Chapter 150: The Freshmen’s Victory
There was no so-called surveillance footage on the spectator stand.
Like the freshmen, the instructors needed to use their eyes to observe the battle.
But it was different.
The instructors summoned their respective sprites and used various Sprite Commandeering methods to investigate.
Behind Heavenly King Wu, the silk threads on the trading puppet’s hands jumped. Countless scenes were transmitted to his eyes through visual sharing.
It made him click his tongue in wonder.
“It can actually recruit so many newbie sprites. As expected of the student I fancy… Wait!”
Without batting an eyelid, he glanced at Muscle Tu and the other Heavenly Kings, feeling that things weren’t looking too good.
The more outstanding Little Su was, the more attention he would attract, right?
He coughed dryly and said, “I think that the main reason it could combine so many sprites was due to timely coincidence.”
“The students of our Whale Island are all G.o.d’s favored, the most elite of all, looking down on others. But those ‘ordinary’ students are also prominent figures at the high school stage. They all have pride. They clearly know that they should join forces, but they can’t swallow their pride.”
Just like the small groups the freshmen formed, there were at most a dozen or so people.
Some of them were acquaintances to begin with.
It’s not that their organization ability is poor, but… we are all privileged people, why should we obey your commands?
“Sprites are different,” Heavenly King Wu said. “Sprites themselves are innocent. If they can’t win, they can only join if they don’t want to be eliminated. The whole battle team is like a s...o...b..ll rolling, getting bigger and bigger… But one of the important reasons is still the tacit approval of those freshmen.”
Some of the new students didn’t realize the situation.
But as time pa.s.sed, many people still discovered some clues.
However…
They couldn’t win, and if they defected, they would be beaten up by other sprites. Most importantly, Reverie b.u.t.terfly’s words “everyone can make contributions to succeed” moved them.
Thinking about it carefully, most of their sprites were cannon fodders. The challenge segment was just a stage for a small number of people to perform.
It was all thanks to the help of others, including a bit of their own work, but anything would be better than being defeated by the enemy.
As a result, when those relatively ‘ordinary’ new students learned of the situation, they also half-heartedly allowed their sprites to join the battle team.
Well… I still have to work harder.
They had to work hard to get the a.s.sist.
Top freshmen, like the boy in white’s Ice Six Tails, would rather die than submit, so they died bravely.
There were also a few like Killer Mantis who surrendered without hesitation.
The battle team grew larger and larger. Everywhere it pa.s.sed, it was either defeated or incorporated.
This made many teachers on the spectator stand dumbstruck.
“It’s indeed the right time,” said the Heavenly King of the Vast Ocean, Wei Mingyuan. “But it’s precisely because this opportunity is rare that it can highlight Mr. Su Hao’s excellence. He must have long planned to use sprites as a bond in the simulation battlefield to ally with others.”
“That’s right.” Heavenly King of the Wind, Yu Hongfei also nodded. “He has an ace sprite with extraordinary strength and is proficient in illusion spells. After the first batch of sprites were eliminated to highlight the brutality, it started to incorporate an elite-level Killer Mantis and set an example to lower the likelihood of resistance of other sprites.”
“Step by step, it looks simple, but in fact, as long as there’s a mistake in one segment, the battle team won’t be able to progress… This student’s plan is not so simple after all.”
He was very emotional.
In the end, Heavenly King Bu concluded, “He has strength and knows strategy. He is indeed a rare and outstanding new student. I’m very interested.”
Heavenly King Wei: “Same.”
Heavenly King Yu: “Same.”
Heavenly King Yan also acknowledged.
Heavenly King Wu’s mouth opened slightly. He wanted to say something, but he couldn’t.
“Why, Old Wu, do you think this new student is relying on luck?” Heavenly King Bu grinned. “It’s good that you don’t want him. In any case, I’ve already decided to send him an invitation.”
Heavenly King Wu: “???”
Did I say anything?
Why wouldn’t I want him!
No, it was clearly mine in the first place…!!!
Heavenly King Wu was angry, but he still had to maintain his Heavenly King-level demeanor. A smile hung on the corners of his mouth, just that it was a little stiff.
…
On the audience platform.
Liu Ren’s two sprites also went down.
They took the initiative to join the battle team, but the Lava Tortoise was too slow and couldn’t keep up with the main team. It was just like other sprites like Th.o.r.n.y Turtle and Ink Tortoise, slowly chasing after them.
When they reached Site A, the main team had already reached Site E.
When they rushed to location E, where was the main team… main team?
The Lava Tortoise kept calling Liu Ren with contracts.
Liu Ren was too shocked to notice the contract bell.
He stood there in a daze for a while before turning to look at big thigh Su. He forced out two words. “Impressive (cracked voice)!”
Su Hao held his chin and pretended to be very calm.
And the indifference of having everything under control.
But…
He called for b.u.t.terfly, Dazed Crow, and Dumb Beast.
Can someone tell him the details and specific progress?
“Forget it, forget it. For the little rascal to be able to do this, it must have something to do with my usual education.”
“Thinking about it this way, it’s indeed my credit. That’s right, that’s it.
“I’m really impressive.”
…
On the huge white tower, the man in the earpiece had just used “visual sharing”, and then forcefully swallowed back the words “just a disorderly crowd, no need to be afraid”.
After more than ten seconds, the Bursting Flame Bat and the Three-Headed Hound, which were already heavily injured, completely broke off contact with him.
He could only look at the bearded man who was also breaking out in sweat.
“Big Brother, have you counted exactly how many sprites there are?”
“This doesn’t make sense! How did so many sprites get together? What exactly is their Sprite Trainer thinking?”
“I think that Reverie b.u.t.terfly is the leader. Killing it should be able to reverse the situation… That’s what I did when I was surrounded previously…”
“Shut up!”
The boy with the despaired look roared.
Of course he knew that!
But that Reverie b.u.t.terfly, that Reverie b.u.t.terfly…
…
“Gurgle~!”
“Gurgle~!”
“Gurgle, gurgle ~!”
It was commanding.
Group 4 and Group performed 5 long-range attacks.
Group 1 and Group 2 attracted the attack.
Ordinary teams trapped the Vine Demon.
Ordinary team 2 used s.p.a.ce-time tactics to stall the other sprites who rushed over to a.s.sist.
Its spiritual force fused with its sound, spreading far and wide.
Even in the poisonous fog area where the explosions kept coming from, it could be clearly heard by every sprite.
The Mountain Moving Ape, which was treated like a Boss, gradually lost its roars.
Its waving arms became weaker and weaker, but there were still a lot of enemies around.
Finally…
An illusion hit, and the Mountain Moving Ape suddenly froze.
Flaming Cloud Crow and Killer Mantis, who were looking for opportunities in the surroundings, turned into two figures, one red and one dark green, and rushed forward.
Swords and knives flashed on the battlefield.
The Mountain Moving Ape fell.
A minute later, the second Boss, the Vine Demon, fell.
Five minutes later, the other four Bosses fell.
Although a lot of the battle team’s sprites had also died, it was just fighting against the Boss, how could there not be casualties?
The sprites that had a.s.sisted in the attack all let out excited roars.
At this moment.
On another huge white tower opposite them.
Two boys, two girls, total four second-year students looked into the distance, vaguely having a bad feeling.
“Isn’t the battle commotion over there too… too huge?”
“From the looks of it, all the difficult freshmen this year have gone over there to fight. I reckon it has nothing to do with us.”
“No, have you guys noticed that the smoke and dust that was raised seems to be… getting closer and closer?”
The four second-year students looked into the distance, their mouths gradually widening.
…
Ten minutes later.
Whale Island University’s 46th Annual Challenge Compet.i.tion ended with all the older students eliminated.
At the same time, the instructors of each level also sent out invitations to the students they favored.
Countless new Sprite Commandeering wristbands vibrated at this moment.
