Collapse: The opening system captures the Herrscher of Knowledge

In the next few days of competition, Xiaozhi swept the knockout rounds without a single defeat, and his journey was unimpeded; and Mei☆ also returned to the ring with the help of the "popularity revival" mechanism and won every round.

In the contestant lounge, Sanyueqi, who had also advanced thanks to his flexible and versatile bow and sword techniques, as well as good luck, pointed at himself with a bewildered look and asked in disbelief:

"I beat Xiaozhi? Is that true?"

Xiaozhi crossed his arms and looked at the cowering Sanyueqi, his tone full of matter-of-factness:

"What's wrong with fighting me? It's just a formality. You just need to go on stage and admit defeat loudly. I've already decided who will be the champion."

March Seven whispered:

"But that's too embarrassing!"

Xing added:

"Actually, you have a little privilege, which is that you can choose other opponents."

Sanyueqi's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly asked:

"Okay, okay! Who else?"

"Thunder Mom." Xing's answer was concise and clear, without a trace of sympathy for March Seventh.

San Yueqi was stunned on the spot, the smile on his face froze, and only questions filled his mind: "???"

She quickly suppressed her shock, forced a smile, and clasped her hands together in a pleading gesture:

"Xing, are there no other opponents? A slightly weaker one will do! Onegai, Wadasi, as long as it's not Xiaozhi and Mei☆nee-san, I can even hold Pam while I sleep!"

Fu Ming couldn't help but joked:

"You won't take any loss, so how about fighting me?"

March Seven said without hesitation:

"Fu Ming, you didn't even participate in the competition, why are you joining in the fun?"

Xing put one hand on his waist, looked at her like this, and said slowly with an expression of "I really can't do anything with you":

"In that case, there's only one candidate left, who barely fits the description of 'slightly weaker'."

"who is it?"

March 7 immediately asked, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Luka, the Iron Arm, from Beloberg." Xing paused, then added, "But he's already lined up his opponent."

Sanyueqi was immediately trembling with anger, and punched Xing with his weak fists:

"Ahhh! What are you talking about? In the end, it's still a choice between Shinobu and Mei☆!"

A quarter of an hour later, the roar of cannons outside the lounge shook the window frames slightly, mixed with the high-pitched announcement of the host Jimi, and it was obvious that the round-robin contestants had arrived.

Xing looked up at March Seven, with a hint of teasing in his tone:

"Will March win?"

San Yue Qi suddenly straightened his back, held his head high, and spoke with confidence:

"No problem, I'm the strongest!"

Mei☆ happened to push the door open and walked in. Her eyes fell on her angry look. She couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips and patted her shoulder lightly.

"Really? Well, I'll have to give it my all—after all, I'm going to fight against the 'strongest' Mitsuki."

These words instantly pierced through Sanyueqi's stubbornness. She immediately grabbed Mei☆'s sleeve like a lifeline, and her tone changed from "hard" to pitiful:

"Mei☆Sister! No, Mei☆Mom! Please be gentle later, I don't want to be carried off the stage right after I get on!"

Fu Ming, who was standing by, raised his two middle fingers to the ground, with a smile hidden in his eyes, but teasing her deliberately:

"In order to get Mei☆ to show mercy, you even called out your mother. Sanyueqi, you are so spineless. I despise you!"

"One look at Ding Zhen, and he'll be beaten to a pulp."

Xiao Shi leaned against the wall with his arms folded, and replied nonchalantly, his tone full of understanding as if he was just watching the fun.

Mei☆ was amused by her instant cowardice:

"Ahem, don't worry, I will control my strength and won't let you get carried away."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the lounge was pushed open by the Cloud Cavalry, who shouted:

"Contestants, please enter!"

Sanyueqi grabbed Meiyi☆'s sleeve and refused to let go, following her out step by step, and passed by Xiaoshi.

"Stop dawdling." Xiao Shi stood up and patted San Yue Qi's back with a moderate force, making her stagger. "Any slower, or the audience will think you're having stage fright."

"I didn't!"

Sanyueqi retorted with his neck stiffened, but still quickened his pace, only tightening his grip on Mei☆'s sleeve and repeating:

"Mei☆Mom, you're going to go to the sea soon!"

?————

"Next, let's give our warmest applause to this year's contestants—"Unknown Guest" Sanyueqi from Star Train, and our popular contestant, "Queen of Lightning" Mei Raiden☆!"

Jimi's voice was broadcast throughout the stadium through the radio, and the ending tone was deliberately upbeat and cheerful, instantly igniting the atmosphere of the entire stadium.

When the two figures stepped onto the ring, the cheers and screams almost overturned the dome - the cheers for the "Queen of Thunder" were particularly dense, hitting the ears like a wave.

Sanyueqi subconsciously glanced at the audience and muttered softly:

"It's so lively...it's a pity that it wasn't me who was being shouted at."

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly caught a glimpse of two figures in the front row of the audience. Gui Naifen and Su Shang were holding signs that read "Come on March 7th" and waving them vigorously. Su Shang was also jumping and shouting her name.

March Seven's eyes curved instantly, and he raised his voice and replied:

"You are worthy of being my good sister!"

At this time, the voice of another good sister of March Seven, Xing, floated over from the side of the ring, but she said inappropriately:

"March 7th, do you want me to yell 'I surrender' for you? Maybe then you can go straight to the audience for snacks~"

"never!"

San Yue Qi took a deep breath and raised his hand to straighten his collar. Although his voice was still a little trembling, his eyes managed to reveal a bit of determination:

"Even if you know you can't win, Wumingke can't escape from the battlefield!"

"Well said, March."

Dan Heng's voice sounded at the right time. He had walked to the edge of the ring without her noticing. When his eyes fell on her, there was silent encouragement in them.

With the shout of "The match begins", Mei☆ slowly drew out the katana from her waist, and the sword shone with a cold silver glow in the sunlight.

However, Mei☆ did not launch an attack immediately. She just stood firmly in place, looking at Sanyueqi calmly, obviously waiting for her to make the first move.

San Yue Qi quickly grasped the bow in his left hand and picked up the long sword in his right hand.

The next second, she actually placed the long sword on the bow, with her fingertips on the hilt, as if she was using the sword as an arrow, and suddenly pulled the bow into a full moon.

This scene caused a corner of the audience to be silent for a moment.

Xiao Shi turned his head to look at Yan Qing and Yun Li not far away, his tone full of doubt:

"Did you teach her to use a sword like this?"

Yan Qing and Yun Li shook their heads almost at the same time, and pointed at each other in unison:

"Don't look at me, it wasn't me who taught you that, it must have been Yunli (Yanqing) who taught you that!"

Xiao Shi ignored the two people who were disliking each other and turned his attention to Fu Ming who was standing next to them with a wandering look.

Fu Ming was so pricked by this look that he could no longer pretend. He quickly coughed twice and raised his voice seriously:

"Ahem, I didn't expect that little Sanyue could actually use this trick! This move is not simple, and its power should definitely not be underestimated. Mei☆ is probably in danger!"

On the ring, even Mei☆, who was used to seeing all kinds of moves, frowned slightly, with a hint of genuine surprise in her eyes.

But then it was replaced by a stronger interest. The hand holding the sword not only did not tighten, but loosened a little, obviously he was interested in San Yueqi's moves.

Jimi's exclamation was immediately heard over the radio:

"Is this a brand new move of Sanyueqi? It's really unexpected that he can combine the bow and sword in such a unique way."
