"Takao Qiaofeng, even though you're still lacking a lot, you've managed to make it onto the national team with your hard work. However, is joining the national team your goal? Your goal is to stand out in the World College Tournament among the geniuses of powerful magic countries, and win back the glory that our country has lost. You have to focus, even if it's just a training match, do you understand?" said the instructor, Shou Watani.
"Yes, I understand, sir," Takao Qiaofeng nodded. He did not dare to think about anything else.
Shou Watani's training was extremely strict, as if he was never tired.
Outside the stadium, the crowd burst into a discussion when they saw the instructor.
"Isn't that Shou Watani, the captain of the Japanese team in the last World College Tournament?" said the man in the kimono and slippers after taking a sip of cold beer.
"It's really him, he's here as an instructor at the Training Hall."
"The Shuangshou Pavilion must have hired him to be the temporary instructor for the participants. He's even stronger than some of the old professors."
"Shou Watani must be holding a grudge because we didn't achieve a good result in the last World College Tournament. No wonder the participants of the Training Hall are so strong this year. They've defeated the teams that traveled to the World College Tournament so many times!"
The training mainly focused on the formation, the teamwork between the members, and the calmness they had to maintain when facing danger.
The sky gradually dimmed. Dusk arrived without the setting sun. It seemed like it had arrived earlier than the previous matches.
Ling Ling sat there impatiently. How long was Mo Fan going to sleep for!?
Ling Ling picked up her phone and called Mo Fan.
Coincidentally, his phone started ringing a few meters away. Mo Fan had a yawning expression on his face as he shook the phone in his hand. He didn't pick up the call.
"How did it go?" Mo Fan asked Ling Ling.
"I don't have any clear clues, but a lot of strange things have happened in the Shuangshou Pavilion," said Ling Ling.
They did not have a lot of information. Luckily, there were still a few days before the Moonless Night, so they could take their time to investigate.
Since they were dealing with the extremely cunning Red Devil Yiqiu, they should understand his purpose and aura early on and make preparations in advance.
Sharjah had said that Autumn the Red Devil was going to "ascend" here, so there must be something like an altar to store the enormous amount of evil energy. It was impossible for Autumn the Red Devil to come to the Shuangshou Pavilion and become an emperor!
Since it chose to transform and ascend in the Shuangshou Pavilion, it meant that there was something it needed in the Shuangshou Pavilion. Either the environment here could help it, or there was something it needed.
It would be best if he could find all of these. Otherwise, how could he stop the Red Devil Yiqiu? How could he make Mo Fan become a Forbidden Spell?
"It's okay, take your time … I say, Ling Ling, are you still a kid? How can you leave rice grains in your mouth?" Mofan noticed the rice grains near Ling Ling's cheeks.
Ling Ling did not care at all. Her hands were still on the computer.
Mofan reached out his hand and roughly scraped Ling Ling's cheeks, removing the rice grains.
"You're so annoying. I'm using makeup!" Ling Ling was quite annoyed by Mofan's rudeness.
"You're so young. Why are you using makeup? Your original skin color and luster are very good. You look more natural and cute," Mofan said grumpily.
"I've been quite fond of the black rebellious metal style recently. That nose ring, ear stud, explosive dreadlocks …" Ling Ling blinked.
"Err … Then it's okay. You're beautiful now."
…
On the training ground, Yong Shan ran to Gao Qiaofeng's side when the instructor was not paying attention. He looked like something bad was about to happen.
"Enemy intelligence, enemy intelligence. The love nest you just built has been invaded by a brighter male bird. What's the point of training? Don't lose your date and dinner!" Yong Shan said exaggeratedly.
Gao Qiaofeng turned around and happened to see what was going on.
Anyone with a functioning brain could easily tell that she was very close to the man who had appeared out of nowhere. Their actions, the distance between them, and the way they were talking, as if they were used to each other …
"Gao Qiaofeng, Wind Disc!"
Ishida Ike's voice appeared on the training ground.
Gao Qiaofeng was lost in his thoughts when the Wind Disc approached him. Luckily, he had a solid foundation. He immediately summoned a wall of light with his Light Element to block Yong Shan and him.
The Wind Disc dissipated. Instructor Shou Watani came over again. He glanced at Gao Qiaofeng, who had his head lowered. He then glanced at the corner of the stands where Ling Ling was.
Shou Watani had already noticed Gao Qiaofeng's gaze.
"The tournament is approaching, yet you're still thinking about it. You're really disappointing," Shou Watani said coldly.
Gao Qiaofeng realized the problem too.
However, he did not understand why his mind kept wandering to the Chinese girl even though he had only met her for half a day. He could not tell if it was her beauty or her mysterious identity as a Seven Star Hunter Hunter that had attracted his attention.
"Teacher, I know I was wrong. You …" Gao Qiaofeng apologized sincerely, but halfway through his sentence, Gao Qiaofeng realized that Shou Watani was walking towards Lingling.
Gao Qiaofeng was stunned!
Could it be that Shou Watani was going to blame the girl for distracting him?
Gao Qiaofeng quickly chased after the man, only to see Shou Watani picking up his pace. He soon arrived in front of Ling Ling.
"I recognize you," Shou Watani suddenly said.
Gao Qiaofeng hurried over. He was about to explain when he saw Shou Watani staring at the man beside the Chinese girl. The man looked lazy and undisciplined.
"Me?" Mo Fan pointed at his nose.
"You're Mo Fan," Shou Watani said confidently.
"So who are you?" Mo Fan looked at Shou Watani. He found the man familiar, yet he could not recognize him.
Shou Watani was infuriated.
How arrogant!
Shou Watani was the strongest Mage on the Japanese team. Even if this Mo Fan had come first in the World College Tournament and was known as the strongest young Mage, there was no reason for him to ask such a question.
Shou Watani took a deep breath and said, "We've never fought each other before, so you don't remember who I am."
Mo Fan tried his best to recall, yet he still could not recall who the man was.
At this moment, a familiar female figure walked over. Her body exuded a mature charm.
Mochizuki Chihaya went up to them and said with a gentle smile, "Mo Fan, this is Shou Watani, the captain of the Japanese team. You didn't participate in the first duel between the China team and our team in Venice. "
"Oh, I remember now, right, it's Shou Watani, we met at the Caribbean Sea, right?" Mo Fan exclaimed.
