The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

Jiang Liujing was a little surprised. Xavier was fine, but the other two had also given up, even though they were clearly not injured.

"They don't want this year's ranking? Does anyone else have any objections?"

Teacher Louisa glanced at where the deans were. The figure of Lu Jia, the dean of the Guang College, was very conspicuous, but he no longer had the high-spirited look of the past and sat there with a sullen face.

The other deans seemed to be talking to him, but Lu Jia ignored them and said nothing.

She said, "How can I not have any objections?"

"The dean, teachers, and other students took turns to come forward, saying all kinds of good and bad things, but it was useless. Those two students didn't care at all."

They didn't care whether they would be targeted by teachers and classmates, or what their image would be like in the eyes of others. Their indifferent attitude left everyone in Guangyuan helpless.

Xavier, the only one who could order the two of them around, was injured and unconscious. After waking up, he became distraught for some reason and did not agree to the dean's request. He only said that all three of them needed rest.

After that, he left school and refused all visits.

Jiang Liujing blinked and thought, it turns out that he can be so tough. He seemed to have learned something.

"But this is a good thing for our other courtyards." Louisa smiled on her pretty face, and did not hide her happiness about the current situation.

Not only her, but the teachers from other colleges also had the same smile on their faces.

"This year's final ranking may be completely different from previous years," she said.

After the individual competition began, Principal Lavie announced the rules. Each house's ten-member team would select one person to form a new team of seven. Within each team, the top two teams would be determined by the total score.

Jiang Liujing was drawn to the third group. He said goodbye to his classmates one by one before walking through the chaotic crowd and under the No. 3 guide flag.

When the other people who were drawn into the same group saw him walking towards them, their originally relaxed expressions instantly became quite collapsed.

No way? A 1 in 10 chance of them running into something like that?

When they saw Vita from the Fire Courtyard coming over, the few people's hearts were completely relieved.

Jiang Liujing had just walked under the flag, and before he could even stand, he heard a student next to him say weakly, "Wait, I'll surrender directly. Can you please not hit me?"

Jiang Liujing turned around in confusion: "?"

The student was quite self-aware, and he was fully aware that he could lose the competition but not his life.

Who doesn't know by now that the seemingly well-behaved and pretty little representative from the Water Academy is actually a living devil? Since they're going to lose anyway, admitting defeat early can save them a beating.

But this statement was obviously not recognized by another student, who snorted coldly and said, "Coward."

Jiang Liujing looked over and recognized him from his clothes as someone from Lei Yuan.

The man also noticed his gaze and turned his head to challenge him, "Even if you are Boss Wen's roommate, I will not show mercy."

Jiang Liujing said "Oh", then don't show mercy. He had never seen anyone show mercy on this journey.

He was calm, but Vita, who had just arrived, was not so calm. He stared at the Lei Academy student with a pair of eyes that were straight and sinister: "I am his opponent. You are not worthy."

Lei Academy student: "..."

Something is wrong.

But Vita has been ill for a long time, they have seen it in previous competitions.

He couldn't help but remind the red-haired man: "We have to take turns fighting. He and each of us have to fight. Each of us is his opponent."

Vita seemed to be deaf to his words, snorted coldly and walked away.

In his worldview, only recommended students are worthy of communicating with him on an equal footing. Other students can only be called talking monkeys, and those who are inferior to him are not even monkeys.

He stood beside Jiang Liujing, his golden eyes burning with excitement: "We really are destined to be together."

He and Jiang Liujing had agreed to compete against each other in the individual competition, but they were grouped together in the first round. Isn't this fate?

Jiang Liujing also felt a headache when he saw this, thinking that Vita's ghost was really lingering around.

They just had a fight once, so why did this guy get attached to him?

He turned his head and said, "It's quite unfortunate."

After the regrouping, the scene became lively. Many students who had a grudge against each other in the team competition met again in the individual competition, and sparks flew.

This was exactly the effect the principal wanted to see. He smiled and coughed, and the huge platform under his feet suddenly rumbled, and in front of everyone's surprised eyes, it broke neatly into ten equal-sized pieces.

Except for the one in the center under Ravier's feet, the other nine small platforms were moved outward, leaving a certain amount of space between each other, and finally formed the shape of a nine-petal flower.

Principal Lavie waved his hand, and ten flags in the crowd flew up from the ground as if summoned, and were inserted into the corresponding platforms one by one with a rustling sound.

After finishing all this, the old man's aged and powerful voice rang out: "In order to shorten the battle cycle, this year we will have ten groups competing simultaneously. Each group will be assigned a referee teacher. Unless there is a life-threatening situation, the teacher will not intervene in the battle between you."

"The rules of the match are to knock the opponent out of the field within ten minutes. If both parties are still on the field after ten minutes, the round is considered a draw."

"A win counts as two points, a draw counts as one point, and a loss counts as no points. After each person completes six matches, the top two players with the highest total scores will advance to the second round. In the event of a tie, the winner of the match between the two teams with the same score will advance first. If the previous match was a tie, an extra match will be played without time limit."

He glanced around and emphasized solemnly, "In the individual competition, you are allowed to summon contracted beasts, but you are not allowed to use auxiliary items such as scrolls. If you are found out, you will be disqualified. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" everyone answered in unison.

Most people had no objection to this rule, but Jiang Liujing still keenly heard some small complaints: "They really don't allow us to use it. We prepared so much for nothing."

"Didn't you know something happened a few years ago?"

"It's been several years. It was just an accident. Isn't the person still alive now?"

"Alive but also useless."

……

There was no useful information, so Jiang Liujing withdrew his attention.

It happened that the referee of their group came over and asked them who wanted to play first, and he raised his hand directly.

Vita also raised her hand but was a step slower and looked at him in surprise.

Unexpectedly, the most anxious person among the seven people in their group would be Jiang Liujing, who looked like a slow little snail.

The teacher obviously recognized this black-haired kid, the youngest prodigy of the new class, who had thrown the school into turmoil since his appearance. He smiled at him kindly and said, "Go ahead. You can choose your opponent or randomly arrange the order of battles."

Jiang Liujing didn't even look at Vita's suddenly bright eyes. He jumped onto the stage and said casually, "Random."
