Chapter 250: Group Competition, Begin! (Second Update)

Mentor Ma asked, but his gaze was fixed on the four reserve members, as well as a tool person who was nominally chosen but was actually a substitute.

“Instructor, I’ll go.”

Su Hao put down his cell phone and said, “Now that my identity is a substitute, it wouldn’t make sense if I didn’t go on stage, right?”

Mentor Ma nodded. “Your consideration is right. How about this, you’ll be the first one to battle tomorrow?”

“Sure, sure.”

“Remember not to let Butterfly Fairy go on stage.”

“Of course, of course.”

The other four naturally became substitutes.

In fact, the trump cards of the substitutes were also extraordinary. It wasn’t strange for one sprite to defeat an ordinary school team.

But…

Basically, no one would do that.

That was wasteful!

“Even for those with capability to become members of the school teams in ordinary universities, their ace sprites will also be ranked in the upper-middle class among the elite-level limits, and possess their own unique battle methods.”

What did that mean?

It meant precious experiences!

“In terms of a single ace sprite, they may not be inferior to the main force or even the trump cards of the special training camp members. The top students of ordinary universities are often only able to concentrate their resources to nurture an elite-level limit sprite. Thus, they are unable to construct a complete team battle system.”

Su Hao rarely had the opportunity to battle the members from the special training camp.

Now, there were many strong and suppressive contestants in the league… Cough, with so many rare opportunities in front of him, how could he miss them?

“I can fight 26 rounds in the group battle, five sprites per round… No, I can’t count it that way, I can only send one sprite to the stage, if I lose, others will use it as an experience, but at least I have already gained a lot of experience before losing!’

Thinking about it this way, participating in the league was indeed a very correct decision.

And he must participate this year!

After all, by the next batch, the Dazed Crow, the Big Fat Bear, and the Dumb Unicorn would definitely have reached extraordinary evel. By then, it would be useless to farm elite-level experience anymore.

To him, the value of the league would also be low.

…

The next day, at the third venue.

Su Hao and the others came to the venue’s lounge to wait.

Their battle with the Vine Demon University was the second battle in the morning.

The first was Eastwood University vs Fairy Snail University.

Su Hao had some impressions of Eastwood University. It was a university in Tiannan Province.

As for Fairy Snail University… Which province was it in?

At this moment…

The first few team members of the two schools appeared. They stood on the command tower and summoned their sprites.

As water dragons and vines collided, the waves washed the huge rocks away.

“The reason why Fairy Snail University is named after sprites is that they have a very complete Fairy Snail cultivation system and a small sea snail cultivation base… They also have their own unique points in the development of water-element unique skills.”

There were outstanding aspects in ordinary universities too. Su Hao looked and nodded from time to time.

In particular, the five members of the Fairy Snail University team were all young ladies in short skirts. They were pretty good-looking, so Su Hao decisively stood on the side of Fairy Snail University to cheer them on.

So…

Fairy Snail University lost.

“Looks like their hard power is limited. They still lost even with my mental support.”

…

After the first round, the staff members cleaned the venue. If they spotted any potholes, they would summon earth-element sprites to fill them up immediately.

The second round started very soon.

“First member of Whale Island University and Vine Demon University, please get ready.”

The judge at the side of the arena said.

In the lounge, Su Hao looked at his sprites and was a little hesitant.

“Junior, don’t be nervous. Sister will cheer you on,” said a senior whose name he couldn’t remember.

Su Hao was rendered speechless.

“No, I’m just hesitating. Which sprite should I farm experience for?”

He looked at the Big Fat Bear.

The Big Fat Bear immediately laid down flat, rolled left and right, rolled back and forth, and made “sob sob” sounds.

He then looked at the Dazed Crow. Flames burned in its eyes. Sparks flew with a wave of its wings.

“Dumb Unicorn then.”

The Dazed Crow was stunned for a moment before raising its blade to point at the Dumb Unicorn. However, it only managed to see the back of the Dumb Unicorn as it ran out of the lounge.

“Squawk?”

…

On the battlefield, Su Hao climbed each step of the stairs and ascended the seven to eight-meter-high command tower

In front of the high platform was a protective layer that was difficult to see with the naked eye. It could protect Sprite Trainers from being affected by the aftershock.

Opposite him, about 100 to 200 meters away, was another command tower. A young man stood on it.

“Now, both contestants, please summon your sprites at the same time, 3, 2, 1… Summon!”

The judge waved the flag down.

In front of Su Hao and Vine Demon University’s first contestant, ripples appeared outside the command towers at the same time.

The figures of the two sprites appeared in mid-air. Then they suddenly landed on the ground.

“The other party’s sprite is indeed a Vine Demon.”

The Vine Demon evolved from the Vine Snake. In a sense, it could also be considered a human-shaped sprite.

There was an obvious head, torso, and limbs.

It was just that its head was big, its body was fat, and its legs were short. Its body was wrapped by vines with flowers growing out of them, and its eyes were hidden deep under the vines.

Once the Vine Demon landed on the stage, its vines extended and immediately took root on the ground.

The battle had begun.

…

In the broadcasting hall, Huang Tianlei and Si Yuerong, two famous commentators, had just explained a battle.

“Now, let’s look and see what exciting battles there are.”

At this point, it was only the early stages of the group battle. There were many battles being fought at the same time. Of course, not all battles could be shown on screen, and not all battles were worthy of the commentators’ special explanation.

“What, Whale Island University’s competition has begun. Let’s transfer the scene to Whale Island University.”

The female commentator, Si Yuerong, said with a pleasant voice.

As an experienced commentator, she knew which battles were what the audience would love to watch.

For example, Whale Island University, one of the three prestigious universities. Even if they were just bullying noobs, the audience would still accept it. The improvement in viewership ratings was far better than the even fight between two unknown universities.

The scene of venue three appeared on the screen. Two sprites were summoned.

Huang Tianlei picked up the information. “The first contestant of Whale Island University is Su Hao, a first-year student.”

“The first contestant of the Vine Demon University is Zhao Yingxun, a fourth-year student. At the same time, he’s also the captain of the school team.”

“Let’s analyze the sprites of both parties,” Si Yuerong said. “Mr. Zhao Yingxun’s sprite is a Vine Demon. Do you see those green-purple vines? We can speculate that those vines contain poison, and it’s a sprite that can’t be underestimated.”

“And Mr. Su Hao’s sprite…” She paused for a moment.

Huang Tianlei took over and said, “That’s a Water Cloud Horse, just merely an evolved form… Mr. Su Hao’s choice seems a little unwise.”

He continued, “There’s a Flaming Spirit Crow among Mr. Su Hao’s sprites. In my opinion, if we send out that Flaming Spirit Crow and make use of the attribute restraint advantage, his chances of winning would be pretty high, but the Water Cloud Horse’s attributes and form are all disadvantages…”

“Of course, Su Hao must have summoned the Water Cloud Horse to train his sprite. Regardless of the outcome, it doesn’t matter to Whale Island University.”

At this moment, Si Yuerong said, “I saw an audience asking, that Water Cloud Horse has scales on its body. Tianlei, what do you think about this?”

Huang Tianlei smiled and said, “That’s a mutation. It could be inherited from the previous generation of sprites, or it could have grown scales under some kind of opportunity… But no matter how mutated it is, it’s only at its first-stage of evolution. There’s a relatively clear difference between it and the Vine Demon.”

“In that case, Tianlei, you’re optimistic about Zhao Yingxun?”

“Of course, the only thing I’m not sure about right now is how long that Water Cloud Horse can last.”

…

On the battlefield, Zhao Yingxun couldn’t help but smile when he saw that his opponent was the Water Cloud Horse.

Among the 108 universities, Vine Demon University was considered below average. As the team leader, he was under a lot of pressure.

Especially after knowing that his first opponent was Whale Island University, he felt much more bitter and worried.

Losing was inevitable.

But they couldn’t lose too badly. If they did, it was very likely to affect the whole team’s morale.

“At first, I thought that it would be pretty good if I didn’t get defeated by just one sprite, but now it looks like I have a chance to win first! No, not just a chance, my chances of winning are very high!”

Zhao Yingxun was excited.

Even Su Hao sensed that burning gaze. He couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable. “You, a man, is actually coveting my body? No way…”

He couldn’t stand this grievance!

He looked down and issued an order with the contract. “We can’t dawdle anymore! Dumb Unicorn, use the Mist Field!”

With a “Neighhh”, it stepped on the air and approached the Vine Demon.

At the same time, waves of mist spread, gradually gathering into water droplets, dropping down drop by drop.

On the opposite side.

Zhao Yingxun also gave an order. “Construct Vine Castle!”

The Vine Demon rooted itself in place and didn’t move. The ground cracked a few meters around it, and vines broke out of the ground.
