  Chapter 176 Abstain?

  If he didn't have the strength to deal with these declining troops in one go, the possibility of successfully breaking through and going deep into the ruins would be extremely slim.

  With Yihua's current strength as a third-class apprentice, he can only control two dead men and horses at the same time.

  Unless dozens of dead men and horses are used to kill the undead in the ruins bit by bit, it is almost impossible to penetrate the ruins just by being a third-class apprentice.

  As for being promoted to a fourth-class apprentice, for him who has just been promoted to a third-class apprentice, if there are no accidents, it will take at least a year and a half.

  "Since the strength of the wizard cannot be counted on, we can only count on the strength of the knight."

  Compared with the wizard, Yihua has reached one-third of the level of the earth knight, and is far away from reaching the higher level of the sky knight. It only takes a maximum of two months to reach the threshold.

  If you can obtain a secret treasure similar to the branch of life along the way, this time can be shortened.

  After being promoted to a Sky Knight comparable to a fourth-level apprentice, if the burst of life is activated again, it will be supplemented by a half-dead witch body and a witchcraft scroll, as well as enough dead men and horses to help out.

  Yihua is extremely confident that he can defeat the hordes of dead men in the ruins head-on.

  After deciding on the next step, Yi Hua estimated the time and realized that the semi-finals of the college competition were already close at hand.

  At present, the number of dead men and horses in his hands has exceeded double digits. In addition, if he wants to hunt dead men and horses during the low tide, he can only dive into the deep sea. Yihua decisively gave up the idea of ​​​​continuing to enslave the dead men and horses.

  There was a distortion in the space. After a while, Yihua, who was slightly dizzy, opened his eyes again. What he saw in front of him was a familiar study room with the smell of magic ink.

  Yihua, who returned to his original world, didn't waste any time and took the time to restore himself.

  In this process, time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was time for the finals of the Academy Competition to begin.

  Yihua, who was ready, went directly to the venue of the academy competition based on the location in his memory.

  The journey was smooth, and Yihua soon entered the arena where the competition had just begun, with only a few apprentices entering and taking their seats.

  Due to Yihua's previous upset, he broke into the top three in the competition by killing the bloody hand.

  Yihua is now considered a well-known figure in the academy, and he has encountered a large number of apprentices watching and greeting him along the way.

  In order to increase the efficiency of the merit points obtained, Yihua accepted all comers and used his reputation to vigorously promote the Illuminati.

  Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, Rey, Melkor and others also came to the arena and sat in the contestants' seats, nearly ten meters apart from each other.

  As for Gabriel and Anna, they also came to the arena to watch the game.

  The two expressed support and encouragement to Yihua in their own ways, and Yihua also gave them a reassuring look.

  Since this is the last and most valuable game of this academy competition, most apprentices in the academy do not want to miss this game.

  It didn't take long for the arena, which could accommodate ten thousand people, to be overcrowded.

  At the last moment before the start of the game, seven fifth-level instructors arrived at the critical moment and took their seats in the referee's seat.

  Seeing seven fifth-level instructors gathered here, there was a burst of cheers from the spectator seats outside the stadium.

  Seeing that unlike previous competitions, this time there were seven fifth-level tutors gathered in the academy competition, including Melkor's tutor, the blond boy-looking "Blood Maker" Petain, Yihua's expression condensed.

  "With Petain present, it seems that in the next game, even if Melkor is defeated, it will be difficult to kill Melkor." In the previous game, the two

  mentors present deliberately favored Yihua and Rey, and deliberately Suppress Melkor, Bloodhand and others.

  This can create a situation where Yihua can kill Bloody Hand, but Bloody Hand cannot kill Gabriel.

  Now that seven fifth-level instructors have gathered together, the previous loopholes have been lost.

  Before the game started, Yihua and the other three players were all silent and did not communicate with each other.

  After a while, the old-looking fourth-class referee who had presided over the competition flew up to the front desk and announced:

  "No more nonsense, I declare that the finals of this college competition have officially begun!"

  After hearing the referee announcing the start of the competition, The audience in the audience fell into a brief silence. Soon, many audience members cheered after reacting.

  When the voices in the audience fell down, the referee spoke again:

  "Since there are three players left, this final will adopt a best-of-three-game system. Only the player who wins two games in the duel can win the championship!" This

  ! The mechanism also means that any one of the three players present will definitely play against the other two once.

  Hearing this mechanism, Rey raised his eyebrows and looked at Yihua, who was silent on the side. Seeing that Yihua didn't respond, Rey opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything more.

  Seeing that the commotion outside the field gradually subsided, the referee did not waste time and started the drawing process directly.

  After a while, the fourth-class apprentice referee picked up the tag in his hand and announced:
  "I announce that in the first game, Yihua will face... Rey!"

  Upon hearing this result, the Silver Star Club and Illumination outside the court The apprentices became entangled one after another.

  Neither of them are weak, but according to the best-of-three-game rule in the final, this also means that one of the two will almost certainly be eliminated.

  "I think Yihua has a better chance of winning. In the previous game, he used overwhelming power to kill Xue Hand, who had reached the third level of physical fitness and was in a state of madness!" A young man outside the field said

  . Wait for the apprentice to look firmly in his eyes.

  "That's not necessarily true. Although Yihua, with his Earth Knight-level physique, is already at the same level as Rey, who was promoted to a third-class apprentice, the higher the level, the greater the gap between knights and wizards. In my case, It seems that Rey has a better chance of winning."

  After a while, there was a fierce quarrel outside the court over the outcome of Yi and Hua.

  During this period, Rey used the air control technique, and easily flew to the arena dozens of meters away in a flash.

  However, on the other side, Yihua was sitting in his seat, motionless.

  While Rey and many watching apprentices were confused, Yihua stood up, looked at the referee in the air, and said bluntly:
  "Senior referee, I choose to abandon this game."

  As soon as Yihua said this, outside the stadium It caused an uproar.

  "Abandoned the game? What happened? Did I hear you correctly?"

  The apprentices watching the game looked around with doubts on their faces. When they saw the people around them showing the same expression, they couldn't help but exclaimed with shock on their faces.

  "Are you sure?"

  Ignoring the chaos outside the court, the referee frowned, glanced back and forth at Yihua's face, and spoke again in surprise to confirm.

  Upon hearing the referee's confirmation, Yihua said directly without any hesitation or regret,
  "Yes, I'm sure."

  Seeing that Yihua had no intention of going back on his words, the referee said no more, coughed slightly, and announced through the amplification wizardry:
  "Because player Yihua abstained, Rey won the first game!"

  "It's actually true! The game. The extremely popular Necromancer gave up so hastily before it even started? What a disappointment!"

  Although the news had been confirmed by the referee, some apprentices outside the field who supported Yihua's victory felt a little incredible.

  "Maybe you think you are no match for Rey?"

  Some people speculated uncertainly.

  "But now that there are seven fifth-level instructors present, most people will definitely try their best to perform. Even if they lose, it doesn't matter. The decision to surrender before fighting will most likely lower the impression of the instructors on him. I don't know what he is thinking."

  Hearing the suspicion and speculation around her, Anna, who was watching the battle not far away, also showed a look of surprise.

  On the other side, Gabriel is already somewhat famous due to his outstanding ranking in the college competition. In addition, he was assigned by Yihua to be fully responsible for the Illuminati's promotion and recruitment.

  Now he has a status second only to Yihua among the hundreds of first- and second-class apprentices of the Illuminati.

  Seeing the members of the Illuminati around them, they got into a lot of arguments because of Yihua's surrender.

  Gabriel, who had fiery red hair and a young and handsome face, spoke out to interrupt the dispute around him in order to protect Yihua's reputation.

  "Have you forgotten that the vice-president was so upset and invincible that he killed two vice-presidents of the Freemasonry?"

  Due to the reputation that Gabriel had accumulated, after Gabriel opened his mouth, the surrounding light The apprentices all focused their attention on Gabriel.

  Seeing this, Gabriel spoke again:
  "Let's not talk about whether the Vice President has other trump cards. Even if he doesn't, with the current physique of the Earth Knight, he is fully capable of fighting against the third-class apprentice! Therefore, I think the vice-president must have his own plan!"

  After hearing what Gabriel said, many Illuminati members who knew that Gabriel had a close relationship with Vice-President Yihua and had won each other's trust suddenly believed it.

  At this moment, Li Wei, who had previously been instructed by Yi Hua to purchase the mutated white dawn, also stepped forward.

  Jiang Yihua pointed out that he could buy the mutated white dawn at the low price of a witch crystal, and just by taking a petal, he had the opportunity to break through to become a formal knight.

  After hearing Li Wei's experience, some apprentices who were still dubious also lowered their suspicion of Yi Hua and chose to believe Yi Hua.

  As for what Yi Hua's plan is, it's up to the apprentices present to figure it out, because even Gabriel himself doesn't know.

  But out of the trust he had accumulated in Yihua for a long time, he still believed in his statement.

  "By the way, after the competition is over, there will be the apprentice exam!"

  Just as Gabriel was racking his brains to think, his eyes suddenly lit up.

  "Compared to the apprenticeship exam, the rewards from the academy competition are insignificant. Perhaps Brother Yihua wants to show weakness to the enemy, so that he can be upset in the exam a few days later and perform even more amazingly, just like he was a blockbuster in the competition before. Same!"

  The more Gabriel thought about it, the more likely it became. Without Yi Hua knowing, Gabriel's admiration for Yi Hua grew to a higher level.

  Contrary to Gabriel's reaction, after hearing the news that the referee announced that he had won, Rey was not happy and became angry. He looked at Yihua in the audience and said in disbelief: "Brother, what are you
  doing? Are you Don’t you even have the courage to fight me?”
