Bab 377: Chapter 377: Are You the Sword Master of Tempest?
...
In recent days, the Martial Spirit City had become bustling with activity. The teams that advanced to the final round of the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament from the two empires arrived at this magnificent city to prepare for the decisive battle.
With a few days left before the start of the tournament, Hu Liena had become exceptionally busy. She spent most of her time at the Martial Spirit Academy, training with her team to maintain their peak state and prepare for the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament.
Originally, with her absolute confidence in her strength and the team's strength, Hu Liena would never have paid much attention to the other participating teams, let alone train so seriously. It would have made her appear lacking confidence in her Spirit Hall Team.
Perhaps it was due to being constantly with Zeng Yi lately, Hu Liena had also been influenced and had some changes in her thinking.
Even Zeng Yi, with such great strength himself, said that the participating teams in this tournament were not simple. Although he did not participate in this tournament, he easily defeated me! Therefore, Hu Liena trusted Zeng Yi's words.
Regardless, their Spirit Hall Team had the home advantage!
In front of their teachers and Zeng Yi, if they couldn't win each match in a splendid manner, it would truly be embarrassing.
Therefore, Hu Liena had been particularly diligent these days, to the extent that she didn't even have time to find Zeng Yi.
However, for Zeng Yi, it was actually a good thing. Without Hu Liena's entanglement, he felt much more relaxed.
Because he had become acquainted with Hu Liena, Zeng Yi was not a stranger to the Martial Spirit Hall. The guards at the gates of the Martial Spirit Hall knew that he had a close relationship with their Holy Saintess.
So, Zeng Yi easily mingled among the Martial Spirit Hall and came to the Martial Spirit City.
Walking on the bustling streets filled with carriages and horses, Zeng Yi looked at the scene. There were more young men and women wearing academy uniforms on the streets.
These should be the teams from the two empires' qualifying rounds, and they had already arrived in this city.
So, would he have a chance to meet those people from Shrek?
Zeng Yi pondered as he walked.
However, whether he met them or not was not important. What mattered was his own life changing event.
Zeng Yi had finally managed to slip away alone, so naturally, he wanted to see if there was a chance to leave the city.
With the increase of people entering and leaving the city due to the participating teams, it was possible that the city's defense had relaxed.
But reality proved that Zeng Yi had overestimated. Because of the Spirit Master Tournament being held in the Martial Spirit City, the defense and inspections at each city gate became even stricter due to the influx of outsiders.
Anyone who wanted to leave the city must hold a special city exit permit authorized by the Martial Spirit Hall. Of course, Zeng Yi didn't have such a permit.
There were six city gates in the Martial Spirit City, and each gate was guarded by a Spirit Douluo with a rank of Rank 80. This made Zeng Yi abandon any thoughts of forcefully crossing.
Helplessly, Zeng Yi returned to the city and wandered around bored.
"Excuse me, are you the Sword Master of Tempest?"
A tender and gentle voice came from behind, causing Zeng Yi to pause, stop in his tracks, and turn around with a puzzled look. He saw a seemingly delicate girl standing in front of him.
She wore a cherry blossom-colored dress and appeared to be around 1.6 meters tall, significantly smaller compared to Zeng Yi's 1.8 meters.
The girl had long straight silver hair, with a cute pink ribbon tied into a butterfly bow that hung over her slightly protruding chest.
What surprised Zeng Yi was her extremely pale complexion, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness. She had ruby-like red pupils, which appeared enchanting, but complemented her silver hair perfectly.
This girl was beautiful. Even compared to Zhu ZhuQing and Qian Renxue that Zeng Yi had encountered before, she was not inferior.
A petite and lovely girl, resembling a girl next door, gazed at Zeng Yi with her intense red eyes. She seemed somewhat bold, but her delicate hands were tightly gripping her own waist, revealing her nervousness. A blush of shyness appeared on her fair cheeks.
White hair and red eyes?
Zeng Yi was somewhat surprised by the girl's hair color and eye color. Although various hair and eye colors existed in this world, white hair and red eyes were still very rare.
At least, it was the first time Zeng Yi had seen it.
However, girls with this hair color were usually the main character's design in animated works in his past life, or even if they weren't, they were characters with high popularity.
Who would've known people were obsessed with white hair?
But Zeng Yi was different.
Zeng Yi had always believed that the style of a black-haired, long-haired senior sister was his favorite, and anyone obsessed with white hair was impractical!
Zeng Yi was quite surprised by the sudden appearance of this girl. However, he was more curious about how she knew his title as the Sword Master of Tempest.
He had various titles given while fighting in the Great Spirit Arena, but the title of the Sword Master of Tempest was the most famous one.
Zeng Yi was certain that besides himself, there should be no one else in this world who dared to give him the title of the Sword Master of Tempest. While there were many Spirit Masters with the Wind Martial Spirit, having a sword with wind attributes was quite rare.
Moreover, anyone who dared to call themselves a swordmaster needed to have a relatively profound understanding of swordsmanship, and would take this title seriously.
Therefore, Zeng Yi was sure that this girl was calling him.
Moreover, her gaze confirmed it.
"Um, Yes. Did you call me?" Zeng Yi pointed at himself, asking the girl.
Seeing Zeng Yi's reaction, the girl became even more excited and nodded quickly.
"Yes, yes, are you really the Sword Master of Tempest?"
The girl walked excitedly to Zeng Yi's side, looking up at him with her red eyes fixated on him. The excited expression in her eyes was almost overflowing, and it seemed like there were tears swirling in them.
The sudden closeness of the girl caught Zeng Yi off guard. He could even smell her warm breath. The unique fragrance from the girl's body accelerated his blood flow.
Zeng Yi awkwardly took a few steps back to maintain a certain distance from the girl. However, he didn't expect this unknown girl to follow closely. This left Zeng Yi somewhat helpless.
"If there's no second Sword Master of Tempest in the world, then it must be me." Zeng Yi said with an embarrassed smile. He didn't know why this girl seemed particularly excited upon seeing him, as if she knew him.
But in Zeng Yi's memory, he had never seen this girl before.
With silver hair and red eyes, such distinct features, Zeng Yi would never forget if he had seen her before.
So, the girl's behavior left Zeng Yi puzzled.
"Great! Sakura has finally found you!"
Upon hearing Zeng Yi's words, the girl's emotions became even more intense. She grabbed Zeng Yi's arms and looked up at him, tears of excitement welling up in her tender and delicate face.
Sakura?
This name caused Zeng Yi to pause for a moment.
It seemed familiar.
But looking at her tearful and pitiable appearance, Zeng Yi was certain that he had never seen this girl before.
Zeng Yi furrowed his brows. He didn't expect this seemingly delicate and lovely girl to have unexpectedly strong grip strength, causing his arms to feel a bit sore.
"Um, please calm down first." Zeng Yi advised, breaking free from her grip and rubbing his slightly sore arms.
Looking at the emotional girl, Zeng Yi couldn't help but ask.
"Um, little sister, what's your name? How did you know about my title as the Sword Master of Tempest?"
Upon hearing this, the girl suddenly froze. The originally excited gaze in her eyes suddenly turned empty, losing all traces of expression, as if she were a dead person.
He...
He doesn't remember me!
