The female ghost blinked. Her eyes were big and watery. Suddenly, her expression changed, and she pounced on Vincent fiercely.
Vincent was shocked by the female ghost’s sudden attack. Even though he knew that it was just an act, he was still shocked.
However, no matter how he looked at her, her fierceness was still a little cute.
“Hey, hey, hey! Wait! Wait! Well, we’ve fought side by side before, but I still don’t know your name,” said Vincent in a low voice. He then turned around and started running.
The female ghost did not expect Vincent to ask her such a question. She was stunned for a moment.
“Lisa,” answered the female ghost.
Vincent nodded and left without a trace. He ran even faster whilst shouting, “Help!”
His voice was extremely loud. It overpowered the sounds of the battle between the Beast Race and the Ghost Race. It even gave both sides a huge fright.
The cry sounded miserable. Those who heard it were heartbroken and wept. They could not help but turn their heads to look at where the sound was coming from.
“Eh? Vincent! Didn’t he have a good relationship with that female ghost? Why was he still being pursued by her?”
“Vincent! Stop right there! Time is almost up! I have not completed my mission! Let me kill you!” shouted Lisa.
Lisa recalled Vincent’s instructions and let out a sharp howl. However, her face was a little flushed. The other ghosts felt a little awkward after hearing her howl.
“Oh! So, it was for the mission!”
The beasts and ghosts had a sudden realization. As the qualifying round was almost ending, it made sense for them to turn against each other for the mission.
Both sides thought of their own missions. They decided to ignore Vincent and Lisa and started fighting again.
Neither of them noticed that some beasts and ghosts had been killed for no reason.
After running for a long time, Vincent and Lisa hid and smiled at each other.
The battle between the beasts and ghosts continued until night fell. Only then did they separate due to an unknown force. They then disappeared one after another and soon left the Obsidian Dimensional World.
Vincent and Lisa disappeared as well. Before they left, neither of them said anything.
Vincent could feel a white light flashing but he could not see anything. By the time he regained his sight, he was back in Blizzard School.
The teachers and the principal all had solemn expressions. However, everyone could see the happiness in the teachers’ eyes.
Of course, none of the students knew what the teachers were laughing about.
The rankings were announced. As Vincent had completed his own mission and the Tricolor Lion Brothers’ missions, it was undisputed that he was number one. The qualifying competition then ended.
A new student won the qualifying competition. This had never happened in the history of Blizzard School. Everyone looked at Vincent. They were shocked.
In their opinion, it was already very good that Vincent had not been killed by Lisa. How could he still complete the mission? This was too amazing.
The older students felt ashamed, but they had to admit that Vincent was powerful.
He could live peacefully with a level seven ghost and escape her too.
This was not something that ordinary people could do. The other students knew that they could not do it.
The principal proceeded to say words of encouragement and dismissed them.
Everyone who was tired after the two days and one night all returned to the dormitory to rest. Only Vincent stayed behind as he was called away by the principal.
Although Vincent felt that it was strange, he did not think too much about it. He just followed behind Edmund into the ancient records room. Edmund was the deer-headed teacher in Vincent’s class.
This was already Vincent’s second time going to the ancient records room, so it was not that strange. On the contrary, he was more curious about the reason Edmund brought him there.
Could it be that he had performed well, and they wanted to reward him with some combat skills?
It did not seem like it!
Vincent shook his head slightly. He was on guard.
The main reason was that Edmund did not speak to Vincent at all. He even had a serious expression on his face. Vincent would not believe it at all if he was told that nothing was going on.
As expected, Edmund brought Vincent to the back of the ancient records room and knocked on the wall a few times with his right hand. It was very rhythmic.
“Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock!”
This seemed to be some sort of secret signal…
Vincent was focused. He made sure that he was in his best condition.
Could it be that he had been exposed?
Vincent was somewhat uncertain.
He recalled everything that had happened since he arrived at Blizzard School. There had not been any strange actions.
After racking his brains, he still could not understand how he had been exposed.
Of course, he was only guessing. As for whether he had been discovered, it still depended on what happened next.
Nevertheless, he was already prepared. If there was the slightest bit of abnormality, he would leave immediately.
“Come in,” said Edward. He smiled and waved at Vincent.
At that moment, the wall split apart. Behind the wall was a pitch-black tunnel that led downstairs.
Edward was standing at the entrance of the tunnel. He looked strange.
Vincent did not enter rashly. Who knew what was going on inside? If his identity was exposed, it would be even more difficult for him to leave.
“This is the secret research base of our Blizzard School. The main reason I called you here is to find out how you learned fire elemental battle techniques. If it can be popularized, the combat power of our Beast Race will be greatly enhanced,” explained Edmund.
Edmund could tell that Vincent was hesitating to enter. He then explained his reason for calling him.
Vincent looked at Edmund and the tunnel behind him. After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, he finally stepped into the tunnel.
He had also prepared a large number of World Cleansing Fire Seeds in the ancient records room without anybody knowing. As he went deeper into the tunnel, he continued to plant them.
These seeds will ensure his safety and his chance to escape.
After walking for more than twenty minutes, he finally arrived in front of a huge stone door. Edmund walked forward and knocked on it. The rhythm was similar to before, but it was still different.
The stone door opened. Edmund stood outside and turned to Vincent.
“Go in, I’ll wait for you here,” said Edmund.
Vincent nodded and walked in.
He had already gone so far. He could no longer back down.
The moment Vincent entered the room, the stone door closed behind him with a loud bang.
Vincent did not pay any attention to it. At that moment, Vincent was shocked by what he saw.
It was a circular hall. Vincent saw numerous instruments that clearly did not belong to the primitive race of the Beast World. They were all placed in an orderly fashion.
The beasts were operating the instruments one by one in a serious manner.
“You must be Vincent. Nice to meet you. My name is Ronald,” said a husky kobold. He stood beside Vincent and smiled.
Vincent looked at Ronald’s head. His mind was filled with the legends about huskies in the human world.
Ronald was puzzled when he saw Vincent looking at him in a daze.
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?” asked Ronald.
Vincent shook his head quickly and said, “Well, Teacher Ronald, why did you call me here?”
Ronald spread his hands and said, “I want to test you. After all, you are the first person in the history of the Beast Race to successfully practice fire elemental battle techniques.”
“Let’s go. We’ll test your blood first,” said Ronald.
As he spoke, he brought Vincent to a bear-headed lady who did not look much older than Vincent.
