"Mr. Haruhiko, I won!!"
After the competition ended, Mitsui Mitsui rushed to Fangzheng excitedly and shook his hand.
"I won, I actually won!! This is the first time I've won the championship … "
Mitsui Mitsui was so excited that she didn't know what to say. Fangzheng patted her on the shoulder and motioned for her to calm down.
"So you see, this is how it is. It's actually very simple, isn't it? As long as you perform at your normal level, those people won't be your match. "
"Yes!!!"
Mitsui Mitsui nodded excitedly when she heard Fangzheng's words.
"I'll do my best!!!"
With Mitsui Mitsui's outstanding performance, the third day of the competition quickly came to an end.
Among them, Fangzheng won both the "Surfing Race" and "Icicle Attack and Defense" in the men's group. Icicle Attack and Defense was a piece of cake for Fangzheng. He walked onto the high platform, stretched out his hand, and the icicles in front of his opponent instantly shattered. The whole process took less than three seconds. No one could stop Fangzheng.
As for the female team, with the help of Fangzheng's light elemental magic, Mitsui Suika unexpectedly won the regular season's "Surfing Race", while the "Icicle Attack and Defense" was won by the second year Chiyoda Hanin.
So far, the first three days of the regular competition had officially ended, and Yichiko High had won all the competitions.
The situation seemed to be developing in a direction that the other eight schools did not want to see, but there was nothing they could do to stop it from happening.
But the other schools did not give up just yet. After all, they would never allow Yichiko High to win all the competitions.
Their only hope was the newcomer competition starting on the fourth day.
To be more precise, it was the newcomer competition for the women's group.
In the men's group, almost everyone had given up.
Because so far, whether it was "Precision Shooting", "Surfing Race", or "Icicle Attack and Defense", Fangzheng had shown overwhelming strength. Under such circumstances, it was impossible for the freshmen to compete with him in this aspect.
The only thing that stood a chance against Fangzheng was the decoding of the Secret Monument.
It also had something to do with the feature of the Secret Monument Decoding. It was the only competitive event among the six events that allowed face-to-face confrontations. To put it simply, the two combatants would be divided into two squads, each consisting of three people. They would then fight on a random map. On the map, a black coded stone tablet would be placed at the starting point of each team.
There were two ways to win by deciphering the secret stele. The first way was for the team to protect their own stele, then activate the other team's stele and enter the 512-digit password to win. The other way was to completely defeat the opposing team and automatically win.
Although Fangzheng did have unimaginably powerful strength, he was only one person. Moreover, the tournament did not allow the use of overly dangerous magic. Therefore, if there was a chance to defeat this guy, the only option was to decode the secret tablet.
And the one who had the highest chance to defeat Fangzheng was …
"You should understand that you are our … No, the only hope of the eight universities."
Walking beside Yichou Hui, a boy with short black hair who looked like a middle school student said in a low voice with a solemn expression. He was a good friend of Ichijō Shouki, and also a rather outstanding celebrity — Shinehiro Yoshizuji. At the age of thirteen, he was a genius sorcerer who discovered one of the "basic codes" that only existed in hypotheses. Not only was he smart, but he was also very powerful. He was also one of the members of Ichijō Shoki's team who participated in the "decoding of the secret tablet".
"What do you think of that man? George? "
Ichijō Shoki looked at Shingo and asked softly without changing his expression. The latter shook his head.
"To be honest, I can't see through him. The magic he uses is beyond my expectations. To be honest, I personally don't want to fight him face to face. He doesn't look like a human at all. He's more like a terrifying beast. The only thing we can do now is to use the "decoding of the secret tablet" collar to restrain this beast's power. "
"Even you can't see through his power?"
Hearing this, Ichijō Shoki was somewhat surprised, while Shingo lowered his head.
"The only thing we can be sure of is that he's probably very good at ancient magic."
The "ancient magic" that Shingo was talking about referred to the magic that appeared before the system of magic in this world, such as Yin-Yang magic, Taoist magic, magic, immortal magic, and other kinds of power that were passed down from ancient times to the present. After the system of magic was established, the people of this world discovered that the power they possessed actually existed in the past, but it had become more common now.
Therefore, for convenience's sake, all the magic before the modernization of magic was referred to as "ancient magic".
The difference between ancient magic and modern magic was that the former did not require CAD. Instead, like in the legends, spells were cast through spells such as summoning spirits and chanting spells. The biggest feature of ancient magic was that it had all kinds of abilities. For example, flying magic was still an unsolvable problem for modern magic, but flying magic was not uncommon in ancient magic.
However, the biggest flaw of ancient magic was that it could not be popularized. Only a very small number of "chosen ones" could use it. Modern magic, on the other hand, could be used by anyone with CAD and a certain amount of magic power.
But …..
"Don't ancient magic usually take a long time to activate?"
This was what Ichijō Shoki was most puzzled about. Ancient magic did have all kinds of magical powers, but their characteristic was that they took a long time to activate, at least much slower than modern magic that was assisted by CAD.
And Fangzheng's magic activation speed was not only beyond the scope of CAD, but even beyond the limits of human beings ….
"I don't know about that. That man is unfathomable. Frankly speaking, I don't want to observe him at all."
"Why is that?"
Compared to Fangzheng's strength, Ichijō Shoki was more surprised by his companion's reaction, because Shingo had always been observing every opponent very seriously in an attempt to obtain information. He once said that no matter what kind of opponent he faced, if he did not observe them carefully, he would not discover anything. But what he said just now was completely contrary to his belief.
Not only that, Ichijō Shoki could also hear some fear and disgust in Shingo's tone.
"Because he's not human at all."
Shingo Hongo raised his head and replied without hesitation.
"Everything he did was completely beyond the scope of what humans can do and understand. Just looking at him, I feel like my long-held beliefs have been completely shattered. The data I've always believed in seems to be fake, the knowledge I've learned has betrayed me, and my thoughts only prove that I'm shallow …. No, he's shown me more than I've ever learned. That's not what I want to know …. I don't want to know that ….!!! "
"George!"
Ichijō Shoki hurriedly shouted when he saw Shingo getting agitated. Only then did Shingo, who had almost fallen into an agitated state, return to his senses.
"I-I'm sorry, Shoki …."
Shingo came back to his senses and let out a long sigh.
"Are you really okay?"
Ichijō Shoki looked at his friend worriedly. It was the first time he had seen Shingo show such a hysterical reaction.
"I'm sorry, I … I'm just too tired."
Shingo shook his head and cast aside the inexplicable feeling of irritation and whispers in his head. He forced a smile at Ichijō Shoki.
"Maybe I'm just too nervous. After all, the newcomer competition starts tomorrow …."
"Do you want to go back and rest?"
"No."
Shingo shook his head and looked at the dining hall in front of him.
"I'm fine."
After saying that, he walked into the dining hall with Ichijō Shoki.
The dining hall was currently crowded with people. In fact, every dinner time was basically a friendship dinner. When Ichijō Shoki walked into the dining hall, he naturally saw Fangzheng standing on the other side.
He's still the same.
Ichijō Shoki frowned slightly as he looked around. Ever since the first day of the competition, he had noticed that the man named Haruhino did not fit in with the others. It was the same in the dining hall. The friendship dinner was supposed to be a place for people to communicate and improve their friendship, but in fact, almost all the students — especially the boys — kept their distance from Fangzheng.
On one hand, it was because of jealousy. After all, Fangzheng would always be surrounded by a lot of girls at the dinner. Of course, the most important reason was — — the competition.
To be honest, after Fangzheng showed his strength, there was basically no more suspense in the competition. Therefore, the greatest evil in the hearts of these contestants was that the audience would not come to watch the competition because there was no more suspense.
However, to their surprise, although there were indeed some audience members who did not come to watch the competition, there were still quite a number of audience members who came to watch. The most depressing thing was that these audience members were all female, and they all came to cheer for Fangzheng!!!
What made the contestants even more depressed was that among the audience members who cheered for Fangzheng, other than the students from No.1 High School and passersby, there were also students from other high schools participating in the newcomer competition and the female competition. Of course, in order to avoid suspicion, they would not wear their school uniforms and would enter the competition in their private clothes — — but what's the point of deceiving oneself? Do you think that we can't see the way your heart palpitates when you see a handsome guy blush?!!
Under such circumstances, it was only natural that the boys from other high schools would be filled with hostility toward Fangzheng.
Can you do whatever you want just because you're handsome?
If Fangzheng knew what these boys were thinking, he would tell them — — Sorry, you can do whatever you want just because you're handsome.
Bite me if you're not convinced.
Apart from that … …
"Ah, as expected, these two are together today."
Ichijō Shoki's heart skipped a beat when he heard Shingo's words. He looked up and saw Sibo Shenxue standing quietly beside Fangzheng. He had to admit that the two of them looked like a match made in heaven. This was another reason why the boys didn't dare to approach Fangzheng. Although they all wanted to talk to the beautiful Sibo Shenxue, it was a different matter when they were next to Fangzheng.
If they didn't want to embarrass themselves in front of a beautiful girl, it was better to stay away.
Of course, there were exceptions.
"It's that guy again."
Sensing Ichijō Shoki's gaze on Sibo Shenxue, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows and whispered to Sibo Shenxue.
"Hey, Sibo, your follower is here again."
"Again?"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Sibo Shenxue sighed helplessly. Although she was always the center of attention, Ichijō Shoki's attention was a different matter. For Sibo Shenxue, she didn't want to have too much contact with the Ichijō Shoki. On one hand, Sibo Shenxue was deeply in love with her brother and had no interest in other men. On the other hand, Sibo Shenxue wanted to hide her identity, so she didn't want to receive the attention of the Ichijō Family.
"If he's annoying, just drive him away."
"Eh? Is that okay? "
"What's wrong with that?"
Fangzheng sneered and handed the cup to Sibo Shenxue.
"The heir of the Ichijō Family doesn't even dare to come up and talk to a beautiful girl. He only dares to peep from afar. What's the difference between him and a stalker? He should be taught a lesson. A toad wanting to eat swan meat is a dream come true."
As he spoke, Fangzheng walked out of the crowd and walked towards Ichijō Shoki. Seeing this scene, everyone in the restaurant shifted their attention to the two of them. In any case, the Ichijō Family, where Ichijō Shoki was from, was the ruler of the Toshimi Clan and the supreme existence in the world of magic. Fangzheng had also shown unparalleled and unimaginably powerful strength in the Nine Schools Tournament. No one could imagine what would happen if the two of them clashed.
Seeing Fangzheng walking towards him, Ichijō Shoki frowned and stood there waiting for him. Soon, Fangzheng came to Ichijō Shoki and stared at the man in front of him with a smile on his face.
"Hello, young master of the Ichijō Family. This is the first time I've greeted you, right?"
"Hello, classmate Harukino. My name is Ichijō Shoki."
Compared to Fangzheng, Ichijō Shoki was obviously more cautious in his greeting.
"May I ask why you're looking for me?"
"That's for sure."
Hearing Ichijō Shoki's question, Fangzheng chuckled.
"The newcomer's competition starts tomorrow, right? If I remember correctly, your young master will also appear in the Secret Monument Deciphering, right? I've always been curious about the strength of the young master of the Ichijō Family, who is known as the Bloodbath Prince."
Saying that, Fangzheng stretched out his hand and stared at Ichijō Shoki with a ferocious smile.
"Don't let me down, young master of the Ichijō Family. Let me see what kind of ability the Ichijō Family has to stand at the top of the world of magic."
"…"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, everyone in the restaurant was stunned.
