The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　Thinking ability, also known as [Awakening of the Spirit], is completed.

　However, this is not entirely a good thing for the functionality of the [Magic Brain Dropper] itself.

　[Brain Dropper] Once a mind is formed, the mind matter extracted using it will inevitably be affected.

　Its own intellectual pollution is tantamount to losing its most basic function.

　"Why think so much? Just buy a new one later."

　"Dark said lightly," and then began to tease the [Magic Brain Dropper] with great interest.

　"Heh!"

　[The Magic Dropper] suddenly opened its mouth and took his fingertip into its mouth, wet and warm.

　Time flies by, like a fleeting moment.

　It was as if I suddenly opened my eyes and it was already Friday, March 13th.

　This week's Golden Cup points competition, amidst the pink atmosphere of the upcoming White Day (Adolescents' Day),...

　The curtain finally rose amidst the encirclement.

　All the contestants preparing to compete in the main tournament are eager to try their best.

　The schedule for all three days of the competition was posted on the notice board outside the castle.

　The St. Marian Duel Halls, located throughout the country, have already widely announced this.

　This is a three-month-long grand event, a carnival for dueling enthusiasts, showcasing the dueling prowess of St. Marian Academy.

　For the only "orthodox" dueling enthusiasts, they also accumulate [resources/resources] through watching, cheering, spending, betting, and other means.

　Extremely involved.

　Within the college, students from all grades and colleges gathered in front of the notice board, regarding...

　This week's schedule has elicited a variety of opinions.

　"We didn't run into them again!"

　Someone squeezed in the crowd suddenly let out a long sigh.

　When people around him asked him why he sighed, he suddenly shut up, shook his head, and walked away.

　After he left, someone whispered: "That was the vice president of the support group for the Silver Dragon Girl Academy."

　Hey, right now the fan club members are all hoping that [Silver Dragon Girl] will be paired up with that second-year Dimon, but...

　Then they smashed his head open!

　"Hey, why do I actually quite like that Dimon?" someone couldn't help but wonder.

　The whistleblower then muttered under his breath, "They say it's that Dimon who wants to privatize his idol."

　Everyone: "Ah!"

　"Make way! Make way!" Just as everyone was wondering what was going on, someone suddenly pushed through the crowd, speaking in an unfriendly tone: "Who's talking badly about our little Darkie?"

　At that moment, Darko Dimon was checking the game schedule in his dorm room.

　This weekend, due to the increased number of participants in the "extra games," he was only allocated three games in total.

　But that was just a normal match; even after defeating two sixth-graders in a row, he still seemed to be treated as...

　Having set a small goal, I received quite a few challenge applications this week.

　According to the rules, he selected two matches.

　In this way, he will be able to play two more matches than the average player.

　If he wins all five matches, his ranking should climb several places from sixteenth.

　They might still have a chance to return to the top ten.

　In short, each of these five games was very important to him.

　While pondering, Dark checked out his opponents one by one.

　In the penultimate week of the [Golden Cup] qualifying rounds, there were still a few opponents among the normally matched opponents.

　He may not be competitive, but those who challenge him are all determined to defeat him, so his strength is naturally considerable.

　He may even be the strongest opponent he has ever faced.

　Instead of concentrating these events on one day, he appropriately distributed them over three days.

　There will be a regular match and a challenge match on Friday afternoon.

　There will be two regular matches and one challenge match all day Saturday.

　"Game 1 against Mike, Irving!"

　Mike Irving, now a fourth-grader, is a close associate of the president of the Aristocratic History Research Society and is currently attracting considerable attention.

　New star.

　Dark had an informal duel with him on a snowy Valentine's Day last year.

　During the Easter Duel Festival, there was another duel that was considered quite formal.

　At that time, Mike Irving's "Liquid Arms" left a very deep impression on him.

　Overall, Mike Irving is a formidable opponent.

　Dark had always had a good impression of him; he was the kind of senior from the same college who would greet each other if they met on the street.

　It's quite a coincidence that I got to play against Mike Irving in the first game this weekend.

　"In the previous two encounters, Senior Ou Wenxue probably held back. This time, he probably won't have the luxury of holding back."

　Dark carefully recalled the magic cards that Mike Owen had shown, but found that he could not simply confirm his deck style from his memories.

　Mike Irwin's interests are quite broad, and he doesn't follow a fixed pattern.

　Now that a year has passed, he has moved from the third grade to the fourth grade, and his deck should have undergone a huge overhaul.

　"In short, we cannot let our guard down and must hold onto every possible point we can get."

　After a moment of self-reflection, Dark prepared to further refine the deck's construction.

　But just as he opened the wallet, someone knocked on the door.

　"Who"

　Dak got up and opened the door.

　Instead, it was the second-year boys from the academy, led by Duolong, who appeared at the door.

　Dak, puzzled, asked curiously, "What's wrong, Doron?"

　Doron rubbed his hands together and said, "Well, today's game is very important, so we wanted to have lunch with you to boost morale."

　After listening, Dak took a long time to come to his senses, and then he was both amused and exasperated: "To boost morale, the athletes need quiet before the competition."

　Doron chuckled, then suddenly said, "You've misunderstood. What we need to boost is our morale!"

　"Yeah, yeah!" the boys behind him echoed.

　Dark had no choice but to say helplessly, "Okay, give me two minutes."

　As he spoke, he turned around, changed his coat, and headed to the cafeteria with Duolong.

　Upon arriving at the cafeteria, he realized he had been tricked!

　[Yeah, it's almost the end of the month, and our monthly tickets will expire if we don't have enough. Brothers, please use your little fingers to cast your free monthly tickets!]

　[We've gained over a thousand monthly votes today, so I'll release another chapter before midnight, and update tomorrow morning without delay.]

　"Seniors, we've met your requests, but what about ours?"

　"Seniors, you guys were supposed to have a social gathering, why are you all only interested in him?"

　"Seniors, you don't want Dark to be bullied in the dorm, do you?"

　The second-year boys from the academy sandwiched Dak between a group of brightly dressed girls, sitting four...

　The place reeked of decay.

　【暴怒+1】

　Dark rolled his eyes inwardly, then calmly began to observe the female students opposite him.

　Compared to the boisterous second-grade boys, the older girls, at least the third-grade girls, clearly showed more maturity.

　With just a glance, Dak spotted Senior Mali sitting in the corner and couldn't help but smile at her.

　Mary Bond, a third-year student at the Royal Academy.

　Dark's relationship with her has always been good—well, better than her relationship with Mike Irving, anyway.

　When Senior Sister Ma Li saw him looking over, she winked at him, her gesture revealing a playful side.

　Dark immediately realized that she must have come to join in the fun!

　"I wonder who these female seniors are."

　Dak shook his head and looked at the sixth-grade girl sitting directly opposite him.

　It's March now, and there are three months left until sixth grade graduation. Most sixth graders are...

　It's rare to see a sixth-grader as idle as her, busy preparing for graduation.

　However, Dark wasn't entirely unaware of her.

　His improved memory gave him the ability to remember almost everything he saw.

　Back then: After his duel with Claudia Meg, who was also a sixth-year student, he was in the corridor.

　I had met this friend of Meg once.

　He remembered Meg saying that a friend of hers had asked her to deliver a message and also to get an autograph.

　Thinking back now, that friend must have been the senior student standing right in front of me.

　"If Claudia May is in the patient ward, then this senior student who looks like the leader should also be foolish."

　The patient was admitted to the hospital.

　Thinking of this, Dark raised his head and smiled at Karin Newman, "What is your surname, senior?"

　Although Karen Newman has a goofy personality, she outwardly possesses a gentle, virtuous, elegant, and charming demeanor.

　The type that Dak prefers.

　Generally speaking, the older a girl gets, the more attention she pays to her demeanor.

　Especially in this academy where more than a quarter of the students are from aristocratic families, through comparison and imitation...

　Learning to be elegant is something every girl does secretly.
