In the next few days, Ray kept his routine as usual.

  Attending school, played with his girls, dinner with his parents. But this time, other than chatting and going on a date with Mira, he also adds Greta to the schedule.

  The shota Ray and Greta's plan somehow went very smoothly. With Ethan still focused on stealing Yuu, Mira and Greta had slowly alienated from him and became Ray's woman.

  All of this only needed a big blow to eventually crushed Ethan's ship, and Ray had planned that moment where Ethan would kiss Yuu out of his own will in front of the girls.

  Other than that, Ray also sometimes attend the girl's preliminary. Even though the girls said it wasn't needed, he still wanted to be there to provide some moral support.

  However, when he got to the preliminary venues, he then realized why the girls said so.

  The girl's team rotation was decided according to their mood, and they were unbeatable even with that.

  The girl's battle didn't have any strategy, only pure power, and moreover, only one move was needed to solve the enemy.

  Like if it was Emi, she summoned the five-headed snake and quickly used the five-color beam to force the enemy to surrender.

  Well, to make it worse, Emi is the kinder one amongst the girls, and the worst one was Rena with Alice's bomb.

  During the start of the battle, Alice instructed Alice to jump high into the air, and from that moment.

  " The world shall know pain!"

  KABOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!!!

  Ray couldn't even describe his reaction when he saw that scene for the first time. The horror, the desperation in the enemy's face, added with how Rena maniacally laughs in front of them, had made Ray shivered.

  Soon, the preliminary has got into the last part. The more than 5000 teams in Maple-Leaf city had been decreased into 100, and it would only need two more battles to turn it into 25 teams, all of which would go into the main competition.

  Today, Ray was not going to watch the preliminary of the girls anymore. He had told them that he was already satisfied with their power and would expect more in the main tournament. And currently, his focus is on Greta.

  Mira only needed a single more push, Celine is a spoiled rich girl and without even Ray's intervention, if she saw a more talented person than Ethan, her love for Ethan would waver. Thus, he placed all his energy on Greta.

  Last night, he had messaged Greta that shota Ray would come to watch her battle and cheer her up.

  Still, it seems the presence of Shota Ray only placed more burden on Greta.

  In today's battle, she looked a lot more stressed, and there were few amateur mistakes that she had made during the fight.

  " Pampioreo, use Creamsword and end the enemy!"

  " Wait, Greta, don't go!"

  Because Shota Ray was watching, Greta was pressured to look cool, which led to a mistake in overestimating her capabilities.

  The pampioreo Creamsword attack was easily avoided by her enemy, and with a single move, the Pampioreo has been pinned down, leading to its knockout.

  " Eh… no way."

  " Greta! What the hell are you doing! *Sigh* Just stay down for now. Let me and Mira handle this battle." Celine screamed at Greta, but unbeknownst to her, this scream would later leave a deep mark on Greta.

  The battle continued, but this time was two on three, with Mira's golem still as tanky as ever.

  Still, Mira's golem toughness really couldn't be underestimated. The enemies had tried their best to broke Mira's golem defense, but all of it only left a small scratch on her golem.

  With the tackiness of Mira's golem, the girls soon get their momentum back, and when eventually the enemies were a bit tired of attacking the golem, Celine took the initiative.

  " Nine-tailed fox, moon beam!"

  The Nine-tailed fox jumped high into the air, and from behind it, a crescent-shaped moon appeared. Her body glowed with luminescent light, and with every time passed by, the crescent-shaped moon was getting bigger.

  This scene, of course, didn't escape from the enemy's eyes. They tried to disrupt Celine's move by attacking the fox. However, Mira's golem was there to intercept.

  " Hehe, don't think you can touch Celine when I am still here."

  The golem easily took all of the blow from the enemies, and Celine's move was soon completed.

  " Now! Moon, shine down and obliterate your enemies!"

  Just when Celine's words fell, the Huge crescent moon also fell on her enemy's spirit beast.

  The beam might seem slow, but somehow, it was unavoidable.

  BOOOMMM!!!!!

  A huge explosion occurred on the battlefield, and after the smoke dissipated, only two spirit beasts were revealed to be standing in the arena.

  " Winner: Celine, Mira, and Greta!" The referee announced the winner, and even though they won, there was no trace of happiness on Celine's face.

  This move was a special move and should be hidden until the main tournament. However, because of Greta's silly mistake, they were at a disadvantage, and Celine must use this battle to finish their enemies.

  Celine came to Greta with dissatisfaction and was about to reprimand her, but…


  " I'm sorry. I'm not currently in the right state of mind." Greta bowed down to Celine and Mira and quickly left the training ground without turning back, which startled the two.

  From their memories, Greta was a cheerful girl, and even though she was a bit weaker than them, she always tried to improve and very welcome to critics. Thus, the incident of Greta running away right now left a strange taste in their mouth.

  However, just like they said about the mantis, oriole and cicada. When Celine and Mira was left astonished in the arena, a little kid in the audience bench was smirking with this development.

  " Hehe, it was right to come here today. Now let's go and follow Greta."

  After Greta left, Ray has lost all his interest on the preliminary… He stood up from the bench and chose to follow Greta, who if Ray was not wrong, should be in that place.
