Chapter 94 A Genius of Geniuses
Chapter 94 A Genius of Geniuses
Seeing Lin Yongxi sit down, the magical girl smiled and said, "You're that one, right? The younger sister of [Dawn], the one who just won the beginner group championship. I saw the news."
"Shh!"
Lin Yongxi was terrified. She quickly made a hushed gesture and looked around.
"I'm afraid of being recognized. I just wanted to watch the game..."
She was fed up with being surrounded by a group of people and just wanted some peace and quiet. If she were to be watched by these [Bud]-level magical girls, she wouldn't even be able to escape.
"Haha, don't be so reserved. Actually, most people noticed when you first came into this private room, but they just didn't have time to care."
The magical girl laughed dismissively, patted her shoulder, and said, "Heroes are as numerous as fish in a river. Do you think everyone here is just an ordinary spectator? Weren't you all once brilliant geniuses? When you advanced to the [Bud] level, you all thought you'd be the next [Flower]. Let me tell you, I'm still the champion from back then..."
"champion?"
Lin Yongxi was startled.
"Yeah, just like you, the champion of the beginner group." The magical girl shrugged. "But I've already been eliminated from the intermediate group."
"How could this be...?"
Lin Yongxi couldn't understand it. In her mind, winning the junior group championship was already extremely difficult. To fight your way out of a group of strong opponents and then have to face an opponent like Duan Zhiyao was even more difficult.
Those who stand on the podium and win gold medals are undoubtedly unique geniuses of their time. After advancing to the [Sprout] level, they enjoy abundant resources and limitless potential...
A magical girl like that should at least be standing on the final stage, why is she sitting in the stands?
Lin Yongxi was very curious, but felt it would be too impolite to ask the other person this question, so she hesitated.
"I'm not that petty, because you'll encounter insurmountable mountains like this sooner or later. I used to be very fortunate to be a magical girl born in a peaceful era, so I didn't have to face those terrible and dangerous monsters, but now I realize that for those truly monstrous talents, it's much better to be teammates than opponents."
The magical girl pointed to the arena in the distance, beneath the viewing glass, where the contestants were entering.
"See? I don't need to say more. I was unlucky; I ran into that person in the first round."
That one?
Lin Yongxi looked over curiously, and only then did she realize that everyone in the spectator box had a solemn expression and was turning towards the ring.
It seems something extraordinary has appeared there.
The girl who stepped onto the ring was white-haired.
"It's her!"
Upon seeing it, Lin Yongxi was so surprised that she covered her mouth.
She had seen this younger sister before! Not long ago at the Demon Academy, when she had just passed the assessment and certification, she accidentally wandered into a room on her way out.
The room was arranged very strangely, separated by a glass curtain wall. The room inside the glass was the girl's room, with a bed, various living facilities, and some dolls.
The white-haired girl lived there, like someone living in an observation chamber in a laboratory, being observed by others.
"teacher!"
Lin Yongxi still remembers that when the white-haired girl saw him, she called him by that name.
Could this be my sister's student here? She's a magical girl too, but why is she locked up like this?
Lin Yongxi didn't think too much at the time and immediately ran away. He just never expected to see her again in this setting, and what's more, she was a finalist in the intermediate group?!
How old is she?
The girl who stepped onto the stage looked to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, with a slender figure that seemed as if a slight gust of wind could blow her over.
She had short, white hair that reached her neck, the strands fine and soft with slight natural curls, shimmering almost transparently in the sunlight. Beneath the hair, her face was exquisitely beautiful, like a doll's; her skin was an almost sickly porcelain white, untouched by sunlight for years; she had long, thin eyelashes; and her eyes were pure black, lacking focus.
She was wearing an oversized light gray cotton T-shirt and matching trousers, a simple style that even resembled pajamas, loosely draped over her petite frame. Just like the last time I saw her, the cuffs and trouser legs were rolled up several times to prevent them from dragging on the ground, revealing her slender ankles and arms.
She stood quietly at the edge of the ring, her head slightly bowed, her hands hanging at her sides.
Compared to the enthusiastic atmosphere of the competition, she seemed out of place, like a bewildered and fragile white bird that had mistakenly entered the arena.
However, even her fully armed final opponent did not receive such cheers and applause; her popularity seemed to be on a completely different level.
The sidelines were practically boiling over.
"That's Bai Xi." The magical girl who had been kindly explaining finally spoke up: "The prodigy I was talking about."
"Bai Xi..."
Lin Yongxi seemed to be struck by the name. She didn't even bother to watch the start of the match and immediately opened her phone to search for it.
The more I looked, the more surprised I became.
"A 14-year-old seed-level talent, an unprecedented genius, the youngest contestant in history—could she be the next rising star?"
What exactly is the purpose of this year's competition in Miyuki City? Take a look at this contestant—a crushing performance in every match, an invincible dark horse!
I asked a magical girl I know, and she spoke very highly of her, suspecting she might be the dean's student.
"This year's champion might be in the bag. I suspect the contestants from the remaining cities aren't as good as her..."
Lin Yongxi originally thought that he had become somewhat famous after this competition, but after seeing it, he realized that he was nothing compared to the big fish.
The intermediate group competition is a league held in various cities, and there will be a final match around the city to determine the overall champion. Therefore, it will naturally attract a lot of attention.
But as that magical girl said, "Heroes are as numerous as carp crossing a river," and even among a group of geniuses, the differences are still vast.
This 14-year-old girl had never shown her face in public before, nor had she ever participated in a beginner-level competition. Yet, she appeared at the [Bud] level and brought with her terrifying strength.
Her performance made the outcome of the match a foregone conclusion, and even the odds showed a one-sided situation with no fluctuations.
"He's four years younger than me, and he's already reached the bud stage, and even made it to the finals."
Lin Yongxi knew that Bai Xi's teacher was not the dean of this Demon Academy, [Bixi]...
Instead, it was her older sister, Lin Chaojing, the legendary magical girl known as "Dawn".
Students personally taught by Flower-level students.
When she read these discussion posts, she learned for the first time that Bai Xi's current magical girl codename was "Starry Sky".
When I looked up and saw the ring again, the match had already begun.
