Jiang Yuan was somewhat puzzled; sometimes having too many backpack cards wasn't necessarily a good thing.
After today's competition ended, he planned to go back and tidy up his backpack cards.
Sort out the various cards with different effects each into their own categories.
For example, the 36 Transformations and the 72 Transformations, these series' cards should be placed in two separate backpack cards.
Of course, these were all One-time Skill Cards that could be sold.
The cards he used himself would naturally be placed separately in a backpack card.
So it was during the period when he was making the Seventy-two Changes Series that, because he was making cards every day and even thinking about what materials to use for the card in his sleep,
He was not only dizzy every day but also muddled, to the point where he didn't even know how many days had passed, as he hadn't gone out at all.
Therefore, it was normal sometimes to get the cards mixed up.
"Hmm? What card is able to see through that box to view its contents?"
Hearing Jiang Yuan say this, Ai Xiu and Li Chengyi beside him also became interested and crowded around Jiang Yuan to watch his actions.
"Found it!"
At the moment when the two were curiously watching, Jiang Yuan suddenly pulled out a card from his backpack card.
"Good thing I thought of this card today, or else it would have been sent out."
Jiang Yuan felt somewhat relieved; unexpectedly, it was found in the custom card backpack intended for Qin Boyuan from Zhenhai City.
It was also fortunate that he had a vague impression of it; otherwise, it really would have been sent off.
"What card is this?"
Seeing the two lean in with curiosity, Jiang Yuan activated the Purple Quality Card in his hand and said to them.
"Seventy-two Changes Series, Arrow Cover!"
"The effect is to enhance the probability of guessing the items in a certain space."
After using this card, Jiang Yuan also turned to look at the stage.
At that moment, the stage was undergoing the second round of draws between Yu Chengtian and Miao Xinghuo.
Jiang Yuan looked at the ball Miao Xinghuo pulled out of the box and had a vague feeling in his heart.
"Seems like it's me?"
This was Jiang Yuan's first time using this Skill Card, so he spoke somewhat uncertainly.
However, soon after, Miao Xinghuo aimed the ball at the camera.
"Zhongyuan Academy, Jiang Yuan."
"Really you?"
Ai Xiu was somewhat surprised, and immediately urged Jiang Yuan to guess the next one.
After Miao Xinghuo took out a ball, Yu Chengtian also reached his hand into the box.
"It seems to be her?"
The second time Jiang Yuan had some confidence but still looked unsurely at a girl beside him.
The girl was Zhan Youqing, ranked ninth at the Martial Arts Academy.
"Martial Arts Academy, Zhan Youqing."
Yu Chengtian's expression darkened as he read the name on the ball in his hand.
If it were someone else, he would have applauded, since the effects of Jiang Yuan's Bow and Arrow were still unclear, and someone else going up to test them out would make things clearer.
But if that person was from their own academy, then it was not so good.
But maybe this was just luck, and he could only hope now that the student from his academy could withstand Jiang Yuan.
"Wow, impressive!"
Seeing this scene, Ai Xiu couldn't help getting excited: "How did you do that?"
"Just an indescribable feeling."
Jiang Yuan sighed lightly, withdrawing the now dimmed card back into his mental space.
The duration was only ten seconds, and it could only "see" the items in a covered space.
Somewhat useful, but not very versatile.
"An indescribable feeling?"
Li Chengyi found it odd but did not say much.
How to describe this Skill effect? It indeed didn't seem very useful.
[I feel like Jiang Yuan is in danger this time.]
[Zhan Youqing is not easy to deal with, compared to the previous people.]
[If his artifacts are what we judged them to be, then Zhan Youqing indeed won't be easy to deal with.]
[I still want to see Jiang Yuan win the championship, wonder if there's a chance (dog head)]
[Who?]
[If Jiang Yuan wins the championship, I'll lick my way from Daxia Academy to Zhongyuan Academy!]
[Jiang Yuan wins the championship, and I'll emerge once again, reopening my fish pond!]
[Jiang Yuan winning the championship is another matter, but could the person above teach me how to open a fish pond?]
[That depends on talent, you ugly folks best not humiliate yourselves.]
[...]
[...…]
[You *****, I ***, you *******, young master I ****!]
There were only thirteen contestants in total, and the draw was over quickly.
The order of the battles was determined by the drawing of lots.
The first match would be Li Chengyi versus Bei Le'an.
The second match would be Jiang Yuan against Zhan Youqing.
The third match would be Shi Zhuan against Li Fawei.
The fourth match would be Wei Qiyou against Qi Baohuang.
The fifth match would be Huang Huanqing against Bai Fusi.
The sixth match would be Tu Wenbing against Ai Xiu.
The bye went to Ye Jinhuan of Zhongyuan Academy.
"It looks like our luck isn't too bad, at the very least we didn't draw an internal battle."
After the drawing, the four deputy principals returned to their seats to watch the upcoming battles.
"Indeed, we are quite lucky, but Bai Fusi from your academy, ranked second, is in for a tough time," Yu Chengtian commented with a chuckle, rubbing his bald head as he spoke to Miao Xinghuo.
Miao Xinghuo, who had been all smiles, suddenly turned gloomy: "Beast Taming Card Masters should, just like Support Card Masters, refrain from participating in arena battles!"
"Hahaha!"
The three burst into laughter, but Miao Xinghuo didn't care: "These acts of outnumbering and bullying are too shameless!"
"It's a professional trait. If you're not happy with it, you could change profession now."
"Change profession?"
Miao Xinghuo looked disdainfully at Guan Chutian: "What a joke. If I were to change professions, wouldn't all my past efforts and resources be wasted?"
"Then why didn't you choose to be a Beast Taming Card Master in the first place?" Yu Chengtian also joined in the laughter, rubbing his bald head and smirking at Miao Xinghuo.
"I was too poor back then. If I had chosen that profession, I might not even be alive now."
"Alright, enough with the jokes, let's focus on the battles."
Seeing Miao Xinghuo and Yu Chengtian getting more and more heated, Guan Chutian had to step forward to stop them.
"It's fine, you two carry on, this match isn't that interesting to watch."
Jin Lingyu's eyes narrowed slightly, "Li Chengyi is certain to win; there's virtually no chance of him losing."
Yu Chengtian fell silent.
As much as it was irksome, what Jin Lingyu said was indeed the truth.
Their academy's Bei Le'an was also a Skill Card Master.
If he were facing someone else, there might still be a chance to fight.
However, against Li Chengyi, famously known as the mage of all trades, Bei Le'an essentially had no chance of victory.
You should know that Skill Card Masters usually select one or two attributes, at most three or four, as their main methods of attack.
The choice of these attributes makes resource acquisition and post-Sixth Realm advancement somewhat simpler.
But when facing an all-attribute Skill Card Master like Li Chengyi, it seemed rather inadequate.
Because no matter what attribute Skill Card you use, it could be countered by the opponent.
Under such circumstances, unless you're stronger than the opponent or have greater combat power.
Clearly, Bei Le'an did not have greater combat ability than Li Chengyi.
Watching the battle between the two, Yu Chengtian couldn't help but fall silent.
And, as expected, the outcome didn't surprise anyone—Li Chengyi won the match and successfully advanced to the top eight.
"It's okay, no problem, our Martial Arts Academy has more than just him."
After Bei Le'an was eliminated, Yu Chengtian patted his bald head, consoling himself.
"The next match, Zhan Youqing will definitely defeat your academy's Jiang Yuan, avenging Bei Le'an."
Yu Chengtian said this and then looked towards Jin Lingyu.
However, Jin Lingyu, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, still had that smiley face, making it impossible for the others to discern his inner thoughts.
"Who do you think will win?"
Seeing Jin Lingyu like this, Yu Chengtian also asked the others with a mischievous grin.
"Taking bets?"
