Chapter 311: Confirmed List, Heavenly King’s Special Training (3)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The ground rumbled with thunder.
Under the dark sky, blue-purple lightning illuminated everyone’s dazed faces.
At this moment…
Without the support of its power, the sandstorm had completely disappeared under the torrential rain. The rainwater gathered into a stream, bringing with it sand as it flowed into the cracks and huge pits.
In the sky, the huge beast surrounded by blue-purple lightning faded into the rain and gradually disappeared.
The thunder arcs leaping on the dark clouds also gradually lessened, the rain weakened, and after dozens of seconds, it completely calmed down.
The thick clouds dispersed, and the dim yellow sunlight shone on the battlefield.
On one side of the battlefield, a huge pit hundreds of meters in diameter appeared. The pit was muddy, with tiny water pits everywhere. Water mixed with sand was still flowing down from the top.
In the center of the huge pit, a few sprites were buried.
In the pit, there was the Sandstorm Giant Eagle, the Sandstorm Giant Scorpion, and the Sand Earthworm, which still got electrocuted despite burrowing into the ground. Half of its body was exposed, and it was already motionless.
Only Tyrant Bear was left standing there, barely holding on.
Next to his sprite, the Sprite Trainer held onto his protective s.h.i.+eld.
“In the final attack, they withdrew their power,” said Heavenly King Gong Ling. “They have a good control of the power of heaven and earth. Not bad, very good!”
The other Heavenly Kings also had smiles on their faces.
Heavenly King Lie Kong said, “I was shocked when the Thunder Rain Huge Beast appeared. I almost wanted to intervene.”
“Yeah, if he didn’t withdraw his power from that attack just now, Ning Mao and his sprites might not have survived… Ms. Gong Ling, you’re a Heavenly King of Water. Can you tell us how he did that?”
To the Heavenly Kings present, the heavenly might just now couldn’t be said to be strong.
Any one of their monarch ranks could cause even more terrifying natural disasters.
But…
The sprites below were only extraordinary. In fact, in terms of development, it was only at the initial or mid-level of extraordinary.
It was very far from even a pseudo monarch.
But it could trigger boundless power.
Even experienced Heavenly Kings like them were shocked.
“The cloud in the sky is very special. It’s not a simple rain cloud. It should be related to that sprite’s talent ability. As for that sprite… I don’t understand it.”
“You, a Water-Element Heavenly King, don’t understand Water-Element Sprites?”
Heavenly King Chi Mei, who was sitting on the coffin, couldn’t stand it anymore.
How could he say all that with a straight face
Heavenly King Gong Ling, on the other hand, calmly refuted, “You’re also a ghost-element Heavenly King. Do you know everything about that ghost-element sprite in his team?”
“It’s called… called Yama Ghost King.” Heavenly King Chi Mei had heard about it before.
“What talent does it have, what’s so special about it, what advantages and disadvantages it has in battle, how to nurture it, how strong do you think it is now?”
Heavenly King Gong Ling kept firing questions at the other party.
Heavenly King Chi Mei thought about it and realized that he… had nothing to say.
Indeed, he didn’t understand.
He was a ghost-element Heavenly King and didn’t understand other people’s ghost-element sprites. So what right did he have to question Heavenly King Gong Ling?
“That’s right, there are just too many special sprites in his team!”
Yama Ghost King, Water Qilin, Eternal Night Glory Concubine, b.u.t.terfly Fairy…
They were all the first of their kind in the union. Actually, they were probably the only one of their kind…
The only sprites that were truly ordinary were the Flaming Spiritcrow and Thunder Roaring.
“No, that’s not right. That Thunder Roaring isn’t simple either. The power displayed by the ordinary lightning in its hands is simply too strong. It’s very abnormal. If that strike just now wasn’t fused with its powerful lightning, the strike of the huge beast definitely wouldn’t have had such terrifying power!”
He came to a conclusion.
Perhaps, the only real normal sprite was the Flaming Spiritcrow.
“But what made me even more amazed was his ability to create secret manuals.”
“That’s right,” said the emotional Heavenly King Lie Kong. “Although he was able to win with a crus.h.i.+ng advantage, a large part of it was due to the power of Water Qilin. The two sprites’ control of the elements and the power of heaven and earth were top-notch, and they also had special talents…
“However, the power of Thunder Rain’s fusion was already just as good and maybe even better than the Sandstorm’s secret manual, let alone the power of the Thunder Rain Huge Beast. The power it possesses is probably equivalent to a… top secret manual!”
It was enough strength to create a top-tier sect!
Of course, the creation of a sect could not only be based on one single secret manual.
But if one already had a top secret manual, how difficult was it to get mere high-level secret manuals and ordinary secret manuals?
All of a sudden, the Heavenly Kings and big bosses were overcome with shock.
The other Sprite Trainers had already been shocked for a long time!
“Less than 20 years old…”
“Evolved several new sprite forms…”
“Nurturing several extraordinary sprites…”
“Created secret manuals and defeated the inheritor of the Sandstorm Sect head-on! Crus.h.i.+ng his opponent with absolute power!”
Any one of those accomplishments could already be seen as outstanding.
However, with all of them put together…
Many people only had one thought in their minds: Su Hao wasn’t human!
It’s not the crowd that was weak. Su Hao was just too strong!
…
After Su Hao’s battle ended, there were only three to four battles left.
Even though the few Sprite Trainers who fought after Su Hao were outstanding people that ranked at the front of the 200-odd people and their performance was also very marvelous…
But somehow…
Looking at their battle, what appeared in the minds of the Sprite Trainers was still the huge beast that emerged from the thunderstorm just now.
And the glorious heavenly might.
They had all lost interest in the battles that succeeded Su Hao’s battle.
…
The next day.
Su Hao came out of his residence, his mood surging. He was considering whether to defeat his opponent with one plan, two plans, or three plans today…
“Huh? I don’t need to fight anymore today?”
I just wanted to show off. Why won’t you let me?
The staff member got gooseb.u.mps from Su Hao’s stares. “This is what the Heavenly King of Lie Kong said. He said that some of you already have your qualifications confirmed, so there’s no need to fight anymore.”
There were eight people who had already entered the qualifying list.
Including him, the Sword G.o.d, Lan Qing, Xia, and the others.
It disappointed Su Hao more.
Dazed Crow was even more disappointed than him.
The opponents in the second stage had clearly gotten stronger and Su Hao had been looking forward to the battles today…
But why, why did it end up like this?
Dazed Crow squatted in a corner, its wings drawing circles. It was very depressed and sad.
The battle on the second day was much more boring than the first day.
But with the previous day’s battle, the opponents that were ‘randomly’ matched today were even closer in strength.
The time for the second round was more than an hour later than the first round.
At the end of the second round, the examiners’ team immediately released the list of Sprite Trainers who qualified.
A total of 18 people!
Of course, the list was only pending. Sprite Trainers who weren’t selected still had one more chance to challenge.
On the third day.
“Usually, by now, shouldn’t there be challengers with a counter-attack to my Thunder Rain Water Qilin challenging me to get famous?”
In all honesty, Su Hao felt that the “Thunder Rain Qilin” really wasn’t that hard to counter.
Fpr example, b.u.t.terfly’s illusion interference could directly interrupt the operation of Dumb Unicorn.
Ah Yan’s “Gan Kun in the Shadow” had also reached the third stage. It could even escape into the shadow s.p.a.ce and directly dodge the attack.
In conclusion, there were many ways to counter it.
“Well, on second thought, these methods may be a little difficult for others.”
So in the end, no one went up to Su Hao to challenge him.
Dazed Crow continued to squat in a corner of the cloud and draw circles.
In the end, the final name list was confirmed. It was still the same 18 people evaluated by the Heavenly Kings.
Sword G.o.d, Lan Qing, Xia, Lin, Bai Xiaoming, Gu Feiyi…
Instructor Zhu and Instructor Yang Deyu were rather regretful as they were left out from the list.
The stubbly young man’s loss was even more pathetic.
But there was nothing to be sad about. On the third day, the people who didn’t make the list were awarded the Silver and Bronze Prizes.
Those who qualified and were going to Europe to partic.i.p.ate in the “inheritance battle” were naturally the winners of the Golden Awards.
But no one really cared.
Su Hao and the other 17 people were gathered as several Heavenly King examiners arrived together.
The Heavenly King Lie Kong looked at everyone and said, “There’s still a bit of time before the inheritance battle starts. During this period of time, all of you will stay in the base to undergo special training. The four of us will be your instructors.”
“Now, let’s have an internal team compet.i.tion.. I want to understand the true strength of some of you.”
