Shoujo Grand Summoning

Chapter 1289: Different reactions, different declarations

Boom boom boom

The fireworks lit up the sky.

"YEEAAHHH!!!"

Excited laughter filled the place.

The weather is clear and sunny.

It is a good day to host an event.

Students gathered at the main sports track in their riding uniforms. They had their Pals as they lined up neatly for the event.

"OHHH!!!"

There are also countless students in the spectator stands. They were here to watch the event or cheer for their friends. Naturally, the elation can be felt.

The Aries Dragon Riding Festival is like spring break for these students. Although most of them aren't joining the event directly, they were here to enjoy the mood and have a good time.

Standing on the two sides are instructors and proctors. They are here to make sure the event runs smoothly. They are also here to prevent external interference. Wu Yan, Silvia, and Rebecca stood near the announcer's podium.

Wu Yan looked like he was already tired.

"Why am I here again? Silvia is the representative of the runners, no?"

"Indeed, the valedictorian usually gets picked to speak..."

Rebecca conceded.

Silvia chimed in.

"You used an Asia to beat my Maestro, this is why you're here. In fact, you should have been chosen instead of me."

"No, Princess, you think too much."

Rebecca said.

"Even if you lost the duel, you're still no.1 in your grade. Battle results don't determine all your grades."

"And?"

Wu Yan pointed at himself.

"I just enrolled like, two days ago. Why am I standing here? The students are going to throw eggs at me!"

"Oh, please, you're already as famous as Princess Silvia."

Rebecca teased him.

"Although it was me who nominated you."

"Ah, so it was you?!"

"Oops, we don't have much time."

Rebecca got up to the podium.

"President!"

"President Rebecca!"

"Yeah, it's President Rebecca!"

The students called her name out. It was almost like fans yelling the name of their idols during a concert.

"Good morning, everyone."

Rebecca addressed the student body with her commanding voice. The students piped down but they are still passionate to hear what she has to say.

She is the idol of the school.

Rebecca started talking.

"Today is the day of the Aries Dragon Riding Festival. As the president and main organizer of this event, I am incredibly honored to stand here and give a speech."

Rebecca roamed her gaze over the stadium.

"This event isn't just a sports event. It is a valiant tradition passed down from generation to generation. It is the cultural fabric of Ansullivan Dragonar Academy and Ansullivan city. As you all know, the winner will be recorded in official records and afforded academic credits. But, since you all volunteered to participate, I will offer the prize personally to the winner."

Rebecca grinned.

"Having said that, some of you might not think much of the prize provided. As such, I will offer the winner a special bonus prize."

"Bonus prize?"

The students flinched.

Rebecca declared with a smile.

"The winner of the Aries Dragon Riding Festival will win the right to go on a date. The partner of this date shall be none other than me, Rebecca Randall!"

The students went silent.

The students stared as the president just offered to go on a date with the winner of this race. They couldn't believe their ears.

"OHHH!!!"

The place immediately exploded in cheers so loud it verged on pandemonium.

"Quiet!"

Rebecca calmed the students down.

Wu Yan praised her charisma and ability to control the crowd.

"Now, I will be passing the time to the racers' representative, Silvia Lautreamont of Year 1!"

Silvia also stepped forward.

Wu Yan started furrowing his brows.

There was a heavy air of silence.

Silvia used her frosty voice with the students.

"In any event, one must always strive to present the best result. That is the principle of the Lautreamont Family. That is all."

Silvia got down from the stage. The students sighed.

Some of them started whispering.

"Sheesh, what a stuck-up bitch." ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

"Yeah, she's not even that good. Lancelot is just carrying her."

"Are all royals this obnoxious?"

"What a pariah."

Wu Yan locked his deep red eyes on Silvia who placed an ice barrier around herself.

"Next, the famous newbie, Rowan Randall!"

Wu Yan inhaled deeply before taking the stage.

Wu Yan called Silvia out when he was near her.

"I don't like this 'you'."

Silvia stopped a second. Her expression turned complex.

Wu Yan looked at the smiling president before turning to the crowd.

"Well, I am not good at giving long boring speeches."

Wu Yan grinned.

"Catch me if you can, I will answer the request of anyone that can catch me. But, I won't be going easy so you better bring your a-game..."

The students went quiet for a minute. Then, they roared in excitement and passion.

Although he sounded cocky, those words were just the taunt the students needed to ignite their competitive spirits.

Silvia watched how the crowd responded to Wu Yan. She reflected on what Wu Yan said without saying a word.
