Illimitable Until Death

Chapter 315: IUD-CHAPTER 315 SHIPPUU JINRAI AND GLÜHEN ROSE

When Fang Li and Cecily arrived at the Yellow Dragon Temple’s audience room, there were already quite a few people present.

In addition to the ever-composed Fan Xinglou sitting on a wide chair, Zhao Hufeng also accompanied her in his role as a secretary.

Furthermore, the Li siblings, Li Shenyun and Li Shenhua had also arrived.

Seeing Fang Li and Cecily enter from outside the door, Fan Xinglou greeted them with a cheerful smile on her face.

“You’ve finally arrived. If you didn’t show up soon, I’d start losing my patience.”

Clearly, with the “Festa” about to begin, the mood of this extremely battle-hungry Monster Immortal had surged.

In the face of Fan Xinglou’s enthusiasm, Zhao Hufeng could only sigh wearily, as if he had been put through quite a lot by Fan Xinglou.

As for the Li siblings, they greeted Fang Li and Cecily with somewhat forced smiles and bowed respectfully.

“Senior Sister Wong, Little Junior Brother, hello.”

“Hello, Senior Sister. Hello, Junior Brother.”

Their polite greetings, even if they seemed a bit forced, were impeccable.

Cecily waved her hand in response to this and said, “No need for excessive formality.”

As for Fang Li, he simply glanced at the Li siblings and then chose to ignore them.

After all, he had already offended them earlier, so Fang Li naturally didn’t need to make forced greetings like the Li siblings.

The Li siblings didn’t seem to mind this at all, or perhaps they hadn’t even thought much of it from the beginning.

After they made their perfunctory bows, they immediately turned their attention to Fan Xinglou.

“Master,” Zhao Hufeng finally spoke up, saying, “Now that everyone is here, would you please announce the list of participants for the ‘Phoenix Festa’?”

“Understood,” Fan Xinglou, in a seemingly good mood, raised her hand and opened a spatial window, enlarging it and projecting it into the air.

Everyone in the room immediately focused their attention on the spatial window.

On it, the names were listed one by one, simultaneously arranged in the form of a tournament schedule, showing the groupings.

This year’s “Phoenix Festa” had 512 participants and was divided into 256 groups.

The event was scheduled to last for two weeks, with the first week being the preliminary rounds, from which the top thirty-two would be selected to advance to the main tournament and compete against each other.

“The opening of the competition is tomorrow, and the main venue will be the stage in the administrative district. Each group will go to their respective stages as assigned and compete with students from the Six Great Academies.”

Zhao Hufeng began to explain the details to Fang Li’s group.

“After the preliminary rounds, the opponents for the main tournament will be determined by drawing lots. Your group, Group Two, is considered one of the most likely to win the championship in our academy, so we have prepared contestant information in advance for you, including information on some of the top contenders for the championship.”

Saying this, Zhao Hufeng manipulated the spatial window and divided it into four parts, which he then handed to Fang Li, Cecily, Li Shenyun, and Li Shenhua.

Immediately, Fang Li’s group focused their attention on the information, browsing the details they were most concerned about.

For example, Fang Li, being the first to receive the information, began by reviewing the contestant information for Seidoukan Academy.

Among the Six Great Academies, each excelled in different aspects due to their school culture and nature.

Some academies were particularly skilled in certain Festa events.

For example, Saint Galahadworth Academy excelled in team-oriented “Gryphon Festa,” Rewolf Black Academy specialized in individual-focused “Lindwurm Festa,” and Seidoukan Academy was known for its strength in the partner-oriented “Phoenix Festa.”

Jie Long Seventh Academy had a well-rounded approach, with no particular strengths in any Festa but excelling in various competitions, maintaining a balance.

As for Arlequint Research Institute, they were known for their unpredictable performance in specific events.

Their strengths in Festa would change over time.

Queenvail Women’s Academy, on the other hand, didn’t prioritize Festa results at all, so they had no particular strengths in any Festa.

Given the circumstances, since Fang Li was participating in the “Phoenix Festa,” he naturally began by reviewing the information about Seidoukan Academy.

Without any issues, Fang Li easily found his target and opened the information for one of the teams.

First and foremost, two photographs popped up from the spatial window.

These were pictures of two girls.

Both girls were wearing Seidoukan Academy uniforms, but one was in the high school division uniform while the other was in the middle school division uniform.

Fang Li was somewhat familiar with the girl in the middle school division uniform.

“Is that Toudou Kirin?” Zhao Hufeng observed Fang Li’s actions and spoke with a solemn expression.

“She’s indeed a formidable opponent.”

Toudou Kirin ranked first in the Seidoukan Academy’s Sequence, is also known as “Shippuu Jinrai.”

The timid girl who was in front of her uncle, Fang Li’s formidable opponent, had surprisingly signed up for the “Phoenix Festa.”

Fang Li raised his eyebrows and looked at Fan Xinglou, asking, “This shouldn’t be arranged by Toudou Kirin’s uncle, right?”

This matter wasn’t even mentioned in the intelligence reports.

However, Fang Li knew that Fan Xinglou must have checked it.

After all, Fan Xinglou was quite fond of this genius girl who had become first in the Seidoukan Sequence at just thirteen years old.

It would be impossible for him not to gather some information about her.

As expected, Fan Xinglou answered Fang Li’s question.

“After the report of your defeat reached the Integrated Enterprise Foundation behind Seidoukan Academy, Toudou Kirin’s uncle lost his chance to become the successor Leader and no longer has any opportunities for promotion,” Fan Xinglou said with a mischievous smile.

“So, Toudou Kirin was directly abandoned.”

In other words, Toudou Kirin’s decision to participate in the “Phoenix Festa” this time was entirely her own.

Of course, Toudou Kirin was still young, so she probably didn’t actively choose to participate in the “Phoenix Festa.” Perhaps she was invited by someone?

And the person who invited “Shippuu Jinrai” to team up for the “Phoenix Festa” was the other girl in the two photos Fang Li clicked on.

She wore Seidoukan Academy’s high school division uniform, had long, rose-pink waist-length hair, a well-proportioned figure, and a dignified appearance reminiscent of a knight.

“Oh?” Cecily’s lazy expression suddenly disappeared, and she stared at the photo with enthusiasm.

“Could it be that this is Julis-Alexia Riessfeld, the ‘Glühen Rose’ of Seidoukan Academy?”

“The ‘Glühen Rose’?”

Her full name was Julis-Alexia Riessfeld.

As her name implied, this young girl was a Strega (Witch) with the ability to manipulate flames.

In Seidoukan Academy, this Strega (Witch) was ranked fifth, but in terms of combat power alone, it was said that she could rank in the top three.

Looking at this young girl, Fang Li’s thoughts suddenly became active.
