Chapter 373: League, The Last Special Guest
It was July the 22nd.
The day was very cloudy.
At the Whale Island University’s Lakeview Residence, in the XXX building…
Su Hao was still living here temporarily. After fiddling with the research paper and advancing to a Master Sprite Cultivator, he discovered that he still… didn’t have the time to rest.
“Firstly, I have to deal with the Dazed Crow’s advancement ritual.”
Among the few sprites, in terms of developing potential, the Dazed Crow was slightly inferior.
It could slowly be nurtured into a pseudo monarch rank and was likely to even break through to the monarch rank, but…
But…
Such a process was likely to take years and was simply too slow. The only way to become stronger quickly and without negative side effects was to let it advance and break through the limits of its race.
Half a month ago, the Dazed Crow was already ready to start the ritual.
Su Hao had already reserved the last main ingredient, “Flaming Crown” and could get the courier, East Wind Falcon, to deliver it to him at any time.
It was just that he didn’t have time.
“I’ve already chosen the specific evolution venue a few months ago. I originally planned to bring Crow there to advance after the Fallen Evolution research paper is done, but…”
The research paper took a little more time than he expected.
At this moment, the High School League had already begun.
As a special guest, it wasn’t good for Su Hao to not attend. Besides, one of the organizers this year was Whale Island University, so he had to attend.
Therefore, he could only postpone Dazed Crow’s ritual.
“In any case, Butterfly and Ah Yan are already about to break through to monarch rank. It doesn’t matter whether the ritual happens.”
Dazed Crow:???
Su Hao opened the interface.
Butterfly and Ah Yan’s levels were both already pseudo monarchs.
Of course, the two of them had already developed into pseudo monarchs when they were still in the Temple of Inheritance. Among them, Ah Yan was slightly faster.
The speed here referred to the perfection level.
When the body, energy, and spirit were all developed, the sprite would be considered to have reached perfection. It was also one of the prerequisites to break through to monarch rank.
As long as a pseudo monarch perfected sprite obtained the approval of a nomological mark, it could naturally break through to monarch rank.
Butterfly and Ah Yan both naturally possessed nomological marks more than a month ago, but they hadn’t reached perfection yet, so they still needed more time to accumulate.
Their situation was the complete opposite of the other sprites who had long reached perfection but were unable to get the recognition of the imprints. Due to this, they had always been stuck at the pseudo monarch realm.
But this wasn’t a big problem.
During the time that Butterfly worked as an assistant to carry out the experiments, it didn’t forget to absorb all kinds of precious materials.
With its own efforts, the speed at which its body, energy, and spirit fused was now much faster than Ah Yan.
Su Hao was pleased by this.
“At this speed, in another seven to eight to nine days, Butterfly will be able to break through to the monarch level. At that time, I’ll also be a real Heavenly King-level Sprite Trainer, a twenty-year-old Heavenly King-level…”
But!
His development in the Sprite Trainer path was now inferior to his development in the Sprite Cultivator path.
This was probably the troubles of a genius.
At the thought of this, Su Hao used the excuse of “being busy with the follow-up matters of the Fallen Evolution” to slack off for another two days. On the third day, he changed into a handsome suit and called over the Dumb Unicorn to ride to the competition venue.
…
Compared to the previous years, this year’s High School League had quite a lot of changes.
On the basis of the original team competition, there was also an additional individual competition. Not only could it show the importance of teamwork, it could also highlight individual strength… making the High School League even more exciting and varied.
Apart from that, there were also a few extra special guest seats on top of the original two commentators.
Of course, there were also rules that remained the same.
The champion of the previous year was the Whale Island University team, so this year’s High School League was held at Whale Island University’s campus.
The university campus that rarely saw human traces on ordinary days had already become especially lively, especially in the battle area. Apart from Whale Island University students who were running around in various venues, there were also many students from other schools who came to watch.
There were even more viewers watching through television and live streams.
On the Internet, discussions about the league and the top students of the various schools were endless.
“Whale Island University is indeed strong. I’ll bet 50 cents that this year’s champion will still be Whale Island University!”
“Only 50 cents? Big Boss Su, who was only a first-year student last year, was able to lead Whale Island’s big school team to win the championship. Besides, a year has passed now. God knows how strong Big Boss Su has become. I’ll bet 10 dollars!”
“Heh heh, Whale Island University may not necessarily win this year.”
Someone said, and produced evidence. “Think about it carefully. From the beginning of the group battle until now, how many members did Whale Island University send out?”
These words made many people recall immediately.
Every team member could only send one sprite in the group battle, but there was no rule that they had to use their trump cards. Therefore, many official members of the school team would also go on stage and send their second- and third-tier sprites to train.
As for the Whale Island University team…
“One, two, three… Up until now, a total of ten members have gone on stage. God Su isn’t among them. What’s going on?!”
“What’s wrong with the people from Whale Island University? Why isn’t Big Boss Su in the team? What is the reason for this?”
“Ahhh! What’s the point of a High School League without God Su! I give up, I give up!”
At this moment…
The person who spoke first spoke again on the forum. “Idiot, didn’t you realize that one of the five extra special guest seats this year is empty?”
At this point, the league was still at the stage of group battles.
Especially during the early stages of the group battles, the battle standards of the sprites on the battlefield were mostly not high. The two professional commentators were completely able to handle them, so the cameras naturally focused on the battle sprites and the two commentators.
The special guests didn’t have much of a presence.
Some people didn’t even know how many special guests were invited this year.
However…
Someone with sharp eyes suddenly noticed something….
“There are a total of five seats in the special guest area, and one of them is contestant Lan Qing from Dragon Nation’s school team last year. She’s also not on the contestant list, so you know why I’m so sure that Big Boss Su is one of the five guests, right?”
Some agreed with this theory, while others doubted it.
But even more people’s eyes were still focused on the battle. As the group battles gradually approached the end, the sprites on the battlefield became stronger and stronger. Improved unique skills kept appearing, and the figures of elite-level limit and elite-level invincible appeared on the field.
“Whale Island University versus Rain Forest University. The fifth round begins!”
The judge waved the flag.
The captain of the Rain Forest University team, who was at a disadvantage, went on stage. He stretched out his hand…
Boom!
A huge and muscular Rain Forest Giant Ape appeared on the battlefield and let out a roar. The extraordinary aura pressure was released without any reservations.
In an instant, it was as if a hurricane blew across the whole field. Yellow-brown dust flew everywhere.
However…
The entire live broadcast camera only stopped on the Rain Forest Giant Ape for less than two seconds before it shifted and cut into the broadcasting hall.
It was fixed on the empty guest seats.
A handsome young man walked over, waved at the camera, and sat in his seat with a smile on his face.
The last special guest had arrived.
