If the first time was just a coincidence, then the second time made people think deeply.
The spectators in the stands stared at the stage with wide eyes, looking for a place to end the battle. The fact that Starfire Academy had ended the battle so quickly caused everyone to be puzzled.
Not only the spectators, even the students fighting in the other stages consciously separated, looking for a place to end the battle. When they saw a youth walking towards the edge of the stage, they couldn't help but be stunned!
Could it be that stage?
If this youth was the winner, then wasn't he too young?
Not far away, Moon Rain Academy's Du Xin looked at this youth with knitted brows. She felt like she had seen this youth somewhere before, and it was only a few days ago.
Right!
It was that night!
Du Xin was shocked. Looking at Lu An who had already walked down the stage, her whole body trembled! This youth was the one who was bullied by Xu Guangchang that night. Could it be that his strength was so strong?
Although she didn't see this youth fight, which one of those who could come here didn't have true strength? Even if they were a little weaker, they wouldn't be defeated in two or three moves. This meant that this youth's strength far surpassed his opponents!
This year's Starfire Academy was too different from the past!
However, Lu An who had walked down the stage didn't care what these people thought. He walked straight to the Starfire Academy's team's outdoor resting area. When he arrived, Fu Yu also happened to arrive.
Without waiting for the two to approach, the remaining eight students had already cheered and pounced on them! However, they didn't dare to do anything to Fu Yu, only daring to pounce on Lu An.
"Too strong! The two of you are simply too strong! "
"Sure enough, I said that the two of you wouldn't have any problems. With your strength, you'll definitely be able to walk to the end!"
At this time, the five teachers also came in front of the two. Li Hongtang couldn't hide the smile on his face. He took a deep breath and patted Lu An's shoulder, saying, "Very good!"
Lu An smiled and said, "Thank you, teacher."
Following that, Li Hongtang turned to Fu Yu, shook his head slightly, and said with emotion, "Fu Yu, you finally made your move!"
This sentence was what everyone was thinking. Everyone nodded in agreement with Li Hongtang.
Although Ms. Han Ying and Lu An had clearly stated that Fu Yu was stronger than Lu An, these people had never seen Fu Yu's strength. Even though they were worried that Lu An might have said that on purpose before the match, they knew that their worries were unnecessary when they saw their opponent get killed in an instant.
Fu Yu glanced at Li Hongtang, but did not say anything. She walked to a chair and sat down. Her slightly furrowed brows seemed to express how boring this competition was.
After the battle between Fu Yu and Lu An ended, the other stages quickly resumed their battles. However, everyone's attacks were even more ruthless, as if they had been stimulated. Everyone wanted to end the battle as quickly as possible, and they didn't even save their Sky Origin Energy.
In less than half an incense's time, a judge announced loudly, "Broad Deer Academy, victory!"
"Tianmu Academy wins!"
"Moon Rain Academy wins!"
…
One battle after another ended quickly. This speed was much faster than the first round of the previous year. The further back they fought, the more anxious they became. It was as if the longer they fought, the more embarrassed they would be.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed. There were still three stages left, and the people on them were still fighting with their lives on the line.
Only three stages were left, and they had become the focus of the audience. No one wanted to lose in front of so many people, so they fought with all their might.
The battle that affected the hearts of the Starfire Academy students was naturally the battle between Yin Qi and Moon Rain Academy.
Everyone had been watching for a while, and Lu An had also been watching Yin Qi's battle. He had to admit that his opponent's strength was indeed much higher than Yin Qi's. In addition, water countered fire. Yin Qi had been able to hold on until now purely by his own willpower.
His opponent's waterfall and water bullets flew towards Yin Qi, while Yin Qi's fireballs couldn't even break through his opponent's water curtain. It was obvious who would win and who would lose. How could someone who couldn't even hurt his opponent win?
Not to mention Yin Qi, even if Lin Tianhao came, he wouldn't be a match for this person.
Was this the strength of Moon Rain Academy?
Lu An frowned slightly as he watched his opponent leisurely control the entire stage. That kind of calmness and composure gave him a feeling of artistic conception. This reminded him of his classmate, Bian Qingliu. However, although Bian Qingliu's strength wasn't as good as his opponent's, his artistic conception was far more powerful.
Finally, under the suppression of his opponent's water bullets, Yin Qi was forced to retreat repeatedly, and he was already at the edge of the stage. At this moment, his opponent attacked with a waterfall without any fancy moves, directly swallowing Yin Qi's flames and sweeping him off the stage.
"Moon Rain Academy wins!"
Immediately, the audience erupted in applause. Because with Moon Rain Academy's victory, the three students from Sky Screen, Moon Rain, and Wide Deer all advanced. This meant that nine of the top 12 in the second round were from the traditional three academies, and surprisingly, two of the remaining three were from Starfire Academy!
There was an hour between the first round and the second round. When Yin Qi was helped back to the resting area by his students, he said to Li Hongtang in shame, "Teacher, I'm sorry to disappoint you."
Li Hongtang's expression was solemn. Just when everyone thought he was going to fly into a rage, he reached out his hand and patted Yin Qi's shoulder hard, saying, "You've done well enough."
Yin Qi's body shook. He raised his head and looked at Li Hongtang in astonishment, his eyes instantly turning red!
"Men bleed, but not tears, especially on the battlefield. Don't let others look down on us!" Li Hongtang scolded in a low voice. Hearing this, Yin Qi hurriedly wiped his eyes and nodded hard.
During the break, Yin Qi took the initiative to sit beside Lu An, because according to the order, Lu An's next opponent was his opponent. He said in a hoarse voice, "Did you watch my battle just now?"
"I did." Lu An nodded and said, "Thank you for buying time for me."
Yin Qi was startled, then revealed a bitter smile. He didn't expect Lu An to see through that. Indeed, the main reason he hadn't been willing to admit defeat was to help Lu An exhaust his opponent's heavenly essence energy.
However, from the way his opponent handled the situation with ease, his goal hadn't been achieved.
"His water is very strong, it's the nemesis of fire." Yin Qi said, "You have dual attributes of ice and fire. Don't use fire in the next round, use ice instead."
"Mm." Lu An nodded and looked at the Moon Rain Academy resting area in the distance. At this time, the Moon Rain Academy's people were also looking at Starfire Academy.
"Next, I'll fight someone from the Canopy Academy." Du Xin glanced at Starfire Academy, then turned to look at her companions and said, "Your opponent is Starfire Academy."
"Don't worry, Sister Du, I'll definitely win!" Jiang Chao waved his hand and said confidently.
Du Xin frowned and said in a low voice, "Jiang Chao, don't underestimate your opponent."
"What? Sister Du, are you scared too? " Jiang Chao was stunned, then waved his hand and laughed. "The two victories were just a coincidence. One against Han Sha, and the other against Fang Tong. This was completely a lucky draw. You know that Starfire Academy is always at the bottom. What can they do?"
Du Xin knew Jiang Chao too well. She knew that no matter how much she said, she wouldn't be able to change his mind. She could only walk to the side and sit down, then look at the Starfire Academy resting area in the distance.
She saw a young man and a young girl sitting together, the two of them discussing something. Until now, she still couldn't believe that the two of them could win the competition. Based on age, when she was her age, she didn't even have the qualifications to enter the academy.
The three academies were all fiercely discussing countermeasures. Because most of their opponents in the next round were from the three academies, everyone became cautious. This was only the beginning of the battle.
Time flew, and soon, an hour had passed. The host shouted loudly, "The second round of the individual ranking battle officially begins!"
