On the first day of competition, First High took the championship by an overwhelming margin.
Then came the second day's event: "Crowd Ball Point Scoring."
The rules of "Crowd Ball Point Scoring" were somewhat similar to tennis, except the balls were served by machines. Both sides had to use magic to strike the balls into the other side's court, with victory determined by the number of successful hits. Unlike one-on-one sports like tennis or badminton, however, the number of balls fired by the machines gradually increased. One ball was added every twenty seconds, up to a maximum of nine balls.
Thus, this event tested magical control, precision, and speed. Whoever could control the most balls with magic and send them into the opponent's court to score points would win.
And naturally, the outcome was obvious.
No matter how hard the opposing contestants tried against Fang Zheng, not a single ball they struck even made it past the halfway line, let alone landed in Fang Zheng's court. On Fang Zheng's side, meanwhile, a casual wave of his hand made the balls seem to vanish into thin air, only to appear directly in the opponent's half, bounce back, and then get sent flying out again by Fang Zheng...
So a score like 100:0 was only to be expected.
Thus, Fang Zheng and Mayumi Nanase once again claimed the championship in the second day's "Crowd Ball Point Scoring," sweeping the entire field.
The other schools could no longer sit still. One after another, they approached the competition committee in protest. This time, they were no longer accusing Fang Zheng of cheating. Instead, they demanded that the committee bar Fang Zheng from participating in the rookie division!!
Their reasoning was perfectly sound. Even their own second- and third-year upperclassmen had been beaten like dogs
