Chapter 176
"Could it be that Su Yu's strength surpasses both Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu and Wang Wang Shizhong? Does he still have hidden tricks!?"
"This league tournament is going to be lively. It seems this year's competition will not be simple."
"Exactly, the Dragon Tamer Envoy, the Diamond Giant Beast, and the Mightiest First-Year. This should count as the most luxurious lineup in history; we're in for a good show!"
On the stage, after Ye Ye Lingzhi finished speaking, she paid no heed to the reactions of the audience present and walked directly to the special spectator seats.
Those capable of sitting here were all the principals of various universities.
And Ye Ye Lingzhi's seat was right in the center!
As the Heavenly King of Xia Country, Ye Ye Lingzhi's status could naturally be said to be at the pinnacle.
Once everything was prepared, the broadcast sounded.
"Then, the competition is about to begin! We will now arrange the matches!"
On the screen, the names of the contestants quickly began to light up.
After a chaotic spin, the matchups were arranged!
Everyone immediately began checking their opponents.
Su Yu also hurriedly looked.
Upon seeing his opponent's name, Su Yu was extremely surprised.
Because his first-round opponent...
Was none other than Xu Yao from Nanzhe University, who had greeted him earlier!
He hadn't expected that merely after meeting, the two of them would become opponents.
However, Su Yu was not overly worried.
No matter who his opponent was, he would defeat them!
After checking Su Yu's opponent, Cui Cui Hongzhi was also stunned.
"I didn't expect your first match opponent to be Xu Yao! Originally, I even thought you might 'lose one out of eighty'."
"But remembering that both Qin Qin Qin Mengwu and Heavenly King Ye know you, I instantly felt that you would be the victor."
Cui Cui Hongzhi teased.
After arranging the contestant matchups.
The highly anticipated Elite Tournament of the University Spirit League officially began!
The broadcast immediately notified the arranged contestants to enter the arena for their matches.
Those not yet scheduled sat in the resting rooms to wait.
Su Yu's match was relatively late.
Therefore, he first sat in the resting room to observe the contestants' performances.
After watching for a while, Su Yu realized.
The contestants who made it here, whether in terms of strength or experience...
Were incomparable to those in previous competitions.
The spirits of some top-tier contestants were also at very high levels!
Some had even broken through to the quasi-Heavenly King level.
With such strength, dealing with those contestants whose spirits were still around level forty-something was undoubtedly effortless.
Cui Cui Hongzhi's match was before Su Yu's.
Although his opponent was strong, they were not top-tier.
They were slightly weaker than Cui Cui Hongzhi.
Thus, Cui Cui Hongzhi also easily defeated his opponent.
In the subsequent matches, Su Yu also saw the spirits of top-tier contestants like Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu.
Their levels were all above 50.
And Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu's main spirit, the Garchomp, had reached a terrifying level 54!
No wonder she was called a favorite to win the championship.
There was indeed a reason for it.
After observing others' performances for a period of time.
Su Yu understood clearly in his heart.
Among all the contestants here, the top ten in strength all possessed quasi-Heavenly King level spirits.
Those slightly lower ranked possessed only one or two quasi-Heavenly King level spirits.
The spirits of the other contestants were all around level 49.
If that was the case, then Su Yu was determined to seize the championship!
Because his Blaziken had already reached level 57!
His Salamence was also level 55!
It could be said he overwhelmed everyone.
After some time, the broadcast announced.
"Contestant Su Yu from Tianyun University and Contestant Xu Yao from Nanzhe University, please enter the arena for your match!!"
As soon as this broadcast sounded.
Both the audience and the contestants in the resting rooms felt their hearts skip a beat.
Ever since Ye Ye Lingzhi's statement was released, Su Yu's popularity was now unprecedented.
Therefore, the audience was paying close attention to him.
The contestants, however, still knew that Su Yu and Qin Qin Qin Mengwu shared an unusual relationship.
For this reason, it could be said that everyone present was quite curious about him!
On the high platform, where the principals of the various universities were seated.
Ye Ye Lingzhi, sitting in the center, perked up immediately upon hearing Su Yu's name announced over the broadcast.
Seeing this, the other principals beside her also turned their gazes toward the arena.
Tao Yu, the principal of Nanzhe University, gave a bitter smile. "I had originally hoped Xu Yao would get a bit of luck, but I never expected her to face Su Yu in the very first round."
If this had been before, Tao Yu might still have believed Xu Yao could win.
But Ye Ye Lingzhi's assessment of Su Yu left him uncertain about who would ultimately prevail.
Nevertheless, Tao Yu still hoped more than anything that Xu Yao would emerge victorious.
Hearing Tao Yu's words, the other principals felt a sense of relief in their hearts.
Since a student from Nanzhe University was the first to encounter Su Yu, they could rely on her to probe his true strength!
After all, during the matches prior to this, the principals had all noticed that Su Yu had not yet exerted his full power.
His hidden trump cards were also a source of great curiosity for everyone.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, Su Yu slowly made his way to the center of the arena.
On his other side stood his opponent, Xu Yao!
At this moment, a hint of bitterness appeared on Xu Yao's otherwise sweet face.
She had not expected her first opponent to be Su Yu.
Although she wished to fight Su Yu, she had hoped it would happen later.
However, since they had met this early, she would go all out and strive for victory!
She needed to boost her own morale as she stepped onto the arena.
On the giant screen hanging within the gymnasium, close-up shots were given to both Su Yu and Xu Yao.
A handsome young man and a beautiful young woman; in an instant, the atmosphere in the arena was ignited.
"Su Yu!! Su Yu!!"
"Go!! Go!!"
"Xu Yao, charge!! Defeat Su Yu!"
"Go Su Yu!!"
……
The spectators seated in the stands cheered enthusiastically.
This was an official competition venue, so only cheers of encouragement for the contestants would be heard.
There would be no attempts to discourage other contestants, as had happened before.
