Chapter 17: Flames and Rain

In the single-player duel level, Andy won the first place as expected, which triggered a round of warm cheers.

But in the following tests, his performance was very ordinary.

Whether it was his understanding of dark monsters or his mastery of eloquence and missionary skills, he was like a rookie.

When it comes to making herbs and holy water, he is completely at a loss and clumsy.

The audience who had been expecting him to continue to create miracles were greatly disappointed.

But when you calm down and think about it, this is normal.

If Andy really knows everything, that would be abnormal.

On the other hand, based on the talents he has shown so far, he is enough to be called a super genius that only appears once in a century.

If he continues to be so powerful, it would inevitably make people wonder, is this child a genius or a monster?

So, despite his mediocre performance in the middle and late stages of the assessment, when the assessment was completely over, the audience still gave their greatest enthusiasm to Andy, the outsider.

The attitude is completely different from the initial scrutiny and indifference!

Then it was time for the judges to review and rank the entries.

This link is very important.

Especially for this assessment, the rules were changed, attracting a large number of elites.

So ranking becomes even more important.

Let’s not talk about the fame that comes with it.

The top three will receive special extraordinary rewards of extremely high value.

The first place winner will be trained by the church of his country and received by the royal family. His future is destined to be smooth sailing! The young people who participated in the assessment therefore looked at Andy with envy.

Indisputable.

No one else can be the first place except Andy! "If Anthony won the first place, I would definitely not accept it."

While waiting for the result, a brown-haired boy said: "But Andy is number one, no one can find fault with him."

The voice of this sentence was neither too loud nor too soft, but it was heard by Andy who was talking to someone not far away.

What’s interesting is that the brown-haired boy who spoke was the one who discussed with others to deal with Andy at the beginning.

"This guy is so fucking shameless!"

In the corner, Anthony's friend cursed for this, but subconsciously lowered his voice.

When he looked at Andy, there was a hint of awe in his eyes.

In the previous game, he had a knight duel with Andy and was crushed.

But outsiders only saw that he was thrown up on horseback by Andy's shot and fell to the ground in a mess, but they didn't understand that he had already been defeated by Andy before that.

He still remembers it clearly now.

The charging silver-armored knight was like a giant dragon ready to devour its prey. The black eyes revealed through the gaps in his visor were full of ferocity and brutality.

Just like an old soldier on the battlefield, he was fighting a life-or-death battle with others! He was so frightened that he was stunned.

This was not because he had no experience or knowledge. On the contrary, he had seen many murderers, had been on the battlefield many times, and had even dissected human bodies with his own hands.

But he was still scared! What was even more terrifying was that after the game, the bloodthirsty murderous aura he felt completely disappeared from Andy.

When communicating with others, the boy smiled shyly and there was no trace of brutality at all.

If you ignore the sick color on its face, it can even be called cute...

He felt a chill down his spine! So when others came forward to greet Andy, he had no intention of doing so, but chose to hide in a corner and "lick his wounds" with his friend Anthony.

Compared to their initial high spirits, the two of them were now much more destitute...

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Anthony beside him with a worried look on his face.

Anthony looked even more miserable at this moment.

He had a dazed and dull expression, and he didn't respond to anything his friends said to him.

All his thoughts seemed to be still on the duel that came to an abrupt end, and he kept muttering to himself.

"I should be able to dodge it."

"I should be able to dodge it."

"Why is this happening?"

"Why so fast?"

"I can't hide?"

"I can't hide..."

"I can't hide!"

Like a schizophrenic.

In fact, Anthony has been like this ever since the showdown with Andy.

Friends can understand his mentality.

As the strongest rising star in his country, Anthony has always been the strongest among his peers.

Apparent humility is nothing more than a habit developed through good family education.

Deep down, Anthony is actually quite arrogant.

However, since the assessment began, he has been hit repeatedly by Andy.

It's fine that my best willpower can't compete with others.

In the duel stage, Anthony was fully prepared and fought with the opponent with the most rigorous mentality, but he was killed so easily...

All the efforts and perseverance from childhood to adulthood seemed like a ceramic vase in front of that person, which would break into pieces at a single blow, becoming worthless like trash! Who could bear such a blow? Anthony did not even attend the subsequent assessments, and sat there motionless.

One can imagine what his ranking will be like next.

However, as the person involved, Anthony didn't pay any attention to that aspect at this time.

My friends didn't pay attention either.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Because he is very worried about Anthony's current condition.

I was afraid that he would not be able to bear the blow and would fall into the trough of life and be unable to get out...

When thinking this way, the young man did not realize at all that fate is actually a very wonderful thing.

When the judges handed the proposed ranking to Bishop Norman, who was in charge of the assessment, and Bishop Norman revised and sent it back, Anthony's name was ranked first! The second place was Sister Lily.

The third one is a stranger to everyone.

The judge in charge of the presentation was stunned when he unveiled the ranking list.

No words were spoken for a long time.

Because he searched the whole list and only saw Andy at the end.

That's the last place.

It means that you are not qualified and will not be admitted...

The presentation judges just stood there, looking bewildered.

The audience, who were originally discussing who would come second and third, gradually realized that something was wrong.

But they never imagined that it would be related to the ranking of the first place.

Because Andy's achievements are unanimously recognized by everyone!

So, when the judges stuttered out that the first place belonged to Anthony, the whole venue suddenly became quiet.

Then, as if a volcano erupted, the pot suddenly exploded!

"Anthony is first? What the hell is this a joke?!"

"Today is not April Fools' Day, right?"

"I heard that Bishop Norman and Father Matthew have a bad relationship, and Andy was brought back by Father Matthew..."

"A dark plot?"

"The inside story!"

“It’s so shameless!”

"Why, God, does your bishop treat us like idiots?"

"What a scum!"

"damn it!"

"Shameless and shady!"

There was a chaotic chaos of shouting and cursing, one after another, which seemed extremely chaotic and filled with general indignation.

Because before this, these extraordinary people who came from all over the country to watch the fun were already looking forward to how much dazzling glory and influence Andy, as one of their own, would bring to their country.

Many people are even considering whether they have girls of the right age who can marry Andy.

However, even with all the expectations, that fat old bishop who was as fat as a pig actually dared to do something shady! ?

This was not only a slander against Andy's extraordinary talent, but also an insult to the intelligence and personality of these bystanders! So everyone cursed! They were obviously not afraid of Bishop Norman. As time passed, the cursing did not stop, but became more and more intense.

The phrase "shameless and shady" stood out from the many messy and dirty words and gradually became a uniform "slogan"! The temple was roaring as if countless thunders were exploding.

Anthony, an innocent person, was also affected by this and was scolded and confused.

Because everyone felt that he took away Andy's first place.

Even if he had not been secretly connected with the Norman Bishop before, he is not a good person!

All in all, things seemed to be getting out of control.

People are very dissatisfied with this confusing result and are eager to overturn it.

But when a cough, not too loud or too light, sounded, the boiling atmosphere was suddenly extinguished as if it had encountered a storm! (End of this chapter)
