Imperial Summoner University, inside a certain classroom.
A cube-shaped pod filled with a sense of high-tech black magic sat in the center of the classroom.
A young man with bronze skin sat in front of the pod.
The young man’s attire was slightly different from that of ordinary students; a piece of cloth with beast skin patterns had been deliberately sewn onto the left shoulder of his clothing, and despite being a male, he wore a pair of silver earrings.
His na was Ah Yajun, and he ca from a minority ethnicity.
However, the concept of minority ethnicity was completely different from the pre-new era concept.
The reason Ah Yajun’s people beca a minority was because they all had magical beast bloodline.
The source of the bloodline was that their ancestors had once united with an A’ya Beast at the dawn of the new era.
Since then, A’ya beca the surna of that ethnicity.
After several generations, as a branch mber, Ah Yajun’s appearance no longer showed any traits of magical beasts.
Nonetheless, nearly 10% of A’ya Beast bloodline made him the highest concentration among the new generation, earning him a relatively high status within the ethnic group.
But here, he was just an ordinary freshman.
A freshman of the lifestyle class, majoring in cube cards.
At this mont, Ah Yajun’s expression was sowhat solemn, as he was waiting.
Waiting for his horoom teacher to arrive.
According to the teacher’s schedule, today was the day for him to play his last ranking match.
Unlike those card players who finish all their ranking matches in one go, as cube card majors, they took this matter more seriously.
After each match, the horoom teacher would review and explain.
Treating this process as a part of class teaching.
Students would deepen their understanding of cube cards through reflection, drawing conclusions, and offline card battles during this process.
Ah Yajun was the earliest to participate and also the fastest in progress among all the students in the class.
A record of 7 wins and 2 losses placed him at the top of the current cube card major.
However, the version update made him sowhat uneasy as a newcor card player.
Even though he had just discussed with the teacher after last night’s update, he still felt unsure.
After a while, a middle-aged man walked into the classroom.
He was Ah Yajun’s horoom teacher, who had just returned from a eting.
A version update might not be considered a big deal by others, but it was a major event causing an earthquake-like sensation in the entire card community.
Therefore, the cube card teachers at Imperial University held overnight etings, discussing and practicing many matters.
"Hello, teacher."
Seeing the horoom teacher arrive, Ah Yajun hurriedly stood up.
"Mm."
The horoom teacher nodded.
Although he was a bit tired from the all-night eting, he still looked kindly at Ah Yajun.
There was even a hint of envy.
Because the horoom teacher believed that this student was truly a chosen card player.
Having cube card talent skills before the version update didn’t an much. After an update, all were canceled.
But the student before him retained his cube card talent through an alternative way.
Regarding this event, Ah Yajun himself was equally surprised.
When the light orb erged, he accidentally touched it.
The result was that he discovered he could acquire this light orb.
It’s known that before this, Ah Yajun had tried absorbing skill orbs.
The result was, unsurprisingly, a failure. After consulting the elders in his ethnicity, he was told his bloodline concentration was insufficient, thus unable to acquire them.
But it seed this cube card orb required low qualifications from the acquirer with his re 10% concentration being enough.
"Are you ready?"
At this mont, the horoom teacher asked.
"I’m ready, teacher."
Ah Yajun was quite confident.
He hadn’t rested much last night, grabbing classmates to practice thoroughly.
Now he was quite familiar with the rules and operations after version update.
"Alright, then let’s start."
The horoom teacher opened the pod door.
re ranking match, he wouldn’t follow into the cube card world, standing outside and waiting for good news.
And he was quite confident in his student, the current 7/9 win rate says it all.
If this last match is won, setting him at Gold 5 was highly likely.
It’s known for newcor card players, Gold 5 was already a comndable rank.
Generally, during the student phase, the cube card major’s average rank would reach Gold 5 around the second year.
Which ans if Ah Yajun achieved Gold 5 now, it would be equivalent to being a year ahead of other classmates in the major.
"Okay, teacher."
Ah Yajun nodded, lay into the pod.
Consciousness withdrew, entering the pure white space.
He walked to the touch screen, took a deep breath, and clicked the ranked match icon.
Buzz...
After a sensation of weightlessness, Ah Yajun appeared in the card room.
The first thing upon entering the room was greeting the opponent, as teachers taught card table etiquette.
"Greetings to a humble man like ."
Reading the opponent’s ID, he greeted.
"Hello, Mr. Yajun."
Li Pu nodded in response.
After greeting, they received a series of notification ssages.
[Brother Spare entered spectator mode]
[Snowflake Friends entered spectator mode]
[Floating Haha entered spectator mode]
[Steak Can’t Array entered spectator mode]
[Heaven and Earth Sentintal Guy 021 entered spectator mode]
[Little Raccoon Instant Noodles entered spectator mode]
This did not surprise Li Pu at all.
After eight placent matches, his followers grew to six.
It must be said, an eight consecutive wins in ranking was indeed sowhat attractive.
He guessed those present wanted to see how many wins he’d ultimately get.
This could be seen from Brother Spare ’s tone, slowly shifting from hostile to neutral.
Moreover, these spectators followed the rules, purely watching and comnting without prematurely revealing his deck information.
As for Li Pu himself, he benefited greatly from these seven matches, excluding one due to opponent disconnection.
Growth in skill strength at the novice phase was often quick.
But he also noticed a phenonon: the later the opponent, the stronger they were.
Even in the previous match, he almost faced a major setback.
Hence Li Pu knew the opponent before him would certainly be stronger than the last.
He must give his all and handle cautiously.
After greetings, it was card setup ti.
Both sides were well-prepared before, so setting up cards took little ti.
With cards set, the match officially began.
