Chapter 186: Ranch's state today was also very good
idn't seem to have anticipated Talya's increasingly negative attitude toward him.But he didn't mind, because he brought something Talia would definitely like.I'm here to pay my tuition.Lan Qi's mouth...Chapter 187: Ranch's state today is also very good.
The seven-story atrium, with its transparent dome skylight, allowed sunlight to stream in. The silky soft light danced with the faint shadows in the air. Outside, the increasingly gloomy sky seemed almost inevitable, even as thunder rumbled in the distance.
Lanchi still held the little black cat, walking with ease towards the courtyard.
Indoor greenery flanks the space, with artistic decor and scattered reliefs blending seamlessly with the surroundings. This adds a touch of cultural ambiance to the tranquil top floor of this building.
Although Lance is a freshman, he has been here several times already. To enter the artificial shadow world, one must go to the seventh floor of the learning and education building where the artificial shadow world activation terminal is located at the Ictheere Academy.
The outside was overcast, but as you walked into the courtyard, the lights grew brighter, making everything feel more peaceful and comfortable.
"Lan Chi, you're such a good person, meow!"
The cat boss lay on Lanchi's hand, flipping over with an exceptionally happy and contented look.
At the Iketerite Academy, not only was it lively, but there were also stories of matchmaking, which she loved best!
Next, all Lance needs to do is win his bet against Adams fairly and squarely, and he'll successfully set up a perfect date for Lauren and Juliana!
This young boy observed that so far, the cat boss was going to give him a score of 100.
The cat boss was becoming more and more satisfied with Lanchi, and felt he and Tata were a perfect match.
A cool and intellectual older sister, a gentle and smart handsome young boy, wow, I can't wait to see the sparks between the two of them!
Just thinking about it, the little black cat was almost twisting into a ball of fur.
"Right No one is more caring than me."
Randy proudly held out his hand and high-fived the cat.
Although he has always been discreet about his good deeds, never seeking recognition or reward, hearing praise still brings a sense of joy to his heart and motivates him to continue accumulating virtue.
Then today, I must definitely show the cat boss something amazing.
Passing around the marble balustrade, he entered the world of artificial shadows, and all eyes were on him.
Most prominent was Teacher Teresa, holding a tablet-like magic device, guiding the workflow before the terminal was activated in the artificial shadow world.
All the seniors who were originally at the meeting room on the top floor of the Sage's Academy have now gathered in the courtyard waiting.
You can also see the scenes from the Shadow World on the magical giant screen in the courtyard right away.
When Teresa was in charge of the entrance examination for Ranch,
Now she stood once again before Rani. Teacher Teresa no longer smiled so gently, but her expression was filled with tension and gravity.
The warning sign that had been added to the magical device behind her, “[STRICTLY PROHIBITED TO FORCE RESTART]”, was still there.
And the third round of the exam, the examiner Ferlat being carried away on a stretcher, Teresa also remembers it vividly.
"Lance, are you sure you can beat Adams"
Theresa asked nervously.
No matter what, she still hopes that Lance will win.
"I'll do my best, don't worry."
Lance nodded and replied.
"…"
After hearing that, Teresa felt somewhat reassured.
Although every time Lynch faced danger or trouble, she was just as clueless as the other teachers about how Lynch could win.
But after looking at it for a long time, they always had a feeling about it.
If Lan Chi is this composed, then he must be confident. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made this preemptive strike.
What if I lose
Theresa couldn't imagine how Lance would convince Lauren to apologize.
If Lord Loren could handle his own hell, he would have already gone to Julieana and cleared the air.
As for matters of the heart, Dean Lorenz's situation is much like that music room of Lance's - a dead end, unable to be broken or escaped. One more glance and it would explode.
It didn't take long.
In the direction of the courtyard's gate, Adams arrived as promised.
Under the light, Adam's form was like a brand new blade, piercing through the confined space.
He no longer restrains his powerful aura.
He walked toward Lance, his steps steady and powerful.
"Ranch, are you ready"
Adam's voice echoed throughout the space, his eyes blazing, fixed on Lance as if his sole purpose in this trip was to ensure Lance conceded defeat wholeheartedly!
"Well, let's get started."
Lancy nodded and looked towards the terminal for activating the artificial shadow world.
"Come on, Ranchi! This is a showdown that determines the fate of Dean Lauren!"
"We, the Sage's Academy, are counting on you to bring us glory!"
Accompanied by shouts from the senior students of Xianzhai.
There wasn't much time for communication.
Follow the regular procedure.
Lance and Adams were quickly brought to the Void Gate by Teresa.
"You may begin now."
Theresa’s voice was tense as she used the key to open the terminal.
Before the artificial world could be activated, a void gate appeared before the two of them, displaying a countdown.
The challenger must enter before the preparation time ends.
The adept challengers, Lynch and Adams, said little, stepping through the void portal.
The seven-story atrium suddenly fell silent, as if all sound had been blocked.
All eyes were fixed on the magical screen.
The canvas flickered with dazzling brilliance, a tunnel of another dimension like time and space opened, then plunged into darkness for a moment.
When it flickered back on, the live broadcast of Ranch vs. Adams' shadow world duel began!
Meanwhile, at the Gerald R. Ford Plaza.
It's raining lightly now, and many students are wearing raincoats and holding umbrellas, standing on the steps watching the competition.
A prison cell scene was displayed on the open-air screen.
And Lanchi stood inside the cell.
"I've always felt that Lance would suit a pure jailbreak aesthetic."
"You wouldn't say it, but if Principal Lan wasn't wearing handcuffs, I wouldn't know if he was the prisoner or the warden."
Even though Lan Qi was in prison, dressed in a prisoner's uniform, the gentle and composed aura still emanated from him.
However.
On the edge of the square, what was seen by an Alolan Kingdom student's eye was quite different.
"......"
In the principal's office of the demon academy, a world that haunted her psychologically, there was a glowing demon who looked exactly the same.
But appearance is not the most important thing.
But that aura, that faint smile, even if he disguised himself as a human, she would never mistake him!
The moment the Glowing Demon appeared on the massive outdoor screen, their gazes met across dimensions, making the air around her plaza seem to chill several degrees.
Her nearly fried brain finally started working again, looking around with the air of someone drowning searching for a life raft.
But for some reason, the brother who was just beside me had vanished without a trace at this moment.
What's wrong with you
Her classmates from the Aloran Royal Academy beside her noticed something was amiss and began to call out to her with concern.
She wanted to speak, to shout, to scream for help, but she couldn't control her voice. Her vision began to swim, the sounds around her a chaotic buzz, punctuated by the occasional mention of "the Headmaster" from students of the Icteri Institute.
No matter which direction she looked, the shimmering devil's figure on the big and small screens all over the campus surrounded her like a kaleidoscope.
Is this a dream
Reality or illusion
Why would the radiant demon from her nightmares appear in the real world
And where had her only confidant, the brother who had always been by her side at the Purgatory Hall Academy, gone
As a thunderclap roared across the sky, her soft legs lost all feeling and she suddenly collapsed onto the steps of Gerald Memorial Square!
(The End)
