I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

Roland learned about the Academy Cup from Charlie.

Charlie's strength wasn't particularly strong, about on par with Elina, but he couldn't compare to a freak like Kannon.

However, he had some special abilities and was very good at running away. So he was a popular candidate for the Academy Cup.

Mentioning the Academy Cup, Charlie frowned and said, "This time, the advanced apprentices will probably all join. Although we also have a lot of advanced apprentices in our association, we have to divide our attention to deal with our own people. This time, it would be good to get into the top 16."

The people of White Chess Academy have always been united. But the Black Abyss side has a lot of internal strife.

The apprentices of the Black Abyss School, for their own benefit, always cause a lot of trouble. So the advanced apprentices of the Magical Chess Association have to deal with these people.

Roland felt a surge of pressure after listening.

His trump cards were all the kind that couldn't be used in public.

So, his current strength was actually about the same as Charlie's.

If Charlie, with the help of a large group of people, only had the confidence to enter the top 16, what ranking could he get?

He couldn't count on the advanced apprentices, and among the intermediate apprentices, the strongest were solo fighters like Alexandra Kannon.

So, Roland couldn't help but look at the low-level apprentices: "Among the new blood, are there any good mainstays?"

Charlie pointed his chin at Helena, who was chatting with someone not far away: "My good-for-nothing sister, and her group of little girlfriends, are the ones."

The two looked at each other—what's the point of even playing this!

Charlie said, "However, Helena is about to advance when she enters the school. These days are coming soon. It will be of some help. Moreover, although our individual strength is not strong, our overall strength is still okay. If low-level apprentices form a magic circle, even the instructors have to avoid it. It's just that our internal strife is too serious."

If there was no internal strife, and even if the academy only sent the Magical Chess Association, Charlie was confident that he could take the top three. He could even compete with the White Chess Academy, which always sits firmly in first place.

But it was impossible not to let others participate.

Roland's heart was filled with anxiety.

If I can only get into the top sixteen, how can I get the advancement potion and recipe?

At this time, the vice president suddenly walked in and announced that everyone should be quiet. Everyone knew that important people were coming, so they sat down one after another, and the hall was silent for a while.

Charlie suddenly tugged at Roland and whispered, "Roland, others don't know, but I know. If you want to get into the top eight this time, I'm afraid you'll have to sacrifice your looks. I know you don't have any contact, but can you handle the princess?"

Roland: "Huh?"

At this time, several instructors rushed over one after another to check the situation.

The layout of the hall was reorganized several times.

Later, several professors and a leader of the academy ran over in a sweat. Seeing that the emblem and slogan on the back wall were not done well, they scolded them and personally flew over to fix it for a while. They also took the instructors to rearrange the hall with magic.

This time, the leader was finally satisfied. He wiped the sweat from his head, gave some instructions, and hurriedly ran out.

The instructors all stayed behind, wandering around to maintain order in the hall. The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and the young wizards who had been clamoring just now were now silent.

Waiting took half an hour!

As a result, after waiting so long, they didn't even enter the door. They didn't even go on stage.

It seemed that they just happened to pass by the back door of the hall, so they stopped and took a look.

The young wizards in the hall turned their heads and looked sideways.

Everyone saw that leading the way in front were several leaders such as the directors of the academy and a group of elite wizards from the high towers.

In the middle were the vice president, several deans, several tower masters, and some well-known professors.

Ying Tao and Nading were also there. They were direct descendants of the White Chess family. They were relatives of the princess.

Princess White Chess was wearing a white robe, dignified and aloof. Her gaze was very indifferent, and she didn't mean to speak. It seemed that she was just here to take a look.

Miss Ying Tao was very close to Princess White Chess and had a very close relationship.

Seeing Princess White Chess's gaze fall on certain positions under the stage, a dean hurriedly leaned into her ear and introduced her to the popular candidates for this year's Academy Cup.

"That's Charlie, I don't know if you've seen him in the palace. Last time, he turned the tide and took eighth place."

Princess White Chess frowned slightly.

Ying Tao rolled her eyes to the side and muttered, "Zachary (the dean) really taught a bunch of trash. Catherine, there's nothing to see, let's go."

The vice president immediately felt a little embarrassed.

Nading smiled and said, "The young wizard next to him is also a dark horse. He is our ranger. This time, he got 135 points in the ranger mission, and also poked three magic eye nests. He caught more than thirty magic eyes back. A very remarkable young man. This time, we still have some chances."

Princess White Chess was slightly stunned, and looked at Roland with interest, surprisingly saying, "More than thirty magic eyes? Not bad."

Roland lowered his head in a sweat: 'Why is it Senior Sister? Is she a formal wizard?! Why is she looking at me like that? Where did I offend her again?'

In fact, last night, Senior Sister's emotions were so agitated and her magic power was so fluctuating. Her realm was already very obvious.

But Roland didn't focus on this last night.

Senior Sister's court dress, the Holy Grail, and Ying Tao's call, etc., all showed that Senior Sister's relationship with the White Queen was actually extraordinary. But Roland preconceived that the two only had a relationship of interest.

Senior Sister got the Holy Grail, in fact, a large part of the reason was to extend the life of the White Queen.

It's just that the White Queen doesn't know that Catherine is her old friend. Even if she knew, this patriarch would never agree to her sleeping with a mudblood.

The princess was not interested in the trash here. She took a look at the door and accompanied the princess to visit the major towers.

Many leaders and elite wizards followed and left. Nading shook his head and said, "It seems that they really look down on Roland, the son-in-law, it's just a name."

Ying Tao rolled her eyes and didn't say anything. She looked around the hall like a fox, with sly eyes, and waved to Helena and Charlie.

After the two left, the president and vice president walked to the front of the stage and began to organize the registration. Everyone would fill out a form. In addition, there were several special personnel who had to go on stage to let everyone know them. Then everyone could help 'take the exam' in the trial.

When the president called the names, the people under the stage were still discussing the princess's affairs.

After listening for a while, Roland suddenly realized. Catherine was a relative of the White Queen. After offering the Holy Grail this time, she was directly taken under the White Queen's knees as a daughter. She was a legitimate heir.

He thought to himself: 'So she is a personal disciple, no wonder she has become a princess. Senior Sister is really good at it. She coaxed the White Queen around and around.'

—"The White Chess family generally completes the marriage before advancing to the formal wizard. Otherwise, it is not easy to leave offspring. Has the White Queen already arranged a marriage for the princess? If so, the Black Abyss Academy will really have to change its name."

—"Impossible, the princess is already engaged. Like that Kai of the Red Skull, a reverse marriage (heartache)."

—"Fake! Do you believe the news written by the 'Chatty' newspaper?"

—"Didn't you see the name on the announcement this morning? The princess has already changed her surname!"

—"No way, I heard that that Allie is a bumpkin from the secular world and a rotten gambler. Why does she have to marry such a toad!"

—"Check it out and you'll know. I'm familiar with the instructor in the Academic Affairs Office. See if there is a person named 'Alexandra Allie', and you'll know if it's true."

—"Damn it! Kill him!"

Roland coughed and said to Alex next to him, "You guys talk first, I have something to do, I'll leave first."
