The momentary shock was fleeting; the Ninth High School player wouldn't let such a thing stop his offensive. He immediately began casting his next spell, attacking the ice pillar opposite him.
One, two, until the fourth icicle collapsed in Yunyi's arena, the students from First High School in the stands finally couldn't sit still any longer. They wanted to shout loudly and condemn Yunyi's passive attitude towards the competition, but after seeing Mayumi Saegusa sitting in the front row, they ultimately gritted their teeth and held back.
Mayumi Saegusa's heart was also in her throat. At this moment, she didn't care whether Yunyi was wearing the clothes they had bought together, nor did she care about the unpleasant conversation from the previous night. She was very worried about Yunyi, simply worried.
The fifth, the sixth, and when the Ninth High School contestant effortlessly knocked down the seventh ice pillar, Yunyi finally made a move. He raised his head, looked at his smug opponent, and a cryptic smile appeared on his lips.
Instead of manipulating the CAD on his wrist, he slowly raised his arms and unleashed his Domain Magic, enveloping the entire arena.
To others, this action might require guessing what Yunyi was doing. But Mayumi Saegusa, who had witnessed the Domain Expansion once before, was stunned.
" Yunyi-kun, what are you doing?!"
Ignoring the strange looks from those around her, Mayumi Saegusa Nanagusa stood up and shouted at Yunyi on the competition stage.
However, how could her voice alone possibly drown out the shouts of so many people in the arena?
"Bang!"
Another shattering sound rang out, and the eighth ice pillar in Yunyi's arena was also broken. The Ninth High School player wore a triumphant smile, inwardly shouting, "We won!"
Yunyi raised his palm towards his opponent's arena, seemingly preparing to launch a counterattack. However, his opponent still had nine ice pillars in his arena, while he only had one left. Anyone would think that the outcome of the match was already decided.
The player from Ninth High School thought so too, but his magic, when it struck the last ice pillar in the Yunyi arena, failed to leave even the slightest mark!?
Immediately afterwards, the nine icicles in the Ninth High School's arena began to move as Yunyi slowly clenched his fist, eventually all converging in the center of the arena.
Having gathered the opponent's ice pillars, Yunyi pointed two fingers at the nine gathered ice pillars and softly uttered two words: "Explode!"
As his Kanon fell, a deafening explosion resounded across the field. The voices of the students who had just been shouting for Ninth High School's victory, those who had been discussing Yunyi's passive play, and those who had simply cheered for the spectacle were all completely drowned out by the explosion.
The organizing committee members, who were watching the competition, also suddenly stood up at the sound of the engine! They were also taken aback by what they saw.
The explosions gradually subsided, but the ears of the students who had come to watch the game were ringing. Their gazes, however, remained fixed on the lingering icy mist.
A moment later, the icy mist dissipated, revealing the scene inside. At this moment, there was not a single intact icicle left in the area where the Ninth High School contestants were located; only a pile of ice shards remained.
Yunyi lowered his hand, pressed the button on the handrail, and controlled the elevator to descend slowly.
The announcement that the match was over didn't sound until after he had completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
The big screen naturally showed that Yunyi had won, but this victory did not make Mayumi Saegusa happy at all!
She hurriedly got up to leave, but was stopped by Mari Watanabe.
" Mayumi, calm down!" Mari Watanabe scolded.
" Mari?"
"Something's not right about him, Mayumi. Do you know something?" Mari Watanabe asked in a deep voice.
"I..."
Mayumi Saegusa didn't know how to answer the question, but Mari Watanabe already knew the answer from her expression. She grabbed Mayumi Saegusa and said, "Come on, this isn't the place to talk, let's go somewhere else."
Meanwhile, back in the preparation room, Yunyi saw many people who had come to cheer him on.
Upon seeing him return, Erika Chiba was the first to ask, "Hey, what's wrong with you? Were you spacing out during the match?"
Yunyi forced a smile, took off the CAD file, handed it to Tatsuya Shiba, and whispered, "The CAD file has been tampered with. Part of the Activation Sequence has been deleted, and strange things have been mixed in. I think it was those people who did it. Keep it safe; you can use it as evidence."
Tatsuya Shiba frowned slightly. He was certain that Yunyi wouldn't lie to him about something like this, so he immediately put the CAD away.
Seeing the two's actions, Miyuki Shiba and the others were also somewhat puzzled.
"Don't worry, everyone. It's just that the CAD system couldn't handle my complex Activation Sequence failure. Don't worry, Tatsuya has prepared spare parts," Yunyi explained, calming everyone down.
"So that's how it is. You worried us for so long," Erika Chiba remarked.
Yunyi didn't take his complaints to heart. After chatting with her for a few minutes, he looked at the others.
It has to be said, there were quite a few people in the cheering team.
Yunyi Leonhart, Erika Chiba, Mizuki Shibata, and even Mikihiko Yoshida, who was only a classmate, all came along. And it wasn't just them; Miyuki Shiba, Shizuku Kitayama, and Honoka Mitsui, three students from Class A, were also present. Especially Shizuku Kitayama and Honoka Mitsui — Yunyi probably didn't exchange more than thirty sentences with either of them combined. Of course, these two were likely accompanying Miyuki Shiba. And Miyuki Shiba was probably there because Tatsuya Shiba there. After all, Yunyi and Miyuki Shiba were only slightly better classmates.
After chatting for a few minutes, Tatsuya Shiba finally found an opportunity to ask, "Do you want to use the backup CAD?"
Yunyi gently shook his head. He and Tatsuya Shiba were standing by the window, a little distance from the others. He whispered to Tatsuya Shiba, "After catching those rats, I'll leave. Before I go, I need to leave a little shock on the Ten Master Clans of Japan."
Upon hearing this, Tatsuya Shiba's eyes flickered slightly.
Have you thought it through?
He was somewhat unsure of Yunyi's original intentions, and it seemed that he was somewhat dissatisfied with the Ten Master Clans? In addition, the term " Ten Master Clans " in Japan also confirmed Tatsuya's suspicions.
"What's there to think about or not think about? Plans just can't keep up with changes," Yunyi said nonchalantly.
