The next second, as the starting signal for the match rang out, Usamaru Renren took the lead, immediately using her legs to run around the arena at a speed barely visible to the naked eye, creating a powerful whirlwind that separated the arena from the stands.

This meant that spectators could only watch the battle between the two fighters through cameras on a large screen inside the arena.

On the screen, Stella remained unmoved after summoning Fei Long's Sin Sword, adopting an attitude of responding to all changes with constancy.

At that moment, Wan Tu Lian Lian, who was running like the wind at the edge of the track, had reached the highest speed she could currently achieve: the speed of sound.

The next second, a punch was thrown, the force of the punch turning into a sharp gale, a punch that could tear rocks and shatter cement, and once it landed on a person, it would turn them into minced meat.

Stella raised her longsword high and slashed down, the white smoke from the sword tip swirling in the air in a beautiful arc as the girl directly severed this sonic attack!

However, the girl's attack did not hit Usamaru Renren, because she left the spot after throwing the punch.

Immediately afterwards, more sonic punches surged toward her from all directions.

Upon seeing this, Stella burst into flames, and her sword swings quickened considerably, unleashing a flurry of sonic punches as she slashed and slashed across the arena.

Half a minute later, the storm that had been swirling around the edge of the arena gradually dissipated, leaving a slightly out-of-breath Usagi standing on the field.

Although even some A-rank knights wouldn't dare to directly withstand the girl's attacks, her innate magic power was too low. Even with Bai Zhe's favor, she only barely surpassed the level of a C-rank knight.

Trying to wage a protracted war against Stella, who is born with an A-rank physique, is already very disadvantageous.

As the rabbit stopped playing, Stella was already in front of her, pointing the sword tip at her neck and laughing as she said:

"I'm sorry, but I have won this battle."

Upon hearing this, Usamaru Koishi was not discouraged. Instead, she raised her hands and accepted her defeat with great composure, even offering her blessings to the girl.

"Ah, compared to a monster like you, I am still too weak."

"Go for it, Seven Star Sword Dance Festival, and win the championship!"

With Stella's current power, it's a foregone conclusion that she will represent the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival as the leader of the Po Jun Academy!

After a few more rounds of matches, the choice of fighters fell to Shizuku Kurogane and Ikki Kurogane.

Because they hadn't seen each other much when they were young, the two of them showed no mercy when they started fighting.

Unfortunately, Kurogane Ikki had already used the One-Sword Shura technique once during his battle with Shattered Lightning, and his magic power was now almost completely depleted.

Even though he desperately wanted to prove himself and kept pushing his potential to the limit, he was forced to use an unfinished move and put all his power into one strike.

The power of this attack was greatly reduced due to the exertion from the previous match.

Thus, Kurogane Shizuku, whose strength was almost on par with A-rank knights, gathered the water on the field into a water shield and barely managed to withstand it by using the flexibility of water.

After this attack, Kurogane Shizuku was exhausted, but Kurogane Ikki collapsed to the ground, completely drained of his strength.

After the girl won, the selection of participants from Hagun Academy to participate in the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival was decided: Stella, Toudou Touka, Kurogane Shizuku, Ayatsuji Ayase, and Kusakabe Kagami.

However, the flag bearer has not yet been chosen, so the girls need to continue the competition.

Then came the extremely brutal battles. Because they had trained together in the past, the girls were very clear about each other's fighting abilities and the fighting styles of others.

Due to time constraints, Shinomiya Kurono, after consulting with Hakutetsu, decided to have the five girls engage in a free-for-all. Only the one who survives to the end will be qualified to become the leader of this year's Seven Star Sword Dance Festival at Hagun Academy!

Therefore, the weakest of them all, Kusakabe Kagami, was the first to leave, followed by Ayase Ayase and Shizuku Kurogane.

Stella and Toudou Touka, being the strongest, naturally remained at the end.

The audience watched the battle between the two girls intently, not even blinking, afraid of missing a single detail of the electrifying clash.

Flames and lightning completely engulfed the entire arena. The two moved with lightning speed, and the clash of their swords was dazzling to behold.

The impact of the collision also caused cracks to appear on the field, and it could be said that the two players were even having a good time fighting in the end.

Stella raised her longsword high and said to Toudou Touka, "If this continues, we'll probably be dragging this out until tomorrow morning. Let's settle this with this one strike!"

"This suits me perfectly!"

Upon hearing this, Toudou Touka simply agreed with the girl's suggestion. Her pretty face, which had already removed her glasses, no longer displayed its usual gentleness, but rather a sharp edge like a drawn blade!

She immediately bent down, assuming a slashing motion, and the lightning that had been leaking out was completely contained on the blade.

The audience held their breath as they watched the two girls' actions.

next second.

"Dragon Slayer Secret Technique - Crimson Lotus Phoenix Sword!"

"Takemikaze - Futsu-mitsukami-kiri!!"

The scorching dragon flames that transformed into a phoenix collided with the lightning strikes that simulated a god, tearing apart the barrier protecting the audience seats in the arena.

Fortunately, Shinguji Kurono activated her ability in time after gaining the favor of Shiratsu, and having fully entered the realm of demons, she was able to control part of the space. She completely restricted the flames and lightning to the arena, thus preventing any casualties!

After the terrifying scene just now, some people were still trembling with fear, but they were still eagerly watching the match between Stella and Toudou Touka.

After the flames and lightning subsided, the two lay back to back, and it was Toudou Touka who fell first.

On the stage, Nishikyo Ningyin was not surprised at all upon seeing this.

“I knew this kid would win.”

There was nothing she could do; she was already quite talented, and she even met Bai Zhe, a benefactor who not only helped her awaken her true abilities but also taught her powerful swordsmanship.

As a result, Toudou Touka, who was also trained by Bai Zhe, was surpassed by the girl.

At this moment, Bai Zhe, who was in the audience, came up behind Xijing Ningyin. After hearing her words, he also sighed and said, "There's no way around it, that's the charm of numbers. Otherwise, why do so many people like to see big damage numbers when playing games?"

In this world of swordsmen, he is an insurmountable numerical anomaly—zero.

Chapter 45 Shinguji Kuro's Drift! (Please subscribe, vote, and give flowers!)

With the conclusion of the academy preliminaries, the once bustling arena has once again become quiet.

That night, Shinguji Kurono once again drove her stretch Lincoln, taking Shiratsu and the girls out to celebrate.

Although both Usamaru Koishi and Takatokuhara Kanata were narrowly defeated by Stella in the girls' group, the two girls still offered their sincere blessings to their teammates who advanced.

However, the celebration took a turn for the worse as it went on. It started when Nishikyo Ningyin began feeding Bai Zhe sweets mouth-to-mouth, and it turned into a battle for Bai Zhe.

This playful antics continued until after 10 p.m. before everyone returned to Po Jun Academy.

Just as the car entered the academy, the sounds of battle could be heard coming from the teaching building.

Stella, feeling a bit drowsy in the car, rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at the streetlights outside the window with considerable confusion, asking, "Are people still exercising this late?"

The one who spoke was Shizuku Kurogane. The girl looked at her roommate sitting next to her with almost disdain and said expressionlessly, "It's not training, is someone fighting? It should be someone from our school."

The next second, Shinomiya Kuro accelerated and drove the car to the battleground. Then, she swerved through a drainage ditch and separated the fighting group.

Although it was a battle, the boys, led by Kurogane Ikki, were completely overwhelmed by another group of outsiders.

Kuroko Shinguji slammed on the brakes, the tires screeching against the ground and emitting a foul, burning smell.

As soon as the car stopped, Xijing Ningyin immediately opened the car door and shouted, "Where did this brat come from, daring to cause trouble on my turf!"

As soon as she finished speaking, gravity suddenly acted on the attackers, instantly crushing those who had been fighting back against Kurogane Ikki and the others, forcing them to their knees!

Immediately after getting out of the car, Shinomiya Kurono asked Kurogane Ikki and the others, who were kneeling on the ground because of the battle, "Hey, Kurogane, are you guys alright?"

Upon hearing this, Kurogane Ikki wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and replied, "I'm fine."

At the same time, Bai Zhe and the girls slowly got off the car.

Both Kurogane Ikki and the other side, who were pinned to the ground by Nishikyo Nene's gravity and unable to move, showed expressions of surprise upon seeing this group of beautiful young women.

Kurogane Ikki was filled with sorrow. As fellow students of the academy, why were they suffering here while the other girls were living carefree lives outside?

On the other hand, the girls were shocked, not one of them possessed the strength of a mere B-rank knight!

"Judging from your uniforms, you shouldn't be from Seven Star Academy, right?"

As Nishikyo Ningyin raised her question, the person who answered her was Shinguji Kurono.

“That’s the uniform of National Akatsuki Academy.”

As someone invited to serve as the chairperson of the Po Jun Academy in order to salvage the academy's performance, she remembered the academy's logo that Po Jun Academy would face this year.

Upon hearing this, Nishikyo Ningyin showed a look of sudden realization.

"Oh? So it's that newly established college? I was wondering why it seemed so unfamiliar."

Just as she finished speaking, a flash went off nearby.

When everyone looked over, they saw Kusakabe Kagami, who was holding the camera, scratching the back of her head somewhat embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, it's just a habit..."

Stella, standing next to Kusakabe Kagami, counted the number of attackers and then asked Kurogane Ikki and the others not far away with a puzzled look, "The number matches exactly. How were you all compressed into this state?"

Upon hearing this, Mifuku Homura immediately said, "The abilities of the people on the other side are too unfair."

His gaze then fell upon the group of handsome blond boys opposite him, and upon seeing this, Shinomiya Amane said with a smile, "Who told you to be so weak~"

She was slightly surprised when she was freed from the gravity suppression of Nishikyo Ningyin and her companions.

She then heard the other person say, "As expected of the world's third-ranked Yasha-hime, even my abilities were almost unable to break free from this restraint."

Meanwhile, the black-haired man beside Shinomiya Amane also turned his gaze to Kurogane Shizuku.

These words were a huge mockery to Xijing Ningyin, especially since the man she loved was right there. This humiliating behavior only made her angrier.

“You ignorant brat, let me teach you a lesson on how to speak to your elders.”

The next second, gravity distorted around Shinomiya Amane and the others. Even though they were already on guard after what had just happened, they were still a step slower than Nishikyo Ning'er...

Under the immense pressure of gravity, the three not only made intimate contact with the ground, but the ground beneath them was also shattered and caved in.

However, just as Nishikyo Ningyin was about to reprimand her, her foot suddenly slipped and she fell backward.

However, she collapsed into Bai Zhe's arms, who had appeared behind her at some unknown time. His gaze, however, was indifferent as he looked at the shadows around the corner not far away, as if there was something there.

At the same time, Xijing Ningyin, whose shoulders were being steadied by Bai Zhe, asked with a puzzled look.

"How is this going?"

Upon looking up and seeing Bai Zhe's gaze, Xi Jing Ningyin immediately followed his gaze, and her expression instantly turned cold.

"Come out, you hiding thing!"

As Nishikyo Ningyin unleashed her powerful roar, the girls summoned their unique spirit costumes and became extremely vigilant.

The next second, as Xijing Ningyin pressed the iron fan in her hand down from above, the corridor opposite her collapsed, creating a cloud of dust.

At the same time, Shinomiya Kuroko looked intently at Kurogane Ryuma, one of the three lying on the ground, and asked him, "Does Kurogane Yan know that you joined Akatsuki Academy?"

Kurogane Ryoma's answer was very concise: "I severed ties with the Kurogane family long ago, and I don't need his consent."

This answer made Shinomiya Kurono shake her head: "Children's temper is 2 or 3."

Immediately, Shinguji Kurono ignored him and instead looked sharply at the collapsed ruins.

With her current level of perception as a demon, she could sense a powerful life force beneath the ruins.

As pieces of cement slid off the ruins, a burly man with one arm appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Good evening, everyone. My name is Wallenstein, and I am one of the twelve apostles."

After a brief greeting, he looked directly at Bai Zhe, who was standing behind Xijing Ningyin, and said with a serious expression, a stark contrast to his previous forthright manner:

"The main reason I brought my students here today is to pay you a visit."

The next second, the dragon's might landed, enveloping the entire Po Jun Academy, making everyone feel what it meant to feel pressure as heavy as a mountain!

Just as Shinomiya Amane had used her ability to break free from the gravitational pull, she was once again pressed to the ground.

Chapter Forty-Six: The Crimson Lotus Phoenix Sword! (Please subscribe, vote, and give flowers!)

Night fell inside the Po Jun Academy.

Under the gaze of a pair of burning golden eyes.

In the plaza, Wallenstein, known as the One-Armed Sword Saint and one of the two apostles of Rebellion, was struggling to use his ability to control friction in order to alleviate the oppressive weight of the dragon's might that weighed him down like a mountain.

Under the dragon's might, even the air vibrated, turning into blurry, visible black vertical lines.

That was an impact from the powerful force of authority on the will and soul!
