I am the heroine's godfather!

Laura's mouth dropped open in disbelief: "I'm fighting Bianca? Really?"

Charlotte and Anna could only look at her with pity. Charlotte, in particular, as a fellow member of the Academy of Sages, naturally knew the strength of Bianca and Laura. Laura was indeed very strong, but she was still a notch below Bianca.

But honestly, out of the eight, the only one Laura can reliably beat is that guy named Camori.

Camori is from the Knights Academy, an apolitical individual, and a member of the Horticulture Club. He's always kept a low profile, but his strength is quite considerable. However, as for facing Anna, we can only wish him good luck.

Anna may not be the best at studying, but her strength is by no means lacking. The same goes for that guy named Kyle—Charlotte couldn't help but sigh, the Knights Academy really does have a lot of reckless brutes.

安娜：什么意思每^日.发！书，群【6`5,0/5^0”2*3>3.8】？说我没脑子是吧！

"Sigh, it looks like we won't be able to meet in the semifinals."

Laura was a little disappointed, but Daisy comforted her, "It's okay, at most two people from Bianca's side will make it to the semifinals."

That's true. Bianca's faction, like Ana's, has three members in the quarterfinals, while Kyle, like Camorie, is unaffiliated. However, since his friend William is in Ana's faction, Kyle is somewhat inclined to side with Ana.

Both sides have three players who can advance to the quarterfinals, but Siruska, who will face Charlotte, can basically be ruled out. Bianca could advance if she plays Laura, and among the players, several favor Teblis over Kyle.

"Too......"

Laura wasn't really bothered, just a little disappointed. But thinking about it, three of the four finalists were her own people—wasn't that awesome?

However, this means that in the semifinals, our own players will definitely face each other, so it has both advantages and disadvantages.

Sigh, actually, I, Laura, couldn't bear to see siblings fighting each other and sisters turning against each other, which is why I made this sacrifice!

Laura's kindness is never enough!

Just kidding. Anyway, regardless of what the participants are thinking, the competition has officially begun.

"Charlotte!"

The half-elf lady was extremely agitated as soon as she stepped onto the stage: "Come on, let's have a good fight!"

"Um, okay, fine."

Charlotte actually doesn't quite know how to deal with Hiluska... On the one hand, they have a good relationship, but every time they see each other, Hiluska acts like she's going to fight or kill her. On the other hand, it seems like Hiluska doesn't dislike her.

How weird.

"This child is a half-elf."

Christine whispered to Estia. Estia frowned: "A half-elf raised in the outside world? No wonder he's so reckless."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I think this kid is pretty good, unlike you who always has an icy face."

"...Want to fight?"

"A little bit."

Christine, certain that Estia wouldn't fight her in front of everyone, launched into a frenzied taunt. Estia's face darkened to the point of being almost dripping with water, making it clear that a major battle was about to erupt.

The match officially began, and Siruska immediately started making threats: "Watch out, Charlotte! I will definitely beat you this time!"

"Good good..."

Charlotte looked helpless, then pulled out the standard staff. Tournaments usually require the use of standard staffs; otherwise, some wealthy players would probably spend a lot of money on powerful equipment to bully others.

Ah, but even among these people, Charlotte's equipment is quite luxurious. The pen Lucifer gave her is a genuine Gold-rank spellcasting tool! Who would bother equipping a first-grader with something like that!

Sigh, backstage.

In short, to prevent this from happening, everyone should use standard equipment to ensure fairness.

Charlotte was no exception.

The match began, and Charlotte signaled to Siluca to go first. Siluca naturally did not refuse, as she was not as good as Charlotte to begin with, and she would not give up the first move.

"O magic of wood, surge forth, bind it!"

"Wooden vine binding!"

With a rapid incantation, tree branches hurtled towards Charlotte, but she remained calm, chanting, "Light, protect me!"

A protective shield composed of pure light elements enveloped Charlotte, effectively preventing Siluca's attack.

"It's not over yet!"

Hiluska chanted rapidly, and the original texture instantly split into sharp little pieces, attacking Charlotte. Charlotte, however, remained calm, her staff gleaming with a brilliant light.

"Light Magic Shard!"

Magic clashed, unleashing a burst of thick smoke. The next moment, Charlotte emerged from the smoke, her longsword imbued with light magic, and she charged towards Siluca.

Hiluska quickly retreated, chanting a spell to summon a wooden shield that withstood Charlotte's surprise attack. But Charlotte's assault was far from over.

She moved with light steps, her whole body like a butterfly fluttering in the air, quickly circling behind Siluca.

Hiluska's expression changed drastically; she tried to turn around to defend herself, but it was too late.

Just as Charlotte's sword was about to pierce Hilusca, she twisted her wrist, and the sword grazed Hilusca's neck with a cold light, but did not harm her in the slightest.

"I lost." Siluska said decisively, without any hesitation. "But I'll definitely win next time!"

"Okay, I'll wait."

Meanwhile, the battle between Laura and Bianca has also entered a heated phase.

Although Laura was at a disadvantage, she held her breath and stared intently, hoping to find a weakness in Bianca. Although she said she didn't care, she still wanted to join Charlotte and Anna in the semifinals.

Unfortunately, Bianca is too powerful, and her fire attribute counters Anna's ice attribute magic, making her a very difficult opponent.

Chapter 150 The Final Four Tournament Concludes

While Charlotte was quickly finishing her battle, another battle was raging on.

Kyle, wielding his sword and shield, met Tebilis's greatsword head-on, and for a moment, he was not at a disadvantage!

"Is this guy really that good?"

"Kyle Tessler, if I remember correctly, is from the Hero Family?"

"They do have some strength."

A group of spectators began to whisper among themselves, and the trainees were also quite shocked: "Kyle is actually on par with Tebiris?"

"The Knights Academy has really produced an extraordinary individual."

"The Knights Academy and the Sage Academy are both very strong this year. The Knights Academy has Terbillis, Kyle, and Princess Anna. The Sage Academy has Siluca, Princess Bianca, and Charlotte. They're both quite remarkable."

"Don't forget that Laura, she's not weak at all, she's just not as strong as Princess Anka."

"Tsk tsk tsk, this year's juniors are really talented."

"Speaking of which, didn't a transfer student named Olivia come here before? She seemed pretty amazing too."

"Oh, you mean the one who sent someone flying several stories with one punch, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes! I saw it with my own eyes. I was chatting with my friend when suddenly someone flew up to the ceiling."

"It's said that this guy was banned because he was too strong."

"That's normal."

However, Kyle and Terbiris were oblivious to their discussion; they remained focused on the battle.

"What an amazing battle! Kyle and Terbiris are evenly matched! We can see that Terbiris's expression has turned serious! Oh, I forgot, he always has this serious expression."

Hugh enthusiastically explained, and Loran also analyzed, "Although Kyle's academic level is not high, his strength is indeed good, and he can be considered a dark horse."

"So, Professor Loran, which side do you favor?"

"As a teacher, I have high hopes for every aspect."

"Wow, that's a really sly answer, just like you, Professor Loran!"

"Yes Yes."

Loran smiled and nodded: "Speaking of which, I've decided to have a teaching assistant in class next year to practice with me and demonstrate to other students. Hugh, do you have any ideas about doing this?"

"...Hahaha, I think I'll pass."

Hugh smiled on the surface, but inwardly he was cursing: This is definitely settling a personal score!

On the battlefield, the battle between the two had reached a fever pitch.

Tebiris swung his greatsword, deflecting Kyle's sword, and then took the opportunity to swing it down heavily. It was easy to imagine that if Kyle had been hit by this blow, he would have been immediately incapacitated.

Kyle immediately raised his shield and deflected Terbiris's attack. He expected this to be a difficult move, but to his surprise, Terbiris's seemingly menacing sword was easily deflected.

not good!

With his defense wide open, how could Kyle not realize he had fallen into Terbiris's trap? He immediately tried to defend, but it was too late. He could only adjust his position and try to take Terbiris's attack head-on.

Tebiris kicked Kyle in the stomach, and Kyle felt a huge impact. The next moment, he was sent flying backward, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Kyle!"

Megan and William cried out anxiously, and the other audience members gasped in surprise.

"Oh! What a brilliant opening! What a brilliant counterattack! Has the battle already been decided?"

Hugh shouted, but Loran shook his head: "No, Kyle isn't that easy to fall, and Tebiris's move isn't enough to incapacitate him."

Sure enough, when the dust settled, Kyle stood up slowly and resolutely, sword in hand.

If Terbiris had seized this opportunity to press his advantage, Kyle would have had no chance to react at this point, so it's true that Hugh's statement that the outcome was already decided is accurate. However, Terbiris is a traditional and upright guy, so he would never do something like taking advantage of someone in distress on the ring.

Kyle naturally understood this as well. He coughed, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and thanked him, saying, "Thank you, Terbiris."

"nothing."

Tebilius maintained his serious expression: "Taking advantage of someone in distress in the arena is a disgrace to chivalry."

This sweeping generalization was a bit too much, and many people's faces darkened. However, everyone knew what kind of person Terbiris was, so no one really cared.

Okay, I do care a little bit, but really only a little bit.

"Alright, now let's begin round two!"

Kyle was breathing heavily, his eyes resolute.

"it is good!"

Kyle gripped his sword and shield tightly again, his aura rising once more. Seeing this, Terbillis raised his greatsword with both hands, ready for battle.

Kyle launched the first attack, charging towards Terbillis like a whirlwind, his sword flashing through the air. Terbillis remained steady, precisely parrying each of Kyle's strikes with his greatsword. Suddenly, Kyle abruptly changed his attack, slamming his shield forward with his left hand, forcing Terbillis to dodge.

While Terbiris was dodging, Kyle leaped high into the air and thrust his sword straight at Terbiris's face.

Tebiris quickly sidestepped, simultaneously swinging his greatsword at Kyle in mid-air.

"There's no way to avoid it! Kyle has no foothold in mid-air, how is he going to dodge this attack? Is the battle really going to end?"

Hugh shouted hurriedly, while Loran calmly analyzed:

"Since Kyle chose this method, it means he has a way to deal with it—or is this really his mistake? Who knows."

Just as Terbiris's sword was about to strike Kyle, at the last second, Kyle twisted his body in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the sweeping attack.

Upon landing, Kyle didn't give Teblis any time to catch his breath, quickly rolling over to get close to him and engaging in close combat.

The two exchanged blows, their speed increasing rapidly!

The surrounding spectators could barely see their movements; they could only hear the clanging of weapons.

Finally, with the sound of weapons clashing, everyone looked and saw a light sword fly out due to the wielder's exhaustion, and it stuck straight into the arena.

As the smoke cleared, Tebiris's greatsword was pressed against Kyle's neck on the arena.

The outcome has been decided.

"The winner is, Tebilis!!!"

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!"

"This battle was incredible! So exciting!"

"Tebilis truly lives up to his title as the top student of the Knights Academy; his strength is truly terrifying!"

"That guy named Kyle is pretty good too. If he hadn't been exhausted, the outcome might have been very different."

Meanwhile, Anna also successfully defeated her opponent, thus concluding the semi-finals.

Chapter 151 Anna: I'll hit Charlotte? Really?

"Welcome back to the San Casta semi-final match. I'm your host, Hugh."
