Because Yunyi had eight ice pillars broken by a contestant from Ninth High School in the first round, his total score was the same as that of a contestant from Third High School. Therefore, the organizing committee decided to have the two of them compete in an additional round to determine the final champion.
While Yunyi was being questioned, Masaki Ichijo and Shinkuro Kichijoji were trying to help the player devise a battle plan. However, after a lot of effort, they couldn't find even the slightest flaw in Yunyi's match video, which drove the two of them a little crazy.
"Perhaps..." Suddenly, Shinkuro Kichijoji seemed to have thought of something.
" George?" Masaki Ichijo pressed.
" Liu Yunyi's Ancient Magic is very destructive. If we only think about countering or countering it, the effect probably won't be very noticeable. But what about reflection magic? Like the kind of reflection magic he used before? Would that have a good effect?"
Upon hearing Shinkuro Kichijoji's words, everyone's eyes lit up. But the next moment, Masaki Ichijo poured a bucket of ice water over their heads.
" George, are you familiar with this technique?"
Shinkuro Kichijoji stood there, stunned. Yes, he didn't know reflection magic himself!
"Sigh~" Masaki Ichijo sighed softly. He looked at all the contestants from Third High School and said, "Everyone, the score gap between us and First High School isn't significant right now, and Mari Watanabe from First High School will be absent from the Mirage Bat Picking competition due to injury. Furthermore, the rookie tournament is also in our favor; George and I are confident we can win the Monolith Code. All things considered, our total score will allow us to overtake First High School in the end, so we can't afford to give up any opportunity."
At this point, he turned his gaze to the contestant who would be facing Yunyi in the final Icicle Destruction match. "Senior, your task is indeed very difficult, but please give it your all. Thank you!"
As soon as he finished Kanon, Masaki Ichijo bowed to the contestant.
Seeing the attitude of the junior student known as the Crimson Prince, the player from Third High School was reignited with fighting spirit.
"Don't worry, I won't let him win the championship so easily!"
As these words, which sounded like a vow, were spoken, the contestant picked up his CAD and headed to the competition field.
However, the Masaki Ichijo and Shinkuro Kichijoji looked at him was as if they were looking at a warrior about to be executed.
" Masaki, you should know very well that your senior can't win," Shinkuro Kichijoji said softly.
"Ah, I know, I know everything, George. That guy is a formidable enemy far beyond our imagination," Masaki Ichijo deep voice.
Even so, he couldn't say anything discouraging to the players before the competition. He could only sincerely pray that his senior could create a miracle.
By the time Mayumi Saegusa found Katsuto Jumonji, Yunyi had already returned to the arena.
" Saegusa, don't worry. Grand Master Kudou has already made a judgment on Yunyi's actions, and he has returned to the arena to participate in the competition." Seeing Mayumi Saegusa's anxious expression, Katsuto Jumonji comforted her.
"Oh, I see." Mayumi Saegusa, and looked at Katsuto Jumonji with gratitude, saying, "Thank you for your hard work Jumonji-kun."
"It's nothing. I have other things to take care of, so I'll be going now." Katsuto Jumonji said goodbye and left.
After watching him leave, the smile on Mayumi Saegusa's face gradually faded. She felt that something was off about what had happened today. Especially between her and Yunyi, there seemed to be a strange force preventing them from meeting.
In the arena, Yunyi and the Third High School contestants were already standing on the high platform. Looking at the solemn expressions on their faces, Yunyi chuckled softly.
"As your opponent in the final battle, you'll be disappointed if I don't leave a lasting impression, won't you?"
As Yunyi finished Kanon, the announcement signaling the start of the competition rang out.
The player from the Third High School immediately got into the zone, rapidly operating the CAD software to begin constructing a Activation Sequence attack!
Seeing his eagerness to gain the upper hand, Yunyi couldn't help but sneer again. He slowly raised his palm and aimed it at the opponent's area.
This action reminded the spectators of what he had done in the first match. Most students did not want to endure that kind of torment again, so they quickly covered their ears.
This time, however, Yunyi wasn't going to use a low-level spell like Rupture. He was going to use Spatial Magic, which was currently the only one in the world who could use it!
" Old Man Kudou, didn't you want to see my worth? Well, I'll show you! I hope you don't give you a heart attack!"
"Imaginary numbers!"
A dark figure suddenly appeared on the court of the Third High School players. Moreover, the area covered by the dark figure was gradually expanding, and eventually the entire half of the court was covered.
"Devour!"
As Yunyi finished Kanon, the dark shadow on the ground closed from both sides toward the center, like a giant mouth.
The moment the two ends of the shadow touched, it plunged straight into the ground. The nine ice pillars on the field had already vanished.
Complete silence? What does "complete silence" mean? This is exactly the scene in the Icicle Destruction match.
Staring, rubbing eyes, mouths agape, mouths covered – you could find all sorts of expressions in the stands at that moment.
After nearly ten seconds of silence, the announcement that the match was over finally sounded. Yunyi's name reappeared on the big screen. However, he didn't care to look at it at all and directly pressed the elevator button, sending him down from the platform.
Ah~
Yunyi stretched as he stepped off the stage.
"This tedious game is finally over. Now, as long as Tatsuya gets some men to find where those bugs are hiding, my trip to Japan can come to its final stop."
Yunyi muttered to himself as he walked towards the contestants' passage. But as soon as he approached the passage, a petite figure bumped into him.
The familiar fragrance wafted into Yunyi's nose, causing him to freeze in place, unsure of what to do with his hands.
" Mayumi? What brings you here?"
Yunyi was puzzled. Didn't this girl say she wanted to break up? He had been deliberately avoiding her, so why did she come here on her own?
" Yunyi-kun, are you angry?"
Mayumi Saegusa's hands were tightly wrapped around Yunyi 'Yunyi waist. She could sense his resistance to her from his actions, an attitude that Yunyi had never shown when they were pretending to be a couple.
"Angry?"
