Chapter 217 Kneeling down to apologize
“Pah pah pah——”
The magicians in the audience stood up, applauded enthusiastically and cheered for the wonderful game.
"This is the most impressive match I've ever seen between magic apprentices."
"Although Sperian is a mid-level magic apprentice, his elemental affinity is unparalleled."
"He has mastered wind, fire, wood, water, and light magic to its fullest potential, unleashing its full power."
"And the timing of his spells is always perfect."
“Even if there is no opportunity, you must create opportunities for yourself.”
"He has a very strong fighting spirit, completely different from a greenhouse-raised flower like Lu Weixi."
"It's a shame for Lu Weixi. He has great talent, but unfortunately he has a bad temper and has missed many opportunities to fight back."
"No matter how good the equipment is, it is not as good as rich practical experience."
"Haha, Sperian, grow up quickly! I can't wait to have a match with him."
"Come on, you're over a hundred years old, and the kid is only eighteen. Don't bully the weak!"
"I can foresee how terrible the look on the face of the Fritton Saint is."
"Shh-"
Lu Weixi only felt a noisy sound in his ears, as if countless bees were buzzing non-stop, which gave him a splitting headache.
He struggled to get up from the ground, but he couldn't move, and every part of his body was screaming in pain.
The guy who hurt him was now standing in front of him with a smug look on his face, looking down at him with an extremely dazzling smile on his face, his mouth opening and closing.
What is he talking about?
Lu Weixi shook his head to clear his mind. The fear caused by the fire dragon had not yet dissipated, and his limbs trembled involuntarily.
After Shu Li finished asking the question, he waited patiently for Lu Wei's response. After waiting for a long time, the other party was stunned and did not express anything.
What's going on? Are you scared?
Shu Li scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and looked up at Danlov in the referee's seat.
Now, is it the referee's turn to come on stage?
Danlov received his pleading look, and his figure flashed and teleported to the stadium. There were four people following him, namely Fritton, Elio, Zephir, and Principal Gabriel.
Seeing the Lord God of Law come out, the audience sat down quietly, waiting for the referee to announce the result of the game.
Fritton frowned as he looked at Luvish lying motionless on the ground.
Ilio winked at Shu Li and received a cute smile from the little elf.
Danlov walked up to Lu Weixi, half-knelt down, and asked gently: "Child, are you okay?"
His voice had a soothing effect, eliminating the fear of death in Luvitch's heart, and his empty eyes gradually gathered light.
Lu Weixi came back to his senses, his body shook, and he looked at Danlov in panic.
Seeing that he had regained consciousness, Danlov asked again: "Lu Weixi, do you want to continue the game or give up?"
"Competition? Give up?" Lu Weixi murmured. Thinking that the loser of the game would have to kneel down and apologize to the winner, he struggled to stand up.
"No! I won't give up! I can still fight!"
He held his body up halfway, but couldn't bear the pain and fell back. He was so anxious that sweat broke out. He got up three times and fell back to the ground three times. The last time, he couldn't even hold himself up.
"Lu Weixi, give up!" Fritton closed his eyes reluctantly, "You lose."
Hearing the familiar voice, Lu Weixi looked up with joy and looked at Fritton eagerly. "Uncle, please help me! As long as you help me, I can get up and fight again! I didn't lose! I really didn't lose!"
He had defense scrolls, magic shields, and flight scrolls specially given to him by his uncle, so how could he lose the game?
Impossible! Impossible! Impossible!
He couldn't accept the fact and muttered to himself.
Danlov sighed softly, stood up, and said to Fritton, "To become an excellent magician, you must first have a strong heart. If you can't even accept failure, then you should consider changing your career."
Fritton, understanding the hidden meaning behind the Lord God of Law's words, bowed stiffly. "Please forgive me, Lord God of Law. It is my fault for not teaching him well enough, and I have allowed Lu Weixi to develop such a proud character."
Danlov said, "I declare him the loser. Do you have any objection?"
Fritton hid the resentment in his eyes and said, "No."
"Then..." Danlov walked over to Shu Li, shook his hand, and raised it high. "I declare that the winner of this match is—Sperien from the Sesis Mountains!"
“Pah pah pah!”
Ilio and Zephir clapped with smiles on their faces.
The audience cheered again.
Shu Li smiled happily, his gray-green eyes filled with joy. He turned to look at his friends sitting in the front row of the audience.
His friends waved to him excitedly. Dixio jumped onto the court impatiently, ran over, hugged Shu Li, and rubbed her hard.
"Sperian, you're amazing!"
Shu Li's cheek was hurt by his rubbing, and she wanted to push him away. Angel and Budno rushed over and joined in the rubbing.
"Yeah yeah yeah! We won!"
"I knew Sperian was the best!"
Shu Li was helplessly rubbed against by his friends.
There's no way around it. The little goblins grew up together and are as close as brothers. They love to hug and rub each other when they encounter happy things.
Once they have had enough, they will naturally let go.
Seeing this, Ilio's fingers itched and he stepped forward to stroke each of the goblins.
"Ahh~" Disio let go of Shu Li, covered his messed hair, and glared at Ilio with resentment.
Ilio gave a slapping smile.
Siti, who was standing nearby, said enviously, "They have such a good relationship."
"Yeah." Nasha nodded. During the days they were together, she had discovered that Amo and his little friend had a very good relationship, almost like brothers.
Shu Li finally regained his freedom, straightened his magic robe, and looked at Ace who was walking towards him.
Ace smiled, "Congratulations, and thank you for your hard work."
"Hey, it's not hard, not at all." Shu Li said with a smile, "I gained a lot from this competition."
Absorb elemental power more accurately, maintain the level of an intermediate magic apprentice, grasp the rhythm of the battle, and create attack opportunities for yourself under limited conditions.
It can be said that Lu Weixi served as a philosopher's stone for him.
Hector felt complicated as he looked at Lu Weixi lying on the ground in a mess.
This magical genius, who had been carefully nurtured since childhood, unexpectedly suffered a setback one day. For someone as proud as him, it must be difficult to accept the fact that he suddenly fell from such a high position, right?
Just like himself three years ago, after his father passed away, he was deprived of his qualification as the lord's heir, and his status plummeted. He went from being a young master who was the focus of everyone's attention to a poor man who was ostracized by his relatives.
He was unwilling to give in, he shouted and made a fuss, but in the end he had to keep quiet.
Before he gained great power, he was useless and no one would listen to his inner pain. He could only fight for his rights through his own ability.
He was very glad that he woke up early and was not like Lu Weixi, who was spoiled by his elders and could not accept the result of failure.
Fritton squatted beside Luvish and cast light healing magic to eliminate the pain in his body.
He had just checked carefully and found that Lu Weixi had only flesh wounds, his bones were intact. The reason he couldn't get up was completely because he was frightened by the last fire dragon. Fear took over his heart and made him lose the courage to fight.
As the Lord God of Magic said, if you want to be an excellent magician, you must have a strong heart.
Fritton protects his own people, but that doesn't mean he will protect a cowardly junior.
As the pain in his body disappeared, Lu Weixi's body finally regained consciousness and his mind became clear. Hearing the cheers around him, he became scared.
"Uncle, I..."
The proud head can never be lowered no matter what.
Ask him to kneel down and apologize to the untouchables, he can't do it!
Shu Li and his friends celebrated the end and stood in a row in front of Lu Weixi.
"I win, you lose." He stated the facts and waited for the loser to apologize to them.
Lu Weixi stood up and stared unwillingly. When he saw Hector, he felt a surge of resistance in his heart and said instinctively: "You want me to apologize? Dream on!"
He will not apologize, and will never apologize to people who are not as good as him!
"Wow, you can't afford to lose!" Siti exclaimed in surprise. "With the principal as a witness and the God of Magic as the referee, in front of so many magicians, you're actually going to go back on your word?"
"I despise people who go back on their word the most." Nasha said disdainfully.
"You don't even have the most basic integrity. Who would dare to be friends with you in the future?" Budno made a face at him.
"Those three lackeys are probably regretting their actions now, aren't they?" Desio craned his neck to search the audience for them. Unfortunately, there were too many people, so he couldn't see where they were sitting.
"Shut up!" Lu Weixi was furious, his eyes vicious.
Shu Li shook his head and sighed. He really didn't know how to judge the situation. He was so arrogant in front of the God of Law.
“Snap—”
Suddenly, a loud slap startled everyone in the arena.
Lu Weixi covered his cheeks, opened his eyes wide, and looked at Fritton with an expressionless face in disbelief.
He was beaten by... his uncle?
Fritton put down his hand and said indifferently: "If you lose, you lose. Show the backbone of the Snowwo family and apologize to them."
Lu Weixi's pupils contracted and he remained silent for a long time.
Fritton turned around, saluted Danloff, and left the field with a sullen face.
Looking at his uncle's receding back, Lu Weixi finally became scared.
He had let his uncle down! He was going to be abandoned by his uncle! He was going to lose everything...
"Bang!"
He bent his knees and knelt heavily on the ground. He clenched his fists, lowered his head with difficulty, bent his spine, and said painfully: "I, Luvisi Snowo, apologize to you for what I did this morning. Please forgive my offense!"
His forehead was pressed against the ground, his eyes were bloodshot, and sweat and tears mixed together and dripped down.
The arena was silent.
After looking at his teammates, Shu Li accepted his apology.
"We forgive you. We hope you will behave yourself in the future and stop bullying others." Shu Li said.
Lu Weixi gritted his teeth, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably. After a long pause, he managed a few words: "Thank you for your... magnanimity."
Shu Li said: "Okay, you can get up now."
However, Lu Weixi seemed not to hear his words and continued to kneel and kowtow without any reaction.
Shu Li shrugged his shoulders, said nothing more, and thanked Danlov with his teammates.
The game ended and the magicians left the bustling arena one after another.
Morrissey stretched, put his arm around Sadler's shoulders, and whispered in his ear, "Today's game was fun. If there's a similar event next time, remember to invite me."
Sadler pushed him away mercilessly. "Don't do it again."
Bringing him to the magic academy this time has already been an exception, but you are still thinking about next time?
Morrissey touched his nose and followed him out.
The God of Magic and the Saints of Magic were busy with their work. After seeing Lu Weixi apologize, they teleported back to the Magic Tower.
Shu Li and the others were in a hurry to complete their mission, so they said goodbye to Ilio and ran away.
"I...why are we running so fast?" Siti asked while panting.
"Because if I don't run faster, I'll be... bald." Amanda replied.
He had only been in Elfland for a few days when he was deeply affected. Once, he fell into Ilio's trap and foolishly transformed back into dragon form. Ilio almost plucked out all the scales on his body, which frightened him so much that he dared not leave the room for several days.
"Bal...bald?" Hector couldn't help but touch his hair. "Is it that serious?"
The five little goblins nodded heavily.
Seeing Kumandi nodded, the others quickened their pace, but Ace had a hint of a smile in his green eyes.
Ilio looked at the fleeing little guys, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Is he that scary?
Zephir spread his hands. Some elves have no self-awareness.
"Ilio, what are your plans for the future?" Principal Gabriel asked Ilio.
"Of course—" Ilio replied with a smile, "I'll stay here to take care of the children."
Gabriel was pleasantly surprised and said, "That's great! Welcome back!"
All the magicians taught by Ilio have achieved great success. Now they are all great wizards, active in various countries on the continent, serving the Lord God of Magic.
After an unknown amount of time, the arena returned to its quiet state, with no one in the audience seats except Lu Weixi kneeling on the field.
The principal and his tutor had advised him, but he remained unmoved.
Unable to persuade him, everyone had to leave, leaving him alone here to calm down.
Lu Weixi seemed like a statue, with his forehead pressed against the ground, his eyes unblinking, and tear marks on his face.
"Da, da, da!"
Footsteps suddenly sounded, someone approached him and stopped half a meter away from him.
Lu Weixi's eyes flashed.
"stand up."
The man said lightly.
Lu Weixi had a blank expression and did not move.
"If you still feel unwilling, then stand up and use your magic wand to prove your strength." said the man.
"Prove... my strength?" Lu Weixi said hoarsely, supporting himself on the ground with both hands. He slowly raised his head and glared hatefully at the magic swordsman standing before him. "It was you who trampled on me, trampled on my dignity, made me embarrass myself in public, and even made my uncle abandon me..."
Seleu asked, "Have you not realized your mistake yet?"
Lu Weixi shouted hoarsely: "You forced me to do this!"
Seleu kicked him without warning, knocking him to the ground.
Lu Weixi was stunned.
Seryu lowered his head and glared at him coldly: "Get up."
Luvisi subconsciously obeyed his order and climbed up tremblingly. Before he could stand firmly, he was attacked by Seleu again.
"Bang--"
He fell to the ground and rolled several times before coming to a stop.
Seleu walked over slowly, his shoe touching his cheek. "Get up."
Lu Weixi gnashed his teeth and struggled to get up, supporting his body on all fours.
"Bang!"
The third time, he was kicked to the ground by Seleu, and the pain made him groan.
"stand up."
Seleu repeated this command like a ruthless ice sculpture.
"Madman!" Luvish cursed while panting, "You madman!"
After being kicked three times by Seleu, his body, which had finally been healed by Fritton, was in unbearable pain again. Lu Weixi lay on the ground, cursing loudly.
Seleu strode forward and stepped on his back.
“Hmm—”
Lu Weixi's whole body was pressed to the ground, and his back felt like it was being pressed down by a huge rock weighing a thousand pounds. His spine was about to break, and he was in so much pain that he couldn't say anything and could only breathe heavily.
Seryu said calmly, "This is what it means to step on you and trample on your dignity."
Luvitch turned pale.
"You violated the academy rules. The correct punishment is three days of detention. But you lied to your great uncle, making him mistakenly believe that you were being bullied, and then you went to the principal to seek justice."
"Even though he knew the fault was yours, your great uncle persisted in his decision to save face and even tried to protect you. Unfortunately, things went against his will. The appearance of Saint Ilios changed the situation."
"He gave you a fair and square fight."
"Unfortunately, despite having so many treasures, you still lost the game, which greatly disappointed your great uncle."
As Lu Weixi listened to his words, his eyes gradually dimmed.
Seryu lowered his voice and questioned him: "Luvisi, do you still think you are right now?"
Lu Weixi opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.
Seleu moved the foot that was stepping on his back away, took out a bottle of potion from the storage ring, put it on the ground, and turned to leave.
After a long time, Lu Weixi propped himself up and saw the medicine on the ground. He wanted to wave his hand to knock it over. When his palm was about to touch the bottle, he suddenly stopped, hesitated for a moment, and held it tightly.
Five minutes later, he limped out of the arena.
"call--"
Ten heads popped out from the audience seats. They were none other than the Light Team that had gone off to complete the mission.
When they arrived at the college gate, they learned that they could only leave the school once a day and had to give up the mission.
Hector said he wanted to go see if Luvitch was still kneeling on the field, so the others followed him.
However, when they arrived, they found Seleu kicking Luvisi mercilessly.
The Light Team immediately concealed their presence and quietly hid behind the seats in the audience, watching the entire process. Seeing Lu Weixi being kicked down again and again, they began to sympathize with him.
"Seriu, you are worthy of being the school's discipline."
Shu Li was deeply moved.
