The Devil Without Pardon
Ch 29: Betting

The next day in the academy's cafeteria, it looked as if Chun Yang and Zao Hu were having breakfast at the same table.

"Prince.." call Zao Hu.

Chun Yang, who was eating at the time, then raised his eyes and looked towards Zao Hu who was sitting before him.

Zao Hu then continued his sentence.

"Are you not curious about the first wave group match?" ask Zao Hu.

"Of course curious. But we're forbidden to watch, aren't we?" said Chun Yang.

Due to a rule, those on the second wave match schedule were forbidden to watch the first wave match schedule.

If there was one member of a group who was secretly watching, then all the members of the group would be instantly eliminated.

Therefore, currently on the field there is not a single spectator who came from the second wave.

After finishing his breakfast, Chun Yang then got up from his seat.

"Zao Hu, after this will you practice a match with me?" ask Chun Yang.

Meanwhile on the field, the first wave group match was finally held.

Each of each group conducts a draw once again to determine their opponent.

In the draw box, there are 56 balls according to the number of groups that exist.56 balls are then divided into two parts with the same number.

For the group that gets the same lottery number, it will be the opponent in the match.

Once the draw is complete, each group has determined its opponent.

Of the entire one wave group matches, the most eye-catching thing was of course the group matches chaired by the heirs of the eight Main Sects.

On top of the altar, appeared the Right Guard who would be the overseer in the match.

"All right! Is everything done choosing?" ask the Right Guard to those in the field.

"YONG!!"

"Good! Now the sequence of matches one through four get ready on the field to compete!" the Right Guard.

"YONG!!"

Then the sequence of matches one to four prepare on the field to compete.

The order of the match is :

First Order: Group 34 against Group 23.

Second Order: Group 19 against Group 28.

Third Order: Group 1 against Group 40.

And the Fourth Order: Group 46 against Group 81.

Looking at the order of the third match, the Right Guard opened his eyes wide while holding his beard.

"Oohs... It was only the first match, but there was already one heir from the Main Sect who was competing. Looks like it'll be an interesting start!" thought the Right Guard in his mind.

On the field, there appeared a group of 1 led by Chun Li of the Magic Sect.

Before starting the match, the Right Guard first explained the rules of the match.

"The group that dominates their opponents, they win. Now it's... Get started!" exclaiming Right Guard started the match.

Then on the field, the eight groups began to battle with all sorts of formations.

But among the eight groups, the group that attracted the most attention was Group 1 which was competing against Group 40.

Group 1 used the Arrow Formation to concentrate power on the vanguard, while group 40 used the shield formation to concentrate power on defense.

Then clashes and battles took place between the two groups.

"Groan!"

"Defend! Raise your shields!"

The sword clashed against the shield, the two groups attacked each other and pushed.

"Defend! Maintain position!" shouted the Head of Group 40 to his group.

Thinking that the battle will be fierce because the opponent is a person who also cannot be underestimated, but unfortunately the battle was only short-lived. Group 1 easily dominated and defeated his opponent.

"You lost! Surrender you!" chun Li said to the injured Group of 40 Chief and kneeled before him.

"We... Surrender.." said the Group of 40 Chairman by lowering his head.

The Right Guard who saw the match end just like that then muttered.

"End up quickly. I thought it would be a little interesting, but it ended up boring!" muttered Right Guard.

"What about the other group matches?" The curious Right Guard then turned to where the other group was competing.

Seeing that the battle had ended, as well as the other six groups, the Right Guard immediately announced the winner.

"The winners of this match are Group 23, Group 28, Group 1, and Group 81!"

"The group that has finished competing immediately leave the field!" the Right Guard.

Then the group that had finished the match immediately left the field as instructed.

When they leave the field, for the winning group it is a sense of pride and excitement, while for the losing group it is a sense of shame and sadness.

"Now let's move on to the next game!" exclaim Right Guard.

Meanwhile in the Dormitory Building, a woman who was walking in a state of anger.

Filled with anger, the woman then opened and kicked through the door of the group seven dormitory.

"BRAAKK!!"

The sound of the door slam immediately shocked those inside the dormitory. Even Chun Zagang who was lying on his bed, until he was hit by the book he was reading.

"You guys... Why are you guys even relaxing here!?" ask the woman with anger.

That woman was Lu Yunxiang, the Group 7 Instructor.

Looking at the sudden arrival of Instructor Lu Yunxiang, they only turned their heads for a moment and then ignored him.

"....Ignored?"

Lu Yunxiang's guide was astonished to see himself being ignored by them. He then felt very angry, annoyed and irritated.

"(These bastards.) Don't you want to prepare for tomorrow's match? Tomorrow you have a match. If you don't want to lose, then don't laze around here and go out to practice!" said Instructor Lu Yunxiang.

When he was silent, Chun Zagang closed the book and spoke.

"Supervisor Lu, this is the male dorm room. You suddenly came in and slammed the door, it was really an impolite act!" said Chun Zagang reprimanding him.

"What!?" Guides Lu gasped at hearing that.

Then Chun Zagang put down his book, he stood up and continued to talk

"Then, we are resting to prepare for tomorrow's game. If we train and get tired, then tomorrow we won't be able to play well."

"Also, why do you think, that Group 7 will lose? Don't you trust the students you've trained?" chun Zagang.

Instructor Lu Yunxiang looked towards Chun Zagang. He knew who Chun Zagang's identity was, he was the Heir of the Spear Sect. But his attitude really became a problem, Chun Zagang easily underestimated something and was careless.

"Murid number 7, I know you are from the Spear Sect, one of the Main Sect. Even if you fail this test, you will only return and inherit your sect."

"But, what about the other members of the group of seven? Unlike you, there are those who are from the Intermediate or even Low Level Sects. If they fail this test, then their fate will be different from yours."

"As Group Leader, you should be aware of how important this exam is to your group members. You should lead them to prepare for tomorrow's game well, not even laze around here with them. You are responsible for the success and failure of this group!" said Instructor Lu Yunxiang.

At that moment, Chun Zagang then smiled. He walked up to Instructor Lu Yunxiang and stood right before him.

"It seems you feel that if we don't train then we will lose, but I believe in them. Tell you what, since you feel that we won't be able to win tomorrow's game, how about we bet?" chun Zagang.

"bet?" Instructor Lu Yunxiang flinched hearing that.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
