Popularity is everything; I play a super genius

"Was your math taught by a PE teacher?"

"I am an Echoer! I won't learn these things!"

Charles looked utterly dejected; for a moment, he even contemplated suicide.

After answering another question incorrectly, Charles finally figured it out—

Damn it! If you want to die, just die already!

Unable to bear it any longer, Charles immediately used his inner energy to condense a dagger, facing death without fear, and committed suicide.

Unfortunately, Saki's "Moon Descends Overnight" had already been deactivated due to his depleted energy; otherwise, Ciel's suicide would have been inevitable, as he had foreseen the ending.

Oh well, this kid got off easy.

……

As Sharl's spirit dissipated, the ten members of the Karentia finally reunited in the Defenders' Square.

When Charles opened his eyes, he immediately saw nine other "fellow patients" whose bodies were wrapped in bandages and plaster casts.

The bandages and plaster casts here are special spiritual restoration artifacts made by Kalentia.

Things that accelerate spiritual recovery are very rare, but fortunately, these bandages and plaster casts are one of them.

Although before the finals begin, everyone's spirits will be cleansed by the sea of ​​spirits to heal all injuries.

However, the more severe the injury, the more spiritual energy is required, and using spiritual energy to repair the spirit body is an extremely wasteful thing.

If the spirit is intact, or only slightly injured, then the extra spiritual radiance that has been spilled can be used to strengthen the echo core, the well of the heart, and the nascent palace of the finalists.

It can greatly enhance the strength and potential of the echoers.

That's why the contestants are so eager to make it into the final round.

……

Xia Er looked around and was surprised to find that, apart from his team being completely wiped out by Qi Ji,

Among the "patients" is the Sibel Squad!

Even Hilbert himself...

Xia Dun was stunned.

How come this guy, who's known as a "monster" in the country, also lost?

Who did this?!

Just as Ciel was about to ask and discuss the "illness" with Sybel, that disgustingly handsome figure flashed through his mind.

Suddenly, I felt there was no need to ask.

Who else could it be?

In the City of Fire, besides that guy, is there anyone else who can do something like this?

However, Charles still found it hard to believe.

Although that guy was indeed very strong, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to beat him.

However, Sybel possesses the [Genealogy of Kings]!

Is there any echo in this world that can defeat the lineage of kings?

That's outrageous!

For a moment, a thought inexplicably flashed through Charles's mind:

Compared to that unworthy Su Shi, this guy might actually be qualified to be my brother-in-law...

While Xia Er was lost in thought, the teacher in charge, Maya, walked over with a gloomy expression.

While ordering people to put a cast on Charles and bandage him, she moved all the seats together, then took out her tactical board very seriously and began to write and draw.

The upcoming final will be the toughest final ever for Karentia in the City of Fire!

The most stressful final ever!

"Now, the results of the second round are in, and a total of twenty people have advanced to the finals—"

Besides the ten of you, ten people from the City of Fire also advanced.

Maya's gaze swept over everyone present.

"The other nine are nothing to worry about. The only one you need to be careful about is that guy named Saki!"

Seeing the trainees' dejected expressions, she slammed her hand on the tactical board and said:

"Hey! What's with that look on your faces? Get your act together! We're from Kalentia!"

"I know that the strength that Sakiji of the City of Fire has shown in the last two battles is indeed terrifying."

But you who are involved are blinded by your own perspective, while I, standing in the audience, see everything clearly!

Maya took a deep breath, her gaze sharp.

Listen—

I have mastered the surest way to defeat him!
