Seeing the scene on the live stream, Mayumi Saegusa she wanted to disappear into the ground.
"This guy! He's just...!"
Mari Watanabe wanted to complain, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn't find a suitable word.
"He's a scoundrel!" Mayumi Saegusa chimed in, adding to Mari Watanabe.
"I think Liu Yunyi's actions weren't solely for provocation. It seems he's trying to deliberately provoke Ichijo. Could it be that Ichijo's strength is enough to threaten him?" Azusa Nakajo tried to explain Yunyi's behavior based on her understanding.
"No, I think this is revenge."
The next moment, Suzune Ichihara's calm voice overturned Azusa Nakajo's opinion.
"I think Liu Yunyi is getting revenge on the student council president because the president used underhanded methods to force him to participate in the competition, which is why things turned out this way."
"Hey, Rin! Please don't say things like that so seriously, it'll cause misunderstandings!" Mayumi Saegusa face turned bright red; she had almost been stabbed to death by Suzune Ichihara's knife.
While they were talking, the situation on the field had already changed.
Provoked by Yunyi like this, no opponent would tolerate it. At this moment, they no longer cared about winning or losing; they only wanted to teach this annoying guy a lesson.
The magic they unleashed with all their might, not only failed to hit Yunyi, but also vanished into nothingness during flight or upon completion, leaving not a Psions behind. Yunyi's forward steps were completely unaffected.
What's going on!?
The students from Fifth High School looked utterly bewildered. That was their strongest attack, unleashed with all their might! It vanished without a trace, not even a spark or a ripple!?
"Forget about it! Attack! Stop him at all costs!" another player shouted.
Hearing his words, the remaining two players from Fifth High School also came to their senses. They continued to manipulate CAD, releasing one spell after another to attack Yunyi. However, these attacks, as before, vanished without a trace.
The students from Fifth High School were quite determined. Despite several unsuccessful attacks, they didn't give up and continued their offensive. However, Yunyi had already walked up to them and was looking at the three of them with a mocking expression.
"What, your attack is over? So, is it my turn now?"
Seeing his expression, the three players from Fifth High School reluctantly stopped operating the CAD software. No matter how unwilling they were to admit defeat, they now understood that this guy was just toying with them! And they were powerless to change the situation.
Just as Yunyi was about to end the match, the siren signaling the end of the game sounded first. The large screen outside the arena already displayed the words "First High School has won."
"Huh? Can you surrender outside the arena?" Yunyi awkwardly lowered his raised arm and asked the player from Fifth High School in front of him.
"You bastard, don't get too cocky! Yitiao will definitely teach you a lesson!" The contestant glared fiercely at Yunyi.
Upon hearing his words, Yunyi was first taken aback, then shook his head and sighed.
"I mean, even if you're going to be stubborn, you should at least say something like 'I'll make you pay later,' instead of something like 'So-and-so will teach you a lesson.' You ruined my good mood with that! Seriously, how boring."
Yunyi's complaints made the players from the opposing Fifth High School blush with embarrassment.
With this round of competition over, First High School has already secured its place in the finals. Their opponent will be Third High School, led by Masaki Ichijo.
However, compared to the relaxed atmosphere at First High School, the atmosphere at Third High School was rather oppressive.
" Masaki, if it's a head-on confrontation, our chances of winning are probably not high."
After studying the terminal in his hand for an unknown amount of time, Shinkuro Kichijoji gave a disheartened conclusion.
Masaki Ichijo sat beside him, arms crossed, also pondering how to win. As for the other student, he had become dejected after watching the previous match. If it weren't for Masaki Ichijo and Shinkuro Kichijoji being there, he probably would have given up long ago.
" George, what's your opinion on that guy's actions in the last game?"
Suddenly, Masaki Ichijo asked a question.
"I think he's provoking us. Or rather, he's..."
"Are you kidding us?"
Shinkuro Kichijoji's unfinished sentence was picked up by Masaki Ichijo.
Recalling their first encounter with Yunyi, the guy had completely disregarded their status and mocked them. Now, his behavior during the competition made it hard for them not to believe that Yunyi was using a different method to torment them.
"Although it's a mockery, this will also be our opportunity. George, I'll keep that guy occupied. As for Tatsuya Shiba and Mikihiko Yoshida, you're in charge. We must win this battle!" Masaki Ichijo deep voice.
On the other side, in the logistics area of First High School.
Yunyi, who was the star of the last match, was fast asleep, leaning on Mayumi Saegusa's shoulder.
This guy claimed he was conserving his energy, but actually he just didn't want to face the strange looks he received from others.
Seeing Yunyi, so big and strong, leaning on Mayumi Saegusa's petite shoulder, many people in the logistics area were seething with envy. But Mayumi Saegusa herself seemed to quite enjoy it. Her joyful smile made Miyuki Shiba, standing nearby, extremely envious. Unfortunately, her brother was full of energy and showed no intention of taking a nap. So she had no chance to experience Mayumi Saegusa's feelings at that moment.
Unlike Yunyi and Tatsuya Shiba, Mikihiko Yoshida was not in the logistics area at this time. He went to the rooftop alone, saying he wanted to see the view of Mount Fuji.
The competition First High School and Third High School to Monolith Code the rookie tournament will not only determine the winner of this particular competition, but also the final results of the rookie tournament for both high schools.
The final venue for the match was a canyon, but unlike the previous match where Mikihiko Yoshida stole the show, this time the canyon was not shrouded in mist.
When the news reached Third High School, Shinkuro Kichijoji secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The canyon terrain offers two possible attack routes, one above and one below. Shinkuro Kichijoji believes that even if Yunyi is strong, he can only choose one of the routes to launch an attack, leaving the other route as an opening for them to maneuver.
" Masaki, this venue is advantageous to us!"
