After several days of consecutive victories, the enthusiasm of the Flaming Red Squad rose up and down, and the final match of preselection was eventually over. The Flaming Red Squad advanced to the top eight with a record of complete victory.
After the preselection, they were given three days to prepare for the main event. These three days, besides resting, the Flaming Red Squad threw themselves in merriment.
The Royal Academy team they shared the inn with had also successfully entered the top eight. In a few days, the two teams would battle it out on the final battleground.
The atmosphere in the inn had become extremely strange. The two teams, which were as incompatible as fire and water, would have a strong smell of gunpowder and the possibility of exchanging blows at any time whenever they met each other.
"Is boss feeling uncomfortable these days? Why is she just staying in her room all day long?" Having just gotten back from eating and drinking, Shile stood in the corridor, looking towards Yan Di’s room with Zhanye as he spoke.
Zhanye’s expression was somewhat tangled. Their successive victories had not won their mentor’s approval at all. It was as if she had already anticipated such a result. Every time they reported to her, she just showed them a faint smile; even when they celebrated with a feast, she never participated.
This had somewhat frustrated Zhanye.
"Hey, don’t look so sad. Tomorrow we’re going to play in the final eight. Tonight we’re going to call the boss out and have a meal together." Shile was rather speechless about Zhanye’s ostrich mentality. If it weren’t for the burning gaze of this fellow whenever he looked at Yan Di, no one could tell that he was in love with her just by looking at his actions.
He had seen fools, but had never seen such a fool!
He unexpectedly was not making any moves at all!
"How about we just forget it; boss may be busy these days. The boss has been working very hard, she has been cultivating..." As soon as he said they were going to ask Shen Yanxiao out, Zhanye immediately flinched.
"You... could you make even a little move?" Shile really wanted to shoot this unfavourable teammate of his to death.
Where was the brutality you showed to your opponents these days? How come with just one mention of Mentor Yan Di’s name, you immediately become such a frightened quail?
Zhanye grabbed his head and said with some distress, "I, I don’t know what’s going on with me. Whenever I go to see boss these days, I always felt very weird. It’s like I’m being stared at by a pair of cold eyes. I just can’t describe how uncomfortable I am all over." Such a feeling had lasted for several days: as soon as Zhanye walked close to Shen Yanxiao’s room, everything felt weird, as if there were some evil entity in the room staring at him.
In a sense, Zhanye’s intuition was extraordinarily accurate!
These days, wasn’t some great master closely monitoring this "small rival" who was not afraid of threats as he cast flirtatious glances to his Little Xiao?
This great master did not kill him, not because of mercy, but because Zhanye’s fighting strength was just too weak in his eyes.
"You didn’t become silly from the matches, did you?" Shile looked at Zhanye. He didn’t feel anything of the sort.
"I’d better go train. Tomorrow’s top eight matches will begin... Wait. Once we get the first place, then we’ll go to see the boss again." As soon as Zhanye finished speaking, he turned around and left immediately.
Shile swiftly caught up.
Just at the door of the room that the two teenagers had been watching, a slender figure stood calm and unruffled as he crossed his arms, and his golden eyes were narrowed slightly, glancing faintly at Zhanye’s departing back.
Inside the room, the Dragon God stared furtively at the figure of some great master and muttered secretly.
Yo yo, who says that someone is not jealous, this is clearly bugging the fella’s mind!
Pretending to be calm ah!
