Chapter 233: Seven Swords Descend from Mount Tian
"Where's my buddy!"
Old Driver abruptly sat up, then stared blankly at the Magical Girl opposite him.
The purple-haired Magical Girl stood there expressionlessly.
Although that exquisitely beautiful face caused Old Driver to momentarily lose his senses...
An appearance so rare even among Magical Girls...
Even someone as worldly as Old Driver felt his heart skip a beat.
And then it really did skip a beat.
When he realized who the Magical Girl before him actually was, he immediately knelt down.
Honestly, his body's reaction was to faint.
But Old Driver didn't dare. He was afraid that if he fainted and opened his eyes again, he'd already be in hell.Everyone knew how ruthless the Azure Cloud Sect Master was. Fainting in front of her was no different from suicide...
Wait, where's my buddy!
Right now, his entire mind was filled with that kid Jiang Si.
My buddy is this Magical Girl's boyfriend.
If my buddy were still here, whispering some sweet nothings in her ear, I might actually have a chance to survive!
"You..."
Old Driver shuddered, almost losing control!
"Not from the New Witch Association."
Only when the other spoke did Old Driver's admiration for Jiang Si surge like a mighty river!
Buddy, you're something else, managing to hook up with this kind of girl!
Just opening her mouth is enough to scare the piss out of someone.
You can actually spend every day being lovey-dovey with this kind of girl? You're the true legend of the Witch Association!
As the other's gaze fell upon him, it felt like the sky was collapsing, that suffocating pressure.
Old Driver already felt like he couldn't breathe, like he was going to die.
What she looked like didn't matter anymore...
He didn't have the courage to look a second time. Even if she were as beautiful as a celestial maiden, it was useless.
How does that buddy stare into her eyes every day?
Trembling for half a day without managing to utter a word clearly made the other side impatient:
"Speak."
That one sentence instantly cured his muteness.
Old Driver quickly spoke, "Wo-words, words..."
"I'm asking your identity."
This buddy wouldn't have even told Shion his own identity, would he?
Old Driver didn't dare think too much, just kept kowtowing repeatedly, "Yes, yes yes yes, I'm not from the New Witch Association... nor the Witch Association! I'm, I'm under the Mirror Kingdom's Prince!"
The other didn't speak. Old Driver didn't dare look up, just kept hoping in his heart that his buddy would come back to save him.
Buddy, where the hell are you? Hurry back and take your girlfriend away!
I was wrong, I'll never envy your Magical Girl wife again...
"Mirror Kingdom's Prince?"
"Yes, yes! The Prince said, have me come to the Central Bureau, wait for a person, and send that person out!"
"Who?"
Old Driver thought for a moment, then honestly said, "Simo Tu."
"How did you know he could get in?"
"The Prince said he definitely could get in." Old Driver said honestly, "I just need to wait until things are over, then send him a message."
"When will it be over?"
"This, this the Prince didn't say."
Probably arranged for someone to wait until after Iris's Miracle Seed disappeared, then they could receive the message.
He could roughly guess the process.
The Prince had no way to send Simo Tu in, so she had Simo Tu figure it out himself. If there was a way to send someone in, she probably wouldn't have sought out Simo Tu.
The Prince's inside contact... or perhaps other source of information would wait for the news of Iris's Miracle Seed being stolen. Once they got the message, they'd immediately have the Driver contact Simo Tu to retreat.
They completely didn't consider what to do if Simo Tu couldn't get into the Central Bureau.
Should he say she was too naive or too trusting of Simo Tu?
However, in the end, the plan did succeed.
No matter how ridiculous the process was, as long as it succeeded, it was a good plan.
"How will you contact Simo Tu?"
This time, Old Driver hesitated for a moment.
Because if he said this, he'd probably be killed when he went back.
But he only hesitated for a moment.
Because if he didn't say it, he'd die right now.
Dead either way, so better to die later...
"There, there's this!"
Before the purple mana could flare up, Old Driver quickly pulled out the final tool the Prince had given him.
It was a small mirror.
"This is the means the Prince-sama gave me to contact Simo Tu."
In his panic, Old Driver directly pressed the button on the mirror.
"I, I can contact him, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Old Driver saw a glow from Shion's pocket.
Shion took out the crystal ball from her pocket.
It was the Witch Association crystal ball that only Xilan knew how to contact.
Old Driver looked at the flickering crystal ball, his throat moving.
He felt a bit dizzy for a moment.
"Maybe I got it wrong."
Old Driver immediately turned off the switch on the mirror.
The crystal ball in Shion's hand quieted down.
Taking a deep breath, Old Driver pressed the switch again.
Then, the crystal ball in Shion's hand continued to flicker...
Old Driver violently slammed his head against the ground, almost cracking his forehead open!
It's over, completely over, Prince-sama.
Simo Tu has already been taken out by Shion!
Such an important contact tool actually ended up in Shion's hands. Besides being taken out, what other reason could there be?
Who would have thought the Witch Association's new generation legend would end so muddle-headedly!
I've only been in the New Witch Association for three days, and the boss is already dead...
But now wasn't the time to worry about that!
I'm gonna die, gonna die, gonna die...
Even Simo Tu was taken out, how could I possibly escape!
At the very last moment, struggling, Old Driver pulled out his phone.
Shion tilted her head, looking at him expressionlessly.
Only to hear Old Driver tremblingly open the Magical Girl Idol Project:
"I, I pulled your character to max Constellation..."
The chibi version, condensed in size, made Shion's stature not too disadvantaged compared to other Magical Girls.
Instead, because her facial expression was captured well, she stood out exceptionally.
It had to be said, the Central Bureau really had some skills. They weren't just freeloaders relying on the Magical Girl IP. At the very least, the models, though chibi, were very lifelike, recognizable at a glance.
You could also tell it was made very exquisitely, with a porcelain doll-like texture.
"The, the Azure Cloud Sect said, those who pull Shion to max Constellation can, can avoid death once..."
Actually, Old Driver didn't hold much hope.
The character banner had only opened recently. Even among Disaster Control Bureau staff, few would pull for Shion.
Instead, quite a few Witch Association members pulled for her.
Old Driver had just heard that you could avoid death once with a max Constellation Shion. Though he didn't know if it was true, out of caution, having one more life-saving charm was better than none.
Steeling his heart, he spent a full three months' salary, forcefully pulling Shion to max Noble Phantasm, and even pulled her signature weapon, Buddha's Fury Lotus, to max Noble Phantasm.
Hard-pulling on a banner with no pity was painfully expensive. For a driver like him to get a full Shion with three months' salary was already considered incredibly lucky.
Everyone laughed at him for being a fool, including his fellow Witch Association buddies who thought he'd gone crazy.
Spending so much money because of an enemy's words? Maybe you just wanted to play and found an excuse.
When it really comes to battle, can you really kneel on the ground and show them your phone when an Azure Cloud Sect Magical Girl is unleashing a killing move?
Even if they see it, whether to keep the promise is up to them.
Why waste that money? Better to eat well on ordinary days.
If you really get caught by the Azure Cloud Sect, just close your eyes and wait for death.
All those doubts, all those jokes, were still fresh in his mind.
Until now.
Looking at the real Shion who glanced at his max Constellation chibi Shion, then turned and left.
He finally threw his head back and roared with laughter!
Pulling gacha really works!
The Azure Cloud Sect is truly the righteous leader of the world, they keep their word! Even letting a Witch Association member go, this will be a legend to tell later!
What bullshit Simo Tu, didn't he still die by Shion's hand? And I survived by spending three months' salary!
I am the true legend!
I'll go out and pull a few more max Constellations for future emergencies...
Just as he was laughing maniacally, about to get up and hurry out, the purple figure appeared at the door again.
Old Driver's legs went weak, and he knelt again.
Was she coming back to say she couldn't let him go this time? That would be too shameless...
"Go back and tell the Prince."
Shion just wanted him to relay a message. "Simo Tu will return a bit later. Have her wait."
Old Driver immediately sighed in relief again, somewhat ashamed for judging others by himself. How could the Azure Cloud Sect do such a shady thing?
"Yes, I'll definitely deliver the message for you!"
"Don't say it was me who said it."
"Definitely, definitely!"
...
Disaster Control Bureau Central Bureau, Five Tones Grand Plaza.
Although they had experienced some internal turmoil, the Central Bureau quickly restored order.
And now, most of the Disaster Control Bureau's Magical Girls had gathered at the Five Tones Grand Plaza. Although the broadcast kept playing calisthenics music, and the time was indeed the exercise period after the second class.
But of course, everyone wasn't here to do exercises.
In the center of the Five Tones Grand Plaza stood outstanding Magical Girls selected from various regions and from within the Central Bureau.
The lowest were Blooming level.
To obtain a Mental Landscape, one must first reach Blooming. Otherwise, the strength of one's Personal Reality wouldn't support Mental Landscape Expansion; coming would be pointless.
And entering the Mental Landscape trial also placed a burden on Blooming Magical Girls. The gap between Blooming and Blooming was common knowledge.
It's just that after the Azure Cloud Sect appeared, they stretched that gap wider than that between a human and a paramecium.
Therefore, those who obtained slots actually still had to go through another screening. After all, slots could be obtained through various methods. If they didn't meet the minimum threshold standard, it could potentially harm the Magical Girl and also waste trial resources for nothing. They had to pass another safety assessment to truly enter the Mental Landscape trial grounds.
And for the Disaster Control Bureau's Magical Girls, the leader was Hongmian.
Although her status in the Disaster Control Bureau wasn't low, Hongmian actually hadn't grasped a domain yet...
She glanced back at the Magical Girls behind her, her gaze falling on Keke and Silver Lotus.
"Keke, and Silver Lotus, come behind me."
She called out to remind them. The two girls were stunned for a moment, then moved over.
"Just follow me later."
"Oh..."
She still needed to take care of them. She heard both of them had close relationships with the Azure Cloud Sect's Sect Master, Shion.
Taking good care of them could improve relations with the Azure Cloud Sect.
Hongmian felt she was really good at social niceties.
Jincha always said she didn't know how to handle people. Hongmian felt her senior was really prone to prejudice.
Who didn't know social niceties? She just didn't want to bother...
"I think we should keep a bit more distance." Keke hesitated beside her. "I heard there would be combat... I'm afraid I might hurt you, senior."
Look at this, just look.
This was what truly not understanding social niceties looked like.
But she, Hongmian, wasn't someone so lacking in social niceties. She wouldn't get angry over a little girl's few words...
"Hmph, arrogant!"
Hongmian said as gently as possible. "How could a small place like Beihai know how terrifying the enemies set up by the Central Bureau are? It'll be funny if you get eliminated later."
Silver Lotus chuckled. "Just the misfits you have here?"
Keke immediately tugged at her friend.
When it involved the Beihai Disaster Control Bureau, Yiyi was particularly prone to losing her cool.
After all, ever since taking over the Magical Girl Combat Team captain position from Senior Hyacinth, Yiyi had felt a strong sense of mission, taking the reputation of the Beihai Disaster Control Bureau's Magical Girls very seriously.
Especially after losing her sister, this had almost become the pillar of her life.
Therefore, seeing the change in Senior Hyacinth had hit Yiyi hard.
But she quickly pulled herself together.
"Precisely because she changed, I mustn't become dispirited. I want to prove to her that Senior Hyacinth's past was definitely not a mistake, and I, who inherited her dream, will absolutely not fail!"
Seeing Yiyi like this, Keke felt she really wasn't suited for the Magical Girl captain position.
Because she didn't have such conviction or dreams. She just wanted to protect everyone, atone for her parents' death, or maybe add a little something, live up to Teacher Shion's expectations.
Because of this, when Hongmian belittled them like this, Silver Lotus naturally retorted without hesitation.
But fortunately, Hongmian herself wasn't angry, just scratched her head.
She just felt these kids were really something else, completely lacking in social niceties.
The other Magical Girls all snickered, not intervening. Many looked curiously at the two Magical Girls from Beihai.
Speaking of Beihai, the first thing everyone thought of was the Azure Cloud Sect. No one really paid attention to the Disaster Control Bureau there...
"Don't worry." She announced loudly to the other Magical Girls. "The assessment isn't difficult. It's just dealing with Disaster Beasts replicated by the Disaster Control Bureau!"
Immediately, the space of the Five Tones Grand Plaza changed.
They appeared on a vast grassland.
The Five Tones Grand Plaza possessed numerous magic arrays, allowing it to easily transform into the independent spaces designed by the Disaster Control Bureau.
And the Magical Girls outside, some leaning against classroom windows looking down, could also get a clear view of the situation inside the space.
It was both a trial and a performance.
Immediately after, everyone heard an earth-shattering roar, like an ocean, surging forth mightily!
Keke widened her eyes as the distant waves gradually became clear.
All were Disaster Beasts, and all were class B Disaster Beasts!
"The only difficulty is the numbers are a bit high."
"This isn't 'a bit high'!"
Magical Girls from other places couldn't help but shout, "There are way too many!"
Tens of thousands of class B Disaster Beasts, covering the sky and earth like locusts!
"They're just projections. But if you get hit, the pain and destructive effects are the same. Those who lose will be directly eliminated. Everyone, hold on."
By the time Hongmian finished speaking, those class B Disaster Beasts had already fiercely pounced forward.
The Magical Girls participating in the assessment all had some experience, after all, they were all Blooming-level experts. Although the numbers were truly exaggerated, they immediately steadied their minds and formations.
Susan and An Shiyu were watching nervously outside. Iris beside them hugged a huge bucket of popcorn. "Relax, it's all just intimidating. Back then, I used one Mediocre Work Three and suppressed them all. This is just testing mana capacity and mana control, whether it's enough to reach the Mental Landscape threshold. Keke and Silver Lotus will be fine."
An Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she had Senior Mùjǐn, Mùjǐn had long forgotten what the trial was like back then.
The senior was reaching the age of senility...
"I am not senile! It's just been too long, I can't remember. Hmm, when I participated back then, I also cleared all the Disaster Beasts in one go, hehe."
Over there, Iris laughed again. "I heard before, seems like just a few years ago, the Mental Landscape trial wasn't so perfected. The Disaster Control Bureau also couldn't replicate so many powerful class B Disaster Beasts, so there wasn't this segment... you just entered the Mental Landscape grounds directly after obtaining a slot."
An Shiyu glanced at Senior Mùjǐn.
This veteran Full Bloom Magical Girl guiltily averted her gaze. "M-maybe I remembered wrong."
Just as An Shiyu wanted to ask more, to prepare for when she also participated in the Mental Landscape trial later.
The Magical Girls watching from the building behind burst into cheers, even applauding.
Looking up, on the great grassland within the Five Tones Grand Plaza, one Magical Girl was currently suppressing the entire western Disaster Beast wave single-handedly.
"Wow, she really is amazing, Camellia!"
Iris even stopped eating popcorn, immediately clapping along. "Go Camellia!"
An Shiyu also immediately applauded, feeling some admiration.
Back when she first arrived in Beihai, it was Senior Camellia who helped recommend her to the Disaster Control Bureau.
Now seeing the senior who guided her display such power, An Shiyu felt some yearning.
Susan beside her muttered, "Still haven't eaten enough Perception Obstruction..."
"What's Perception Obstruction?"
"Nothing, just a type of fruit."
On the field, it wasn't just Camellia. Magical Girls from other regions like South China and North China's Disaster Control Bureau also each held back one side of the Disaster Beast wave.
Iris, holding popcorn in one hand, pointed down with the other, naming them off:
"Look, the one suppressing over twenty class B Disaster Beasts in the east is 'You' from the South China 'Rainbow Puppet' duo, total Disaster Beast subjugation rank thirteen. The red one over there is 'Chixing' from the East China 'Fruit Cheer Squad', total rank twenty-three. Both are famous idol Magical Girls."
"The one using demonic arts in the north is the West China Magical Girl Changyue, my outstanding junior. The one darting around the Disaster Beast group attracting fire in the south is Xiaoxiao. Her cultural course grades are terrible!"
"There are quite a few strong Magical Girls I know participating in this trial. I'm optimistic about them obtaining Mental Landscapes!" Iris nodded, grabbing a huge handful of popcorn and stuffing it in her mouth. "But none are as good as me, of course."
"Oh, Zimo is here too. This is her seventeenth attempt at the Mental Landscape trial. This time might be her best chance. Hope she makes it..."
Looking at the dazzling, colorful magical lights and everyone's intricate yet beautiful magic, An Shiyu couldn't help but feel a bit envious.
She whispered to herself, "Senior, why can I only punch?"
"Your magic can strengthen yourself. It's no worse than their flashy stuff! We don't need to envy..."
"I want to learn magic too..."
"Strengthening your fists with mana isn't magic? This was also taught by Shion!"
Just as everyone watching the great grassland saw the Magical Girls easily block the class B Disaster Beast wave's assault and breathed a sigh of relief.
The great grassland suddenly shook violently.
Iris's popcorn, not yet in her mouth, fell to the ground. "?"
She looked bewildered. "I don't remember there being class A Disaster Beasts?"
Boom!
Countless roots shot out from underground! The Magical Girls who were suppressing the Disaster Beast waves all cried out in surprise!
Many who couldn't react in time were directly pierced by the roots. Exiting their transformation state, they were immediately flung out of the great grassland, returning to the Central Bureau, just lying on the ground with mouths open and eyes closed.
Soon, people went over to help up the eliminated Magical Girls.
And when they looked back at the Five Tones Grand Plaza.
From beneath the grassland, more and more class A Disaster Beasts surged out.
Even Hongmian was dumbfounded.
She'd never heard there would be this many class A Disaster Beasts!
The gap between class B and class A Disaster Beasts was like the gap between Blooming and Seedling, completely different leagues.
And they couldn't truly ignore these class B Disaster Beasts either. The class B Disaster Beasts replicated by the Disaster Control Bureau had no Polluted Magic limitations. The endless corrupted magic power was troublesome to deal with in itself.
Suddenly so many class A Disaster Beasts popping up exceeded their handling limits...
"They won't all get eliminated, will they..." An Shiyu whispered.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
"South China system Magical Girls are best at handling pressure. I know this well." Iris pointed to the eastern side of the great grassland. "Look."
They saw Magical Girl You, who had just swiped a card, get slammed back to the Central Bureau by a class A Disaster Deer, falling to the ground, cards scattering everywhere.
"Swiping cards has delay, can't be helped. Can rely on high-skill plays. Look."
Magical Girl Chixing had just used a triple beam blast to slice off a class A Disaster Beast's head when three vines stabbed into her and tossed her out of the great grassland.
"Got counter-hit, can't be helped. Demonic arts can be cast without incantation. Look."
Dozens of spells erupted from the root cluster in the north, but couldn't stop the roots surrounding into a cage. As the formed cage suddenly squeezed, Magical Girl Changyue was out.
"No-incantation power isn't enough, can't break the roots, can't be helped..." Before Iris finished speaking, she saw the swiftly darting Magical Girl Xiaoxiao crash headfirst into a Disaster Beast's attack and explode.
"..."
"Don't worry, technical adjustment..."
All the Magical Girls flew into the sky, evading the Disaster Beasts crawling out from beneath the grassland.
However, upon taking off, everyone discovered vines had wrapped around each of their ankles.
The class A vine Disaster Beast that had once appeared in Beihai.
Massive amounts of mana began to be absorbed!
Camellia immediately severed the vines on her ankles, but that feeling of mana being drained still didn't disappear.
Only then did she realize a bunch of tiny spores had already appeared on her body.
Class A Disaster Beast abilities were troublesome to begin with. Multiple overlapping, and without internal conflict, it was truly a disaster...
Just as her vision darkened, mana consumption increasing faster and faster, and she was about to fall.
She saw cherry blossoms.
Delicate pink cherry blossoms drifted over the grassland, somewhat out of place.
The swirling petals fell onto the Disaster Beasts, then onto the Magical Girls.
Soon, the vines withered, the spores fell off.
Massive amounts of Polluted Magic were instead drawn away, purified into mana, and continuously supplied to the Magical Girls!
Both inside and outside the field, the Magical Girls turned their gazes to the pink Magical Girl continuously scattering petals.
Magical Girl Silver Lotus just extended a finger, catching one of the petals.
"Masterpiece True Eight."
On all Disaster Beasts touched by the petals, more petals rapidly grew, covering their entire bodies.
"Flowing Cherry Blossom Burial."
All Disaster Beasts covered by cherry blossoms instantly scattered into more, denser cherry blossoms!
Mysterious, romantic.
Yet, seeing the Disaster Beasts vanish without a trace, turning into petals.
It also carried a hint of eeriness and creepiness.
The endless wave of Disaster Beasts covering the entire grassland, in just a few blinks.
Became a sea of flowers!
"Who is that?"
In the silence, someone from the teaching building asked.
Susan below immediately announced loudly, "This is our Beihai Disaster Control Bureau's Magical Girl Captain! Remember! She's our Beihai Disaster Control Bureau's Magical Girl Captain!"
Inside An Shiyu beside her, Mùjǐn whispered, "Isn't she at odds with Silver Lotus?"
"Maybe they just pretend to be at odds..."
Never mind outside, even the Magical Girls inside the field looked at that girl covered in cherry blossoms, both shocked and fearful.
These petals were on everyone. If she turned them into petals like the Disaster Beasts...
Who knew if they could turn back?...
Hongmian also immediately suppressed the surprise in her heart.
After all, they were Beihai Magical Girls. Anything related to the Azure Cloud Sect wasn't simple...
"Careful, it's not over yet!"
Below, there were still Disaster Beasts not assimilated by the petals.
But they were clearly also badly battered, parts of their bodies even seemingly melted by the petals, leaving huge holes.
Several class A Disaster Beasts roared, making a last-ditch struggle, lunging up from underground!
The other Magical Girls hadn't even reacted yet... the petals concealed the mana aura too well. By the time they lunged, the Magical Girls could only create distance first.
However, Silver Lotus, who was using magic, clearly couldn't move. She was like a small tree, firmly rooted to the ground.
Hongmian and Camellia were the first to fly toward Silver Lotus. But beside Silver Lotus.
A red Magical Girl quietly stepped out from behind Silver Lotus, holding a lotus in her hands.
Compared to Silver Lotus's cherry blossoms, the red Magical Girl's lotus was far too violent, far too ferocious.
The scorching heat even caused the petals around Silver Lotus to wither.
Then, the Magical Girl, blazing like the sun, gently tossed the leaping flame lotus toward the large group of lunging class A Disaster Beasts.
Buddha's Fury Lotus.
The entire great grassland fell into silence, and this restless dead silence even spread outside the field.
Both the plaza outside and the teaching building lost their voices.
Then, that exquisitely beautiful lotus touched the Disaster Beasts.
First came light, blinding.
Then came heat, rising silently.
Extremely unstable shaking, then twisting, deforming.
Finally, tearing space apart!
Spiraling flames roared straight into the sky!
Breaking through the independent space, massive heat waves surged from the center of the plaza. The surrounding Magical Girls were even scalded, crying out as they retreated!
Continuous waves of flame heat rolled within the independent space countless times before finally calming down.
The endless grassland had all become charred wasteland, with small flames still flickering around.
Many Magical Girls were even knocked down by the aftershocks, only Camellia and Hongmian could barely remain airborne.
"Flying stream descends three thousand feet, suspected lava falling from the ninth heaven!"
Their thoughts were nothing more than this.
As for the Disaster Beasts, needless to say, even the scattered cherry blossoms were gone without a trace!
Apart from the crackling fire sounds, both the independent space and the Central Bureau plaza outside had fallen into dead silence.
"This is our Beihai Disaster Control Bureau's Vice-Captain!"
Susan's voice tore through the silence again. "The Light of Beihai! Also a student of the Azure Cloud Sect's Shion, the Magical Girl Ruri who defeated the Witch Association's captain!"
Someone even asked, "That Witch Association captain?"
"Correct, the very one you're thinking of!" Susan sneered. "Died in Beihai, killed personally by our Beihai Disaster Control Bureau's Magical Girl Ruri!"
Many people gasped.
The Witch Association's captain, that freak who could fuse with Disaster Beasts, was the Witch Association's legend before Simo Tu. Rumors said even Simo Tu was just a contingency left by the captain!
To actually kill that Witch Association captain, no wonder she's so powerful...
Many also remembered that this Magical Girl Ruri's trial slot was obtained by single-handedly winning the South China "Survive the Demon" tournament.
Beihai Disaster Control Bureau Vice-Captain, Witch Association Captain Killer, Shion's student, Survive the Demon Tournament Champion, Beihai's Hope, the fastest-promoted Blooming Magical Girl in history. So many titles bestowed upon her, yet her true self was only twelve years old!
The next era's representative for the Disaster Control Bureau after Kingfisher?...
Iris remained silent for a long time before finally taking a bite of popcorn. "I never expected the Beihai Disaster Control Bureau to have two geniuses who could catch up to me. Truly worthy of the place I once went to support, truly worthy of the juniors I mentored!"
What the hell does that have to do with you?
Susan inwardly cursed.
But An Shiyu beside her suddenly whispered, "When did our Keke become Vice-Captain?"
"Just now." Susan said without changing expression. "I promoted her. What, not allowed?"
An Shiyu just gave a thumbs up, showing a smile. "No problem, well done, junior! I support it too. It'd be even better if she could become Captain soon."
"That depends on Yiyi and her own thoughts..."
While they were discussing whether to help Keke get a promotion.
Another commotion arose. The central independent space shook, and several figures stepped through the void, landing within.
"It's the Azure Cloud Sect's seven true-transmissions!"
Instantly, even Magical Girls and staff from other places who were doing other things all gathered over.
Surrounding the entire plaza, packed tight!
Even Susan got a bit excited.
This time, they would finally see which of these seven true-transmissions was stronger!
