The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　Then, amidst Shrek's maniacal laughter, the armed nine-star magical sprite delivered a fatal blow to Edwin!

　Although the nine-star magical spirit collapsed suddenly due to its "armor" after that attack, it had already brought Shrek Academy absolute momentum.

　This duel was full of twists and turns, fraught with hidden dangers and peril at every turn. Edwin Clarissa displayed the qualities of royalty, but ultimately she was no match for the commoner-born Shrek Holmes.

　In an instant, Shrek Holmes became a highly sought-after super talent in the eyes of powerful forces.

　Although he had already been recruited into (The Hidden Serpent).

　…"""""

　[A terrifying thing happened, guys! Around 4 PM this afternoon, I suddenly woke up in bed for some reason. The worst part is, I can't remember when I got into bed. It's like a piece of my memory is missing. I should have been at my computer typing away! Horrible, terrifying, so terrifying!]

　[Because I said I'd post it at midnight, I can only post 8,000 words for now, but I'll still post over 10,000 words tomorrow.]

　string (32340) "

　Among the contestants from the Noble Academy and the Knights Academy, besides Dark and Witt, Snake Harriman, Ada Sawyer, Mars Carey, and Shrek Holmes are actually members of "The Hidden Serpent".

　This round of duels is, in a sense, like an internal war within the "Hidden Serpent."

　Those forces that were eyeing the contestants probably never imagined that St. Mary's Academy would actually steal from its own staff (lol)... and actually strike first!

　However, without Shinto rituals, the academy would not actively recruit students.

　The duel between Shrek Holmes and Edwin Clarissa ended amidst thunderous cheers.

　At this moment, Shrek, as the victor, was naturally beaming with joy. But Edwin, who had been defeated in the duel, gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with fury.

　He hadn't felt such intense anger in a long time.

　But upon calming down and reflecting on it carefully, he realized it was just impotent rage. He quickly accepted his defeat and then, with remarkable composure, chose to remain on the contestant's platform.

　Viewing the post-match analysis projected from this perspective provides a more immersive experience, allowing you to identify your mistakes and oversights.

　The most important thing in a duel is to learn from your defeats and constantly improve yourself.

　His skill was unquestionable, but he lacked dueling experience. However, after watching the entire "post-match analysis" segment, he suddenly realized that it wasn't that he hadn't done well enough, but rather that his opponent had done exceptionally well!

　Shrek Holmes also reached the pinnacle of dueling.

　He is definitely better than him!

　Edwin Clarissa took a deep breath, completely convinced. He didn't linger on the platform, but instead descended to the ground using the lift.

　"The score is now 2-2!"

　The duels between the Knights' Academy and the Noble Academy have already taken place four times. All four duels ended in a draw.

　However, since the Knights' Academy won the last two duels, the morale of the Nobles' Academy became relatively low.

　The atmosphere between the students from both colleges in the circular stands was now even more intense, tense and on the verge of conflict. After these four matches, both sides' emotions had reached their peak.

　The athletes need to stay calm, but the audience doesn't.

　They try to control their emotions, but when they no longer want to, they naturally let them out.

　In the student area of ​​the academy, Diana and Rose also looked quite anxious, subconsciously kneading the little chick in their arms.

　Before the final scores are calculated, students tend to focus on the points gained or lost in each round of college matches.

　They certainly hoped their own division could achieve a narrow victory.

　Now only one duel remains. Whoever wins, that's the real victory!

　For at least half a day, they couldn't hold their heads up in front of the opposing department. So when the "post-match analysis" ended, the two departments suddenly raised their flags, waved them, and cheered wildly for their respective sixth-year students.

　Franklin Doron and Noah Sharp stepped onto the contestant's platform amidst such cheers.

　When Noah Sharp's half-body projection appeared in the air, the cheers from the audience instantly doubled.

　That's the kind of popularity he has!

　Noah Sharp not only possesses a handsome appearance and formidable strength, but also has a very distinctive character design.

　Born into a commoner family, he became a knight through his own abilities and later protected his homeland during a disaster, earning him widespread fame as a "hero".

　It was after that he was granted the title of Baron of Merit, which was not hereditary, and thus acquired the title of "Baron of the Night".

　In terms of character design, even Pandora Drogon cannot compare.

　In other words, there are more men than women in the audience, which is why Pandora's popularity is comparable to Pandora's.

　Compared to Noah Sharp's popularity, Franklin Dorron seems quite ordinary.

　But when he stood on the platform, his spine was straight, his face was cold, and he exuded a strong military temperament.

　On the players' bench on the side of the field.

　The remaining contestants from both the Noble Academy and the Knight Academy were watching the two players on the field.

　Edwin Clarissa apologized as soon as she came up, but Dark stopped her.

　There's no need. Besides, we haven't lost yet. Wouldn't it be too early to apologize now?

　At this moment, Edwin Clarissa clasped her hands together, rested her chin on her hand, and watched intently as the duel was about to begin.

　This duel will not only determine the outcome of this round between the House of Nobles and the House of Knights, but it will also be a duel that everyone should observe and learn from.

　Just looking at the two men in the arena and listening to the audience chanting their names, they couldn't help but feel worried for Franklin Doron.

　Noah Sharp is just too strong.

　Even though Franklin Doron participated in this Academy Cup specifically to defeat him.

　However, several contestants from the Noble Academy remained skeptical. In fact, Darke shared this sentiment. Of course, his reasons differed from the others.

　"Baron of the Night" Noah Sharp is a duelist who is on par with Pandora.

　He believed in Pandora's abilities and naturally dared not underestimate Noah Sharp.

　"Hopefully, Franklin can force Noah Sharp to reveal his trump card in this duel."

　Edwin Clarissa suddenly said something, then quickly glanced at Dark.

　But Dark knew without turning his head that he was being spoken to.

　But if he is forced to choose sixth-grade students for a challenge against someone from a higher grade, just how bad will the situation become?

　Before the duel began, the Noble Academy led the Magic Academy by a full 130,000 points.

　This means that in the duel competition, the Noble Academy can win even if it gets 30,000 fewer points than the Magic Academy.

　If we disregard challenges to opponents of higher levels, that means losing four more duels.

　Currently, it seems that the overall strength of the House of Nobles is not particularly inferior; at least it can still go toe-to-toe with the House of Knights.

　Yes, this is before the final match decides the winner. And if we also consider challenges against opponents of a higher level.

　The Magic Academy has Winnie Skadi and Pandora Dragon. Even if these two contestants challenge and win against all the sixth-year students, they can only get a total of 30,000 points.

　If Dark can defeat a sixth-year student on his own, he will receive 40,000 points, which is 10,000 more than the two of them combined!

　Wait... is it only ten thousand?

　Suddenly, Dark felt a vague sense of unease. But even if he was forced to be a sixth-grader, he didn't have to choose Noah Sharp, did he?

　In addition, there are two sixth-grade students.

　"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. There's not much I can do anyway. I'll just do my best."

　Dark shook his head abruptly, abandoning his thought and choosing to take things one step at a time. In the rules of the challenge against students of a higher grade, each person could only choose one student to challenge.

　Theoretically, each student can only accept one challenge. The round can only begin again once all the students in a grade who can be challenged have been challenged.

　The only reason he was chosen for Noah Sharp could be that the other two sixth-grade students had already been snatched up by the Hummings—hiss! Doesn't this turn into a game of who's fastest to grab them?

　"My head hurts."

　Dark temporarily turned his attention to the dueling arena.

　The two players have entered the "preparation phase," but the countdown has not yet started.

　In other words, this was still the part about bad breath. Unexpectedly, Noah Sharp spoke first. "Doron, after graduation, we'll be colleagues," he said casually, as if chatting about family. Franklin Doron's brow furrowed sharply, and he said, "I'm honored."

　From classmates to colleagues, if it weren't for family reasons, Franklin Doron even felt that he might have become friends with Noah Sharp.

　But reality is always full of helplessness.

　Standing on this contestant's platform today, he has only one goal: to win.

　Although they were from different departments, they had been classmates for six years and had a good understanding of each other's personalities.

　Noah Sharp, sensing Franklin Dorron's reluctance to elaborate, nodded slightly and said, "I hope we can have a great duel."

　Franklin Doron replied, "Yes." And then the duel between the two quickly began.

　Without much maneuvering, both Noah Sharp and Franklin Dorron chose to forcefully summon their nine-star magical spirits as quickly as possible in the first round.

　Their nine-star magical spirits form a system with the deck and are easier to summon than higher-star magical spirits.

　In fact, in typical magical duels, nine-star magical spirits are the main force.

　The duel that unfolded based on this was already exciting and entertaining enough. Dark recalled the information he had read and, through the magical spirits they summoned, reversed their thought processes.

　Noah Sharp's deck has always been based on the "Dark Dragon" series. The main magical spirits are all Dark and Dragon types, and this duel is no exception.

　However, for someone of his caliber, this is more than enough to handle any situation. Franklin Dorron's deck, on the other hand, belongs to the same set as Teddy Dorron—in other words, it's also a Dragon deck!

　However, Franklin Dorron's deck belongs to the "War Dragon" series, mainly consisting of War Dragons, and its attributes are not pure, having many secondary attributes.

　In addition, both sides have a special type of demi-human magical spirit—"Dragon People"!

　Some "Dragon People" Magical Spirit Cards can be considered as either Dragons or Demi-humans, making them a very special type of card. They are very convenient to use in conjunction with special systems.

　Furthermore, there is a possibility that "Dragon People" and "Dragons" can "merge" to form a Dragon Knight.

　The situation regarding Noah Sharp is currently unclear.

　However, Franklin Doron's records contain clear accounts of "fusion".

　However, it wasn't a fusion using a "Fusion" card, but rather a special fusion based on the special move of a certain Magical Spirit card.

　Before that, Franklin Dorron's trump card was the "Super Dragon Knight"!

　Although "Super Dragon Knight" is only a nine-star character, its three-dimensional attributes far exceed those of a nine-star character, making it an exceptionally overpowered type.

　However, that information is from the past.

　Franklin Dorron today is bound to make a breakthrough.

　Just like the nine-star magical spirits that he and Noah Sharp are currently summoning on the field, none of them are the kind recorded in the data!

　Both of them summoned brand-new nine-star dragon species!

　Noah Sharp summoned the "Black Abyss Dragon" with two L-shaped right angles on its head!

　Once summoned, the "Black Abyss Dragon" exuded a terrifying aura that instilled despair in people.

　Compared to Noah Sharp's most famous "Red Spine Black Dragon", the "Black Abyss Dragon" is significantly stronger, comparable to the "Sky White Dragon".

　The magical spirit summoned by Franklin Dorron is a nine-star sub-dragon species—the "Ice and Fire Twin-Headed Dragon"!

　The "Ice and Fire Twin-Headed Dragon," possessing an ice-attribute ultimate move, is effective against dragon-attribute attacks.

　However, once the two sides clashed, the disadvantages of the "Ice and Fire Twin Dragons" became apparent.

　It's considered top-tier among nine-star magical spirits, but compared to a nine-star dragon like the "Black Abyss Dragon," which has a ten-star stat line, it falls short.

　Furthermore, the "Desperate Breath" of the "Black Abyss Dragon" can prevent magical spirits hit by its dragon breath from using their ultimate skills for thirty seconds, which is equivalent to giving the opponent a silence skill.

　Thirty seconds may not seem like much, but the "Desperate Breath" of the "Black Abyss Dragon" also has a 30-second cooldown, allowing for seamless combos.

　If a magical spirit is not immune to such effects, then being hit by "Desperate Breath" is equivalent to becoming a pure magic spirit with no special moves.

　The [Ice and Fire Twin-Headed Dragon] was silenced and then utterly defeated because of this!

　However, Franklin Dorron made good use of magic cards to assist him and still managed to get through the first round without much difficulty. After drawing cards in the second round, he used magic cards to retrieve the true ace from his deck - "Super Dragon Knight"!

　"Super Dragon Knight" is only a six-star magical spirit. However, it can be Special Summoned as long as a dragon species is present, and its ultimate move, "Super Dragon Ride," can "fuse" it with a specific sub-dragon species to become "Super Sub-Dragon Knight"!

　Judging from the names "Super Dragon Knight" and "Super Sub-Dragon Knight", "Super Dragon Knight" seems to be stronger.

　After all, one is a dragon, and the other is a sub-dragon.
