Celestial Bloodlinechapter 174: he actually seemed sick

He looked at Bia who was already fast asleep and went to sleep as well.

Next day early morning, as usual, Kyle went to the classroom and after the lectures, he and Nine were walking side by side toward the training ground.

After a few minutes, they arrived and started training.

The training ground was filled with students. The top ten students were busy training while the remaining stood in front of Liam in rows.

The students looked at Liam seriously as he was giving a motivational speech.

The speech continued for an hour. Kyle almost cringed and blocked his ears because of the honorable and boring speech. He was not even able to focus on training.

With a sigh, he looked at Nine who was sitting beside him.

"How long do you think this will continue?"

Nine made a serious expression and counted his fingers before bursting out in laughter.

"No more than one week!"

Kyle smiled and looked at Liam when Nine pointed at the standing students.

"Look a few students were brainwashed by the Professor and stepped forward! Who do you think they are going to challenge?"

Kyle looked at the three students who were looking at the professor seriously. Their gaze burning with determination.

"No idea but I think I should get ready. Maybe they would pick me?"

He touched his sword and tapped Nine's shoulder.

"By the way when are you going to challenge one of the top ten? I don't think you are weak. The tournament is after two months are you not going to participate even after knowing the reward."

Nine gazed at the place where Kyle touched with a strange expression. His eyes widened slightly and the thread around his light golden pupils contracted for a second but after a second his eyes turned normal. He smirked and patted the back of Kyle's exposed hand.

Kyle stopped gazing at the two Arena stages and turned his head sideways to look at him.

"Hmm?"

"There's still two months. I will challenge someone and get a spot on the last week to avoid getting caught in a lot of battles."

"Alright. That's a good idea."

Kyle nodded and pointed at one of the stages.

"Someone claimed the stage and challenged Carcel!"

"Who?"

Nine eyes sparkled as he watched a buff student who had purplish hair standing on the stage with a serious expression.

"I know him, his name is Hinan. Just like the olive-haired boy who is following you recently he was following Carcel last week but stopped when the latter glared at him with deadly eyes."

"Anyway, why is he picking Carcel? He is strong but he can't defeat him, even I can't guarantee a victory against Carcel."

Kyle blinked his eyes when he heard about the 'Olive haired boy'. He knew Nine was talking about Tray because the only person following behind him was Tray.

"Hmm."

Nine grabbed Kyle's shoulder and shouted.

"Look Carcel is on the stage. It's starting!"

They both waited for a serious battle but what they saw left them speechless. Only after half a minute, Hinan dropped to his knees with various injuries.

Meanwhile, Professor Liam's face palmed when he saw the outcome of the battle.

The remaining students who were ready to challenge the top students again scattered and left the area without even looking back at Liam.

They almost got tricked because of his motivational speech!

Liam looked at the students and massaged his temples with a dejected expression.

'Damn it! I worked so hard to motivate them! Ugh... It's seemed there's no need for a referee any more.'

He looked back at the two Arena stages with a sigh and regained his old duty as a training instructor.

"Students, the Arena stages are open for the next two months! Remember you can challenge the top students. It's okay if today no one wants to but you have a lot of time!"

He clapped his hands to gather everyone's attention.

"Let's start training now! Today we will do some physical training. So first everyone should run ten rounds around the training ground. Then we will do push-ups and pull-ups!"

The students groaned when Liam shouted with a serious expression.

"Hurry up!"

Kyle looked at the running students and stood up. He gazed at Nine and started running as well.

"Let's join them."

Bia who was sleeping on his head woke up due to the sudden movement. She yawned and started flying around.

Nine gazed at Bia for a while. He stood up and followed behind Kyle with a tired expression while grumbling inwardly.

'I swear the only thing I hate is running!'

His gaze lingered on Kyle's back as Alec, Carcel, and the girls also joined the run.

Alec dashed and tapped Nine's shoulder with a smile.

"Hey, your face seemed a little pale what happened? Did you see a ghost!"

Nine dazed gaze was fixed on Kyle's back as he whispered slowly.

"So many injuries?..."

His sentence trailed off as he felt a stinging pain inside his eyes. He rubbed them gently and shook his head before looking at Alec with a sigh.

"Just a little tired."

"Okay but if you are feeling sick rest for a while."

Alec side glanced at him and left him alone. After they were done Professor Liam asked them to do some push-ups but only after a few push-ups Nine raised his hand with difficulty and looked at Liam.

"Sir, I am not feeling good. I want a tiny break."

Liam gazed at him with a frown.

"Within the last two months, it's the 20th time you have been feeling sick during training! Do you think I don't know what your tricks are?"

Nine clicked his tongue and just resigned to his fate with a downcast expression.

After they were done with the push-ups, Professor Liam made them run again until the students were breathless.

The top students were relatively fine compared to the others so Liam dismissed the remaining students before asking the top students to run again.

While running, Kyle looked at Nine who was dragging his body toward the exit with the other students. He chuckled.

'For once, he actually seemed sick.'
