Chapter 308: Entrance Ceremony (2)


    When the headmistress appeared on the stage, everything quieted down.


    Every student, even the ones who were dozing off after the boring speeches of the previous people, directed their gazes towards her.


    Both men and women were attracted by the powerful headmistress'' mysterious temperament. They could not help but gasp when they saw the legendary headmistress in person.


    "Is she the headmistress?"


    "She is so beautiful."


    "God, I just fell in love."


    "How can someone be so beautiful?"


    "She looks strong."


    The beautiful headmistress smiled when she heard thepliments of the students. She then waved her hand, causing every student to fall silent.


    "I''m happy to see many new faces today. As the headmistress of this city, I find joy in the fact that so many talented youngsters are interested in studying here.


    "Many of you don''t know it, but when I created this city, I envisioned something like this. A ce where any student, regardless of race or status, could chase after his dreams. A ce where they could develop their full potential.


    "Each one of you is a young talent. Someone with the potential to make a name by yourselves in any ce of the continent. But here, here you will be more than that. Here you will polish your talents to show the world their true worth. When you leave this city, you will be someone worthy of admiration!"


    Bloed heard the words of the headmistress attentively. He waspletely engrossed in her speech.


    For some reason, he found it... inspiring.


    There was something about her aura that seemed to give credibility to her words. It was as though just her very presence was enough to inspire confidence.


    Bloed was sure it was not a kind of mind-maniption technique nor anything like that.


    No, it was just the effect of her aura.


    It was the first time Bloed felt something like that.


    The speechsted almost ten minutes and was the longest speech of the entire ceremony. But strangely, none of the students was distracted or dozed off during it.


    Even the students that had been here for several years and had listened to her speech several times listened with rapt attention.


    It was as though they were afraid of missing a single word.


    In fact, when Bloed looked around him, he could see that Liu Ying, Aya, and Prince Calisto were staring at the headmistress with admiration.


    ''What a woman...'' Bloed smiled wryly to himself.


    The only one that seemed unaffected was Regina, but it was normal considering Regina''s powerful strength.


    When the headmistress finished speaking, the entire za erupted in a loud ovation. The cheers and apusessted an entire minute!


    It was the first time Bloed saw someone with such high poprity.


    Once the apuse faded out, the headmistress waved her hand with a smile, calming the students again.


    "Very well, now that the speeches have finished, it''s time to start with today''s festival! Now, I''ll exin the rules.


    "Each one of you received an invitation for today''s ceremony, right? Please take it out."


    Bloed''s group took out their invitations curiously. At the same time, the students around them took out their invitations as well, each one of them waiting for the headmistress''s next words.


    The headmistress curved her lips up yfully and waved her hand.


    "Activate."


    As soon as that word sounded out, each invitation letter lit up.


    Some of them started to emit a blue glow, and others a red glow. The glow of the letters was so ring that it could be seen from the distance.


    The headmistress smiled. She ignored themotion of the students and started to exin.


    "For today''s event, I have divided the neers into two groups, blue and red. The two groups willpete against each other during today''s festival, trying to defeat their opponents. Once all the members of one of the groups are defeated, that group will lose.


    "Moreover, the members of the clubs will also participate. They can defeat members of any group or fight among themselves to win points. The club with the most points when a group loses will be the winner."


    The students looked at each other stunned. This...


    This was crazy!


    Moreover, how were they supposed to fight against the members of the clubs? They were much stronger than them! And was the headmistress not afraid of students dying during the chaos?


    As though understanding their concerns, the headmistress continued exining.


    "Don''t worry, the clubs can only send a limited number of members, with at most five B-Ranks, ten C-Ranks, and twenty D-Ranks. As for the danger of injuries, that invitation does not only serve to identify your team, but it will also keep a barrier around you constantly. Once that barrier is broken, it will emit a mental shock that will render the user unconscious, dering his elimination. At the same time, it will generate another stronger barrier around the students to protect them from being injured. If someone attacks that second barrier intentionally with the intent to cause injuries, he will be heavily punished. Thus, you don''t need to worry, your safety will be guarantee.


    "Right, it''s forbidden to hide inside a building during the event. If someone does that, he will be immediately disqualified.


    "When the event ends, the neers that survived and the club with more points will receive a reward. Do you understand?"


    The students looked at each other stunned. This game was crazy


    Even Bloed was shocked. To think they created a barrier for each student. This kind of extravagance was unheard of.


    Only this city could think of something like this!


    However, there was something else that was worrying him.


    For some reason, neither his invitation letter nor Liu Ying, Regina, and Aya''s letters were glowing.


    Bloed frowned and looked at the stage with the intent to ask about that. But at that moment, his eyes met the headmistress''s gaze.


    And for some reason, he got the feeling she smiled mischievously.


    Instantly, a bad presentment filled him.


    ''It can''t be...''


    And his bad hunch came true in the next second.


    "Right, I almost forgot about it." The headmistress suddenly said with a gentle smile. "Besides the blue and red teams, there is also another very special team."


    At that moment, Bloed, Liu Ying, and Aya''s invitations started to emit a golden glow as the headmistress continued exining.


    "If you defeat someone with a golden glow, you will immediately earn a reward. But if someone with a golden glow survives until the end, he will receive a reward as well."


    Almost instantly, the gazes of all the students fell on Bloed''s group.


    Their gazes were filled with curiosity, confusion, fighting intent, and greed.


    Liu Ying and Aya were stunned, and Bloed wanted to curse. What the hell was it?


    ''Did we offend this woman in any way? But we don''t even know her!''


    ''Could it be a coincidence?''


    However, the next words of the headmistress denied Bloed''s guess.


    "Right, as for the demigod girl mixed with the students, you better don''t think about protecting them. It''s not good to interfere in the fights of children."


    Bloed immediately confirmed it.


    For some reason, the headmistress was targeting them.
