Chapter 538: Inter-academy Tournament (28)

After the semi-final round ended, those qualified for the finals had a day off so that they could recover their strength to prepare for the battle.

However, another critical news spread during the semi-finals.

They had seven contestants for the final round, and one of them was a warlock, a profession that disappeared from the Brilliance Continent for ages!

That news was like a nuclear bomb. All the conversations were about the warlocks who had advanced to the final round. The people in the Brilliance Continent had despised the warlocks since a long time ago. None of those in that profession had appeared before the ma.s.ses since then.

No one had expected a warlock to appear in the inter-academy tournament. Troublemakers started to ask about the warlock and their academy as well. They wanted to know who would dare to sign a warlock for the compet.i.tion.

Ultimately, they found out that the warlock was from the Saint Laurent Academy, but no one knew their ident.i.ty. The academy had maintained a silent stance in that issue, so not a single piece of news had been leaked out to the spectators.

The mysterious and dangerous warlock had become the most popular topic of the day at Blizzard City.

The students and teachers from different divisions in the Saint Laurent Academy felt wronged. They did not deliberately conceal any information as they did not even know anything about the warlock. Ouyang Huanyu made the arrangement, so none of them had any idea about it.

However, who would know of their sufferings?

Ouyang Huanyu also felt that everyone had falsely accused him. He was not tight-lipped; he did not know where the little warlock had come from, and he had not even met the fellow.

He was kept so out of the loop that he did not know if Yun Qi would bring his mysterious student to the final round in the tournament.

While Ouyang Huanyu was nervous about that, Yun Qi found him and informed him that his student would represent the Saint Laurent Academy’s Warlock Division in the final round. However, he did not explain anything else.

Ouyang Huanyu finally relaxed and secretly complained about Yun Qi’s methods. It was already the last day before the final round, and yet that old man still concealed his student’s ident.i.ty.

Even so, it would be impossible to further hide his student’s ident.i.ty in the final round.

Ouyang Huanyu knew that Yun Qi had been distressed by the warlocks’ decline for a long time, and he had always looked forward to the resurgence of the warlock’s profession in society. That was why he had stubbornly guarded every inch of the Warlock Division.

The inter-academy tournament meant a lot to Yun Qi, and he would not give up on an opportunity for the warlocks to regain their fame.

Ouyang Huanyu only needed to wait and see the warlock when they appeared in the final round!

At the same time, Shen Jiayi was in bed with a copper mirror in her hands. Her red and swollen eyes stared at her bald head in the mirror; her eyes revealed shame and resentment.

When she woke up seven days ago, she was stupefied when she saw her bed was covered in hair.

However, there was not a single strand of hair on her head, and even her eyebrows were shaved clean.

Shen Jiayi had always been proud of her beautiful appearance, so she could not take such a setback. So, she remained locked up in her room as she did not want anyone to see her appearance.

“Sister, the final round is tomorrow. Don’t you want to take a look?” As the only person who had seen Shen Jiayi’s miserable appearance, he cautiously sat on the chair as he did not dare to look at the bed.
