Chapter 295: One Pink Is Worth Ten Black

"What is going on?"

"I don’t know…"

"From the magical energy coming from that follower, it should be a sixth-tier follower, right?"

"A sixth-tier follower should be easier to defeat."

"It must be about the mystery; but what is that mystery?"

"The female knight was drawn to that one who gave a rude gesture, and now this one is also drawn in, so it must not be a coincidence…"

"He still has one last mystery he hasn’t used yet."

"Speaking of which, after using five mystery spells in a row, he should have exhausted a lot of magical energy. Why does he still have so much energy left?"

Some knowledgeable audience members were whispering to each other, and even the committee and the knights’ association joined in, wondering what Karoso had really done.

However, it is not hard to understand how a secret could weaken a follower like this; it is still within an acceptable range.

What confused them the most was that they had to attack that follower who was raising a middle finger…

The host was also not someone who lacked understanding; he quickly realized that the follower’s weakness was related to the secret, and he shouted, "In the Knight Tournament earlier, Secret Cards appeared rarely. What kind of secret does Karoso Colloa’s Secret Card hide? I believe, like me, everyone thinks that the follower’s weakness is not just a coincidence, but the effect of the secret."

"A normal knight battle is a clash of swords and shields, rarely using spells and relying on fine skills."

"But! We cannot hold Karoso to the same standards as a normal knight; he is a Card Maker, and it is normal for him not to excel in knightly skills."

"Moreover, he is only fifteen years old, just entering sixth-tier, and trying to fight head-on will likely be very difficult for him."

"A real knight does not just charge forward recklessly; the Knight King of old also used strategies to win."

"Since knights have secret cards like this, it means the Knight King also agrees that knights should have some flexibility."

"Karoso seems very clever with this strange way of fighting."

"Let’s look forward to what surprises this contestant will bring us!"

Seeing the host talk to Karoso, the ladies in the audience showed him more kindness.

"Our darling is always right in everything they do."

"This is so clever! It’s completely different from those knights who only think about muscles and just swing their swords."

"Come on, take down that big bearded man!"

"No knight can match our darling!"

For a moment, there were many praises for Karoso.

However, because of all this praise, many men began to feel a lot of dislike for Karoso.

This little guy is just fighting in a clever way. When others used tricks before, you didn’t praise them, but instead, you scolded them fiercely.

Damn, it’s just because he looks a little smaller and a bit more handsome, how did he become so popular?

This pretty boy looks like the type who is good-looking but not useful.

Being sixth-tier at such a young age means he has already used up all his potential. Did he come to this Knight Tournament knowing he has no future and is just looking for a way out to become an idol?

Ugh, useless, just trying to find some attention here.

It’s clear that one fan is worth ten haters; the cheers for Karoso are so loud that they made many people dislike him.

Especially since the host keeps talking in favor of Karoso, it made many people feel even more unfair.

There’s nothing that can be done; money always goes to those who can spend. When it comes to buying merchandise, women are crazier than men.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Karoso himself. He doesn’t care about the cheers or boos; he only cares about winning or losing right now.

In an instant, the knight’s rhythm was completely thrown off.

Karoso took the chance to strike with two more swords.

Bang!

The knight finally could no longer hold up his Magic Shield; the shield shattered with a loud crash.

Bang!

Karoso’s great sword swung again, and the knight stepped back twice, finally knocked out of the arena by Karoso.

The knight’s face turned ashen; he knew he had lost, and lost decisively.

"Huff…" The knight showed no signs of being unable to accept defeat; although he desperately needed a victory, winning was winning, and losing was losing.

Losing here could only mean he lacked strength…

He stood still and gave a knightly salute to Karoso, saying, "Thank you for your guidance."

"Thank you," Karoso also returned a knightly salute.

"So, let’s congratulate Karoso Colloa for officially entering the top one hundred twenty-eight!" the host shouted.

For a moment, the cheers in the arena were deafening as everyone cheered for Karoso.

After finishing, Karoso said nothing more, but looked at the lonely figure of the knight and sighed.

He had no intention of helping this knight; there were too many people like him to manage.

Those adventurers would only be worse off than this knight.

Karoso couldn’t hire someone like him; he was a knight with a title, not just a simple Professional Knight.

Of course, Karoso understood that even though he lost, if he only pursued material things, he might gain more than if he had won.

Karoso kept his indifferent face and returned to the resting area.

The audience saw that Karoso ignored them, and they became even more excited; this kind of cool and distant young man really captivates some girls.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder; even if one doesn’t see Karoso as cool and distant, they might think he is shy.

In any case, when these fans get excited, it is truly a frightening power.

Karoso earnestly watched each team’s battle at the resting area, and his eyes kept darting around.

The various knight skills were so numerous that he could hardly keep up.

Knight skills can actually be quite dull, mostly focusing on hard fighting and endurance, balancing offense and defense.

Although the knights present didn’t show off their skills in an impressive way, their superb techniques still allowed Karoso to learn a lot.

Sometimes, what is basic may not be the worst; it all depends on who is using it.

After more than half an hour, Aileen defeated her opponent, wiped the sweat from her brow, and returned to the rest area, "Are you the first again? Did that strategy work again?"

"Many weaknesses have already been noticed," Karoso replied. "If we fight again, it won’t be so easy."

"There are weaknesses?" Aileen was taken aback.

"Abilities that rely on tricks always have weaknesses, but the one you learned has no weaknesses," Karoso said.

After all, it is a skill that has been honed through many eras and is already perfected, with both advantages and disadvantages being somewhat standard.

"I really look forward to our duel; I also want to see what your ability is all about," Aileen said with a smile.

As time went by, this battle also came to an end.

"Alright, the day’s competition has officially ended…" the host couldn’t help but exclaim. "But the main event is just beginning!"
