Jianhua University, practical hall.
Seeing Sonia pointing her sword at Leonie, all the onlookers had only one thought in their minds:
what is she doing
The same goes for Felix, Celia, Ingrid, and others:
What is Sonia doing
Even Sonia herself fell into deep thought:
What am I doing
On the contrary, after Leonie was stunned for a moment, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and stomach. The laughter almost came out from between her teeth and lips. It can be seen that she was trying very hard to hold it back.
After a long while, she took a deep breath, with traces of wild laughter still remaining on her face, and asked as seriously as possible:
"Sonia, are you serious? You want to challenge me, Leonie Victor?"
Fake! I'm not serious! The viewer just controlled me!
Viewer, you are a shameless little megaphone controlling the girl’s body!
Sonia was almost roaring and cursing in her heart, but she couldn't say the reason, and she believed that the viewer would never appear again - at least not until she finished this practical training.
It was understandable that everyone had this reaction, because the person Sonia challenged was Leonie.
In Jianhua University, Leonie could be said to be the most famous student. Whether it was her talent, her award-winning experience, or her various scandals, they were all talked about with great relish.
She defeated all the new students in the sword department on her first day of school;
In the second year, he was promoted to Silver Wing and was accepted as an apprentice by another sword master of Jianhua University, 'Rhythm Sword Master' Nidala;
In the third grade, he joined the Abyss Adventure Team and formed a team with the geniuses of the University of Truth. He made many gains and encountered many adventures in the Abyss.
Even the University of Aletheia wants to poach her. Leonie is considered by many to be the seed of a sword master, ready for the sanctuary!
More importantly, Leonie had participated in the Abyss Adventure intensively half a year ago. Everyone knew that she wanted to break through the swordsmanship realm in battle and be promoted to the second wing!
This means that Leone has fully spread her silver wings and is now a fully functional one-winged magician!
In comparison, Sonia and Felix had only entered the Void Realm for a few days, and they hadn't even condensed a silver feather, let alone silver wings. The difference in magic power between them was even greater than the difference between a child and an adult.
Although magic power is just an energy resource and the specific battle depends on the magician's level, no one thinks that Sonia has any chance of winning, not even Sonia herself.
Leonie definitely has more magic spirits than her, and Leonie must have mastered the swordsmanship miracle, plus Leonie has rich experience in abyss combat.
The more she compared, the more desperate Sonia became—why did the viewer want to hurt her like this!
She might as well just beat Luo Lian!
Even if she loses to Luo Lian, others will only think that Luo Lian is bullying the weak. But it’s different if she loses to Leonie. Others will think that Sonia is arrogant and ungrateful!
Not to mention that Sonia just said such arrogant words.
If I lose badly, I won't be able to face Professor Trozan.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. It was the same thing last time. The viewer asked her to challenge Felix for no reason, which led to the trouble today. She didn't expect the viewer to repeat the same trick and asked her to provoke Leonie!
However, the viewer was not wrong.
Sonia really didn't feel unhappy now.
Because she only wanted to strangle the viewer to death in the virtual world tonight.
But Sonia couldn't take back the words she had said, so she could only grit her teeth and nod: "That's right."
"Okay, you are brave. As a senior in the swordsmanship department, I have no reason to refuse your challenge."
"But," Leonie said with a smile, "As a member of the Discipline Committee, I cannot allow such a huge disparity in strength to happen in the school, so..."
She walked to the side, picked up a wooden training sword from the weapon rack, and said, "Although I said I would try to hold back, anything can happen in a fight, so let's just set fair rules for victory and defeat—"
"If my sword touches your body even once during combat training, I lose."
"As long as your sword falls out of your hand, I win."
"Of course, if you can get my sword out of my hand, you win."
There were bursts of laughter all around—no one thought that Sonia could make Leonie's sword slip away, and Leonie's words seemed to be an impossible request.
Leonie looked at Luo Lian and Felix, "This rule also applies to you two. Luo Lian, you either make sure to defeat Felix without hurting him, or just give up... As a third-year student, you don't even have this much confidence, do you?"
"You can make the rules a little stricter," Luo Lian said coldly, "I don't mind."
Felix said calmly, "With such an easy victory condition, I have no reason to refuse it."
When Leonie looked at her, Sonia suddenly understood the connection.
Leonie didn't appear by chance. She and Luo Lian definitely had it planned in advance. Celia's incident was just a coincidence.
Leonie is the apprentice of the Rhythm Sword Master, and she and Felix are the apprentices of the Hidden Hand Sword Master... Is this a confrontation between the two Sword Masters of Jianhua University? Or does Leonie want to test their abilities
But no matter what, Sonia had no reason to retreat. And after Leonie proposed such a "generous" rule, she couldn't help but feel a little bit of fighting spirit in her heart... and the shame of being despised!
Sonia took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the wooden sword in her hand: "I have no objection, Leonie-senpai."
"Then I declare that the battle... begins!"
... ...
...
Blood Moon Kingdom, Broken Lake Prison.
Ash looked at the empty restaurant, eating braised Lala Fei while wondering if today was a holiday.
Why haven't I seen any other prisoners all morning
The Death Fight Club, the central hall, the reading room, the gymnasium, the audio-visual room... there was no one anywhere, except for a few prison guards who were playing with the light screen, as if everyone had agreed to stay in the dormitory all day.
But we still have to eat even if we don’t go out. It’s impossible for everyone to spend contribution points to have restaurants deliver food to their door, right
The feeling of uneasiness in his heart grew stronger and stronger. Ash felt like a farmer who saw animals and plants running away with their roots and nests. He knew that a great disaster was about to happen, but there was nothing he could do except sit and wait for death.
When he was halfway through his meal, Ash suddenly froze.
The light screen popped up automatically, and a cold red message was reflected in Ash's pupils:
"Dear Mr. Ash Seath, prisoner number 4001623. Broken Lake Prison officially notifies you that you have been placed under surveillance. Please keep calm and comply with the supervisor's instructions."
He suddenly stood up and walked to the door of the restaurant, standing straight without any deviation or trembling, like a sculpture.
After a while, seven prisoners came to the door of the restaurant one after another. Their movements were exactly the same and stiff, like puppets being controlled by someone, and they stood side by side with Ash.
There was a fist-sized space between each person, and they stood in a straight line like a military training team.
The elven swordsman Valkas Ur and the gourmet Langna's boyfriend are both among them!
Everyone's eyes were filled with complex expressions, showing fear, relief, despair, and relaxation, but no matter how Ash looked, he could only see one message:
help me!
A minute later, a tall and burly prison guard came to the door of the restaurant. He smiled at the prisoners, revealing his ferocious pale fangs.
"Hello everyone, I am your supervisor today, Nagu McMillan. Nice to meet you. Please introduce your names first, from left to right."
"Archibald Harvey."
"Varkas Ur."
"Ronut Wade."
"Ludo Enfield."
When it was Ash's turn, Ash found that he couldn't control his mouth at all, and opened his mouth like a machine: "Ash Hiss."
After the eight people reported their names, the prison guard Nagu nodded with satisfaction and said, "So today's schedule is to finish lunch first, and then I will take you to watch a movie in the afternoon and go to the sea viewing platform to breathe the sea breeze... Well, because of the recent proposal of the human rights organization, we will give you one hour of external contact time to allow you to contact your relatives and friends outside."
"There's not much else to say about the arrangements after dinner. If you have any suggestions or questions, you can raise them now."
Ash immediately raised his hand, and the prison guard Nagu looked at him and said, "Please speak."
The restraint of his mouth was released. Ash swallowed and asked the most important question: "I want to ask, after dinner... what are your plans?"
Although he had expected this, he still held out hope.
The prison guard Nagu smiled. He had seen many self-deceiving death row inmates like this, but he did not mind crushing the hopes of the death row inmates with his own hands.
Bringing despair is the regulator's responsibility and also his pleasure.
"Dear Ash, the plan after dinner is, of course, to take you to the live broadcast of the Blood Moon Judgment."
