The next day.

The academy disclosed the format of this year’s competition between the two districts early in the morning.

Allowing all participants in the competition a day’s preparation time.

Link took out his personal Al to check, somewhat surprised.

This year, the academy injected a new twist into the competition involving elements of exploration, survival, treasure hunting, and camp confrontation, creating a new format named “Pioneering the Different World”.

The name is direct and straightforward, but the scope was grand.

The academy has set aside several small worlds on the brink of destruction as the battlegrounds for the competition.

The competitors, whether from the Southern Region Storm Sea New Blood or from the local apprentices in the North District, would face some difficult choices after entering the small world.

Then, the Al monitoring the entire process of the competition would categorize the participants into camps based on the general tendencies of their choices.

The Alpha Camp’s main task is to save the small world on the brink of destruction, and the Beta Camp’s main task is to completely destroy the small world.

Members of the same camp can cooperate but must not attack each other.

Those in different camps can attack freely, with unrestricted carnage.

The academy has special measures to transport participants out of the small world the moment they are about to be killed.

With the academy’s strength in medical care, as long as the soul hasn’t dissipated, they can be revived, even if they have lost signs of life.

Almost no competitors have truly died in the competitions over the years.

Almost!

Around the main task, the academy also set up some side tasks.

Here again is a test and a choice.

If the main task fails, no matter how many side tasks are completed, it is all in vain.

If the main task is successful, and the camp’s victory is obtained, it will be the “reward according to merits” stage.

At this point, those who have completed more side tasks naturally rank higher.

The academy only disclosed a rough outline, not all the rules, yet it contains so much information.

After reading it, Link felt the situation was very serious.

Whether from his personal interests or the betting agreement with Wizard Palo, this year’s competition format is highly unfavorable for the Southern District.

The Southern District has too few participants and there are conflicts internally. They can’t unite sincerely, and it is extremely difficult to achieve the final victory in this camp confrontation competition.

What Link could see, Wizard Palo naturally could as well.

Shortly after, another summon was sent out.

The venue for this call was set at the New Blood Mutual Aid Association.

If it wasn’t for the fear of rejection, Link really didn’t want to go.

Ten minutes later.

The New Blood Mutual Aid Association.

All competitors related to the betting agreement with Wizard Palo, from the first to the fourth year, are all present.

Without waiting for long, Wizard Palo, Serene Wizard, Wizard Cody, Lokan Wizard, and Witch Ayla walked in.

They arrived commanding the wind, demonstrating a strong aura, looking solemn and imposing.

The competitors, originally scattered into small circles, immediately lined up in four rows by grade and height on their own initiative.

“You’ve all seen the format of the competition. How do you feel about it? Do you have confidence?”

Wizard Palo looked around at everyone and asked lightly.

At this time, Link kept his silence.

In terms of status, he was not considered a core or main force. The members of the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” were.

Disappointingly, not a single member of the New Blood Mutual Aid Association stepped forward to express their stance, particularly the fourth-year members.

As seniors, they should set a good example for their juniors.

But Antoine Hilton, for his successful re-election, sidelined those who had the ability and responsibility, one by one.

A poor steed doesn’t come back to feed on old pasture.

Even with Witch Ayla stepping in and raising the banner of Wizard Palo again, there were still very few who chose to return to the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association”.

Those few fourth-year New Blood who returned to the New Blood Mutual Aid Association had their confidence depleted in the struggle with Antoine Hilton and didn’t dare to step up.

It was unclear what Robin Grayam and Eugene Delarosa, who originally intended to run for the president from the third year, were thinking. They were hiding in the team.

The atmosphere became awkward.

Lanny Taylor, who wore a veil over her face and had not taken it off even when she was called on her own by Wizard Palo, broke the silence.

She took a step forward, standing out from everyone else, her voice as clear as a nightingale, declaring firmly: “I’ll do my best to win first place!”

If you don’t do it, be the best at what you do.

Since Lanney Taylor had chosen to join the New Blood Mutual Aid Association, she would not be content to be an ordinary member.

The upgrade route to core member, vice president, and president was somewhat long and time-consuming.

There was a chance to skip steps and directly become the president, and Lanney Taylor naturally wanted to seize it.

As for how to command, as a lower-grade one, the higher-grade people after becoming president, there was no difficulty.

The senior members are third-class wizard apprentices, and she will also be a third-class wizard apprentice by then!

There is no disparity, whether in terms of level or strength.

Without the disparities in level and strength, naturally, there would be no other problems.

“Good.”

The look on Wizard Palo’s face improved somewhat, “I hope you can do what you say.”

“Definitely, and certainly!”

Lanney Taylor continued to declare, pledging unwaveringly, leaving no room for doubt.

Wizard Palo nodded, quite satisfied with Lanny Taylor’s mental state.

Lanny Taylor had good judgment and didn’t linger alone, promptly retreating back into the first-year team.

“Next, Wizards Cody, Serene, Lokan, and Witch Ayla will share their experiences of pioneering the different world with you.”

Wizard Palo nonchalantly issued an order, then left the scene to his companions to take over.

The first-year newbloods were assigned to Witch Ayla, the second-year ones to Lokan Wizard, the third-year to Serene Wizard, and the fourth-year to Wizard Cody.

The four grades were separated, each going to different places to learn about exploring the Different World.

Link was very interested in this aspect.

Witch Ayla started from the definition of exploring the Different World, with rich content and many details.

She also interspersed some of her personal experiences and insights, addressing common difficulties, common strategies, and tactics in exploring the Different World, explaining them in a very accessible and to-the-point manner.

After listening, Link felt that he had filled in a missing piece of knowledge.

This was information that couldn’t be found in the Advanced Literature Library or on the “Academic Points” exchange page.

If the two major competitions hadn’t been in the form of exploring the Different World this time, if one wanted to access this kind of information, they would only have the chance to do so during the “internship” year before going on to the Senior Division after graduating from the Junior Division.

“In the process of exploring, the danger of acting alone is much higher than that of team actions.”

In conclusion, Witch Ayla said, “So, after entering the Different World, the most important thing is always to secure your safety first and then find your companions as soon as possible.” 𝑓𝓻ℯ𝑒𝑤𝘦𝑏𝑛ℴ𝓋ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝓸𝓂

Link felt this to be very true and kept these words firmly in mind.

While Wizard Palo was taking action, Peter Lionel was not falling behind.

This bet was a compromise that they had to take under the pressure from the old guys at the academy.

Both of them got some benefits.

“Pure Blood Volition” members have a higher overall quality than “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” members, which is an indisputable fact.

Over the years, the performances in the two-district annual competitions, “Pure Blood Volition” had always been much better than the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association”, which was also an indisputable fact.

This was why, despite knowing this, Wizard Palo agreed to bet with Peter Lionel based on the performance in the two-district competition.

The agreement was that if any competitor belonging to Wizard Palo could take the first place in any grade, it would be considered a win for Wizard Palo.

And for those associated with Peter Lionel, Wizard Lionel didn’t demand first place, only that the results from all four grades were better than the opponents, then it would count as a win.

Therefore, it was not yet time for Peter Lionel to rest on his laurels.

Accompanied by Zoran Archie and Henry Percival, he arrived at the Northern District “Pure Blood Volition” headquarters.

There were too many competitors from “Pure Blood Volition”, Peter Lionel did not have the leisure to meet with each one, so he only notified the current president and four vice presidents.

“How are the preparations going?”

Peter Lionel asked Tiffany Colonna in a friendly manner.

She was his old friend’s daughter, his niece, one of his own, definitely not someone who could be casually ordered around.

His attitude had to be good.

Tiffany Colonna replied seriously, “Everything else is fine, everyone has been notified, the only problem is, we are not certain whether the method of breaking the academy’s restrictions, which we used in the past, can still be used.”

The so-called method of breaking the academy’s restrictions was to delay the connection between the soul and the body, allowing the academy to first move a dead body out, then the soul.

To save a person who has already died, a lot of resources are needed, and the Great Sage has to be asked to make a move.

Generally speaking, the academy would not spend such a high cost on a wizard apprentice.

In this way, the person is really killed!

For the killer, there would be punishments from the academy, and the punishments would be quite severe.

However, as long as the killer was not executed, everything would be worth it.

The academy has no death penalty, so the person behind the scenes just has to bleed some money, pay a fee, and the matter would be settled!

Peter Lionel felt that Tiffany Colonna’s concern needed serious attention.

He turned his head to Henry Percival, an expert in soul witchcraft, and asked, “Henry, can you check on this aspect?”

“No problem.”

Henry Percival readily agreed, “It’s a matter of a little improvement.”

“Then we’ll trouble you with this, Henry.”

Having resolved the issue, Peter Lionel turned his head to his close partner and asked, “Zoran, do you want to say something?”

“Okay.”

Zoran Archie stepped out from a position one step behind Peter Lionel’s side and stood in front of Tiffany Colonna, Hawk Lucia, Henry Johnson, Merck Percival, and Bobby Smith.

With a stern expression, no emotion on his face, and a serious tone, he said, “For this two-district competition, you all understand our ‘Pure Blood Volition’s’ target, so I won’t dwell on it much.

I just want to say two things:

One is that the manifestation of pure blood will is to constantly gain honour!

Two is that the manifestation of pure blood will is to brutally suppress the enemy!”

After a pause, Zoran Archie’s tone became chilling, “There is no enemy in front of us!”

“There is no enemy in front of us!”

On hearing this, Tiffany Colonna and the others became emotional, their necks turning red, their voices hoarse from shouting the slogan.

The short slogan, like an injection of chicken blood, instantly elevated their morale.

Zoran Archie was very pleased with their performance.

With such high morale from “Pure Blood Volition” and its superior overall quality, why worry about its prosperity?

The “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” would still be crushed instantly as they were in the past years, just like hens and dogs.

The general outcome of this is already set!

At this time, Zoran Archie specifically looked at Hawk Lucia.

He didn’t say anything, but the meaning was obvious.

You better not screw up, you said you were going to kill that Link Grande during the competition, so you better do that.

Hawk Lucia understood and nodded vigorously, full of confidence.

These two months, he was not idling, he had already made very comprehensive arrangements.

Just to avoid being nagged by those old fools in the academy.

Once Wizard Palo’s group and Peter Lionel’s group had finished their important tasks, they quickly left the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” and “Pure Blood Volition” headquarters.

Let the apprentices handle their own matters.

If the two Tier 3 wizards kept interfering, what would that look like?

Right?
