"No problem, Headmaster, you can rest assured and leave it to me," Wen Xiangjie said with certainty.
"Good, good, good!" Hillman laughed loudly as he left.
Returning to the front of the rostrum, Hillman rubbed the flesh on his face and adjusted his expression.
When he sat down beside Danpier again, Hillman's expression was already one of slight anger and grievance.
"Headmaster Hillman, have you finished handling the matter?" Danpier asked with a smile.
"Hmm, just a small matter, don't let it delay Headmaster Danpier from enjoying the match," Hillman said in a sarcastic tone.
"Hahaha! Headmaster Hillman, what are you saying? This friendly match is to showcase the demeanor of our two schools' students, and it's not just for me to enjoy. Headmaster Hillman, let's enjoy it together!" Danpier laughed heartily.
Hillman looked at the smile on Danpier's face, and his mind replayed all the saddest things he had ever experienced in his life before he could barely control the upward curve of his lips.
Old man, just laugh. I hope you can still laugh later!
The registration period ended, and the friendly match officially began.
This friendly match was in the form of a continuous battle, where the winning side could continue to fight the next opponent until all the participating players from one school were eliminated, and the other school would then win the friendly match.
All the students participating in the match came before Helena to draw lots to determine their order of appearance.
Helena selected the top ten freshmen based on their card decks to participate in this friendly match.
Cheng Yushu, Ji Chenyu, and another student who had chosen the school plot branch were all prominently among those selected.
When it was Wen Xiangjie's turn to draw, Wen Xiangjie casually grabbed a lot, and just as she was about to pull it out, she found that the lot was firmly held by a force and could not be pulled out.
Wen Xiangjie looked up at Helena in surprise, and Helena secretly gave her a wink.
Wen Xiangjie released that lot and began to tentatively pull out other lots. After trying another one, the third lot, Wen Xiangjie pulled it out without any resistance.
She glanced at the number written at the bottom of the lot: 10, the last participant from their school.
Wen Xiangjie's lips twitched.
Their school's Headmaster was quite vengeful, specifically arranging for her to appear last, wanting the opposing Headmaster to be repeatedly slapped in the face when he was most complacent, until his face was swollen.
Older people are indeed more experienced.
"Wen Xiangjie, what number did you draw?" Cheng Yushu smiled and showed Wen Xiangjie the lot in his hand, "I'm number 5."
"I'm number 10," Wen Xiangjie also held up the lot in her hand for Cheng Yushu to see.
"You're the grand finale," Cheng Yushu made a relieved expression, "With you backing us up, I feel a lot less pressure."
Ji Chenyu still remained silent, quietly listening to Wen Xiangjie and Cheng Yushu's conversation.
He eyed the card drawer on Wen Xiangjie's left wrist, guessing the composition of Wen Xiangjie's card deck.
It was a pity that Wen Xiangjie drew number 10 this time. If the previous students were strong enough, it might not even be Wen Xiangjie's turn to appear.
Ji Chenyu looked at the number 9 lot in his hand, pondering whether he should go easy to allow Wen Xiangjie to appear and assess her strength in advance, or if he should go all out and not give Wen Xiangjie a chance to perform.
The contestants from both schools finished drawing their lots. Helena temporarily acted as the host, gave a brief opening speech, and then decisively announced the start of the match.
The contestants from both schools who drew number 1 walked onto the battle stage in the center of the sports field.
Wen Xiangjie sat in the contestant area, enjoying the battle below with great interest.
The students from both schools were of similar strength.
The victory of the first battle was taken by Wen Xiangjie's classmate, and the victory of the second battle was taken by a student from the neighboring school.
The players from both sides took turns entering the arena, and soon it was number 5, Cheng Yushu's turn to go on stage.
Cheng Yushu's strength was clearly superior to the players who had appeared before him, and he successively defeated nine opponents.
This was not only because Cheng Yushu's tactics were excellent, but also because Cheng Yushu actually possessed an Epic Mechanism Card.
The effect of this Mechanism Card was extremely powerful, and in Cheng Yushu's hands, its effect was doubled.
As long as Cheng Yushu got this Mechanism Card, the opponent was destined to lose the battle.
Now, the neighboring school only had one last contestant left.
Hillman looked at Danpier beside him, "Headmaster Danpier, your school only has this last student left."
"Isn't there still one left? Until the last moment, who knows which side victory will belong to," Danpier's face showed no anxiety at all; instead, he wore a brilliant smile.
This old man, he thought the same as me, arranging the best talent to appear last.
Laugh, go ahead and laugh as much as you want. When our school's Wen Xiangjie appears, I hope your dentures don't fall out from fright.
Hillman's face also couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile.
Cheng Yushu on the field was not happy about defeating nine opponents in a row; instead, his expression grew more solemn.
The neighboring school suddenly came knocking to co-host a friendly match; there was no way they wouldn't have something to rely on.
It seemed that this last student was the neighboring school's ace.
Now, his trump cards had been revealed in the previous four battles, but he knew nothing about the opponent's card deck, which was very disadvantageous for him.
A girl wearing the neighboring school's uniform walked onto the battle stage. She raised her eyes, and her pupils were actually golden, with star-shaped irises.
"Hello, my name is Yinaya," Yinaya performed a strange yet uniquely beautiful bow to Cheng Yushu.
"Hello, I am Cheng Yushu," Cheng Yushu returned a cupped-fist salute to Yinaya.
A die appeared simultaneously in front of Cheng Yushu and Yinaya. The die in front of Cheng Yushu showed 4 points, and the die in front of Yinaya showed 6 points.
"Both sides have entered the arena. First player: Yinaya. Second player: Cheng Yushu. The battle officially begins!"
Yinaya took out a card from her hand and threw it onto the battle arena. The card turned purple after entering the battle arena.
"Summon battle card Singer."
A pure white elf wrapped in musical notes appeared on the battle arena.
"Singer: Attack Power 1100 points."
It was an epic card!
The students watching were in an uproar.
"Another epic card! And it's an epic card!"
"Aren't we all freshmen! How come I don't even have a rare card, and they already have epic cards!"
"I remember in the freshmen friendly matches a few years ago, the highest-level card freshmen brought out was only a rare card, right? Are the freshmen this year all monsters?"
"I thought our school was going to win for sure this time, but now it's hard to say..."
