Chapter 135: A Promise Is a Promise (1)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
In the Transmission Formation, contestants having entered the finals appeared now and then.
Beside it were waves of students who were watching for fun. Later the Transmission Formation was lit up again.
“Look! Someone is out! Someone is out!” some trainees gloated.
“Who would be the ninth one having been knocked out? Since it’s so early, I suppose that might be a level three star magician who has entered the Finals relying on his good luck.”
Hearing those trainees’ gossiping, Wu Shangyong felt his face slightly reddened.
“Look! It’s Wu Shangyong!”
Wu Shangyong stood on the Transmission Formation awkwardly. It was indeed quite embarra.s.sing getting transmitted out only on the second day. How he wished that he would have walked away after getting Zheng Xuan’s ident.i.ty card.
“It’s Wu Shangyong! Never expected you’d come out so early!” The female teacher who was responsible for the compet.i.tion matters walked over. She gave him a strange look and then started to check his trophies.
“Hmm? Zheng Xuan’s ident.i.ty card? Did you defeat Zheng Xuan?” The female teacher suddenly stopped and looked at Wu Shangyong, with an exclamation mark on her face.
Wu Shangyong’s face was burning hot, he said embarra.s.sedly, “No, actually it is Zheng Xuan who forced me out.”
“Hmm? If it was him, then how did you get his ident.i.ty card?” asked the female teacher while looking at Wu Shangyong questioningly, so were those students around.
Wu Shangyong said awkwardly, “I met him on the way. He asked me to get out of his way. And I said I would go only if you gave me your ident.i.ty card. And then he gave it to me. End of story.”
The crowd, “…”
The female teacher looked at Wu Shangyong, “If so, how did Zheng Xuan force you out?”
Wu Shangyong’s face reddened, so did his neck. He hung down his head, feeling too ashamed to show his face.
“Is it possible that you didn’t get out his way after he gave you his card so you guys had a fight?” asked the female teacher.
Wu Shangyong lowered his head, wis.h.i.+ng he could dig a pit and bury himself in it now.
Noticing Wu Shangyong’s embarra.s.sing expression, the female teacher shook her head and said earnestly, “Shangyong, a promise is a promise!”
Wu Shangyong smiled awkwardly, “Teacher, you said right.”
On the other hand, Zheng Xuan was walking in the jungle testily. No clue now. He had no idea how to find Mo Yi at all now.
Suddenly Zheng Xuan saw someone! That person had bloodstain on his left shoulder. Zheng Xuan got mad with joy and quickly trotted to that person.
“Seven!” Zheng Xuan called with an exciting voice.
When he drew near, he found that person’s height and body shape didn’t match at all, plus with a lower level. His Seven was at level four while this guy was level three at most.
“Childe Zheng!” Lin Xu called him reverently.
“Where did you get those clothes?” asked Zheng Xuan with disdain.
“Someone knocked me out. And when I woke up, I was wearing those.” confessed Lin Xu, since he dared not lie before Zheng Xuan.
The veins on Zheng Xuan’s forehead popped out. On thinking that Seven was wearing other’s clothes, Zheng Xuan had the spur to kill someone!
Noticing the murderous look in Zheng Xuan’s eyes, Lin Xu showed the white feather.
“Are you even a man? You can’t even protect your clothes!” Zheng Xuan gritted his teeth.
Lin Xu stood there stiffly and didn’t know what to say.
After thinking a bit, Zheng Xuan said, “Take off your clothes. I want them.”
The way Lin Xu looked at Zheng Xuan was kind of quirky. Zheng Xuan also found that his request was a bit too much but he still didn’t change his idea.
However reluctant Lin Xu was in his heart, he still had no guts to go against Zheng Xuan but could only change his clothes with him.
Mo Yi now was sitting by the lake and roasting some fish, absent-minded. The fire was sizzling, which made Mo Yi kind of impetuously grumpy.
“Mo Yi, you are here!” On seeing Mo Yi, Nangong Qianxue got delighted.
Mo Yi picked his eyebrows and gave Nangong Qianxue a look, smiling gently, “Senior sister Nangong, it’s you!”
Nangong Qianxue walked over toward Mo Yi while saying with a propitiatory tone, “Yiyi, can you spare me a fish? I am starving. I have roasted some myself but tasted too awful, and I nearly threw up!”
Mo Yi nodded, saying with a smile, “Eat as much as you want.”
“I met Zheng Xuan just now.” said Nangong Qianxue while gulping the fish.
Mo Yi rolled his eyes and said with a flat tone, “Really?”
“That guy was acting weird. He held me and asked if saw someone wearing Grimace Flower mask on his face who got injured on the left shoulder. And I said no and he even gave me att.i.tude. That guy has been acting weirder and weirder recently.” said Nangong Qianxue crossly.
Mo Yi smiled, “Just leave him alone. Why bother?”
“I also wanted to ignore him. But that guy is too crude who doesn’t even know to be gentle to girls.” said Nangong Qianxue detestably.
Mo Yi showed a slice of grin at the corner of his mouth, “Except Xu Zihan, he is always wearing that face to anyone else.”
“That guy seems to have been looking for something or what, looking rather anxious. Oh right, I also met Lin Xu on the way here. He said Zheng Xuan forced him to change his clothes with him. Alas, what a pervert!” Nangong Qianxue shook her head helplessly.
Mo Yi lowered his head, looking quite complicated on the face.
“Yiyi, your fish got burnt.” said Nangong Qianxue.
Mo Yi looked at his fish in the bonfire, his eyes suddenly shrunk, “Never mind.”
“Prince Yu has been more and more powerful. Yesterday I encountered a level five star beast and nearly got forced to activate my transmission rune to flee, and Prince Yu happened to pa.s.s by, and with one move he got that star beast killed.” exclaimed Nangong Qianxue.
Mo Yi nodded approvingly, “Yeah, he is indeed impressive.”
