One soul, two twins, the other half is Bronya

"An unknown demon? What is his purpose?"

To climb to this position step by step, Heitieyan has experienced too much intrigue and deception.

“So, politics…”

At this moment, a flash of lightning suddenly flowed through the building, and finally condensed into a figure behind Hei Tieyan. "Why do people like you always tend to lean towards conspiracy theories?"

Heitie Yan didn't turn around. Sometimes, not knowing is the best thing.

"Tsk, you guys are so boring."

Bai Ye leaned against the window and commented casually, "Just think of me as an investment."

"invest?"

“Yes, it’s investment.”

Neither side even faced each other, but that didn't affect the conversation. Bai Ye nodded in the back and continued to lie, "You know, the abilities of the Bladebreakers are all sorts of strange and varied."

"As for me..."

He deliberately prolonged his tone, still using the previous setting, "Although it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, it's still just a possibility, but to some extent... it can indeed see the future."

"From what I've seen, you and your son will have a falling out, and eventually sever all ties."

He spoke in a very relaxed tone, as if this ability was nothing to him, "A newly promoted demon is still worth my investment."

"After all, you're still his father. In the end, did he really not have even a single regret?"

"So here I am."

After briefly explaining his purpose, Bai Ye thought it was enough and prepared to leave. "Could you please give me some face and give that guy a chance?"

The tone of the statement was completely declarative. As a demon, Bai Ye did not need to discuss this with Heitie Yanda, as this was in line with his status.

"……,I see."

"Then that's it."

After doing some simple finishing for Ikki, Bai Ye nodded and turned into lightning again and disappeared into the building.

After that, Heitie Yan continued to sit for a long time, probably to make sure that the other party had left, then turned around, "The demon of thunder and lightning?"

"xxx, go to the monitoring room."

Hei Tieyan took out the communication and quickly gave the order, "Don't check it. Delete today's surveillance. And the backup too. In short, make sure everything is deleted. Do you understand?"

"clear."

Without asking why, the other party quickly took action. Hei Tieyan put away the communication and continued to overlook the city.

……

"I will now inform you of your next opponent."

Akaza was still using his tactics. Ikki's determined gaze made Akaza particularly unhappy, and his tone was also tinged with sarcasm, "Raikiri" Toudou Touka!"

"This is your opponent in the finals of the trials."

After a brief pause, seeing that Ikki remained unmoved, Akaza's expression twisted slightly, "We, the Ethics Committee, don't want the inquiry to continue."

"If you wish to prove your worth as a knight, win a duel in public."

"A duel..."

Unlike the original work, Ikki's fighting spirit is exceptionally high.

"Cut~"

Seeing this, Akaza became even more unhappy, "You guy, do you really think you can win?"

Ikki remained silent. Standing in the judge's seat, he responded with a calm gaze, as if he were looking at a clown.

"...If you can defeat Raikiri, we won't pursue this matter any further. On the other hand, if you lose..."

Akaza stretched out his tone, staring closely at Ikki, but he couldn't see any emotion in his voice. "A mere failed knight, do you really think you can turn the world upside down?"

"I'll wait for the day when you lose your knighthood." Akaza slammed the seat in anger and left.

At this point, the investigation came to an end.

"Toudou-san..."

In the small dark room, Yihui recalled what happened before: the brilliance of Toudou Daohua blooming in the orphanage, that incomparably brilliant will, was really dazzling!

"Devote yourself for others? But now, I also have a goal to fight for. I can't lose!"

……

On the day of the competition:

"It's finally here! The final day of the Seven Star Sword Festival trials has arrived!"

The announcer was still working so hard! His energetic voice carried across the entire academy. "Today, six winners will be chosen at six venues to receive tickets to the Seven Star Sword Festival."

"There's no doubt that everyone who's competing today is a formidable force who's remained undefeated in 19 battles!"

“…” (Omit an introduction)

"Of course, the most eye-catching match is this one: last year's Seven Stars Swordsmanship Festival semi-finalist, Toudou Touka! And the F-class knight Kurogane Ikki!"

"And unlike in the past, this game will be broadcast live."

……

"I really want the whole world to see his miserable state."

As usual, Ning Yin, the commentator, was distracted again. In the audience, Ning Yin looked at the broadcast helicopter high in the sky and couldn't help but sigh.

"That Akaza guy did a really great job."

Kurono crossed his arms and stood beside Ning Yin, saying, "Now, the only way for Kurogane to prove his innocence is to win."

"I finally found you." Just then, an old man walked out from the aisle of the audience seats.

——【Fighting God】Nango Torajiro!

"Why, why are you here?!" Ning Yin was unusually flustered after recognizing the visitor.

"Yeah, I'm here~"

"Why are you pretending to be so young, you old man!" It was a very young voice, but the words were quite sharp.

"My beloved disciple is still as harsh as ever~"

Nango Torajiro, like an ordinary old man, slowly walked in his wooden clogs and sat in the seat in the back row between the two of them. "But, this is also your cuteness~"

"But, cute...don't say such disgusting things!" Ning Yin couldn't stand these words.

"It's really cute, Ningyin."

As a fun-loving person, Bai Ye would of course not be absent and appeared at the guardrail not far away.

"Do you want to die!"

He clenched his fist and waved it in front of Bai Ye. He couldn't handle his master, but he didn't have to worry about Bai Ye. After all... they were friends who had known each other for a lifetime!

"Teacher Ning Yin is still so energetic." Then, Bronya also walked over slowly.

Ignoring the quarreling going on over there, Bronya politely bowed slightly to Nango Torajiro and said, "Greetings, Lord Fighting God."

"Oh my, the young people nowadays...are truly amazing."

Nango Torajiro saw this, and that's why he couldn't help but sigh.

"No, Bronya is far from that. Speaking of which, Toudou-san is also a disciple of the God of War, right?"

"That's right, that's right."

Nango Torajiro nodded. Looking at him, he really looked like an ordinary old man. "She's one of my favorite students. Of course I have to come to this match~"

"Although I could wait for her at the Seven Stars Sword Festival..."

"I don't think so."

At this time, Bai Ye stopped playing around and came over. "I think Ikki will win this match. How about it, Mr. Nanxiang, do you want to place a bet?"

"Haha, since the young man said so, why can't I, an old man, accompany you?"

"Maybe this game will be stopped midway~"

Suddenly, a sarcastic voice sounded, and Akaza's fat body squeezed into the seat - he had done a lot of tricks during his detention.

"Commissioner Akaza."

Kurono turned her head slightly and looked at Akaza not far away, her handsome brows slightly furrowed.

"Hey, isn't this ugly?"

"!!!"

This voice... Akaza then looked over here and found that Bai Ye was actually mixed in! Impossible, just a student, "Why are you here?!"

"Ugly bastard, have you forgotten I'm a doctor?"

Bai Ye was calm and composed. "Those little tricks you did are nothing to me. Just watch this match carefully. Kurogane Ikki will win."

Elsewhere, Ikki also saw everyone at the entrance. Shizuku, Oreki Yuri, Ayatsuji Ayase... and even his classmates from the training class, all stood at the academy gate, waiting for him.

"Brother, keep going."

"master!"

"Kurotetsu-kun..."

Amidst the warm welcome, a smile appeared on Ikki's face. And then...

Her bright red hair fluttered in the wind. Stella finished the competition and came over, holding her medal high. "Ikki! I've fulfilled my promise and become the representative of the Seven Stars Sword Festival!"

"Let's go forward together! To the summit of the Knight's Path!"

"..."

Yes, we made a promise... We made a promise. Although he was still a little tired from running all the way, Ikki's fighting spirit was even higher at this moment.

……

"Dear audience, sorry to have kept you waiting. The Seven Stars Dance Festival representative selection finals are now officially beginning!"

Amidst warm cheers, Toudou Touka and Kurogane Ikki finally stepped onto the finals stage.

"I've hesitated before."

On the field, Toudou Daohua looked at Ikki face to face and expressed his previous thoughts, "This match was too mixed up, and for a time I felt that doing this was disgraceful."

"But..."

Golden lightning began to flicker in his palm, and Toudou Daohua summoned his inherent spiritual equipment "Narakamiya". "Until I saw you here, I realized that it didn't matter anymore."

——"I want to fight this guy!"

At this moment, Dongtang Daohua's tone of voice gradually became higher, "This is what my heart tells me."

"I'm like you on that point."

As he spoke, the glow of his inherent spiritual equipment flickered, and Ikki's hand revealed the "Yin Iron". "Since I am standing here, whether for myself, for you, or for the people who support me..."

"I do not want this battle to bring shame to my sword, so I swear here:"

——"Use my weakest to defeat your strongest!"

【Game start! 】

Accompanied by a burst of electronic sound, Ikki's body suddenly burst out with magical light, "One Sword Shura!"

If you want to defeat her without any tricks... you can only defeat her head-on!
