An Opponent to Watch Out For

Julius Irexia von Risfeldt.

In some ways, this girl is more famous Sylvia.

The reason is simple: this girl is a real princess.

Since the Falling Star Rain, the world order has undergone tremendous changes. In addition to the significant weakening of national systems, which have been replaced by Integrated Enterprise Conglomerate, monarchies have been restored in parts of Europe under the manipulation of these Integrated Enterprise Conglomerate.

Among these is a monarchical country called the Kingdom of Lizantania.

The "Blazing Flame Witch" is the first princess of this kingdom, a true princess.

So, in some ways, this witch is more famous than the rare songstress.

Of course, this didn't feel very real to Fang Li, so he didn't have any particular thoughts about it.

However, Fang Li was still somewhat surprised.

Because, in the original work, this princess did not team up with Kiririn Ditou; her partner was someone else.

However, here, Kiririn Ditou became the princess's partner and participated in the "Phoenix Star Martial Festival" together, which was quite Fang Li.

"Is it because of me?"

Just as this thought arose in Fang Li's mind, Zhao Hufeng's words confirmed it.

"Because you dueled and won against ' Gale Blade Thunder,' causing her uncle's plan to rise to power to fail and leading to his abandonment, this top-ranked student at the Star Guidance Academy seems to have gone through a period of considerable unease and confusion," Zhao Hufeng said. "And it was at this time that ' Blazing Flame Witch ' appeared."

According to information gathered by the Student Council, it seems that Her Highness learned about Kiririn Ditou's situation by chance, so she approached Kiririn Ditou and invited her to participate in the "Phoenix Star Martial Festival".

Therefore, this partnership was successfully formed.

"Is it just a coincidence?" Fang Li suddenly seemed to be thinking about something, and then chuckled, "I really hope it's just a coincidence."

The reason why that princess knew about Kiririn Ditou was probably because of Claudia, right?

After all, the person who indirectly, or even directly, caused Kiririn Ditou to end up in this situation was Claudia, who made Kiririn Ditou fight Fang Li.

Claudia, being the Student Council President of the Star Guidance Academy, couldn't just stand by and watch Kiririn Ditou, a student with both talent and potential, lose her way.

Therefore, it's highly likely that Claudia orchestrated this event to some extent, ultimately leading to Julius and Kiririn Ditou becoming partners.

"Regardless, Kiririn Ditou is indeed a formidable opponent," Zhao Hufeng said earnestly. "In this year's Phoenix Star Martial Festival, Kiririn Ditou is the only contestant ranked first in the rankings, and her partner is that ' Blazing Flame Witch.' You must be careful."

Upon hearing this, before the others could even express their opinions, Cecily smiled.

"I think this is a good opportunity," Cecily said, clenching her fists, as if finally bursting with enthusiasm. "I've long wanted to have a proper match with a top-tier witch like the ' Blazing Flame Witch.'"

Just as the Daoist priests of the Water Faction see the boxers of the Wood Faction as people of low aptitude who cannot even learn the Star Immortal Technique, in the eyes of outsiders, the Star Immortal Technique is merely a technique that allows a certain group of Star Pulse Generation to acquire abilities similar to witches and Magus, and is not comparable to natural-born witches and Magus.

Under these circumstances, Cecily, as the leader of the Water Faction, always wanted to compete with those powerful witches and prove the power of Star Immortal Technique.

Now, Julius's appearance seems to have truly ignited Cecily's fighting spirit, making this leader of the Water Faction somewhat fired up.

"I'd love to spar with ' Gale Blade Thunder ' and see just how powerful the Ditou Style swordsmanship, which even my master praised, really is," Zhao Hufeng said eagerly. "If I have the chance, I'll definitely ask her for some pointers."

Both Cecily and Zhao Hufeng possessed the inherent nature of martial arts practitioners.

Fan Xinglu just laughed at her two disciples' performance, while the Li Siblings seemed unimpressed.

For this brother and sister who enjoy toying with their opponents, pursuing powerful rivals is simply incomprehensible. The best way to win is to strike at their opponent's weaknesses.

As for Fang Li, while others were immersed in their own thoughts, he had already opened the information of another team and looked at one of them.

A boy wearing the uniform of the Star Guidance Academy High School, with a slightly relaxed expression on his face, giving off a silly vibe.

Cecily leaned over to take a look and then exclaimed in confusion.

Who is this person?

Cecily's words drew everyone's attention to the spatial window in front of Fang Li.

Looking at the photos that appeared in the spatial view, everyone became suspicious.

"What's wrong?" Even Fan Xinglu seemed puzzled and asked directly, "Is he someone you know?"

"Should I say he's an acquaintance?" Fang Li didn't look away, still staring at the person, and said with a smile, "I can only say that he's an opponent we need to be wary of."

"A competitor we need to be wary of?" Everyone was stunned.

Zhao Hufeng even opened the information and said in an even more puzzled tone, "This person seems to be a first-year student at the Star Guidance Academy's high school. He is not ranked and has never participated in any duels since entering Star Guidance Hall, so his record is zero."

Upon hearing this, both the Li Siblings couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Outside the rankings?" Li Shenyun said sarcastically, "You need to be wary of this kind of opponent?"

"Zero win rate?" Li Shenhua said with almost the same tone, as if smirking, "A student who hasn't even had a duel before? You need to be wary of this kind of opponent?"

Immediately, the brother and sister's somewhat harsh laughter rang out at the same time, causing Zhao Hufeng to frown.

Fang Li glanced at the Li Siblings and said indifferently, "I am also outside the rankings. Since entering the Realm Dragon, I have never experienced a single duel. Therefore, if you two senior brothers and sisters encounter me in the competition, you must regard me as an opponent you do not need to pay attention to."

The laughter of the Li Siblings came to an abrupt halt.

"Heh heh?" Fan Xinglu said with great interest, "So, this person is very strong?"

"I suppose so," Fang Li said. "At least, she should be a bit more troublesome than Kiririn Ditou."

"The Star Guidance Hall actually has someone like this?" Fan Xinglu immediately turned to Zhao Hufeng and asked curiously, "Hufeng, what's this person's name?"

The answer to this question was not from Zhao Hufeng, but from Fang Li.

"His name is Ayato Amagiri."

"A swordsman who keeps his skills hidden."
