The son of the dragon who walks

Chapter 296 Reception and Elites Two-in-One

Kuroyuki Ikki stood together with other people from Pojun Academy, looking at those in the banquet hall with an unkind expression.

If it were an ordinary opponent, Kurogane Ikki wouldn't be so hostile given his character. The key to the problem is that those people were the terrorists who attacked Pogun Academy before - people from Akatsuki Academy.

This reception was actually organized by the competition operator. Although the Seven Star Sword Fighting Festival is a competition between seven schools, the contestants are all rising stars among swordsmen, and everyone may become the backbone of the Magic Knight. So before the game

It’s also appropriate to keep in touch with each other emotionally.

It can be said that if Rebellion attacks this venue, it will be enough to cut off the future of the island country's swordsmen.

However, those present were all excellent swordsmen, even stronger than most active magic knights. It was still quite difficult to catch them all in one fell swoop.

But this year's situation is different. There is an additional Akatsuki Academy among the contestants.

As an academy led by Cabinet Minister Tsukikage Tapiruga, Akatsuki Academy has officially qualified for the competition, so it can also participate in the reception.

It's just that Ikki Kurotetsu thought that these terrorists would not attend the reception shamelessly, but he didn't expect to actually see them.

Moreover, Yui Tatara of Akatsuki Academy put a blade tempered with highly toxic poison into the food Shizuku Kurotetsu was planning to take. Fortunately, Kurotetsu Ikki was sharp enough to knock down the roasted chicken, otherwise it would have been dangerous.

.

And it is precisely because of this that the good-tempered Kurogane Ikki is so angry.

Just as the two groups were confronting each other, the door to the banquet hall opened. A man and a woman walked in together.

After seeing the two people coming in, the two groups showed different expressions.

Everyone in Pojun Academy had joyful smiles on their faces, and the atmosphere at Akatsuki Academy became solemn.

Of course, the behavior of the Akatsuki Academy group was also different. Some were fearful, some were indifferent, and some showed fighting intent.

Stella held Ciel's arm, and the two walked up to Kurogane Ikki.

"Long time no see, do you miss me?"

Kuroyuki Ikki smiled and punched Ciel on the shoulder with his fist and said, "Just come back!"

Charles turned his head, his smile disappeared, and he said coldly: "I just said something was wrong with the atmosphere. It turns out you guys are here too!"

Ciel only showed a little bit of hostility and made everyone at Akatsuki Academy feel like they were facing a formidable enemy. He even manifested his own spiritual equipment.

There was a tense situation caused by Tatara Yui's behavior before, but other people in Akatsuki Academy had no intention of participating.

But as soon as Ciel appeared, everyone in Akatsuki Academy became nervous. After all, the person in front of them had defeated them all not long ago.

Especially Tatara Yui, who was closest to Ciel, was no longer as arrogant as before, and the hand holding the chainsaw-shaped stock friend's spiritual suit began to tremble.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, as if a war would break out at any time.

"This is a cocktail party, not a place for fighting. If you want to fight, please come to the arena two days later. I also look forward to sharing the outcome with you."

The voice was calm, but full of pressure. As the voice came, three people came over.

The leader was a tall young man. He was not wearing a formal dress but was wearing a special slightly ancient school uniform from Wuqu Academy, with a short cloak on the outside.

He wears a scarf on his forehead, which makes him look particularly masculine with his thick figure.

The boy is one of the biggest favorites in this Seven Star Swordsman Festival. The previous Seven Star Sword King, (Naniwa Star) Morohoshi Yudai.

It can be said that he is the person at the top of the island country's student knights. No wonder he has such momentum.

The two people behind him were the same people who stood on the podium of the Seven Stars Sword Fighting Festival with Yudai Morohoshi last year.

This is the layout of the most prestigious school in the island country, the Buqu Academy, which has long dominated the Seven Stars Swordsmanship Festival.

Wearing glasses and doing everything from her hair to her clothes meticulously is last year's runner-up Byakuya Jonosaki.

The girl with a band-aid on the other side of her face is the third Asaki Taki.

As soon as the three people appeared, the entire banquet hall became solemn because of their strong presence.

Charles originally didn't want to fight here, so he put away his hostility.

Others in Akatsuki Academy also relaxed and took back their inherent spiritual equipment one after another.

Only Tatara Yui, who took the initiative to stir up trouble, felt that she was being laughed at by everyone just like the clown.

And she also attracted everyone's attention because she did not take back her inherent spiritual equipment.

Zhu Xingxiong opened his mouth and said: "The Seven-Star Sword Martial Arts Festival is just around the corner. I can understand that you are so excited, but should you calm down?"

If Morohoshi Yudai's accusation was considered polite, then Byakuya Jonosaki was directly mocking him.

"Really, taking out your inherent spiritual equipment in a place like this makes people have to doubt your character.

However, inherent spiritual clothing will reflect the character of the owner, and you are really as vulgar as your spiritual clothing."

Tatara Yui smiled angrily and said, "This noble young man's conduct is not helpful in battle. Do you want me to let you experience it for yourself?"

Saying that, Tatara Yui directly started the engine of the chainsaw spirit suit, and pointed the tip of the knife at the three people from Wuqu Academy. To be precise, it was aimed at the leader Yudai Morohoshi.

But she stopped before she got really close.

Zhu Xingxiong laughed and said: "It seems that you still have some strength! If you casually step into the boundary of my attack, I don't guarantee that I will stab you with this thing."

Zhu Xingxiong didn't know when a golden spear appeared in his hand, and the tassel behind the spear tip was like the hair of a tiger.

Facing the Tiger King, the unique spiritual equipment of Morohoshi Yudai, Tatara Yui knew that he had no chance to attack.

Ciel showed an expression of appreciation. Although he didn't take action, Ciel had already seen the powerful spear skills of Zhu Hoshi Yudai.

Whether it was the shot that few people present saw clearly or the flawless posture just standing there, it all shows the weight of this Seven-Star Sword King.

Especially in terms of dominance in cross-fields, he is unrivaled among swordsmen of the same level. No wonder he can suppress Todou Toka's unique sword-cutting skill - Raikiri.

This is also the reason why Tatara Yui dare not step into that field.

Beside Ciel, Kurogete Ikki said: "Ciel, do you see clearly?"

Charles nodded and praised: "It's very powerful. I really don't know how to create that Qi that has been tempered for thousands of times. In short, he is a good opponent, isn't he?"

According to the schedule, Kurotetsu Ikki and Morohoshi Yudai are in the same competition area. As expected, the two will meet on the field soon.

Kurogane Ikki nodded and said, "I can't wait!"

Ciel smiled and didn't say anything. Kurogane Ikki is like this, he pursues victory but also enjoys fighting against powerful opponents.

Not to mention him, even Ciel wanted to fight Morohoshi Yudai. Of course Ciel would limit some of his own strength, otherwise the battle would be no fun at all.

"Ahahaha! Are you all in high spirits?"

There was a thick voice, and Charles saw a strong man two meters tall walking over.

He has a beard and a rugged appearance, and even the uniform he wears cannot conceal his bear-like physique.

"But no matter what, we can't waste food. Our farmers work hard to raise chickens so that you can enjoy delicious chicken. If you don't taste it, it will be a waste of our hard work."

Although the strong man considers himself a farmer and looks very mature, he is actually only one year ahead of Kurogane Ikki.

One of the top eight in last year's Seven Stars Sword Fighting Festival, the third grader of Lucun Academy (Steel Bear) joined Koi Koiji.

Kaga Renji came over, picked up the bone-in chicken that had been knocked to the ground by Kurogane Ikki, mixed with the poison-quenched blade, and stuffed it into his mouth directly.

Kurogane Ikki wanted to remind him but he didn't have time.

You know, according to Tatara Yui, there are several alkaloids added to it, and one lick is enough to poison an elephant.

But such a highly poisonous substance was chewed up by Kaga Kenji along with the blades, bones, and chicken and then swallowed into his stomach.

"He's from Akatsuki Academy. This poison can kill an elephant, but it can't kill me!"

Kaga Renji is still so angry that nothing happened after taking the poison.

"Is this guy really human?"

This was what everyone present thought, but Tatara Yui said it directly out of surprise.

Ciel couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Although the superpower system in this world has various limitations, it has to be said that it is really excellent in some aspects.

For example, Kaga Koiji showed a strong physique at this time.

Ciel believed that if he didn't use magic power, his resistance to toxins simply based on his physical constitution would not be able to reach the level of Kaga Koiji.

Ciel also heard that there are swordsmen in this world who can perfectly piece the broken body of a person back together, even if the person is exploded, he can save it.

When he first heard about it, Ciel thought it was outrageous, but after seeing it more, it was no longer surprising. After all, superpowers involve the power of laws, and their mystery is extraordinary.

Before Tatara Yui could recover from the surprise caused by Kaga Renji's inhuman physique, she immediately encountered a new situation.

A woman in a white coat hugged him from behind.

"Okay, I'm doing an examination, please be good and don't move!"

The woman in white clothes kept moving her hands on Tatara Yui's body as she spoke.

The members of Akatsuki Academy are all mercenaries from the dark world, and Tatara Yui has been active in the dark world as a killer before.

For killers, how to hide themselves and get close to the target without being discovered by the target is a required course. At the same time, it has become instinct to be wary of all those who approach.

But the woman in white not only approached her, she even hugged his body directly.

This surprised her even more than when Kaga Koiji used poison as a condiment.

Charles recognized the woman in white. Her name was Yakushi Kiriko, and she was a third-year student at Lian Zhen Academy.

But she is better known to the public as a national-level magic knight and the number one doctor in the island country.

The operation that Charles heard about before was done by her to put the broken human body back together.

Her abilities are the same as those of Kuroganeju Shizuku, but she is a water sorcerer whose level is far above that of the latter.

When she approached Tatara Yui just now, even Ciel could only vaguely feel it. Because she turned her body into water vapor, she approached him silently.

And seeing Tatara Yui obediently reaching out to take the medicine that the pharmacist Kiriko gave her, and looking at her surprised face, it was obvious that she didn't want to reach out.

Charles said softly: "Is it by manipulating the blood to directly control the opponent's body? He is indeed the best doctor in the island country. This level must be terrifying when used in battle!"

Kurogane Ikki also nodded. It would really be a headache if he encountered such an opponent on the field.

Fortunately, although Yakushi Kiriko has been selected to participate in the team for three consecutive years, she did not appear in the first two years, and this year should be no exception.

Tatara Yui was completely manipulated by Yakushi Kiriko, but she had no intention of regaining face.

There were so many swordsmen who were qualified to compete for the Seven-Star Sword King. How could she be the enemy of so many people by herself? So she could only leave in despair.

After Tatara Yui left, the atmosphere became much more harmonious.

Zhu Xingxiong took back his spear spirit equipment, but his aura did not diminish.

He looked at Ciel and said: "You are Ciel, right? I heard that you withdrew from the competition. It's a pity. I still want to fight with a strong man who can win or lose with that (Biyi)!"

Ciel understood that Zhuxing Xiongdai did not provoke him, he simply wanted to challenge the strong.

So Ciel replied: "If you still have this idea after the Seven Star Sword Martial Arts Festival, we can find time to discuss it."

Zhuxing Xiongda smiled and said: "Really? That's great!"

On the side, Kaga Koiji said loudly: "I can't pretend I didn't hear this, please let me see your strength too!"

Pharmacist Wuzi said on the side: "I am different from the two of them. As a doctor, I don't like fighting."

At this moment, another group of people came over, making the harmonious atmosphere turn cold.

Ciel looked at the Black Iron King and said: "Why, do you want to come too? But you should also know that my attitude towards you is different from that towards them, and I may not necessarily kill you directly this time."

"

Ciel was originally mocking the Black Iron King, but the Black Iron King said, "It's exactly what I wanted. I have no regrets even if I die when I challenge you!"

Seeing the serious expression on the Black Iron King's face, Ciel couldn't help but feel speechless. Because he could feel that the Black Iron King was completely serious.

For a man with this kind of consciousness, Ciel will continue to regard him as an enemy, but he will not underestimate him.

But for the other person, Ciel didn't have the same mood.

"If you look at me like that again, I won't mind killing you right here."

Charles turned his head with a disgusted expression, because the man next to him looked at him with a look of obsession mixed with madness.

That was the clown wearing a mask, and he was none other than Reisen Hiraga, the most mysterious figure in Akatsuki Academy.

And his entanglement with Ciel also started very early.

At the beginning, when Ciel and Stella were assisting the student union in investigating the Okutama Mountains, he attacked them with a rock puppet.

Then when Akatsuki Academy attacked Pojun Academy, he also only sent out a puppet, which was then simply destroyed by Ciel.

"Are you a puppet again? A mouse is a mouse and will never see the light of day!"

Although the puppet was very lifelike and even conveyed the emotions of the operator, Ciel still did not notice the breath of life.

So until now, Ciel doesn't know the true identity and appearance of the manipulator.

However, Ciel's words that were tantamount to insults made Reisen Hiraga's emotions even stronger. Ciel had to suspect that he had some serious illness.

I really want to tell him that the last person who looked like this in front of Ciel was Yuuto Shijing, and he just became famous not long ago.

Hiraga Reisen said: "You are indeed back! Do you want to see me? Don't worry, we will meet soon!"

Charles sneered: "Really? Then I'm really looking forward to... how to burn the real you to ashes."
