The speaker was the teacher leading the Heaven Dou Royal Academy second team.
He looked at his students' condition, feeling anxious but helpless.
Almost all of their injuries were penetrating wounds. Although they didn't hit any vital organs, they showed that they lacked proper training.
Focalors' healing methods were famous in Heaven Dou City, and her "bringing back the dead" skills were miraculous.
He had a simple idea. If Focalors was willing to lift a finger, his students' injuries could be healed on the spot.
It wouldn't affect their future matches.
The audience also fell silent, wondering if Neuvillette and Focalors would help.
The contestants also looked over, with mixed feelings on their faces.
If they could ask for outside help to heal their injuries, they could also do the same when they got hurt, or even directly ask Focalors and Neuvillette to intervene!
No one had any objections to treatment.
After all, no one could guarantee that they wouldn't get injured.
Neuvillette and Focalors exchanged a glance, and after a moment, the two "people" shook their heads.
It was easy to treat the members of the second team, but it wasn't fair to the other teams.
Many times, luck was also part of strength.
For example, during the draw tomorrow, a relatively weak team might win against the second team.
If they didn't help the second team heal, the weak team would win. If they helped the second team heal, the weak team would lose.
It was unfair to those lucky players.
Once Focalors took the initiative, the rest of the game would be chaotic.
Luck, tactics, etc. were all long-term factors that needed to be managed.
"Sorry, helping you would be equivalent to harming the lucky players, which would be very detrimental to the operation of the long-term game. I believe you understand this logic."
Neuvillette said with an unchanged expression.
He didn't think that the leader of the second team was ignorant of this.
Sure enough, after Neuvillette's explanation, the leader of the second team "suddenly realized."
"Of course, if the player being treated is willing to withdraw from the competition, I am still willing to help."
Focalors floated over and said with a smile.
Everyone: "..."
Focalors was kind-hearted and willing to help, but the price was to withdraw from the competition!
This was only the first game of the first round!
How could they quit?
They had finally got a chance to participate in the continent-wide elite soul master academy competition held every five years, but they would lose it right after getting injured?
After hearing Focalors and Neuvillette's words, the audience and players nodded after a brief thought.
They finally understood why these two people didn't help.
As the saying goes, luck is also part of strength.
If everyone was in perfect health every day, it would be a golden age.
Was the points system still necessary?
They might as well let the top five teams in terms of overall strength advance.
"Master Neuvillette, Lady Focalors, I understand!"
"Thank you, two adults, for clearing up the confusion!"
The leader of the Second Team was not a reckless person. Considering the identities and strength of Neuvillette and Focalors, he admitted his mistake with sincerity.
Others could benefit from luck, so why couldn't they, the Second Team, "pick up the leaks"?
According to the leader's estimation, this year's second team might only rank sixth or seventh among all the participating teams.
If they didn't have any luck, it would be almost impossible for them to advance successfully.
Focalors and Neuvillette rejected their request, and they would naturally reject the requests of other teams as well.
In this way, all beings were equal, and everyone relied on either strength or luck!
The leader of the second team seemed to have made some kind of decision and left with his team members without looking back.
Their injuries were not serious, but because the wounds were rather strange, they were hard to heal, which would affect their future matches.
This was what worried the leader the most.
When the contestants saw this, they sighed in relief and felt a bit puzzled.
The teacher leading the second team was a strong man at the Soul Emperor level!
Such a strong man would surely be a guest of honor in a kingdom or principality.
They could understand why the weaklings in the audience called them Lord and Lady.
But this powerful Soul Emperor actually called Neuvillette and Focalors Lord and Lady as well!
Moreover, these two "people" didn't seem uncomfortable at all, nor did they object, but readily accepted it!
Even those sitting in the VIP seats didn't think anything was wrong.
They all thought it was normal, but that was the most abnormal thing!
Neuvillette and Focalors looked no more than 15 years old.
With confusion and curiosity, everyone left the Heaven Dou Great Spirit Fighting Arena one after another.
There was only one "exhibition match" at the opening ceremony, and the official match would start tomorrow.
Although the teams participating today were under a lot of pressure because it was their first game, they had one more day of rest than the other teams.
Relatively speaking, it was fair.
After the audience and players left the spirit fighting arena, the VIP seats gradually emptied, and the staff began to clean up the spirit fighting arena non-stop to prepare for tomorrow's match.
"Neuvillette, Focalors, long time no see!"
At this moment, a gentle and slightly cold voice sounded behind Neuvillette and Focalors.
The two "people" couldn't help but stop, turn around, and look at the source of the sound.
"It's Ms. Shui Bing'er and the ladies from Skywater Academy."
After hearing this, the girls' eyes twitched. Why was this title so awkward?
Were they ladies?
They were obviously girls, right?
Of course, it was just a title, and they didn't mind.
"Long time no see."
Focalors nodded and smiled.
"You two, we are here for the original agreement."
Shui Bing'er said bluntly. It was only reasonable to take people's money and do things for them.
When they accepted the five thousand gold soul coins, they naturally didn't forget about the dance.
Neuvillette was stunned for a moment and thought for a while, then he remembered what was going on.
That trip to the far north...no, it was probably when he and Focalors went to Skywater Academy to invite the Skywater girl group to perform a dance in the preliminaries.
Then when they were halfway there, they happened to meet this year's Skywater girl group.
After the negotiation was done, he and Focalors went to the far north for some fun.
"Okay, Ms. Shui Bing'er and ladies, do you need to rehearse on the ring?"
Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, Xuewu and the rest glanced at each other and nodded in agreement.
They had practiced in private, but the ring was a different setting from their usual venue.
They needed to rehearse…
