Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After the battle ended, Lu Yue became the center of attention.
The eyes of the spectating commanders lit up.
Although the ones participating in the competition were all freshmen, those who could come were the elites of the combat faculty of their academy.
There was no lack of new talents with great potential among them.
Lu Yue’s performance had already attracted their attention.
They were all experienced frontline warriors and could tell at a glance that he was using an extremely difficult sword move.
He had already become a hot commodity in the eyes of these commanders.
The students from the other participating classes suddenly realized why Star City Academy’s Combat Class Three dared to participate with just ten people.
Among the participants from the various academies, there were many elites from domain combat teams like the Xia brothers and Yan Yue, but Lu Yue was the only one who had cultivated sword force.
The audience was suddenly filled with anticipation for his next performance.
“Lu Yue, you’re forcing me to give you full marks!” Looking at Lu Yue walking towards him, Lin Ran teased with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yue shook his head indifferently.
“1 am never pretentious.”
Immediately, boos sounded from the surroundings.
“Good job. Continue pretending later. Do so ruthlessly!” Feng Qi grinned.
Lu Yue opened his mouth and said,
“I’ll… try my best.”
At this moment, the announcement sounded again. Everyone’s attention was focused on the arena.
Next was Group C’s match.
It was a match between Future Academy’s Combat Class Six and Victory Academy’s Combat Class.
Although Victory Academy only had one class participating, these 60 people were all elites among elites. This class was also the popular seeded class for the championship of this year’s competition.
In this match, Victory Academy’s performance caused an uproar.
As soon as the battle began, Victory Academy displayed extremely outstanding chemistry. This battle could be described as a clean sweep.
Especially the team leader, an ordinary-looking student wearing glasses.
His spiritual talisman combat technique was so showy that it made one’s scalp tingle.
As a spiritual cultivator, he took the initiative to charge with the team. Facing the three main tanks, he dodged nimbly and unhurriedly. At the same time, he used his Spiritual Qi to outline spiritual talismans. Each talisman could take down an opponent.
In the end, the match ended in less than ten minutes.
Victory Academy’s combat class obtained the right to qualify in Group C with an absolute advantage.
Then it was Group D, Group E, and Group F’s matches.
Group D’s match was an internal battle for Star City Academy. In the end, Class Six won.
The Star City Academy’s combat faculty was not famous to begin with. Their performance in this match was mediocre, but the audience was very enthusiastic, they warming applauded the winning class.
The more outstanding performances was Group F’s match.
Winter Academy’s Combat Class used a valiant combat method to demonstrate what boorish fighting was.
As the most popular team anticipated to win the championship,
there was actually not a single spiritual cultivator in the entire team of Combat Class One. They were all strong men.
The leader led the team into the battle formation of Former Days’ Combat Class Seven and knocked all the opponents to the ground in an extremely violent manner.
Winter Academy had another characteristic.
Their students were very ruthless. They beat several opponent students until they could not stand up and completely passed out.
The qualifying top six classes were out.
It was noon and the break was about to begin.
During this period, the busiest people were the medical teams outside the arena. They kept carrying the injured away for emergency treatment.
As for the students who were slightly injured, they were sent to the recuperation chambers of Victory Academy to undergo physical treatment so that they could recover and continue the battle in the afternoon.
After lunch, Feng Qi brought the students back to the preparation area at the side of the arena and sat down.
The two sides of the arena were filled with students from Victory Academy. Even the aisles of the seats were full of students who had come to watch the battle.
With the home ground advantage, when the members of the Victory Academy’s combat class arrived at the preparation area, the entire venue erupted into tsunami-like cheers.
“Brother Qi, if we win Victory Academy here, we’ll get beaten up, won’t we?” Lin Ran leaned over and said.
When Feng Qi heard that, he smiled calmly.
“When the time comes, you take the rear. We’ll run first.”
“I’ll protect all of you.” At this moment, Mu Qing raised her fist and said seriously.
“No, Senior Sister Mu Qing, you’re too scary. I’d rather be beaten up than become a murderer,” Lin Ran admitted decisively.
Half an hour later, the referee appeared.
An announcement sounded immediately after.
“Winter Academy’s Combat Class Three, go to the arena and prepare for battle.”
“Star Academy’s Combat Class Three, go to the arena and prepare for battle.”
Feng Qi looked at Lu Yue and the others who had already stood up and said,
“All the best.”
“Brother Qi, don’t worry. We will definitely win,” Xu Hongyun replied seriously.
A moment later, both participating teams arrived at the arena.
The referee simply repeated the rules and left the arena.
The two teams retreated to both sides of the arena.
Accompanied by the sound of the signal gun, the match was about to begin.
The students of Winter Academy’s Combat Class Three had already realized how terrifying Lu Yue was from their first match. The warriors in the front row immediately lined up, wanting to use a human wall to block Lu Yue’s sword energy attack.
The support personnel at the back quickly outlined spells and condensed several Spiritual Qi barriers in front of the team formation.
“Lu Yue, can you do it alone? If you can, we won’t go,” the monk said.
“I’ll try.”
As Lu Yue spoke, he took a step forward, and sword energy gradually condensed.
With a wave of his hand, cold sword energy surrounded his body and crisscrossed, leaving sword marks on the ground.
Seeing Lu Yue walk over alone, the students of Winter Combat Class Three were furious. Even though they knew that Lu Yue was powerful, they still felt that this was a provocation..
