Tokyo Paranormal, the beginning reminds me of the game plot

——Probably not. Let alone Group C, even if we include Group A and Group B, there may not be a single one who can definitely beat her.

——Of course, if you are willing to take action, you can easily suppress that guy, but obviously, you won’t do that, right?

Taichi Yagami didn't say anything, obviously agreeing.

Although when they were selected for the school team, President Tsuchimikado had promised that if they ranked in the top three in the total score of the joint examination, he would inherit an incomplete forbidden technique.

But on the one hand, Yagami Taichi has no shortage of spiritual practice now, and secondly, judging from the past attitude of the Onmyoji Bureau's higher-ups, even if they are given rewards for forbidden techniques, the degree of incompleteness may very likely reach two-thirds, or even just a few general outlines left.

To complete a forbidden technique of this level is essentially not much different from developing a forbidden technique from scratch.

For a single project, even if you get a ranking, there is no reward.

Under the influence of many factors, Taichi Yagami will not really try his best.

Now, he acts with the attitude that winning would be the best, but losing doesn't matter.

But soon, their judgment of Freya was slapped in the face.

Tohka Soumiya, who appeared in the fourth round, should have been the weakest member of the Sakura Empire team.

The previous rounds of battles with White Eagle and Royal contestants have indeed proved this point.

However, after facing Freya, who was an Aquarius, the situation took a 180-degree turn.

Freya, whose overall combat power is comparable to that of the pseudo-Pure-class Onmyoji of the Sakura Empire, had the potential to directly secure victory many times.

But the attacks either just grazed Tohka Somiya's body or inexplicably lost their power.

On the other hand, Tohka Soumiya was only using a high-level secret technique, the Thunder Roar Cannon, which she had previously exchanged from Haruka Tsuchimikado.

But this seemingly ordinary spiritual technique shocked Freya so much that her whole body trembled.

The Star Armor, which was said to be able to defend against all high-level secret techniques and offset the power of some forbidden techniques, seemed to have lost all its magical powers at this moment.

The people in the audience were completely confused.

Of course, not everyone is in a state of confusion.

In the rest area of ​​the Vatican, Saint Aisha Edes, who was protected in the middle by everyone, had a divine light flashing in her eyes at this moment.

——You have been hiding here all this time~

265 Causal Deduction

Tohka Takamiya's victory over Freya was a big upset.

However, after six rounds of fighting tonight, the girl only won once.

The remaining five games all ended in defeat without much surprise.

In the end, the qualifying places for Group C, from first to fourth place, were Freya, Hierer, Yamabuki Yukino and the cyborg Rabbit Sara from White Eagle.

Group B consists of Sayuri Tsuchimikado, Setsuna Ryuuguu, Lloyd, and Hier's teammate, Mas Hohenheim, who is also a member of the seven major families.

Although Sayuri Tsuchimikado and Setsuna Ryuuguu are usually hostile to each other, this is a joint entrance exam after all, so when they are fighting, they did not use their killer moves or trump cards at will.

It was a game of tacit understanding.

Finally, it was Group A. The first place was Arthur Rideau, the second place was Hinata Kinoka, the third place was Gastlia Gray from White Eagle, who had met Taichi Yagami once in the library, and the fourth place was the most surprising to the spectators, as he was the only player from the Northern League who passed the preliminaries.

——Li Meng De.

This person is similar to Hinata Kinoka, both prefer close combat. Every battle, regardless of winning or losing, takes a long time.

And when they return to the Northern League rest area, they usually carry serious injuries.

If he had not been the only one from the Northern Alliance who entered the second round and all the potions were at his disposal, Li Meng De would not have been able to fully recover from his injuries before the next battle.

but……

While watching the battle, I don’t know if it was Taichi Yagami’s illusion, but as the battle progressed, Li Meng De’s injuries seemed to be slightly lighter each time than the previous one.

This time, the Sakura Empire team, because of the large number of family descendants, indeed performed at a level far beyond the previous ones.

This can be seen from the list of teams that advanced to the third round.

Among the twelve contestants, four are from Sakura Empire.

But this does not mean that they can rest easy in the upcoming competitions.

Because of the schedule, Ryuguu Setsuna will next face Yamafuki Yukino directly. No matter who wins or loses, it means one person will be eliminated.

The situation of the other two people is not very good either. Hinata Kinoka is against Lloyd, and Tsuchimikado Sayuri is against Rabbit Sara. She has a high probability of winning this round, but afterwards, she will face the winner of Hinata Kinoka's group.

"Have a good rest tomorrow and try to go further."

Nura and Ma, as the team leader, clapped their hands and encouraged.

At the same time, he did not forget to look at Taichi Yagami, Sayuri Tsuchimikado and Rena Yae who would participate in the potion-making finals tomorrow morning.

"I just received news that tomorrow's potion selection will be related to the Type VIII enhanced potion that the Onmyoji Bureau is developing. I have already sent the relevant information to your email."

"Thank you, Vice President." x3

The initial information of Type VIII Strengthening Potion was seen by Taichi Yagami when he visited the Ryugu clan during the summer vacation.

Now when I read it again, I found a lot of new content.

In addition to the nectar grass mentioned by Yagami Taichi before, Ryugong Liang and his research team added several spiritual materials with similar medicinal properties after more than two months of experiments.

If nothing unexpected happens, Type VIII enhanced medicine will be officially developed in three months at most.

This is two months earlier than in the previous life's game, when I had to wait until the next spring break.

The next day, at about half past eight, all the contestants had gathered in the arena.

The referee today is no longer Katagiri Kase, but a professor from each of the Royal, White Eagle, and Imperial teams.

Needless to say, these people are masters in potion-making.

And the topic they set was exactly as Nura and Ma had said. The contestants needed to use the E-grade, D-grade, and C-grade spiritual materials in front of them to create a potion that could maximize the life or spiritual attributes of the human body within the next three hours.

Among them, the three with the best potion effects are the champion, runner-up and third place winners of this year's joint exam in potion making.

This topic itself is not that difficult.

C-grade spiritual materials are the raw materials for the V-type strengthening and VI-type strengthening potions of the secret technique.

With the basic skills of the eight people present, it would not be difficult to prepare a medicine of this level if there is enough time.

In other words, everyone can theoretically submit their answers.

But if you want to get high scores...

But he needs to demonstrate his ingenuity in the field of potion making.

In the psychic world, there are many extraordinary people who can refine high-quality potions, but there are only a few who can be called masters.

The difference between the two lies in the presence or absence of spirituality, or creativity!

——Do you have spirituality?

Yagami Taichi asked himself this question, and then quickly scanned his character panel.

[Causal Deduction: A special talent formed after the potion refining reaches the perfect level and is combined with the Shocking Palm·Melting Martial Arts. With sufficient intelligence or knowledge, it can deduce the subsequent advancement of knowledge, theory, and skills. The more pre-information and knowledge you master, the more obvious the effect.]

When potion making is upgraded to the maximum level, a talent called "Potion Deduction" will be generated, just like spell drawing.

As the name suggests, one can deduce a completely new potion formula through thinking when the effects of spiritual materials are known.

To exaggerate a little, with this talent alone, Taiyi Yagami will be able to become a top potion master in the future.

however……

At that time, he didn't know whether it was luck or the enhanced intuition that came with his 'Tsukuyomi' talent that played a role.

He subconsciously activated the martial arts fusion method that came with the Shocking Heaven Palm.

Then, 'Cause and Effect Deduction' replaced 'Potion Deduction' and appeared in the talent column of the character panel.

As an advanced level of potion deduction, causal deduction can naturally also deduce potion formulas.

And Yagami Taiyi didn't intend to hide anything. After confirming the types of spiritual materials provided by the Onmyoji Bureau, he hugged his chest and closed his eyes.

The other contestants weren't much better.

Either frowning or showing a distressed expression.

The only two exceptions are Freya and Sayuri Tsuchimikado.

With the help of the fully activated Aquarius Star Armor, the former only thought for a short while before taking out the raw materials for making Type VI Life Enhancement Potion from the spiritual material pile.

After processing them a little, he threw them all into the vase on his shoulder.

As for the latter, he immediately summoned out his nine phantom generals.

And opened his mouth:

"Decree One: Within the domain, the effects of all spiritual materials are increased by one level."

"Decree 2: Within the domain, the effect of the medicine must be the best of its kind."

"Imperial Decree Three, um..."

266 The Wall-hangers' performance

The Nine Phantom Gods of the Tsuchimikado clan can indeed be considered an all-purpose technique among high-level secret techniques.

It can be used as a shikigami in battle, or it can construct a domain and formulate rules that are beneficial to the caster himself.

Unfortunately, Sayuri Tsuchimikado only spent too short a time practicing this spiritual technique.

In addition, his own spiritual power had not yet reached the Ming level, and he was unable to continue after only changing two rules through an imperial decree.

Otherwise, with the domain-like characteristics of the Nine Phantom Gods, the girl might be able to defeat the inheritor of Aquarius and win the championship of the potion-making project in this joint exam!

"Pity……"

Looking at Sayuri Tsuchimikado on the stage, who was pale but couldn't say the third imperial decree, Nura and Ma couldn't help but sigh.

"Yeah, what a pity."

Marshal Max came to his side at some point, sat down without hesitation, and echoed the words.

Nura and Ma glanced at their friend of different ages and said nothing.

But Marshal Max, who seemed to be unable to shut up, began to mutter to himself:

"The leaders of the Royal and Imperial forces and I also intend to attack you, but more importantly, we want to bring down the Aquarius from the Holy See."

"Who would have thought that man proposes, God disposes, and that little girl would actually take a crucial step in the battle last night."

"With the help of that set of golden star armor, she is now so powerful that even if you and I fight against her, there is a high chance that she will be defeated."

The original Freya, although powerful, was not a supermodel character.

The divine power of the six senses plus the golden star armor that has not been fully activated, at most, is just an ordinary Ming-level combat force.

But now...

Pinura and Ma twitched their lips when they heard this.

In his opinion, Aquarius should be able to win at least two events next.

Needless to say, the magic potion refining, the Aquarius Star Armor's built-in Aquarius is no different from a dimensionality reduction attack for other contestants.

And magic battles...

Thinking of this, Nura and Ma first glanced at Taichi Yagami who was in the center of the arena, and then quickly glanced at Suzuki Ken who was sitting not far from him, squinting his eyes and seemed to be dozing off.

——If these two guys can participate...

Then he shook his head helplessly.

Because of next year's ceremony, Taichi Yagami has decided to hide his strength.
