Star Iron: I picked up a secretary at the beginning of March 7th

"Welcome to the first level of the 20th and 33rd Hot Sand Festival, sponsored by Suleda Co., Ltd.: Dream Battle." Seeing Hualin and the others arrive, the guide began to explain, "In this level, you can choose between the 'Acting' or 'Action' challenge."

"In the 'Acting' challenge, you need to perform according to the script and impress the judges on the scene; in the 'Action' challenge, you need to defeat three groups of enemies cleanly and neatly and reach the finish line."

"Now, please start your selection!"

"One relies on acting skills and the other relies on martial arts..." Hualin thought briefly, then turned to look at Jizi for advice and said, "Teacher Jizi, how about you two go to the acting department, and I'll take Sanyue and Cangye to the action department."

"I believe in your abilities, but you still have to be careful."

"Okay~"

So, everyone went to their destination according to Hualin's arrangement.

.......

"How difficult do you think they are?"

Hualin's progress was extremely smooth. After understanding the rules from the guide, Hualin turned to Cangye and started working. He completed the goal in no time. The speed was so fast that Sanyue didn't even have time to put on shields for the two of them before they went to the next place.

"Level eight, it can't be any higher, and I feel that giving them level eight is already high."

"So you mean the ninth level? Coincidentally, Roland is also a 'ninth level finisher'. Here, here's the invitation. Go back and fight him?"

"......" Seeing Hualin really searching on his body, Cangye hugged Sanyue, who had just caught up with the two of them, and said to Hualin in a cold tone, "Believe it or not, I will take Sister Sanyue with me."

March:? ? ?

"Pfft~" Seeing Sanyue's confused face and not understanding what was happening, Hualin couldn't help but laugh, then waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, we've finished the challenges here. Time waits for no one, let's quickly move on to the next challenge."

With Cangye Hualin and Sanyue pushing forward all the way, the three of them finally arrived at the final level.

"Wait a minute! Handsome sir, pretty lady..."

"I'll wait for you (urban swear word)!" After seeing the person in front of him clearly, Hualin rushed up in one step, regardless of the hardness of the armor, and grabbed the other person's collar and said excitedly, "You are sweet, do you know how uncomfortable I was when I was sweet!"

"???"

"Sister Sanyue." Cangye moved closer to Sanyue and asked in a low voice, "What's the grudge between these two guys?"

"Uh..." Sanyue thought for a moment, then gave Cangye a mind-numbing answer:

"Love and Hatred?"

".......ah?"

Cangye fell into deep thought and asked the question: "Who cheated on whom?"

"???"

Okay, this time it’s March’s turn to go down.

Suddenly, Sanyue remembered that Cangye only knew the name Yinzhi but didn't know who Yinzhi was, so he gave a brief explanation.

"Pure Beauty and Glory, your words are still tainted with filth." Facing the agitated Hualin, Yinzhi was relatively calm. "But I didn't expect that we would meet again. Your warm faces in this turbulent time are like a spring breeze, soothing my burning heart!"

"So, the person defending the ring that the host mentioned at the beginning is you?" As if afraid that Hualin would say something else, Cangye stepped forward and stood in front of Hualin, looking at Yinzhi and asked, "If not, please move aside. We have an urgent matter."

"I......"

"No way, I think I saw something... a very extraordinary person."

Yinzhi had just begun to speak when he was interrupted by Xing's sudden voice. The next moment, a raccoon appeared next to Yinzhi and began to circle around him.

"It seems that Idlila has always been protecting you." Jizi came over with Liuying, "Mr. Yinzhi, it's nice to see you again."

"I'm glad to see you again, too."

"Um, are you here to attend the Harmonious Music Festival as well?" Xing asked, seemingly confirming that the Yinzhi in front of him was her real self. "By the way, how did you get here?"

"It's a long story. I originally..."

"Well, I didn't mean to interrupt." Yinzhi was interrupted again, but this time it was Cangye who interrupted her. "But right now, don't we have something more important than reminiscing about the past?"

"Oh! Yes, the host said that there is a defender in the last level... Could it be you, Yinzhi?" Xing's eyes looked around Yinzhi, but there was no sign of other people or other creatures, while Hualin on the side silently tightened his spear.

"That's right. Since we're gathered here, I'm sure you're all here to compete for the championship, right?" Yinzhi openly admitted her role as the champion. "Although after arriving, I was mistaken for a tall, silver-armored, fiery criminal because of my poor speaking skills. But that's okay. All of this is pure and beautiful experience from the land of dreams."

A wanted criminal who is tall, wearing silver armor, and as red and hot as flames?

Everyone glanced at Liuying in silent, knowing glances, but Yinzhi didn't notice. She continued, "What's important is that I'm standing here now—we've met on a narrow road. I, Yinzhi of the Pure Knights, beg to challenge you two to a contest of chivalry!"

"If I am fortunate enough to win, please give me the steps to the crown and acknowledge..."

"The pure goddess Idrila is unparalleled in beauty, right?" Hualin pointed his spear at Yinzhi and let out a long breath. "March, stand back and let me go alone."

"Eh?"

Sanyue wanted to say something when she heard this, but Cangye grabbed her collar and dragged her to the back.

At the same time, Cangye's other hand was holding a confused star.

"Draw your guns, just you and me."

Hualin swept his spear to force Yinzhi back, and then immediately threw the spear at Yinzhi.

Although Yinzhi was caught off guard, she quickly adjusted herself, holding her silver spear in front of her, barely blocking the spear thrown by Hualin.

However, the next second, Hualin teleported in front of Yinzhi, gripped the spear tightly and smashed it down.

"Chong-"

A trace of surprise flashed across Yinzhi's face, but then she adjusted herself, pushed Hualin away with force, turned around with the gun, and swung the silver gun towards Hualin.

Seeing this, Hualin chose to step back and then threw the spear into the air with his right hand, while secretly putting his left hand behind his back.

"?"

Everyone's attention was drawn to the spear Hualin threw into the air, including Yinzhi. But Yinzhi quickly reacted and lowered her head to look at Hualin.

At this time, Hualin had already rushed to Yinzhi and swung his left hand with a desperate determination.

Yinzhi thought to herself that something was wrong and was forced to choose defense in a hurry.

But just before the sword and gun collided, Hualin disappeared.

Or rather, it appeared at the spear in the sky.

"Sorry." Hualin threw the gun at Yinzhi, "I'm in a hurry."

The ceiling light high on the stage prevented Yinzhi from seeing Hualin throwing the gun clearly, and when the spear approached, Hualin also teleported down - with the determination to die, he put the spear on Yinzhi's neck.

"I win, and I admit that the pure goddess Idrila is unparalleled in beauty."

......

I admit that it is my fault for updating so late, but I also have my reasons - the Prison Bus Wa Night Event started two weeks ago, and there were two group members in the group, one went out to travel and the other went out to work.

This resulted in me working frantically on three accounts for two weeks, leaving me with no time to update.
