Edes Academy, training ground.
A girl with blond hair and an orange dress stood under the visor, looking at the stones on the ground in the distance. She raised a hand, and fiery red particles emerged from the air, and then continued to gather, forming a rotating flame vortex.
The air waves brought by the heat stream spread her hair and dress, and a twisting and compressed flame ball gradually appeared in the center of the vortex where the flames gathered.
Then the flame ball was launched and hit a stone hundreds of meters away. Countless flames exploded and licked the surrounding gravel and earth. Even standing under the visor, one could feel the fire coming from a distance. Heat wave.
"Avni is amazing."
“Awesome~”
Several companions behind her praised happily, but such compliments did not make Avni happy.
She just smiled politely, thanked her companion for the compliment, and then sat back down silently, lost in thought.
Yes, her abilities were pretty good, and there were very few people of her age who were better than her, but even so, she couldn't be happy.
Because she has talents that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve, it is not difficult to achieve such results. Compared with those people in history who have perfect talents, there are many people who advanced to Sequence 4 at the age of 16. Take the one she knows who has the same The boy with a [Perfect Level] talent is about the same age as me. He has advanced to Sequence 4 for almost a year now, and is charging towards Sequence 5. I am really not satisfied with this.
Friends around her praised her simply because they didn't know that her speed of advancement was actually slower among the same geniuses.
Sigh... She let out a breath. Although she was a little upset, she didn't want to tell the people around her.
Her father is a high-ranking official, and her mother also works in a government agency. She often has to be cautious in her words and deeds. In addition, she has been surrounded by many flattering people with ulterior motives since she was a child. This made her a little averse to socializing and the people around her who pursued her. , either he is lustful, or he wants to use her to have a relationship with his father, or both.
The only person we can talk to each other about in life is one of our childhood friends. Unfortunately, the other person did not come to Edes Academy, but went to another school.
Others, although they may be considered classmates and friends on the surface, are not that close after all.
Avni was sitting aside looking at the ground, thinking about something in her mind, when a set of footsteps came over, making her wake up, and then she looked up.
They were the boys who played yesterday. She recognized the five people who walked up to her.
"Hello, classmate Avni, I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. This is our apology gift to you." After saying that, several people bent down and bowed, and then handed over a crystal box.
There is a leaping and rotating flame core in the crystal box. This is an extremely delicate artificial core used for demonstration and decoration.
Natural Sequence 4·Whirlpool Star Flame (rated as "Perfect Level"), as long as you follow the template of this artificial core and condense your own extraordinary core, you can advance to the job of Whirlpool Star Flame. It can be said that it is a better inheritance of extraordinary than a memory card. The secret way of job placement.
Even in Edes Academy, this is considered a relatively precious gift. It would cost at least millions of federal coins outside. After all, such an artificial core is not easy to make. It is usually made by masters in certain fields by hand. , cannot be mass produced.
Avni was a little irritated when she suddenly received such an expensive gift. In fact, she did not lack such things. On the contrary, if she accepted it for nothing, it would cause some trouble. She would probably be lectured by her father again when she returned.
"Who asked you to give it away? It's so annoying to be so self-centered." She didn't give the other party any face.
After saying that, the girl turned around and left with a few companions, leaving a few people looking at each other.
"Avni is indeed as difficult to get along with as the rumors say." Some students watching nearby discussed in a low voice.
"She is so proud..."
"I really don't give face to my classmates."
While others were chattering and discussing, the boys in the middle put away the boxes angrily. They were originally very happy after they came up with a plan to collectively save money to give gifts yesterday, but now they are not happy at all.
"Why, isn't it a good gift?" They didn't understand.
"Sure enough, we must have misjudged her. Avni is such a cold, arrogant and difficult person to get along with."
"Oh, I really don't want to offend Avni. My family is also engaged in energy-related companies. If her father gets stuck randomly, he will lose a lot of money."
Several people had no choice but to quickly leave the training ground in order to avoid further embarrassment.
On the other side of the training ground, Tilan was practicing swordsmanship. Her opponent was Anneli. The swords they held were slightly different. The sword in Anneli's hand was more of a stabbing sword, light and swift, while the sword in Tilan's hand was slightly more sharp. It looked formal, with a slender blade and a cross-shaped hilt, which gave it a slightly more ornate illusion when held in her hand.
Today, Tilan is wearing a black dress, black stockings, and black hairpins. Only the collar and skirt are decorated with a few blue roses. Her eyes are like blue crystals. Her figure is slender, and she has both innocence and charm. Collision with each other, perfect integration.
Fortunately, the training ground where the two of them were at was in a separate room, and there were no outsiders watching. Otherwise, pictures of Tilan would have been circulated around the campus the next day.
After losing her previous timidity, the charm of this girl with black hair and blue eyes began to show.
Anneli was wearing a dark blue skirt, a white shirt top, and her legs were wrapped in gray stockings, which exposed the curves of her legs. She had flexible steps and moved easily on the ground. The stabbing sword in her hand traced the afterimage in the air, with only a few silver streaks. The sword arc flashed suddenly, stabbing Tilan in different directions.
At the beginning, she did not hold back, but went all out. This was not the first time she had sparred with Tilan. At first, she thought Tilan was not good at swordsmanship. After all, in the information file, this The educational environment the girl received before was not very good, and she did not have the opportunity to be exposed to it.
But after their first encounter, she realized how wrong she was.
In the previous two days of fighting, she lost 16 out of 16 times, and was easily defeated by Tilan every time with swordsmanship. This was the result of the two of them restraining their extraordinary abilities and not using additional abilities to assist.
In the slightly dark room, the figures of the two people kept intertwining, and the sound of sword blades interlacing could be heard from time to time. Compared with Anneli's all-out effort, Tilan was much more relaxed and freehand. Although the long sword in her hand looked more piercing. The sword is slightly wider, but more flexible. The blade turns like a swallow in the air, with an indescribable smoothness and lightness.
However, she has not always used this kind of swordsmanship, and is constantly changing her way of using the sword, sometimes obscure, sometimes brisk, as if she is getting familiar with some unfamiliar swordsmanship, and then slowly integrating it into her own system.
After another clash of swords, Annelie stepped back, panting.
"No more fighting, I'm so tired." The young lady with short silver-gray hair had sweat all over her forehead.
Although during the fight, Tilan seemed to have several flaws due to her lack of proficiency in the new swordsmanship, every time she attacked, Tilan was able to change again, allowing herself to block Anneli's attacks in a suitable way. Stab and cut.
After Anneli stopped, Tilan was still meditating quietly, waving the sword in her hand from time to time, spinning between her fingers, and drawing arcs in the air.
If a careful person compares the image of her wielding a sword just now with Themisia's swordsmanship at the Winter Festival Gala in the past, they will find that their swordsmanship has many similar details, but their styles are different.
Themisia's swordsmanship is more focused on offense and leaping movements, which is extremely gorgeous, while her swordsmanship is more reserved and defensive, with a quiet beauty that is as immovable as a mountain but unshakable.
After a while, Tilan took back the sword, then walked to Anneli and began to teach her what she had missed and could improve in her swordsmanship.
After accepting Themisia's memory and the inheritance of Qinglian Sword Cleansing Palace, her insights on swordsmanship may not be comparable to even some of today's masters, but they are limited by time and sequence levels. , it’s just that many sword skills and secret skills cannot be fully utilized.
After the explanation, it was getting late, and the two walked out of the dark room where they practiced swordsmanship.
At this time, there were not many students staying in the training ground, only a few here and there.
When Tilan walked by, several people couldn't help but be surprised, just because Tilan's outfit was really shocking, with long black hair, black stockings, black shoes, a black skirt, and only a few flowers. The blue rose is like the finishing touch, which makes people marvel.
After entering the interstellar era, due to the improvement of genetic technology, the probability of handsome men and beautiful women has increased a lot, and many beauty and makeup technologies have emerged. It can be said that as long as you have money, you will not be too ugly, but even so, people with special temperament still They are rare, and the girl in front of them is one of them.
Walking past everyone, although the girl did not turn her eyes, she felt the eyes were focused on her, which made her a little embarrassed. In fact, this dress was also the first time for her to wear it. It was the maid who had recently worn it. Long request.
The clothes were designed and cut by a master in the Central Star Territory. After they were sent to the academy, the head maid Pranli asked her to wear this dress and move around the campus, whether it was dining, practicing swordsmanship, or other things. After returning at night, Pulanli will check the details on the clothes to see where they are worn and where the hook threads are damaged.
Dressing appropriately is an important part of etiquette. It may not be difficult to make good-looking clothes, but how to bring out the style and beauty attached to the clothes while maintaining elegance is indeed not easy.
Many people put on formal attire and look like they are wearing a crown, which is neither fish nor fowl. Some of the details of their behavior do not match the look and feel of the clothes, giving them a feeling of conflict and fragmentation. This is 1+1<1, which actually lowers their own image.
When going out in the morning, the head maid taught Tilan this way, which put the girl in a dilemma. Although she had received etiquette training, she had no clue how to bring out the beauty of this dress, so she showed There is only the innocence and flawlessness of a girl, which is indeed different from the dark-style dresses.
But inexplicably, her temperament did not conflict with the dark dress, but blended in so well that Pulanli didn't know how to evaluate it.
"You are more special." In the end, the other party had no choice but to admit that this was indeed much better than putting in all the effort and deliberately learning how to behave.
Some people are naturally cute and can attract others just by sitting where they are. As someone who has met many wealthy ladies, she has to sigh that Hesia Tilan is really a special child. .
It seems that she is inconspicuous and a little ordinary at first, but as you get along with her, you are unknowingly attracted by her charm. She is innocent and simple, but at the same time she is inexplicably tough, strong, soft on the outside but strong on the inside.
Etiquette training is by no means an easy thing. It is often boring and tedious. It requires constant practice and finding a suitable range. This kind of work often leaves the waist and legs sore at the end of the day. Many wealthy ladies take half a day. They couldn't hold on and complained endlessly.
But when teaching Tilan, the girl never complained. She just accepted the training patiently and quietly, and she was not lazy mentally. She was really thinking and adjusting herself, which made Pulanli feel much more relaxed.
Although some people appear to be doing things on the surface, in fact they have given up mentally or are irritable and disgusted. They are just moving their bodies and act half-heartedly.
"Although I am not a big shot, in my opinion, Miss Tilan will definitely not be limited to this in the future."
After getting along for a while, Pulanli gradually developed some respect for this girl, no longer thinking that she was the common and delicate daughter of a wealthy family.
"Why can you always be like this without any complaints in your heart? My teachings are very strict and inhumane. Many people have cried when I lectured them in the past." One night, after training, Pulanli said this Ask Tilan.
"Maybe it's because I had a difficult experience before." The girl sat on the walnut chair, her long black hair scattered around her collar and shoulders.
"I am inconspicuous in the school, and the teachers are also very busy. Many students come to them every day. The opportunity to ask them questions and get guidance is very rare."
"Because my family background is poor, education is a rare way to escape my environment. I cherish this hard-won opportunity."
"There are many students in the teacher's class, and the performance of a single student does not affect her income. She is not obliged to teach every student in detail and carefully."
"I have nothing to offer the teacher. I can only remember every word she said hard and carefully, and then ask questions in the limited time."
"I am very grateful to the teachers for their teachings and answers. I know that their teachings are good for me, so I will not complain, because it is not easy for them to selflessly and patiently explain to me. They could have been perfunctory. Mine, after all, it doesn’t affect their income.”
Maybe that's the case, Pulanli looked at the girl sitting on the chair.
For any teacher, when he has such a pious, non-anxious, and serious student, he can bear not to teach her well. Rather than saying it is good luck, it is better to say that this is the result of her own hard work.
The black-haired girl sat on the chair, like an unknown flower blooming silently in the corner, her weakness and strength were unified in her body.
