Chapter 1374: Contest

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

While sitting there, the Lionheart Prince seriously gave the order. Immediately, most of the mages disappeared from the prairie. Nobody dared to defy the Lionheart Prince, certainly not under such circumstances. Only a dozen mages remained, ranging from level 5 to level 8 of the Heaven Rank.

They were at least Artisans. The three deans of the Starry Sky College, who were all Saint Alchemists, were here. Obviously, capable alchemists were needed at this moment.

A dozen Heaven Rank mages had stayed. Lin Yun was the only one in level 5 of the Heaven Rank. The rest were all at least in level 6 of the Heaven Rank.

The dozen Heaven Rank mages walked to the crystal table in the center, and a level-7 Heaven Rank mage who was next to Lin Yun frowned at him.

Of all the people who stayed here, the most eye-catching people were the four level-9 Heaven Rank experts and Lin Yun, who was in level 5 of the Heaven Rank.

The man wore a robe that seemed to be made of metal, and had a beard that had been carefully trimmed. There was also a hat that was full of gems above his head.

After seeing Lin Yun, he sneered and unleashed his aura, trying to suppress Lin Yun. He wasn’t afraid that anyone else would notice him. Besides, even if they did, they wouldn’t say anything.

If Lin Yun was humiliated here, more people would laugh at him. Whatever they were planning to do next, Lin Yun probably wouldn’t have a chance to participate.

Lin Yun casually glanced at that guy, and found that he didn’t know him. However, the man would’ve definitely left an impression on him with his unique appearance if he had been from the north of the Odin Kingdom, so he had to be from the south.

The fashionable mage’s aura weighed on Lin Yun, but the latter showed no reaction, as if he didn’t feel anything.

When the two level-9 Heaven Rank experts challenged each other, Lin Yun was confident of reaching where the level-7 Heaven Rank experts were standing. This guy’s pressure was not nearly as overwhelming.

He might be no match for the guy in a head-on clash, but the guy certainly couldn’t suppress him just with his aura…

As his Natural Demiplane became more and more powerful, Lin Yun grasped more and more laws. Probably only the four level-9 Heaven Rank experts could possibly suppress him with their aura.

Lin Yun moved forward without a change in his expression, and the fashionable mage seemed rather embarrassed.

Lin Yun didn’t prepare any speech. He was just attending this meeting as an ordinary member, but Agalon suddenly waved at him.

Lin Yun was slightly surprised that Agalon asked him to join him, which carried a deep meaning.

Doing that in front of the other three experts was a clear announcement that he was Lin Yun’s supporter, and they should treat him accordingly.

Lin Yun walked forward, and bowed at Agalon respectfully. Agalon deserved his respect for all his help and advice.

Before Lin Yun said anything, Agalon had spoken to the other three experts.

“He is my disciple, Mafa Merlin. He’s quite talented, especially in alchemy.”

His words were quite simple, but they meant something entirely different to others.

The Lionheart Prince, who had been quite grave, couldn’t help but look at Lin Yun in surprise.

The Great Astrologian, who was famous for being picky, had recruited a disciple? Unbelievable. If Agalon thought he was quite talented, then the man was probably really talented.

Mafa Merlin sounded like a familiar name. It seemed that Agalon had decided on the next leader of the Starry Sky College. It was time to be wary of Mafa Merlin.

The forest elves’ king observed Lin Yun with great interest too, as if he was quite surprised at the matter. But after observing Lin Yun for a while, he seemed to have found something even more shocking, and he gazed at Lin Yun with a complicated expression.

The mage on Agalon’s opposite side, who had strange tattoos on his face, was the most surprised one. With undisguised shock on his face, he laughed in amusement.

“Agalon, you’ve got yourself a disciple? I didn’t know that anyone in Noscent was worthy enough to be your disciple. Have you recruited a disciple because you think you’re dying, and you’re worried that your skills will be lost?”

Agalon glanced at the tattooed mage casually.

“Alonzo, shut up. Nobody will think you’re mute even if you don’t talk.”

Lin Yun had complicated feelings, but it wasn’t outrageous for him to call Agalon teacher. Although they didn’t spend too much time together, Agalon was already a qualified teacher.

By formally introducing him to other people, Agalon was paving the road for him. His vision probably didn’t change at all. He was saving Lin Yun a lot of trouble by introducing him to the top experts.

Lin Yun knew very well that Agalon was already making posthumous arrangements. The formal introduction would attract the top experts’ attention, and save him a lot of trouble.

In the days to come, he wouldn’t be involved in any significant trouble. Whoever came for trouble had to be as important as him. However, if they were as important as him, they would have to consider whether it was worthwhile to offend Agalon, who had never recruited a real disciple in years.

The three saint deans of the Starry Sky College were sort of Agalon’s students, but he never recruited them as disciples, even though they always treated him as their teacher.

The title was very important on many occasions.

After Agalon did this, even if his vision came true in ten years, nobody would dare to do anything too outrageous until they confirmed that he truly perished.

Then, Lin Yun would be given more time. When the top experts were truly greedy about the Starry Sky College, and wanted to claim it, Lin Yun would be able to protect it.

“This is the Lionheart Prince of the Odin Kingdom, the Lionheart Sword Saint in the past. I’m sure you know his feats very well.

“This is the king of forest elves from the boundless forest. I’m sure you’ve heard about him too. He is a wise king.

“As for this guy, he is a jerk named Alonzo. Just ignore him.”

Agalon introduced the other three people to Lin Yun, and Lin Yun paid his respects. He was slightly surprised.

He had recognized the Lionheart Prince and the forest elves’ king easily, but not Alonzo.

Alonzo was certainly not an ordinary person.

Technically speaking, Alonzo was Agalon’s junior brother. They had studied alchemy together, and had been opponents throughout their life.

However, the relationship between them was quite complicated. Nobody could tell what it was about. They might be old nemeses, but they never tried to kill each other. They only fought each other to show that they were better than their opponent.

After Agalon took control of the Starry Sky College, Alonzo established the Arcane College in the south of Odin.

Agalon was an orthodox alchemist that had been studying normal alchemy, but Alonzo was different. Alonzo was a pure genius who believed that magic tools shouldn’t just improve a spell’s power and a mage’s combat ability.

Alonzo intended to create independent magic tools that carried their own power, not just regular magic tools that depended on mages themselves.
