The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

Francis meant well when he spoke, but the person he comforted turned green in the face.

Individual competition? Individual competition?

After being beaten like this, Xavier can't move unless he rests for several days?

Not to mention Xavier, the other students in the School of Light are not much better off. After being frozen for such a long time, ordinary people would have been in semi-shock. Only the magicians have better physical fitness and are still alive after being rescued by the teacher.

After this game, Guangyuan suffered heavy losses, and the culprit was obviously Jiang Liujing.

But before he could say anything else, Principal Laviere, who had his eyes closed, opened them and interrupted their quarrel: "Alright, you're all half-dead, and you're still arguing over some childish thing. How can you be so disrespectful?"

He glanced at the dean of Guangyuan with a hint of meaning. "Winning and losing in competitions is normal. As long as the rules aren't violated, everything is fair. Lu Jia, you're going too far in defending your own students. This isn't like you."

There have been many cases of serious injuries in previous years, and some people have even died on the spot. Otherwise, there would not be the current rules restricting killing.

But at that time, he did not see the dean of Guangyuan accusing the other party of being cruel.

So why this time?

Lavie's old eyes swept over calmly, yet with sharp force, as if he wanted to cut open the person's skin and see from the inside out.

The eyes of Lu Jia, the dean of Guangyuan, trembled slightly.

He shifted his gaze slightly, avoiding eye contact with Laviere, and lowered his head.

"Sorry, I lost my temper."

Laviere stared at him quietly for a long time. When Lu Jia felt the air around him became sticky and heavy, he finally withdrew his gaze and turned back into the image of the leisurely and elegant old man.

He adjusted his hat and sighed, "I'm old, and I might die any day. Ultimately, this world belongs to you, and even more so to these young people. I hope that, at least in this Imperial Magic Academy, everyone can focus on becoming stronger and practicing, and not always think about those twists and turns."

The dean of the Seventh Hospital lowered his head somewhat ashamedly at his words and murmured "yes".

Laviere closed his eyes and said, "I'm tired. Let's all go."

After walking out of the arena, Jiang Liujing saw Chi standing in the same place, seemingly not moving at all since he saw him off.

He paused, realizing belatedly that his bad mood had leaked out. Others might not have noticed, but Chi should have been able to sense it.

Not wanting to make Chi worry, he put away the cold expression on his face, and the tall young man strode over.

"Chi--" Jiang Liujing maintained a normal expression and spoke to him with a smile. Before he could finish his words, he was dragged out of the crowd amid exclamations and fell into a familiar embrace.

He blinked confusedly, a hot breath hit him in the face, and his whole face was forced to bury in the boy's chest.

Jiang Liujing was small to begin with, and when Chi held him up like this, other people couldn't see him from the side, just like the tightly pressed red bean paste filling inside a rice dumpling.

"I'm not hurt," he whispered. There was no need for Chi to punish him so harshly, right? He was almost out of breath.

Chi's brows were furrowed tightly, showing no sign of relaxing. He glanced at the crowd that still clung to the area around him. He didn't speak publicly, but instead spoke through his heart, "Go back to the dorms first. I'll check."

Jiang Liujing was stunned. Check?

Wasn't he just fighting normally? Why did Chi look like he was facing a powerful enemy?

But Chi was not the type to joke. Jiang Liujing did not choose to question Chi's decision at this moment. He nodded his head slightly to indicate his agreement.

Chi relaxed his grip, and the child was able to gain some free space to move around.

He didn't try to break free, but let Chi's arms wrap around him loosely. In this position, he said to his classmates, "I'm a little tired. I'll go back soon."

How could the students dare to say no? They all responded like sheep and said goodbye to him obediently.

After Jiang Liujing came out of the illusion, he looked like he would kill anyone who dared to provoke him. The clean and decisive shot he fired into the body of Xavier, the representative of Guangyuan, scared everyone present.

Even though they were all from the Water Academy, their whole bodies tensed up when the blood splattered out, and they felt the same pain in their chests.

Most of the people present had only been practicing magic for more than ten years, and the most violent fights they had seen had happened in the past few days.

Jiang Liujing was especially delicate and cute. The impact of a doll-like pretty boy striking without blinking was completely different from that of a burly, rough man.

If they used to have a strong sense of respect for Jiang Liujing, now they were more afraid of him. They looked at the little boy as if he were their ancestor whom they could not afford to offend.

Jiang Liujing didn't know that his appearance had changed dramatically in the eyes of the public. After saying goodbye politely, he followed Chi out.

Before they reached the door, a figure suddenly appeared and stopped them.

"Wait a moment, you two."

A low, hoarse voice came from the man who blocked his way. Jiang Liujing looked at the gray robe that covered his face and figure, and a hint of vigilance appeared on his face.

This person stood in front of them, but he didn't have any aura at such a close distance. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.

And the robe he was wearing, which was gray and looked inconspicuous, actually perfectly concealed any feature on his body that might reveal his identity.

Hair, appearance, body shape, if the voice is not real, then even the gender cannot be determined.

An ordinary robe could never achieve this level of performance. This is at least an alchemical tool.

Why did this mysterious guy stop them at this time?

Jiang Liujing frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

The man glanced at Chi who was standing beside him, but Chi simply ignored his gaze and stood there motionless.

Jiang Liujing said, "He is someone I trust. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. If you don't want to say it, we will leave first."

After saying this, he walked forward without any hesitation.

The man in gray robe was stunned by his actions.

Normally, he should have given the child some time to react after saying this, right? But this kid just didn't follow common sense at all?

But considering his performance on the court, it seems that he does have this unreasonable qualification and confidence.

He took a step and appeared in front of the two of them again the next second. His nonchalant attitude also represented the powerful strength behind it.

Jiang Liujing was forced to stop again, sensing a hint of strength from this person. It wasn't out of show, but more like a way to gain their attention.

This time, the other party didn't drag his feet and directly stated his purpose: "A gentleman wants to see you."

"Aren't you from the school?"

The gray-robed man nodded.

Jiang Liujing understood. He raised his head and looked around quickly. Perhaps because he was so impressed, there were more than a dozen identical boxes in the air, but he immediately saw the one he felt someone was watching at first.

He turned back to the gray-robed man and said firmly, "Is it the people in this box who want to see me?"

In fact, there were people in other boxes paying attention to him, but the direction of this box gave him the strongest feeling.

The gray-robed man seemed to chuckle lightly: "Your intuition is very accurate."

He half turned sideways and said, "Come with me. It won't take up too much of your time. That person just wants to see you."
