And there were quite a few people watching from the sidelines.
After all, they were all senior students. If they were defeated, they would lose face, not to mention that they were the ones who initiated the provocation.
But right from the start, if they directly defeated Lin Ming, wouldn’t that be a slap to the principal’s face?
Therefore, at this time, the smarter ones were all waiting for the first person to eat the crab.
At this time, several senior mages of the Green Academy began to secretly discuss.
One had to know that becoming the captain in the competition, even if it was at the bottom of the ranking, would still have a lot of benefits.
Therefore, they looked at Lin Ming, who was directly chosen as the captain. Naturally, they were extremely unwilling.
Moreover, jealousy made people completely unrecognizable.
Their methods were not as low-end as letting a Tier 1 Mage exhaust Lin Ming’s patience.
“Let many Tier 3 and above mages challenge within a day.”
A senior mage suggested.
“Sure, a Tier 3 Mage is the main force. Do you have any methods to make them all work for us?”
A Tier 3 Mage’s status in the academy wasn’t low.
And with Lin Ming’s current strength, the only ones who could influence him were Tier 3 and above mages.
“Spread rumors and exaggerate the temptation. After all, everyone will be unconvinced by the internal decision this time.”
A student spoke.
In fact, the hearts of the people were the easiest to be bewitched.
Moreover, the internal decision this time had already caused dissatisfaction among the crowd.
As long as they fanned the flames a little, Lin Ming would receive a large number of challenges.
“There isn’t much time. Let’s carry out this matter immediately.”
The people who were discussing here quickly stood up.
In their hearts, they naturally thought that the fisherman would reap the benefits.
However, this method was still too child’s play for Lin Ming.
Less than two hours after the meeting held by the principal ended, the door of Lin Ming’s dormitory was filled with a sea of people.
Lin Ming was helpless. Right now, it was really difficult for him to even eat.
“All challengers, please come to the training ground. I will not refuse anyone’s challenge.”
Lin Ming walked in front, and everyone consciously made way for him for a day.
Lin Ming knew that if he did not want to spend the rest of his days in the training ground, he would need to use his own methods.
“In a battle, the slightest mistake will cause uncontrollable things to happen. In a magical battle, there are many dangers.”
Lin Ming spoke, and his methods began to show.
“Therefore, all challengers who want me to defeat me need to sign a contract before they fight with me.”
Lin Ming took out a contract that he had prepared long ago.
“In a battle with me, if you are injured, neither I nor the challenger will be held responsible, even if you are crippled or even dead!”
Lin Ming opened his mouth and looked around.
As Lin Ming entered the training ground, the place was already filled with people.
Although most of them were just watching the show, there were still quite a few challengers who were eager to give it a try.
“Hiss…”
“This kid is really ruthless.”
As Lin Ming took out the contract, discussions immediately broke out.
Lin Ming’s move was really ruthless. This was a fight, and had to sign a life and death contract.
Not to mention a Tier 1 or a Tier 2 mage giving up the opportunity to harass, even a Tier 3 Mage had to think twice before challenging him.
After all, although they were not convinced that Lin Ming was the appointed captain, they all knew that this kid, Lin Ming, was a monster.
Some of the older students were not a match for Lin Ming either.
Among Tier 3 Mages, there were probably not many who could fight him.
“A Tier 4 or even a Tier 5 Mage is challenging you. Do you dare to sign this contract?”
At this moment, a loud voice sounded.
Although this voice was loud, it gave off a cold and gloomy feeling.
Everyone turned around. This person was one of the mages who had discussed with the upper grades to create public opinion.
Lin Ming’s method had caused his earlier efforts to be in vain. Naturally, he was extremely angry.
“Of course.”
Lin Ming looked at this person and nodded solemnly.
“Even if a mage with a tier than me injured me in the battle, I will not pursue any responsibility.”
Lin Ming nodded. Since he had taken out this contract, he had his own confidence!
Even if a real Tier 5 Mage fought with him, what was the harm?
Under the circumstances that he would not reveal any of his secrets, Lin Ming was confident that he could win!
“Good, you’re straightforward and domineering.”
After Lin Ming nodded, another voice appeared.
Everyone looked in the same direction with respect.
Because the owner of this voice was none other than Reg!
Everyone clicked their tongues, thinking ‘you must be biased to come here’.
However, everyone knew that Reg had a fiery temper. Even upper grade mages didn’t want to touch this bad luck.
However, with Reg’s appearance, some of their plans became even more difficult to carry out.
This made them even angrier.
“For the first round, is there anyone who wants to challenge me? If not, I don’t want to waste my time here.”
Lin Ming opened his mouth and looked around.
Although he was only at Tier 3, he gave so many people a formless and powerful pressure.
“Let me do it!”
As Lin Ming’s voice fell, a burly man rushed forward.
This man did not waste any words and directly signed his name on the contract.
“This person can be considered famous among Tier 3 Mages.”
Everyone watched the first battle very seriously.
After all, Lin Ming did not make many moves in school.
In addition, after Lin Ming had become a Tier 3 Mage in such a short period of time, no one had ever seen him fight.
They also wanted to see the true strength of Lin Ming, the chosen captain.
“Please!”
Lin Ming had a good attitude towards the first challenger.
“Good, I’ll let you, a guy who uses the back door, see how powerful I am!”
The burly man in front of him said arrogantly. The surrounding magic power surged and rushed toward Lin Ming.
“Fire Snake Spell.”
Lin Ming only cast a Tier 1 spell in the face of the attack.
“Facing a Tier 3 attack spell, this Lin Ming only used the Fire Snake Spell to attack?”
“This kid is too arrogant. He’s destined to suffer a little.”
No one in the crowd believed that a Tier 1 spell, the simplest one, could collide with a Tier 3 spell.
“Whoosh!”
The Fire Snake Spell was extremely condensed, and with a piercing sound, it shot toward the burly man.
As the Fire Snake Spell arrived, the burly man let out a miserable cry. He couldn’t control his body and fell heavily to the ground!
The spell that hit Lin Ming was easily neutralized by Lin Ming.
“What’s going on?!”
Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them.
“This guy, could he be a procrastinator?”
Looking at the burly man on the ground, this thought couldn’t help but be born in everyone’s mind.
