Outside the arena, all the spectators were completely dumbfounded by the scene before them.
Everyone was originally waiting to see how the students from Sea City would fight against the Spritelife Group.
The result was...
"It seems like they fought, yet it also seems like they didn’t."
A student from Capital Metropolitan whispered.
After all, Scarlett Jennings had used a talisman.
But the opposing side practically did nothing and just got chased away one by one by that Demon Energy Sky Burning Talisman.
This "competition" ended really unexpectedly.
Compared to the students’ amazement, the senior professors were more intrigued by Scarlett Jennings’ talisman.
Even though it sounded like a chaotic rune, integrating demon energy into a rune was something they were seeing for the first time.
Professors specializing in Talismanic Magic found their minds opened, even feeling tempted to catch a demon on the spot to extract some demon energy for an experiment.
Also curious about this was Cassian Wolf, who was watching the broadcast on the Spiritual Affairs APP.
"This is somewhat refreshing."
It’s a pity, though.
He had specially tampered with the Ghost Bottle just to see her true "strength."
The so-called evil ghost turned out to be negligible.
Even Callum Yuan couldn’t face it head-on.
"Tsk," Cassian Wolf uttered with some disinterest, raising his hand to shut off the broadcast in front of him.
On the other side, watching as the two teams from the first match ran downstairs in confusion, everyone was perplexed.
"Both teams ran away, Sea City’s side took two Ghost Bottles, how does this count?"
Though failing the first round wouldn’t lead to disqualification from the grand competition later on, it would affect the progression of the second match.
The seniors were frustrated until someone pointed out the ongoing broadcast from Sea City’s side,
"Oh! Oh!"
The crowd took a closer look.
The yellow gas in that corridor was finally dissipating slowly.
Violet Allen, who was originally teary-eyed trying to force her way into the barrier, cautiously returned to her body when she saw this.
Her soul once again attached to her body, and upon opening her eyes, Violet Allen cried again.
On the other side, Ashton Todd and his group, who intended to remove the barrier, halted their actions on seeing this, asking nervously,
"What’s wrong?! Is the smell still there?!"
Violet Allen shook her head at the inquiry, "No, it’s gone."
As she spoke, her mouth quivered and she began to cry,
"But I think my body seems to have been smoked stink!!
Ah, I’m sorry to my body! I shouldn’t have abandoned you earlier, sob, sob..."
Violet Allen sobbed and miserably hugged her aching body.
Sea City’s six members were speechless.
They removed the barrier and walked over to Violet Allen.
"Stop crying."
Violet didn’t listen and continued to hug herself mournfully, "I’m smelly..."
Scarlett Jennings, somewhat amused, suddenly reached a hand over with something,
"Stop wailing, here, take this."
"What..."
Violet turned her teary eyes towards the Ghost Bottle handed to her and fell silent instantly, springing up from the ground.
"Is, is this really for me?! How can I take this?!"
She said this, her hands unhesitatingly snatching the Ghost Bottle from Scarlett Jennings, forgetting all about her body being reeky.
Her face lit up with joy as she asked again,
"Is it really just for me?"
"Yes, it’s for you."
Ashton Todd and the others had no objections to Scarlett Jennings’ decision, waving it off as Violet was the only one left in the building.
Though Cedric Wilder was irritating with his sharp tongue, Violet Allen was quite alright.
The main thing was, they disliked the attitude of those few little demons.
Only the North City team was left now.
They couldn’t look domineering as Sea City’s students and end up with it themselves, which would make people think they were tyrants~
Violet Allen was now genuinely embarrassed.
"Um... I feel like I benefitted, maybe you should report Cedric Wilder, otherwise I won’t feel comfortable accepting this."
Sea City’s six members: ...
Cedric Wilder who had already run downstairs: ???
