61: Chapter 61 Qinghu City Participating Teams
A waning moon hung in the sky, and stars filled the dark firmament.
Xu Qingfang and Mo Yu were lying on their beds scrolling through their phones, not forgetting to pay attention to Yue Yun beside them: "What did she give you?"
"Bloodline Ascension Potion."
Yue Yun showed the golden potion, which was surging with deep points of light, to Xu Qingfang. An invisible power flowed within the test tube.
The Bloodline Ascension Potion can enhance a Pet Beast's Bloodline strength. While the Pet Beast gains a boost in potential, it also lays a solid foundation for the Pet Beast's evolution.
This potion and the dragon blood potion both originate from the Huaxia Research Institute. They are rare and priceless, with no market for them.
They are only supplied to the East District officials and various top universities.
It was highly likely that the one Qin Xiyue sent was obtained by an elder in her family working for the government, or perhaps an older sibling who exchanged credits for it at a top-tier university.
Overall, it was extremely precious.
Xu Qingfang sat up from the bed with a face full of surprise: "This is good stuff! It seems her remorse is quite sincere!"
Yue Yun shrugged and said nothing.
He tossed the Bloodline Ascension Potion to Xu Qingfang, scaring him into a frantic catch, for fear of breaking it.
"What are you doing?"
"It's for you."
Yue Yun took Xu Qingfang's cigarette from the bedside: "Didn't you say the Griffin still needs training before it can release its talent? This thing came at just the right time; it can help you shorten the time significantly.
Anyway, Miao Sang mainly improves in life and strength; I'm not in a hurry for other aspects. I can take it slow."
Xu Qingfang was instantly moved.
The value of the Bloodline Ascension Potion was worth more than a thousand pieces of gold.
Especially for a Pet Beast like the Earth Spirit Cat with an E-grade potential rating, it was an incredibly massive boost in terms of potential alone.
Even if it wasn't needed right now, one had to plan ahead.
Yet Yue Yun gave it to him without even a second look.
Mo Yu seized the opportunity to tease: "Old Xu, be sensible. Wash yourself clean tonight so you don't make things difficult for my Brother Yun!"
"Get lost!"
...
"Welcome back to the scene of the Campus Championship!"
The host stood in the center of the battle stage, his heart pounding with excitement: "After nearly two weeks of competition, only three of the twenty teams remain. They have come to the finals to determine the champion, runner-up, and third place!"
The crowded audience stands erupted in cheers.
There were even more spectators this time than before. The already packed Beast Taming Field felt cramped, but even so, no one complained, as everyone looked forward to the upcoming matches with anticipation.
It wasn't just because the Campus Championship had reached the finals.
Some of them were there specifically for Yue Yun.
Yue Yun's ability to take the form of a Divine General had shaken the entire country. Through the internet, his fame had spread across the East District with unimaginable speed.
Some suspected it was a fraud.
But the Campus Championship was backed by the Nanyuan Province Beast Tamer Association, which was enough to prove the authenticity of the information.
Certain people were flocking toward this power.
Mayor Xu was well aware of this.
But as long as Yue Yun remained in Nanyuan City, he would never sit idly by; he would certainly protect Yue Yun's safety.
"Jianghai Second Middle School VS Qinghu First Middle School!"
The enthusiasm of the audience was fully ignited, and the shouts thundered like a tremor, nearly lifting the roof off the massive Beast Taming Field.
Others also wanted to witness Yue Yun's new style.
As well as the two top-tier geniuses with S-grade Beast Taming Talents.
"Wen Guyu, Two-Star Beast Tamer, Pet Beast: Elemental Spirit!"
The seven-colored Pet Beast contract unique to an S-grade Beast Taming Talent slowly manifested, instantly tugging at the heartstrings of the entire audience.
An elegant female silhouette of normal height stepped out, woven from the purest elemental energy. Deep brown, azure, crimson, verdant... the colors constantly shifted and flowed in a harmonious, never-ending stream.
Its face resembled Wen Guyu's, refined and elegant yet gentle. It trailed colorful elemental ribbons behind it, like the most exquisite Incarnation of a nature goddess.
The audience stands instantly erupted in thunderous cheers.
The representatives of those top-tier universities even stood up in excitement, determined to recruit Wen Guyu with her S-grade Beast Taming Talent.
"Shen Dao, Two-Star Beast Tamer, Pet Beast: Floating Leaf Bamboo Swordsman!"
A slender swordsman flashed out from a golden Pet Beast contract. Its appearance was like a bamboo spirit, with jade-like bamboo joints skillfully joined together, creating a structure that was light yet resilient.
Slender and sharp bamboo leaves served as its fingers, gripping a bamboo branch that held several bamboo leaves like a sword. The sword's body of verdant bamboo leaves also displayed natural, orderly veins.
"Ouyang Chao, Two-Star Beast Tamer, Pet Beast: Thousand Poison Centipede!"
A giant centipede five meters long appeared on the battle stage.
Its carapace was glossy and reflective, its body covered in poisonous spines like black crystals, and its large, well-developed mouthparts shimmered with a terrifying, cold light.
"Long Han, Two-Star Beast Tamer, Pet Beast: Spirit Crown Tree!"
The five-meter Spirit Crown Tree appeared, its emerald canopy swaying gently, clearing the dust from the air and bringing freshness, causing the Spiritual Qi around it to become active.
Seeing this, Xue Qin and Su Lixia's expressions grew somewhat solemn.
The potential rating of the Spirit Crown Tree was B-grade. For it to be chosen as a Pet Beast by Long Han, who had an A-grade Beast Taming Talent, there must be something special about it.
"It doesn't matter; we have to fight anyway."
Xu Qingfang didn't apply pressure but instead arranged their formation as usual: "You two hold off the Thousand Poison Centipede and the Spirit Crown Tree. I'll go try out the power of that Elemental Spirit.
You can handle that bamboo spirit, right?"
Xu Qingfang looked at Yue Yun and asked.
Yue Yun responded with a reassuring look. He raised his hand to grip the Rock Spear and stepped onto the battle stage with steady and firm strides.
The audience stands erupted in another round of loud cheers and shouts.
Clang—!
The match bell rang at the opportune moment.
The Floating Leaf Bamboo Swordsman took the initiative, its figure dashing forward as the bamboo branch sword in its hand glowed with a fluorescent green, adding a hint of killing intent.
"Fierce Will!"
Yue Yun changed his charge into a leap.
He leapt high like a giant roc spreading its wings, then plummeted toward the ground like a meteor. To the Floating Leaf Bamboo Swordsman, it felt like Mount Tai was crushing down.
The Floating Leaf Bamboo Swordsman halted its movement and retreated rapidly.
As soon as it created some distance, it prepared to counterattack with its bamboo branch sword. Yue Yun also lunged forward again, wielding his Rock Spear to engage it in combat.
The two were locked in a fierce struggle, unable to overcome each other for the moment.
The Thunderwing Griffin soared in the sky, summoning thunder to strike at the Elemental Spirit, but the Elemental Spirit merely raised its hand and curled a finger.
Fierce winds condensed in front of it, forming a shield that blocked the Thunderwing Griffin's thunder as if nothing had happened.
"Hold on for a while."
Wen Guyu instructed her teammates before turning her head to look at the Thunderwing Griffin.
Under her control, the Elemental Spirit raised its hand and pointed at the Thunderwing Griffin. The air currents in the sky gradually became violent, like invisible waves constantly crashing against the Thunderwing Griffin.
The Thunderwing Griffin's body swayed in the wind and waves.
But even so, it did not back down. It let out a cry and flapped its massive wings to stir up thunder, and azure lightning instantly filled the sky.
Rumble—!
The wind howled, and the thunder rolled.
The Thunderwing Griffin's pale gold fur shimmered amidst the sky full of lightning. Its vast wings blended with the thunder, looking like a majestic lion hunting in the sky.
"Looks like I have to get serious!"
A smile appeared on Xu Qingfang's face as he proudly glanced at Su Lixia and Xue Qin, then looked across the vast battle stage toward Wen Guyu, his Battle Intent surging.
"Thunderous Body!"
