Darkening Guardian Knight

As a former powerhouse at the peak level of the mainland, how could old man Caxi not even have such connections?

"It's not that you can't get it, it's that there's no need to get it." The old man saw through what the girl was thinking, and explained slowly, "If only those on the list can enter the Demon Refining Tower, Teacher, I will try my best to get you an extra place...but it's not."

"no?"

"Well, the number of places in the Demon Refining High Tower has never been strictly in accordance with the designated list, but is based on the actual entrant at the end. Do you know why?"

"I don't know..." Kate replied honestly. She didn't know before that besides getting enough points, there are other ways to obtain the qualification to enter the Demon Refining Tower.

"Ah, speaking of you are a freshman, it's normal if you don't know." Old man Kexi tapped his forehead and said, "Honglan School District has a challenge rule. When there is a quota limit for school activities, students According to this rule, the place competition can be carried out, as long as you win, you can win the place of the challenged person."

"It's still like this!?"

"Of course you can. After all, the college's resources are only supplied to those with stronger strength." Cauchy said, "But you have to pay attention, there is a protection period for new students. During this period, new students are immune to any challenges and the negative effects of challenges. .”

"That means other people can't snatch the quota for freshmen, right?"

"That's right...you understand what that means, don't you?"

"Well." Kate nodded in response, "If you want to get a place, you can only get it from the qualified old students. Is that the right meaning?"

"That's it." Coxi said seriously, "Since you have become my student, I must be strict with you. You should be able to handle this level of competition, right? Kate."

"I understand." Kate took a deep breath. "I still have a question. How can I get the seniors to agree to fight with me? If it's a challenge, if the other party doesn't accept it, then there's nothing I can do?"

"It's up to you to think about it yourself." Ke Xiyu said earnestly, "How to create a situation where the other party has to accept the challenge is also a test of your ability."

"Okay, I see." After thinking for a while, Kate said goodbye to Cosy, "Then I will go back early today, teacher. I have to think about how to snatch the Demon Refining Tower from the hands of the seniors." Qualifications."

"Well, you can think about it, this is your extracurricular homework." Coxi took a thick book from the shelf, threw it to Kate, and said, "The other book is about space magic micro-manipulation The detailed explanation transcript. Because this kind of book is relatively rare, you may not find it in the library, so I will lend you this one first. Remember to tell me about your thoughts after reading it.”

"Thanks, teacher." Kate was very grateful after receiving the book.

Recently, she happened to be looking for a book on this topic, and wanted to study and improve the sword skill "Dukong", which is a fusion of space magic and martial arts.

Through all kinds of failures, she understood that even though she had mastered the fusion method, she still lacked in the micro-manipulation of power.

If this shortcoming is made up, maybe he can successfully use that powerful sword technique!

"Come on, little guy." Coxi watched the black-haired girl leave, and muttered to himself, "The trial of the Demon Refining Tower is just the beginning. I hope you can catch it in time—the real one I mean." Chance"! "

No.20 At the beginning of the second quarter planning

"What!? Take a spot from the seniors? Are you crazy?"

When Kate told Flim the words of Cosy, the red-haired girl exploded in an instant.

But it is true that mere freshmen have to compete with senior students, and it is a bit unrealistic to think about it.

"Calm down, Flym. We are not without chance." Kate calmly analyzed, "Although the second graders are stronger than us, but that is also very limited. Most of the second graders in ordinary classes are only at the level of the second and third grades. .Even the best among them will basically not exceed level four."

"So what? Their strength is still much stronger than ours." Flinm has already started to retreat, she knows that Kate is only at the middle of the first level of magic, and she is about the same at the upper level of the first level. To face the second graders at such a level is simply courting death!

"Their strength may be stronger than ours, but the premise is that they can display their strength." Kate smiled and pointed to Flimm, "You have to know what is the most helpless thing for a low-level magician."

"The most helpless thing?" Flinm repeated Kate's words, and immediately understood, "Ah, so that's the case. Below level [-], magic cannot be cast instantly!"

Kate nodded: "That's right, that's it. As long as they are forced into hand-to-hand combat, their magic power will be useless, and the balance of victory will be tilted towards us. According to my observation, your martial arts foundation is pretty good, Flim , are you a second-level superior, or a third-level inferior?"

"Third-level inferior...by the way, how did you find out?"

"It's a guess. According to your performance in physical education class, I generally feel that you should be that strong."

"Do you want to use martial arts to restrain them? It is indeed feasible."

I have made some achievements in martial arts, which is an advantage.Flim also understands this, and Kate's idea is currently the most achievable solution to gain the opportunity to enter the Demon Refining High Tower.

And if this plan fails, nothing will be lost, at worst it will be ridiculed.But if he succeeds, he will earn a lot of money. In addition to being qualified to enter the Demon Refining Tower, he can also gain the attention of new students.

After thinking for a while, her answer was already obvious: "I know, let's do it."

"Well! But if you want to carry out this plan smoothly, there is one very important thing that needs to be resolved, Kate."

After agreeing, Flinm quickly realized another key point, "How can we get the seniors to agree to our invitation to fight? Generally speaking, those who have the qualifications to enter the Demon Refining Tower will be very cautious. It's hard to imagine them being challenged by anyone else in the meantime..."

"I have some ideas about this." Kate had considered this issue a long time ago, and she said in thought, "But how to implement it, we have to wait until the official qualification list is released—"

"Waiting list?"

"Well." Kate said, "We have to search for people who will definitely fight from the list!"

"Does that kind of person exist? There are not many militants in Honglan who will definitely fight... Most people with that kind of berserker personality are in Crimson, right?"

Flim asked suspiciously. In her impression, the people in the Magician Academy are basically calm. At least in this kind of big event about important quotas, it is almost impossible for those people to be stupid.

"It would be the best if there is that kind of person, but if there is a magician with such a berserk personality, then his strength will definitely not be too weak. I mean, I am afraid that we may not be able to win with the strength of the two of us." Kate is very honest, "I am not looking for that kind of person."

"Those who agree to fight with us are not necessarily belligerent—but they cannot refuse our challenge."

"Can't refuse? But according to the college's regulations, the challenged has the right to refuse the challenge." Flimm still didn't understand Kate's meaning.

"Then, just create an irresistible situation!" Kate said word by word, with excitement and fanaticism in her dark eyes.

"A situation that cannot be refused... is this possible?"

"It can be done!" Kate said seriously, "It should be said that it must be done!"

No.20 The beginning of the three-section planning

Three days later, the list of students qualified to enter the Demon Refining Tower was released, among which Joey Victoria and Austell Lan were impressively listed.

In addition, Kate also saw two acquaintances, and the names of Royard and Prince Jeno were also on it.

However, they are even more dazzling in the list of Class A of the first grade of the elite class.

It should be noted that in the Honglan School District, the strength of the elite class is so different from that of the ordinary class that it is difficult to measure. For example, a random person in the first grade of the elite class is probably as strong as the third grader in the ordinary class. .

Different from the ordinary class, the elite class has more quotas. Each class has twenty people, which is four times that of the ordinary class.

It can be seen that the elite class is the core of the Honglan School District, and the ordinary class is basically not on the table.However, many of those who can enter the ordinary class are students with terrible talents, so the college is not without corresponding policies.

There is a regulation in the student handbook that if a student in the ordinary class has the strength to enter the elite class, he can be promoted to the elite class after passing the assessment of the relevant teacher.

On the other hand, if a student in the elite class falls behind, what awaits him is not a simple relegation and assignment to an ordinary class, but being directly dismissed by Honglan School District!

However, this can also be seen from the side that the Honglan School District is strict. Kate estimated that the average third-grade students should have the strength of the third-level upper class. Royard's level should also be at the top of the third grade.

It's a pity that Kate didn't see the name of the pure white singer on the list, but at her level, there are probably better resources, so there is no need to fight for this opportunity.

Looking at the list, Kate was thinking deeply, choosing her and Flim's opponent.

It is not easy to find someone who will definitely agree to the challenge of the two.This requires not only analyzing the strength of the opponent, but also understanding its background.

Because they want to find an opponent who will not refuse their challenge.

"First of all, we must draw a line of strength." Under the severe situation, Kate was unusually calm, "We must first find out an opponent that can be dealt with by our strength. We don't need to be very weak, as long as we have a [-]% chance of winning , can be used as an alternative.”

"There is a [-]% chance of winning... Kate, you are the middle of the fourth level, that is to say, the two of us can choose to be around the fourth level at most?" Flym made some calculations in his mind, and came up with a rough result.

"For level four, it should be more difficult." Kate shook her head, "Most of the magicians who can enter Honglan have some cards that can leapfrog challenges. The power of the cards of level four magicians is generally above the peak of level four Yes, so it is a bit inappropriate to limit the upper limit to level four."

"Then... challenge the seniors of the third level?" Flinm's mouth twitched, "For the third level, there are only first-years in the elite class and ordinary classes. And because the first-years in the elite class are also freshmen, they cannot be robbed of their qualifications. All of a sudden, our range of choices is much smaller.”

"That's true, but there's no way around it." Kate took out a notebook from her pocket, and copied down the list of students in the second and third grades of the regular class. "Anyway, I'll go and see if any of these people meet the requirements. As for you, Flimm, go and make some preparations for the next challenge."

"Ready? Do I need to do anything?" Flimm was still confused.

"There are less than four days before the opening of the Demon Refining Tower, and the time is tight. We must settle the quota issue during this period, which means that we will definitely challenge the seniors in these few days!"

Kate said speechlessly, "If you don't start preparing for the challenge now, if you don't practice your skills, then you really don't have time."

"Oh! Kate, you're talking about this!" Flimm suddenly smiled, exposing her smooth but slightly muscular shoulders and said, "I've been exercising all the time! Now, I should be considered relatively strong among the lower-ranked warriors of the third level!"

"Well, that's good." Kate was slightly relieved when she heard this, "Flimm, your martial arts talent is actually quite strong. If you ask me, you are more suitable for the Crimson School District."

"Hey, if you say that you are suitable for Crimson, then you must be more suitable than me, Kate!" Flinm complained dissatisfiedly, "You must be at an elite level there, but you have to go to the ordinary class here Suffer, I really don’t understand you.”

"..." Kate was at a loss for words, and her heart was complicated.

"Well, everyone has their own little secrets, isn't it normal?" Suddenly, the red-haired girl laughed happily again, "Instead of guessing so many useless things, it's better to be honest and do the things in front of you first." Kate, don’t you want to find our opponents? Then look for them, and beat them seriously!”

As she said that, the girl punched forward fiercely, making a faint sound of breaking the wind.

"Afterwards, we will happily enter the Demon Refining Tower together, properly improve our magic level, and become stronger together—what do you say? Kate."

"Yeah, you're right, Flim." After hesitating for a few seconds, Kate let out a long sigh of relief and said, "In short, I will be responsible for finding a suitable opponent and challenging them, so you should hurry up and strengthen your abilities! To be honest, the martial arts at the lower level of the third level are still not enough."

"Whispering! I know!" Flimm said goodbye to the black-haired girl after snorting coquettishly, "Anyway, let's work hard! I hope our challenge will be successful!"

"Yes." Kate also responded simply, "I will do my best!"

"I will do my best!" After declaring this, the red-haired girl muttered to her heart and prayed to the sky, "Please, it will definitely go well!"

No.20 Elegant boy in four quarters

Mars Lauren's school life is still happy today.

As expected, although it is an ordinary class, as the fourth in the class, he has always been good in grades and naturally obtained the qualification to enter the Demon Refining Tower next time.

However, since he is already a second-year student, he no longer receives the special protection of the freshman period.

So there will always be a lot of challenge books sent to me recently.

Most of them are students from the same grade, but there are also many students from the first grade of the elite class.As for the senior guys, even if they beat themselves, they still can't take away their places to enter the Demon Refining Tower.

Because of the special rules for snatching places, it is invalid for students with higher education than themselves.

Of course, Mars wasn't about to take on those frivolous challenges.

Although Honglan School District encourages exchanges among students.

In addition to the challenger having some special rights and interests, the challenged person will be rewarded with additional credits.

But Mars didn't want to risk losing the spot to earn that little credit.

It would be great to be able to pass this time in peace, he is not so overconfident!

"So you came to my place? Lauren." The elegant young man in a clean suit with a black teacup in his hand was speechless after hearing Mars' explanation, "Don't you think that we are in the same situation. What do you want to come here? To draw trouble to me?"

"Hey, don't say that, Pope." Mars greeted the boy in front of him cordially, "There is a saying that goes, "There is strength in numbers.Isn't it just right, you are fifth and I am fourth, let's hug each other and help each other! "

"Do you dare to say that you didn't plan to sacrifice me in advance?" The elegant young man named Pope glanced at his bad friend and said angrily.

"Uh, don't worry! Our relationship is so strong, how could this happen!" Mars patted his chest and assured, "You, you are too suspicious, can't you trust me more?"

"No." The elegant young man took a sip of black tea, and the mellow tea fragrance permeated the small dormitory, "Instead of believing in you, I might as well believe in the rumors of angels descending from the world that everyone is spreading recently."

"Hey, what are angels? Can they be as strong as our academy's ninth-level tutor?" Mars smiled disdainfully, picked up the teapot next to the boy, and poured himself a cup. "Besides, if the rumors are true, wouldn't it be interesting? Thinking about the academy boss fighting the angel makes me feel excited!"

"If it is really an angel who descends and crushes our academy, then something bad will happen, right?"

"What are you afraid of? Anyway, it's not something we can get involved in. If the sky falls, there will be a tall man supporting it. In the end, it has nothing to do with us."

Mars drank the steaming black tea in one gulp, feeling comfortable all over, "This tea is not bad, Pope. Your tea-making skills have improved a lot!"

"taste good?"

"Very good!" Marth praised, "Seriously, how did you make this tea? Why is it so fragrant?"

"Maybe it's because I added some special condiments?" The elegant boy said honestly, "At first I was worried that you wouldn't drink it, so I added some spices that can accentuate the taste of the tea."

"What's more, maybe "I" was looking forward to your coming to drink tea... so I specially brewed it to taste better? The young man shrugged his shoulders, "No matter what, as long as the goal is achieved." "

"The goal...achieved?" Mars gradually became dizzy when he heard the meaningless words, "What the hell are you trying to say, Pope..."

"It's nothing, you'll understand when you wake up."

As the vision became more and more blurred, Mars finally couldn't even hear his friend's voice clearly.

He collapsed on the seat, unconscious.

The elegant boy straightened Mars's body calmly, raised his right hand, and made a small cut on Mars' thumb.

After that, he took out a square piece of paper from the inner pocket of his suit, then raised Mars' thumb and pressed hard on the lower right corner of the piece of paper.

The bright red thumbprint was fixed on the white paper like this.

"Is this enough?" The elegant boy put away the important papers and muttered to himself, "It's much easier to deal with Mars Lauren than to deal with Embis Pope... If I knew it, I would solve it first Mars Lauren's here."

As he spoke, he glanced under the bed.There lay Embius Pope himself unconscious.

"In short, the conditions have been gathered now - as long as the challenge is successful, Flinm and I will be able to get the qualifications to enter the Demon Refining Tower."
