Top Ten

The burning sensation on the back of the left hand is naturally a problem with the "yellow mark".

In this situation, it's impossible for the mysterious Yellow Robe to appear.

The burning sensation subsided quickly, seemingly serving as a warning.

"It seems... Demps's concerns were justified. These lawmakers have ulterior motives and might try to take matters into their own hands during today's final match."

If I were to withdraw from the finals directly, I would also be met with suspicion from the councilors.

They will continue to target me through various means in the future, so it's better to eliminate their doubts here.

As long as you're not the first one to step onto the stage, you can carefully observe the 'strange things' about the ring.

Han Dong and Demps Eye Contact a glance and reached an agreement.

All thirteen Knight Order were present, but only Commander Hugo from the Whisper Knight Order attended; the rest had gone back to work overtime.

"Based on the scores from yesterday's semi-finals, and with some special opinions from the thirteen team leaders, I will now announce the top ten list for this Knight Selection."

The scores for the semi-finals must be kept confidential, and the rankings are not in any particular order.

Students whose names are called, please step onto the ' Raw Stone Arena ' for the final battle.

"1. The most insane beast in this year's Knight Selection - Abel Raine."

Being called out means being selected into the top ten.

They will actively choose which Knight Order to join based on their "rank" and enjoy special privileges.

When Abel stepped onto the stage as the first of the top ten, he received cheers from the entire arena.

At this moment, the painful memories that had haunted Abel's mind faded, and everything felt worthwhile.

"2. The red demon from the Depths of Hell, Sean Naberius."

There's no doubt that Devil Boy was selected.

Even Though Shawn lost, his opponent was the number one draft pick from ten years ago... The 'micro-control of power' that Shawn displayed is something no graduate can do.

"3. Winry Austin, the blacksmith's daughter whose body is comparable to the armor of fate."

Wow! I was selected!

Winry's performance was rather average, but her opponent was the commander of the Hummingbird Guard.

Its physical defenses were extraordinary, and the guild leaders later added bonus points for its blacksmithing skills.

Wenli had secretly obtained a high-level blacksmith certificate, and there were no more than a hundred blacksmiths in the Holy City who held such a certificate.

"4. Mysterious and unpredictable, like a deadly rose in the night, Diana Epsilon."

This Miss Diana was the Underground Students, in the same semi-final round as Abel, unexpectedly defeated the knight in an instant... Her face was veiled by a cloak, so her features were still hidden.

However, before the student went on stage, he seemed to glance at Han Dong through his cloak.

In this situation...

Mia immediately grabbed her man's arm and glared at the woman with hostility.

"Don't even think about stealing my man..."

Mia could accept the idea of a woman vying for Han Dong's attention.

However, Mia would absolutely not allow any member of the opposite sex to have any feelings for Han Dong.

"5. Demps Martin, hailed as the most magically promising Newcomer in the library in the last thirty years, an all-around genius who can still switch to melee combat even when facing magic nemesis."

When Demps's name was mentioned.

He immediately made a gesture of reaching out to adjust the bronze mirror, seemingly using some kind of mechanism to further conceal the ' Sixth Finger '.

She successfully stepped onto the strange Raw Stone Arena, her body showing no particular reaction, and secretly gave Han Dong an OK sign.

"6. Mia Seminovich, a witch who possesses a strange and little-known sword technique."

As soon as Mia took the stage, she rushed to the central assembly area, eager to see what kind of shameless person was flirting with her man.

"7. The Undead who created the longest arena match in the history of the Knight Tournament - Iguva Masarazi".

A graduate, shrouded in a special cloak from which no features could be discerned, slowly stepped onto the arena, his movements as unsteady as a zombie's, as he made his way to the center of the ring.

"8. Brian Green, a weapon master who is proficient in more than ten weapons and can perfectly switch weapons according to the rhythm of battle and the defensive characteristics of the opponent."

This student is a graduate of the Crusader Academy of the Royal Knights Academy. He performed reasonably well, holding his own against a knight, but compared to the other students who defeated knights, he was not particularly outstanding.

His bronze-colored body, which is over 1.9 meters tall, is equipped with his unique "Weapon Compendium".

He strode onto the stage.

He seems to be a very interesting graduate.

"9. A special student suspected of deliberately holding back his strength in the semi-finals and intentionally controlling his score to just reach the top ten passing mark, Gulli Chaldea."

"Huh!? Controlling the line?"

This introduction immediately attracted the attention of First Year people.

This is no ordinary exam where you just need to score 60 points to barely pass... Because all students' test scores are kept confidential, getting into the top ten is not something a 'genius' can achieve.

We need to conduct a completely objective and detailed observation of every match in the semi-finals before we dare to implement 'score control'.

"This person... is very strong! Being able to control the line means that he has an absolutely perfect observation and evaluation of the performance of the fifty students."

Then, he used the strength corresponding to tenth place to complete the semi-finals, never completely hiding his true strength.

How did this guy do that?

Han Dong had watched all the matches, but he had very little impression of this person's matches...

This is Gulli Chalidu, a male student who is wrapped in a fur coat.

Only a pair of rather indifferent eyes were visible, and he was wearing a pair of tall leather boots...

However, Han Dong still managed to see some inhuman details.

Hidden among his brown, fluffy hair were several delicate Steel Nails driven into his skull.

"Completely concealing their presence, not revealing any observable details... This final seems to be anything but simple."

Han Dong silently kept this student in his heart.

Next, it was finally time to announce the last of the top ten finalists.

"10. The most unexpected graduate, able to face death and complete the test of death. A special student from the Mysticism Department, Valen Nicholas."

Han Dong glanced at the Death God Commander in the audience in the distance, nodded slightly, and stepped onto the arena.

Everything is normal.

Han Dong arrived at the center of the arena.

The finals of this year's Knight Tournament have officially begun.

The rules are very simple: the final rankings of the ten finalists are determined through the most basic 1v1 gladiator format.

The lottery box floated down again.

Ten students need to draw a slip of paper from the list, and those with the same pattern can match it themselves.

"Pattern matching... Besides matching opponents, perhaps these patterns have other meanings?"
