Free Web NovelChapter 361: Chapter 135: Started by Revealing an A-level card?!
Upon receiving the phone call, Ree Shil quickly arrived at the Card Club.
The call came from Mossy Mushroom, saying that someone had come to challenge the club.
As soon as Ree Shil entered the club, the Blue-skinned Deputy Supervisor greeted him.
"Coach Shil, isn’t this an unfortunate coincidence?"
His face was slightly anxious, "These few days, Secretary Brown is on vacation, and as the highest-ranking person in the club right now, I’ve been temporarily put in charge."
"Huh?"
"Uh, no no no, as the highest person in the club in terms of real power right now, I’ve been temporarily put in charge."
"...Well, changing the wording didn’t really change the meaning."
"Anyway, this is what’s going on..."
Blue Skin began to explain the situation.
Today, the person who came to challenge the club was from the Balanced Card Club.
Just hearing the name "Balanced Card Club" indicated that it was no ordinary place.
Being able to have this name was proof enough that they were the largest and most officially recognized club in the Balance District.
If we were to discount the exceptional case of Henry Thompson participating this year, most of the strongest club representatives in the city had come from the Balanced Card Club in the past.
"What are the odds."
Ree Shil’s use of "coincidence" held a different meaning than Blue Skin’s.
During the many days he was in Instance, no one came to challenge the club.
And just now when he returned, the opponents showed up.
Moreover, it was the Balanced Card Club; the name alone...
"Where is the person? I didn’t see them at the entrance just now."
He asked.
"Today’s challenger is keeping a low profile."
"I heard from the front desk colleagues that he had actually come several times before, each time asking if you were here."
"It wasn’t until today, when they heard you were back, that they started the challenge."
"Now the person is in the reception room."
Blue Skin said.
"Alright then, let’s go meet them."
Ree Shil waved his hand, signaling the other party to keep up with his pace.
Soon, they arrived at the reception room.
Several coaches were casually chatting with the challenger.
Moreover, these coaches were top-tier within the Coach Group.
It seemed like the challenger was acquainted with them.
"Coach Shil, you’re here."
"This is Coach P from the Balanced Card Club."
When Ree Shil arrived, someone introduced him.
At this time, the man named Coach P stood up and smiled at Ree Shil.
Ree Shil quickly glanced at him and noticed he was not a pure human.
However, he looked quite similar to a pure human, an ordinary man of about 30 years old with fish fins on both sides of his ears.
His appearance was plain with no extraordinary aura.
"Hello, Coach Shil."
When the opponent greeted him, Ree Shil felt as though he was enveloped by a spring breeze.
Look at this, all you rude calamari, an outsider is more well-behaved than you.
"Hi, Coach P."
He shook the other person’s hand warmly.
"I’ve been too busy to pay attention before."
Coach P smiled and said, "I didn’t expect the second place on the selection tournament rankings to be so young."
"Oh, it’s nothing really."
Ree Shil waved his hand modestly.
As soon as he left the Instance, he called the club to learn about the situation.
He knew the current ranking of the players’ scores.
First place was Henry Thompson.
At first, he heard that Henry Thompson was deliberately holding on to his position by not challenging others and waiting for them to step on his path.
However, it seemed that everyone else had agreed on a strategy and none of them went to challenge him. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Because, in everyone’s eyes, unless completely desperate and willing to gamble on scores, challenging Henry Thompson seemed no different from giving away points.
This led to Henry Thompson waiting idly, still with zero points.
As a result, he angrily challenged 12 clubs in one go.
Later, some players indeed had no choice but to challenge Henry Thompson for more points.
So, his current score was 52, which gave him a commanding lead.
Moreover, the skill levels of this year’s other players were quite close, so everyone’s scores were very tense and similar.
Due to Ree Shil’s 11 consecutive wins, just as Secretary Brown predicted, he was currently second with 33 points.
As for the players below him, Ree Shil did not pay much attention. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"Coach P from the Balanced Card Club is currently in third place on the leaderboard."
At this time, Blue Skin leaned in and whispered to Ree Shil.
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Ree Shil felt a bit enlightened.
It seemed like the other party was here to snatch second place from him.
However, this person did not take advantage of his absence, but instead waited for him to leave Instance before initiating the challenge - that showed some integrity.
"If Coach Shil doesn’t mind, I’m ready to start at any time."
At this moment, Coach P spoke again.
"Alright, let’s start."
Ree Shil smiled faintly and made a welcoming gesture.
And then, he waved his hand.
Buzz!
A card table made of light appeared as he released it.
Later, the Blue Light Barrier was erected, gently pushing away unrelated people.
"Shoot, I haven’t finished explaining..."
Seeing how quickly the card game was set up, Blue Skin’s face grew tense.
The surrounding coaches also showed worried expressions.
It was because they all knew that Coach P was not an ordinary player.
Just like Coach Shil, he had fought 11 games without a single loss!
Currently, his score was 31 points.
In all previous card games, whether he was challenging or being challenged, he had never lost.
Even facing Henry Thompson, he managed to end in a tie!
That was the reason he was temporarily 2 points behind Coach Shil.
It’s a pity that now the barrier was established, and they had no time to inform Ree Shil about it.
Even at this moment, both parties were setting up their cards at rapid speed.
Soon, the cards were set up, and the card game began.
"If Coach Shil doesn’t mind, I’ll be the first to play."</p
