IUD-CHAPTER 316 PAY ATTENTION

Julis-Alexia Vas Riessfeld.

To some extent, this young girl was more famous than Sylvia.

The reason was simple: she was a legitimate princess.

Ever since Invertia's arrival, the world's landscape has undergone significant changes. Aside from the weakening of traditional nation-states, which were gradually being replaced by the Integrated Enterprise Foundation, some regions in Europe, under the control of the Integrated Enterprise Foundation, had reverted to a monarchy.

Among them was the Lieseltania Kingdom.

And Julis-Alexia Riessfeld, the "Glühen Rose," was the first Imperial Princess of this Kingdom, a true royal princess.

So, in a certain sense, this Strega (Witch) was even more renowned than the rare Divas.

Of course, this didn't hold much significance for Fang Li, so he didn't dwell on it.

However, he was still somewhat surprised.

In the original story, this Princess didn't team up with Toudou Kirin; she had a different partner. But here, Toudou Kirin had become her partner for the "Phoenix Festa," which was quite unexpected.

"Could it be because of me?" Fang Li thought as he raised this question in his mind.

And just as this idea began to take shape in Fang Li's mind, Zhao Hufeng confirmed his suspicion.

"Because of your duel and victory over 'Shippuu Jinrai,' which led to her uncle's failed succession plan and her abandonment, this first-place-ranked student of Seidoukan Academy seemed to have gone through a period of considerable turmoil and confusion," Zhao Hufeng explained. "And that's when the 'Glühen Rose' made her appearance."

According to the information gathered by the Student Council, the Imperial Princess had apparently learned about Toudou Kirin's situation by chance and approached her, inviting her to participate in the "Phoenix Festa."

As a result, this partnership came into being.

"By chance?" Fang Li couldn't help but ponder this. He chuckled and said, "I really hope it was just a coincidence."

The reason the Imperial Princess knew about Toudou Kirin's situation was likely because of Claudia, right?

After all, Claudia was indirectly, or even directly, responsible for Toudou Kirin's current circumstances, having arranged the duel between Toudou Kirin and Fang Li.

And Claudia was the Student Council President of Seidoukan Academy, who couldn't just stand idly by and watch a student with such potential and strength as Toudou Kirin lose her way.

So, it was highly likely that Claudia had orchestrated this to some extent, ultimately leading to the partnership between Julis and Toudou Kirin.

"Regardless, Toudou Kirin is indeed a formidable opponent," Zhao Hufeng emphasized. "In this edition of the 'Phoenix Festa,' she's the only first-place-ranked participant from Seidoukan Academy, and her partner is the 'Glühen Rose.' You must be cautious."

Upon hearing this, before the others could react, Cecily smiled.

"I think this is a great opportunity," Cecily clenched her fists, her enthusiasm burning as she spoke. "I've been wanting to test my skills against a top-tier Strega (Witch) like 'Glühen Rose' for a long time."

In the eyes of those from the Water Faction, just like Daoshi in the Water Faction and fist fighters in the Wood Faction were seen as individuals with lower natural talent, the technique of Seisenjutsu, which allowed some Genestellars to gain abilities similar to Strega (Witch) and Dante (Magus), was considered inferior to the innate inborn abilities of Strega (Witch) and Dante (Magus).

In such a situation, as the leader of the Water Faction, Cecily had always wanted to compete with these powerful Strega (Witches) to prove the power of Seisenjutsu.

Now, Julis's appearance seemed to have ignited Cecily's fighting spirit, and the leader of the Water Faction was filled with excitement.

"I also want to have a match with 'Shippuu Jinrai' and see how strong the Toudou Style Sword Technique, which even Master praises, truly is," Zhao Hufeng added, eager to test his skills. "If I have the chance, I absolutely will seek her teachings."

Julis-Alexia Riessfeld.

Both Cecily and Zhao Hufeng, at their core, had the nature of martial artists.

Facing the performance of their two disciples, Fang Li's master, Fan Xinglou, could only laugh, while the Li siblings seemed somewhat indifferent.

For this brother and sister duo who delighted in toying with their opponents, the pursuit of formidable adversaries was something they couldn't fathom. They believed that targeting the weaknesses of their opponents was the best way to secure victory.

As for Fang Li, while others were immersed in their own thoughts, he had already opened the information on another team and was looking at one of its members.

It was a male student wearing Seidoukan Academy's high school uniform. His expression appeared relaxed and he gave off a somewhat goofy vibe.

Cecily leaned over to take a look, then raised a question.

"Who is this person?"

Cecily's question drew everyone's attention to the Space Screen in front of Fang Li.

Staring at the image displayed on the Space Screen, everyone had simultaneous expressions of doubt.

"What's going on?" Even Fan Xinglou appeared somewhat uncertain and asked directly, "Do you know this person?"

"Should I say I know him?" Fang Li didn't shift his gaze and continued to look at the person. He smiled and said, "I can only say that this is an opponent worth noting."

"An opponent worth noting?" Everyone was momentarily stunned.

Zhao Hufeng even opened the profile information and, with increasing bewilderment, said, "This person seems to be a first-year student in Seidoukan Academy's high school section. Not to mention his rank, he has never participated in any duels since entering Seidoukan, so his record is zero."

Hearing this, the Li siblings couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Outside the rankings?" Li Shenyun said in a highly ironic tone, "We need to be cautious of an opponent like this?"

"A zero record?" Li Shenhua, in an almost identical tone, said with a smirk, "A student who hasn't even participated in a single duel; we should be cautious of such an opponent?"

Suddenly, the mocking laughter of the siblings resounded simultaneously, causing Zhao Hufeng to furrow his brow.

Only Fang Li glanced at the siblings and said indifferently, "I am also outside the rankings. I haven't participated in a single duel since entering Jie Long Seventh Institute, so if the two Senior Brothers and Senior Sister happen to encounter me in the competition, you will surely consider me an opponent not worth noting."

The siblings' laughter abruptly ceased.

"Oh?" Fan Xinglou, filled with interest, said, "In other words, this person is quite strong?"

"Somewhat," Fang Li said, "At the very least, he should be more challenging than Toudou Kirin."

"Seidoukan has someone like this too?" Fan Xinglou immediately turned her head and looked at Zhao Hufeng, curious. She asked, "Hufeng, what's this person's name?"

It was Fang Li who answered that question, not Zhao Hufeng.

"He is called Amagiri Ayato."

"A deeply hidden, never revealed Sword Master."
