Supreme Star Card Master

As Xia Yue shattered Lu Yi with a stunning Fiery Flame Red Lotus, the atmosphere in the arena reached its peak.

"As expected of Xia Yue from Demon Academy. She's incredible..."

"Top-tier genius plus ultimate pay-to-win. It's impossible not to be amazing..."

...

Xia Yue put away the Red Gemstone Wand and walked out of the Real Battlefield amid the astonished gazes and murmurs of the crowd.

The freshmen on the road automatically made way for her. Even after she sat down, many still glanced at her occasionally, continuing their discussions.

"There's no real difference between Demon Capital Academy and middle school..." Xia Yue felt both a bit bored and a bit disdainful.

From childhood to now, any event she attended, she was always the center of attention.

It was the same in Demon City. Now, coming to Demon Capital Academy, nothing seemed to have changed.

"I originally thought that girl named Lu Yi could pique my interest, but she was defeated as soon as I got a bit serious."

"Perhaps I should have stayed in Demon City. At least there, a few formidable people exist."

Xia Yue shook her head.

She initially planned to stay in Demon City. However, what was the point of staying there, where everything would be observed by that woman?

No matter how remarkable her achievements, her family would only think it was that woman's arrangement and care.

Achieving higher feats than her in Demon Academy was impossible.

To prove she was no less than her, she had to go to Capitol City or Demon Capital.

...

At the edge of the arena, Qin Jia checked the list and announced, "Next group, Yao Tianba challenges Luo Bingtong."

"Just in time."

Su Yuan's heart thumped slightly as he turned to look at Luo Bingtong beside him.

Luo Bingtong also looked back at him. Then, she silently walked out from the crowd towards the platform.

Mysterious Star Beast identity. Achieving the Star Apprentice Ninth Rank like him to pass the sixth layer of the Soul Comforting Mysterious Burial Tablet...

Su Yuan was curious about her overall strength. So far, he only knew she seemed to be an Ice Attribute Star Beast.

But up next, they should be able to see something.

Because the boy named Yao Tianba challenging Luo Bingtong was also no ordinary person.

"Make way!"

"Why are you pushing me?"

"Be careful!"

Amid the slight noise, a youth about 6'1" with developed muscles and dark skin stormed through the crowd and leaped heavily into the Real Battlefield.

The youth extended his hand. Star light surged, and a hefty black-golden iron hammer appeared and crashed onto the ground.

"Boom!"

The hammer hit the ground, causing a slight tremor. It was heavy!

The youth grinned and casually lifted the black-golden hammer with one hand, resting it on his shoulder.

"What tremendous strength!"

The watching freshmen were stunned. Some senior members recruiting for clubs on the stands also lit up their eyes, focusing intently.

This was Yao Tianba from Taizhou No.1 Middle School, ranked 33rd in the entrance exam, possessing a Strength-type blue Soul Card.

Yao Tianba scanned the surroundings loudly, "Where's Luo Bingtong? Come up here!"

Without Yao Tianba having to shout, a petite white figure had already reached the edge of the field and stepped in.

With silver hair and blue eyes, the expressionless girl Luo Bingtong caught everyone's attention as soon as she stepped on the stage.

"Youyou, look! This girl named Luo Bingtong is so tiny?"

"She looks so cute and dazed~~~"

...

"Damn, a white-haired loli? This is cool!"

"If it weren't for seeing her here, I would've thought she was a middle schooler."

"She's so tiny. Can she really face off against that muscle giant? I'm not sure I can bear to watch."

"Don't worry, man. She's a specially admitted student. She won't be as simple as she looks."

...

Everyone was quite surprised that Yao Tianba's opponent turned out to be such a tiny girl.

Their body size contrast was so significant, it felt rather jarring.

On the stands, Xiang Dingqian's expression grew serious.

If anyone's background Xiang Dingqian wanted to know the most, first would be Su Yuan, and second would be Luo Bingtong.

Among the specially recruited batch, Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong had test scores higher than his and tied with him, respectively.

Unlike himself, these two participated in the assessment while still being Star Apprentice Ninth Rank!@@novelbin@@

He hadn't understood it before. Now he could finally see what Luo Bingtong was capable of!

Beside Xiang Dingqian, Ye Qing was even more focused, staring at Luo Bingtong on the field without blinking.

Yao Tianba looked at the opposite-standing Luo Bingtong, quite surprised.

"I randomly picked an opponent, and it turned out to be such a little girl." Waving the iron hammer with one hand, Yao Tianba grinned, "Hey, do you need me to go easy on you? Otherwise, I might accidentally flatten you!"

Luo Bingtong quietly watched him, blinking as if she didn't quite understand what he was saying.

Then she opened her right hand, and amidst swirling frost and snowflakes, a snow-white long blade materialized.

The two stood still with their weapons, unnecessary for anyone to declare; the battle had already begun.

Yao Tianba retracted his arrogant stance and adopted a serious, heavy demeanor.

In reality, from the start, Yao Tianba hadn't underestimated Luo Bingtong in the slightest.

Although she was petite and harmless-looking, how could a student preselected by a Burning Sun level teacher be simple?

He had tried to provoke and distract her with words, but it had no effect.

Luo Bingtong stood there like a walking ice block, holding her long blade, unmoving.

"Can't figure it out. Then I'll just go for it!"

With this in mind, Yao Tianba charged forward with his hammer.

Midway, he leaped up. Gripping the heavy hammer with both hands, he began spinning it. A layer of golden light flowed over the hammer's surface.

"It's the Centrifugal Armor-breaking Hammer, Yao Tianba's trump card move, taking it out first thing!" One Taizhou No.1 Middle School student on the stands exclaimed.

The Centrifugal Armor-breaking Hammer used centrifugal force to efficiently compress Star Power and significantly enhance the hammer's power!

In an instant, Yao Tianba had taken three steps, spun three times, and reached Luo Bingtong.

By then, the hammer was glowing with golden light, emitting a fearsome aura!

Luo Bingtong still stood motionless.

"Not dodging?"

Seeing Luo Bingtong had no intention to evade, Yao Tianba furrowed his brows.

He worried that Luo Bingtong might have set up a trap unnoticed. At the same time, he feared his hammer might accidentally crush the tiny girl if anything went wrong!

But the two were now inches apart. There was no turning back.

Thinking that Qin Jia was watching nearby, he hoped nothing would go wrong. Gritting his teeth, Yao Tianba swung the hammer, larger than half of Luo Bingtong's body, down towards her head!

"Clang!..."

A high-pitched metallic clash rang out. A wave of white energy blasted out from the center of the arena.

In the center stood Luo Bingtong, right hand holding the blade above her head. The triple-powered hammer crashed against the snow-white slender blade and could not press it down!
