An Unexpected Visitor

After the first round of preliminary rounds, news headlines almost exclusively revolved around the theme of the "Phoenix Star Martial Festival".

In the Battle City, whether residents or students, everyone opens their social media windows every day to either watch their favorite matches or browse the latest match news. The lively atmosphere can be clearly felt even on the streets.

Especially in the central area, the stages are filled with cheers every day, as if there is a concert every day. It's so lively that it's unimaginable.

That's why the Star Wars Festival is the most popular event in the world, bar none.

Under these circumstances, information and news targeting the contestants began to circulate.

Among them, those teams with a higher chance of winning the championship have become household names, occupying the top spots on major web pages and being talked about with great interest.

Fang Li and Cecily's team also fall into this category.

After all, in the subsequent match, Cecily simply stepped in, using a talisman to activate a lightning-based Star Immortal Technique, swiftly blasting her opponent away – it couldn't have been easier.

Furthermore, Cecily was the runner-up in the previous "Phoenix Star Martial Festival," so most people believed that Fang Li and Cecily had the strength to win the championship.

Fang Li, never made a move from beginning to end.

This made Fang Li's strength even more mysterious, and the title of "mysterious contestant" grew even more prominent, firmly attracting everyone's curiosity.

Not to mention, Fang Li had already revealed on the first day that he had been in contact with Sylvia.

The combination of these two factors has piqued the curiosity of countless people, who are constantly searching for information and data about Fang Li, all in an effort to unveil the mysterious veil surrounding Fang Li.

In view of this, although Fang Li was unknown before, his reputation afterward was no less than that of the popular contestants, and he often became the focus of people's conversations. It can be said that he was unintentionally successful.

And so, seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Today, Fang Li and Cecily faced off in the third round of the preliminary rounds.

After passing this preliminary round, Fang Li and Cecily will be able to advance to the main competition and enter the top 32.

This round of matches also did not last long.

Less than a minute into the match, Cecily used several talismans as a trigger to unleash several bolts of lightning, knocking her opponent down, who lay charred to the ground.

"The match is over. The winners are Fang Li and Cecily -Wang."

Amidst that mechanical announcement, the entire audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers, filling the live broadcast with exhilaration.

"The competition has reached the third round. This time, Royal Selection once again easily defeated his opponent, while Fang was just watching from the sidelines. Royal Selection's strength and Fang's mystery remain undiminished!"

"As a graduate of Jielong, I am truly proud of the outstanding performances of these two contestants. They truly deserve to be disciples of ' Myriad Heavenly Net '."

"Yes, yes, after this battle, both Fang and Royal Selection have successfully advanced to the main competition and entered the top 32. In the next competition, will we be able to see Royal Selection continue to show us his strong strength, and will we be able to see Fang's true strength?"

Let's wait and see.

And so, amidst the live broadcast and thunderous cheers, Fang Li and Cecily left the stage and entered the contestants' private passage.

"This boring preliminary round is finally over," Cecily said with enthusiasm. "The official tournament starts next round, and the opponents we face shouldn't be so boring anymore, right?"

"Personally, I would have preferred to just sit on the sidelines and watch without doing anything and still advance smoothly. But it probably won't be that easy from now on, right?" Fang Li shook his head with a chuckle, then opened the spatial window and browsed through it as he said, "Besides us, the third round of the preliminary rounds on the other stages has also ended, and many strong teams have successfully advanced to the main competition."

"Really?" Cecily asked immediately, "Then which teams are there?"

"Just as we expected, there weren't any major dark horses," Fang Li said. "There are a few pairs that we need to pay attention to, such as the pairing of Ayato Amagiri and Saya Sasamiya, the pairing of Julius and Kiririn Ditou, and the pairing of Ardy and Limshi, all of whom have successfully advanced to the main competition."

"I really want to have a good fight with them, especially the ' Blazing Flame Witch '." Cecily grinned and said to Fang Li, "What about you? Do you have anyone you'd like to fight?"

"Of course." Fang Li smiled and said, "If possible, I would like to have a match with Ayato Amagiri."

No matter what, he is the protagonist of the original work. Perhaps he is not the strongest in this year's "Phoenix Star Martial Festival", but in terms of luck, he is probably unmatched.

Kinji Touyama, for example, usually lacked motivation and later even left the Assault Department, but when they faced off against him again, Fang Li was still almost suppressed.

It's easy to imagine that once the protagonist's halo is cast, even Fang Li would find it difficult to win the championship.

Therefore, no matter what, Fang Li hopes to defeat Ayato Amagiri.

"I just don't know if things will go so smoothly."

During their conversation, Fang Li and Cecily passed through the players' tunnel and arrived at the press area. After dealing with the reporters briefly, they left immediately.

After leaving the venue, Fang Li and Cecily went straight back to the Realm Dragon.

Immediately afterward, Fang Li and Cecily parted ways.

Just as Fang Li was about to return to the Starry Sky, the surrounding space suddenly distorted, making Fang Li feel as if he had fallen into an abyss. He felt dizzy and disoriented before regaining his sense of solid ground.

However, at this moment, Fang Li was no longer in the corridor of the Huangchen Hall, but appeared in the audience room.

This situation startled Fang Li at first, and then he spoke helplessly.

"Master, if you need to find me, could you please use a more ordinary method to do so?"

Upon hearing this, Fan Xinglu, who was sitting in a wide chair, laughed and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I'm really anxious to ask you about that Ayato Amagiri."

"Ayato Amagiri?" Fang Li blinked and asked, "Could it be that Master is interested in him?"

"That's right, that's right." Fan Xinglu said with delight, "That kid is very interesting. He seems to be hiding something. I'm very curious about it."

In other words, Fan Xinglu had her eye on Ayato Amagiri's talent.

Just as Fang Li Fang Li about to say something, Fan Xinglu suddenly narrowed her eyes.

"It seems that someone unexpected has come to visit."

As soon as Fan Xinglu finished speaking, the atmosphere around them changed abruptly.
