154: Is Yanlong University crazy?

Buzz buzz buzz!

As Su Jing's words fell, the frozen image on the giant screen began to fluctuate again.

The second round of the official competition was still a Arena Battle.

Because fifty teams had already been eliminated, in the second round of the competition, all participating teams did not need to fight three consecutive matches to advance, unlike in the first round.

Basically, they only needed to defeat their opponent to advance to the third round.

However…

There was one exception.

The total number of participating teams that could advance to the third round was only twenty-four.

Therefore, in the second round, the two lowest-ranked victorious teams needed to fight one more match.

The winner would enter the third round, while the loser would be ranked twenty-fifth, ending their journey in the official competition.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Soon.

As the image on the giant screen gradually solidified, the match list for the second round was freshly released.

[Blazing Dragon University versus Binghuang University!]

[Huaqing University versus Qingyun University!]

[Southern Saint University versus Mingguang University!]

…

[Yanhua University versus Chongming University!]

…

“Hoo hoo!”

“The second round matches are quite interesting!”

“Blazing Dragon University is directly facing Binghuang University, a former top ten contender. This will definitely be a Dragon-Tiger battle.”

“I'm really looking forward to seeing Wang Chen’s Dragon in this battle.”

“…”

When the freshly released match list appeared, the audience in the Grand Stadium erupted.

The second round match list had two particularly big highlights.

One was Blazing Dragon University versus Binghuang University.

Blazing Dragon University, needless to say, had held the top university position for ten consecutive years, its strength was unquestionable.

And Binghuang University's strength was not weak either.

Its rankings in previous years hovered around sixth or seventh place, never dropping out of the top ten, always eyeing the title of a top-tier university.

In addition to this.

The second highlight fell upon the unlucky Yanhua University.

Chongming University's ranking was similar to Binghuang University's. It was still unknown who would win when Yanhua University, having just gone through a bitter battle, faced off against them.

Participant viewing area.

“Binghuang University is very strong. Their main player, Huo Yunjie, has the special profession of Divine Wind Archer.”

“This profession, in its early stages, is even stronger than your little girlfriend's Gale Archer.”

Chen Xiaolin turned to look at Wang Chen, speaking with a hint of solemnity.

“Uh…”

Hearing this, Wang Chen couldn't help but awkwardly touch his nose.

“Teacher, Situ Yu and I are actually innocent.”

He explained somewhat awkwardly.

However.

Hearing his words, Chen Xiaolin's expression became a little strange.

A Divine Beast cub was given away just like that.

You're telling me you two are innocent?

You're kidding!

Young people nowadays really know how to have fun!

Thinking to himself, Chen Xiaolin said with a smile:

“I'm just making a comparison to give you a direct understanding.”

As he spoke, he paused and continued:

“Binghuang University's starting lineup is a Level 70 Earth-type mage, then a Level 70 Berserker, with Huo Yunjie ranked third.”

“Do you want Zhou Wu and Zhao Li to go first, take out the Earth-type mage and Berserker, and let you face Huo Yunjie directly, or do you want to go straight in?”

“I'll go directly!”

Wang Chen thought for a moment and said:

“Currently, Zuo Qingwen and Lan Qianlong of Huaqing University have already surpassed me in individual points.”

“If I don't work harder, they'll widen the gap!”

The individual points for competing for the strongest freshman were calculated separately from the team's points, and the way they were obtained was also different.

In each battle, a participating player who won would gain one point for themselves and their team, and would also plunder the opponent's individual points, accumulating them on themselves.

In the first round, the opponents Wang Chen encountered were too weak, and he didn't gain any plunder points. He currently only had fourteen individual points.

Lan Qianlong and Zuo Qingwen, on the other hand, now had eighteen and sixteen points respectively.

“Alright!”

Hearing Wang Chen's words, Chen Xiaolin nodded.

“As long as you know what you're doing, I won't interfere too much with your actions!”

“But one thing, you can't mess up in the competition, or else, when I get back to school and get punished, I'll definitely drag you along with me.”

Chen Xiaolin said with a smile.

“Don't worry, Teacher!”

Hearing this, Wang Chen smiled, his tone full of confidence: “Even if the people from Binghuang University are strong, they won't be my opponents.”

“And in this battle, I plan to let my Beast Pet participate.”

Ice Purity and Susu, these two little guys, had long been dissatisfied with staying in the Beast Pet Space.

Now that they had encountered an opponent of decent strength, it was a good opportunity to let the two little guys come out and stretch their limbs.

After speaking, Wang Chen nodded to Zhou Wu, Zhao Li, and the others, then directly strode towards the teleportation gate leading to the battle Secret Realm.

Behind him, Zhou Wu, Zhao Li, and the others sat calmly in their original spots, not moving.

Apparently, the second round of the competition would be completed by Wang Chen alone.

…

…

“Holy cow!”

“Look, what is Blazing Dragon University doing?”

“Why is only Wang Chen entering the battle Secret Realm? The other four are all sitting in the spectator stands, not moving?”

“…”

As Wang Chen's figure walked into the teleportation gate, the audience, realizing what was happening, suddenly discovered that only he entered, while the rest of Blazing Dragon University became spectators on the sidelines.

In an instant, upon seeing this scene, the atmosphere in the entire Grand Stadium exploded.

“Oh my goodness!”

“Blazing Dragon University, are they planning to defeat Binghuang University with just Wang Chen alone?”

“They are too confident. If Wang Chen fails in the competition, Blazing Dragon University will miss out on first place again this year!”

“Now there's a good show to watch. Originally, the match between Blazing Dragon University and Binghuang University was a major highlight of the second round. Now that Blazing Dragon University is doing this, my anticipation has been fully heightened!”

“…”

The audience was buzzing with discussions, their clamor almost tearing off the roof of the Grand Stadium.

And in the participant team area, the expressions on the faces of the teachers leading other universities that had entered the second round were also incredibly surprised.

No one had expected that Chen Xiaolin of Blazing Dragon University would have such confidence in Wang Chen.

Even if Wang Chen had overpowered everyone in the preliminary round, it shouldn't warrant sending him out alone, right?

Thinking with shock in their hearts, everyone looked at the calm Chen Xiaolin, their eyes filled with immense shock.

Among everyone, the one with the most complex feelings was undoubtedly Su Wanqing, the team leader of Binghuang University.

Originally, when they encountered Blazing Dragon University in the second round, her heart had already tightened, feeling that something bad might happen in the second round.

As a result, Blazing Dragon University only sent one person to participate?

“Heh heh!”

“This is what you asked for!”

Sneering in her heart, Su Wanqing's expression relaxed a little.
