Chapter 123 Freshman Tournament Begins
Chapter 123 Freshman Tournament Begins
After the two took their seats, they simply exchanged some information about this year's new students. As the loud orchestral music from the martial arts arena sounded, the two looked around.
It's unknown when the training ground was filled with people, and magic projections appeared in various places in the Imperial Academy. Many students who didn't get into the training ground surrounded the magic projections.
Magic projections also appeared on the large squares in various areas of Liro, the capital of the Sunset Empire. They were also surrounded by crowds of people, and almost half of the residents were paying attention to this freshman competition.
After all, the three winning new students will directly represent the Sunset Empire to participate in the international freshman competition. The strength of the freshmen directly determines the strength of the empire.
As a specially-appointed teacher, Karina sat at the edge. The other four people sitting in the referee's seat were the four vice-presidents of the Imperial Academy, one was a saint, one was a quasi-saint, and two were about to be promoted to quasi-saints.
Karina's strength ranked right in the middle among the four, so the four didn't say much about this newcomer who was on par with them.
The Imperial Academy of the Sunset Empire was not divided into four campuses, namely the east, south, west and north, like the Imperial Academy of the Ogar Empire, and each campus competed separately. Instead, it was a unified academy that competed together.
A female host walked slowly to the small platform facing the judges' seat in the martial arts arena amid the passionate orchestral music.
As she spoke, magical sound transmission rang out in the martial arts arena.
"The long-awaited 8376th Imperial College Freshman Competition is about to begin. We would like to invite Her Majesty the Queen and President of Imperial College, Queen Janet, to officially open the competition for us!"
As the host finished speaking, the sound of an audition was heard through the magic voice transmission.
"Ahem! Hello?"
"I am Queen Janet, and I declare the 8376th Sunset Empire Freshman Competition officially open!"
Janet was sitting on a chair in the palace garden with a crystal ball in front of her. She had just swallowed some black tea and used magic to telepathically speak the words above.
"Okay, thank you Queen Janet!" The female host made a clapping gesture, and then the entire martial arts arena erupted in thunderous applause.
Janet, who was looking at the scene through the crystal ball, laughed. Because she had just opened the crystal ball, she caught a glimpse of Liu Chi and Karina sitting together, and her brows couldn't help but frown.
These two people are hot potatoes. Although the countermeasures have been determined, Janet instinctively feels that things will not be as simple as she imagined.
Janet had thought about this a long time ago. If Liu Chi was really a waste who couldn't absorb magic as rumored, then he wouldn't have survived until now, let alone become the son-in-law of Saint Cassia's emperor. To Janet, Liu Chi gave her a very mysterious feeling.
The applause continued for a while and then stopped automatically. The female host began to read out the list of contestants, and the people whose names were called walked from the seats near the front of the audience to the performance field behind the host.
Looking at the familiar faces, Karina nodded. After the admission screening, the new students with strong abilities were divided into one class, where they received the best education in the Sunset Empire and went to fight for the country.
Soon, thirty-two freshmen stood on the training ground. Except for a few unfamiliar faces, Karina knew all the other freshmen.
Knowing that the competition was about to begin, Liu Chi became excited. This meant that he could learn some fighting skills again, although it was an academic style.
Since the lots had been drawn in advance, after everyone on the field dispersed, only two freshmen were left.
After a day of competition among thirty-two people, the top sixteen were born. After the draw ceremony, the top sixteen for the next day were quickly determined.
Before dinner, Karina and Liu Chi returned to the hotel. Judging from Liu Chi's expression, he didn't seem to have gained anything new that day. Instead, he decided not to watch the top 16 match tomorrow, but to watch "How to Make a Rich Woman Fall in Love with Me".
Karina noticed that Liu Chi was not as excited as he was in the arena, but she didn't understand why. It was obvious that the freshmen were stronger than those in the arena.
at the dinner table,
"I won't go over tomorrow. I'll stay here to accompany you all. I'll go over again after the semi-finals."
Hearing Liu Chi's words, Karina nodded without saying anything more, subconsciously thinking that Liu Chi was bored because he couldn't vote for the contestants in the freshman competition.
"Is it fun? I'm going tomorrow!" Catherine, who was standing by, learned that Liu Chi would not go tomorrow, and immediately acted coquettishly to her sister.
Karina rolled her eyes at Catherine and said, "Stay here tomorrow and don't go anywhere!"
Catherine frowned and glared at Karina. In her opinion, Karina was completely biased towards Liu Chi. Why could Liu Chi do it but she couldn't?
"Damn you, Karina! You deserve to die!" Katherine said, and soon she started laughing. "Then I will spend some time with my future husband. Karina, please don't be jealous!"
Catherine said this while winking at Karina. Naturally, Karina chose to ignore Catherine's provocation and continued to eat the food in her bowl.
Karina knew Liu Chi very well. He was a very principled man and would never give in to Catherine, so she was not worried about what might happen between the two of them.
Dinner ended with the girls chatting casually.
After dinner, Liu Chi went straight to the bathhouse. After taking a bath with other guests for a while, Liu Chi returned to the room dressed warmly.
Seeing that Liu Chi had suddenly disappeared and was taking a bath and preparing to go to bed, the girls hurried to the bathhouse to take a bath.
The room was particularly lively today. After Karina had something to do, five people lay neatly on the 2.5-meter bed. However, Liu Chi, one of them, had already entered the sea of spirituality when everyone went to take a shower.
In the huge library, there is a familiar position, two familiar people, and a familiar sitting posture.
Milia is holding "The Boss Falls in Love with Me 2: Goodbye".
Liu Chi continued to read the magical book "How to Make a Rich Woman Fall in Love with Me".
After taking a shower, everyone returned to the room and found Liu Chi sleeping like a death.
One night later, Karina went to the Imperial College early, while Liu Chi spent nearly a month in the spiritual sea and completely read the book "How to Make a Rich Woman Fall in Love with Me".
By the time Liu Chi woke up from his sleep, it was almost noon.
Everyone watched Liu Chi wake up and immediately got up from the bed.
"I'm so hungry!" said Catherine.
