…
In a luxurious western restaurant, Dongfang Lie slowly finished his dessert and wiped his mouth with a napkin. With a lazy smile on his face, he said to the person beside him, "Is that so? You lost the first round?"
"It seems like we've been too concerned about him. This kid that's been decided internally isn't that impressive," Zhou Shuming sat opposite Dongfang Ming with a disdainful grin.
"I'm not too concerned about him, but you, the woman you've set your eyes on is staying with him. God knows what's going to happen," said Dongfang Lie.
Zhou Shuming's face darkened. He glared at Dongfang Lie.
The two were quite concerned about whether Mo Fan was able to secure the nomination. If he did, it would mean that he was going to be a participant of the World College Tournament.
However, the good news was, according to the news, Mo Fan had lost in the first round …
Losing would not be recorded on the scoreboard, but if he did not win, it would be difficult for him to secure a high score.
Either way, they had overestimated the guy.
As Dongfang Lie had mentioned, if they were to fight, he would only need one or two rounds to defeat the guy!
"What about the next round? Who's he up against in the next round?" asked Dongfang Lie.
"Bai Yulang from the association, and the other three … they are just ordinary, but if they are able to make it into the top twenty, they shouldn't be too weak."
"Bai Yulang, he's a tough one."
…
…
The same night, at the same field …
The four members of the eleventh team, who had lost in the first round of the tournament, sat on the field with unpleasant expressions.
None of their opponents were as impressive as the others, yet they still lost in the end. Since they had lost the tournament, none of them would be able to secure a high score.
Gu Jian's face darkened. He initially thought his teammates were relatively strong, as they were ranked in the top twenty of their respective Elements. To his surprise, while they were fine in one-on-one duels, they were extremely slow when it came to teamwork. They were a burden to him.
He had the Great Lightning Element, and his destructive spells were enough to suppress his opponents. They would not have lost the tournament if they were able to contribute a little.
Gu Jian was already frustrated that he had to fight two more rounds against the same team.
"Mo Fan, what's wrong with you? Who are you trying to trap with the Forest of Kun? That guy has the Shadow Element, how are you going to trap him?" Gu Jian snapped at Ai Tutu.
Ai Tutu lowered her head, not daring to speak.
She indeed had a huge responsibility in this match. If the Forest of Kun had been able to imprison the opponent's Water Element student and prevent him from using Violent Waves, then everyone's formation would not have been broken.
In the end, Ai Tutu trapped a Shadow Element …
The Plant Type was practically useless against the Shadow Type, so he could easily dodge it with Fleeing Shadow.
"By the way, I didn't know that there was a girl named Mofan in our team." Liu Xin said with a strange expression.
"You're talking about that Mofan that's already been confirmed? Haha, I think that guy has nothing but good luck. It's a good thing that he's not in our team … But, this female Mofan … She's really not that great!" Li Jie's tone was no longer polite.
"Alright, alright. Don't make any more mistakes in the next match," Gu Jian said.
The others didn't say anything else.
Ai Tutu also firmly expressed that she would not make any mistakes in the next round.
…
Ai Tutu returned to her apartment in a bad mood. She kept mumbling to herself.
She admitted that she was not strong enough, and was still a distance away from the top twenty students of each Element. However, it was not entirely her fault that she had lost the match today.
"I'll make them look at me in a different light tomorrow!" Ai Tutu said.
"Look at who?" Mofan walked over from the balcony while munching on a piece of chicken steak.
He had just taken a small bite of the chicken steak when Little Flame Belle immediately flew out from the room after smelling the aroma. Mofan was about to take a bite, but he only bit the air. Little Flame Belle had already snatched the chicken steak away. She squatted in a corner and started munching on it happily, squeaking like a little mouse.
"No … nothing, you must have heard it wrong, HAHA!" Ai Tutu quickly blurted out, not daring to let Mofan know the truth.
"You're being weird. By the way, I heard that the Nomination Tournament has already started. Why isn't it my turn yet?"
Oh, oh, you're one of the last few, "Ai Tutu said.
Mofan looked at Ai Tutu. He had a feeling that the woman was hiding something from him. However, the woman was always acting weird. It was meaningless to pursue her further.
…
The next morning, Ai Tutu woke up early.
Due to the lack of time, the school had already started two matches in a row. As a result, there were two matches in the morning, with almost no time between them.
That being said, the opponents had to fight one match before the other, too. As such, the participants had to make their own arrangements. They had to decide if they were going to use their full strength in the first match, or reserve their strength for the second match.
Ai Tutu purposely asked her family to prepare a Deathstrike Magic Equipment for her. Luckily, she was able to show off her strength today …
Not long after Ai Tutu left the apartment, Mofan woke up too. Mofan happened to see Ai Tutu leaving with her shoes on. It was rare that she was not wearing high heels.
"She's obviously going to fight …" Mofan rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
After hesitating for a moment, Mofan decided to follow her. He had a feeling that something was not right with the woman lately.
He had accidentally lost track of Ai Tutu when he went out with her. The school was huge. Mofan had no idea where to look for her.
Most importantly, he had been studying at Pearl Institute for almost two years, yet he suddenly realized that he had lost his way. He had walked around aimlessly, yet he still had no idea where to go.
Withered trees, paths, classrooms, research labs, training grounds … where the hell was this place?
"Ah, this is the library. I finally found a landmark." Mofan passed through a man-made forest and finally returned to the familiar path.
When Mo Fan arrived at the entrance of the library, he happened to see a woman with black hair decorated with little crystals floating out like a pure white cloud. She was holding a few books in her arms. Her steps were light, and her figure was graceful …
"Mofan?" the woman asked curiously when she saw him.
"Ding Yumian, you're always in the library …" Mofan smiled awkwardly.
"Don't you have a duel today?" Ding Yumian blinked her eyes and said.
"Do I? In the afternoon or at night?" Mofan raised his brows and asked.
Ding Yumian shook her head. She glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "It's now. Oh, it's already been ten minutes."
"…" Mofan smacked his lips. He had no idea what to say.
Ai Tutu!
