The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life-Chapter 177: Dark Demon Enters The Finals

Even though Emma knew that it meant "I came all the way from the loser's group", she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

She frowned as she walked off the player's platform, feeling slightly tight-chested and a little difficult to breathe. There was also a feeling that she couldn't grasp.

The students of Knight House didn't laugh or mock her because of her defeat, but welcomed her very warmly.

Just the skill she displayed in this duel was enough for her to be respected.

Emma slowly recovered as she was comforted by Susan and Lucy.

But deep down she felt a stronger desire for victory!

...

The last duel of the loser's group was over.

Only the Grand final battle was left in the competition!

The students who watched the competition so far all felt that the competition was too short.

Although the duels in the intra-class competition may not be as exciting as the official duels, all the contestants were students of the same year who had frequent contact with each other. Coupled with students rooting for their respective House representatives, the competition became much more immersive.

Knight House and Fool House felt a little pity that they couldn't win the championship.

On the other side, the tension between the Noble House and Magister House gradually rose.

There seemed to be sparks colliding between Doron and Heidi, as if they were ready to fight tooth and nail at any moment.

Dark and Sara, on the other hand, found a place to sit down separately to replenish their magic cards with magic energy, and arrange their decks.

...

Sitting on a bench,

Dark took out the deck.

Now that most of Sara's cards had been exposed, he knew that both [Sphynx Cat] and [Living Mummy] were very difficult to deal with.

The previous tactics against Emma obviously could not be replicated.

In order to win, it was necessary for him to adjust the deck in a targeted manner.

Dark first took out the magic cards of the deadly sin series.

[Pride I], [Pride II], [Lust III].

Among them, the CD of [Pride Ⅱ] still hadn't ended, but [Lust Ⅲ] could be used now, and the CD of [Pride Ⅰ] should also be able to end before the final.

Since the defects of [Lust III] needed to be compensated by [Pride Ⅰ], these two magic cards were required to be added to the deck.

Correspondingly, [Phantom Magic Beast: Eevee] should also be added to the deck.

In addition, [Shuckle] and [Trash Slime] that could hide into Shuckle's body were also required.

After that, he could pick two from [Miltank], [Gatomon], and [Sylveon] to be added into the deck.

In terms of the rest...

After careful consideration, Dark decided not to add more cards! 𝚋𝚎ｄ𝚗ｏｖ𝚎𝚕．ｃｏ𝚖

...

So a set of magic cards targeting Sara's deck was formed!

A total of seven magic cards, streamlined to the limit while minimising randomness.

...

Dianna and Rose didn't walk closer until Dark put away the magic cards.

Dianna handed him a toffee and encouraged, "You must win!"

Dark opened the candy wrapper, popped the toffee into his mouth, and said, "Sure!"

Rose took the candy wrapper from his hand with a smile and said, "I'm rooting for you!"

...

"I'll try my best, then."

Dark adjusted his mind and walked to the arena.

The students had already surrounded the ① arena, and the atmosphere was extremely intense.

In order to prevent the students from Noble House and Magister House from arguing, the professors had to intervene, driving them to opposite sides of the arena.

The students of Noble House voluntarily gathered to the side near the red player's platform, adjacent to the Knight House led by Emma.

Dark glanced around, and then walked to the red player's platform.

"Hey, Dark!" someone suddenly called out.

Dark turned his head to look, smiling, "What's the matter, Doron?"

Doron's face flushed slightly with excitement. He raised his hard clenched fist and said loudly: "Defeat her for me!"

Dark was taken aback for a moment, but still responded without a trace of hesitation: "Okay."

Seeing that Doron got a response, the other boys around him hurriedly shouted:

"And for us too!"

"Don't forget, there's me too!"

"You must win!"

"Take the champion for the Noble House!"

...

Dark had no idea that just an in-class competition could make the little magisters so excited.

But thinking about it carefully, the intra-class competition this time was indeed very different from the first in-class competition and it did look a little like a formal competition.

The intensity of this competition was far from the first competition.

For the little magisters, this may be the first true dueling match in their hearts!

So Dark raised his hand and responded, "Definitely!"

Then he stepped onto the player's platform.

...

The students of Knight House looked at Noble House with some envy. In fact, they also hoped that the players from their house would also be able to enter the final, but they had all done their best.

"It can't be helped. We lost after all."

"We can only blame our own incompetence."

"Next semester, we will definitely defeat them!"

...

Seeing that no one mentioned him, White suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

...

After Dark and Sara stepped onto the platforms respectively, Professor Jones said solemnly: "I know everyone has been looking forward to this moment for a long time. Noble House's Dark Demon and Magister House's Sara Swati both showed a very high level of skill in this competition. Maybe by next semester, you will be able to see them in the real dueling arena! It has only been three months. Three months ago, they were freshmen just like you, and didn't know anything about magic duels. But three months later today, their levels are already unmatched by many students. As for the reasons behind this, I hope everyone can take some time to reflect on them after this competition is over. In the second semester of the first year, I wish more students can join the Dueling Club and become contestants of the arena! Okay, it's enough with the speech. Let the final begin!"

...

As expected of a professor. Even someone like Pavar Jones, who wasn't an eloquent person, could quickly dampen the students' enthusiasm with just a few words.

Dark looked at the silence outside the field and couldn't help revealing a smile.

After putting a total of seven magic cards into the card slot on the card table, he looked at his opponent and said, "Good luck."

Sara raised her chin slightly and said proudly, "You too."

Dark nodded and said, "Then, let's start the second duel."

Sara: "This time, the result will be different!"

Dark: "Not necessarily."

...

The communication between both sides may seem dull on the surface, but there were hidden undercurrents.

The atmosphere that was suppressed by Professor Jones's words on the sidelines became lively again.

The Noble House boys headed by Doron suddenly shouted the slogan: "Dark! Dark! Victory! Victory!"

The unexpectedly uniform slogan made Dark's ears turn red with embarrassment.

The students of the Magister House were provoked by the shouts. Heidi, who had braided hair, immediately shouted: "Sara! Sara! Invincible! Invincible!"
