Chapter 107
“Ha-ha, it seems to be true.”
…
Seeing that even the teachers in the Office of Academic Affairs were refused, the surrounding students began to sigh. They previously thought that the Office of Academic Affairs didn’t like Locke’s training method, but it turned out that the teachers in the Office of Academic Affairs didn’t even go in.
Just as the students outside sighed, the training on the training ground had come to an end.
In front of Locke, there were nine pieces of fireball floating in the air. Although it failed, it was much better than the last two times.
At this time, Bryce and others all looked at Marcia.
The size of the fireball in Marcia’s hand had been reduced to 1/3 of the previous size. Although she was very tired, she did not dare to relax at all. All her attention was focused on the fireball in her hand.
With the efforts of Marcia, the fireball became smaller and smaller at a visible speed.
“It seems that Marcia will be the first one to succeed among us.”
Looking at the fireball in Marcia’s hand, Bryce said gloomily. Who would have thought that an introverted girl who was usually quiet would be so persistent.
Failed…
Feeling that the fire element in the fireball in Marcia’s hand was out of control, Locke sighed in his heart.
As expected, just as Locke finished his words in his heart, he saw that the fire element in the fireball suddenly became restless, and the fireball also trembled and was about to explode in an instant.
Facing the fireball, which was about to explode, Bryce was no longer flustered at the beginning. They didn’t need to be afraid as their boss was here!
At this time, Locke also made a move. The powerful spirit power instantly wrapped around the fireball and suppressed the restlessness of the fire element in a strong posture. The fireball, which was about to explode, suddenly stabilized and flew towards Locke.
Looking at the fireball in front of Locke, Marcia wiped the sweat on her forehead and said in a somewhat frustrated tone, “I still failed…”
“It’s okay, Marcia. You have done a good job.” Cindy hugged Marcia and comforted her. As she spoke, she glanced at Bryce beside her and continued, “Some people even have problems in condensing the most basic fireball.”
Bryce, who had planned to comfort Marcia, rolled his eyes.
“You did a good job.”
Locke said with a smile.
Hearing Locke’s words, Marcia nodded her head heavily, and the depression on her face instantly disappeared.
Everyone had finished their training, and Locke began to comment on their shortcomings.
On the other side, Braun also reported what had happened on the training ground to Mrs. Baulah. To his surprise, she was not nervous at all. Instead, she asked Braun to be relaxed and not worry about Locke’s training.
Since he had said so, Braun didn’t care about it anymore.
Time flew. A week passed quickly. During the week, in addition to physical training, Bryce and the others gradually mastered the release technique of the new version of the fireball spell. Locke also received the invitation letter from Rosaline.
In addition to the daily teaching, Locke and Athena mainly read magic books in the small courtyard.
During Locke’s teaching, Athena went to the library to read a magic book by herself. During this period, some boys wanted to accost her. However, in the face of these boys who wanted to accost her, Athena didn’t even raise her head.
Gradually, she became the “goddess of ice and snow”.
In order to avoid trouble, they usually borrowed the magic books and read them in the yard.
The day of the auction came soon.
As the sunset, the huge city was shrouded in the sunset glow. The faint yellow light sprinkled on the exquisite buildings, making the city more tender and beautiful.
As the headquarters, the Treasure Pavilion was extremely lofty. It was a ten-story building, which covered a large area. In front of the building was a square, with exquisite floor tiles and a large fountain in the center.
When Locke and Athena arrived at the Treasure Pavilion, they found that there was a line of nearly a hundred meters in front of the square.
The annual auction of the Treasure Pavilion, in addition to the big families, naturally attracted the attention of the whole city. These people were the leaders of some small organizations or practitioners, which was a place of leisure without joining any organizations. They didn’t receive an invitation from the Treasure Pavilion.
Although these people didn’t have much money to participate in the auction, it still couldn’t stop them from taking part in it. After all, such a large auction was basically a fairy battle between the top forces. Although they couldn’t participate, they could see the world and have the ability to brag in the future.
“Young man, are you also here for the auction?”
Seeing Locke and Athena standing still, a middle-aged man asked enthusiastically.
Although Locke and Athena were good-looking, the clothes they wore were not as luxurious as those of the nobility. Moreover, if one got an invitation, when he or she went to the auction, he or she would like to walk over like this.
He directly regarded Locke and Athena as the nobility who wanted to see the world.
Locke nodded and said with a smile, “Of course, I’m here for the auction.”
“Then you have to wait for a while.”
Looking at the long queue ahead, the man said helplessly, “People like us who don’t have an invitation can only queue up here and pay the admission fee of 100 gold coins.”
“That’s the VIP passage.” The man pointed at another spacious entrance in the front and looked at the VIP passage in the distance. He could not help but show admiration in his eyes. He mumbled, “When I have money in the future, I must get a red invitation.”
“A red invitation?”
Locke was stunned. He didn’t expect that the invitation was graded.
“There are two types of invitation in the Treasure Pavilion, red and purple. The red invitation is usually for the relatively powerful strength in Naton County. And this purple invitation is especially for the peak forces or the powerful practitioners in Naton County.”
The man explained to Locke and Athena. While speaking, he raised his head complacently because he thought that he was experienced and knowledgeable.
“Ha-ha, Humphrey, don’t dream about it. It’s just a daydream for you, the small gang, to receive the invitation from the Treasure Pavilion!”
Hearing the mocking voice from behind, Humphrey’s face turned red.
Three men came up from behind, led by a strong man full of mockery.
The strong man came over, looked at Locke, Athena and the others, and said with an evil smile, “You, go to the back!”
Locke was speechless at the sight of the aggressive man.
“Did you hear that?” Seeing that Locke didn’t respond, the strong man clenched his fists threateningly.
“Alvin, be careful not to be blacklisted by the Treasure Pavilion.”
Seeing that Alvin was about to take action, Humphrey stood in front of Locke and Athena secretly and reminded him loudly.
Alvin laughed. How could the organizer Treasure Pavilion have the time to care about their cutting in line? He pushed Humphrey away and reached out to Locke, intending to lift Locke to the back.
