Chapter 63 - Chapter 63: Freshman Event

While the three were excitedly discussing,

Fang Yu walked over and sat down beside them: "What are you talking about?"

"The Beast Battle Competition."

"Fang Yu, want to team up? Want to team up?" Qin Shuo asked twice in a row:

"We're planning to form a group to block the Summoning Element."

"My Water Element can handle defense, Yang Yan's Earth Element can control, and you and Lu Ran's Space and Lightning Elements can just blow through everything…"

Fang Yu shook his head. "No, you guys go ahead. I have another target."

He felt that sticking with these three wouldn't be as efficient as going solo.

This time, he planned to stand out on his own.

"Ah… alright then."

Although Qin Shuo wanted to team up with Fang Yu—after all, his Space Element magic made him quite formidable, he could only accept the refusal and felt a bit regretful.

At noon, Fang Yu tidied up his appearance, making himself look more energetic and handsome.

For this competition, he intended to become the main character.

Soon, he arrived at the Green Arena.

Since there was only one person in the Space Element, there was no designated viewing section.

So, he went to the Ice Element section, found a seat, and looked around.

The Green Arena was built on a grand scale, with a dueling field even larger than a football field.

Normally, it was used for major competitions, but today the dueling ground had been transformed into a massive barrier cage known as the "Beast Battle Iron Cage."

The cage was surrounded by tiered seating on all four sides, rows upon rows packed tightly together, capable of holding around ten thousand people. Only a wealthy institution like Pearl Academy could afford to build such a massive arena.

Not long after Fang Yu sat down, students began entering one after another, and the crowd gradually built up the grand atmosphere.

By around 3 PM, the entire arena was filled. Young, energetic faces were everywhere, along with countless pairs of slender, youthful legs, aside from brothels and academies, it was hard to see such a large gathering of young women coming and going in society.

It could truly be described as a sea of people.

"Before I begin my speech, I want to confirm something with all of you." As the ceremony started, the one addressing the massive crowd was naturally Dean Xiao.

"If your goal is simply to become a respected mage in society, earning a high salary and living a high-quality life then I must responsibly tell you, you've come to the wrong place."

"Mages who graduate from Pearl Academy must possess the ability to change the world. They must be heroes capable of shouldering the responsibility of protecting humanity. If anyone only seeks the former, we can hand you a graduation certificate and a letter of recommendation right now, allowing you to live that kind of life. Please do not occupy one of Pearl Academy's valuable spots. Wealth and fame are not what we lack, what we lack is a heart that eternally pursues the pinnacle of magic!"

Fang Yu sat in the viewing area, not too far from where Dean Xiao was speaking.

He carefully observed the reactions of those around him to Dean Xiao's words, almost everyone's eyes were shining.

These words were truly domineering. At a time when everyone pursued fame and wealth, this dean was telling them that obtaining a Pearl Academy diploma already meant gaining those things, but were those who had made it into this nationally renowned magic academy really satisfied with just that?

In the face of supreme magic, all fame and fortune were nothing but fleeting clouds!

This was the philosophy conveyed by Pearl Magic Academy.

However in reality, how many people could truly ignore fame and fortune?

Even Fang Yu himself couldn't guarantee that he didn't care about them.

"Today is the day for you to fully showcase your abilities. First, let's invite today's six main stars onto the stage, they are the freshmen of the Summoning Element!"

Dean Xiao didn't speak much, nor did he let others give speeches one by one. He decisively moved straight into today's main event.

Perhaps at the beginning, many freshmen still held the mindset of keeping a low profile after just entering the academy and might not have planned to participate in this Beast Battle Competition. But after hearing that speech, many could no longer hold themselves back.

They had already eliminated all competitors in their respective regions during the magic assessment, so why should they keep their heads down now?

The academy's rare resources wouldn't fall onto someone who remained silent. What this academy needed was competition fierce competition!

Amid the cheers of the entire crowd, the six stepped onto the high platform.

"Perhaps many of you feel dissatisfied—why do Summoning Element students become the focus the moment they enroll?"

"No problem. Defeat them, and you will be today's true protagonists!" Dean Xiao declared loudly.

The entire arena instantly erupted, especially the freshmen. Each of them was eager, wishing they could jump onto the stage immediately and fight!

"So, who's going first?" Dean Xiao looked at the six Summoning Element students with a smile.

"I'll go. These guys all want to use our summoned beasts to make a name for themselves, I'll make them all crawl on the ground!" Wu Buzhi stepped forward without hesitation.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

Wu Buzhi strode toward the very center of the arena, connecting with the Summoning Plane.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~

The next moment, ripples appeared in the surrounding space, causing faint air currents to stir, and the dust on the ground began to tremble.

Before Wu Buzhi, points of light appeared out of thin air, outlining a translucent summoning formation. Within ripples like water, the Bone Armored Turtle emerged.

Bone Armored Turtle!

Advanced Servant-level!

Its shoulders, back, and limbs were covered in sharp protrusions, making it look like a fully armed killing machine.

The next moment four challengers stepped onto the stage.

Seeing this, the Bone Armored Turtle slammed its limbs against the ground. The arena shook violently, and the four freshmen were instantly blasted away.

In the blink of an eye, all four challengers were eliminated.

After defeating four people, Wu Buzhi immediately became arrogant, and his Bone Armored Turtle made the subsequent challengers hesitate.

However, this was Pearl Academy, one of the top institutions in the country. There was no shortage of powerful challengers!

Sure enough, a chubby guy swaggered onto the stage. A green star map appeared beneath his feet, magical radiance shining like a natural painting, brimming with vitality.

After the emerald-green star map was completed, energy gathered toward his hands, condensing into a single green seed.

Facing the Bone Armored Turtle, he tossed the green seed, drawing a beautiful arc of green light.

The moment the seed hit the ground, the entire arena seemed to quake. The earth cracked open as deep green plants burst forth from underground, growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As they grew, they intertwined and climbed over one another, their bodies expanding continuously, forming a plant prison.

Vines coiled around, binding the Bone Armored Turtle's legs and trapping it within.

"Fire Burst!"

A large mass of crimson flames exploded midair, waves of heat surging outward as the smell of burning filled the air.

Casting Basic-Tier Fire Burst, the chubby guy had crimson flames burning in both hands, continuously launching fireballs at high speed.
