Seeing that Wang Xiao and the other two had suddenly disappeared, Academy Head Jiang immediately switched the surveillance camera to the panoramic view.
Almost at the same time, they saw a white shadow flying through the forest.
Although there was only a blurry shadow, it was obvious at a glance that it was Wang Xiao’s Ice Thunder Horn Wolf.
Looking at the direction of the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf, Academy Head Jiang immediately frowned. “He’s preparing to rush straight to the position? Isn’t
this too impulsive?”
“If he wasn’t always so impulsive, how could I bear to let him come to you and suffer a setback?”
Huang Tingwei sneered, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes. “Just because you have a few high-level mutated beasts, you don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth… It’s also a good thing to suffer a little. Old Jiang, can the people you arranged handle it?”
Academy Head Jiang smiled confidently. “Just wait and see!”
[Star Fragmented Sea], nameless island.
The Ice Thunder Horn Wolf ran wildly in the forest. The trees along the way were broken at the waist and it almost rushed straight to the center of the island.
Such a huge commotion naturally attracted the other party’s attention.
The [Flame Magic Tower] went all out and fireballs blasted out as if they were free. Unfortunately, their speed was always a little slow. They could only helplessly explode behind the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf].
Soon, the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] approached the center of the island. Seeing this, the other party immediately adjusted the angle of its attack. A few fireballs landed close and exploded, forcing the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] back.
Seeing that the other party had gone quiet, the person controlling the [Flame Magic Tower] was delighted. Just as he was about to adjust his angle and pursue the victory, a voice suddenly sounded behind him. “Stop attacking immediately, or I’ll shatter your lord’s core.”
“Who’s there!”
That person exclaimed and hurriedly turned around. He saw that Wang Xiao had already arrived behind him at some point.
Wang Xiao was also stunned when he saw that person. He originally thought that he would see Liu Yuyang here, but he did not expect that the person controlling the [Flame Magic Tower] was actually a stranger!
It was not too accurate to say that he was a stranger because Wang Xiao had seen him once before. He was the student from Class o who had quarreled with Li Kaifu on the field.
A trace of doubt appeared in his heart, but the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] was still desperately dodging the fireball attack. Wang Xiao did not have time to think too much.
He raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The [Roaming Dragon
Concealment] was instantly deactivated. The figure of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] ‘floated” from the ground and stared at the student from Class o with an unfriendly gaze.
“Stop attacking, or I’ll shatter your lord core!”
Wang Xiao repeated again. The [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] immediately took a step forvvard and bared its teeth, as if it wanted to swallow the other party alive!
Facing such a fierce mutated beast, that person was immediately frightened until his face turned pale. He hurriedly reached out and pressed on the [Flame Magic Tower], and the spewing fireball immediately stopped.
Without the fireball attack, the pressure on the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] decreased drastically. With a few leaps, it approached. Two figures jumped down from its back. They were Zhou Xiruo and Li Kaifu.
“A diversion?”
Academy Head Jiang, who was in front of the screen, was enlightened. Then, he looked at Huang Tingwei in confusion. “This doesn’t seem to be Wang Xiao’s style, right? Did you secretly guide him?”
“Would you believe me if I said no?”
Huang Tingwei asked in return, the disappointment in his tone undisguised. “If this is the opponent you carefully chose for Wang Xiao, then I might have to reevaluate your ability.”
“Who are you looking down on?”
Academy Head Jiang looked displeased. “What’s the hurry? This is just the beginning. The good show is still to come!”
[Star Fragmented Sea], nameless island.
After being surrounded by the three of them, the student from Class o was much calmer than before.
Wang Xiao found it strange and simply asked, “You don’t seem to be afraid at all. Is it because your helper is nearby?”
As he spoke, Wang Xiao turned around and looked around. Because the terrain here was higher, the field of vision was wider. It did not look like someone was lying in ambush.
“You’re Wang Xiao, right?”
The student from Class o sized up Wang Xiao and asked, “I’ve seen you on the live broadcast of the lord competition, but you seem to be different from the live broadcast.”
“I’ve lost some weight recently.”
Wang Xiao casually spouted some nonsense. He looked at the other party and said coldly, “You can’t escape anymore. Call your helper out. I’ll let you all be eliminated together.”
“I don’t have any helpers.”
The student from Class o shook his head and suddenly revealed a shy smile. “My name is Jia Bo. Actually, I’m a fan of yours. It’s my honor to be eliminated with you.”
“What do you mean by that?”
Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment and could not react. He saw Jia Bo suddenly raise his hand and slap the [Flame Magic Tower]. The top of the Magic Tower exploded with a bang, and a surging pillar of fire shot into the sky!
“This is bad!”
Wang Xiao’s expression changed and he hurriedly shouted, “This is a trap! Leave quickly!”
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Xiao had already flipped over and jumped onto the back of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. Although Zhou Xiruo and Li Kaifu did not know what was going on, they quickly climbed onto the back of the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] and immediately rushed into the distance!
“It’s useless!”
Jia Bo looked at the backs of the three of them and laughed. “From the moment you landed on the island, you were already destined to be eliminated! Their goal is the entire island. You can’t escape! ”
Before he could finish his sentence, a huge wave suddenly rose on the coastline around the island!
Wang Xiao and the other two had only rushed out for less than a hundred meters when the dozens of meters tall wave had already surrounded them.
However, the strange thing was that this huge wave was dozens of meters tall, but there were no signs of collapse. Instead, it stretched up until it finally gathered into a huge dome that turned the entire island upside down.
In front of the screen.
When Huang Tingwei saw the huge wave that suddenly surged, his expression turned cold as he asked in surprise, “This kind of scene is not something a venue card can do. Could it be that your academy also has the talent of [Element Overlord]?”
“Brother Huang, you flatter me! A top genius like Yi Han from your academy is rare even in thousands of years. How can our academy have one?”
Although Academy Head Jiang said that he was overpraising, he had a smug expression on his face. “My student is only a small [Sea God Apostle].”
“[Sea God Apostle]?!”
Huang Tingwei exclaimed and stood up from his chair. “The legendary top-notch talent closest to the [Twelve Heavenly Gods]! Your academy actually has such a genius?
“What do you mean by that?”
Academy Head Jiang looked displeased. “Your Yuheng can have the [Elemental
Overlord], so why can’t our Nine Heavens have the [Sea God Apostle]?”
Huang Tingwei ignored Academy Head Jiang and only stared at the screen with a solemn expression. His malicious eyes flickered, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
“I didn’t expect you to actually have such a trump card. It’s difficult for Wang Xiao not to lose this time!”
Huang Tingwei read coldly with a dark expression. Then, he looked at Academy Head Jiang and smiled bitterly. “Congratulations in advance.. The champion of this academy ranking assessment should be your Nine Heavens Academy!”
