Another boy nudged his arm, comforting him, "Don't be discouraged, your opponent was Emma, after all."

Victor's expression stiffened, and he felt even worse.

Dark Demon killed the match.

The dejected Victor and the despairing Robert turned into petrified statues in the wind.

But the atmosphere of the competition was heated up by the activity of Victor and Emma.

Third round, 20 to 10.

The original four groups competing simultaneously became two groups competing at the same time.

When Dark stepped onto the field again, a crowd of young girls quickly gathered outside.

These young girls were mainly from the Noble House, but there were also students from the other three academies mixed in.

Especially the young girls from the Magister House, who lacked any resistance to a classmate who was good at studying, self-disciplined, handsome, and seemed to have walked right out of a book.

Of course, they were still in those innocent years where even a touch of the fingertips would make them shy for a long time; they were simply attracted to him.

In the arena.

Dark looked at the Knight Academy student opposite him, and this time, he still didn't give his opponent any chance.

Although this lacked any entertainment value, such a clean and swift victory still had a unique flavor of its own.

Fourth round, 10 to 5.

There were still no exceptions.

Third round, 5 to 3.

The five contestants were Dark and Diana from the Noble House, Emma from the Knight Academy, and Sara Swati and another male student from the Magister House.

Among them, Dark was lucky enough to receive a bye, leaving the two Magister House students to face Diana and Emma respectively.

As it turned out, neither of the two Magister House students could overcome the high walls.

Sara Swati from the Magister House displayed great strength, but she still couldn't defeat Emma and lost with regret.

The other boy was crushed by Diana's violence!

Fourth round, 3 to 2.

This time, the one favored by the Goddess of Luck was Diana.

Therefore, the semi-final would take place between Dark and Emma!

Although this was only a 3-to-2 semi-final, in the eyes of the students from the Knight Academy and the Noble House, it was the final!

The final that would decide whether the champion would be from the Knight Academy or the Noble House!

This clash of the titans attracted everyone's attention.

Even Victor and Robert, who had almost weathered away, came back to life!

No matter how many complaints they had about Emma, they still stood on the side of the Knight Academy.

And under the gaze of all the students from the four academies, Professor Jones personally took the field to serve as the referee.

Dark and Emma entered the arena respectively and stood at their contestant positions.

Duelists could draw cards during the preparation phase, and both Dark and Emma held their only Magic Phantom Beast in their hands.

There wasn't much expression on Dark's face.

Emma, however, was clearly a bit nervous.

"Dark Demon!"

Emma suddenly gathered her courage and spoke.

Although Dark was puzzled, he still gave her his attention.

But Emma gritted her teeth, and in the end, she only blurted out one sentence: "I won't lose to you!"

Dark was startled in his heart, wanting to say: Have we ever had any interaction?

But in the end, he didn't say such words that would make someone lose face.

Dark: "I have seen your efforts."

Emma: "??"

"Save your words for after the match, keep your composure, and focus on the duel."

Professor Jones suddenly interrupted their exchange and began the countdown for the battle.

For this in-class tournament, both of them had brought her great surprises, and she was very curious to see who would emerge as the final victor.

Would it be Dark, who had advanced without suspense thanks to his superior Summoning Technique?

Or would it be Emma, who had made it this far by relying on two extra Magitech Cards?

Perhaps the joy of being a teacher lies in seeing students grow beyond all expectations!

With a light wave of her hand, a three-second countdown of fireworks appeared in the center of the arena!

3! 2! 1!

Start!

A race of total concentration!

Dark undoubtedly summoned his Magic Phantom Beast first.

But it was different from any other time before.

Eevee-chan did not immediately dash toward the opposite side; instead, it trotted to the center of the arena.

As Emma summoned her Magic Phantom Beast: Otter-chan at the 11.5-second mark, Eevee-chan stood on its hind legs and reached out a paw toward the otter.

The Otter-chan, with an intelligence level of 2.0, took a moment to react before letting out a series of "ying-ying-ying" cries at Eevee-chan!

"Bui!"

Eevee-chan reached out its paw and beckoned again.

Only then did the otter cautiously approach the center of the field.

The two Magic Spirits, both with 100 in magic attack and defense and similar in size, began a close-range standoff in the middle of the arena.

"Ying!"

The otter opened its mouth, letting out a threat!

"Bui?"

Eevee-chan tilted its head and used Cute Act.

The otter immediately grinned and began to giggle.

With that, Eevee-chan calmly walked past it, trotting with light, nimble steps toward Emma's Magitech Ball.

Emma was stunned for a moment before realizing that Dark had used a new Magitech Card!

"What kind of Magitech Card is this?"

Looking at Otter-chan, who was just giggling foolishly and had completely lost its combat capability, Emma's brain nearly crashed.

She certainly couldn't just sit there and wait for defeat.

She immediately drew her strongest card—the Golden Treasure Box!

With the "Gold Coin x3" rendered useless, only this Golden Treasure Box could bring her a glimmer of hope.

However, her Summoning Technique had a 15-second cooldown, and unlike Dark, who had compressed his cooldown to under 8 seconds, she still needed a moment to wait before she could use a new Magitech Card.

By the time her Summoning Technique cooldown finished, Eevee-chan had already pressed its paw onto the Magitech Ball—just like every time before!

"Slap!"

One paw.

The Magitech Ball's magic value -100.

"Slap!"

Another paw.

The Magitech Ball's magic value -100.

"Otter-chan, pull yourself together!"

Emma finally couldn't help but shout.

As if hearing her plea, the otter suddenly broke free from the psychedelic effect of the Happiness Card, and the moment it turned around, it spat out a Water Gun!

But Eevee-chan grabbed the Magitech Ball and held it in front as a shield.

"Bang!"

The Magitech Ball's magic value -100.

"Good chance!"

Emma immediately seized the opening and used her Summoning Technique to activate the Golden Treasure Box!

11.5 seconds later, a treasure box overflowing with gold appeared on the field!

But the Eevee-chan on the field had unknowingly puffed out its chest, its eyes filled with Pride.

When the Golden Treasure Box appeared before it, it merely gave a disdainful smirk, walked past it with elegant strides, and then slapped the Magitech Ball.

"Slap!"

The Magic Spirit power value of the Magitech Ball decreased by 100.

By the time the Otter recoiled, it had already raised its claws once again!

"Snap!"

There was still no head-on confrontation.

There was no slaughter between the Magic Spirits.

There were only the crisp "snap-snap" sounds that struck directly at the eardrums.

Dark ended the match without even needing to use Pride 2.

He recalled Eevee into its Magitech Card, placed it alongside the Happiness Card and Pride 1 into his card holder, and turned to leave the arena.

It was as if.

This semifinal duel was no different from the warm-up in the first match.

In fact, that was exactly the case.

The level of the first-year students was simply too low.

By the time Emma had used two Magitech Cards, he had already used three!

This made the duel seem entirely meaningless.

Because the entire process was so bizarre, the audience outside the arena did not even react in time.

It was not until he had left the field that sparse applause began to break out.

Then, the applause grew louder and louder.

It shook the entire stadium!
