Zhao Qing's arrangement left Liao Mingxuan somewhat dumbfounded.
Wasn't I supposed to go first?
Zhao Qing didn't offer an explanation, merely signaling Chen Lang to enter the fray.
The reason for this arrangement was that he wanted to see if this guy was truly a Second Generation Ancestor.
If he turned out to be an utterly useless Second Generation Ancestor, he might have grounds to voice his dissatisfaction to the school administration later.
If not... well, Zhao Qing hadn't really considered that possibility. After all, Chen Lang's cultivation fluctuations were very weak.
Given his own peak intermediate cultivation, he didn't believe a student like Chen Lang could hide anything from him.
At this moment, although Chen Lang appeared calm on the surface, inwardly he was ecstatic.
This chance to show off, it's finally here!
"Do you have any problems?" Seeing Chen Lang standing still, Zhao Qing's tone carried a hint of sternness.
It seemed he thought Chen Lang was chickening out?
"No."
"Then why aren't you going up?"
"Alright."
After responding, Chen Lang walked directly towards the Fighting Ground's stage.
Upon reaching the stage, Chen Lang looked at Zhao Qing, who had a stern expression, and suddenly felt that this teacher was quite good!
He was practically handing him an opportunity to show off.
"Quick, look, they've put someone on the other side..."
"It's Ming Cong from Class 3!!"
"They're sending out a seeded player right off the bat!"
Liao Mingxuan was slightly surprised to see it was Ming Cong.
He thought they would send out some minor characters first, not Ming Cong. As far as he knew, Ming Cong should have also reached the intermediate level...
Although he might not have mastered the star chart yet, he was definitely an Intermediate Mage.
Someone suddenly remarked, "I wonder what the strength of our new young master Chen is. Will he be instantly defeated in one move?"
"Coming from the Bashu Chen Clan, he shouldn't be so frail... I think he might last two or three moves."
"..."
"Silence!"
As the crowd began to chatter, Zhao Qing spoke coldly.
Although he disliked this type of Second Generation Ancestor, Chen Lang was still a student in his class, and he didn't like this kind of scene.
Following Teacher Zhao's command, the others wisely shut their mouths.
Meanwhile, on stage.
Ming Cong, after entering the stage, was also somewhat surprised. In his opinion, the one who would come out first would definitely be that show-off Liao Mingxuan.
But unexpectedly, it was a new student who had just enrolled?
In that instant, Ming Cong felt bored.
As the two took the stage, the Director of the Green Campus, who was serving as the referee, announced, "Both sides, prepare yourselves!"
Ming Cong didn't seem to plan on making any preparations. Instead, he adopted a victorious posture: "Classmate, get down before you get hurt. I don't usually hold back when I attack."
Chen Lang's face was full of smiles, as if he were looking at an idiot.
Ming Cong naturally noticed the mockery in his smile, but in his eyes, a contestant he could easily defeat in a flash was merely throwing a tantrum out of helplessness.
"Begin!"
The Director of the Green Campus announced, but Chen Lang remained unmoved.
On the contrary, Ming Cong was rapidly connecting star tracks. As he drew the star tracks, a ruthless expression appeared on his face.
"I gave you a chance, but you're useless. Go lie in bed!"
"Lightning Seal - Furious Strike!"
Purple lightning marks writhed and moved freely across the stage. Instantly, long arcs of electricity crackled and hissed at Chen Lang's feet!
"Sizzle, sizzle..."
When this lightning struck Chen Lang, the expected thunderous roar did not occur.
Even Ming Cong's lightning power seemed to vanish into thin air.
This scene stunned everyone present, even the Director of the Green Campus looked somewhat incredulous!
Chen Lang hadn't done anything, so why did Ming Cong's attack have no effect at all?
Although Chen Lang was not attacked, a faint mist was still rising from him, a residual effect of the lightning's baptism.
With 'Black Annihilation' on him, and his cultivation at the intermediate level, this mere beginner level lightning magic couldn't harm him in the slightest.
"Playing with lightning in front of me? You think you're worthy?"
As Chen Lang spoke, a star track flashed and vanished. With a gesture pointing to the sky, more dense lightning imprints appeared overhead.
"Zzzt zzzt..."
"Rumble rumble~~!!!"
After a slight tremor, the surrounding lightning crazily converged towards Ming Cong.
Ming Cong was completely stunned. He never expected that this new student not only endured his 'ultimate move' but could also counterattack immediately?
Almost instantly, he put on an armor magic tool.
"Boom!!!"
However, the moment the lightning struck his body, he realized Chen Lang's lightning was black!
And the power of these lightning imprints was more than double his own!
"Boom boom boom!!!"
"Ahhh ahhh ahhh!!!"
The lightning imprints exploded, the muffled thunder and screams sounding almost simultaneously.
Although he wore magic armor, it was clearly not strong enough to resist the Thunder Power. As a lightning mage, knowing there weren't many strong lightning mages in Class 1, he hadn't prepared armor magic tools for brute force resistance.
"Plop!"
When the power of the lightning imprints fully erupted, Ming Cong was already numb all over and had fainted on the spot.
The scene fell into an absolute silence. Especially those who had been saying Chen Lang would be defeated in a few moves now didn't dare to breathe too loudly.
This was no Second Generation Ancestor; this was clearly a dragon crossing the river.
Chen Lang casually dealt with his opponent and noticed the Director in charge of judging hadn't spoken for a long time. He asked, "Director, aren't you going to announce the result? Are you planning to make me take action again?"
"Ah... Oh, this match, Chen Lang from Class 1 wins!" The Director snapped back to attention. He immediately had the healer teacher come onto the stage to provide treatment and hurriedly announced the result.
This Director of the Green Campus was also a high-level mage. Although not widely experienced, he had decades of life experience.
But such an outrageous event today was definitely the first time he had encountered!
He couldn't quite understand, so the Director inquired, "Student Chen Lang, you just now..."
Chen Lang frowned. Was this New Student Director out of his mind, wanting to know everything?
Despite his displeasure, he casually brushed it off with a perfunctory reply: "Oh, his lightning element was too weak; I could withstand it."
Director Zhou Peng also realized that other people's secrets were not something he could pry into so easily.
But at this moment, he couldn't help but believe the rumors: the Chen Clan had indeed produced an incredible prodigy!
Chen Lang wasn't very surprised by their reactions, as this was the outcome he had long predicted.
Below the stage.
Zhao Qing was also completely dumbfounded. He truly hadn't expected this Chen Family kid, who looked like a Second Generation Ancestor, to possess such strength.
Had he misjudged?
The moment Chen Lang made his move, that aura was definitely not that of a beginner level mage. He thought he had gotten a hot potato, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a treasure!
