Chapter 199: Chapter 151 Assassinating the Sea Emperor_2
"Heh! Fair enough, I’ll be waiting for the day you beat me until I beg for mercy. It’s just a pity that I won’t be able to see it in my lifespan of three hundred years." Ruoshan said with a laugh.
The series of battles had terrified both Wesley, the chef, and Mosquito, who were spectating. Not to mention fighting, they believed that being able to stand without shaking in front of the Tiger Whale Warrior was already a great achievement. Who would have expected that Long Yi not only fought with the Tiger Whale Warrior, but also managed to draw with him!
Really fierce!
Really impressive!
Really not on our level!
The three of them looked at each other, then upward at Long Yi and the massive Tiger Whale Warrior in the distance and felt a wave of sadness, choking with emotion.
While we were struggling to learn combat skills, others were already on friendly terms with the Tiger Whale Warrior! Why is this world so unfair! Why is heaven so cruel to us!
"What are you guys doing, performing a mime?" Ai Lin asked, puzzled by the three men’s exaggerated facial expressions and their look of frustration.
"Don’t mind us, let us grieve a bit longer. If we don’t take this opportunity to motivate ourselves, we, people with no sense of motivation, would surely forget about our training!" The chef said bitterly.
"Is that so?" Ai Lin was skeptical. As she knew very well that these three had been treating Long Yi as their target for overtaking and had been training hard. It could be said that their degree of dedication to training was even stronger than Long Yi’s and Ai Lin’s! They certainly wouldn’t forget about training!
The three said nothing more and continued down their path of frustration. Even though the chef said that, they could all see a certain spirit in each other’s eyes. A spirit that screams: I won’t give in!
I won’t give in!
"Why is he the strongest! Why not me?"
These words were in the chef’s eyes.
"Why did he defeat the Tiger Whale Warrior so skillfully! Why not me?"
These words were in Mosquito’s eyes.
"Why does he have beautiful women following him! Why not me?"
These words were in Wesley’s eyes.
"..."
"..."
The chef and Mosquito glared at Wesley, and Wesley’s words immediately changed: "Why could he discern the weaknesses! Why not me!"
The duel ended in a draw, with both sides having suffered injuries. But since it wasn’t a fight to the death, no one took it too seriously.
Sea Emperor gazed at the Frostmourne in Long Yi’s hand, his eyes a little dazed. Long Yi initially wanted to simply give it to the Sea Emperor as a token of appreciation, but after some thought, he still couldn’t bear to part with it. He had just retrieved it from Elsa, he hadn’t even had a chance to grow fond of it, so how could he give it away?
After these matters were settled, it was time for the exchange between the Emperor and the Sea Emperor. The Sea Emperor had come with effort and couldn’t leave just like that. They needed to agree on some preliminary intentions and conditions for the exchange. Of course, all of this was unrelated to Long Yi and the others.
That afternoon, the Sea Emperor finally wrapped up all kinds of meetings with the Emperor. From the relaxed expressions on both their faces, it was clear that the negotiation was a success.
Still at the front gate of the academy, still with the Dean who resembled Gandalf. The Emperor and the Sea Emperor stood side by side, waiting for the Teleportation Gate to open. The students of the Dragon Rider Academy once again congested the area, although, of course, the road in the center was cleared. The situation looked like the red carpet of the Academy Awards, except for the lack of blinding camera flashes.
"Something’s not right."
Long Yi said.
"What?"
Ai Lin asked from his side.
"What’s wrong?"
Wesley, the chef, and Mosquito were also near. They heard Long Yi’s declaration amid the noise and asked together.
"I feel something is wrong, but I can’t pinpoint what exactly is off." Long Yi furrowed his brow. He has always trusted his instincts, a sort of battlefield intuition he had developed. He knew there must be something he had seen but overlooked, which was why his instincts were sounding an alarm.
"Wesley, scan for anything unusual around us. Ai Lin, Little Zi, Chef, Mosquito. Be prepared, trouble is brewing!"
Wesley had never seen Long Yi with such an expression. He raised his hand immediately, and the Observation Dragon took flight. At the same time, Wesley activated his other talents, which he had been honing daily.
"Observation Technique!"
This was a magical skill. Once activated, it could allow Wesley to search for anything he wished to detect in his surroundings based purely on his will.
"There are several people standing in the crowd ahead, but they look very nervous."
"How many?" Long Yi asked.
"Three...no, four!" Wesley replied with certainty.
"Anything else?" Long Yi continued to ask.
"Yes, there are two older men to the right wearing hats that cover their faces. The bracelets on their hands are fake."
"Anything else?"
"Nothing else, I only found these few." Wesley replied.
"Alright, Chef, you do this and that; Mosquito, you do this and that; Ai Lin and Little Zi, follow me. Wesley, keep an eye on those people. I hope I’m being overly cautious, but if not, things are about to get complicated!" Long Yi said slowly.
