Chapter 77: Rose Maidens vs. Wolf Striding the World!

Although both sides were quite cautious after entering the battlefield, the Team Tournament, after all, required a winner to be decided within one hour.

Therefore, the two sides entering the arena did not delay for too long.

After briefly familiarizing themselves with the battlefield environment, both sides began to tentatively move toward the center.

Both sides summoned their respective Spirit Beasts, and just to be safe, they all chose to use their Spirit Beasts to scout the path.

Soon, the two teams bumped into each other, immediately sparking a chaotic battle.

In the middle of the battlefield, sand and stones flew, trees were knocked over, and dust rose everywhere.

Several students even unleashed their respective martial arts, and the field radiated with intense Spirit Power fluctuations.

After all, those present were all fourth-year students, and the weakest among them were at least late-stage Advanced Beast Masters.

At this moment, the momentum of the two sides fighting was completely incomparable to that of first-year students.

Although the two teams were mixed together in the chaotic battle, it was still clear that both had their own tactics.

One could see that the composition of these two teams was very coordinated and complete.

Offensive Spirit Beasts, defensive Spirit Beasts, and support Spirit Beasts could be said to be all present, each performing their own duties on the field.

The two teams fought quite fiercely, and for a time, it was hard to tell who was winning.

After all, in team combat, unless someone possesses the formidable combat power to crush everyone else,

it is very difficult to achieve victory in battle based on individual strength.

The Team Tournament mainly tests the coordination between team members.

Being able to better utilize the characteristics of the Spirit Beasts and employ more reasonable tactics is what leads to final victory.

"These fourth-year students are indeed impressive..."

Yi Zimeng looked at the two teams fighting below and couldn't help but speak up.

"These people are basically all Spirit-level Beast Masters, and the worst among them has the strength of a Nine-Star Advanced Beastmaster."

"And looking at the tacit understanding in their fighting, they are clearly teams that have been formed for a long time. Do we... do we really have a chance this time?"

Yi Zimeng looked at those formidable fourth-year students, unable to help feeling a bit worried.

Although she recognized her own talent, the gap in cultivation levels between them was indeed very large.

Not to mention that they were only first-year freshmen; although they usually trained in martial arts together, they had never actually fought in a small team format.

Even when they were in the Secret Realm earlier, it was basically a solo performance by Luo Shuiyan and Jiang Che.

It wasn't just Yi Zimeng; Lin Xue'er also felt a bit unsure of herself.

At this moment, Lin Xue'er's brows were tightly furrowed, and her expression was full of worry.

She was currently only a Five-Star Advanced Beastmaster, which was a significant gap compared to the other contestants in the tournament.

It could be said that Lin Xue'er was the shortest plank in their team.

Seeing Lin Xue'er's worried face, Luo Shuiyan smiled slightly and gently patted her shoulder.

"It's okay, as long as everyone gives it their all, it's no big deal even if we lose."

Luo Shuiyan did not blindly offer encouragement, but instead softly comforted the others.

Because she knew that this was currently only the Campus Selection Tournament held within Tianque Academy.

If they really advanced, the opponents they would encounter at the Hundred Schools League would be several levels stronger than the current ones!

Tianque Academy, as the premier Beast Tamer Academy in the Xi'an Ancient City,

has not placed in the top ten of the Hundred Schools League for over a dozen sessions.

This is enough to show how formidable the strength of other Beast Tamer Academies in the Great Jin Dynasty is! Since they were a team, they needed to slowly hone their coordination.

Luo Shuiyan believed that she still had enough confidence.

She could serve as a pillar in the Selection Tournament to buy time for the others to hone their coordination.

In the time that followed, Lin Xue'er and the others no longer spoke.

Everyone was watching the battle with full concentration, wanting to absorb more experience from the combat.

After all, the people currently competing were very likely the opponents they would encounter next.

If they could know the opponent's abilities and Spirit Beast characteristics in advance, it would be of great help once the battle started.

As time passed, the first battle soon reached a conclusion.

However, the winning side, despite their victory, all had injuries of varying degrees.

After all, the strength of both sides was similar; this kind of evenly matched battle is the greatest test for Beast Tamers and their teams.

The second match was the same; although both sides were somewhat proactive, once the fighting truly began, it fell into a stalemate.

This was because the strength of the two teams was similar, and it was difficult to decide a winner in a short time.

"Rose Maidens!"

Just then, an Instructor called out the name of Luo Shuiyan's team.

The third match had finally reached Luo Shuiyan and her team.

Luo Shuiyan looked up and saw that her team's opponent was 'Wolf Striding the World' from the fourth-year key class.

The entire team consisted of Spirit-level Beast Masters, and their strength was very formidable!

This team belonged to the difficult-to-deal-with level even among fourth-year students.

The captain of 'Wolf Striding the World', Lang Sanping, had already broken through to a Four-Star Spirit-Grade Beast Master.

Within Tianque Academy, he was considered a somewhat famous figure.

"Rose Maidens, Wolf Striding the World, if both sides are ready, please enter the arena."

Upon hearing the voice of the Academy Elder, Luo Shuiyan led the three girls into the battlefield.

The four girls, including their Spirit Beasts, were all very slender and petite, which made everyone watching the match look down upon them.

After all, the strength of a Spirit Beast is, to a certain extent, closely related to its physical body.

Jiang Che's four Spirit Beasts looked very cute, with no sense of dominance at all.

What's more, Luo Shuiyan and the other three were all just freshmen.

Previously, when Luo Shuiyan registered as team captain, her cultivation realm was only at the high-level Seven-Star stage.

After seeing the information for this team, many people off the field shook their heads.

"Heh, I say, you few junior schoolmates, why don't we stop dragging this out? Let's fight early and end it early!"

Just as he stepped onto the field, Lang Sanping looked at Luo Shuiyan and the others with a playful expression.

Clearly, she did not take Luo Shuiyan and the others seriously at all, thinking they were nothing more than vases.

"Sure, that's exactly what I wanted!"

Luo Shuiyan showed no fear and agreed immediately.

As soon as both sides entered the field, they set up their respective battle formations.

"Xiaohu! Don't you dare embarrass me, or I'll take a whip to you today!"

Seeing the playful expressions of Lang Sanping and the others, Hu Xiaoxiao puffed up her cheeks in anger.

She could not stand the mockery of others and immediately ordered Little Tiger to charge to the very front.

"Cailin!"

"Ayin!"

Yi Zimeng and Lin Xue'er both had somewhat solemn expressions.

They could feel that the strength of the people opposite them was no small matter.

Compared to the three who summoned their Spirit Beasts and were fully geared up for a big fight, Luo Shuiyan's side was the exact opposite.

"Xiaobai, don't strike too hard for a while; give the three of them a chance for some practical experience..."

Luo Shuiyan knew deep down that Jiang Che's current strength was extremely formidable.

If they were truly in a rush to finish.

I'm afraid Lin Xue'er and the other two would just be bystanders before the battle ended...
