Huo Yuhao stood in the middle of the group, his eyes sweeping over Dai Huabin not far away, and he was somewhat surprised.
I remember kicking him once, even if I held back a bit, he should still be bedridden for at least a few years before he can stand up again.
However, at this moment, Dai Huabin stood there with his chest out and his head held high, completely unharmed.
Huo Yuhao decided not to overthink it; it didn't matter anymore. He yawned and waited for Yan Shaozhe to announce the draw.
"I'm sure everyone already knows me, so I won't say anything more." Yan Shaozhe smiled gently, holding the lottery box in his hand.
Yan Shaozhe announced loudly, " Freshman Class One, Huo Yuhao's team, please come forward to draw lots."
Wang Dong'er gave Huo Yuhao a hard shove, Huo Yuhao to stumble. He barely managed to regain his balance and helplessly walked towards Yan Shaozhe.
Yan Shaozhe smiled and handed the box to Huo Yuhao. "Young man, don't be nervous. I wish you and your team good luck."
Huo Yuhao nodded, rummaged through the box for a while, and handed his lottery results to Yan Shaozhe.
" Huo Yuhao's team, second pick."
" Freshman Class Five, Dai Huabin's team, step forward to draw lots."
When Huo Yuhao returned to the team, Dai Huabin happened to walk up. He looked full of energy, as if he had taken some kind of tonic. "Bang!" Huo Yuhao was bumped by his shoulder.
Huo Yuhao fell to the ground, rubbing his bottom as he slowly got up.
"Hmph! Trash is trash." Dai Huabin snorted coldly and walked up without looking back.
Zhu Lu, standing in the group, frowned slightly, a hint of worry in her eyes, and sighed helplessly.
" Dai Huabin, what do you mean by this?!"
Wang Dong'er reacted the most intensely; if it weren't for the teachers around her holding her back, she might have rushed forward.
Xiao Xiao remained calm. Seeing Huo Yuhao walk back to the group with an indifferent expression, she didn't say anything. Instead, she looked Huo Yuhao over to make sure he was alright before letting out a sigh of relief.
" Dai Huabin's team, number one pick."
The draw ended quickly.
Yan Shaozhe laughed heartily, looking at the twelve energetic people in front of him, and said, "Haha, youth is indeed full of energy. I'm looking forward to everyone's performance later."
Then, with a wave of his hand, he announced the start.
Wang Dong'er, based on their assigned spots, dragged the two of them directly into the venue.
Three boys were standing opposite them. They were all about the same size and didn't look particularly special. They were warming up, preparing for the upcoming battle.
Wang Dong'er clenched her fists tightly, staring at Dai Huabin in another area not far away, and said angrily, "Hmph! He got off too easy. Later, I'll definitely beat him to a pulp."
"Aren't you right, Yuhao?"
Wang Dong'er turned around and smiled brightly.
However, to Huo Yuhao, that smile was somewhat unsettling.
"Both sides, get ready, the match is about to begin," the proctor announced from the center of the playing area.
Yan Shaozhe sat down on the high platform, constantly looking at the lines on both sides. Looking at the passionate students, he smiled with satisfaction.
" Zhou Sichen, Freshman Class Ten, a master of Power Attack System Battle Soul Master."
" Freshman Class Ten, Long Xiangyue, Master of Agility Attack System Battle Soul Master."
" Freshman Class Ten, Cao Jinxuan, Control System Battle Soul Master."
The three men's strong and powerful figures demonstrated their confidence, and they showed no fear in the face of Wang Dong'er, who was famous among the freshmen.
Wang Dong'er and the other two also announced their names. After both sides had stood still, the proctor waved his hand.
"The match begins."
The semi-finals officially began, and on the other side, in Zone 1 where Dai Huabin was located, a fierce competition was also underway.
Wang Dong'er took the lead, her toes barely touching the ground as she charged forward. Her dazzling butterfly wings unfurled behind her, and her speed suddenly increased, almost matching that of Agility Attack System Soul Master of the same level.
Zhou Sichen and the other two were stunned. They had already studied Wang Dong'er's fighting style. Although they knew she liked to charge ahead alone, they were still taken aback by her sudden burst of power when they actually encountered her.
Long Xiangyue, being Agility Attack System, did not rush forward directly. Instead, he hid behind Zhou Sichen, Power Attack System, and lined up in a straight line with Cao Jinxuan and the other two.
The three's Martial Soul also appeared at this moment.
A special book appeared in Zhou Sichen's hand, its pages slowly turning. Two Yellow Soul Ring flashed, and out of thin air appeared a bear shimmering with yellow light and a tiger engulfed in flames.
Cao Jinxuan's gaze sharpened, and his entire body emanated a distorted halo, making the space around him appear blurry even upon close observation. Above his head, an exquisite clock quietly rose.
The entire bell is supported by an arched structure reminiscent of a city gate, with a white round dial inlaid at the top. Below, in the support, a swaying weight engraved with gold patterns gently oscillates, faintly emanating the bell's name.
Long Xiangyue suddenly had a boomerang in his hand. He threw it forward with both hands, and the boomerang spun in the air before flying back into his hands, with two Hundred-Year Soul Ring pulsating on it.
Golden light shone from Wang Dong'er's wings, and clusters of luminous energy gathered around her, locking onto the three people in front of her.
"Not good, Cao Jinxuan, quick! Interrupt her Soul Power output!" Zhou Sichen shouted, commanding the two energy beasts to pounce on Wang Dong'er in front of him.
Wang Dong'er's lips curled into a smile, and she said firmly to the person behind her, " Xiao Xiao! Hurry up!"
Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes, somewhat reluctantly, and looked at Huo Yuhao. Seeing that he nodded, she then made her move.
The black cauldron appeared in front of Wang Dong'er in an instant, blocking the two wild beasts.
Sharp claws slashed across the cauldron, sending countless sparks flying and creating a piercing noise.
At this moment, Cao Jinxuan's skill was also ready, and an invisible light instantly enveloped Li Wang Dong'er.
Under the influence of the light, Wang Dong'er was surprised to find that the light clusters that had appeared around her began to shrink slowly and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Moreover, she discovered that her Martial Soul was uncontrollably retracting.
"What kind of Soul Skill is this?" Wang Dong'er was somewhat surprised, but she didn't panic and quickly thought about what to do next.
Before Wang Dong'er Wang Dong'er even think, a boomerang appeared mysteriously above Wang Dong'er and flew rapidly toward her head.
" Slowing."
A melodious flute tune suddenly rang out in the competition venue.
Following the sound, the black cauldron had disappeared, and in Xiao Xiao's hand appeared an exquisite jade flute, its phoenix pattern shining brightly.
Under the influence of this melodious sound, the attack speed of Zhou Sichen and his two companions was reduced by 70%!
