I rely on myself

Chapter 9 To participate or not to participate

Long Yueying said in a low voice: "Specifically, we will no longer use ability scores as the selection criteria, but will instead adopt a practical selection system that all students in the school can participate in."

With just one sentence, all the students present burst into an uproar.

That is
"This time, all students will compete against each other in actual combat to determine the winner. The six with the best performance will be selected as the representative contestants!"

Although Long Yueying still spoke in a low voice, she could not stop the high enthusiasm in the class.

"The schedule of the competition will be sent to your student handbook by the selection competition executive committee. Please confirm the time and go to the designated venue on the designated date."

"Students who fail to arrive within the allotted time will be deemed defeated without a fight."

“Students who do not want to participate can also voluntarily abstain.”

"However, as long as you want to participate, no matter how low your ability is or how poor your grades are, you can participate in this selection."

"Finally, if you can stand out from all the students in the school and get a high score, you can directly become a representative player and participate in the Seven Stars Sword Festival."

"Becoming the Seven-Star Sword King will no longer be a dream for you."

“Please keep up the good work!”

Long Yueying's words reached everyone's ears.

At this moment, all the students in the class had unprecedented enthusiasm in their eyes.

However, some weak or timid students asked, "So, teacher, is the competition using fantasy-formed spiritual equipment?"

——Fantasy Form

This is a mode of the inherent spiritual equipment of the Swordsmen. The inherent spiritual equipment in the fantasy form can still destroy inorganic objects such as walls and the ground, but it will not cause any damage when attacking living things, it will only forcibly reduce the opponent's physical strength.

It can also be said that it is precisely because of this that daily exchanges between students are guaranteed not to cause harm, allowing them to compete to their heart's content without having to worry about any risks.

"Unfortunately, this time the selection competition requires everyone to fight in real form. After all, this selection competition is to select the six students with the strongest actual combat abilities, so it is natural that we must follow the rules of the Seven Stars Sword Fighting Festival and fight in real form."

After hearing what the teacher said, many people immediately backed out. After all, many people became magic knights only because they wanted to get a high-paying and stable job after graduation with their qualifications as magic knights.

Most students expect such a stable life.

Long Yueying was not surprised. After all, he had been a teacher for so many years and such situations were not uncommon, so he was not surprised.

Soon today's tutoring time ended. Since today was the first day of school, there were no other classes.

When Lin Yuan saw this, he wanted to leave quickly, but unfortunately he was a step too late. Looking at Qianxia Qianyin waiting at the classroom door, Lin Yuan realized that he could not escape this time.

“…That’s about the details, so I told you not to worry too much.”

At this time, Lin Yuan and Qian Yin were walking side by side on the road.

After hearing what happened, Qianyin realized that Lin Yuan was not in any danger, but she still rebuked him, "Are you stupid? Fortunately, it was the teacher who tested you this time. If it was some other unknown person, you would have lured him to such a remote place, and you would have walked into a trap."

"Also, since you knew that the other person was a teacher in the college, you should have stopped. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been sent to the infirmary for treatment." Hearing this, Lin Yuan couldn't refute and could only nod yes repeatedly.

Just as Lin Yuan was thinking about how to get out, he saw a shocking scene out of the corner of his eye.

Ikki was seen lowering his head and kissing a petite girl. Everyone around who saw this scene was stunned by the bold behavior of the two people.

Qianyin, who was scolding Lin Yuan, couldn't help but feel curious when she saw Lin Yuan staring blankly in one direction. She turned her head to look in the same direction and saw this shocking scene.

The next moment, Stella, who was stunned by the scene of Ikki and the other man kissing so unscrupulously in front of her, reacted and immediately shouted: "What are you two doing!?!?!?"

Looking at the farce in front of him, Lin Yuan finally remembered.

"I didn't expect to see this scene. Then again, Yihui's sister is really amazing. She dared to do such a thing in public. Most people would probably want to find a hole to hide in."

"Don't look at Lin Yuan!" Qianyin, who had also come to her senses, immediately raised her hands with a red face, trying to cover Lin Yuan's eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan immediately dodged and shouted, "What are you crazy about?"

"This, that, me, you." Unfortunately, Qianyin couldn't explain it clearly after explaining for a long time.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan immediately understood what was going on. He grabbed Qianyin's waving hands and said to her, "Okay, okay, calm down first."

After hearing what Lin Yuan said, Qianyin stopped moving and took a few deep breaths before finally calming down.

"I, I'm fine, you...please let me go."

Although still a little nervous, Qianyin did calm down. Seeing this, Lin Yuan let go of Qianyin's hands.

"Okay, okay, you're still like this. You're not very good at dealing with things related to love."

Hearing this, Qianyin immediately retorted: "How can a normal student be good at dealing with such a thing?" After saying this, she continued to mutter something like "Those two are too bold", "In public..." and so on.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan had no choice but to smile bitterly and leave with Qianyin.

Perhaps because she had left the scene of the incident, Qianyin finally returned to normal.

But perhaps her mind had not yet fully recovered and she would think back to the scene just now from time to time, so along the way Qianyin would suddenly cover her face with her hands out of shyness from time to time.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan had no choice but to change the subject and said, "Everyone can participate in this year's trials. How about you, do you want to go?"

After hearing the question, Qianyin was no longer shy. After thinking for a while, she replied, "I want to participate. Although I might get hurt accidentally if I participate in the trials, after all, swords have no eyes. But when we become a magic knight in the future, we will also encounter such situations. It may even be more dangerous because we encounter enemies. That's why I have to familiarize myself with it in advance."

Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

"What about you? Although I know that you have been very low-key and have been hiding your strength since the beginning, after knowing you for so many years, I know that you must not be someone who is content with being ordinary." After finishing her answer, Qianyin asked Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan responded: "Of course my words are..."
