People were stunned into silence by the battle that had just taken place.
It could be said that Long Yi had hardly shown any of the combat skills of a mage. His fighting style was just like when he was a dragon warrior, brutal and completely unreasonable. He used the simplest and most violent methods to directly overpower his opponent with sheer force.
Sewe's eyes twitched, and her mouth opened and closed several times before she finally managed to recover from her shock.
"This... This doesn't count! This doesn't count as you winning by strength! This... This is all luck! It's all luck!"
Sewe shouted loudly.
Long Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes; this girl was really persistent.
"How can it not count? Did Brother Long get help from someone else? Or did Brother Long cheat?"
Ailin, upon hearing Sewe start to act unreasonable, immediately became unhappy. Although Ailin wasn't particularly good at arguing, she wasn't afraid when it came to reason! It was clearly Brother Long who won!
"Even though he didn't cheat and didn't get help from anyone, it wasn't his own strength! Look at the speed he cast spells, and the last four consecutive lightning strikes. It was clearly the effect of double casting, and the probability of that happening is so small, yet he managed to trigger it. That's his good luck, not his strength!"
Sewe shouted loudly, looking around to try to get the surrounding classmates to agree with her.
"That double casting is also Brother Long's spell. The low probability of triggering it was also triggered by Brother Long. The mana is Brother Long's mana, and the spell is Brother Long's spell. How can you say it's luck? If you had this kind of luck, you could try it too!"
As she spoke, Ailin shook her small fist, scaring Sewe into immediately shrinking back. Forget it, Sewe would rather face Long Yi in battle than the mage killer Ailin. Who would dare to try it?
Sewe wanted to say more, but Long Yi had already walked over. Sewe looked at Long Yi, took a step back, then took two steps forward, looking at Long Yi without backing down, her eyes full of defiance and challenge.
Long Yi pulled Ailin over, laughed, and said, "Alright, since you're not convinced, this round counts as your win. I admit defeat."
"Huh? Brother Long, how can that be? It's clearly you who won! How can you admit defeat?" Ailin was puzzled.
"What's the big deal? We know who won and who lost."
"Oh, I understand!"
Ailin looked up at Long Yi, her admiration for him growing even more.
Truly, Brother Long is great! He doesn't hold grudges against small people! How magnanimous! How generous! In comparison, Sewe is so petty!
But, Ailin, you've got it wrong!
Long Yi is not that magnanimous at all! He values winning and losing more than anyone else!
The reason Long Yi can casually admit defeat is that he won!
Long Yi has always been like this. On the battlefield, victory and defeat are life and death. For an enemy he has already defeated, he doesn't care what they say. If he likes, he could even have their tombstone inscribed with "I defeated Long Yi" and still not care, and might even go to lay flowers for them.
Long Yi's words left Sewe momentarily speechless. She had originally thought that after her unreasonable behavior, Long Yi would argue based on reason, or even fly into a rage and start a fight. But who would have thought that Long Yi would neither be angry nor upset, and would simply say, "You win." What could she say to that?
"Even if... Even if you say I win, it's not right!"
Sewe started to act unreasonable.
"Huh, winning isn't right? Then tell me, what would be right?"
Long Yi was at a loss and decided to ask.
"This..."
Sewe had only blurted it out in a moment of urgency. How could she know what would be right?
Long Yi frowned. What was this girl thinking? He really didn't want to fight, and any creature with more than ten nerve cells should understand that. And Long Yi believed that Sewe understood it too. So it was strange, why was she going to such lengths to keep bothering him? What did she want?
Blind admiration? Hatred born of love?
Nonsense.
Even if he thought about it, Long Yi didn't believe he was a heartthrob. Who would like him besides Elsa? Oh, and Ailin? No, no, no, Long Yi shook his head vigorously. This little girl was just a typical case of blind admiration, like the fans of Justin Bieber who would hug and kiss anyone who looked like him on the street. Long Yi was confident that Ailin's smart little head would soon realize that he, a big oaf, was completely unsuitable for her.
Alright, since it's not blind admiration, then it's interesting.
Long Yi definitely smelled a conspiracy.
But this conspiracy... How awkward is it? Even he, who rarely thinks, found it awkward. If it really met a master conspirator, this little conspiracy would be easily exposed.
Alright, whatever it is, any conspiracy ultimately relies on force. Before the force arrives, Long Yi didn't care to figure out the details. Brother Long is a warrior! He only kills! He doesn't think!
"Alright, alright, I really don't have time to play with you anymore. Look at these two textbooks? There are a total of sixty-five theorems and formulas to memorize. I plan to advance to third grade in two months. You guys just don't add to the chaos."
Long Yi waved his hand, genuinely not wanting to continue. Ailin grabbed Long Yi's arm, made a face at Sewe, and the two turned to leave the training ground, heading for the spell classroom. Long Yi needed to memorize the formulas and convert his recent combat experience into knowledge.
Just now, Long Yi was only learning, but he didn't know what specific effects his spells had. Even he knew that the three consecutive double castings were just luck. However, he had a vague feeling that there was something hidden in this luck. But before he understood the theory of spells, he couldn't grasp these hidden things, so he was eager to study.
Knowledge is power.
As Long Yi and Ailin left, Sewe stood there with a dejected look. She knew her plan had failed, and it had failed completely and utterly.
It's all that idiot Loch's fault!
He said to deal with someone like Long Yi, you need to use a beauty trap, and that Long Yi likes unreasonable and fierce girls, with Ailin as proof. Damn it, she shouldn't have helped him. How could anyone be so stupid as to have their girlfriend use a beauty trap on someone else?
The more Sewe thought about it, the angrier she became. Then she saw her second brother still lying on the ground, and could only apologize in her heart. Her second-year conflict had involved her brother, and she didn't know how angry he would be when he found out the truth.
At this moment, Seren slowly woke up, and the two girls who had come with him helped him sit up. Seren's eyes were blank, as if he had been greatly shocked. Sewe nervously approached and softly called, "Second brother?"
Seren finally looked up, saw Sewe's face, and his expression changed before he suddenly burst out laughing, "Hahaha! I get it! I get it!"
"Second brother, don't scare me, what's wrong?" Sewe felt like she was about to cry, thinking that the shock had driven her brother mad.
"Little sister, just now I finally figured it out. To defend against the lightning strike, besides the static barrier, you can use a small lightning strike to guide it! As long as you catch the rhythm of the opponent's casting, it will work!"
It turned out that just now, the four consecutive lightning strikes had made Seren, in his despair, think of a solution. And after his calculations, this method was highly likely to be effective! Seren had never thought of any other way to avoid the lightning strike besides the static barrier, but the life-or-death situation had given him an epiphany.
"Thank you, little sister! If you hadn't dragged me into the duel, I wouldn't have thought of this. I'll go back and verify it with my classmates. If it works, you'll get the credit!"
Saying this, Seren stood up, brushed off the dirt on his clothes, and left in a hurry. The two girls beside him looked at him with even more admiration.
Sewe was speechless. She could only smile awkwardly, listen to her brother finish speaking, and watch him leave. She really didn't want this credit.
