In the blink of an eye, the fourth round arrived.
The six remaining teams would compete to determine the top three.
The six teams drew lots to determine their opponents: Godwind Academy versus Spirit Hall Academy's team, Skywater Academy versus Star Luo Royal Academy, and Heaven Dou Royal Academy versus Thunderclap Academy.
The stands of Temple Square were nearly full, and even the aisles were packed tight.
Every match of the top-six round gripped the audience's attention. Today's three clashes in particular covered nearly all the highlights of this tournament.
Shui Yue'er carried Jiang Lan all the way to Skywater Academy's resting area. The moment his butt touched a chair, a Spirit Hall staff member jogged over and handed Shui Bing'er a silk scroll bearing the match schedule.
"Skywater Academy versus Star Luo Royal Academy, third match." Shui Bing'er glanced over it, folded the scroll, and looked at her teammates. "We still have time to warm up. Star Luo Royal Academy is strong, so stay sharp."
"With Jiang Lan here, we're guaranteed to win." Shui Yue'er confidently rubbed Jiang Lan's head.
"Guaranteed my ass. Don't underestimate them." Jiang Lan yawned and tried hard to put on a stern little face, but his penguin outfit made him utterly unthreatening.
The first match was Godwind Academy versus Spirit Hall Academy.
Godwind Academy's captain, Feng Xiaotian, stood at the very front of his team, his silver-gray short hair lifting slightly in the wind.
Ever since taking Jiang Lan as his master, his entire demeanor had changed considerably. He was no longer as impetuous and flamboyant as before; a calmness now lingered in his eyes.
But Spirit Hall Academy was no ordinary opponent. The moment Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan stepped onto the field, thunderous cheers surged from the stands.
