The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life
Chapter 246: Dark Demon, I remember you (2 in 1)

As the water waves covering the air suddenly dissipated, a few drops of water fell.

Angelia stretched out her hand blankly, the cold touch of her fingertips made her realize that she had really lost.

Although victory or defeat was a common thing in duels, she still couldn't accept a sudden defeat in a duel that she felt she would win, especially when the opponent was a first-year student.

There was a magical spirit that could be summoned in her hand that she had just drawn, but a magical spirit with only two stars was useless even if it was actually summoned, so she hesitated.

But this hesitation didn’t change the outcome.

Losing is losing, and Angelia hadn't gotten to the point where she wouldn’t admit defeat.

She took a deep breath, put away the magic card, and turned around to walk off the player’s stage. "Dark Demon, I remember you!"

...

The audience's applause was late but arrived.

Dark stood on the player’s stage a bit longer than Angelia.

He took back the magical spirits one by one, still replaying the scenes of the duel in his mind.

The duel that lasted less than four minutes was extremely exciting, but at the same time, it was hard to hide the exhaustion.

The highly concentrated mental strength and the magic energy that had been active all the time had brought huge consumption.

He was not proud of the victory in the duel.

This duel was not so much his victory as it was the victory of his magical spirits!

If it weren't for Gatomon's extraordinary play and Ditto's clever idea at the critical moment, he might have been lost.

This result convinced him of the correctness of applying knowledge education to magical spirits!

Of course, moral education couldn’t be ignored.

Sylveon was worthy of praise for its tenacity in protecting the magic ball after being knocked away.

As the intelligence of the magical spirits increased, the feedback on injury and pain would also increase.

Thinking from the magical spirit’s perspective, Dark didn't think he could react the same way when he was in severe pain.

He continued to think about the weaknesses that needed to be made up and the advantages that could be carried forward, and slowly walked down the platform.

The three judges on the judging panel also announced their scores at this time.

Professor Jones held up the sign first. "Red player ·Angelia, 9 points. Blue player · Dark, 10 points."

As the winner, Dark got a perfect score.

Angelia on the losing side also scored 9 points - 1 point shy of 10.

But that was not because she failed.

It was mainly because she was a third-year student herself, but she did not exert the dominance that a third-year should have.

Her Quick Summoning technique was a plus point, but the subsequent handling was a minus point.

But this time, Professor Fox gave her a full score. "Red player, 10 points. Blue player, 10 points."

Just for this recruiting competition, the performance of the two of them was undoubtedly above the standard, and he could no longer be too critical.

Professor Fox valued highly of Angelia's [Great Liberation].

In the end, the fifth-year student judge also gave both players full scores.

...

After the scores of this game were released, even if both players directly abstained in the third round, they were enough to pass the new recruiting review.

Dark returned to the bench and sat down, continuing to think.

Neither Dianna nor Rose disturbed him.

Every duel would reflect many things that the duelers were lacking, but it was not easy to make up for them.

He was still summarizing and reflecting.

...

The recruiting competition continued.

The next game in arena 1 was an internal war.

The two sides of the competition were White from Knight House in Year 1 and Doron from Noble House in Year 1!

Doron was surprised that he was competing against White.

But he quickly recovered and got on the platform.

White on the other side was slightly relieved. He was afraid that he would be matched with a third year student like Emma and Dark, which would cause him to lose the game before he even had a chance to summon anything.

Originally, his grades for the first round were already hovering on the pass line. If he could not perform better in the second and third rounds, it would be very bad.

But since the opponent in this round was Doron from the same year, he could finally show his best side.

His summoning speed advantage that wasn't well displayed when facing Scott could be further demonstrated.

And then if he won the game again, it would be even more perfect!

Things were moving in a direction that was in his favor.

And this time, White really seized the opportunity!

His summoning speed was faster than that of Doron, and the quality of his cards were also stronger than that of Doron. He also had better luck that Doron couldn't match, which could be said to suppress Doron in almost all aspects.

Eventually, he won the game.

And that got him two 7s and a 6!

Although Doron lost, he also showed his strength in the game and received a passing score.

...

And the fourth game that followed was finally Dianna's turn again.

After defeating the second-year senior Marjorie in the previous round, she again encountered another second-year senior.

This time, however, she was not as lucky as the previous round.

This Knight House senior was very steady, blocking and resolving every round of her attacks, and finally defeated her by relying on a richer deck!

Both sides performed quite well in this competition, receiving unanimous high praise from the three judges.

...

Then it was the 5th game, and the 6th game. And in the 7th game, Emma Mortis was competing again!

In the first battle, Emma lost to Angelia-senpai, and she wasn't able to do anything during that game, but now she finally encountered a slightly more normal player.

That was a second-year Magister House student!

As soon as the game started, Dark's attention was drawn, and he turned his head from his conversation with Dianna to look at the second year student.

It was a clean-looking boy, wearing a brown scarf, with a gentle appearance, perfectly showing the style of Magister House.

However, it made Dark wonder why such a senior didn't pass the assessment last semester.

"Spencer Alec, nice to meet you." Spencer, who was on the platform, greeted Emma actively, looking very polite.

His popularity was obviously very good, and there were many students outside the arena who came to cheer him on.

Dark blinked, thinking that Emma was really unlucky, having encountered a less-than-easy opponent twice in a row.

But compared to Angelia-senpai, this Spencer-senpai should be slightly inferior, so Emma still had a chance.

Similar judgments were made by Helena and Winnie.

The two members of the Literature Club looked at Emma on the red player's platform with some concern, and beside them was Angelia who had returned to them.

Helena turned her head and teased: "Angelia, how does it feel to lose a duel?"

Angelia said blankly: "Not bad."

Helena suddenly widened her eyes in surprise: "Something is wrong with you!"

Angelia: "???"

Helena: " I didn't realize that you still have this kind of fetish!"

Angelia almost couldn't hold back the urge to hit her head with "Claire's Travel Diary". After finally calming down, she asked in a suppressed tone: "So have you decided to recruit anyone from this year's Noble House freshmen?"

Helena shook her head: "Not yet. What, do you have someone to recommend?"

Angelia pointed to the back of someone sandwiched between two girls on the bench, and wondered, "Why don't you approach him?"

Helena glanced at Dark and smiled, "No wonder why you are suddenly concerned about the club's recruitment matter. Let's put it this way, if you can recruit him into our club, I'll cover all the expenses that you spend on new books next month!"

Angelia rolled her eyes and figured out the reason.

...

While they were chatting, the game in the arena had already advanced to the [Battle Phase].

Emma had a slight disadvantage in her summoning speed, but she once again drew [Golden Beast] in the first five cards!

As the most important first-ring in her tactical system, [Golden Beast] not only had 1500 points of defense, but also had a magical ability [Golden Devour]!

Compared with the in-class competition, her current deck had been further improved, and she also had more magic cards that could be matched with the Golden Beast.

The white light shot from the [Golden Beast]'s card surface fell on the red player's summoning area, and the mech-type magical spirit, which was about two meters high and made of gold, let out a low roar when it appeared, and stared at the magical spirit in the opponent's summoning area!

It was also a 3-star magical spirit.

What Spencer summoned was a chubby tiger with a height of three meters, but with short limbs and a chubby body!

The chubby tiger with a texture more like a doll appeared entirely in a sitting position. Its stubby limbs didn't seem to be able to support its huge belly at all, and it didn't have the sharp claws that a tiger should have.

But the Golden Beast clearly sensed a threat from this seemingly harmless magical spirit!

…

[Card name: Sandbag Tiger]

[Type: spirit card]

[Level: ✪✪✪]

[Race: Bird & Beast-type]

[Attribute: normal]

[Magic energy: 1400]

[Attack: 800]

[Defense: 1600]

[Ultimate: Endure, Vent]

...

Spencer glanced at Emma's Golden Beast and then at his Sandbag Tiger, but he did not command the attack.

The same goes for Emma, ​​with both sides looking very cautious.

But after the cooldown of the summoning spell ended, both of them took out their second magic card.

Spencer's second magic card was also a magical spirit card!

With a roar, a skinny tiger appeared beside the Sandbag Tiger!

This tiger magical spirit seemed to have been starving for dozens of days. It was skinny and looked like it could collapse when the wind blew at it. However, there was a viciousness that the Sandbag Tiger did not have in its eyes!

…

[Card name: Bony Tiger]

[Type: spirit card]

[Level: ✪✪✪]

[Race: Bird & Beast-type]

[Attribute: normal]

[Magic energy: 1100]

[Attack: 1500]

[Defense:700]

[Ultimate: Dying Bone]

…

Finishing the summoning faster than Emma, Spencer immediately launched the attack command after summoning Bony Tiger: "Take out that pile of metal bumps!"

The Bony Tiger lowered its body and bared its sharp fangs the Golden Beast.

"Roar!" Eyes flashed red, the Bony Tiger began to dash out.

Perhaps because of the lack of flesh and blood, the Bony Tiger's speed was unexpectedly fast. It rushed into the red player's summoning area like a hurricane, bringing the ferocious aura that eroded the air with it.

The Golden Beast roared violently and slammed into the Bony Tiger without fear!

"Bang!" A loud colliding sound rang out.

The Bony Tiger's bony body almost fell apart.

And there was only a shallow claw mark on the Golden Beast's head!

Although it could break the defence of the Golden Beast, it was like scratching to it.

Emma was a little relieved, and she finally completed her the second magic card summoning,

An ancient gold coin with wings fell from the sky and shot towards the Golden Beast like a golden light!

"Golden Infest!" Emma's voice rose slightly.

The winged gold coin that flew quickly landed on the Golden Beast's spine with a "click"!

Then its body sank suddenly, and it was actually integrated into the golden shell of the Golden Beast.

Immediately afterwards, the Golden Beast's body shook slightly, and two puddles of liquid metal drilled out from both sides of its body, forming golden armor that covered his entire body.

Moreover, it also grew a pair of golden wings!

"Roar!" The Golden Beast lowered its head and roared, its imposing aura was soaring!

[Magic energy: 1000→1300]

[Attack: 1300]

[Defense: 1500→1800]

[Ultimate: Golden Devour, Feather Arrow]

The Golden Worm's infest granted the Golden Beast a full 300 points of magic energy and defense boost, as well as a new ultimate ability -Feather Arrow!

The moment its wings were spread open, the Golden Beast's body suddenly accelerated, biting the Bony Tiger who had stepped back a few steps from the collision.

How could the Bony Tiger's 700 points of fragile defense withstand another attack from the Golden Beast?

Its magic energy value plummeted like a torrent.

After only a moment, the Bony Tiger stopped moving, and was then thrown out of the Golden Beast's mouth.

The Bony Tiger fell heavily to the ground, and its skin tissue turned into light dust in the air, but the complete tiger skeleton remained.

Emma on the platform frowned, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong immediately, so she could only hurry up and order the Golden Beast to attack the Sandbag Tiger!

The Golden Beast with wings was so fast that the first thing it did was to tear open the Sandbag Tiger's belly with its claw!

No lint was exposed inside.

Of course, no intestines were exposed either.

On the platform, Spencer looked calm.

The Sandbag Tiger was considered a strong card among all his 3-star magical spirits, and its defense was a full 100 points higher than the defense stats of a top 3-star magical spirit. Coupled with the characteristics of its body, it was basically immune to blunt weapon damage, but its resistance to the sharp ones was very weak.

The Golden Beast's attack was only 1300 points, but it was able to tear the abdomen of the Sandbag Tiger with its sharp claws.

However, the damage the Sandbag Tiger suffered was not as serious as it appeared.

Its magic energy value had barely dropped.

Even though the Golden Beast left scars on it again and again after that, it still sat there, not moving.

After striking a few times, Emma noticed that something was wrong and immediately shouted: "Golden Beast, bypass it!"

But when the Golden Beast tried to bypass it and attack the magic ball, the Sandbag Tiger turned around and hugged the blue player's magic ball tightly in its arms - no, it even stuffed it into the torn belly!

This made Emma immediately recall Sara's [Dead Mummy], which seemed to be using the same way to protect the ball.
