After six consecutive matches, it was finally Tiange Academy's turn to go on stage.
"Principal, should we follow Huawu High's example? We only sent out two Lord-tier familiars." Wei Gongfan was eager to give it a try.
Gao Peng looked at him with a caring gaze. "If you dare to do that, I'll break your legs. What's the point of competing if you can't even show basic respect to your opponent?"
That sounded reasonable, but when she thought about what the principal had done in the past, she couldn't help but feel that something was amiss …
Only the officials were allowed to set fires, but not the common people.
Seeing the questioning looks of the five little ones, Gao Peng coughed and said, "Alright, since you want to beat Huawu High School, then you must first perform better than Huawu High School in all aspects. Only then will you be able to take Huawu High School's title as last year's champion."
The five little ones suddenly realized that the principal was indeed full of tricks.
"Cao Huan, bring the Heavenly Skylark onto the stage. Don't bring the Canine Sunflower." Gao Peng knew that there must be people who knew that Tiange Academy's Lord-tier familiar trump card was the Stormcloud Sparrow. If they didn't bring the Stormcloud Sparrow onto the stage, it would arouse their suspicion.
"Don't expose your strength when you go on stage. Hold back your Lord-tier aura. If the opponent has a Lord-tier familiar, send the Heavenly Skylark … Stormcloud Sparrow to restrain it. If the opponent doesn't have a Lord-tier familiar, let the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster use its vines to strangle the enemy from a distance."
Mo Yingming chuckled. "Understood, Principal. It's just hiding our strength. We understand."
.....
"Ladies and gentlemen, the two teams that are about to go on stage are Tiange Academy and Luoyang High.
This is also the only two odd-numbered teams in the first round of the competition, and their rankings are very close. One of the teams was ranked seventh last year, and the other was ranked eighth last year!
There is only one rank difference between the two teams. I believe that this will be a fierce battle between dragons and tigers. "
In a luxurious villa in the Freedom Alliance, a luxurious leather sofa occupied almost the entire living room. The grayish-brown animal skin was dozens of square meters in size, and the thick hair was like a dense waterfall. After special treatment, one could sit on it by leaning back and sinking their buttocks into the sofa.
"Who do you think will win?" A middle-aged man with black hair and faint wrinkles at the corners of his eyes sat on the sofa.
Beside him, a man of similar age and wearing a black jacket leaned his head on the sofa, swinging his legs leisurely. "As long as there are no accidents, Tiange Academy will definitely win. After all, that brat is back, isn't he? Let's see how much they win."
"What you did two days ago was a little petty." The middle-aged man glanced at his younger brother. "That Gao Peng hasn't chosen a side yet. You're forcing him to choose He Wei's side."
The man in the black jacket glanced at his brother and yawned. "Okay, I'll be careful next time." He then got up from the sofa.
The middle-aged man was about to continue his lecture when the man in the black jacket suddenly turned his head 180 degrees, like a wolf turning its head and staring at his elder brother who was sitting on the sofa.
"Don't forget the rules of the Situ Clan. From the moment you were born, you were the person in charge of the Situ Family on the surface and enjoyed the limelight. I'm just a dog raised in the dark by the Situ Family! I'm just a dog. Do you expect me to understand human language? "
The smile on the man in the black jacket's face gradually became ferocious. "Let me tell you, when a dog goes crazy … it will bite anyone! Don't scold me like when I was young! "He waved his hand and left the villa without looking back.
Looking at his younger brother's back disappearing around the corner, the expression on Situ Yuan's face gradually disappeared.
.....
"Phew, I don't know if it's an illusion, but I keep feeling that the familiar from Tiange Academy is giving me a very strange feeling," a student from Luoyang Martial Arts High School muttered to himself.
"What kind of feeling?" someone next to him asked.
"A strange feeling of heaviness," the student who spoke first said. The student who spoke first smiled. "Maybe it's just an illusion. Maybe I'm just too nervous."
On the other side, the leading teacher from Huawu High School asked a bald man next to him, "Did you find anything?"
The bald man shook his head. "No, the familiars haven't changed. They're still the same as the ones in the information we received."
"Yeah, I knew it. Why should we pay so much attention to someone who escaped three years ago?" The leading teacher from Huawu High School said self-deprecatingly, "That Ji Hanwu is still a character. This Gao Peng is nothing. He's just lucky to have a good grandfather."
The Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster's legs, which were made of vines, kept wriggling as it slowly walked to the front.
"Be careful. The Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster on the other side has a very high combat quality. It took second place in Tiange Academy's intramural ranking competition. For a Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster that isn't good at fighting head-on to get such a high ranking, it must have something special about it. Be careful later and don't fail miserably," the leader of Luoyang Martial Arts High School said.
"Yeah, don't worry, leader. We know." The other team members nodded.
The Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster's body gradually lowered, getting lower and lower. Dense vines kept growing out of its body. A large number of vines came out of its body, sticking close to the ground and expanding towards the entire arena.
Because they didn't know if there were any traps, the team from Luoyang Martial Arts High School didn't act rashly at first. Instead, they had the team's fire-type familiars spit out a few fire snakes in an attempt to block the vines.
However, the vines passed through the fire snakes without hesitation. The flames on the vines continued to spread forward.
"Huh?" A monster trainer with sharp eyes saw that something was wrong.
This Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster should have broken through to Lord-tier! A Commander-tier Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster wouldn't be able to release so many vines.
"Thousand Leaf Mantis, cut the vines," the monster trainer from Luoyang Martial Arts High School ordered.
A green mantis that was as tall as a human stood out from the side. A pair of transparent wings that were as thin as a cicada's suddenly spread open. Under the sunlight, the green bones on the transparent wings emitted a metallic luster.
"Good quality. The Thousand Leaf Mantis's wings are valuable. This Thousand Leaf Mantis's wings are as thin as a cicada's and as hard as diamond. It must be at least perfect-grade," a monster breeder praised.
The Thousand Leaf Mantis raised its two saw-like blades high in the air and crossed them. The next moment, its wings flapped rapidly and disappeared from the spot, leaving behind a blurry afterimage in the air.
A few vines that were spreading in their direction were cut down the moment the afterimage flew past.
However, the Thousand Leaf Mantis's speed was visibly slowed down. It was obvious that it had encountered a lot of resistance.
The monster trainer of the Thousand Leaf Mantis's expression changed slightly. "These vines are very tough. It's very difficult for the Thousand Leaf Mantis to cut them down."
"How is that possible? If the difference in their levels isn't that big, it's very easy for the Thousand Leaf Mantis to cut down the vines of the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster." Another boy beside him shook his head. This was something that everyone knew.
"Then … could it be that the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster has advanced to Lord-tier?" someone suddenly said.
The others' expressions changed. "Not good."
However, at that moment, the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster's vines were already set up.
A large number of vines were densely packed and completely wrapped around them. Countless vines were squeezed into a ball and formed a high wall that kept twisting upwards. It looked like it was going to encircle them into a big ball.
"It can't be like this … How is that possible? The information we received clearly stated that the Lord-tier familiar of Tiange Academy was a Stormcloud Sparrow. How could it suddenly become a Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster?"
They had been guarding against the Stormcloud Sparrow from the beginning.
"Looks like I don't need to trouble you. The battle is over." Wei Gongfan laughed. He was the monster trainer of the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster.
"In the past, I've been wondering if the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster could develop this ultimate move. In the past, I couldn't develop it because I wasn't strong enough. A few days ago, after advancing to Lord-tier, I secretly tried it for a long time … Today, I'll broaden your horizons."
The vines in the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster's body were almost all sucked out. The vines on its back and limbs became sparse, and the vines on its legs were almost all sucked out. It floated in mid-air, almost all of the vines flying out of its body.
The air froze momentarily, and countless vines danced wildly like giant pythons.
"Strangulation — Vine Ocean!"
The air screamed, and the crazily twining vines exploded with extreme speed as they madly squeezed and danced inwards.
The huge space instantly shrank to a tiny point.
A large amount of air was expelled, and a large white cloud exploded outside the ball of vines.
Boom, boom, boom —
