Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1258 - 916: Completely Different Purposes

On the other side, Tokyo School’s conference room.

The group gathered here, including Reiger, didn’t start with discussions or meetings, but first received today’s competition rules for the exchange event.

"Today’s event is a team battle, and the content of the team battle is a Curse Spirit Extermination Speed Race."

Yaga Masamichi personally came to announce the format and rules of the competition to everyone from Tokyo School.

"We’ve marked an area in the forest outside the school campus, which will be your competition venue."

"In the venue, there are numerous curse spirits that have been captured alive by employed Curse Mages and placed there."

"The strongest curse spirit is a second-grade curse spirit; besides this second-grade curse spirit, there are also many third-grade and below curse spirits placed inside."

"The way to decide victory in this competition is that the first side to exterminate the second-grade curse spirit will win."

Yaga Masamichi kicked out Gojo Satoru, who was trying to stir up trouble, and continued speaking.

"The competition lasts from noon till night, and once it gets dark, the competition will end."

"If it becomes dark and the second-grade curse spirit, which is the primary target, hasn’t been exorcised, then the side that has exterminated the most third-grade and below curse spirits will directly win."

"During the competition, interfering with the opponent’s actions is permitted. As long as you don’t kill the opponent or cause irreversible damage, any means can be used."

"That’s all for the first day’s team battle in the Kyoto Sister School Exchange Event. Be well prepared."

After speaking, Yaga Masamichi grabbed Gojo Satoru, who was limping back while rubbing his butt, and dragged him away despite his wails.

"..."

Everyone could only witness this happen, and after being silent for a long time, they collectively chose to ignore it.

"Is the first day about the speed of exterminating curse spirits?" Zenin Maki snorted lightly and said, "No wonder they are so arrogant over at Kyoto School after hearing we have a special grade."

"As long as you exterminate the second-grade curse spirit, the boss, you can win." Panda lay on the ground lazily and said, "In that case, even if we have a special grade, we don’t have much of an advantage."

"Indeed." Fushiguro Megumi said thoughtfully, "If Kyoto School deliberately avoids fighting us and focuses all their efforts on exorcising curse spirits, we might lose."

"It really has the style of Curse Mages." Kugisaki Nobara said somewhat unhappily, "It’s not about who is stronger, but who can complete the task fastest and exorcise curse spirits. The people above really know how to plan."

"Salmon." Inumaki Toge nodded, showing his agreement.

"But shouldn’t it be okay?" Itadori Yuji said optimistically, "Even if we don’t fight each other, exorcising curse spirits, isn’t that where we have more of an advantage?"

Itadori Yuji said so purely because there are more people from Tokyo School.

In the first grade, there are Reiger, Itadori Yuji, Fushiguro Megumi, and Kugisaki Nobara, four people.

In the second grade, there are Zenin Maki, Panda, and Inumaki Toge, three people.

In total, Tokyo School has seven participants, whereas Kyoto School only has six.

In this case, if they focus on exterminating curse spirits, their speed should be faster than Kyoto School.

"It’s not that more people are necessarily an advantage." Zenin Maki poured cold water on the idea and said, "Exterminating curse spirits isn’t the hardest part, the real difficulty is finding the target and preventing interference from the enemy."

"If Kyoto School has someone skilled in tracking techniques who can quickly find curse spirits, then we’re just one more person, and the advantage can be erased immediately."

"For finding curse spirits, isn’t Fushiguro really good at that too?" Itadori Yuji raised his hand, proposing again, "And there’s Reiger, they can both use [Ten Shadow Techniques] to summon big dogs that are great at sniffing out curse spirits and finding them."

"That’s true." Panda scratched his chin and said, "If that’s the case, then we only have to worry about one thing."

That is, preventing interference from the opponent.

If the other side has the ability to interfere with our actions, we will also fall into a disadvantage.

"They shouldn’t trouble us directly, right?"

Kugisaki Nobara said somewhat uncertainly.

"That’s not certain." Zenin Maki said, "After all, Kyoto School has Todo. Even if you don’t count Todo, they also have the Kamoi Family’s young master. Although he’s not first-grade, he’s quasi first-grade. If they really cause trouble for us, besides Reiger, who else can confidently say they can definitely stop them?"

Everyone fell silent.

As brutal as it is, that’s the truth.

Kyoto School has Todo Aoi, a first-grade sorcerer capable of exorcising special grade curse spirits; if he comes over, other than Reiger, no one on Tokyo’s side would have much chance against him.

Even Itadori Yuji, whose strength has greatly increased, would likely pale in comparison to Todo Aoi.

If no cursed energy is used and it’s purely a physical combat, maybe Itadori Yuji could overcome the big guy, Todo Aoi.

But as Todo Aoi is a third-year student at Kyoto Prefectural Curse High School, he has far more experience using cursed energy than Itadori Yuji, and possesses innate techniques that Itadori Yuji doesn’t have. If they really fight, Itadori Yuji’s chances of winning wouldn’t be too high.
