Chapter 84 Xu Zhaoting's Helplessness
"Xu Zhaoting?" Seeing that Xu Zhaoting didn't respond, the girl called out again.
After a long while, Xu Zhaoting finally came to his senses, his face still showing shock. The girl asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"
"No...nothing, I was just a little surprised to see this guy," Xu Zhaoting said slowly.
"So you know him? But aren't you from Bo City? Does that mean he's from Bo City too?"
"Well, that guy is also from Bocheng and he's my old classmate. I didn't expect him to come to our Lei Academy. But since he's here, why haven't I seen him during this time?" Xu Zhaoting said, his brows furrowed as if he was thinking about something.
"An old classmate? I haven't seen him at Lei Academy. I guess he's busy cultivating and doesn't come out much. After all, there aren't many people as talented as you," the girl said with a smile.
Xu Zhaoting smiled bitterly and said, "I have talent? Heh, that's because you haven't seen his strength. If you had seen his strength, you wouldn't say that. Among the students in my year, I'm not the most talented one. He and Mo Fan from the Summoning Department are the most talented. No, to be precise, Mo Fan's talent is weaker than his."
"He became a mid-level mage in high school. When we were practicing Star Control, that guy could solo a War General-level Bone Spike Wolf outside the safety barrier. Compared to him, my talent is nothing. I guess that guy's strength must be even greater. I'll go say hello to him. You wait here for me." Xu Zhaoting said, walking towards Jiang Han's position.
After Jiang Han sat down, he released Xue Ling from the system space to let her get some fresh air, completely unaware of Xu Zhaoting sitting in front of him.
"Jiang Han, which class are you in at Lei Academy? I've never seen you before," Xu Zhaoting said with a smile as he walked over.
Jiang Han glanced at Xu Zhaoting walking over, paused slightly, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional when he thought of Xu Zhaoting's ending in the original work. "For the sake of our classmate relationship, I definitely won't let you have a tragic ending like in the original work."
"Oh, it's you. It's normal that you haven't seen me before, since I reported late. As for my class? I was assigned to the main campus, but I don't remember which class it was," Jiang Han replied with a smile.
You truly are a prodigy. We were both freshmen, but we were in the Youth Campus while you went to the main campus as soon as you entered the school.
To be honest, when Jiang Han awakened his dual lightning and ice elements, Xu Zhaoting was still somewhat unconvinced. He felt that as long as he cultivated diligently, surpassing Jiang Han was only a matter of time. However, after his experience in the wild, he realized that he could not compare with Jiang Han in terms of realm, temperament, or talent. He felt a sense of powerlessness, like "Why did Heaven create both Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang?"
"The competition is about to start, and my friend is waiting for me up ahead. If you need any help, just let me know."
"Okay, keep in touch if anything comes up," Jiang Han nodded and said.
Xu Zhaoting exchanged a few more words with Jiang Han before turning around and returning to his seat. As soon as Xu Zhaoting left, the nearby students started discussing it, all quite curious as to why Jiang Han was sitting in their Thunder Academy's designated spot.
"Xu Zhaoting from Class 2 actually knows that silver-haired youth. It seems they have a pretty good relationship."
"Huh? Shouldn't our focus be on the summoning creatures? Why are we all talking about that silver-haired youth?"
"Yeah, we've gotten a bit off-topic. By the way, have you found out anything about those seven summoning-type summons?"
"Well, I've found out pretty much everything. Hai Dafu's summoned beast is a White Armored War Snake, whose combat power is comparable to that of an adult demon. Zheng Bingxiao's is a Rock Mage, a summoned beast with considerable strength and defense. Oh, right, I almost forgot there's also a Bone Eater in the Summoning class."
"I think it was Wang Liting's summoned beast, but the one under the Bone Eater is not to be trifled with, it's ruthless and murderous."
"There's also a summoned beast named Mo Fan that I still haven't found out. I guess he's not a very powerful character. We'll just pick on the weak one. As long as we agree to their request, one of the academies will receive a big reward."
Hearing someone treat Mo Fan like an easy target, Jiang Han almost burst out laughing. Just before the Beast Fighting Tournament began, Dean Xiao was required to deliver a welcome speech to the new students on behalf of the academy. Sitting on the high platform, Dean Xiao said in a deep voice, "Before my speech, I want to make something clear to you. If you only want to be respected in society, earn a high salary, and enjoy a luxurious life as a magician, then I must tell you responsibly that you have come to the wrong place."
"The magicians who graduate from Pearl Academy are destined to change the world, destined to be heroes who can shoulder the mission of protecting humanity. We do not lack wealth or fame; what we lack is an eternal heart that pursues the highest magic!"
"Today is the day for you to show your strength. Please welcome our seven main characters, the new students of the Summoning Department."
While Dean Xiao was giving his speech, Jiang Han casually crossed his legs and rubbed Xue Ling in his arms, looking drowsy. For some reason, Jiang Han felt sleepy during the speech of such a top figure.
Perhaps Dean Xiao's words were too hypnotic, because Jiang Han didn't know why the others were so excited.
"Do you think summoners aren't worthy of being the main characters today? Then defeat them and you will be the main characters today!" Dean Xiao encouraged loudly.
"So, who from your Summoning Department wants to come?" Dean Xiao looked at the seven people from the Summoning Department.
Hai Dafu, who was walking at the front, said loudly, "I'll go first. Aren't these guys all trying to make a name for themselves by using our summoned beasts? Today I'm going to beat them all down and make them kneel down and sing 'Conquer' to me, hahaha."
"Good, young man, you have guts. I'll leave this place to you from now on."
After Dean Xiao finished speaking, Hai Dafu strode towards the center of the arena. At the entrance of the iron cage barrier, a long line of people who wanted to challenge him had already formed, all eager to fight.
"Go Hai Dafu! Go Hai Dafu!"
"Go for it, Hai Dafu!" the remaining six members of the Summoning system cheered loudly.
As soon as Hai Dafu stepped into the center of the arena, some students couldn't resist making a move. A gust of sand blew towards Hai Dafu, and after the sandstorm passed, Hai Dafu shouted, "You trash over there, come at me all at once, so as not to waste my time."
"You brat, what are you so arrogant about? Believe me or not, I can wipe out your summoned beast in one move." A boy with spiky hair said, clearly annoyed.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go."
Looking at the few students rushing up, Hai Dafu sneered, "These few are not even enough to fill the gaps in my summoned beast's teeth."
After Hai Dafu finished speaking, he began to connect the star trails, and a moon-white radiance flickered around him. Under Hai Dafu's mental control, a dimensional star trail was formed, which tore through space and connected to the dimensional plane. Before long, a dark and cold aura surged out from the dimensional rift, and finally, several cracks appeared on the ground. In an instant, a body of steel emerged from the dusty, gray dust. Its shoulders, back, and limbs were covered with sharp white ridges, as if its entire body was a weapon.
"Hiss~~~~~~~!!"
The white-armored war serpent let out a loud cry, scaring the students who were rushing towards it into scattering and fleeing. The short-haired youth at the front turned pale as soon as he saw the white-armored war serpent and shouted in terror, "Damn it, it's a white-armored war serpent!"
