Chapter 270

…

Since the notice had arrived, the two had no reason to continue strolling.

They chose a road and walked back slowly.

At ten o'clock, they finally returned to the castle.

Dark sent Pandora to the tower of the Magic Academy and returned alone.

Back to the dormitory, there were the company of the magic elves again.

Life is like this, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?

…

That night, Dark had a good dream.

In a blink of an eye, it was Saturday.

Because it was the first time to duel in an open-air duel hall, he was actually quite cautious.

Put on the school uniform, pin the duel club badge, take care of the hair, turn around in front of the mirror, and feel good.

Dark took out the magic card, put the magic elves into the card one by one, and then put it into the card bag. Finally, he did not forget to bring the player card, and went out like this.

This morning, he made an appointment with Diana and Rose to have breakfast in the cafeteria, so he didn't bother Impmon.

Diana, who appeared in the corridor, gathered her long silver hair into a ponytail and tied it with a cute panda hairband. Her face was flushed and looked a little excited.

For the seven first-year students, today's rookie competition is the real first battle, which is very memorable.

Girls are delicate, sensitive, and pay more attention to the sense of ceremony.

On the other side, Rose was holding a paper sign made of cardboard, on which was drawn a silly big-headed bear cub and a golden cat with aloof hair, with a red heart in the middle, and a big "Come on" on the heart!

"How is it? Does it look good?"

Rose raised the sign and shook it in front of Dak, her face full of expectations.

Although Dak wanted to ask her why his symbol was a cat, he should give the lady who worked hard to give appropriate praise according to the etiquette of the nobility.

So he squeezed out a sentence: "Not bad."

Diana on the side smiled very cunningly.

...

It's rare for first-year students to get up so early on Saturday.

Classmates can be seen everywhere in the cafeteria.

Each of the seven duelists has his own fans.

Among them, Sarah Swati from the School of Magic, Justin Wayne from the School of Knights, and Teddy Doron from the School of Nobles have more fans because of their personalities and other factors.

Some people like Dak and Emma, ​​because they always stay outside the social circle, have only their own small circles.

But some people, on the surface, don't seem to have many fans, but when they really get to the top, they can get a lot of support.

Some people really don't have many fans.

It was about 7:30.

The first-year students set out from the cafeteria and walked towards the open-air duel hall one after another.

The atmosphere was just right.

Chapter 267 Dak Dimon's fans

The St. Marian open-air duel hall is roughly the same structure as the Roman Colosseum.

But under the magnificent appearance, there is a mystery.

The huge auditorium that can accommodate tens of thousands of people does not actually exist in the academy, but is distributed throughout the kingdom through a special mechanism.

In the era of lack of entertainment, duel competitions were extremely popular, and various new industries were derived from it.

Although St. Marian's duel competition was not the most authoritative, it was the most popular!

Every weekend, thousands of spectators entered the auditoriums in various places, and then watched the students' wonderful duels through nearly real magic projections.

At this time, at the St. Marian Duel Branch in the capital of the kingdom, carriages stopped one after another at the entrance of the hall.

After a whole week of busyness, going to the duel hall to watch a wonderful duel is just a reward for yourself.

But the atmosphere seems a little different today?

Old John stopped as soon as he walked out of the corner.

He is forty-six years old this year and is still a bachelor, but it is good to be able to survive in this era.

And he has recently found a way to make a fortune. If he can make a fortune through this, maybe he can really get rid of his singleness?

He glanced at the entrance of the hall.

The rise of the competitive industry is always accompanied by various kinds of gambling.

But he doesn't participate in gambling, he is just a small book seller - a small book with information about the players.

Every year at this time, new people will join, so he comes here on time to collect information in order to draw a new book.

But today's atmosphere...

John couldn't help but shrink back to the corner, frightened.

The family crests on those carriages are really scary!

Not only are there family crests of great nobles, but also royal crests!

"Wardian, what's going on?"

Old John was so scared that his legs went weak.

"Could it be that there are royal members among the newcomers today?"

He shuddered twice and quickly stepped back.

He couldn't watch any more.

If he was noticed by the royal guards, he would have no reason to explain.

He decided to wait half an hour before entering the venue.

...

In one of the royal carriages.

"Beast Sage" Claire Kate was squinting and stroking the back of the fat cat named "Galileo", as if recalling a certain touch.

Beside her, the Valkyrie, Alvette Saint Dimon, was talking intimately with the eldest princess, Eliza.

Ever since the eldest princess attended the Halloween party at St. Marianne, Alvette often chatted with her, and later, after Claire returned, she pestered Claire again.

She was always worried that her son would be bullied in the academy, and she didn't know if he was eating well or wearing warm clothes?

Would you feel lonely without your mother by your side?

Even though Eliza and Claire told her there was nothing to worry about, she still couldn't let go.

"I haven't seen my baby in almost half a year. I wonder if he has lost weight?"

Arvette looked far away, full of sorrow.

The eldest princess Eliza comforted: "Your Excellency, you will see it soon."

Arvette: "But honey, can he really pass the Duel Club assessment in first grade?"

Eliza's tone was filled with helplessness: "He is the winner of the Crimson Star."

Arvette: "Really?"

Eliza leaned back in her chair and looked up at the sky.

How could this normally smart person become like this?

After a few minutes.

They got off the carriage.

Almost at the same time, the eldest prince Charles also stepped down from another royal carriage. Accompanying him was the Archbishop of the Holy Church, a haggard old man.

The two sides looked at each other from a distance, and the eldest prince snorted coldly, then led the archbishop into the venue from the other side.

They came to see the "brave".

…

Saint Marian.

Duck followed the crowd into the open-air dueling hall and observed the venue facilities with interest.

This is his first time entering here. The dueling venue in the open-air dueling hall is obviously larger than the indoor venue. Each venue starts with 120X80.

The size of the venue will inevitably lead to changes in techniques and tactics.

In short, the pace slows down on the surface.

But the inner confrontation will only intensify.

He turned to look at the audience.

Before eight o'clock, the connection between the auditorium and the duel venue was not opened.

At this time, it seemed that there was no one in the auditorium, and the entire venue seemed quite deserted.

Students who want to watch the game have special seats inside.

It is a ring between the auditorium and the duel venue, and will not be projected to branches across the kingdom together with the duel venue.

"Then I'll leave first."

Rose held up the "Bear and Cat" sign and waved it, then walked towards the ring.

Dak and Diana showed their player cards to the staff and then entered the internal player channel.

"Which game are you in?" Dak asked.

Diana shook the sorting card, narrowed her eyes and said, "The fourth game."

Dak: "If the game is ten minutes, it will be at 8:30. Is there any chance of winning?"

Diana thought for a while: "A little, but really only a little."

Dak smiled and said: "Then try your best."

Diana said worriedly: "But if I try my best, I can't win."

Dak: "Then win it back next time."

Diana: "Same!"

She laughed immediately.

…

Slowly...

The ring was packed with people.

Not only the first-year students were here, but also many high school students, and some professors were also here.

Although the rookie competition cannot compare with the competition in terms of excitement, the unique energy of the newcomers can add a lot of color to the duel.

Professor Jones and Professor Fox sat side by side, and this time there was no vindictiveness.

Beside them, Professor Sylph and Professor Lily were also there.

But one is here to observe as the vice principal, and the other is just here to have fun.

A little further away, Professor Ryan Hakes and Professor Mitya Bartholomew were also there.

At eight o'clock sharp...

A phenomenon similar to space distortion appeared in the auditorium, and then one by one the audience appeared in the auditorium - they did not really arrive, but just existed like a projection.
