Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva-Chapter 641 - 273: Ying in the Finals_2

Then came the battle with the top genius, who, although superior in swordsmanship and strength to Wei Ke, still struggled against the elusive Silver Mirror Maiden and eventually had to concede the Red Marrow Crystal that was nearly within grasp, retreating to seek other opponents.

In this competition, Wei Ke clinched the first-place result, prompting the live audience to gasp and cheer in amazement.

"Our student Wei Ke from the faraway Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain has used a secret technique that's both incredibly elusive and mysterious. Even I am learning about it for the first time, and I've come to understand this school of thought after urgently supplementing my knowledge," the host said in their post-match commentary, piquing the curiosity of the audience.

"'Silver Mirror Killer' Wei Ke is actually a student of the 'Witch Sect,' a faction that may not be well-known to all today but that also had a period of unmatched glory. The secret techniques of this sect are all modeled after the famous witches of history," the host explained, sparking interest in the 'Witch Sect' amongst many.

The intermission ended, and the fifth battle began.

This time, Tilan didn't appear, but the girl named Shaliye was on stage.

Her Invisibility Flash Swordsmanship, once again exhibited its formidable power in the competition, easily defeating numerous contenders who were otherwise superior in overall strength, unable to withstand even a few rounds of her attacks.

After the match, Shaliye secured the first place, eliciting gasps and aspirations from the audience.

"What a special girl, she seems so polite and endearing."

"And the rose wrapped around the hilt of the Cross Sword is particularly pretty," they commented as the crowd discussed among themselves.

The sixth match began, featuring a unique genius whose swordsmanship, or rather, the advanced application of Aijeika formulas, created Prism Light that locked opponents in a cage-like structure before effortlessly defeating them with his sword.

"'Grating Seal' Trebine, the brilliant young star from Sextant Star Domain, grew up in a space station and is especially adept at calculating Aijeika formulas, using various special secret techniques to seal his opponents' attacks and easily win," the host introduced this style before giving their commentary.

In the seventh match, a mermaid girl utilizing Dual Swords took first place, almost completely overpowering the others, to everyone's astonishment.

In the final first round match, the eighth battle, Tilan finally made her appearance, arranged last as if to be the climax of the show.

"Our beloved and welcomed Sword Princess of the Book, or should we say 'Purple Lightning Sword Princess' Dantalion, is back on stage. What kind of surprise will she bring us this time?" the host announced before the competition officially started.

Holding her Sword, Tilan stepped lightly onto the sloping, rotating grand clock face, as if tilting the heavens themselves, countless spectators shaking their glow sticks, their noisy excitement breaking through the stillness of space.

On the majestic clock face, competitors dressed distinctively entered the scene one after another. Some were unknown and silent, others basked in cheerful anticipation from the crowd. This was a grand stage that spanned the Star Domain, the shining moment countless people dream of. Just making it to the finals was a lifelong dream and a bragging right for many.

Envy, aspiration, jealousy, admiration, excitement—all these emotions boiled over, merging into the grand melting pot of the venue. Being in the midst of it, as countless lights shone upon them and every little detail was amplified, the stage was enough to dizzy those of weaker wills, as if plummeting into a dream.

But the sonorous tolling from within the clock broke the silence and snapped those who were entranced and distracted back to reality.

"The competition begins!"

After the announcement, the competitors each lunged at their targets—some eagerly aiming to defeat their opponents for points, others trying to disassemble the mechanical constructs to retrieve the precious gems within, and some positioning themselves on the hands of the clock, gathering Magic Power to prepare powerful Moves.

"Yin Snow Secret Realm: Ten Directions Wind Arrival!" a youth dressed in Eastern style softly chanted as frost formed beneath his feet, firmly anchoring him to the ground and allowing him to better leverage the ice. The frost simultaneously spread outward, creating intricate patterns on the bronze clock face.

"Dove Feather Night Kill: Double Edge through the Moon!"

Another competitor dressed in black leaped high into the air, utilizing the low gravity to avoid the icy sword wind from the youth below. Then, with a sudden turnaround, Dual Sword Auras intertwined in a Strangulation attack, plunging toward the young man defending his position below.

Back and forth they clashed on the clock face, the threat of death looming, making other competitors hesitant to approach, instead opting to pick up the Red Marrow Crystals from the mechanical constructs to accumulate points.

The Cold Ice sword wind slashed with sharpness, easily dodging the complex structures on the clock face, captivating the onlookers. In the successive exchanges, the competitor in black started to fall behind, and soon found himself dodging through the cavities of the clock face into its hollow interior, slipping to the back of the clock.

In contrast to the front, there were few constructs on the back of the clock, and the gravity generation device was right above the clock face. Passing through the central area, he was subjected to opposing forces, swinging back and forth like a pendulum.

After evading the attack, the competitor in black took advantage of this mechanism, timing his movements with the rotation of the clock to launch a surprise attack on the opponent on the other side.

Clothes fluttered, sword lights crossed, and as the two contestants were locked in combat, Tilan moved with graceful steps among the mechanical constructs, curiously dismantling them and retrieving the true red transparent gems inside.
