People are in the magic card, instigating rebellion against the world.

Chapter 197 Ye Huijun, you were so cool just now!

"I possess this sword and courage. I promise you, I will definitely rescue the princess from the curse!"

After reciting her lines, Sakura looked at Ye Hui and Tomoyo expectantly: "How was it? Was it okay this time?"

Sakura's serious and earnest portrayal of the prince is truly captivating.

Ye Hui cleared his throat and commented, "Hmm... he has the courage, but this sword..."

"I'm just practicing!" Sakura muttered.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +8]

Tomoyo covered her mouth and chuckled softly: "I think Sakura looked really cool just now, especially her eyes, they were so determined."

She took out a camera and pointed the lens at Sakura: "Sakura, shall we do it again? This time I'll take a close-up of you."

"Hmm!" Encouraged by Tomoyo, Sakura's confidence returned.

She repositioned herself, ready to try again.

[Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, is practicing the Supreme Sword Technique of the Myriad Laws Immortal Sect—the Sword of Salvation. Her sword intent is fierce, possessing the power to cleave the heavens and earth! You are observing from the sidelines, hoping to secretly learn from her...]

"I possess this sword and courage..." Sakura recited her lines again.

This time, her voice was louder and her eyes were more determined than before.

The progress is very obvious.

"Clap clap clap." Ye Hui clapped his hands.

"Not bad, not bad, you've improved. If you keep this up, you'll definitely become a qualified prince."

"Hehe!" Sakura smiled broadly.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +6]

Just as they were practicing with great enthusiasm, Li Xiaolang walked over from not far away.

He was also holding a script in his hand.

Judging from his appearance, he was also looking for a place to practice his lines.

When Li Xiaolang saw Ye Hui and the others, he paused for a moment.

"Li!" Xiaoying spotted him with her sharp eyes.

She waved enthusiastically: "Are you here to practice too? Want to come together?"

Li Xiaolang's body stiffened for a moment.

He just wanted to find a quiet place to practice by himself.

I never expected to run into them here.

[Li Xiaolang's Mood Value +6]

"I'm just passing by," Li Xiaolang replied coolly, but his feet moved toward them.

"Hey, don't be shy!" Sakura ran over, grabbed his arm, and pulled him onto the lawn.

"It's more fun to practice together! Besides, aren't you playing a prince from a neighboring country? We can rehearse together!"

"I'm not shy!"

Li Xiaolang, you're being hypocritical again.

"Since you're here, let's sit together." Ye Hui patted the grass next to him, gesturing for him to sit down.

Li Xiaolang glanced at him, but still sat down.

"Li, you're playing a prince from a neighboring country, so you must have quite a few lines, right?" Tomoyo asked with a smile.

"Mm." Li Xiaolang nodded.

Although his role wasn't the main character, it was still a fairly important supporting male character.

His main purpose is to propose to the princess, only to be rejected.

Finally, in the great battle between the prince and the wizard, he makes a cameo appearance to highlight the heroism of the protagonist.

"Since everyone's here, why don't we rehearse our lines?" Tomoyo suggested.

"In the scene of the princess's birthday banquet, several of us main characters will appear."

"Yay!" Sakura agreed.

The rehearsals on the lawn were in full swing.

Although Sakura's portrayal of the prince is still somewhat immature, under the joint guidance of Tomoyo and Hikaru, she is becoming more and more convincing.

The prince from the neighboring country, played by Li Xiaolang, has an overly serious expression.

He seemed more like someone coming to collect a debt than to propose marriage.

As a wizard, Ye Hui only needs to put on a gloomy expression, along with threatening lines and actions.

It wasn't difficult for him.

Tomoyo's portrayal of the princess is essentially a natural fit for her.

Gentle and beautiful~
"Let's take a break, I'm so tired." After rehearsing for a while, Sakura plopped down on the grass.

"Yeah, I'm feeling a bit tired too." Tomoyo stopped and took out a tissue to wipe the light sweat from her forehead.

Just then, a familiar and gentle voice came from outside the fence not far away.

Are you all rehearsing for a play?

Sakura looked in the direction of the sound and her eyes lit up instantly.

"Brother Snow Rabbit!"

Yukito was standing outside the school fence, wearing the Stars and Stripes High School uniform, waving at them.

He was also holding a huge brown paper bag in his arms.

It was packed full, with a baguette sticking out.

Sakura ran towards the fence.

Li Xiaolang quickly followed.

Speaking of which, Sakura and Li Xiaolang are still "love rivals".

Ye Hui and Zhi Shi also walked over.

"Yukito-san, what are you doing here?" Sakura ran to the fence and looked at Yukito with surprise.

"Our teacher is absent today, so we have self-study this afternoon. I thought I'd come out to buy some snacks." Yukito shook the paper bag in her arms, smiling gently.

He glanced at Li Xiaolang following behind Xiaoying and nodded to him in a friendly manner.

Li Xiaolang's face secretly turned red, and he awkwardly looked away.

Yukito looked at Ye Hui and Tomoyo and greeted them with a smile: "Ye Hui, Tomoyo, you're here too."

"Good afternoon, Yukito-san," Tomoyo replied with a smile.

"Brother Snow Rabbit," Ye Hui greeted.

"Brother Yukito, did you buy so much stuff?" Sakura was shocked as she looked at the paper bag that was almost overflowing in Yukito's arms.

Snow Rabbit nodded: "Yes, I was a little hungry, so I bought a little extra. Would you like to have some too?"

"Okay!" Sakura clasped her hands together, looking expectant.

Sakura: (/^▽^)/ I can eat with Yukito!

Snow Rabbit smiled, then held the paper bag in one hand and braced itself against the fence with the other.

With an easy somersault, he jumped in from next door.

Snow Rabbit placed the paper bag on the steps next to the lawn, and then took out the food items one by one.

"Snow Rabbit Bro, you bought way too much, didn't you?" Tomoyo looked at the pile of food and was a little surprised.

"Really?" Snow Rabbit looked at the food, then at the group of people.

He tilted his head, somewhat puzzled: "Sharing this among five people might not be enough, right?"

Ye Hui: “…”

No, Snow Rabbit Bro.

Your food intake standards are different from those of the average person.

Your appetite alone is probably equivalent to that of the four of us.

"By the way, Yuzue Elementary School is going to hold a talent show soon, right?" Yukito asked while eating a sandwich.

“Yes!” Sakura replied.

"What kind of performance is your class going to put on?" Snow Rabbit asked them curiously.

“Our class is putting on a play!” Tomoyo replied with a smile.

Snow Rabbit seemed intrigued: "A play? What kind of play is it?"

"It's Sleeping Beauty!" Sakura blurted out.

“Sleeping Beauty, that’s a wonderful story.” Snow Rabbit nodded.

"So you'll all be participating? What roles will you be playing?"

This problem has arisen.

Sakura's cheeks flushed slightly, and she lowered her head shyly.

Tomoyo answered generously, "I play Sleeping Beauty."

"Chiyo is the perfect choice to play the princess," Yukito praised with a smile.

Then, his gaze fell on Sakura.

"What about Sakura? What role will you play?"

Sakura poked her finger and said in a soft voice, "I...I played the prince..."

"Prince?" Snow Rabbit paused for a moment, then laughed.

"Sakura would be so handsome playing a prince!"

Sakura's face turned rosy after receiving Yukito's praise.

Sakura: (ω)
"What about Ye Hui and Li?" Xue Tu looked at Ye Hui and Li again.

"I'm playing an evil wizard," Ye Hui said, shrugging.

“I’ll play the prince of the neighboring country,” Li Xiaolang replied, blushing.

"That's really interesting." After hearing this, Yukito laughed even more heartily.

"It sounds like a fantastic performance. I'll definitely go see it."

"Really? Yukito-san, you're coming to see us?" Sakura asked, her face beaming with surprise.

Snow Rabbit nodded: "Of course, I'm really looking forward to everyone's performance."

Upon hearing that Yukito would be coming to visit, Sakura felt an instant surge of energy.

She clenched her little fists and made a silent vow in her heart.

You must practice diligently!

Show your most handsome self at the talent show!
[Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, is full of fighting spirit, determined to win first place in the sect's grand competition and win a smile from her protector, Tsukishiro Yukito!]

Li Xiaolang listened from the side, and although he didn't say anything, his eyes also became serious.

He needs to perform well too, he can't let that guy Kinomoto outshine him.

Seeing the two of them like this, Ye Hui silently handed Zhi Shi a cookie.

The power of the snow rabbit is truly amazing.

The lunch break ended quickly.

Snow Rabbit tidied up the remaining snacks.

In his view, it was what was left over.

But in Ye Hui's and his colleagues' view, he had solved 80% of the problem by himself.

Then I said goodbye to everyone and went back to my school.

"Goodbye, Yukito!" Sakura waved goodbye reluctantly until Yukito's figure completely disappeared from sight.

"Sakura, snap out of it, stop being such a lovesick fool," Ye Hui couldn't help but remind her.

"I'm not!" Sakura retorted, her cheeks slightly flushed, as she looked away.

……

Early in the morning, Yuzhi Elementary School was still shrouded in tranquility.

Apart from the occasional clear bird song, there were no other sounds.

Ye Hui strolled leisurely along the tree-lined path leading to the teaching building.

He wouldn't normally be here at this time.

After all, elementary school doesn't start this early.

Unfortunately, Xiaoying called last night.

Over the phone, she announced a major decision.

"Ye Huijun! I've made up my mind! Starting tomorrow, we'll meet at school at seven o'clock every morning to practice our play together!"

"Sakura, are you serious? Seven o'clock is way too early, isn't it?" Ye Hui blinked.

"Of course I'm serious!" Sakura exclaimed, brimming with fighting spirit.

"Brother Xue Tu said he'd come to see our performance, so we absolutely have to give it our best! We can't let Brother Xue Tu down!"

Okay, it's Snow Rabbit again.

The charm of the snow rabbit is truly unmatched.

"But can you even get up?" Ye Hui asked doubtfully.

Based on his understanding of Sakura, she was a complete queen of sleeping in.

"Hmph! Ye Huijun, you underestimate me!" Xiaoying said defiantly.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +5]

"To make sure I get up on time, I borrowed both my dad's and brother's alarm clocks! I set six alarms, starting at six o'clock, going off every five minutes! I refuse to believe I can't get up!"

Ye Hui: "..." Fine, you win.

Sakura, you're really going all out for Snow Rabbit Bro!

And so, Ye Hui was pulled into the morning exercise group.

When he arrived at the back of the agreed-upon school building, he found that Sakura and Tomoyo were already there.

Sakura looked determined and full of fighting spirit.

It seems those six alarm clocks worked quite well.

Tomoyo stood quietly to the side, script in hand, looking at Sakura with tenderness.

"Good morning, Ye Hui! You're a little slow today!" Sakura waved to Ye Hui when she saw him.

"Good morning, Sakura, Tomoyo." Ye Hui stepped forward.

"The weather's nice today, let's practice outside," Tomoyo suggested.

The morning air was fresh, carrying a faint scent of grass.

Practicing in such an environment can also improve your mood.

"Yay!" Sakura agreed.

She picked up the tree branch she had been using as a sword: "Where shall we begin our practice?"

“Let’s go over the scene where the princess pricks her hand on the spindle first,” Tomoyo said, flipping through the script.

"Uh-huh!"

Zhi Shi handed the script to Ye Hui, then walked to the center of the lawn.

“Sakura, Ye Huijun, imagine that this place is a palace right now, and I am a princess who is full of curiosity about everything.”

As Tomoyo spoke, she got into character.

She twirled around on the lawn, her face beaming with an innocent and carefree smile.

Then, her gaze was drawn to the non-existent spinning wheel.

"What is this?" Tomoyo's purple eyes were filled with curiosity.

She walked lightly towards the spinning wheel, step by step.

Tomoyo stretched out her slender fingers and carefully touched the "spindle".

"what!"

Tomoyo let out a soft gasp.

Then her body went limp and she fell backward.

Finally, he lay quietly on the lawn, his eyes closed and his breathing steady.

If Ye Hui hadn't known she was acting, he would have really thought she was asleep.

"Tomoyo, you're amazing! You acted like you really got pricked!" Sakura ran over and looked at Tomoyo lying on the lawn with admiration.

"Zhi Shi's acting skills are definitely worthy of an Oscar," Ye Hui praised.

"Alright, the princess is asleep now, it's time for the prince to make his appearance." Tomoyo sat up from the lawn and brushed the grass clippings off her clothes.

She turned her gaze to Sakura, her purple eyes full of encouragement: "Sakura, it's your turn."

"Yes!" Sakura nodded vigorously.

She recalled the key points that Tomoyo had taught her.

Determined, yet deeply affectionate.

She wants to become a handsome prince whom the princess can entrust her life to!

"If my kiss could wake the princess up..."

When the word "kiss" was mentioned, Sakura's cheeks involuntarily flushed.

Even though I knew it was acting, and even that it was just a camera trick.

But the thought of having to "intimately" understand the world in front of so many people is unbearable.

She still felt a little embarrassed.

But for Snow Rabbit Bro!

She gave it all!
Sakura mentally cheered herself up and continued reciting her lines.

"I swear by this sword, I will love this beautiful forest princess forever!" The next scene is a kiss.

However, Ye Hui and his group skipped this part for the time being.

After reciting her lines, Sakura looked at Ye Hui and Tomoyo with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

"How is it? Is it okay this time?"

"Not bad, not bad, very princely." Ye Hui commented, suppressing a smile.

Sakura's attempts to portray a handsome prince are just too adorable.

"Ye Huijun! You're laughing at me again!" Xiaoying saw his shoulders shrugging and knew he was secretly laughing to himself again.

She brandished the branch sword in her hand in protest.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +7]

"I wasn't laughing at you, I was applauding your wonderful performance," Ye Hui said innocently, shrugging his shoulders.

He swore to God that Sakura was just too cute.

No one can resist laughing.

"You have it!"

"I do not have."

"You have it!"

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +8]

"Alright, alright, Sakura, Ye Huijun wasn't laughing at you." Tomoyo stood up and walked between the two of them.

She looked at Sakura, her purple eyes filled with a gentle smile: "I think Sakura's performance just now was fantastic, especially the last vow, which she delivered with such power that I was quite moved."

"Really?" Sakura blushed slightly upon hearing Tomoyo's praise.

“Of course it’s true.” Tomoyo’s purple eyes curved into a smile.

"Sakura, let's do it again! This time it'll be even better!"

"Yes!" Receiving Tomoyo's affirmation reignited Sakura's fighting spirit.

She repositioned herself, ready to try again.

Just as Sakura was about to recite her lines again.

A sudden gust of wind blew from the direction of the playground.

The wind carried fine grains of sand.

It stung slightly when it hit my face.

It can also easily blur your vision.

"Huh? Why is it suddenly windy?" Sakura rubbed her eyes, puzzled.

Today was a bright and sunny day, and the weather forecast said there was no wind.

“Yes, and this wind… seems a bit off.” Tomoyo frowned.

Ye Hui had found the answer in his heart.

Sand Brand.

This guy really knows how to pick his timing.

He just had to come out and cause trouble when Sakura was really into her rehearsal.

"Ye Huijun, Zhi Shi, look!" Sakura exclaimed.

A pile of sand appeared out of nowhere and began to spin faster and faster, forming a small tornado.

The sand was swirled into the air and then fell back down.

Soon, the entire ground was covered by a thin layer of yellow sand.

"Is this the work of the Clow Cards?" Sakura asked uncertainly, looking at the strange scene before her.

“That’s right.” Ye Hui nodded, his tone calm.

"It's Sand Brand."

Anyway, all these strange phenomena must be Clow Cards.

When in doubt, play the Clow Card.

The once clean lawn is now covered with a thick layer of yellow sand.

The sand flowed across the ground, converging into streams that eventually surged toward the small tornado.

The tornado spun faster and faster, stirring up more and more sand and dust, gradually forming a huge sand vortex.

The ancient ferocious beast "Earth-Devouring Sand Demon," originally imprisoned by the Immortal Talisman Sect, has broken free and reappeared in the mortal realm! This beast feeds on the earth, devouring all things, turning everything in its path into an endless sea of ​​sand!

[Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, and Daidouji Tomoyo, a guardian deity, are within the attack range of the ferocious beast, the Earth-Devouring Sand Demon...]

Tomoyo Daidouji is very worried about Sakura Kinomoto's safety and feels that with your help, Sakura will be safer...

[Ding! You have refreshed the Bond quest – “Wrath of the Sand Demon”!]

Ye Hui looked at the long list of task descriptions that popped up on the system panel.

How did a sand card turn into an ancient ferocious beast in the quest log?

He even rescued the damsel in distress...

Ye Hui glanced around.

Tomoyo was holding a camera, excitedly filming the whirlpool from every angle.

His purple eyes sparkled with creative inspiration, and he muttered to himself.

"This angle is good; it captures the texture of flowing sand."

"If there were a shot of Sakura from below during her battle, it would be incredibly cool!"

Although Sakura was nervous, her face showed more of a fighting spirit.

"Ye Huijun, Zhi Shi, step back! I'm going in!"

As she spoke, she pulled a Clow Card from her pocket.

Ye Hui: “…”

So, what exactly makes these two seem to be in imminent danger?
The Sand Card is made of sand and can change its shape at will.

Moreover, it can manipulate sand to create various attacks such as quicksand and sandstorms.

In the original storyline, Sakura went through a lot of trouble to deal with it.

"Sakura, be careful, the Sand Card is hard to deal with," Ye Hui warned.

Let Sakura try it out; he'll be there to back her up.

"Okay! I understand!" Sakura nodded.

She took out the wind tile.

Sakura's idea was simple: since sand is solid, she could just use the wind to blow it apart.

As Sakura uttered the incantation, a strong wind swept towards the sand vortex.

"Will it work?" Sakura asked expectantly.

The strong wind did indeed cause the sand vortex to shake, and some sand on the outer edge was blown away.

However, the core of the vortex remained stable.

Moreover, the scattered sand swirled in the air before flowing back into the vortex.

The sand vortex has become even larger than before.

"How could this happen?" Sakura was somewhat disheartened.

Her wind cards had no effect on the sand cards.

"Sakura, don't be discouraged! That was really cool!" Tomoyo cheered her on from the side, her camera never stopping.

Sakura raised her wand again, ready to try a different Clow Card.

Just then, the sand vortex suddenly stopped spinning.

All the sand seemed to have lost its support, falling from mid-air and piling up into a small hill on the ground.

"Huh? What's going on?" Sakura asked, puzzled.

Sand Card... has it given up resistance?

Of course not.

Based on Ye Hui's experience, Sand Shield is about to unleash its ultimate move.

Why does it also increase the difficulty?
This scene wasn't in the original storyline.

The sand dune began to shake violently, and the sand on the surface kept sliding down.

A gigantic figure made of sand slowly rose from the sand dune.

This is a sand giant that is several meters tall.

Its body is made entirely of yellow sand, and its features are blurred, but you can clearly feel the oppressive aura it exudes.

"Wow..." Sakura exclaimed in amazement as she looked at the enormous creature before her.

"Sakura! This shot is amazing!" Tomoyo excitedly adjusted the camera's focus.

Ye Hui found it somewhat amusing to see the two of them, one shocked and the other excited.

Anyway, no one is in a crisis.

Sakura and Tomoyo had both experienced scenes of this magnitude before in Ye Hui's Tower of Trials.

Of course, I didn't feel nervous at all.

The Sand Giant raised its enormous arm made of sand and swung it towards Sakura.

"fly!"

Sakura reacted quickly, immediately using the Flying Card before the Sand Giant's arm could swing down.

Two wings sprouted from the end of the wand, carrying her into the air and allowing her to successfully dodge the attack.

"boom--"

The sand giant's arm slammed into the ground, causing the entire ground to tremble.

"Sakura! Skip the sign," Ye Hui reminded from below.

"Skip the card?" Sakura was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood.

She's in the air now, making her too obvious a target and an easy target for the Sand Giant.

Using a jump sign to move at high speed on the ground is actually safer.

"I see!"

Sakura put away her flying sign and it landed on the ground.

Then, she initiated the jump card.

A pair of tiny wings sprouted from her feet, carrying her nimbly as she leaped across the ground, dodging the attacks of the sand giant.

Although the Sand Giant is enormous, its movements are clumsy and it can't keep up with Sakura's speed at all.

Several attacks failed.

The sand giant's body suddenly disintegrated, turning into a vast expanse of yellow sand that swept towards Sakura.

"It's going to use a sandstorm!" Sakura reacted quickly.
She came up with a new solution.

Since wind won't work, let's use water!

If you turn the sand into soil, it won't be able to move anymore!
However, what Sakura didn't expect was...

The water was completely absorbed as soon as it came into contact with the yellow sand.

The sandstorm showed no signs of abating; on the contrary, it became even heavier as it absorbed moisture.

"How could this happen..." Sakura blinked, but didn't panic.

Even the water sign wasn't used.

"Sakura!" Tomoyo looked at Sakura, who was surrounded by yellow sand, and worry finally appeared in her purple eyes.

“Ye Huijun…” She turned to look at Ye Hui.

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +15】

Ye Hui looked at the emotion value that popped up on the system panel and sighed silently.

Sigh, with Sakura's current magical power, she could definitely have easily dealt with the Sand Card from the original storyline.

The difficulty has increased, so it can't be solved in the short term.

It seems we'll need to train Sakura more in the future.

after all……

It's unclear whether the subsequent trial will change.

"Don't worry," Ye Hui said.

Tomoyo regained her composure.

She nodded slightly, her purple eyes filled with trust: "Yes! Ye Huijun, I'm counting on you!"

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +12】

Ye Hui looked at the sandstorm that was sweeping in from all directions and stretched out his right hand, pointing it at the ground below the sandstorm.

"Turning the earth into steel."

Centered on his right-hand side, the ground began to change rapidly.

The original soil and lawn have all been transformed into steel that gleams with a metallic sheen.

In the blink of an eye, the entire ground was transformed into a vast expanse of steel.

Sunlight shone on the smooth steel floor, reflecting a dazzling light.

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +15】

Meanwhile, Sakura, trapped in the sandstorm, also sensed something strange coming from beneath her feet.

She looked down and found that the ground beneath her feet had somehow turned into steel.

"Did Ye Huijun make this?" The thought immediately popped into Xiaoying's mind.

Only Ye Huijun could do something so incredible.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +15]

Just as she was lost in thought.

The yellow sand, having lost its support, plummeted from mid-air, piling up into small dunes on the steel ground.

Without land as a medium, Sand Brand can no longer stir up trouble.

The sandstorm, which had been so fierce and seemed ready to devour everything, was easily neutralized.

"Sakura, go and capture it!" Ye Hui pulled Sakura, who was still in a daze, back to reality.

"Huh? Okay!" Sakura snapped out of her daze and quickly raised her wand.

Knowing that his chances of winning were slim, Sha Pai simply lay down and didn't even bother to struggle anymore.

"Restore your original form, Clow Card!"

With Sakura's incantation, the sand card was absorbed into the card.

A brand new Clow Card floated gently into Sakura's hand.

"Great! We successfully captured it!" Sakura cheered happily as she looked at the sand card in her hand.

"Ye Hui-kun! Tomoyo! I captured the Sand Card!" Sakura ran excitedly towards Ye Hui and the others.

She ran halfway before realizing that the ground beneath her feet was still cold steel.

Sakura curiously squatted down and tapped it with her hand.

"Bang bang bang".

It made a crisp sound.

"It really is iron!" Sakura exclaimed in amazement.

She looked up at Ye Hui, her dark green eyes sparkling with curiosity: "Ye Hui-kun, what kind of ability is this? It's amazing!"

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +12]

"It's a supernatural ability I learned before," Ye Hui explained.

Sakura looked at Ye Hui with admiration: "Ye Hui-kun, you really can do everything!"

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +10]

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +9】

"Try to comprehend it quickly and see if you can learn any new supernatural powers!" Sakura stuffed the Clow Cards into Ye Hui's hand.

She's even more proactive than Ye Hui himself now.

[You arrived at the side of Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, and Daidouji Tomoyo, a guardian deity. Before you could even offer assistance, Kinomoto Sakura had already dealt with the Earth-Eating Sand Demon on her own!]

[To gain Tomoyo Daidouji's gratitude, you used illusion magic to distort the truth! Tomoyo Daidouji is indeed extremely grateful to you...]

[Ding! You have completed the side quest "Wrath of the Sand Demon"! You have obtained the Earth and Stone Manual (Fragment). Use it?]

Task log refreshed.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will soon obtain the Earth Spirit Root...

Now, Ye Hui only needs one more elemental root—fire—to complete the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Ye Hui planned to finish rehearsing with Sakura and Tomoyo, and then study it when he had time.

"Alright, put the cards away now." Ye Hui reached out and ruffled Sakura's hair.

With a thought, he released the supernatural power that could turn the ground into steel.

The steel landscape that once gleamed with metallic luster has returned to soft lawns and soil.

"Wow! It's back to normal!" Sakura exclaimed again, looking at the changes under her feet.

Zhi Shi walked to Ye Hui's side, her purple eyes curving upwards.

"Ye Huijun, you were so cool just now."
