Yuzhou Base City's district finals would be held between Yuzhou Advanced Martial Arts School and Tiange Academy.
The middle of the stadium had been cleared out. There were familiars that looked like butterflies forming a circle around the arena. The butterfly-like familiars emitted a golden light from their bodies, forming a barrier that separated the audience from the arena.
On the left were the little boys and girls he had seen in the morning. Compared to how reserved they were when they first met him, they looked more confident in the arena.
The familiars in front of them were an Ironbone Saber-Toothed Tiger, a Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster, a Big Sun Flower, a Tang Dynasty Camouflage Smoke Pot, and an Ironwing Armored Soldier.
Gao Peng remembered that each team was made up of five familiars and could have a maximum of five trainers at the same time. At the very least, one trainer could participate in the battle — as long as the five familiars he had contracted were confident in winning the battle.
However, he had heard that last year, no one had been able to do so. Even the team with the smallest number of people had at least three.
Because they were all high school students, and because they could only sign a Blood Contract at the age of 18, the participating students could only contract familiars for two years at most. There was also a limit to the age of the participants, who could not be older than 20.
Within the limited time, of course, they would try their best to cultivate a familiar. This way, they could ensure that the familiars' abilities would be improved to the fullest. Since the rules allowed one person and one familiar, many schools would naturally choose to maximize the benefits.
The Ironbone Saber-Toothed Tiger had a tall and sturdy body. It was a mutant saber-toothed tiger that evolved from a tiger's ancestral evolution. It was currently level 36 and had strong recovery abilities. It was the team's frontline warrior and tank.
The Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster was an amalgamation of vines that did not have a specific shape. It was somewhat similar to a "monster" made of vines. Its arms were entwined with vines and dragged on the ground. There was a pitch-black eyeball exposed from the center of the entwined vines. This was the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster's only weakness.
The Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster was good at controlling vines to entangle and strangle the enemy. It was responsible for controlling the team, restricting the enemy's movements and fighting for a better battle environment for its teammates. It was the highest level of the five familiars, at level 40.
The Big Sun Flower was the team's healer. It was level 35. There were very few people who trained healer familiars, so its level wasn't low.
The Big Big Sun Flower was a monster with healing abilities. Its face was huge, and its yellow petals were stacked on the side of its cheeks, making its face look even bigger.
The Sunflower was one of the more common healing-type beasts nowadays.
Of course, this didn't mean that the common ones were weak. It was precisely because they were easy to use that many people liked them. The Dayang Flower had two forms of healing.
The first method was to shine the healing sunlight from the center of the flower to heal the target.
The second method was to spread the petals and create a Sunlight Domain around the area. All units within the Sunlight Domain would be healed. At the same time, the healing effect would be much weaker than the healing effect of a single unit.
Because the second form was an AOE healing that did not differentiate between friend and foe, there was a clear difference in Big Sun Flower's control. This was also a clear indicator of the difference in the training level of this Big Sun Flower.
A Tang Dynasty Colored Smokebox … As far as Gao Peng could remember, there weren't any smokeboxes in the Tang Dynasty, so this was probably a fake. But that was not important. Anyway, it had already mutated into a monster.
From the outside, it looked like a pot-shaped monster with a diameter of one meter. The pot-shaped monster could spit out a large amount of white smoke from its mouth. This was no ordinary smoke. It had a certain degree of shielding against perception and ocular abilities.
However, Second Baby's ability was quite effective against monsters with this ability.
The last Iron-Winged Armored Soldier was a monster that was two meters tall and made of iron plates. It had high attack, high defense, and was not slow. The iron plates on its body could extend explosively. It was the team's agility warrior and also a part-time assassin. It was level 38.
However, its weaknesses were also quite obvious. For example, the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster was very effective against it. Moreover, the iron plates were considered sharp weapons. When faced with an extremely tough opponent, they could not break through the opponent's defense.
Generally speaking, in a battle between high school students, many school teams would choose five familiars with high combat power. They would roughly assign them to the front and back. Then, when the battle began, they would directly rush forward.
This was because in a battle where most of the players were Commander-tier, familiars with abilities like the Tang Dynasty's Concealment Smoke Bottle would not be very useful. If in a head-on battle, there would be one less familiar to fight in a group battle. Who would be better and who would be worse?
If the Dayang Flower, which was purely healing, was taken out … Tiange Academy only had three familiars with offensive abilities. It was a rather bold combination.
Yuzhou's National Advanced Martial Arts School was a public school jointly organized by the Yuzhou military and the local government. It was not weak. All five of its familiars were above level 35.
When the battle began, the Tang Dynasty's Concealment Smoke Bottle opened. A large amount of white smoke poured out, covering the battlefield.
"Someone on the Internet commented that Tiange Academy's competition was the worst to watch this year. I think that person has a point," the host said.
"Yeah, the field is completely covered in white smoke. Nothing can be seen. Even the infrared camera's effect is very blurry. But I think this is pretty good. At least they have preserved their strength. When the time comes, they can use it in the finals," the guest host said with a smile.
"That's right. I heard that Tiange Academy is well prepared this year. They have a chance to make it to the top four."
"I think they might be able to make it to the finals," the guest host said. After all, bragging was not illegal. The more interesting the topic, the higher the viewership, the better.
"But it is indeed difficult to make it to the finals. Many high schools were not satisfied with the results of last year's competition. After they came back, they rubbed their palms together. I heard that many high schools are working hard in private."
"Yes, I heard that last year's champion, Huawu High School, and the runner-up, Jiangnan First High School."
"Huawu High School, Jiangnan No. 1 High School …"
The host and the guest host chattered non-stop on the television.
Gao Peng stopped thinking about it. He remembered that there were three top tribes in the ancient tribes. They were the White Dragon Tribe, the Green God Tribe, and the Xuanyou Tribe.
He had met the people of the White Dragon Tribe. His grandfather had not chosen to join them, but he had heard from his grandfather that the people of the White Dragon Tribe took good care of the Southern Sky. Otherwise, such a big piece of meat would not have been left untouched.
Now that the Jiangnan region had fallen under the control of the Freedom Alliance, although the Freedom Alliance had declared independence to the outside world, they did not "close the country to the outside world." Instead, they were open to the outside world. At the same time, they maintained full communication with the outside world and offered various preferential policies to attract talents to join them.
The World Allied Government had long been powerless to become an empty shell. In the face of such a situation, they could only leave it to the various regions to self-govern and let them clean up their own mess.
But the various regions were helpless … They could not do anything about it!
Gao Peng suddenly remembered a joke that his grandfather had made yesterday. It did not seem fake.
"If I wanted to compete for the mayor's position, I could sit in that position tomorrow.
Although there is no one surnamed Ji in Yuzhou, if I fart today, those people will come over and analyze what I want to eat tomorrow. "
This High School Championship … He was afraid that it was the product of those forces fighting openly and secretly.
Jiangnan No.1 High School was under the Freedom Alliance.
Then why did he get involved in this mess? His brain must have gone haywire. Gao Peng rubbed his face, somewhat speechless.
But since he had already said it, Gao Peng could not be bothered to go back on his words.
