Chapter 620: Chapter 196: Celestial Tribulation Returns
The magical girls of Southern China are far more combative than those in other places.
The reason, naturally, is closely tied to the fact that Southern China had once fallen at the hands of the Mirror Country.
The Mirror Country allowed Mirror Beasts to wreak havoc indiscriminately, even intending at one point to annihilate all Southern China personnel and occupy Southern China.
The psychological shadow cast upon Southern China people is far greater than that cast by the Witch Association.
Not just the Mirror Country, various strange disasters always seem to first appear in Southern China before spreading to other regions.
Before the Mirror Country, Southern China was plagued with misfortunes; and even after the Mirror Country, it was never peaceful.
For a long period, Southern China even came to be known as the source of disasters.
At the root, it’s because the space technology of the Mirror Country was disclosed to other remnants of the Old World.
This caused many in the Old World to want to seize the source of the New World, with Southern China being the first place to descend upon.
Thus, so many disturbances arose.
It’s not an exaggeration to say the Southern China people are determined to fight against the Mirror Country to the death.
And precisely because they are constantly on guard against the resurgence of the Mirror Country, in combating the Witch Association and other Old World ghosts, most Southern China magical girls begin participating in various duels, even battles, as soon as they become magical girls.
It’s not an exaggeration to say that any famous magical girl has been through countless battles.
Once, during the Beihai Jiang Ming campaign in North China, together they fought against two A-level Disaster Beasts, eight B-level Disaster Beasts, and countless C-level and below Disaster Beasts, resisting two Witch Association regional heads whose trouble levels far exceeded A-levels, and totaled forty-eight consecutive hours of battle—the magical girl Cyan Simurgh.
She is a standout among Southern China magical girls who can handle things alone—ranked tenth on the South China Disaster Strategy Bureau Disaster Beast Subjugation List and tenth on the Disaster Strategy Bureau Disaster Beast Subjugation List!
Countless competitions and duels take place here, so even those magical girls who haven’t joined the official Disaster Strategy Bureau have considerable battle experience.
Once the fearless local custom formed, nowadays, whether there are competitions or enemies from the Witch Association or not, Southern China magical girls will start a bout just to pass the time.
As a result, there’s a famously widespread tradition in Southern China.
When eyes meet, a fight begins!
When Keke’s group arrived, they bumped into a Disaster Strategy Bureau magical girl and immediately started a fight.
Although it ended with Susan intervening and finishing it, the opponent’s fighting spirit was vigorous, and her technique wasn’t lacking.
It was evident she was seasoned, though her realm was slightly low, only at the New Seedlings level.
Hence Keke was extremely cautious from the beginning.
Although she had Teacher Zi Yuan’s personal guidance, granting her an exceptional advantage compared to other magical girls, she absolutely couldn’t underestimate others.
After waving to greet her older brother, she lined up to enter the competition venue.
Then someone tugged at her clothes from behind.
"Keke, Miss Keke?"
Keke turned her head to look, seeing that it was a girl in a costume resembling a panda pulling at her, her head adorned with a panda head, concealing her appearance. "My name is Huanhuan, want to form a team?"
"I already have teammates."
"You saw it too; upon entry, the teams are scattered, so magical girls must find their previous teammates themselves. We can team up temporarily before we find our team."
That Panda Girl then vigorously performed a set of military body punches, "I’m very strong!"
Keke couldn’t help but hold her forehead, "Not necessary."
After registering, one must generally maintain the transformed state. Keke wondered how a magical girl could turn her magic armor into such a costume...
No matter how she looked at it, it appeared unreliable.
"Also, how do you know my name?"
"If you are willing to form a team with me, I’ll tell you."
Keke glanced around but couldn’t find Yiyi or Senior Susan due to the scattered teammates. "Temporary team."
"Okay." That Panda Girl giggled, the expression on the panda head changed as well, "The magical girls of the South China Disaster Strategy Bureau all know about you! They’ve cultivated the legendary Cyan Cloud Sect and magical girl Zi Yuan’s Disaster Strategy Bureau, Beihai Disaster Strategy Bureau. Everyone’s curious about your prowess."
"Therefore, before you arrived, the Southern China Disaster Strategy Bureau magical girls sifted through all internal information concerning Beihai, and many awaited to see your performance."
Panda Girl spoke and pointed to the audience seats, "See over there? More than twenty, all magical girls from our Disaster Strategy Bureau, came to watch you."
"..."
Keke instantly felt immense pressure.
Though said to be watching them, these people are genuinely eager to see the true strength of magical girls related to the Cyan Cloud Sect, right?
Keke knew about the increased influence of the Cyan Cloud Sect recently.
Simultaneously expanding towards South China, West China, and North China, each area’s Disaster Strategy Bureau received a notice to abandon confronting policies, instead assisting Cyan Cloud Sect’s expansion.
Notable participants from Southern China had engaged in the Heart Image Remains resolution activities before, thus, were more aware of the Cyan Cloud Sect.
Presumably thinking Beihai Disaster Strategy Bureau cultivated Cyan Cloud Sect, yet later deemed as an appendage to the Cyan Cloud Sect, they assumed their prowess somewhat represented Cyan Cloud Sect’s standard, hence the curiosity and expectations.
Thinking this, Keke took a deep breath.
Mustn’t disgrace Teacher Zi Yuan!
"But Keke, how formidable is the legendary magical girl Zi Yuan?"
Keke smiled slightly: "Teacher Zi Yuan is the strongest!"
"Wow, really want to witness it..."
The level here doesn’t warrant Teacher Zi Yuan making a move. You likely won’t see her.
