Actually, after Katya was rejected by Lugh that day, she showed a nonchalant attitude.
But in reality, all of this was just a pretense.
To think that a girl confessing her love to a boy in public was already a very controversial matter. Who would have thought that she would actually be rejected?
Was she very bad?
What kind of joke is this? She is the publicly acknowledged school beauty of Grade 3. In terms of talent and looks, she is simply the existence of a perfect goddess.
Lugh actually dared to reject in public?
This matter caused her to feel uncomfortable.
Teacher Moka brought Lugh to stand in front of these students and said to the crowd, “This student is called Lugh. He was originally a Grade 1 student, but Lugh’s talent is extraordinary. His strength has improved very quickly, far surpassing the standards of the lower grade students.”
“Therefore, the school unanimously decided to let Lugh directly jump to study in our class.”
“From today onwards, Lugh will be your classmate.”
As soon as Teacher Moka finished speaking, the students below exploded.
“What the hell? He became our classmate?!”
“What kind of joke is this? Jumping a grade?”
“In thousands of years, no one in the Rune Academy has jumped a grade, right?”
“Hehe, does this person really have this level?”
…
“Alright, everyone be quiet!”
Moka didn’t expect that the students in his own class would have such a strong reaction towards the matter of Lugh skipping a grade. He hurriedly asked everyone to be quiet.
After waiting for the students to completely calm down, Moka continued, “Because Lugh is a new student, he doesn’t have a battle squad. Which battle squad would be willing to accept Lugh?”
This time, all the students shut their mouths.
What a joke! How could they accept a student who had just entered the school?
Even if Lugh’s talent was extraordinary, he could not have the standard that a Grade 3 Beast Master should have.
Under such a level that they did not understand Lugh’s strength, of course, they would not accept Lugh to join their team.
If they accepted Lugh to join their team, they would be adding a burden to themselves.
In their eyes, Lugh was just a burden.
Moka did not look at the students below. All of them had their heads lowered. Some of them simply shook their heads with expressions of rejection.
When Moka looked at the last student, Katya, she simply snorted and turned her head away.
The meaning was obvious. It was simply a dream for her to accept Lugh.
Lugh didn’t have any expression on his face when he saw this scene.
He was already used to this kind of situation.
Besides, how could a phoenix and a pheasant stay together?
Therefore, Lugh directly said to Moka, “Teacher Moka, I think it’s better to forget it. I’ll be fine by myself. Previously, when I was a Grade 1 student, I also acted alone.”
Hehe.
Hearing Lugh’s words, the Grade 3 students below immediately revealed a sneer and ridicule.
In the crowd, there was a boy who stood up.
He was tall and big. He was three years older than Lugh, but his height was about the same as Lugh’s. The corner of his mouth carried a trace of a teasing smile as he said to Lugh, “Little Junior, I’ve heard of you before. I originally thought that it was just a rumor spread by others. I didn’t expect you to be really arrogant. However, did you make a mistake?”
“This is the third grade. Our trial is also targeted at Grade 3 students. Although you are outstanding in the first grade, if you are not careful here, you will die!”
If people who did not know heard this boy’s words, they would have thought that it was because of his concern for Lugh.
However, in reality, Lugh knew that he was being ridiculed.
However, Lugh didn’t mind. He replied indifferently, “Learning from seniors reminding me. I got it!”
Seeing Lugh’s calm attitude, these students subconsciously made an evaluation of Lugh.
Lugh wasn’t confident, he was simply arrogant.
Not to mention Lugh, who had just entered the academy, even Grade 3 seniors like them didn’t dare to act alone in this area, let alone kill Fierce Beasts with their own strength.
“You!”
The Grade 3 boy who had spoken earlier had an unfriendly expression, he said to Moka, “Teacher, since this little junior has such confidence, then let me test whether this little junior has the strength or not. Otherwise, once he really reaches Mysterious Fantasy Mountain, he’ll be waiting to be killed by the Fierce Beasts.”
This boy’s name was Hebron.
Moka sensed the fury in Hebron’s eyes.
He knew that he was trying to show off to Lugh.
He didn’t think that Lugh was a match for Hebron.
So he frowned and said, “If you want to challenge Lugh, you need Lugh’s permission.”
“I agree.”
Lugh nodded and agreed.
Moka was stunned.
He thought that Lugh would refuse.
He didn’t expect Lugh to agree?
What he said just now was actually for Lugh.
Lugh looked at Moka calmly.
He could already tell that this Grade 3 class didn’t welcome him.
He was still ostracized and isolated like he was in the first grade even though he didn’t do anything.
As for the reason, it could be because Lugh jumped grades, or it could be because of Katya…
But it didn’t matter. Lugh didn’t feel anything about it.
Since the person in front of him wanted to challenge him…
Then he would fight!
Let them understand his strength as a Beast Master.
Let them know that he wasn’t pretending.
He really didn’t need them.
He was the one who rejected these people.
These people were the real burden to him.
These third grade seniors would only hold him back.
Seeing how decisive and indifferent Lugh was, Moka could only swallow the words of dissuasion in his heart.
Since Lugh had agreed, then this battle was inevitable.
“Good. Since Student Lugh has accepted the challenge from the Hebron, then this battle will officially take effect,” Moka said in a deep voice. “I will be the host of this battle. The rules are very simple. Both sides will send out their respective Divine Beasts to battle until one side admits defeat!”
“Do you have any questions?”
“No.”
“No.”
Both Lugh and Hebron answered at the same time.
