"Alright, alright everyone, stop teasing Tatsuya-kun. Let's watch the game."
At Mayumi Saegusa's urging, Yunyi and the others stopped their attack on Tatsuya Shiba and turned their attention back to the match.
"By the way, President, good luck in the afternoon's competition." Miyuki Shiba, Honoka Mitsui, and Shizuku Kitayama, who were also contestants, offered their blessings to Mayumi Saegusa, who had just taken her seat, before the competition began.
Mayumi Saegusa smiled and accepted, raising her little fist as if making a vow. "This is the last year, I will definitely win."
As a result, Yunyi then started to undermine Mayumi Saegusa's performance.
"With your skill level, even if you give your opponents a ten-second advantage, they probably still won't win. Victory is too easy for you."
"Oh? Then what do you want me to do, Yunyi-kun?" Mayumi Saegusa wasn't angry; she blinked and looked at Yunyi.
"If you can win the competition before your opponent reaches a quarter of the score, I'll teach you Flight Magic, how about it?" Yunyi suggested.
"But didn't Taurus Silver of FLT already publish the formula for a general-purpose Flight Magic? If needed, I can use that, there's no need to learn yours Yunyi-kun." Mayumi Saegusa wasn't so easily fooled. She looked at Yunyi with a teasing expression, seemingly waiting for his next words.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Congratulations, Mr. Silver, right, Tatsuya?" Yunyi nudged Tatsuya Shiba beside him with his elbow.
Tatsuya Shiba nodded expressionlessly, but inside he felt as if he had been trampled over by some kind of creature.
"In that case, the Flight Magic won't work." Yunyi rubbed his chin, pretending to think, before finally speaking, "How about we change the condition? As long as you can do it, I'll grant you one request. As long as it's within my capabilities, I won't refuse."
" Yunyi-kun, you said it yourself!" Mayumi Saegusa's face was full of smiles. She actually just wanted to have a little tug-of-war with Yunyi, but she didn't expect to get such a result.
"You seem quite confident," Yunyi asked with a smile.
Mayumi Saegusa gave a soft hum and did not answer Yunyi's question.
The two didn't lower their voices, so everyone around them could hear them.
As a participant in the Speed Shooting rookie tournament, Shizuku Kitayama simulated the competition format of the main event and immediately realized how difficult it would be to achieve her goal.
"Shizuku? What's wrong?" Honoka Mitsui, sitting next to Shizuku Kitayama, asked in confusion.
"It's nothing," Shizuku Kitayama shook her head.
Just as Honoka Mitsui was about to press for more information, the countdown for the match began.
" Honoka, let's watch the match first." Shizuku Kitayama changed the subject, drawing Honoka Mitsui's attention back to the game.
As the blue indicator light came on, the quarterfinals of the Battle Board officially began.
With Mari Watanabe's skills, it's impossible for her to falter in the quarterfinals. The Battle Board competition will not take place until tomorrow.
Tatsuya Shiba explaining the magic Mari Watanabe used to Leo and the others, while Yunyi leaned impatiently on Mayumi Saegusa's shoulder. He was already annoyed by the continuous shouts from Mari Watanabe's fans behind him.
"I'm sorry, Yunyi-kun, I forgot you don't like these kinds of occasions." Looking at the expression on her boyfriend's face, Mayumi Saegusa said apologetically.
Yunyi shook his head. He did not like this kind of occasion, but he did not come here to watch the game. He was just here to accompany Mayumi Saegusa.
Thinking of this, he cast a sound-blocking spell on his ear. With the help of this spell, he no longer had to endure the shouts of the enthusiastic fans behind him. However, this spell also blocked the voices of Tatsuya Shiba and the others, forcing him to lean against Mayumi Saegusa's shoulder and wait for the match to end.
Remembering that Yunyi disliked these kinds of occasions, Mayumi Saegusa pulled him away after Mari Watanabe's competition ended. Of course, no one would say anything if she left first. After all, she was also a participant in the Speed Shooting competition. And all the Speed Shooting competitions were scheduled for this afternoon. So it was understandable that Mayumi Saegusa went to prepare for the competition.
After leaving the arena, Yunyi followed Mayumi Saegusa to the area where the logistics troops were located.
When Suzune Ichihara saw the two arrive, she exchanged a few pleasantries and then went back to doing what she was doing.
"What are they doing?" Yunyi asked, puzzled.
"Gathering intelligence, analyzing the opponent, and so on," Mayumi Saegusa. "The plans we make before the match are all based on previous intelligence to deduce the opponent's strength. During the match, we gather the latest intelligence on the opponent and revise the battle plan accordingly. That's what Rin and the others are doing now."
Yunyi nodded. Although it was just a student competition, it was being done quite professionally.
"So our biggest rival is Third High School, right? The Third High School where the next headmaster of the Ichijo Family is?"
"Yes. Our biggest rival this year is Third High School. If we can suppress them in several key events, we can achieve a three-peat."
At this point, Mayumi Saegusa Yunyi with a resentful gaze and said, "If you, Yunyi-kun, were willing to participate in the newcomer competition of the Monolith Code tournament and secure the championship, the pressure on us would be much less."
Yunyi raised his hand to his forehead. "Let's skip it this year, and avoid giving the Ten Master Clans any more trouble. Next year, I'll have some fun with that kid from the Ichijo Family."
"Hmph~" Mayumi Saegusa snorted lightly, but did not refute Yunyi's statement.
Just as the two were chatting, bad news reached Suzune Ichihara.
"Yes, yes, I understand. I'll revise my strategy. Please tell Vice President Hattori not to take it to heart."
Suzune Ichihara hung up the phone, her gaze turning serious as she looked at the terminal in her hand.
" Rin, what happened?" Mayumi Saegusa hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
" Vice President Hattori's Battle Board didn't qualify!" Suzune Ichihara said.
As the vice president of the Student Council, Gyoubu Hattori is a highly skilled athlete at First High School. However, he was eliminated in the quarterfinals of the men's Battle Board. It has to be said that this is definitely not a good thing for No. First High School!
