For a moment, the Shrek group fell into a deeper level of confusion.
No fighting and killing allowed.
A Soul Duel turned into a battle of wits?
"Wait a minute."
Dai Yueheng suddenly asked with a puzzled look:
"You mean to say that because of your Spirit Ability, the Peace Star Arena, our original match has changed from determining victory and defeat through a Soul Duel to determining it through a battle of wits?"
"If we win, can we also ask Captain Dragonfly to punish you?"
Huo Yuhao and his group also looked at Vina with weird expressions.
Vina nodded heavily and said, "That's right, this is my Spirit Ability — Peace Star Arena."
"Heh?"
Dai Yueheng and his group almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
Isn't this practically handing us a free benefit?
Originally, we thought that, like Xu Jiujiu and Xu Tianzhen, you possessed a Spirit Ability so powerful that we couldn't match it.
Turns out your Spirit Ability just turns a Soul Duel into a battle of wits. What kind of use could this possibly have!
Soul Power has its levels, but who would ever admit defeat when it comes to intelligence?
"Um... can we also ask Captain Dragonfly to directly drain the Soul Power of all seven of you?"
Vina nodded and said, "Yes, but the premise is that you can beat me."
"Pfft."
The Shrek group suddenly couldn't hold back their laughter.
Very good, very good!
This is really handing us a free win. After all, changing from the original Soul Duel to a battle of wits doesn't necessarily mean anyone has a clear advantage, right?
It's still uncertain who will emerge victorious.
A weird expression appeared on Vina's face. If she wasn't mistaken, were they mocking her?
Spectator stands.
Xiao Hongchen and his group were completely dumbfounded watching this.
"No way?"
"What is Vina's Spirit Ability trying to do? What's the use of this?"
"It should have directly ruled them as losers and drained their Soul Power—that would be a powerful Spirit Ability! Why is she competing with them fairly instead?"
"I am seriously done for. Can't she just crush them directly like Xu Jiujiu and Princess Tianzhen?"
"Ain't that the truth? Don't give Shrek and the others a chance to win."
Xiao Hongchen and his group were very anxious.
They could afford not to enter the top four.
But!
If they didn't get in, but let Shrek Academy enter instead, that would genuinely feel worse than being killed. After all, their current strength was greater than Shrek's.
Jing Hongchen furrowed his brows: "Something's wrong. There is definitely something wrong here."
"Use your Brains and think about it. If this Spirit Ability gave Vina no advantage and couldn't secure her a guaranteed win, why would she go through all this trouble?"
The expressions of Xiao Hongchen and his group also became complicated.
"Grandpa, but a battle of wits kind of thing is hard to guarantee a steady win, right?"
"That's right, Hall Master, this sort of thing is probably unstable!"
"If we follow these rules, Vina might even lose."
Jing Hongchen shook his head and said:
"Logically speaking, she would lose, but you all ignored a very important issue."
"Shrek Academy, including the opponents Vina will encounter in the future, are all witnessing this arena for the first time."
"And Vina, after creating this arena, has probably competed in battles of wits against hundreds or thousands of people. Under these circumstances, who dares to claim that they can win against Vina when participating in the minigames within the rules for the very first time?"
Hearing this, Everyone's eyes lit up.
That's right!
It really is that reasoning. For others, any competition event is unfamiliar, but for Vina, it might be something she has already experienced and practiced countless times in private.
Therefore, it can be said that inside the battle-of-wits arena that Vina is familiar with, almost no one can defeat her.
Spectator stands.
The spectators at this moment suddenly grew somewhat expectant toward Vina's battle-of-wits arena.
After all, Spirit Masters engaging in a Soul Duel is all the same, but determining victory and defeat through a battle of wits among Spirit Masters is truly a first!
It's so novel.
On the arena.
Vina didn't care at all about the mockery from the Shrek group.
Although she possessed the BrainMartial Soul, this didn't mean she was necessarily smarter than others, but the operating speed of her Brain was definitely the fastest.
"Everyone."
"The game can begin now."
"Jiang Peng, go up and join a student from Shrek to spin the large turntable together."
"Alright."
Jiang Peng, the Spirit Emperor beside Vina, also walked up with a happy look. He was truly full of anticipation for this upcoming effortless victory of a match.
Dai Yueheng also walked forward at this time and said, "Then I'll do it!"
Captain Dragonfly gestured to the two of them with his hand: "Then the two of you spin the large turntable together and start the selection for the first match event!"
Jiang Peng and Dai Yueheng exchanged a glance and spun the large turntable together.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
After the large turntable rotated for a full circle, the final pointer stopped on an event — Arithmetic.
"What?"
Seeing the match event for both sides, Dai Yueheng got a bit of a headache for a moment.
What the hell?
What kind of cursed match is this?
Huo Yuhao and the others were also filled with confusion. What kind of match was this considered!
Wait.
This is a battle of wits, so most of the match events should be similar to this kind of thing?
Huo Yuhao asked in his Sea of Consciousness:
"Brother Tianmeng, your Mental Power is so powerful, you should be good at arithmetic, right?"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was directly dumbfounded as a worm.
"No way?"
"Little Yuhao, what made you produce the misconception that a worm like me would be good at human arithmetic?"
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, and upon careful thought, it made sense.
Although Brother Tianmeng had lived long and had strong Mental Power, an ice-silkworm Soul Beast was indeed not skilled at things like arithmetic.
Captain Dragonfly spoke up at this moment:
"For the first round of the match, both sides will compete in arithmetic. I will pose the questions for Everyone to test your calculation abilities."
"Everyone in both teams can buzz in for the answer at the very first moment. A correct answer gets two points, while a wrong answer deducts one point. The one with the higher final score wins this round of the match."
Dai Yueheng and the others looked at each other with somewhat complicated gazes.
Just now, they felt that Vina's arena Spirit Ability or whatever was really useless.
After all, dragging both sides into a battle of wits didn't give the opponent any advantage either—wasn't this Spirit Ability completely wasted?
Now that the match event was out, they felt extremely headache-inducing.
We Spirit Masters aren't good at this!
Normal Spirit Masters only learn some basic knowledge, and then CultivateSoul Power and hone Spirit Abilities.
Who with a proper mindset would go study arithmetic?
To keep accounts?
Isn't this match event purely torturing people?
Wait.
We aren't good at this, and Vina and her people definitely aren't good at it either, because they are also proper Spirit Masters and couldn't possibly study these unorthodox paths.
Therefore, this round should have no problems.
Jiang Peng and the others from Di'ao Academy couldn't help laughing out loud.
Good grief!
The opponents just handed over a round for free right off the bat?
They were very clear that Princess Vina's Second Martial Soul was none other than the BrainBody Martial Soul, which specialized in things like arithmetic analysis—isn't this purely handing them the win for free?
