Wang Xiao looked around. Those people were also observing the situation.

“Idol!”

Yi Han waved his hand not far away. “If you see me inside later, don’t go easy on me!”

“Don’t worry! I’ll definitely beat you up!” Wang Xiao replied jokingly.

Yi Han laughed and followed Xu Junrou into the teleportation door.

After silently calculating in his heart for a moment, Wang Xiao leaned close to Zhou Xiruo’s ear and whispered, “Remember these people around you. Once you encounter them, don’t hold back.”

Zhou Xiruo nodded, but she still felt lucky. “There’s no need to be so nervous, right? There are a total of more than a thousand people. We might not encounter them.”

“We’ll definitely bump into each other.”

Wang Xiao pointed around. “There are about 90 people here, and they’re all experts among the students. No matter how lucky we are, we’ll at least face two… It’s hard to say if our luck is worse.”

Zhou Xiruo pondered for a moment and realized that this was really the case. Her expression immediately turned ugly. “Then what should I do? If I encounter an opponent like you or Yi Han, I don’t have any chance of winning, right?”

“Not necessarily. After all, we’ve already trained for more than a month. If it really doesn’t work…”

At this point, Wang Xiao suddenly paused. After confirming that no one was eavesdropping, he whispered into Zhou Xiruo’s ear, “If it really doesn’t work, you can try to summon the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon].”

“Although as my vassal lord, logically speaking, you can’t summon my soldiers, but the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] is rather special. It can ignore the [Contract] under certain circumstances. You might succeed.”

“Might?”

Zhou Xiruo revealed a strange expression, but this was still a solution. She nodded and agreed. Then, she took a deep breath and walked into the teleportation door.

Wang Xiao followed closely behind. A white light flashed in front of him, and when his vision was clear again, he was already standing in the arena.

Just like the arena secret realm that Wang Xiao usually trained in, this arena was also floating in the air.

However, this arena was rectangular. It was about 500 meters long and more than 200 meters wide. The two people stood on each side. As long as they obtained the other party’s flag, they would win.

“Hey! Stop looking! Hurry up and start!”

A shout came from the other side. Only then did Wang Xiao realize that his opponent was already prepared.

First, 20 [Elven Guards] raised their heavy shields and guarded in front. Then, there were 30 [Goblin Archers]. The ten of them were divided into three rows, probably to shorten the firing gap.

Behind the [Goblin Archers] were five gold level one [Elven Knights]. Although there were few of them, the speed of these soldiers was extremely fast. They should be the main force used by the other party to capture the flag.

Seeing this formation, Wang Xiao could not help but approve in his heart. Although he did not know the other party, this strategic deployment was still commendable.

“I’m Wang Xiao!”

Wang Xiao cupped his hands and shouted from afar, “How should I address you?”

“You don’t have to know because you’ll be eliminated soon!”

The student opposite him sneered and replied. Then, he urged impatiently, “Hurry up and summon your soldiers! I don’t want word to get out that I’m bullying you!”

‘…Alright.”

Wang Xiao nodded. Then, with a thought, a silver leopard the size of a calf appeared beside him.

“New mutated beast?”

When the student opposite him realized that he had never seen this mutated beast before, he hurriedly took out the [Identification Scroll] and tore it open. After looking at it, he smiled. “You want to fight me with a peak silver level three? Aren’t you too conceited?”

Wang Xiao revealed an ambiguous smile. “It’s enough to deal with you.”

Before he could finish speaking, [Silver Flash] was instantly activated!

The [Silver Shadow Leopard] turned into a silver light and rushed towards the enemy formation. Before the student could react, the flag in front of him disappeared.

“What

Before he could say the words “going on”, the student’s figure disappeared in a golden light.

Immediately after, the soldiers he summoned turned into shattered light and collapsed. Wang Xiao easily won the first match.

“Well done.”

Wang Xiao patted the furry head of the [Silver Shadow Leopard]. The flag he had snatched suddenly flickered back to its original position, and then another student was teleported over.

“Gasp… There’s really no time to rest!”

Wang Xiao secretly took a deep breath and then smiled brightly at his “opponent” opposite him. “Hello, goodbye.”

Five minutes later, Wang Xiao had already won four matches. Moreover, his opponent in the last match was not weak.

However, using the [Silver Shadow Leopard]’s [Flickering Light and Shadow] to hide his strength and using the [Silver Flash] to catch the other party off guard, Wang Xiao still easily won the fourth round. Moreover, the energy he consumed was less than ten percent.

At this stage, Wang Xiao could almost be said to have locked onto victory. However, he did not know how the situation on Zhou Xiruo’s side was.

As he was thinking, a golden light flashed on the other side of the arena, and the fifth opponent appeared.

‘Wang Xiao?!”

A female voice exclaimed. Wang Xiao focused his gaze and his expression immediately became a little strange. His fifth opponent was actually Xu Junrou!

..What a coincidence?”

Wang Xiao smiled dryly and greeted her. Meeting in the fifth round meant that one of them was destined to be eliminated.

“It’s quite a coincidence.”

Xu Junrou smiled with a complicated expression. Then, she suddenly thought of something and asked, “Which number am I?”

Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment before reacting. “The fifth.”

“How can you be so fast?!”

Xu Junrou cried out in surprise again. There was a hint of embarrassment on her face. “I just won a match…’

“You’ve only reached the second round?”

Wang Xiao was stunned, but he immediately reacted. All the competitions were held at the same time. As long as someone won, they would automatically be matched. Therefore, it was very normal for the two of them to have different progress.

However, Xu Junrou had encountered him in the second round. It could be said that she was extremely unlucky. However, from another perspective, his progress was so fast that it was already certain that he would obtain a spot.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao also relaxed. He waved his hand and asked the Silver Shadow Leopard to complete the job. Then, he looked at Xu Junrou and suggested, “Surrender yourself. Otherwise, it won’t be good if I hurt you.”

Xu Junrou thought for a moment and suddenly bowed deeply to Wang Xiao. “Wang Xiao, I’m sorry!”

Wang Xiao was stunned. “What do you mean?”

Xu Junrou did not speak. She raised her hand and summoned a few [Mechanical Spiders]. Then, she transformed and combined them a few times to actually make a small fortress that directly shielded her flag inside!

“I know that I can’t beat you. Being eliminated is destined.”

Xu Junrou looked at Wang Xiao with a determined expression. “However, in order to increase Yi Han’s chances of obtaining a spot, I’ll do everything I can to delay you!”

Looking at the 360-degree mechanical fortress, Wang Xiao was simply on the brink of tears.. Xu Junrou was simply harming others without benefiting herself!
