"But." He said. "Not now. As you can see, I got Martial Apprentices to instruct over there."
He gestured over to some Martial Apprentices who were listening.
"No no sir, no need to bother with us."
"That's right, we can practice on our own for a while."
"You should also help other students out, not only us."
They quickly chimed in, insisting Squire Dylon spar with Rui then and there. Dylon sighed as Rui smirked. In the three years that he had been in the Martial Academy, he had earned a large fanbase among the newer batches of Martial Apprentices that had come along.
Furthermore, everyone could see that he had gotten much stronger than he was before. They were all curious to see how much stronger, and how far he could push Squire Dylon. It was a very rare event that they probably wouldn't get to see again. And they got to take a break.
"Hmph." He snorted as Rui smirked. "Popular, aren't you? Been here for only three years and you're more popular than I am."
