In the original book, Lianka took the initiative to cancel her engagement with Orson after he fell from grace, and later established a bond with Lit and became one of Lit's harem.

This is a good opportunity for Lit and Lianka to get to know each other and have some contact in advance, which will also make it easier for him to take the initiative to find Lianka to cancel the engagement in the future.

After all, when the engagement was made, Duke Prussia must have been attracted by the bloodline of the Stranik family. Since he had no blood relationship with Lucius, he was already a cuckoo in the nest. Now that the original owner is back, they can discuss whether the engagement can be changed to Litt's.

"Well, Lit, let me introduce you. This is Lianka, or my fiancée as they say."

Thinking of this, Orson began to introduce the two people.

"Lianka, this is Lit, the child that our father lost outside and has just returned to the family recently."

The two shook hands reluctantly, then loosened their hands in an instant and took a step back.

Orson looked at the somewhat awkward atmosphere between the two people and didn't know what to do.

No, weren't you a couple in the original novel? Why is the atmosphere so cold now?

It’s okay that Lianka is cold, but why does even Leeteuk, who is always introverted and shy, look so bad?

Litt was staring at Lianka at the moment. The girl in front of him looked very arrogant and definitely looked down on him, a little noble who had just returned from the countryside.

Of course, the most important thing is that she is actually Orson’s brother’s fiancée!

In other words, Brother Orson will marry her in the future!

After marrying her, Brother Orson will separate from me to take care of the family, right? !

No, this is unacceptable!

As Litt thought about this, he felt that Lianka in front of him was becoming more and more annoying.

Chapter 40: Business Compliments

Lianka was looking at Orson and Litt, feeling very unhappy. According to her estimated scores, she would definitely be ranked first in the qualifying round, and then she would just have to wait for others to challenge her.

But now I see that there are people with higher scores than me, and they were taught by Orson!

Thinking of this, Lianka's deep pride made her feel as if she was severely humiliated.

Then she looked at Leeteuk.

"Leet, you are the first pair, right?"

"Yeah." Litt nodded.

"Okay, then I'll challenge you in the qualifying round!" Li

Anka said this and pointed at Lit.

"Eh? Me?" Li Te was a little surprised when he heard that.

"Yeah, what's the matter, don't you dare?"

"No, it's just..."

"Then stop talking nonsense and hesitate like a noble!" Lianka said, and then walked into the school gate. "See you at the martial arts arena. I hope you don't back down when the qualifying competition starts."

"Ah, of course. In order to keep the first position, you can't back down." Lianka snorted coldly, then slowly walked away.

"I'm sorry if I was a little rude, but I have to go first." Olivia said, bowing to Lit and Orson to apologize, and then followed Lianka's footsteps.

"Lite, that Lianka has the strength of the fourth level. Do you want to fight her?" Orson asked softly after Lianka walked away.

"She should be the best among the students in this class. She is the second best. If you refuse to compete with her and give her your place, you can also be admitted as the second best."

Orson said this not only because he thought it would be difficult for Lit to defeat Lianka, but also to prevent the relationship between the two from deteriorating because of this conflict.

"Orson, you were the one who taught me, right?" Litt said this and looked at Orson.

"Yeah." Orson nodded.

"If I refuse, Orson will lose face, right?"

"Others would say that people taught by Orson would take shortcuts and look for opportunities, and they have no real skills or knowledge."

"Not really..." Orson said, shaking his head. "To be honest, I don't care much about reputation."

"As long as you can grow up safely, that's enough for me."

Lit said, "Orson, you taught me before that flowers in a greenhouse cannot grow big. That's why you asked me to go to the forest to face the beast alone that day."

"Now, are you going to treat me like a flower in a greenhouse again?"

"No... I just..." Orson said this, not knowing how to explain, and then he could only sigh. "Forget it, since it's your idea, Li Te, I will definitely respect it."

"However, Lit, you have to be careful. A fourth-level human is not comparable to a third-level beast like the Wolf King."

"I know." Li Te smiled and pointed to his head. "It's just that I can use my brain. My brain is not bad at all."

"Okay." Orson nodded after hearing this, and then rushed to the training ground with Litt.

The martial arts arena was much quieter than the crowds of people yesterday.

There were only a thousand students and a hundred invigilators to supervise.

In the ranking of the qualifying round, the eight hundred students who had taken the exam were ranked in the top eight hundred according to their scores, while the two hundred students nominated by the nobles were randomly ranked in the bottom two hundred.

Generally speaking, the first challenge is initiated by the nominating students to the test-takers.

Many recommended students are no less capable than the candidates, but they are recommended just because they don't want to take the exam and their family happens to have vacancies.

These people attach great importance to ranking, so they will choose suitable opponents at the beginning and take away their ranking.

And some recommended students are there purely to accompany their masters to study and serve them. It doesn't matter if they can just graduate, or even fail to graduate in the end.

Then, as expected, after everyone arrived, the nominating students started to attack the test takers first.

And these are just small additions to the qualifying round.

The real main course was served right at the beginning.

As the second-ranked Lianneka challenged the first-ranked Leeteuk.

And Lit gladly accepted Lianka's challenge.

Orson and Olivia sat in the audience, watching their brother/sister's competition, and they felt worried.

In the ring, Lianka looked at Lit with a contemptuous tone.

"I didn't expect you to actually accept the challenge. I thought you were a coward."

"Let me make it clear first. I'm a fourth-level warrior. If we start fighting, don't blame me for not using enough force."

Lit remained indifferent to Lianka's provocation.

She knew that Lianka wanted to stir up her emotions and make her angry so that she could find her weakness.

"Your plan doesn't work on me." Lit shook his head and looked at Lianka.

"Is that so?" Lianka lowered her head.

Just when Lit was still wondering what she was going to do, she suddenly drew the sword from her waist and stabbed at Lit.

In the qualifying round, both sides have magic armor specially made by the academy, which can be used to resist fatal attacks.

Once the magic armor is broken, one side will be defeated.

Lianka was very fast, and even though Lit was on guard, he was still a beat slower.

Fortunately, I made a prediction in advance and made up for the speed gap.

Just barely dodged Lianka's sword.

"Good reaction." Lianka said this, and without pausing, she changed her stabbing into a slash and slashed towards Litt.

Lit leaned back, dodged Lianka's swing, and hit back.

Although she didn't say anything, her heart was already filled with anger.

Brother Orson! You're actually going to marry such an arrogant, rude and disrespectful female creature!?

She vented all her frustrations on the fight, then slashed at Lianka with her sword.

Lianka quickly parried, and then easily blocked Litt's sword.

The distance between the two widened again.

"It seems you don't like me." Lianka saw the expression on Lit's face when he swung the sword just now, "Coincidentally, I don't like you either."

Afterwards, the two figures fought again.

Although Litt was only at the third level of strength, he relied on his experience gained from fighting among wolves and his moves were fierce, and he was able to fight Lianka on equal terms.

Even Orson in the audience couldn't help but stand up and applaud Litt.

Should I say he is worthy of being the protagonist? Challenging higher levels is as easy as eating and drinking.

Fortunately, I didn't provoke Lit before, otherwise Lit would be able to jump one level to challenge Lianka now, and it would be easy for him to jump four levels and kill me in the future, right?

Having said that, considering that Olivia is still around, Orson really can't take sides too obviously.

We still need to promote each other commercially.

"Lianka has reached the fourth-level warrior level at such a young age. She must have a bright future."

"No, no, it's Litt who is the one. He has only been home for a short time, but he has already reached the third level. He can even fight with the fourth level Lianka. Litt is still more talented."

However, the two of them forgot that just a year ago, in the same place, the battle between two people, one at level six and the other at level five, was even more exciting than this.

Chapter 41: Each session is worse than the last

As time passed, the situation on the scene gradually became clearer.

Lit was panting, but Lianka still looked at ease.

"It seems that Lianka is still better now." Orson said this and looked at Olivia. "Congratulations, your little sister will be admitted to the new first grade of the Imperial Academy with the first place."

"Thank you for the compliment." Olivia smiled, but still said politely: "The competition hasn't even reached the end yet, no one knows what will happen, right?"

"Well, that's true."

On the field, Litt had consumed a lot of energy in the hand-to-hand combat and was now crouching slightly.

This not only saves energy, but also allows you to quickly dodge when the opponent attacks.

"It seems that I am still better." Lianka smiled. "Orson only taught you a lesson, and now you are defeated by me."

As she spoke, Lianka had forgotten that she had previously boasted that she wanted to compete with Orson, and now her target had been set on Orson's little apprentice, Litt.

"Oh, you want to catch up with Orson like this?" Litt sneered disdainfully. "If that's all you have in mind, you'll never be able to catch up with Orson in your lifetime."

"You!" Litt's words obviously angered Lianka, making her already slightly red cheeks even redder. Then, she angrily rushed towards Litt and began to attack regardless of her physical strength, wanting to defeat Litt directly.

Then, with a "clang", Litt's sword was knocked away and fell behind Lianka.

"Now it seems that I have won, right?" Lianka smiled and looked at Lit, who had no weapon in front of him and could only look at her. "Give up the first place obediently."

At this time, Lianka looked in the direction of the invigilator.

"Teacher, it's time to announce the results."

"Uh..." The invigilator was stunned for a moment, then pointed behind Lianka.

Lianka looked back and saw that the long sword that Litt had just knocked down had flown up for some reason and was pointing at her neck.

The girl's eyes widened instantly.

"This is…

... "

Third-level magic, enchanted weapons.

Similar to the principle of a magic carpet, magic can be used to control weapons without using hands.

Litt deliberately let the sword fly behind Lianka, and then when Lianka finished mocking him and looked at the invigilator with her attention not on him, he secretly used the magic of enchanted weapon.

By the time Lianka reacted, Litt had already firmly grasped her weak spot.

"I declare that Lit Stranik wins this competition and the ranking remains unchanged." The invigilator then said.

As the invigilator finished speaking, Lit breathed a sigh of relief and then canceled the magic of the enchanted weapon.
