Chapter 2 In the Arena

At the referee's call, Class 2 finally entered the arena, their opponents being Class 7 of the same grade.

Jiang Xiao's good mood had been somewhat spoiled before his first match. On the way in, they happened to pass Class 1 leaving the arena, and Gao Junchen glared fiercely at Jiang Xiao.

If looks could kill, Jiang Xiao would have died a thousand times over.

"I heard that kid is your brother?" A burly boy from the Class 1 senior group asked.

Han Jiangxue didn't respond.

"Hehe, kids always like to fool around. When the time comes, I'll stop Chen." Gao Junwei smiled, comforting Han Jiangxue beside him.

Xia Yan couldn't help but taunt, "You're very confident?"

"I know my brother's strength. I heard Jiang Xiaopi is a healing-type Awakened, but he has fewer Star Slots, so his potential isn't very high." Gao Junwei said with a smile, "Healing-type Awakeners are a weak group at this stage, not to mention he only has 9 Star Slots. If necessary, I'll call Chen to stop."

"No need to stop." Han Jiangxue said lightly, "Since he chose to enter the arena, there's no need to hold back."

"You can't say that. Don't be so willful, Han Jiangxue." Gao Junwei advised, "You have to let him get a point or two, save some face for Jiang Xiaopi."

"Oh? Your teammates are strong, huh? Jiang Xiaopi is holding onto those coattails well. He hasn't even made a move." Gao Junwei raised his eyebrows, looking thoughtfully at the Flat-Top Brothers. Even though these two kids were only in their first year, their skills clearly showed they had a solid foundation.

Indeed, Jiang Xiao's team entered the arena and set up a fairly standard 2-1-1 formation, a "T" shape.

The Flat-Top Brothers stood side by side in the front, Elena was in the center, and Jiang Xiao brought up the rear.

Class 7's lineup was three melee fighters and one ranged attacker. The three melee fighters lined up and directly confronted the Flat-Top Brothers without any fancy maneuvers.

Elena concentrated her Star Technique, Bursting Flames, and continued to deal damage.

Jiang Xiaopi, with his decent skills, was supposed to be the rearguard, but it seemed he wasn't needed in this match.

The children's Star Power was weak at this stage, they had few Star Techniques, and their coordination was limited.

The Flat-Top Brothers, with their powerful skills, directly knocked down one child after a few rounds against Class 7's three melee fighters.

They couldn't win even with three against two, and 2v2 was even worse.

The team, already lacking in experience, immediately revealed many flaws. The brothers were separated and went into their own individual fights.

Elena was left to trade blows with the opponent's magic-type attacker, and Jiang Xiao found himself rather idle.

The Flat-Top Brothers quickly defeated their respective opponents. Although Elena was still throwing fireballs with the opposing magic-type attacker, the last member of Class 7 had no choice but to concede, seeing the situation on the field.

Class 2 won their first match without a fight, and cheers erupted as they returned to their class.

"Victory achieved! Skill Point +1."

Jiang Xiao was stunned. This level of competition even gave Skill Points?

Jiang Xiao had basically spectated the entire child's play-like match.

He was like an audience member, except other audience members watched the match from the stands, while Jiang Xiao watched the match from inside the arena.

And he even got a Skill Point for it?

Goodness, that's amazing...

"Xiaopi, what are you thinking about? Were you sleepwalking on the field just now?" Liu Ke ran over and patted Jiang Xiao on the shoulder.

"I wasn't sleepwalking. I was protecting my three teammates the whole time. They're too strong. I didn't even have a chance to heal them," Jiang Xiao said.

"Why didn't you go up and help Elena fight that magic-type attacker?" Liu Ke said dissatisfied.

"I thought they were having fun. Those fireballs were bursting open, crackling like firecrackers," Jiang Xiao scratched his head.

"Hey? You." Liu Ke immediately became angry.

"Liu Ke, I was the commander on the field. I told Jiang Xiao not to move," Da Ge (Big Brother) Zhu Wen explained.

"Why did you do that?" Liu Ke asked in confusion.

"We're trying to hide Jiang Xiao's strength. Don't forget, our goal isn't to be the best in this grade, but to challenge the senior bullies." Zhu Wen leaned down and said quietly.

"Come on, Jiang Xiaopi's actions in the storage room have probably spread," Liu Ke said dismissively.

"It doesn't matter if it's spread. To the school bullies, Jiang Xiaopi is just a freshman. As long as they don't see Jiang Xiaopi really make a move, we'll have a chance to catch them off guard," Zhu Wen whispered.

"Catch them off guard? You're probably too confident in Jiang Xiaopi's strength. The school bullies don't care about your surprises. There's a qualitative difference in strength..."

Elena put her arm around Liu Ke, and due to the height difference, she directly pressed Liu Ke's little head against her chest, "We won. You're not congratulating us, and you're saying discouraging things."

"Mmm..." Liu Ke's face turned red instantly, and she quickly pushed Elena away, lowering her head.

That cute appearance melted Er Ge (Second Brother) Zhu Wen, and he almost couldn't stand steady, turning into a puddle of mud.

"It seems like my little buzz-cut god didn't have a chance to show off?" Su Rou said sadly, holding her phone.

Lines of comments scrolled across the screen:

"These noobs have no coordination. The formation was good at the beginning, but then they all scattered."

"Judging from the formation, the buzz-cut bro is at the end of the team. Not making a move means he's not a ranged attacker. I guess he's also a melee combat type, and his role is to protect that foreign chick. I wonder what his Star Chart is."

"Sigh... In so many matches, I've only seen 2 or 3 magic-types reveal their Star Charts. I haven't seen a single melee Awakener's Star Chart."

"This is the Beijiang Province high school competition. The basic techniques of the melee types are mostly Qing Mang (Azure Radiance), so there's no need to reveal the Star Chart."

"It's different for magic-types. If you don't reveal the Star Chart, the speed and power of Star Technique condensation and release will be greatly reduced."

"Why are the comments so serious? Didn't you guys see that beautiful foreigner?"

"Too tall. I'm not interested in Western women."

"I heard foreigners have a really strong body odor."

"Yes, yes, and their skin is especially bad."

"I love my right hand."

"..."

Su Rou suddenly said, "Hey, look, my little buzz-cut is on the field again. The opponent... four melee fighters? Shouldn't they change their formation?"

Three minutes later, more and more comments appeared:

"Wow, those two brick heads are really fierce. Are they from a martial arts family?"

"No wonder they're brothers. This tacit understanding, this cooperation, is simply invincible!"

"The Brick Brothers are carrying the team. They're fearless in a 2v4 team fight!"

"Shocking! A couple sees campus violence and does nothing, actually standing by and flirting!"

"Shocking! Little buzz-cut transforms into a lustful monk, flirting with a foreign woman."

"Shocking! Two brothers bravely resist campus bullying, their heads are actually smashed into bricks!"

"Shocking! A couple edges the OB beatdown incident, with no sympathy!"

"Shocking! Shock... Holy crap!? Healing type!?"

Suddenly, at that moment, the comments in Su Rou's livestream exploded.

"Holy crap! Beijiang divine skill *Blessing*!?"

"Healing-type god!?"

"I'll go to your mom, healing type!? This bastard is actually a healing-type Awakened!"

"This little buzz-cut is actually a healing-type Awakened?"

"I might be... in love."

Plans never keep up with changes. Since he received the healing order from Flat-Top Da Ge, Jiang Xiao, of course, didn't refuse.

On the field, two dreamlike holy lights suddenly descended.

The four students, panting and covered in sweat,

Saw Flat-Top Da Ge, transformed and full of energy, and Flat-Top Er Ge, as if injected with chicken blood.

But that wasn't the most terrifying thing.

The most terrifying thing was,

The brothers' identical, sexy vocalizations...

Deep and seductive voices, impacting the opponents' young and fragile hearts, echoing in their ears, refusing to dissipate for a long time...
