His words shocked his men, they weren't sure that they heard it right. He wanted those women to fight against all of them, even thought they would fight together, it would be pretty unfair to give them such small rest time.
A man did point it out, "Lord, don't you think that would be unfair for these girls to fight against us and then only rest for half an hour." Ryusei smiled as he heard his words and replied, "Don't worry about them. I don't think that the 30 min. rest will also be too much. When you fight them, you will understand the reason!"
After the first round, all of them understood why he gave them just 30 minutes rest, they were monsters. And they were paired together with their Elements complimenting each other's abilities, the Rongrong used her ice for defence while Feng Cai'er used her abilities to attack.
Even those in the 50th Rank were destroyed minutes after the match began, they glanced towards their lord, on his face wasn't a look of surprise visible on his face, it was like he expected them to be destroyed by these girls.
They felt a blow on their pride, after having their Spirit Rings, they felt as if they could conquer the world but here, they couldn't even defeat two girls that were about 12-13 years of age.
They realized that they had a long way to go before they could stand up on Ryusei's expectation of them. But what they didn't know was, it was the same case for Rongrong and Feng Cai'er.
Even though they were winning, they knew how close the match was, how were quite clumsy in using their Abilities against them and their aim and power was also not up to the mark.
The reason for that was because their feelings got in the way, they hadn't ever fought against humans. Rongrong because she was a Support Type Spirit Master and was required to support from the back while Feng Cai'er didn't have her memory so she had already forgotten her combat experience.
But this wasn't all that Ryusei hoped to accomplish, the first thing he wanted was let his men realize that it was a trouble to fight against a pair with complimenting spirits with each other, the next thing he wanted them to realize how to co-ordinate with each other.
He was sure that they would now start working on their co-ordination skills from now on, there pride was hurt by two young girls, even with a higher spirit Rank than them they couldn't defeat them because their spirits were perfectly compatible for Defence and Attack.
He also wanted Rongrong and Feng Cai'er to lose their awkwardness when fighting against a human, he knew that it would decide the match if they paused slightly in a life or death situation.
Besides by fighting together, they could also cover up their weak points and it would be a perfect match. He himself didn't fight because from the eyes of the group, he had realized their arrogance, their pride in their power.
He knew that he would have to break that pride and crush it into pieces so that they would train even harder, if he himself fought against them, they wouldn't think it was so strange since he had defeated their boss very easily and revealed the power that he had.
But it wasn't the case with Rongrong and Feng Cai'er. They hadn't revealed any of their power and on the surface, they seemed like they were happy normal girls that liked to play around.
Well not for Rongrong, she did have an aura around her, the aura of a Noble heir so the members did know that her identity was obviously extraordinary. While Feng Cai'er was carefree and they thought that she was like a happy go lucky child.
After the spars with everyone, Rongrong and Feng Cai'er were so tired that they laid down on the ground as they gasped heavily.
Ryusei looked towards the other members and raised his voice, "I believe you all understand why I made you fight against them. Now think about this and then come tomorrow. I think that the thing that you need to improve isn't the power of the technique but the way you use the technique. The time when you are able to use your techniques effectively, you would be unparallel on the battlefield."
His words did bring some enthusiasm, they knew where their faults lied, they knew what they did wrong and were given time to think about them. Ryusei could see the fire in their eyes, the fire to get better, he knew that he was going to get a nice surprise from them the next day.
It was afternoon right now, he returned back to the inn as he let Rongrong and Feng Cai'er sleep. He went outside and went inside the Inn where his members stayed, the Bright Silver Inn.
He asked at the reception, "Can I ask for the room of my friend, Lin Yanluo? He forgot tot tell me the room number."He gave a beautiful smile to the receptionist as she slightly blushed and nodded her head.
She pointed towards the direction of his room and told him the room number, she didn't think that the child had any bad intentions at all and let it go. Ryusei entered Lin Yanluo's room and saw him sitting down while thinking something.
As he took another step, he alerted Lin Yanluo and Lin Yanluo turned towards Ryusei as he slightly bowed down. Lin Yanluo wondered why did Ryusei come to meet him, "What happened Lord? Do you require my services?"
Ryusei nodded as he said with a serious expression on his face, "Yes, I do need your services. Let's go, I shall explain the task along the way…" Lin Yanluo nodded as he followed behind Ryusei.
He was slightly surprised that the first place that they went to was a clothing shop, he didn't know why they came here and it turned out that his lord wanted to buy some set of clothes that were simple and also covered his whole body.
Lin Yanluo wore them and looked into the mirror, he was surprised when he saw that even he couldn't recognize himself in the mirror. It was as if someone else was standing who was the same height as he was.
After buying those clothes for him, Ryusei went towards outside of the Town Lord's tower and Lin Yanluo saw a cart that was ready to leave from there. Ryusei informed Lin Yanluo, "That's our target…We have to follow the cart till it is out of the Town and then you will take the position as the Cart Driver."
The reason Ryusei didn't make him the cart driver right now, he wanted to know the exact location in which the Cart Driver was moving in. From the time he met the Dark Lord, he knew that he was an intelligent man, he would notice if the Cart's track changed from its original direction and didn't want to take such a risk.
They applied their plan into motion as soon as the Cart was out of the town and was moving in the Northern Direction. Lin Yanluo sat on the driver's seat of the cart as he let it move ahead while Ryusei was following him from behind.
Suddenly, he noticed a bizarre event. He noticed the fruits and the money coming out of the Cart through some sort of Energy, he could see a Blue Aura covering the items and turned around as he searched for someone who could be using his energy to lift them.
He was disappointed when he couldn't find anyone in the area, he knew that the time had come and used his Mirage Eyes as everything in the area came into his vision. As soon as he used that, he was surprised to see 4 Men hiding on a nearby tree.
He didn't know that they were so close and mentally praised them as they didn't give out any signal that they were standing on the tree. Not a single mistake. Lin Yanluo didn't sense anything wrong and just continued to let the Cart move forwards.
