The backdrop can also be propped up.

After the match, Lu Renkui returned to the waiting area and began to think about how he could play in a way that would neither steal the spotlight from Hai Lai Di nor make his defeat too abrupt.

Hai Cai Di's current skill level is above average, so I'll just concede 20 minutes into the match. Anyway, conceding now will get me second place, so it's not too shameful. With that thought, Lu Ren Kui stepped onto the ring.

Having learned from the experience of the first round of the ring fight, the school installed barriers above the ring to prevent accidental injury to people in the audience and waiting areas if the ring were damaged.

When Olivia and Carola saw "Borist" come on stage, they waved their hands and shouted, "Go, brother!"

However, Lu Renkui didn't hear it because the stadium was filled with cheers for Hailey.

Evangeline was somewhat worried—she knew that Borist was powerful enough, but seeing Heledi win several matches in a row, with her magical attacks on the field seemingly without any flaws, she was worried about "Borist".

Lu Renkui walked onto the stage, and opposite him was Heledi with a polite smile.

The blond, blue-eyed boy opposite him, who had won several matches in a row, smiled and said, "Hello, my opponent. You're pretty good for making it this far, aren't you?"

"Oh, okay, thank you for being so good... My goodness!" Before Lu Renkui could finish speaking, Hailaidi launched an attack.

Lu Renkui instinctively dodged to the side, and all the attacks hit the barrier, the ripples on the barrier lingering for a long time.

"You reacted pretty quickly." Heledi looked a little disappointed, then laughed again. "But you're much better than those guys from before. When I used this move, none of them managed to dodge it."

Lu Renkui didn't reply. She gripped her wand tightly and looked at Heledi with wariness, hoping that she could react quickly if Heledi made any move.

Seeing that her opponent was no longer responding, Heledi knew that her opponent probably wouldn't fall for her tricks again, so she unleashed another magical attack.

Watching his opponent dodge, Heledi couldn't help but recall the dream he had last night, or rather, his past life.

At that time, Haina Di also obtained that ancient magic book. He defeated many people who were as strong as or stronger than himself, and won the hearts of many women.

One of the women he loved most was the nun in the church—Evangeline.

Evangeline looked sacred and unapproachable, which aroused Heledi's desire to conquer her.

There's another reason—some say Evangeline likes Borest.

At that time, Borist was practically a figure unprecedented in the entire magical world—since graduating, he had been breaking records in the magical world, and in every aspect, from potions and spells to magic circles, he was the youngest pioneer.

Borist is someone Heledi cannot compare to, someone Heledi cannot even match despite possessing the ancient magic book.

Every time she encountered news about Borest, Heledi would have that same feeling again—the feeling she had before she obtained the ancient magic book, when she felt inferior to her sickly younger brother, Heikal.

So Heledi pursued Evangeline, and after a long time, Evangeline accepted Heledi's advances.

This gave Heledi the feeling that he had defeated Borest—so what if that guy was so great? In the end, Evangeline still chose him over that completely clueless idiot.

However, after two years of dating in secret, Heledi discovers that Evangeline is actually using him as a substitute for Borest.

When she discovered this in her past life, Borest was fast asleep on a church pew, while Evangeline picked up the book that Borest had covered his face and kissed Borest on the lips.

This was a huge blow to Helene—for a year or two, he hadn't even held hands! Borest, on the other hand, had easily won Evangeline's kiss without doing anything.

And judging from Evangeline's level of skill, this probably wasn't her first time.

When Heledi saw that scene, he felt as if the blood in his body had frozen, and he could not hear any sound—he once again felt a sense of defeat that he had not felt for many years.

When Evangeline realized she had been discovered, she showed no shame whatsoever for being caught cheating. On the contrary, when the two went to their previous meeting place, she remained nonchalant when Heledy questioned her: "Aren't you the same? You have so many women outside, do you think I don't know?"

"Besides, you haven't forgotten why you came after me, have you?" Evangeline squinted at Heledy.

Upon hearing this, Heledy's head went blank. He looked at Evangeline in disbelief and shouted somewhat uncontrollably, "You've always known!"

“Yes, I’ve always known. So do you know why I accepted your advances?” Evangeline smiled at Heledy, just as she looked at the various believers who came to the church to pray for their unspeakable desires.

"Why..." Heledi herself didn't know how she managed to say those words.

“You and Fred are a lot like each other when you were little.” Evangeline was lost in memories. “The time you were pursuing me reminded me of when Fred was still in school. Back then, he would come to church every day to listen to me speak.”

“During the time you were pursuing me, you would always come to church to listen to me speak, just like Fred did back then, so I thought I could use you as a substitute for him.”

Evangeline, enjoying Heledi's increasingly dark expression, uttered her final words with amusement:

"That's why I agreed to your request."

Heledi didn't kill Evangeline for some reason, and he didn't even know how he walked out of the church that day—after playing with women for so long, this was the first time he had been played by a woman.

Since that day, Heledi has never gone to church except for worship services.

About six months later, Celeste—Heledy's childhood friend—invited Heledy out.

Heledi thought about how he had forgotten about Celeste for so long while spending time with Elena and other women, and realized it was time to solidify their relationship, so he gladly went to keep the appointment.

As a result, Heikal not only met Celeste, but also Evangeline.

Heledy initially thought Evangeline had come to ask for her forgiveness, but she never expected that Evangeline and Celeste would team up to kill her.

In his final seconds before dying, Heledy overheard why Evangeline and Celeste had teamed up to kill him.

For Borist.

Back in reality, Heledi looked at the battered ring and her exhausted opponent, and couldn't help but frown. What a tough nut to crack.

However, he hasn't launched an attack against me for so long, only defending. How did this guy become so powerful? And what makes him so capable of making all the women I've set my sights betray me! The more Heledi thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more ruthless her attacks became.

Lu Renkui originally planned to find an opportunity to slip off the stage in 20 minutes, but Hailey fell into deep thought during the fight.

Normally, this wouldn't have been a big deal, and Lu Renkui could still slip off the stage as planned. However, Hailey seemed to have thought of something, and her expression grew increasingly grim. Her attacks became more and more vicious, so vicious that Lu Renkui couldn't find an opening to run off the stage.

By the time Heledi temporarily stopped, Borist, where Lu Renkui was, had almost exhausted his physical strength.

This guy has stopped attacking. I should be fine if I take two more steps back from the ring and fall. Lu Renkui slowly backed away from the edge of the ring, planning to find an opportunity to flip over.

Unexpectedly, Heledi's eyes suddenly turned fierce, and she unleashed an attack even more ferocious than before.

The moment Lu Renkui saw the attack, her first thought was to use the spell she had seen in the combat manual, which she had even memorized before the battle.

But Lu Renkui doesn't know how to use it.

Lu Renkui watched the white light attack flying towards him—this attack was much slower than the previous ones, but there was absolutely nowhere to dodge it.

Even if Lu Renkui jumps out of the ring, this attack will definitely hit Lu Renkui's current body, and he will be crippled if he doesn't die.

However, apart from the first few sounds of the incantation, Lu Renkui couldn't remember the rest.

Lu Renkui took another big step back, intending to fall off the stage first—being crippled is better than being dead, right?

However, Heledi seemed unwilling to give her opponent that chance. She added a speed-boosting spell to the attack spell, making it fly over at an accelerated speed.

The attack magic is now only 30 centimeters away from Lu Renkui's current body.

Just as Lu Renkui was feeling the effects, she suddenly realized that her hands and feet were no longer under her control.

How to describe it? It's like you're playing a VR game, and some pro player sees that you're playing terribly and decides to hack into the game and control your character to play for you, while you can only watch blankly.

Then Lu Renkui felt his consciousness being suddenly pulled backward, changing from a first-person perspective to a third-person perspective.

Lu Renkui roughly understood what was going on.

Borest woke up.

Lu Renkui saw Borist raise his wand and then recite the spell that she had never been able to memorize before.

At the same time, Lu Renkui discovered the reason why she couldn't pronounce the incantations smoothly—these incantations actually had a deeper meaning, but since Lu Renkui had just arrived in this world, she couldn't understand them at all.

Now, Borist is casting a spell, and Lu Renkui understands it.
