Ji Chenyu lowered his head, concealing the gloomy look in his eyes.
The so-called top students of First Military Academy were nothing but sycophants, fawning over Wen Xiangjie and speaking up for her, acting like her dogs, simply because she had high talent and good grades.
Heh, it was disgusting.
“I really didn’t do any of those things…” Ji Chenyu still denied in a low voice.
“You’re full of crap! I know best whether you used your talent on me or not!” Wei Zicheng pointed at Ji Chenyu and cursed angrily.
Wen Xiangjie: …
If she hadn’t said anything, this foolish boy really wouldn’t have noticed something was off.
“System, match me with this kid! I’m going to personally beat him up!”
Just then, the match results appeared on the electronic screen.
Wei Zicheng’s opponent was none other than Ji Chenyu.
“Good, good, good!” Wei Zicheng put his hands on his hips and laughed happily.
Ji Chenyu’s expression, however, turned grim.
Without a single epic card, a battle against Wei Zicheng was a guaranteed loss.
He had endured humiliation and worked hard for so long, only to end up at the bottom of the First Military Academy’s freshman rankings.
Looking at Wei Zicheng’s arrogant and smug expression, Ji Chenyu felt an even deeper resentment towards Wen Xiangjie.
If Wen Xiangjie hadn’t forcibly blocked his path, how could he not even defeat Wei Zicheng, this fool he could easily manipulate?
The Card Tournament venue was very large, allowing 64 players to start their battles simultaneously.
After Wen Xiangjie quickly dealt with her opponent, she went to the stands of Wei Zicheng and Ji Chenyu’s battle arena to watch the excitement.
Seeing that Wen Xiangjie was not returning to the VIP player area for the time being, the staff specially brought her a portable sunshade, which had an automatic cooling device and an adjustable reclining chair.
Wen Xiangjie took out another ice-cold little drink from the mini-fridge and comfortably enjoyed watching Wei Zicheng beat up Ji Chenyu.
“Shadow Leopard, directly tear apart that trash battle card on the other side! A mere rare-grade battle card, and it still wants to stop my Shadow Leopard?” Wei Zicheng commanded his epic card, Shadow Leopard, to once again tear apart the rare-grade battle card summoned by Ji Chenyu.
Ji Chenyu’s HP had already dropped to 1600 points.
“Hey, my Shadow Leopard is an epic card. Don’t bring out those rare cards of yours to make a fool of yourself. You can’t even touch a single hair of my Shadow Leopard!” Wei Zicheng crossed his arms over his chest, raised his chin, and said disdainfully.
“It’s already the last day, and you still don’t have an epic card. Isn’t that embarrassing? Don’t go around saying you’re a student of the First Military Academy in the future; it’s not enough to embarrass the school!”
The familiar taunts reminded Ji Chenyu of the nightmare in Gladiator Tower that day, and his hand holding the card began to tremble.
Wen Xiangjie used a fork to pick up a piece of chilled fruit and ate it.
Hmm, a real-life TV show is indeed more appetizing than a filmed TV show!
Wei Zicheng is simply a born villain, with that taunting expression, his natural performance is full of acting skill.
But, one has to admit, when this villain is on your side, helping you mock the person you dislike, it’s quite satisfying.
Wen Xiangjie picked up another piece of fruit and chewed it with a satisfied expression.
Wei Zicheng was also malicious. Relying on the fact that Ji Chenyu only had rare cards and could not cause any damage to his Shadow Leopard, he only used this one battle card throughout the entire process, eliminating Ji Chenyu’s battle cards one by one, slowly grinding down Ji Chenyu’s HP bar, prolonging the torture to the extreme.
Therefore, by the time this battle finally ended, Ji Chenyu was completely defeated. He lowered his head and hurriedly left the Card Tournament area, not knowing where to hide and wait for the game copy to end.
In short, he didn’t want to see the faces of Wen Xiangjie and Wei Zicheng anymore.
The Card Tournament progressed very quickly.
64 into 32, 32 into 16, 16 into 8, 8 into 4, 4 into 2.
The ones who ultimately stood on the final arena were undoubtedly Wen Xiangjie and Wang Zhizhen.
“I’m second! Me ha ha ha!” Wang Zhizhen, standing opposite Wen Xiangjie, laughed excitedly towards the sky.
One would think she had won the championship.
However, for Wang Zhizhen, getting second place was already the best possible outcome.
“Goddess, come on, let me witness the power of a legendary card!” Wang Zhizhen placed her right hand on the card drawer on her left wrist, her eyes shining as she spoke.
“Alright.” Wen Xiangjie smiled and nodded at her.
Two rounds later, Wang Zhizhen, who was instantly killed by Burning Fire Spirit, walked down from the battle arena with a bewildered expression.
Who was she? Where was she? Where was her HP bar?
It was gone in a flash? What kind of HP vanishing trick was this???
Qiu Meixin and Wei Zicheng, who had also been instantly killed by Wen Xiangjie, each gave Wang Zhizhen a sympathetic look.
They knew the feeling of being instantly killed.
Wen Xiangjie thus smoothly won the Card Tournament championship.
It was even easier than the final battle in the Magic Farm Game Copy before.
A kind-faced old man walked onto the awards stage with a trophy.
The audience below immediately let out fanatical cheers.
“Master Melville!”
“I finally get to see Master Melville! I came to the Card Tournament just to meet Master Melville!”
“Master Melville, you are my idol!”
“How envious that player is, to receive the award personally from Master Melville!”
Qiu Meixin asked softly in confusion, “Who is this Melville? He seems very prestigious.”
“Melville is the chief judge of the Card Tournament, one of the founders of the Card Tournament, one of the greatest Card Masters in history, possesses at least two legendary cards, and most importantly, it is said that he is the agent of the card god.” Wang Zhizhen explained to everyone.
“I see, no wonder these spectators are so enthusiastic.” Qiu Meixin suddenly realized, “Have you seen this NPC before? I’ve never heard any news about him.”
Wang Zhizhen shook her head, “He seems to only appear publicly during the Card Tournament each year. I only coincidentally learned about him and have never interacted with him.”
“Who cares about him? Anyway, once Wen Xiangjie finishes receiving her award, we can leave the game copy. When that happens, I’m definitely going to strongly accuse Ji Chenyu!” Wei Zicheng snorted coldly.
“Congratulations, young Card Master.” Melville presented the trophy to Wen Xiangjie.
“Thank you.” Wen Xiangjie took the trophy.
“The God Card is kept in a special room. Please follow me.” Melville said with a chuckle.
He led Wen Xiangjie away from the other side of the awards stage and took the elevator to the special room where the God Card was kept.
Inside the elevator, Melville chatted with Wen Xiangjie.
“You know how important luck is in this world, right? Although you are the champion of the Card Tournament, you have only obtained the right to choose a God Card. If you fail to choose, you will not be able to leave with the God Card.”
