Chapter 44 - 44 The First Round of Battle Begins
44 The First Round of Battle Begins
Ye Fan sensed a trace of malice in Cao Zhengji’s eyes. He didn’t say a word, coldly looking across. After mocking the Rose Society, the members of the Heart Society left.
Su Wan’er and Chen Xin gnashed their teeth in anger. Even Xu Menghan couldn’t hide the anger on her face, but Xiao Qiuya was very calm. She comforted Ye Fan, “Don’t worry about them. When the time comes, we’ll just do our best. Victory isn’t important.”
“Okay.”
Ye Fan nodded, his expression indifferent.
Xu Menghan finally reacted. She took out an exquisite wooden box and handed it to Ye Fan.
“Alright, this is my reward for you.”
Ye Fan picked up a book and opened a page. Inside the box was red liquid.
There was also a strange stone the size of an egg. It was golden in color, like a burning fireball. These two things were a drop of Abyssal Blood and a Golden Flame Stone.
“Thank you.” Xu Menghan’s move caused Ye Fan to have a good impression of her.
No matter what, these were both Rank-4 items, and they were very precious. Xu Menghan could give him the reward before the competition started, which showed her confidence in him. Moreover, they did not give him any feeling that they could win.
…
Ten minutes later, the referee and the staff arrived at the scene. The competition was about to begin. The Rose Society and the Heart Society were located on both sides of the field. In the middle of the square was a huge arena that had been temporarily built.
In the stands, many students had expectant expressions. Clearly, they were filled with interest in the upcoming battle.
“Hehe, I just went on a training trip. When I came back, I encountered this society competition.”
“Tsk tsk, I really don’t understand why those guys from the Heart Society would do this. Everyone in the Rose Society is a beauty.”
“Brother, your information is too obsolete. The Rose Society has recruited a new boy.”
“Damn, wait, who’s so lucky?”
“Look, it’s that guy. Sigh, he’s so handsome.”
“Can you focus?”
Finally, they were back on track. Only then did the audience focus on the two teams’ rosters.
The Rose Society’s team was simple and straightforward.
There were two third-year students participating, one second-year student, and two first-year students. The participants from Heart Society were even more powerful this time. Among the five of them, there were two third-year students and three second-year students.
“Damn, don’t you have any shame? There’s actually no new student.”
“That’s right. At least give the first-year students a spot.”
“What a rough man. He doesn’t look like a gentleman at all.”
“I feel a little sorry for the Rose Society.”
He heard the discussions around him. Cao Zhengji sneered. Elegance was not as important as true benefits.
This was a very important competition. If he could win, his society’s resources would be greatly improved in the next year. As a member of the Heart Society, he could also obtain many benefits. As long as he had enough cultivation materials, his chances of advancing to the third rank would be higher. Wouldn’t this benefit be more tempting?
Thinking of this, a mocking smile appeared on Cao Zhengji’s lips. His gaze landed on the few people in the Rose Society. Xu Menghan and Xiao Qiuya were both top three students from the third year. They were both very capable.
As for these two people, it was naturally up to Guo Qi and Lin Weiping to deal with them. His target was the other three, especially this new student called Ye Fan. No matter how talented he was, it didn’t matter.
I’ll ruthlessly humiliate you in front of everyone.
At the thought of trampling the young man in front of him on the ground, Cao Zhengji could not help but feel ecstatic. Under everyone’s gaze, the referee walked onto the stage and said loudly, “The competition between the Heart Society and the Rose Society has officially begun.”
“The competition will use an elimination system. The loser will be kicked out of the competition. The winner will continue to stay on the field until a team of contestants are completely eliminated. The last person to stay on the field will be the winner.”
“Next, each society will send out a contestant.”
BANG!
Earth-shattering cheers immediately sounded from the stands.
Under everyone’s gaze, Chen Xin stood up from her seat and slowly walked onto the arena. The Heart Society’s member opposite her was also a second-year student. Everyone had expected such a situation. After all, in such a competition, both teams would send the weakest up first.
Firstly, they wanted to see how strong the other party was.
Secondly, they wanted the experts to be at the back so that they could react at any time.
Walking onto the arena, Chen Xin immediately released her Herculean Infant Dragon.
“A high-level Rank-1 Herculean Infant Dragon.”
On the other side, Lin Bin sneered and summoned his pet.
A black python more than 30 feet long with wings on its back appeared in front of them.
A snake with wings. It was a low-level Rank-2 pet. Lin Bin must be very capable to be sent to participate in such a large-scale competition. He also had a Rank-2 pet, but now, he clearly looked down on Chen Xin.
Seeing this, Chen Xin made up her mind and ordered the Herculean Infant Dragon to attack. The outcome could be predicted.
In just two minutes, the bloodied Herculean Infant Dragon was recalled by Chen Xin.
“Lin Bin wins.” The members of Heart Society gloated.
Chen Xin left the arena dejectedly and sat back in the Rose Society’s seat. “I’m sorry, Senior.”
“It’s fine. You’ve done everything you can.” Xu Menghan comforted Chen Xin before turning her gaze to Ye Fan.
“Junior Brother Ye Fan, sorry to trouble you.” Ye Fan didn’t say anything. He directly nodded and walked towards the arena.
