Beast Taming: My first spirit beast was a frog junior?

Chapter 38 Ten Thousand in Hand

Waiting area in the lobby on the first floor of the Beast Tamer Association.

When the seven students walked towards the spot but couldn't find Xu Xian, Zhou Li shouted, "Good!"

"Um?"

The seven students who came out stared at Zhou Li with hostile eyes.

Zhou Li gave an awkward smile and turned his face away. The golden-armored beast followed suit and seemed quite uncomfortable under the gaze of many people.

The little guy is quite shy.

Li Yang looked at the two students who possessed bronze-type spirit beasts, and then at the other six people, including Zhou Li and Qian Hong, who also possessed bronze-type spirit beasts.

He shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that we, who possess bronze-type spirit beasts, couldn't even make it into the top four. I wonder if the champion will be Xu Xian or that girl."

"It must be that girl, her Snowflake Rabbit is insanely strong!" said a student from the same county as Li Yang who hadn't left because he wanted to see the result.

This student wasn't the only one who thought this way; many others, including Qian Hongwen, who wanted to know who would win first place and stay here, shared the same idea.

As for Xu Xian, that frog junior is very strong, but no matter how strong he is, can he defeat that freakish snow rabbit?

Even Zhou Li didn't think Xu Xian could win first place.

I just hope Xu Xian doesn't meet her too early, and that he gets a second or third place.

The association's underground battlefield.

Since there are only seven students remaining, one student will skip a turn.

That's how it should normally be, but suddenly a girl wearing big frog-shaped glasses approached Yu Liping.

"You're saying you're giving up?"

"Is there an emergency at home that you need to rush over to?"

"But please hold on a little longer..."

"Can't wait? Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Rules are rules, but you've performed exceptionally well. I'll apply to the association for some funding for you."

"No need to thank me, I'll arrange for someone to take you."

In just a few words, Xu Xian and the other six students, though not entirely clear on the details, roughly understood that the girl with the big toad glasses would be unable to participate in the upcoming battle.

This made the students, including Xu Xian, breathe a sigh of relief.

Although Xu Xian was confident in Wawa, he was by no means arrogant.

Snow Rabbit's performance was simply beyond what Wawa could handle at her current level.

I was just hoping not to run into them so I could get a higher ranking, since that means more money.

Now I have absolutely no worries.

Watching Yu Liping see the girl with the big toad glasses and the snow rabbit off, Xu Xian looked at the other five people.

He's determined to win this championship (worth 100,000)!

In the lobby on the first floor, Qian Hongwen stared intently at the corner behind him.

All he wants now is to see Xu Xian, who has a good relationship with Zhou Li, eliminated.

Instead of waiting for a while, Yu Liping came out with the girl in the big toad glasses and her snow rabbit.

"What's going on?" Qian Hongwen asked, puzzled.

The other students who stayed to see the results were also full of doubts.

Yu Liping glanced at him and said calmly, "Shi Shi has an urgent matter at home and is leaving early."

"How will the competition be judged?" Zhou Li asked hurriedly.

Yu Liping said, "There are six people left. The top three will be decided, and the three who lose will be decided to determine the fourth."

"This is not fair!" Qian Hongwen said through gritted teeth, his eyes red.

Losing to Shi Shi is one thing, but at least Shi Shi's first place proves that he is only weaker than her. Now that Shi Shi has withdrawn, what does that mean?

"Luck is also a part of ability. You think it's unfair, but you're not the only one who was eliminated by Shi Shi," Yu Liping said coldly.

After saying that, he left with Shi Shi and the Snow Rabbit.

Qian Hongwen's face turned ashen.

He had already learned that Xu Xian, besides defeating Li Yang, also had that girl who possessed the bronze-type spirit beast, the Shadow Leopard.

Of the remaining five, none could compare to the other.

"Damn it!" Qian Hongwen thought irritably.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Young Master Qian, you lost, so what's wrong with you? You can't accept defeat." Zhou Li's mocking voice pierced Qian Hongwen's ears.

Xiao Lili put her hands on her hips and said, "Zhou Li, stop talking nonsense. Besides, Xu Xian didn't defeat Shi Shi. It's obvious that she's the strongest among us. Xu Xian just got lucky!"

"Trying to find a bargain? You try doing that." Zhou Li sneered.

Qian Hongwen snorted coldly, losing all interest in staying any longer, and left with his blue-eyed white ape.

Once he left, Xiao Lili naturally wouldn't stay.

The two annoying guys left, and two students from the waiting area walked out.

They were classmates of Xu Xian, Zhou Li, and Xiao Lili at Shucheng No. 3 Middle School.

The two men wore expressions of ingratiation.

However, Qian Hongwen didn't dare to even touch Zhou Li and Xu Xian before, but now that Qian Hongwen left, he came up to them, which really displeased Zhou Li.

They ignored him and sat down, and an awkward expression immediately appeared on their faces.

Having been met with indifference, they lost interest in staying and left.

Li Yang then sat down next to Zhou Li.

Li Yang smiled and extended his hand, "My name is Li Yang, the one your friend defeated in the second round."

Zhou Li reached out and loosened his grip slightly. "Hello, I'm Zhou Li."

"Can you tell me about your friend? He's the one who trained such an amazing junior, and we'll be classmates in the same major when school starts in a month. I'd like to know more about him," Li Yang said.

"Then you've come to the right person." Zhou Li raised his nose and tilted his head slightly, looking quite pleased with himself.

Seeing Li Yang's polite and gentle demeanor, Zhou Li introduced Xu Xian, "Brother Xian is a top student at our Shucheng No. 3 Middle School..."

As the two chatted, many people listened intently, including the female beast tamer of the Shadow Leopard.

After all, the only people who could defeat a bronze-type opponent with a black iron-type opponent were Shi Shi and Xu Xian.

Shi Shi seems aloof and unapproachable. Her face is obscured by her large, thick glasses, giving the impression that she keeps people at arm's length.

Xu Xian has a handsome face and looks much more normal. He is also very strong, so it's reasonable for him to know some information about the other party.

After all, apart from this small competition organized by the association specifically for the new recruits, the upcoming Newcomer King competition is the real official competition that can get them into the Dragon Kingdom's school system.

Even if he is just the new king of Tree City, he can be featured in the Dragon Kingdom's school system and his name will be widely known. Who wouldn't want to compete for it?

This brings both glory and profit!

Just as Zhou Li was enthusiastically introducing Xu Xian to Li Yang...

Battleground in the basement.

A boy wearing black-rimmed glasses shook his head in frustration. In front of him, a spirit beast that looked very similar to a platypus but was twice as large landed helplessly.

His scarlet eyes returned to their normal brownish-black color, and his fierce expression softened.

Violent Duck, Water type, Black Iron grade, with the talent "Berserk Heart".

As its name suggests, it possesses a violent nature from head to toe.

It appears mild-mannered in normal times, but once it enters battle, it unleashes a berserk state, greatly enhancing all its stats.

However, the longer the battle goes on, the easier it is to lose control due to excessive ferocity.

The boy who possesses the Violent Duck is the strongest among the ordinary students. He has trained the Violent Duck to the point where it is only one step away from the intermediate level, and it can also suppress the state of activating the Berserk Heart when entering battle.

It could be said that if it weren't for Zhou Li and his group, but also Xu Xian, he would be the strongest among these students.

Now, however, he can only suffer a crushing defeat at the hands of Xu Xian and rank second.

"We won!"

Unlike the dejected boy, Xu Xian picked up Wawa and lifted her up.

"We are the champions!"
