"All right, that's not something you need to worry about. Just focus on winning the championship!"
Qin Tian smiled, then as if remembering something, asked, "Did you see through Sinclair's identity on the stage?"
"Huh? No," Chen Shu paused slightly, then shook his head.
Qin Tian continued, "Then did you kill his contracted spirit right there?"
"Wasn't that a fierce beast?" Chen Shu replied, not quite understanding Qin Tian's meaning.
"Can you tell the difference between a contracted spirit and a fierce beast?" Qin Tian raised an eyebrow. The difference between the two was actually not significant. In fact, many people's contracted spirits could be found in their species within another dimension.
"Is that difficult?" Chen Shu shrugged and said, "I saw the pearl inside that winged lion's body at the time..."
"..."
The corners of both their mouths twitched. They recalled that the winged lion's abdomen had indeed been cut open by a giant wind blade that day.
However, the problem was that the two sides were a considerable distance apart, and the flesh was mangled. Could a person see that clearly?
After a while, Qin Tian said, "You should go back and get some good rest."
Chen Shu nodded, then looked at the two of them again and said earnestly, "Principal, Teacher, thank you..."
"Hmm?"
The two were slightly stunned. They hadn't expected the notorious troublemaker to say such a thing.
Chen Shu continued, "Because of you, it warmed my..."
*Bang!*
Qin Tian directly kicked him off the rooftop, no longer able to hold back his composure.
Chen Shu patted the dust off himself and shouted, "No... I wasn't finished speaking..."
"Oh, just forget it!" Qin Tian muttered to himself, a slight smile appearing on his face.
Seeing that he received no response, Chen Shu turned and returned to his room.
Qin Tian looked towards the competition stage in the center of the island and mused, "The World Championship is nearing its end. I hope everything goes smoothly."
Liu Feng nodded and said, "Let's hope so..."
...
Time gradually passed, and it was already early September.
Everything on Origin Island was exceptionally calm, with no disturbances. At the same time, specialized personnel had been continuously repairing the protective devices on the combat positions, and they were finally completed.
"A Liang, today is your match." Chen Shu looked at the three of them and said, "Strive to reach the finals."
Due to the previous accident, A Liang and the others' semifinals were delayed and only reopened now.
"We'll do our best!" A Liang nodded. Their opponents were from the Black Iron group of Lan Country, and their strength should not be underestimated.
The group left their accommodation and headed for the competition stage. After many days, global broadcasting resumed. Billions of viewers, due to the delayed match and the lack of any explanation from the organizers, had harbored dissatisfaction. However, the moment they saw the match about to begin, all their dissatisfaction was cast aside, replaced by excitement. Although it was a little late, it was at least happening.
"Fight well!" Liu Feng patted A Liang's shoulder, his eyes filled with anticipation.
At this moment, the announcer's voice could already be heard from the competition stage, "Now, please welcome the team from Hua Country and the team from Lan Country!"
A Liang and the other two adjusted their attire and calmly walked onto the stage. Simultaneously, from the other side of the competition stage, the three from Lan Country also walked up. The two sides were silent, but their eyes were filled with fighting spirit, and they were already eager.
"Please proceed to your respective combat positions!"
A Liang and his companions, after being inspected by two King-level Beast Tamers, proceeded to their combat positions. Although the protective devices had been repaired, the spatial energy on them was gone. Naturally, the King-level Beast Tamers had to inspect them carefully to prevent A Liang and the others from cheating.
The three exchanged glances, their right hands instinctively moving to their left shoulders, but then they immediately took them down. From the very beginning of the match, Qin Tian had warned them not to wear eccentric clothing, such as psychiatric patient uniforms... But as their team uniform, how could they easily compromise? A Liang and the other two took a firm stance, informing Qin Tian that if they couldn't wear it, they would have to wear the patient uniforms, and then, underneath... they wore nothing, only a thin black jacket as they stepped onto the stage...
*Roar!*
At this moment, the three from Lan Country had already summoned their contracted spirits. Surprisingly, they still had six S-rank contracted spirits. Their potential ratings were not high, but their combat power was astonishingly strong.
"Full power battle!" A Liang and the other two also summoned their contracted spirits.
The barrier between the two sides was removed, and the battle officially began!
*Chirp chirp chirp~~*
Snowball still released ice and snow skills first, covering the entire competition stage. Its skill range was practically terrifying, and its release speed was incredibly fast, comparable to a Black Iron-level Husky.
Below, Liu Feng, sitting in his wheelchair, asked, "Chen Pi, if your Husky and A Liang's Snowball were at the same level, who would be stronger?"
"Is there even a need to ask?" Chen Shu shrugged and said, "As everyone knows, Snowball is also known as Little Husky."
"..." Liu Feng nodded. It did make some sense. Although Snowball's strength was astonishing, it hadn't reached the Silver level yet and couldn't fight across major levels.
"However, Snowball is a bit lacking in all aspects. Actually, there's one thing that can completely blow Husky out of the water."
"Impossible!" Chen Shu shook his head and said, "Skill level, personal stats, release speed, there's not one aspect it's weak in."
"Intelligence?"
"??" Chen Shu's expression instantly stiffened. He felt as if all the words he wanted to say were choked back.
After a moment, he said, "Teacher Liu, if you put it that way, then I really... have no way to refute you."
"..."
While the two were conversing, the battle on the stage had already become incredibly fierce. Snowball was still displaying its might, using various ice and snow skills, instantly becoming the most eye-catching presence on the field!
*Whoosh whoosh whoosh—*
A large amount of ice and snow piled up again, sealing all six contracted spirits. However, the three from Lan Country did not panic. Instead, they let A Liang and the others unleash their skills.
*Roar!*
In an instant, the Thunder Ape let out a fierce roar, its entire body enveloped in dazzling lightning. Wang Jue's Blue Genie immediately cast several support skills, amplifying the Thunder Ape's lightning attribute.
*Sizzling—*
A ball of lightning instantly attacked, integrating into a large amount of ice and snow. A Liang, fully focused, used lightning skills and ice and snow skills to quickly condense a pool of lightning.
However, at this moment, one of Lan Country's blue flying fish had a glow in its eyes and instantly unleashed a skill. Its mouth slightly opened, and it continuously spat out several blue lightning bubbles.
*Pop pop—*
The bubbles enveloped all six contracted spirits, and the surrounding lightning was easily blocked.
"Hmm?" A Liang's expression stiffened, then became extremely solemn. The six contracted spirits below had actually isolated the damage from the lightning pool and were not affected by any paralysis.
ps: Only two chapters today, I need to rest.
