Astral Flower-Chapter 473: Arena

"Arena?" Feng Yu Hua was stunned when she heard Nan Hua’s answer. She looked at Nan Hua curiously. "Are you going to fight a hearty battle when you go there?"

"You think too much." Nan Hua shook her head.

A hearty battle?

She would not show her real abilities, so how could it be a hearty battle. What she did was to practice her control over her strength more and Long Qian Xing is the best opponent that she could find.

Because his physical strength was higher than her.

Even if Nan Hua accidentally add a bit of her strength, it would not affect Long Qian Xing too much.

"Tsk, you can also fight against me if you want to," Feng Yu Hua complained in a low voice.

If Nan Hua wanted to, she could also fight against her on the arena. After all, Feng Yu Hua was also restraining herself to make sure that her strength was not too much on the surface.

"No."

"Why?"

"Too weak."

Feng Yu Hua: "..."

She really wanted to shake Nan Hua and told her that she was not that weak. Even if her real strength was only C rank, it was not the beginning of C Rank but already nearing B rank, okay?

Well, there was still a distance away from B Rank because she didn’t focus too much on improving her strength, but it was definitely still very good.

At the very least, compared to Ouyang Lin, she was better!

...Uh, wait, why did she even want to compare with Ouyang Lin?

The two of them were raised in completely different environment. She was practicing for the sake of her life while Ouyang Lin was living in her family comfortably.

Feng Yu Hua shook her head to toss the thoughts away.

It felt rather strange.

"You can practice on your own if you want to," Nan Hua said and then entered the arena’s area. There were many people in the arena area today because the new students didn’t have any practice.

The senior students still have morning practice, but some of them were still here for some reasons. Either they didn’t have to practice or they were tasked to do other things. After all, after the fourth year, there were no longer many physical strength training and their training was usually about mecha’s control.

This mecha’s control drained a lot of their physical and mental strength, so the students were allowed to rest more on the weekends.

Long Qian Xing was already on the arena’s area, talking with Long Shi Yu and Tian Lou who were already there.

*yawn*

"Say, why did you drag us here?" Long Shi Yu asked while yawning. He was tired after a long practice with his mecha yesterday. Today, Long Qian Xing inexplicably dragged him and Tian Lou to the arena’s area.

Asking him for a practice duel?

That was very unlikely considering that their strength was far below Long Qian Xing. Neither Long Shi Yu or Tian Lou had the thoughts of challenging Long Qian Xing anytime soon.

"I’m going to fight with Nan Hua soon," Long Qian Xing replied. "So you’re going to stay here and watch our battles."

Long Shi Yu: "..."

Tian Lou: "..."

So, you’re telling us that you want to show dog food early in the morning and the two of us have to watch?

They felt their fingers itched, wanting to beat up someone so badly.

But thinking that their strength was not as good as Long Qian Xing and that they would have to call the other party as their ’dad’ again, the two of them could only restrain their urge.

They didn’t want to be beaten up again.

"Can’t we just go back?" Tian Lou wailed.

"Your physical strength’s practice has been rather slow lately." Long Qian Xing narrowed his eyes. "If you continue to be lazy, you will be surpassed by your juniors soon."

Tian Lou took a deep breath weakly. "But from the very beginning, I have no interest to develop my physical strength so much..."

"That doesn’t mean you can relax in your training."

Tian Lou: "..."

Long Shi Yu rubbed his nose. Lately, he has been training in mecha a lot and it was also very demanding in physical strength. Truth to be told, he didn’t have much physical strength left to practice his physical strength again.

Thankfully, they were not here to practice their hands but only to watch.

If he had to fight too, Long Shi Yu really want to throw in the towel. He was simply too tired.

"Brother Long," Nan Hua called out when they were close enough.

"Hua’er." Long Qian Xing smiled when he saw Nan Hua and nodded at Feng Yu Hua beside her.

"The others are not here?" Tian Lou thought that he would be able to see his younger brother with Nan Hua. After all, Tian Lin and the other two were usually around Nan Hua when they had the chance.

"They’re still sleeping," Feng Yu Hua replied.

She contacted Qing Shu Lian to ask about what he and the others were doing. Qian Fei Liu and Tian Lin were still sleeping, Sheng Lian Liu was in the Virtual World while Qing Shu Lian himself was busy with his experiment.

Tian Lou’s lips twitched. "That brat is really lazy."

Feng Yu Hua: "..."

Is he really lazy?

Thinking about how much Tian Lin was forced to practice and then being punished yesterday, Feng Yu Hua was not very surprised. This Tian Lin clamored he wanted to look handsome in the first few days in the academy and had successfully failed gloriously.

There was no way that he would be able to keep up that kind of act.

"Are you ready?" Long Qian Xing as he raised his hand to the instructor, requesting a private arena.

There were two types of arena, the public and private ones. Just like their names, the public could be watched by others while the private was an enclosed arena. It was designed to protect their privacy if they didn’t want to reveal their skills.
