Phoenix Star Martial Festival, the second day.

Today, the duel city of Asterisk is still crowded with people because of the Star Martial Festival.

The streets are crowded with people. The cafes, restaurants, cold drink shops and snack shops facing the streets are all full of customers. Many people even stay in various places and open the space window to watch the live broadcast directly on the spot, causing the entire city block to become crowded and even difficult to walk.

"I, I'm almost dying, senior."

Walking on the road, Toudou Qilin seems to be almost burned out. The whole person is swaying and looks like he may faint at any time.

There was no other way. It was too crowded along the way. In addition, it was summer vacation, and Asterisk was in the midsummer season. The sun was hanging high above the artificial pit lake, and the fierce sunlight shone directly on the hexagram-shaped duel city. The heat brought was definitely comparable to the hot wind released by the Black Furnace Demon Sword, which made Toudou Qilin sweat profusely and her face flushed red.

That would be fine, but the key point was that the two were not unknown people now, but the candidates for the Phoenix Star Martial Arts Festival with the highest online support.

At least 80% of the tourists who came to Asterisk came specifically for the Phoenix Star Martial Arts Festival, so many people had seen the appearance of Aize and Toudou Qilin and knew their origins.

In this case, when Aize and Toudou Qilin went out on the street, it was just like a world-class football star going out on the street, causing a big sensation.

So, along the way, Aize and Toudou Qilin didn't know how many people came to greet, cheer, ask for handshakes or autographs. They were not only squeezed by people in this hot day, but also surrounded by fans. They were really tired.

"Sorry, I didn't think it through."

Seeing that the girl was about to faint from the heat, Aize smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand and held her.

"If I had known, I would have come alone. Now even if I want you to go back alone, it probably won't be possible, right?"

Given this crowded situation, if Toudou Qilin went back alone, she might really collapse halfway from exhaustion.

The Star Vein Generation is known as the superhumans of the new era, but superhumans are still humans. Except for those witches or magicians with special abilities, the rest of them are no different from ordinary humans in places other than physical abilities.

So, when they should be tired, they will be tired, and under the influence of such horrible weather and road conditions, they are also very likely to suffer from heatstroke.

"How about I carry you?"

Aize made a suggestion, which startled the sweaty Toudou Qilin and made her shake her head quickly.

"No, no need, senior." Toudou Qilin seemed to cheer up a little, and said with a strong voice: "We are almost there, just hold on a little longer."

Hearing this, Aize turned his eyes and looked forward.

There, a large dome-shaped building caught Aize's eyes.

It was one of the only three large-scale stages in Asterisk, and it was also one of the stages with the second highest utilization rate after the Sirius Dome during the Star Martial Festival.

The preliminaries of the first week of the Phoenix Star Martial Festival were held in a main stage, three large-scale stages and seven medium-scale stages, but starting from the official schedule of the second week, the competition will only be held in the Sirius Dome and the three large-scale stages.

When the top four are decided, the only stage that will be used is the main stage of the Sirius Dome, and the semi-finals and finals will be held there.

The destination of Aize and Toudou Qilin's trip is one of the large-scale stages that will be used until the semi-finals, where the competition of the person he cares about will be held.

However...

"According to the current situation, by the time we arrive at the stage, the competition over there may have ended."

Aize himself is a little helpless.

If he had known this earlier, he might as well use the power of the black furnace and fly over wrapped in hot wind.

If he was not afraid that the hot wind would blow away ordinary people around when the heat of the black furnace magic sword was activated and the heat of the sword was released, causing them to be injured, Aize would want to fly over now.

"It would be better to train directly in the academy as planned yesterday."

Aize even regretted it a little.

Fortunately, the tourists today were clean and did not reach out to Toudou Qilin, otherwise, Aize would really regret changing his mind suddenly yesterday and deciding to go to the street to watch the competition.

"Then hold on a little longer, Qilin." Aize could only say to Dao Teng Qilin: "If you can't hold on, tell me and I'll carry you."

"Okay, okay." Dao Teng Qilin nodded dazedly and agreed.

In this way, the two of them moved forward on the road at a snail's pace, and it took more than an hour to reach the destination.

"Finally here..."

As soon as he entered the stage venue, the cold wind from the air conditioner immediately hit Aize's body, making Aize feel alive.

"Wow, I'm sorry, senior..."

Dao Teng Qilin had already fallen on Aize's back, hugged Aize's neck, and her voice was full of shame.

In the end, the girl still couldn't hold on to the end, and was carried on Aize's back.

"It's okay, we are partners, and I am a senior, it's my duty to take care of you." Aize said bluntly without looking back: "And you are not heavy, it's easy to carry."

Rather, it was a bit comfortable to carry.

Feeling the soft touch from behind, Aize suddenly understood why the animals who drove the girls liked to brake suddenly.

"Unfortunately, we still missed the game."

Carrying Dao Teng Qilin on his back, Aize turned into a remote corridor and said helplessly while facing the strange looks of the people around him.

"You can see the replay of the game online, but if you are not at the scene, you can't feel the flow of star power and see the details of the battle."

Under the effect of air conditioning, Dao Teng Qilin finally recovered some of her spirit and state. She lay on Aize's back, stretched out her hand to open the space window, and opened the replay of the game.

I saw a girl who was dressed quite boldly, with the female uniform of Leiwolf Black Academy opened wide, tied her coat around her waist, and only the swimsuit-like part of her upper body was left in the battle.

The girl held a huge sickle that was longer than her height. The blade of the sickle was blood-colored, and the front end of the handle was inlaid with a piece of purple Wanying Jingjing.

It was the pure star-bright weapon of the Leiwolf Black Academy - the Blood Scythe of Tyrant.

The girl holding the Blood Scythe of Tyrant was Irene Urseth, who ranked third in the Leiwolf Black Academy and was called [Vampire Princess].

Today, Aize came for her.

But now, her game is over.

Toudou Qilin watched the replay of the game and took in Irene Urseth's performance.

The opponent's performance was excellent, and the fighting power she showed was also extraordinary.

Although the Blood Scythe of Tyrant was so big, Irene Urseth was able to swing it flexibly, turning the huge blood-colored sickle blade into blood-colored arcs, constantly crossing the space of the stage.

Her skills were also very good. At first glance, it was obvious that she was very good at fighting. While waving the Blood Scythe of Tyrant, she also punched and kicked at any time, and easily suppressed two opponents by herself.

In this case, her sister and partner had no intention of going on the field at all, but just stayed in the back, quietly waiting for the end of the game.

Seeing this, Toudou Qilin was certain of one thing.

"It shouldn't be that easy for me to beat her."

This was when Irene Urseth didn't use the ability of the Blood Scythe of Domination.

Once the other party used the ability of the Blood Scythe of Domination, then, as Claudia said, she would definitely be qualified to compete for the top spot in the Star Guide Academy.

"Is the reason why the senior cares so much about her because of the Blood Scythe of Domination?"

Toudou Qilin thought so.

But, Aize shook his head.

"The Blood Scythe of Domination is just one of the reasons."

Aize didn't say anything more and even stopped.

"Senior?"

Toudou Qilin was slightly startled and just wanted to speak, but she found footsteps.

In front of this deserted corridor, two figures were walking towards this side at some point.

"That is..."

Seeing the two people, Toudou Qilin's face tightened.
