The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

As soon as the freshmen from the Water College came off the court, they were surrounded by excited seniors. Their match ended just in time for lunch. The seniors enthusiastically offered to treat them to a meal, since after all, everyone who had bet had doubled their money.

Jiang Liujing shook his head as usual and declined their invitation.

A senior student asked curiously, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Before Jiang Liujing could speak, his classmates answered, "No, he's going to have dinner with one of his good friends."

"Brothers?"

"Yeah." The classmates said with regret. They had been tirelessly inviting Jiang Liujing to dinner for a week, but Jiang Liujing's daily routine was unshakable. As soon as the get out of class was over, he would resolutely go to find his good brother.

"Is it someone from other colleges?" The senior students thought of the green-haired guy who waved at Jiang Liujing after the competition of the Wood College, and speculated.

Jiang Liujing shook his head and said "no".

The next second, a calm and smiling voice sounded in my mind: "Is it over? I'll wait for you outside."

Jiang Liujing's eyes suddenly lit up: "You're here?"

He hurriedly said goodbye to the others and walked quickly towards the exit.

As he walked, he wondered in his heart, "Why are you letting people go so early today?"

Although the Magic Warrior Academy does not hold a freshman competition, the process of assigning student numbers is equally troublesome. It has been a week since the start of school, and their student numbers have not yet been finalized.

Chi said, "The fight is over."

"Have you decided on your student number?"

Chi denied, "Not yet. But I'm done."

He had already beaten up every single one of the first-year students at the Magic Warrior Academy this week. Compared to their anger and admiration for him on the first day, their attitude had changed again—they ran away at the sight of him.

The reason is very simple. Anyone who fights with him will have at least one weapon broken.

Their bare hands showed no mercy, and with one blow from their heavy battle axe, any weapon among the eighteen was either shattered or broken. The difficulty in determining their subsequent student numbers was also related to the massive destruction of their new weapons, and everyone was rushing to repair their weapons.

Jiang Liujing was not aware of these details, and he just felt that Chi Zhen was amazing.

"Are you sure you're number one now?"

Chi said "hmm".

The rules they decided on for the student numbers were similar to a ring match. As the champion, he had already beaten everyone. No matter how others were ranked later, his first place would not change.

Because the morning match had just ended, the crowd leaving the venue was very dense, with someone standing every two steps. However, Chi's figure and temperament were too conspicuous. As soon as Jiang Liujing came out, he found his figure on the roadside.

The red-haired, aloof boy was standing under a big tree. There were a lot of people around him, talking and arguing with each other, making the place very lively.

He seemed to have suddenly created a quiet world in the noisy city that no one dared to approach. People passing by him couldn't help but look up at this strange red-haired boy, but were frightened by his cold aura and unconsciously avoided him.

Chi didn't wear the academy uniform, not because the Magic Warrior Academy didn't make one for them, but because even if they did, these rebellious students wouldn't wear it.

According to them, "These tattered clothes are very restrictive when fighting and not convenient at all. We can just wear them during gatherings."

The other freshmen didn't wear it, and Chi was obviously not an obedient person, so of course he didn't wear it either.

The result of not wearing any clothes was that he was standing under the tree, and the people passing by were all neatly dressed students who obviously belonged to a magician branch, making him look particularly strange and outstanding.

He didn't care about the gazes directed at him. Only when he sensed Miaomiao's breath getting closer did the aura around him gradually turn from cold to gentle.

He followed the scent and turned his gaze over, and saw Jiang Liujing walking quickly towards him through the crowd.

The wind blew through the trees, and the pale white petals were blown down like snow, instantly covering the shoulders of the two people.

"To the cafeteria?"

Chi shook his head and smiled faintly. Like magic, a bag of lunch boxes appeared out of thin air in his hand: "There are too many people and it's noisy. I went to the cafeteria in advance to pack some food. We will eat in the dormitory."

Jiang Liujing could smell several of his favorite dishes just by the smell. His eyes suddenly lit up and his heart felt warm.

Although Chi was a man of few words, he was a man of action. Unlike his aggressive approach to combat, in real life, Chi was the more attentive of the two. In just three months, he had already figured out Miaomiao's preferences.

This may also be the reason why Grandpa and the others dared to let Chi accompany Miaomiao out alone, and even didn't bring Dahei with them.

Thinking of the forest, he couldn't help but sigh: "The Dawn Empire is too far away. I can't get any news from Grandpa and the others at school. And Ajin, I don't know if he has finished the breakthrough."

During the three months of their training, Ajin had been trapped in the light cocoon without waking up. Logically, the silver marigold had shortened the period of stability of his magic power, and he should have woken up long ago, but the big tiger had not been able to come out.

Xing Yue said that this was probably an accidental triggering of its ancestral bloodline, causing a new mutation.

"A successful mutation can make it stronger, but if it fails, it will die." The old man said in a casual tone.

Bloodline regression is not a rare thing for fantasy beasts. It may occur when they advance. It is an opportunity to purify bloodline and strength, but it also comes with huge risks.

Accepting the challenge was Ajin's own choice, and Jiang Liujing and the others couldn't interfere. Even after they left Ernst, Ajin showed no signs of waking up. His golden cocoon of light grew larger and deeper each day, and the occasional magical shockwaves quickly subsided.

Chi didn't know much about Ajin, but he knew that he was a guy who coveted Miaomiao's contracted beast status. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't answer. Instead, he started walking towards the dormitory and asked, "Did the competition go well this morning?"

He could hear the sounds through the contract, but he couldn't see the images. He could only feel that Miaomiao was very calm throughout the whole process.

"Fortunately, I was drawn to Tuyuan. Mo Ya is much stronger than I thought." Jiang Liujing said.

Jiang Liujing was somewhat shocked by Mo Ya's performance today, mainly because Mo Ya had always acted pitiful and useless in the dormitory, but he turned out to be so fierce in a fight, and was merciless when using the ground spike formation.

"We've learned some of the tactics used by the Tuyuan team from the crystal ball footage from previous years. They're slow and don't like running, but they're very good at changing the terrain, creating various obstacles to restrict the opponent's movement. One year, they completely trapped their opponent in a clay cage."

"To prevent being trapped and killed suddenly, we adopted a formation that dispersed everyone. If they wanted to attack everyone, their strength would inevitably be dispersed, and I would have enough time to support them. If they wanted to focus on a single person, the others could take the opportunity to attack their main body, forcing them to retreat and defend."

The Earth Academy finally chose the former. They were determined to quickly defeat the Water Academy, but they did not expect the unexpected appearance of Jiang Liujing.

After hearing this, Chi said, "After this fight, your opponent will probably target you in the next one."

Jiang Liujing responded softly. He naturally knew what Chi could think of.

The battle on the field was too brief for Mo Ya and the others to react, but the court would surely realize later that he was the core of the formation. Since the formation was so difficult, they simply couldn't let him complete it.

When I returned to the dormitory, I was very surprised to find that Chu Zhou and Wen Xun had also returned, but Mo Ya was not there. I didn't know if he hadn't arrived yet or had left with his classmates.

The two people in the dormitory had one won and one lost in the game in the morning, but now their faces looked bad at the same time. When they saw Chi and Jiang Liujing coming in, they just greeted them and got up to go upstairs.

Jiang Liujing glanced at their backs and asked Chidao quietly, "Are they having a fight?"

Their expressions were so fierce, as if someone owed them thousands of gold coins, but they didn’t meet Fengyuan and Leiyuan this morning?

Chi didn't care. After they left, he and Miaomiao could still eat quietly. He quickly took out the food and set it on the table, saying casually, "Don't worry about it. Doesn't he claim to be very mature? I guess he doesn't need anyone to help mediate."

Jiang Liujing: "..."

He didn't need to think to know what grudge Chi was holding.

Wen Xun found fault with something they had done at breakfast a week ago, and Chi actually still remembered it.

He couldn't help but grumble, "You two are quite childish."
