Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, five days had passed.
In just five short days, the Zero Class team, led by Fang Yang, displayed astonishing strength in the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition arena.
In the single-player matches, the members of Zero Class each showcased their Divine Ability, demonstrating overwhelming superiority.
Xie Xie's agility-attack system speed was dazzling; his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, combined with the Light Dragon Dagger, cut a golden flash across the arena.
Tang Wu Lin's Blue Silver Grass had astonishing explosive power, perfectly combining Binding control with strength bursts.
The seemingly pliable Blue Silver Grass transformed into the most lethal weapon in his hands, firmly restraining his opponents.
Gu Yue's elemental control was masterful, with various elements changing unpredictably in her hands.
Fireballs, ice cones, and Wind Blades flowed at her fingertips, forming a terrifying elemental storm.
Zhang Yangzi's dark attribute was eerie, often plunging his opponents into dark illusions.
Wang Jinxi's Bone Dragon King Spirit was incredibly powerful; when the bone-white armor covered his entire body, both his offense and defense were perfect.
Fang Yang had yet to use his Spirit, easily defeating all opponents with only his Physical Body strength.
Within his seemingly casual punches and kicks lay a suffocating difference in strength.
In the three-person team matches, the team led by Tang Wu Lin and Gu Yue was equally invincible.
They cooperated flawlessly, utilized tactics effectively, and won every match as easily as autumn winds sweeping fallen leaves.
"Honestly, there isn't a single opponent in the youth group single-player matches who can put up a fight," Xie Xie said, crossing his arms, his face full of disdain and arrogance.
His tone revealed extreme self-confidence.
Tang Wu Lin, uncharacteristically, nodded in agreement: "Indeed, we haven't encountered an opponent who can make us serious so far."
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi exchanged glances, both nodding silently in agreement.
As former opponents, they best understood how terrifying Zero Class's current strength was.
That overwhelming disparity in power reminded them of the helplessness they felt when they first fought against Zero Class.
"What if you meet me?" Fang Yang suddenly spoke, his tone calm but instantly silencing everyone.
Although a faint smile graced his face, the invisible pressure made the air still.
Xie Xie smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Fang Yang, you guy..."
He recalled the fear of being dominated by Fang Yang during training and involuntarily shivered.
Xu Xiaoyan interjected at the right moment to ease the atmosphere: "Judging by the current rankings in the single-player matches, the final matchups will basically be between ourselves."
She blinked, playfully saying, "That's good too; at least the champion will definitely be from our Zero Class."
"I'm looking forward to it."
Fang Yang looked at everyone, a meaningful smile on his face.
That smile sent shivers down the spines of everyone except Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan.
The others secretly exchanged glances, reaching a tacit agreement: if they faced Fang Yang or Gu Yue, they would surrender directly.
The strength of these two Prodigies had already surpassed common sense; rather than being abused, it was better to focus their energy on competing against each other.
In the audience stands by the arena, many spectators whispered.
"Are these Eastsea Academy students? They're too strong!"
"Next year, I must make my child apply to Eastsea Academy!"
"I heard their strongest captain hasn't truly made his move yet..."
The performance of the Zero Class had already caused quite a stir in the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition.
Long Hengxu, the lead teacher from Eastsea Academy, wore a proud smile on his face.
He thought to himself: "Dean Yu Zhen, it would be unreasonable if you didn't promote me and give me a raise."
Thinking of his decision to strongly advocate for the establishment of Zero Class, he couldn't help but feel proud of his foresight.
Next year's Eastsea Academy enrollment would surely be full.
"Junior Brother Wu Lin..."
Senior Ouyang Zixin murmured softly, a strange light flickering in her eyes.
She looked at Tang Wu Lin's figure, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her heart rate involuntarily quickened.
Senior Sister Mu Xi also thought to Tang Wu Lin: "Junior Brother..."
She looked at her best friend Ouyang Zixin, a hint of envy flashing in her eyes.
As a Senior Sister of the Forging Master Association, she knew better than anyone how astonishing Tang Wu Lin's talent in forging was.
And now, his performance as a Spirit Master was equally stunning.
Senior Sister Liu Yuxin, who had once received Tang Wu Lin and Fang Yang, covered her mouth and chuckled: "It seems my judgment back then was correct."
"Fang Yang..."
Xu Xiaoyu clenched his fists; he had to admit.
The gap between himself and Fang Yang was now despairingly wide.
...
Just then, Ye Xinglan appeared before the Zero Class members again, her golden hair shining dazzlingly in the sunlight.
"Fang Yang, get ready; you will face me!" she declared directly.
"What?"
Fang Yang was slightly taken aback, clearly surprised by this sudden news.
He hadn't expected to still have to fight Ye Xinglan!
It turned out that Ye Xinglan had proactively requested the organizers to fight Fang Yang.
Due to his original opponent withdrawing, Fang Yang's schedule was re-adjusted, and his next match would be against this Genius girl from Shrek Academy.
Fang Yang thought to himself: "With my current strength, will I accidentally make her cry?"
As a Spirit King who had already condensed a Spirit Core, coupled with the terrifying power of his unique flames, his true combat strength had long exceeded ordinary people's imagination.
Looking at Ye Xinglan's stubborn eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse this duel.
"Alright, I accept your challenge." Fang Yang finally nodded, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
Perhaps, this would be an interesting contest. He also wanted to see how strong this Genius girl from Shrek Academy truly was.
Not long after, the competition quickly began.
When Fang Yang arrived on the competition stage, Ye Xinglan was already standing there.
Today, she wasn't wearing the Shrek Academy uniform, but a beautiful yellow dress.
"Xinglan, you look really pretty today," Fang Yang couldn't help but say.
He had to admit, Ye Xinglan was indeed stunningly beautiful.
With her attire, many people in the audience seats were probably captivated by her.
"What are you talking about?"
Ye Xinglan's usually calm face immediately turned red after Fang Yang's comment.
She never expected to hear such a comment before the match.
Ye Xinglan felt her heart suddenly race, and a strange feeling surged within her.
"She, she seems to have been teased?"
Below the competition stage, Xu Lizhi's eyes were red with jealousy, and his fists clenched, cracking.
"Ye Xinglan is mine..." he roared inwardly, but he didn't dare to actually step forward.
He could only glare fiercely at Fang Yang on the stage, wishing he could cut him into a thousand pieces with his gaze.
The elderly referee looked at both parties, and after confirming they were ready, he loudly announced: "Three, two, one, the match begins!"
As the countdown ended, the entire arena instantly fell silent; everyone held their breath, awaiting the start of this Genius duel.
Eastsea Academy vs. Shrek Academy!
