: "That's right. In the words of Uncle Gavin Rad, he will keep an eye on every game in the Paladin Academy today, trying to find out the source of the opponent's confidence, and as a Momo, our secret weapon, just needs to win tepidly. If possible, try not to attract too much attention... Although it is difficult not to attract attention as a member of the Diesel delegation, but Kai and I Wen will try his best to confuse the audience.”
“Because of the competition system, after the initial draw, you can determine what opponent you will encounter in the future. I have to say, Gavin Ladd Jr. It’s a really good idea.”
Jadeka nodded in agreement and said cheerfully: “There should be no problem with his vision. That old boy Marla will definitely stare at it. With the two of them here, no matter how hard the Paladin Knight Academy tries to hide it, it will definitely not be able to hide a 'killing move' that is only at a high level at best. After that, we just need to slowly calculate how to target that opponent. ."
Ji Xiaoge, who had learned the whole story from everyone before, nodded excitedly: "It feels very funny! It's a bit like a hot-blooded comic!"
"Hot-blooded... Comics? ”
Liadrin tilted her head, not understanding.
"Ah, leave her alone, little pigeons often say strange things."
Jadeka waved his hand casually and glanced at the already out of luck pigeon. The tortoise-type dragon lying at the door basking in the sun said: "Then we won't be bold today. If possible, it's best not to show Mo Mo until he confronts the killer of the Holy Spear Academy." Liadrin He nodded and agreed: "Well, Mr. Mo's mount is so good. If you take him here, it will definitely attract people's attention."
Ji Xiaoge helped wolf down the meal. Afterwards, Yaya, who started to feel sleepy again, wiped her mouth, stood up, shook her white wings, and said energetically: "It's not too late, let's set off now!"
……
Half an hour later
Game time AM07:53
Academy City Central District, Arena
“This is where many academies conduct practical teaching It is a place that is frequently visited during exams and exams. On ordinary days, semi-official competitions are held every half month, and it is very popular among students. ”
At the entrance to Arena No. 19, Liadrin, who had crammed in a lot of Academy City knowledge before setting off, was introducing the irregular polygonal building in front of everyone in as brisk a tone as possible, but although everyone was Although she looked very interested, the only ones who really listened attentively were Ji Xiaoge and Yaya. Jadeka came here because she was young (really very young) and knew as much as Liadrin. , Mo Tan is because he has been here beforehand when he was the 'Black Brahma', and Fiyali's explanation is much more professional than Liadrin.
By the way, perhaps because the organizer also feels that the first round of the individual competition is not very valuable, the judging panel of 'Hei Fan' can choose not to come in the morning, but in the afternoon You must attend the team competition.
So although it is limited to today, at least for the next morning, as long as Mo Tan is not too unlucky to fall ill during his game, he can basically spend it safely.
In short, the group walked into the Academy City Arena, which although very grand, was still much smaller than Tianzhu Mountain’s No. 1 Outer Mountain Arena, and successfully met with them ten minutes later. Gavin Rad and Marla's group met up.
……
On the other side
“This is the arena, Mu.”
The dean of the Paladin Knights Academy, Hopkins Leon, was not interested in the person next to him who was not even taller than his shoulders. The white-haired girl wearing the second-year uniform of the Paladin Academy smiled slightly: "It won't be long before you stand at the top here and enjoy the attention of thousands of people."
"Oh, I am so happy... "
Mu Xuejian nodded perfunctorily and yawned slightly.
"Okay, I know you don't care about such a false reputation."
Hopkins shrugged and smiled: "But since you have accepted my commission, this time I really want to It doesn’t matter if you don’t become famous. How about it? Do you want to consider becoming a special recruit of our Paladin Knight Academy?”
Mu Xuejian nodded without hesitation and glanced at the sword hanging sideways behind his back? The long sword covered with bandages said listlessly: "I am a swordsman, not a knight. When I was a child, my mother took me to ride a horse in the grassland. To be honest, I felt terrible."
"Prairie." ?"
Hopkins raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "Casello Prairie?"
Mu Xuejian shook his head: "No, it's Inner Mongolia."
"Inner...what?"
"Nothing."
"Okay, anyway, I hope you will do your best. Go ahead, of course, you don’t go all out right from the start.”
Hopkins didn’t dwell too much, and just said calmly: “Just win normally and try not to reveal yourself. ”
Mu Xuejian nodded, with the same listless expression on his face: "Okay."
"Well, then go to the lounge with other students to recharge your batteries first, and wait for the draw. ..."
"I'm hungry."
"Huh?"
"I said I'm hungry."
"But didn't you just eat breakfast for three people?"
"Yes, but I didn't eat enough at night."
"I didn't eat enough at night?"
< br>"Well, before going online."
"This...I really don't understand you guys...oh...forget it..."
"Anyway, I'm hungry."
"I know, I'll get you something to eat. Stay here and don't wander around."
"Oh."

Game time AM09:08
"Number 22."
Mo Tan lowered his head and glanced at the ball in his hand, then turned to nod Jadeka, Yaya and Ji Xiaoge who were surrounding him, Gavin pulled De didn't come over because he wanted to avoid making him too conspicuous, but he received the news immediately.
……
At the same time
“What number?”
Hopkins asked Mu Xuejian, who was standing at the edge of the crowd in a daze after drawing the lots.
“Huh?”
The latter reacted for a while, and then he raised the ball in front of his hand and glanced casually...
"Twenty-one."
