Firefly Journey

Chapter 175 Youth is a hastily written poem (18)

Lu Jianming put his hands behind his head and strolled leisurely back to the waiting area. Seeing his classmates, he asked, "Did I do alright?"

Nobody responds to my messages normally.

"Alright," Lü Jianming said to himself, "Where's the teacher?"

He looked around and found that Cassius was nowhere to be seen.

Sabrina said, "I had to leave early because of an urgent matter."

“Alright…” Lu Jianming wasn’t surprised. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go!”

Sabrina chuckled and asked, "Where am I going?"

"Of course, it's time to go on stage..."

No! Before he could finish speaking, Lü Jianming saw Ario rubbing his hands together, looking eager to try.

Could it be that……

“I don’t need to do anything today, I can just keep an eye on things.” Sabrina was very satisfied with his reaction and said with a smile.

"Alio, the teacher really let you go!" Lu Jianming said incredulously.

Lin Yuanran said helplessly, "That's right... I'm wondering about it too."

Given the precedent of having Paninger lead the charge, no one was so surprised. Perhaps the teacher also wanted to use this battle to unleash Ario's potential and achieve some remarkable breakthrough.

Lin Yuanran took a deep breath: "I'm going."

"Keep it up!" Paninger, Five, and others encouraged him.

Lin Yuanran felt much more at ease, and his legs, which felt as heavy as lead, finally started to move, though very slowly, as he was still mentally preparing himself.

Just as he was about to pass through the invisible wall and enter the arena, he suddenly looked back for no apparent reason.

He didn't know why he turned around, but it turned out that there really was someone watching him.

It wasn't the audience, nor the students of Class 29, nor even the old guys secretly spying from the rooftop in the distance, but a girl with a bright smile and a spoiled demeanor.

The wind chime winked at him.

Lin Yuanran suddenly wanted to laugh, but he was a little embarrassed and couldn't manage to.

He quickly turned around and plunged into the invisible wall.

While watching the battle, Lin Yuanran gained a preliminary understanding of the werewolf boy Quinnir's tactics and also formulated a plan in his mind.

Since Quinnil is skilled in close combat, then we should stay away from him. After Lü Jianming's round of attrition, Lin Yuanran didn't believe that Quinnil would remain so energetic indefinitely.

His only concern now is how to prevent being approached.

Lu Jianming's twenty-seven lightsabers failed to stop him. What made him so special?

Thinking of this, Lin Yuanran's face turned grave.

When Quinnil saw someone come in, he reminded them to be careful again, and then he became quite impolite.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yuanran turned and ran. He knew very well that with his weak human body, trying to fight against a werewolf whose bloodline had awakened was like throwing an egg against a rock.

He rationally chose to run away, but his actions were seen as cowardly by others.

Watching Ario flee from the sidelines, Lü Jianming said earnestly, "If I had known, I would have held on for a few more minutes... at least I could have helped him deplete some of his magic power."

Lu Jianming was still holding back a little, but he felt that he had no chance of winning if he continued to fight, so he chose to withdraw voluntarily.

In all honesty, he did this thinking that Sabrina would follow, but who would have thought it would be Ario?

The teacher is such a jerk...

The audience watching from the sidelines was stunned by Lin Yuanran's act of feigning weakness. "You're so embarrassing! What happened to Class 29 being full of geniuses? Why are you so pathetic?"

Wait, a new face? I've never seen one before.

Lin Yuanran only entered St. Louis this year, so it's normal that some senior students don't recognize him. Seeing him fleeing in such a sorry state, they couldn't help but scoff.

"I suspect he is a wind mage."

"why?"

"Because they run fast."

"Hahahaha!"

A few upperclassmen who couldn't even get close to Class 29 were mocking those inside, which was rather ugly, as if doing so could make up for their own inadequacy.

Snapped.

Something flew in from somewhere, first hitting the head of the person who was laughing the loudest, and then landing on the ground.

The old man followed the trail and found it was a fruit pit.

"Who is it?! How can someone be so inconsiderate?"

Feng Ling isn't smiling now. She looks beautiful even when she's not smiling, but she's also terrifying.

Upon seeing Fengling's face, the senior students wisely shut their mouths and quickly left to watch the game in a place further away from Class 29's waiting area.

They dared not linger for even a moment.

Even if Fengling, Sabrina, and others, mindful of their status, do not take action in public, they might at most give them a few words of reprimand.

But there's also the smiling Crown Prince of Chu behind him. He's never been afraid of causing trouble, and it's not impossible for him to beat someone up in public. It's best to leave early.

On the field, the cat-and-mouse game continues.

Even with all his efforts to run away, Lin Yuanran gradually realized that he was running out of strength.

In contrast, Quinnil seemed tireless, relentlessly pursuing his goal.

Lin Yuanran must make a decision now; if he continues this war of attrition, he will destroy himself.

Actually, his thinking wasn't wrong, but he misjudged the problem. He underestimated the stamina of the werewolf bloodline, which led to him being exhausted while Quinnir was still full of energy.

We have to think of a way...

Lin Yuanran gritted his teeth, and two strings of flames immediately shot out from his hands, looking like two ripe apples from a distance.

Bang!

Two balls of fire suddenly exploded and spread across Lin Yuanran's entire body, enveloping him completely in no time.

At the same time, his pace slowed down, and the temperature around him gradually rose.

"What is he doing?" Sabrina frowned.

Fengling sighed, "You should prepare to carry him."

"You mean..."

"He finally realized that even if he dragged it out, he couldn't defeat the werewolf, so he decided to burn himself."

Sabrina said, "You understand him best."

Fengling said, "He's so obsessed with saving face that he's willing to suffer for it. I even suspect there's something wrong with the soundproofing in this venue. He only decided to do this because he heard those sarcastic remarks."

Sabrina smiled. "Perhaps this is exactly the result the teacher wanted to see?"

“That makes sense… but you should still prepare stretchers.”

Everyone was amused by this remark.

The layer of flames on the surface was actually a defense that Lin Yuanran had put up to protect himself.

The real killing move was the constantly boiling air around them, and... a "Great Flame Dragon" that Quinnir couldn't see, enveloped in flames.

Lin Yuanran was somewhat frustrated. If he had been given more time to prepare some divine pronouncements in the "Fantasy Ledger," the current situation wouldn't have been a problem at all, and he would have won much more easily.

Quinnil was an honest man. He chased after Lin Yuanran all the way without thinking about whether Lin Yuanran's sudden slowdown was a trap. He rushed over without thinking.

Quinnil's hunter instincts made him feel uneasy, and the closer he got to Lin Yuanran, the hotter he felt.

Lin Yuanran suddenly turned around, and the area within three meters in front of him had become a furnace.

Oracle. Boiling Furnace!

Oracle: Great Flame Dragon!

Lin Yuanran unleashed his two most powerful moves, and under the double attack of fire magic, Quinnir's body was engulfed in flames.

In terms of cultivation level, even as a newly awakened second-level cultivator, Lin Yuanran was stronger than Kunnier. This double divine oracle directly and severely injured him.

Lin Yuanran was in no better shape. Amidst a deafening roar, the flames dissipated, the temperature returned to normal, and both of them lay motionless on the ground.

Seeing this, the referee did not hesitate to "throw" the two of them out at the same time.

Lin Yuanran struggled to his feet and, seeing Hauglis and Fway carrying the stretcher, fell into deep thought…

"What are you..."

"Wind Chimes, let us carry you," Fway said.

Lin Yuanran said speechlessly, "She's a habitual liar."

"Okay, we made a mountain out of a molehill."

"Where is she?"

“She was just here… Look!” Fway pointed towards the ring, “She’s already gone in!”
