Reject me, you damn woman.

Since everyone can draw arcane items directly, the rumor that the ultimate grand prize is in the trial level might be true!

Many people figured this out instantly.

Suddenly, the registration office, which was already crowded, became even more crowded.

"I want to sign up! Get out of the way!"

"You are the ones who should get out of the way. My ex-girlfriend who is about to die dreams of seeing me participate in the Spring Cup. Can you bear it?"

........

"Hoohoo!"

In the observation room, Soljana's crystal ball let out a triumphant laugh.

"What a lucky little girl, you actually pulled out the only rare item reward card I placed in the trial level."

"The only one?"

Gust on the side glanced slightly.

"Is there only one reward card? Principal, the rules of this trial are not completely random. Can all rewards be obtained in the trial level?"

"Yes, it is random, but this is what you don't understand, Sir Gust."

The voice in the crystal ball sounded a little guilty, but soon said confidently,

"The lottery was already well-informed from the beginning, and the result is, isn't it a matter of course?"

"If these little guys take away the attractive prizes at the beginning, who will participate in the real Spring Cup?"

"You have to admit that this dean's method is very effective, right?"

Gust couldn't help but nodded speechlessly.

We have to admit that the publicity activities that have been held in previous years at a huge cost may not be as effective as Solgana's ridiculous publicity methods.

He suddenly knew who was the source of the rumor that had been widely circulated in the academy recently...

"Then, the so-called ultimate prize is also in the trial level, so it must be fake."

Gust asked.

"of course."

The voice in the crystal ball rose again.

"However, although that card is in the prize pool, it is impossible to be drawn."

"By the way, this isn't because I'm unethical. This is for the good of the students, hahahaha!"

"For the students' sake?"

Gust couldn't quite keep up with Solgana's train of thought. How could deliberately operating behind the scenes be considered good for the students?

"Because this so-called ultimate prize is actually not a reward, but a very powerful monster."

Gust could almost imagine the dean covering his mouth and laughing in front of him.

"That is a fourth-level monster that can be placed at the last stage of the Spring Cup in previous years as the gatekeeper of the final treasure. If you defeat it, you will get the Dean's Reward that I specially prepared, which is also the ultimate prize of this Spring Cup~"

"It's a pity. With the students' abilities, there is only one way to defeat it. You must obtain the special magic item that restrains monsters in the Cup of Spring. And you encounter it in the trial level where there is nothing. Hehehehe~~~ Then you can only consider yourself unlucky."

"I came to the Spring Cup with full confidence, but I encountered a big boss in the trial level that should only appear in the final level. I was directly eliminated. Isn't this the ultimate prize!"

Listening to the dean's signature evil laughter, Gust did not follow her to express his thoughts or make complaints, but just stared at the water mirror magic with a serious face.

"Master Dean, the monster you mentioned is a mutant demon spirit. It should be about the fourth level. Because of the rampage of the magic circuit in its body, it has grown many wrong limbs. There are also some signs of elementalization on its body. It should be wood attribute."

"As expected of you, Sir Gust... Wait, how the hell did you know that? I never told you, did I?"

"Because someone seems to have won the ultimate jackpot."

Gust held his forehead helplessly and pointed at the water mirror.

In the registration hall, all the arcane screens that were originally displaying the trial queue numbers suddenly began to flash red exclamation marks after Lin En entered his information. The image and information of a fourth-level demon spirit slowly appeared on the screen with a huge sense of oppression.

"What happened, who is taking part in the trial?"

"Why does his trial level have special effects?"

"This special effect...isn't this the special effect that was broadcast to the entire hospital after someone unlocked the BOSS level of the Spring Cup in previous years? No way, someone really encountered the final BOSS in the trial level?"

A demon spirit is a monster that has mutated from some kind of creature because the magic web in its body has fallen into chaos. It has no ability to think, but because of the magic web it can release arcane magic by instinct. Moreover, because of its elementalization, its speed and strength are greatly enhanced, and it is even immune to arcane attacks to a certain extent. It can be said to be one of the opponents that arcane masters of the same level are most reluctant to face alone.

There are generally two ways to defeat a demon. One is to rely on its powerful attack power to physically destroy it, and the other is to make its already chaotic magic network even more chaotic, causing it to self-destruct.

The students who had passed the trial and qualified for the Spring Cup all breathed a sigh of relief. No one expected that the final gatekeeper of the Spring Cup would be a demon spirit. If they ran into it unexpectedly without any preparation, they would basically be eliminated.

At this time, all it takes is one unlucky person, and the others will prepare in advance how to face the evil spirits.

Who is so unlucky?

On the screen, the unlucky guy's name slowly appeared:

Lynn Norton!

The hall was instantly in chaos, and in the observation room, the smirking voice in the crystal ball could no longer laugh:

"Some unlucky guy has really been drawn. It's over. How come his last name is Norton? Could it be that little prince? How could it be such a coincidence?"

Soljana's voice finally became panicked, and the sound of a chair falling to the ground came from the crystal ball.

"Divilla seemed to hope that he could win the championship, but because of me, he couldn't even pass the trial...Isn't she angry about this?"

"Given your friendship, His Majesty will probably only convict you of deceiving the emperor."

"Compared to those, isn't it okay for Lin En?"

Gust said lightly.

"Who cares? Any normal person would give up immediately!"

"Wow!! I can't think so much. As long as I slide down quickly enough, Divira can't blame me!"

Solgana was already numb, she never expected that even though she had deliberately adjusted the probability of occurrence, there would still be someone who could draw this Trial Card that would definitely lead to elimination, and that person happened to be Lin En!

Just when the dean was thinking about whether to apologize by rubbing his face against the Queen's black silk thighs or letting her step on his head in her high heels, the huge red exclamation mark suddenly changed into a red check mark.

The observation room suddenly fell into a deathly silence.

"Sir Gust, you guys modified the display mode while I was away, right? Now the display of giving up the challenge and accepting the challenge will become completely opposite, right?"

"No, Dean,"

Gust's face was flushed due to the dazzling reflection of the light in the water mirror:

"You are in charge of everything for this Spring Cup. If you don't modify the relevant settings, it means..."

"Did he really accept the trial?"

"Is that guy crazy? What is he thinking? He doesn't need to risk his life to get angry with his mother. Stop the trial quickly!"

Soljana felt like she was going crazy. She had never seen such a foolish prince.

At this moment, Gust suddenly said faintly:

"Maybe it's not just a matter of anger?"

"What do you mean?"

This time, it was Solgana who didn't understand what Gust was saying.

"Dean, you don't know yet,"

Gust suddenly sighed.

"Due to the order of Her Majesty the Queen, the Shadow Knights have cancelled their special protection for the academy."

"What, that woman is crazy?!"

Soljana was horrified, not knowing how many enemies of the empire were eyeing the Eden Academy, which continuously produced a large number of arcanists for the empire. She had never expected that the Queen would give such an order.

"Unfortunately, this is true, but as far as I know, Lin En made a bet with Her Majesty the Queen."

"That is, as long as he can win the Spring Cup, the Empire will grant the academy protection again."

Gust said word by word.

........

On the other side, at the scene, after seeing Lin En actually accepted the trial, the students were all full of questions.

"Is this freshman looking for shit in the toilet? He dares to challenge a fourth-level demon. Does he want to die?"

"You are not allowed to say that, His Highness Lin En. He must have his own reasons for doing this!"

As for the two heroines, Elena had a worried look on her face, while Historia was laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her back.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that the super unlucky guy was actually a nuisance. This is really going to be fun!"

What was unexpected was that upon hearing Historia's laughter, Elena actually frowned and showed an angry expression:

"Xia, how can you still laugh?"

"Don't be angry, Xiao Ai."

Historia felt a little guilty, but for a moment she couldn't think of why she couldn't laugh.

"Do you forget it?"

Elena tried to control her tone, but still spoke with a hint of accusation:

"It was because you complained that the battle levels were troublesome that Lin En took the initiative to exchange trial items with you, right?"

"He is now bearing the test that you should have gone through. How can you still laugh?"

Elena forced herself to shut up and held back the words "Do you have no heart or no brain?"

In fact, there is no need for her to say more.

Because just after being enlightened by his good friend, a huge sense of guilt had engulfed Historia.

"He exchanged the cards... to help me?"

Historia stared at the back of the person who followed the teacher into the trial level, his eyes full of disbelief.

.........

In the carriage, the owner of the pair of blue eyes showed a moment of surprise, then regained his composure.

"Did you really accept it?"

"But if it's Lynn Sama, maybe there really is a way."

However, even though she said this, the girl's white jade fingers still tightly grasped the curtain of the carriage.

........

"Classmate, this is your last chance. It's not too late for you to quit now."

Inside the trial gate, the teacher in charge of the trial turned to Lin En behind him and said with a serious face.

The demon spirit is a monster with a very high resistance to magic. Although he will watch the trial throughout, he can only ensure that Lin En's life is safe, but he cannot guarantee whether he will be injured.

"Don't worry, teacher. If it was any other monster, I might have given up. But I happen to have a friend who hates this kind of monster. Thanks to her, I have special skills to fight against monsters. Besides, since we have come this far, there is no reason to give up."

Lynn smiled as before.

"Oh? In that case, alright."

Hearing what he said, the teacher also became interested.

The demon spirit can be said to be the monster that the arcanist least wants to face alone, but since Lin En is so confident, maybe he really has something?

If his method is effective, maybe it can be promoted among students.

With this in mind, the teacher lifted the restrictions, released the demon spirits, and sealed the trial field.

In an instant, a frenzied and massive flow of magical power filled the entire venue.

The uncontrolled, rampant magic power spread out like the tentacles of an insect, and finally entangled Lin En, the only living thing in the venue.

coming!
