Wow!
As the fight came to an end, the audience burst into cheers. Everyone was seething with excitement!
It never occurred to them that a battle pet warrior, who had always stood behind his battle pet, could be so powerful!
Granted, he had the Wind Siren's "Wind Amplification" skill. That being said, his speed was still shocking to many people!
They had never thought that it was possible to achieve such a feat with a human body of flesh and blood!
At the staging area.
Everyone's expression changed. They were shocked by this terrifying speed.
The Ye family.
Ye Longtian squinted his eyes. A glint of danger flashed in his eyes. He clenched his fists and curled his lips into a ferocious grin.
The Liu family.
The members of the Liu family were stunned. Even Liu Jianxin was in a daze.
Qin Shaotian didn't use any powerful pets and the battle ended with the Mu family admitting defeat. That being said, Qin Shaotian's speed made Liu Jianxin break out in a cold sweat.
If Liu Jianxin were in Qin Shaotian's shoes, he wouldn't have been able to survive if he had been caught off guard!
That was too fast!
Qin Shaotian was merely a sixth-rank battle pet warrior. How could he be so fast?!
Liu Qingfeng had never looked so worried. He kept his mouth shut and said nothing.
…
"That was fast!"
"I, I didn't see it clearly …"
Luo Fengtian and Su Yanying were both stunned.
Su Lingyue and Yu Weihan were stunned as well. They didn't expect that the fight would end so quickly. After all, Qin Shaotian's opponent was from the Mu Family. Qin Shaotian's opponent had performed well in the previous matches. However, he was defeated within a few rounds of attacks!
"Qin Shaotian …"
Su Lingyue pulled a long face.
She took a deep breath and calmed her thoughts.
Yu Weihan came back to her senses. She darted a look at Su Lingyue. All of a sudden, she felt sorry for Su Lingyue. She might have to fight against such a freak. Just the thought of it was terrifying!
As Qin Shaotian left the stage, another round of battles began.
Soon, it was the Liu family's turn to present Liu Jianxin!
Since Liu Jianxin was the third most likely candidate to win the championship, the crowd cheered at the sight of him. Before Su Lingyue showed off her dragon, everyone believed that the winner of Group D would be between Qin Shaotian and Liu Jianxin.
After all, they were the two favorites to win the championship.
But then, Su Lingyue came out of nowhere. She had performed so well that the final match of Group D was full of suspense.
Through Liu Jianxin's performance, they could see who was more likely to emerge victorious from Group D and become one of the Top 10!
However, to everyone's anticipation, Liu Jianxin's opponent surrendered as soon as he stepped onto the stage.
He surrendered without even summoning his battle pet.
There was no other reason for him to admit defeat. It was because this person's surname was also Liu.
Their expectations turned into disappointment. The audience couldn't help but complain and express their dissatisfaction. But even if they were dissatisfied, it was useless. After all, if the other party wanted to admit defeat, could they stop it?
It was disappointing that they didn't get to see Liu Jianxin's performance. After some complaints and curses, the audience quieted down. After all, the matches were still going on and Liu Jianxin would come back later. It was just that they were unhappy that they couldn't see the result of the match in advance.
Soon, the second round of matches for Group D began.
Five out of ten people had already won the first round.
Once again, the five people would draw lots and fight each other in pairs. The two winners would fight in the final round and the winner would become one of the Top 10!
The one with a bye would be able to pick any loser in the second round. If he won, he would be able to challenge the loser in the second round. If he won, he would have a chance to enter the Top 10.
On the other hand, if he lost, the loser would have a chance to enter the Top 10 and would have a chance to pick another Top 10. If he won, he would be one of the Top 10 and he would not be able to be picked by anyone else!
To a large extent, this system ensured fairness. Powerful warriors wouldn't meet each other in advance, which would lead to premature deaths.
Even if Liu Jianxin and Qin Shaotian were to fight each other in the second round, the loser could still challenge the loser in the second round. If he won, he would be able to challenge the loser in the second round. If he won again, he would be able to challenge the loser in the second round. As long as he was strong enough, he would be able to make it all the way!
On the screen, the names and pictures of the five people were scrolling.
The audience, including the five people, held their breaths as they watched.
Soon, Su Lingyue's eyelids twitched as she saw her opponent.
She didn't get a bye.
She was a bit disappointed.
But she was relieved to see that her opponent was neither Qin Shaotian nor Liu Jianxin.
On the other hand, Qin Shaotian didn't meet Liu Jianxin either. Liu Jianxin got a bye in the second round!
This result surprised everyone. In the first round, Liu Jianxin's opponent admitted defeat. In the second round, Liu Jianxin got a bye. That was to say, Liu Jianxin had made it to the third round without any effort!
That's just too lucky!
Many people even believed that there was something fishy going on and that the draw should be canceled!
Of course, the drawing of the lots was done by machines. The five major families and the mayor were there to supervise it. Even if the results were falsified, they would have to get permission from all of them. Therefore, the drawing of the lots was set in stone and could not be changed.
As the result came out, the Liu family looked at each other and then at Liu Jianxin. They were afraid that Liu Jianxin would run into Qin Shaotian in the second round. Even if he didn't run into Qin Shaotian, they were still worried that he would run into Su Lingyue.
Before, they were hoping that Su Lingyue would run into Qin Shaotian. However, after witnessing the dragon's roar, they only hoped that Qin Shaotian and Su Lingyue would run into each other first. It would be best if both of them were wounded.
That way, Liu Jianxin would have a better chance of winning!
"Brother Jianxin, you're so lucky!"
"I didn't know that Brother Jianxin was a hidden lucky star!"
"Tsk tsk, it's actually a walkover. This is simply fate!"
"That's how it usually goes for the main character. He will get a bye and then he will make his move in the end. Once he makes his move, he will shock the world!"
"Well, Xiao Meng, you know a lot!"
The other members of the Liu family were exclaiming.
Liu Jianxin came back to his senses. He was relieved. He produced a forced smile.
He didn't expect this result either. He felt like he had just done something wrong.
"Jianxin …" Liu Qingfeng looked at Liu Jianxin. After a moment of silence, he said, "You … are good!"
“?”
Liu Jianxin was confused.
What have I done? Good?
But thinking about it carefully, he also felt that his luck today was off the charts. From the current matchups, Group D was the most difficult group of hell. In the hearts of the four great families, Qin Shaotian was the one they were most wary of. Not only was he in Group D, but the funny looking girl who was guaranteed to be the champion had also suddenly displayed a terrifying battle strength. This made Group D even more difficult.
Given the two major threats, Liu Jianxin would be unlucky no matter who he ran into first. The other would take advantage of him.
But it turned out that it was his turn to take advantage. This was fate!
…
On the other side, at the Qin Family.
"Damn it. That guy took advantage of me."
"That is to say, Young Master is going to run into that woman next."
"That woman is as threatening as Liu Jianxin. I don't think the dragon has shown its full strength yet. I wonder if she has any other defensive battle pets. If she doesn't, Young Master will be able to kill her in a second!"
The members of the Qin Family were thinking about their young master.
Qin Shaotian leaned back in his chair with a casual look on his face. When the result of the draw came out, he darted a look at the girl in the distance, who seemed to be glad that she had won.
Qin Shaotian couldn't help but put on a smile. He then darted a look at the Liu family. The smile on his face widened when he saw how excited the Liu family was.
…
The draw came to an end.
The second round of matches in Group D had officially begun. Su Lingyue was going to fight against another person. This person wasn't from one of the five major families, nor was he from a famous school. He was a young man who had graduated from an average battle pet academy and had risen to prominence in the barren area.
When the judge called her name, Su Lingyue left the staging area and went to the stage.
She stood within the red line and summoned the Moonfrost Dragon in advance.
Once again, the audience cheered when the dragon showed up.
Su Lingyue's opponent jumped onto the stage from the other side.
That young man didn't seem to care at all when the audience was cheering his name.
He unsheathed the saber on his back and summoned his battle pets within the red line.
The two seventh-rank battle pets had both reached the peak of their seventh-rank bloodlines.
If they were in another place, the two advanced battle pets would have caused an uproar. However, in front of the Moonfrost Dragon and many other battle pets with ninth-rank bloodlines, the audience merely heaved a sigh of disappointment.
"Hmm!"
The young man sneered. The two battle pets were just a cover.
His real trump card was the third battle pet that he had been hiding.
Of course, he knew that the first thing he had to deal with was the dragon's skill of the light family.
"Curved surface …" the young man said to himself.
A glint of white light flashed in one of the battle pets' eyes. The light around them was twisting slightly. The change was subtle and hard to see.
But the judge who was looking down from the sky saw it. He darted a glance at the young man but didn't say anything. Releasing skills or summoning battle pets in advance was fine as long as the battle pet was within the red line.
A battle between battle pet warriors was not a test of the battle pets' strength. It was a test of the battle pets' teamwork and strategy.
Unless the battle pet was completely one-sided!
"What? A Moonfrost Beast? "
On the other side of the stage, Su Lingyue recognized the two battle pets at once. One of them was a pet of the demon family and the other of the element family.
The pet of the element family was of the wind family.
But she had heard from her teacher in class that the beasts of the element family were gifted and there was a small chance that they could learn skills of the light family!
Her grades had always been among the best in the academy. She deserved to be number one in the grade.
"He has seen what I can do. Instead of surrendering, he wants to fight. Is he confident that he can avoid my attack?" Su Lingyue's mind was racing.
Right then, the judge spoke.
The match began!
As soon as the judge finished his words, Su Lingyue calmed down and gave the order.
"Dragon's Roar!"
"Perception!"
"Penetrating Ray!"
Three different skills were released at the same time.
The dragon's roar resounded again!
The young man had been prepared. He had used his battle pets' skills to close off his mind. That was a skill of the spirit family that his battle pets of the demon family had learned.
Those two battle pets only had advanced bloodlines but they were talented. That was why he didn't abandon them.
The young man ignored the dragon's roar. He was ready to fight back.
However, right then, the light in his eyes gathered. He saw the world turn blank!
"It's okay …"
He remembered the "Curved Surface" skill. His heart was in his throat.
But in the next moment, his pupils suddenly shrank to the extreme.
That beam of light was aimed at his real body!
Bang!!
The stage trembled violently. The seal was hit again. The ground was shaking!
Less than ten centimeters away from him, the hot air was like a ribbon of fire. The young man's heart almost stopped!
Did I miss?
The young man struggled to turn his head. He saw the remaining ripples of light on the seal.
Before he had time to rejoice, he suddenly heard the voice of the referee, announcing his defeat!
The judge's voice was like a hammer pounding on his chest. He found it hard to breathe. "I haven't lost yet!"
The referee glanced at him and said, "If it wasn't for him being merciful, you would already be dead. Don't tell me you think that you can hide from the dragon's perception of the eighth step with your 'Curved Surface' skill of the seventh step?"
The young man was stunned.
Su Lingyue was relieved to hear that she had won. It was just as she had guessed. Without another word, she called the Moonfrost Dragon back and stepped down from the stage.
Another instant kill.
The audience went wild again!
Not only did the Penetrating Ray defeat her opponent, but it also broke the "Curved Surface" skill in front of the young man, revealing his real body and his battle pets.
At first, some people thought that the dragon had missed its target. It turned out that the dragon was aiming at the real body.
As for the difference of ten centimeters … What a joke! The dragon could find the real body three meters away. Ten centimeters was nothing to it!
…
At the staging area.
Yu Weihan looked at Su Lingyue with mixed feelings.
Only when she saw the dragon's skill did she realize how magnificent and stunning it was.
She had been insta-killed by this skill just now!
Su Yanying and Luo Fengtian congratulated Su Lingyue. They knew that Su Lingyue had a good chance of winning, but they didn't expect that the battle would end so quickly.
They had seen the young man's previous battles. His moves were vicious. One look and they could tell that he was using the barren area's fighting style, which was direct and straightforward.
However, in the face of absolute power, there was no room for these techniques to be used!
"Have a good rest," Su Yanying said to Su Lingyue with concern.
Su Lingyue had finished the two matches quickly but she was still a bit tired. She had to be at her peak state for the following matches.
Luo Fengtian and Yu Weihan were taken aback. Su Lingyue had won. Then … her next opponent would be the future family head of the most powerful family in the Longjiang Base City!
That future family head had performed so well that he was even more eye-catching than Ye Longtian. As far as they were concerned, the future family head should be in the Top 3 at the very least!
At the same time.
As Su Lingyue left the stage, Qin Shaotian stood up as well.
The moment he stood up, all eyes were on him. He had become the center of everyone's attention.
The cheers had just died down when the crowd went wild again.
Qin Shaotian calmly left the staging area and jumped onto the stage.
Everyone was looking forward to the next match.
The expressions of all the contestants turned solemn.
However, this time, Qin Shaotian's battle ended quickly as well. Again, he only summoned the Wind Siren to give him a "Super Gale" buff.
However, this time, his opponent was prepared. Before the battle began, he had summoned his defensive battle pet and cast all kinds of protection and hindrance skills on himself.
Of course, that didn't save him from defeat. The only thing he did was to prolong the battle a little bit.
Qin Shaotian held his sword in one hand and moved like a ghost. He dashed through the thorny bushes on the stage, destroying all the hindrances along the way. He was getting close to his opponent.
Aside from a few contestants, the majority of the audience could only barely see a blurry afterimage. As for some of the ordinary audience members, they could only see Qin Shaotian's opponent continuously unleashing skills. However, all of the skills were strangely cut off or blocked. They couldn't see the attacker's figure.
In the end, Qin Shaotian reached the young man who was hiding behind the defensive skills. With one swing of his sword, Qin Shaotian broke all the defensive skills and left a wound on the young man's chest.
The entire battle looked very smooth and ended very quickly.
Qin Shaotian's victory finally brought the audience back to their senses. They burst into loud cheers.
After the judge announced the result, Qin Shaotian didn't leave the stage. He flicked the blood off his sword and looked at the staging area. The next battle would be the deciding battle.
He looked at a girl in the staging area. The next round would be the deciding battle.
The winner would advance to the Top 10!
