Chapter 35: The Two Remaining People

After pondering for a while on the bed, Lin Bai suddenly realized a serious problem.

The Tumbler Spell could only ensure that he did not fall. However, it could not strike down others.

In other words, no matter how everyone fought in the arena, there would always be another person left behind.

It would be best if that person wasn’t Han Bin.

After all, that person… was really too abnormal.

Lin Bai secretly prayed in his heart that the person he would fight in the end was someone who could take advantage of the situation.

This way… It was also easier for Lin Bai to find loopholes.

…

The next day…

Many students had already gathered in the plaza in the morning. Everyone was waiting for today’s battle royale to begin.

Such a large-scale battle among the top 50 was unprecedented in Sorcha College. Thus, for the magic students who wanted to watch experts fight, it was simply a feast for the eyes.

Even some students who did not show up yesterday rushed over excitedly after hearing the news and quietly waited for the start of the battle royale.

About half an hour later, the voices of the professors and elders of Sorcha College appeared on the stage one after another. Then, Dean Caesar appeared.

However, he did not sit in the centermost seat. Instead, he chose a seat slightly to the right.

The seat in the middle was still empty.

“Is someone more powerful than Caesar going to show up?” A student noticed this detail and asked.

In Sorcha College, the only person who held a higher position than the dean was the principal.

However, it had been almost two years since the mysterious principal had gone missing. Thus, the principal, who had never shown his face, was suspected to be dead.

As the student finished his question, a familiar figure appeared on the stage.

The moment he appeared, Lin Bai suddenly froze.

That person was Destin, whom he had met once in the Death Swamp!

Lin Bai looked at Destin. Then, his head suddenly buzzed.

What… was his identity?!

At first, Lin Bai thought Destin was just a slightly more powerful old man.

However, it seemed like that was not the case.

“Who is that old man?” Lin Bai poked the person next to him. From his expression, he seemed to know Destin’s identity.

That person looked at Lin Bai strangely and said, “You don’t even know Destin? He’s the President of the Hunter’s Association!”

Lin Bai was stunned.

Destin… was actually the President of the Hunter Association?!

Lin Bai had thought that Destin’s status should be rather high… However, he had never thought that it would be so high.

“Mr. Destin is actually willing to attend this Arena Match. Sorcha College is truly honored to have you.” Charlotte walked to Destin’s side and greeted him politely.

Destin waved his hand and smiled. “Don’t praise me. I just heard about the rules of the battle royale and was attracted here.”

“I wonder if Mr. Destin has a suitable champion candidate in mind.”

Destin looked at the crowd below the stage and fell into deep thought. Then, he asked, “Professor Charlotte, who do you think will win in the end?”

“In my opinion, the strongest among these students is undoubtedly Han Bin, so I think his chances of winning are the highest.”

Destin nodded.

“Han Bin? I can tell that he is very strong.”

“However, the one I think the best of is probably Lin Bai.”

Everyone on the platform was stunned upon hearing Destin’s words.

Why did he choose Lin Bai?!

Destin saw the shock on everyone’s faces and laughed, “Do you really think that Lin Bai became a Hunter because of Su Ya’s help?”

“What other reasons could there be?” Charlotte muttered in her heart, but she did not really say it out loud.

“I asked the higher-ups responsible for observing the situation in the Hunter Elementary Test. Only then did I learn that the one who played a major role in the Hunter Elementary Test was not Su Ya, but Lin Bai!”

Everyone on the stage was instantly speechless.

In that case, not only did Lin Bai not receive Su Ya’s help, he even helped Su Ya along the way?!

How could that kid be so strong?

What was even more terrifying was that they did not realize it at all!

Destin turned away and said nothing more. He narrowed his eyes and began to carefully observe the upcoming battle royale.

…

Lin Bai stepped onto the huge arena in a relaxed manner. Along with him were the other 49 competitors.

Before Lin Bai could adjust his state, the judge had already announced the start of the battle royale without any warning.

With a shiver, Lin Bai immediately occupied the center of the entire ring.

This was the spot where it would be hardest for him to go out of bounds.

As long as he did not fall out of bounds, no one could eliminate him!

He had already casted the Tumbler Spell on himself in the morning. Thus, for the next 24 hours, he did not have to worry about being eliminated because he fell!

Thus, Lin Bai crossed his arms in front of his chest and made a nonchalant posture. He looked coldly at the other students who had already started fighting, but did not move.

“What, are you scared silly?” A voice rang out behind Lin Bai.

Lin Bai turned his head to look. The source of the voice was a big, fierce-looking man.

Bang!

The burly man was rather straightforward. Without saying anything, he charged towards Lin Bai.

Lin Bai felt pain.

Good lord, with such weight, who wouldn’t fall to the ground!

Bro, you’re invincible!

Lin Bai’s center of gravity became unstable for a moment, but he immediately recovered. His body that was about to fall miraculously regained its balance.

On the platform, Charlotte happened to catch this scene, and a strange look flashed across her eyes.

Was that the Tumbler Spell?

Did she just witness the Tumbler Spell?

Didn’t she simply mention it jokingly in class?

Did Lin Bai learn it?

“I don’t think so.” Charlotte dismissed her thoughts and shook her head.

However, what happened next made her doubt herself.

This was because no matter who it was that fought Lin Bai, Lin Bai never took action. He only focused on defense and almost fell several times.

However, Lin Bai maintained his balance with an almost bizarre movement technique. Like a tumbler toy that would never fall, he remained completely composed in the arena.

Charlotte’s face had gone pale.

Now, she had no choice but to believe that Lin Bai had indeed learned the Tumbler Spell.

Could it be that Lin Bai was really a hidden genius?!

In the arena.

The number of people who were still standing in the arena was decreasing.

Among the people who remained in the arena, other than some of the elites whom the crowd had expected to see, there were also some small groups who stayed together..
