In the world of anime and manga, the best partners

excited?

Of course, after all, how lucky must it be for such a powerful being to appear among the Queensville?

But at the same time, Pedra also felt a little...worried?

Yes, I'm worried!

With such a powerful presence, can the conglomerate behind Quenville really control her?

From a personal perspective, Pedra naturally doesn't want anyone to be constrained by the conglomerate, but that's simply unrealistic, because the conglomerate's power is spread all over the world, so what if you're powerful?

If one can be a thief for a thousand days, how can one guard against thieves for a thousand days?

In just a few seconds, Pedra gave up thinking about these questions, after all, these were not things that she could decide on her own.

But right now, there's clearly one thing that can be brought forward...

"Columbia, do you know about the 'Star Martial Festival'?"

"Of course I know. Almost everyone who comes to the Water City knows about the Star Martial Festival, right?"

"very good!"

After receiving a definite answer, Pedra offered her advice…

"Columbia, go and participate in this year's King Dragon Star Martial Arts Festival!"

"If you can win first place, your path to becoming a songstress will definitely become much easier!"

Columbia & Sandoni/Academic City: Chapter 18 Sandoni!

Star Warrior Festival.

The event, jointly organized by six major corporate conglomerates, adopts a three-year cycle system, namely the Phoenix Star Martial Arts Festival, the Griffin Star Martial Arts Festival, and the King Dragon Star Martial Arts Festival, which correspond to the two-person partner competition, the five-person team competition, and the individual strength competition. The champion can obtain the right to use one wish.

Compared to the Phoenix Star Martial Arts Festival and the Griffin Star Martial Arts Festival, the Wanglong Star Martial Arts Festival, which showcases individual strength, is actually more popular with the audience. After all, compared to complex multi-person battles, what the audience actually prefers to watch is a one-on-one real man's battle.

This year's Star Martial Arts Festival, held in the Water City, is the perfect stage for Wang Long Star Martial Arts Festival to showcase individual strength!

"If you can win the championship on such a stage, you can fully utilize the resources of the championship to assist your entertainment career. At that time, it's not impossible for you to surpass Sylvie and become the world's number one diva!"

"Of course, this is just my suggestion. What you want to achieve after winning the championship is your own business, and I have no right to interfere."

After briefly explaining the rules of the Wanglong Star Martial Arts Festival to the girl in front of her, Pedra stopped talking and looked at Columbia with a serious expression, waiting for her answer.

"So, would you like to participate?"

Pedra knew that Columbia was strong, but she didn't know exactly how strong she was, or rather...

With the abilities of those testers like Quenville, they simply couldn't measure Columbia's strength!

Since the incident with Milshaw, Pedra realized that Columbia's strength must be very high, so she secretly had the avatar test Columbia's strength.

But without exception, Columbia, just like when she went to school, simply hopped around the battlefield a few times and destroyed a large number of mimics.

This scene made Pedra's eyelids twitch, and it also made her have some unrealistic ideas about Colombia.

Quenway Girls' Academy, because its development path is completely different from the other five academies, focuses on idol training rather than combat training, and therefore has been at the bottom of the academy rankings for many years.

For Quenville's students, participating in the Star Martial Arts Festival was more about making a name for themselves than about winning the championship.

Team competitions aside, in individual competitions, Quenville has never won a championship.

Just when Sylvie finally emerged with the potential to challenge for the championship, another "Lone Poison Witch" appeared on the Revo Black side, shattering Quinnville's dream once again.

She thought that was the end of it, but the appearance of Columbia gave Pedra that idea again.

To date, no champion has ever emerged from the Wanglong Star Martial Arts Festival in Kui Enwei'er. If one could emerge, it would undoubtedly bring enormous benefits.

Moreover, anyone who can achieve this will undoubtedly become the world's most famous singer, possessing both acting skills and talent, and their future fame will definitely surpass that of Sylvie now!

Could Columbia do it?

"If it's Pedra's request, then I'll participate!"

Of course, Columbia would participate in the Star Martial Festival. After all, her mission in this world with Sandone was to win the championship and runner-up titles at the Star Martial Festival, so she certainly wouldn't miss any opportunity.

Columbia was initially hesitant, but since Pedra had brought it up, she decided to participate!

"And I also have my own little wish..."

Oh? Columbia's wish?

Petora immediately became interested.

"If you win the championship, what will you wish for?"

"I want to find my old friend Sandone... It's been a long time since I last saw Sandone, and I really want to see her again!"

Sandogne?

When she heard the name, Pedra felt it sounded vaguely familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before, but she couldn't quite place it.

However, with Quinnville's intelligence-gathering abilities, finding someone shouldn't be a piece of cake.

"Can you tell me about this Sandoni?"

"Maybe I can help you?"

-

Achoo—!

"What's going on? I even sneeze when I'm talking about myself?"

"Besides, I'm a puppet, why would I catch a cold!"

The central figure in the discussion, Sandoni, was currently holed up in his laboratory, showing no intention of going out.

After all, in Genshin Impact, "Puppet" is more of a researcher, and she probably wouldn't have ended her research so easily if it weren't for the Fatui mission.

"Pronia's equipment setup is almost complete. Apart from Columbia, no one she encounters at the Royal Dragon Star Martial Arts Festival can be a match for Pronia!"

"In that case, we should be able to complete the mission, right?"

During this period of immersive research, Sandonne has equipped Pronia with more combat modules, making her suitable for almost any opponent.

As long as the opponent isn't someone so strong that they can disregard the rules, Pronia has no chance of losing!

What if we actually lose?

joke!

If anyone can actually defeat a fully prepared Pronnia, I, Sandonne, will devour that module!

Ding-dong! Ding-dong! Ding-dong!

The doorbell rang as expected, and Sandoni was not surprised at all, because she knew that Yulis would definitely come looking for her.

After all, she only had one friend in this college!

However, the moment the door opened, an angry-looking Julis stormed in, staring at Sandone with a questioning expression.

"Santog!"

"You actually participated in the Wanglong Star Martial Arts Festival without telling me?"

"Why didn't you tell me? If you're going to participate, I definitely should too!"

Yulis's purpose in coming to the water city was naturally the Star Martial Festival, but she felt that she needed to settle down for a while since she had just arrived, so she did not sign up immediately.

I thought Sandone was the same, but when Yulis saw the list of participants, she immediately exploded.

Sandogne!

This guy's name was prominently displayed on the list of Wanglong Star Martial Arts Festival players, and he was also a seed player from Seidokan Academy!

Damn!

Doesn't Yulis know why this guy is a seeded player?

It was because he rashly challenged Sandone that he lost the ranking that was rightfully his. Therefore, Sandone is now the original twelve of Seidokan Academy!

"I want to do some research, so I signed up. Is there any problem?"

"With my abilities, I'm more than capable of participating in a competition like this, but you're far from it, Julis."

"You bastard!"

Although dissatisfied, Eurythmia had calmed down.

Indeed, having just arrived in this water city, she doesn't even have the strength to win first place in the Star Guide Hall, so how can she talk about winning the Star Martial Arts Festival?

Seidokan Academy ranks fifth among the six academies, only higher than the idol academy of Quenville!

"But even so, I won't let you go!"

"Let me help you train!"

"...You?"

"What, am I not good enough?"

"Of course you can, but... don't cry if you lose!"

PS:

Sigh, I couldn't stay awake yesterday and fell asleep.

Let's see if we can make up for it today...

Columbia & Sandoni/Academic City: Chapter 19 The Poisonous Witch

"You...you used way too much force, didn't you?"

"You mean me? I wasn't the one who used force, it was Pronia. If you're unhappy, go talk to Pronia!"

"It was indeed Pronia who did it, but... wasn't it you who gave the order?"

Although Julis always calls Sandone "you bastard," there aren't many people in the entire city who would talk to her like that; Sandone is practically the only one.

With Sandoni's occasional responses, the two could be considered friends.

Now, the two good friends have finished their hard training and are heading to a late-night snack shop in the floating city to eat their fill before going back to rest.

As for whether eating at night will cause girls to gain weight...

This is a world of superpowers!

How could a girl possibly gain weight?

Yulis's flames could burn fat, and Sandone wasn't even human, so that kind of thing would never happen.

"Speaking of which, this road seems a bit remote. Does it rarely get used to?"

"We're taking a shortcut. If you're scared, you can turn back!"

"I'm not a child. It's you... who's got a wind-up toy on your back, treating yourself like a child's toy?"

A conversation between two proud and arrogant people can easily turn into a bickering match if they're not careful. Both Julis and Sandone are well aware of this, but even so, they still enjoy exchanging ideas.

At first, Julis was clearly no match for Sandone in terms of words, but after so much time, she had more or less gotten used to those things, and even learned quite a bit.

Although they still can't beat Sandoni and Pronya, they're now evenly matched in verbal sparring.

In the end, however, Sandone's words were definitely more stubborn. After all, how could a human's words compare to a "puppet's" words?

"Wait! Someone's there!"

Because this is a shortcut, there are hardly any people in the area, and there are hardly any lights, especially at night when it's pitch black.

Fortunately, Sandone had night vision, and Eurythmia could release flames to see the way, so the two of them paid no attention to anything on the road.

However, just as the two were about to leave this dark place, Sandone reached out and blocked Euryth's way, looking solemnly at the grape arbor to the side.

In that area covered by grapevines, a figure could be vaguely seen, and... it seemed to be a woman?

"Who's there? Come out now!"

The moment Sandone reached out, Yulis reacted immediately, drawing her weapon without hesitation and aiming it at the figure in the shadows.

"It's been a long time, Julis..."
