#124 - Chapter 124: Chuunibyou and Becoming a Magic Master

Friday's competition was divided into four rounds, at 8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, 2:00 PM, and 4:00 PM.

Each round was a single-elimination, best-of-one match.

There were 142 participants registered in Campus C.

Therefore, a format of 144 into 72, 72 into 36, 36 into 18, and 18 into 9 was adopted.

After four rounds, the top 9 who would participate in the semi-finals could be selected.

Although one person would get a bye in the 71 into 36 round, it wouldn't matter much; luck is also part of strength.

8:19 AM.

The second match of the first round was about to begin.

Qi Jing returned to the spectator area of Arena 7.

If there were no surprises, his next opponent should be the winner of this match.

"Li Luoluo, go! Li Luoluo is the best!"

Two girls standing next to them shouted:

"Luoluo will win! Luoluo is invincible!"

As roommates in the Combat Branch, they had come specifically to cheer for Li Luoluo's battle.

A voice came from behind Qi Jing:

"Song Teng, if you lose, just wait to be laughed at by us!"

Qi Jing turned his head to look; there were also three of them, probably also a cheering squad from the same dormitory.

He then remembered his opponent, Li Jiale, who didn't seem to have a cheering squad and was instantly defeated.

How miserable.

As Qi Jing turned his gaze to the central healing area, searching for Li Jiale's figure, a voice came from the arena.

"It seems we are both carrying the expectations of our entire dorm! Let's fight to the death!"

On the arena, Song Teng shouted at Li Luoluo:

"I shall emerge victorious, and you, will be crushed beneath my feet!"

How awkward!

How could he say such chuunibyou (delusional) words? The audience's toes were curling up, creating a Magical Girl Fortress.

His roommates were recording while laughing and saying:

"Let's see how many chuunibyou quotes this guy can say in today's match; I'll record it and count them properly."

"Yeah, record it, hahaha, so funny, look, even the girl opposite him is scared by him."

"That girl must be thinking if this person has something wrong with their brain, hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter."

Listening to their conversation, Qi Jing guessed that this classmate named Song Teng's ability required him to say chuunibyou quotes.

It couldn't be that he was really a chuunibyou, right?

Facts proved that Qi Jing was right.

Song Teng's ability was called "Even with Chuunibyou, I Must Become a Magical Master." By performing a series of chuunibyou actions, he could use magic; the stronger the chuunibyou behavior, the greater the power of the magic.

Fortunately, he was usually someone who could put aside his shame; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to use this ability at all.

Moreover, to better use this ability, he went to various anime conventions during the summer vacation to perform various chuunibyou performances, developing a strong heart.

Today was the first battle of his life!

"The match begins."

The referee teacher announced and jumped off the arena.

"Behold my Super Invincible Supreme Explosion!"

A fireball the size of a fist was emitted from Song Teng's right palm, flying towards Li Luoluo at the speed of a thrown stone.

Shouting chuunibyou quotes loudly when using magic could enhance the effect of the magic.

If he didn't shout anything, this fireball would only be the size of a ping-pong ball.

After Song Teng shot the fireball, he stared intently at Li Luoluo; how would she parry it?

She should dodge it first, right?

Song Teng was already preparing the second fireball, waiting to catch her in her recovery animation when she dodged to the side.

But Li Luoluo didn't dodge; she just gently said one word:

"Green!"

A beam of green light shot out from in front of her out of thin air, shooting towards Song Teng at an extremely fast speed.

This green beam pierced through the fireball, but its speed did not slow down at all.

Just as it was about to pierce Song Teng's Adam's apple, a playing card blocked it, intercepting it.

At this moment, the sound of the fireball exploding reached everyone's ears.

"The match is over; this female classmate wins," the referee teacher announced.

Song Teng didn't react at all; his hand was still delivering the source power to form the fireball.

How did he lose?

The audience was also very confused; they only saw Song Teng launch a fireball at the beginning, and when it flew halfway, a light flashed, and the fireball exploded.

Some people even thought that the light was an illusion, that they saw it because they didn't get enough sleep yesterday.

Fortunately, Qi Jing's eyesight was good; he saw clearly that it was the green beam emitted by Li Luoluo.

However, he didn't see how the playing card appeared.

When the referee teacher announced the result, Qi Jing noticed that the teacher was holding a few playing cards in his hand.

Expert!

Qi Jing carefully sized up this referee teacher; he was wearing a black suit and had a slicked-back hairstyle, looking like he was around forty years old.

Why didn't he stop Xiao Pi's lightning just now?

Could it be that he could tell whether a move could kill someone just by looking at it?

Seeing Qi Jing staring at him intently, the referee teacher smiled at him.

"It seems that the contestants of Arena 7 are all good at instant kills."

Xiao Pi just now, and Li Luoluo this time, both defeated their opponents with one move.

Song Teng walked off the arena in a daze; he was about to turn around and ask the teacher what happened when the teacher seemed to have mind-reading abilities and said in advance:

"The videos of each match are uploaded to the competition record section of Otherworld Jie; you can go down and watch them, and you can also turn on 0.01x speed to study them carefully."

"Thank you, teacher."

Song Teng walked towards his roommates.

"How did you lose? What did she do to you?"

His roommate asked in confusion:

"Why did your fireball explode in mid-air? Your strength shouldn't have lost, right?"

"I found the video; let's take a look."

A classmate put the phone in front of them, set it to 0.01x speed, and carefully examined this "supernatural event."

"Look, she opened her mouth, and a beam of green light shot out from in front of her; it was that light that blew up the fireball."

"It blew up the fireball and nothing happened? And it could continue to shoot at you?"

"Fortunately, fortunately, this playing card blocked it; otherwise, we would have been separated by life and death."

"What are you saying, what are you saying? It's clearly separated by earth and people; separated by heaven and people is a term used for people who go to heaven; he can only go to hell."

"......"

"That playing card is the referee teacher's ability, right? So powerful; it blocked the light without anything happening."

"I will become as strong as him too."

"You should beat that girl first before you say anything else."

Yan Cheng and the others also found the video of this match and watched it carefully.

"What is Li Luoluo's ability? So strong!"

"Qi Jing, can you beat her?"

Qi Jing pondered slightly.

"Yes."

Now he knew Li Luoluo's attack speed, but she didn't know his attack method.

As long as he instantly flashed to her side at the beginning of the match and slapped her away, it would be over.

Although her light speed was very fast, she still needed a chance to attack.
