"Match 36 is about to begin."
On the field.
The sound coming from the loudspeakers filled the entire stadium.
Qiao Xingxing turned to look at Lu Yuan.
"Junior Lu, it's your turn to go on stage."
Lu Yuan nodded, then prepared to get up and leave the lounge to go to the examination room.
Qiao Xingxing suddenly called out to him from behind.
"Junior Lu, the next exam includes a team battle, so there's no need to push yourself too hard this time. Prioritize maintaining your condition."
Qiao Xingxing's gaze was indifferent.
Her and Cui Peng's exams hadn't started yet, but their opponents were just ordinary students from a small academy, posing no threat whatsoever to them, who came from Longteng Academy.
So it doesn't matter if Lu Yuan loses to Zhang Tiannan in this match.
One defeat doesn't mean anything.
But on the contrary.
If Lu Yuan is unable to participate in the subsequent matches due to Zhang Tiannan's defeat, their situation in the team competition will become extremely difficult.
Team competitions award more points.
It can significantly influence the final rankings in the joint school exams.
So even if Lu Yuan loses this match, it doesn't matter; her real goal is the team competition later on.
Cui Peng clearly shared similar thoughts with Qiao Xingxing.
"You just need to go up there, pretend to throw a couple of punches, and then admit defeat! You can't win anyway, so don't even release your beast!"
Upon hearing this...
Lu Yuan gave them a deep look, then curled the corners of his lips into a smile.
"Don't worry, I'm sure I can beat that kid Zhang Tiannan."
? ? !
"Hey! Did you even hear what I just said? Don't do anything rash just because you're angry!" Cui Peng couldn't help but roar.
He hates those show-off brats the most!
I have no idea what the college teachers were thinking, that they would send someone like this to participate in the joint college entrance exam!
Lu Yuan didn't talk to them much and turned to leave the lounge.
Watching his departing figure, Qiao Xingxing narrowed her eyes, revealing a meaningful expression.
...
Lu Yuan arrived at the examination venue.
As soon as I stepped onto the stage, I saw a young man standing opposite me.
Beside him stood a saber-toothed tiger, three meters tall and five meters long.
The lightning flashing on those half-meter-long saber teeth would surely cause serious injury if one were to be struck by them.
"So you're my opponent this time? You don't look like much. If you've run into me, you'd better surrender now."
"Otherwise, my Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger would tear your beast to shreds. I'm sure someone like you wouldn't be able to afford a second beast, would you?"
Zhang Tiannan laughed loudly, his eyes filled with arrogance and conceit.
They clearly didn't take Lu Yuan seriously.
He's the son of the dean of Tiannan College!
Few people at Tiannan Academy dare to defy him directly. Even if someone can beat him on the field, they will choose to hold back.
Otherwise, the other student will be forced to withdraw from school the next day.
Most beast tamers would not let their academic career end because of the outcome of a single competition.
"You talk too much nonsense."
Lu Yuan impatiently picked at his ear, his expression even more nonchalant than Zhang Tiannan's.
In his eyes, Zhang Tiannan seemed to be nothing more than a clown.
This directly ignited Zhang Tiannan's anger.
"Kid, don't be ungrateful! Let me see what kind of beast you have. Probably some unknown trash beast."
"Low-level beasts are no match for my Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger."
I heard the other person talking for a long time.
Lu Yuan spoke with a look of disdain.
"Are you done talking? If you're done, let's start fighting! I don't have that much time to put on a comedy show with you!"
Seeing that Lu Yuan didn't care about her at all and still seemed completely unafraid of her.
Without any further hesitation, he spoke loudly.
"Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger, use Thunderous Fury, I will tear him and his tamed beast to shreds."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan no longer hesitated and directly summoned Crimson Phosphorus from the Beast Taming Space.
As soon as it appeared, Red Phosphorus stared coldly at the Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger opposite it.
He could tell at a glance that the other party's strength was at most the fifth level of the Heavenly Evolution Realm, and he could easily kill such a guy.
"Red Phosphorus, I won't give you any more instructions on dealing with such a trash opponent. Just do it yourself and take him out as quickly as possible!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chi Lin's figure vanished from the spot.
Flames flashed in the air.
At this moment, the lightning on the Thunder Saber-toothed Tiger ice opposite them had reached its maximum intensity.
The violent lightning flashes changed the color of the entire sky in that instant.
"Is this the Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger? No beast tamer could possibly withstand a move of this level."
"It would take at least a seventh-level Heavenly Evolution Beast to stop it. That guy on the other side is definitely going to lose this time."
"As expected of Tiannan Academy's number one."
...
The crowd below the stage looked surprised and spoke up.
Although they knew that Zhang Tiannan's first place was definitely not guaranteed, his strength was still enough to shock them.
After all, such terrifying power is not something that ordinary students can easily master.
"Go, Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger, tear them to shreds!"
Hearing the gasps of surprise from the audience, Zhang Tiannan's eyes gleamed with excitement.
What he loved most was hearing the cheers of these ordinary people.
He felt immense satisfaction every time he heard their surprise, envy, and jealousy towards him.
What would satisfy him even more was to tear apart the opponent's beast and render them useless.
The Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger lunged forward with a sudden burst of speed.
The terrifying lightning flashing across his body filled the entire arena with its shimmering light.
Only Lu Yuan's side showed no fluctuations; he didn't use his own technique to block it.
Instead, it was the red phosphorus that blocked it for him.
A massive bolt of lightning flashed directly in front of them.
The crackling sound and the sudden flash of light made everyone involuntarily close their eyes and cover their ears.
However, at that moment, someone with sharp eyes spotted a glimmer of light amidst the endless thunderstorm.
"It's fire! There's fire even amidst this terrifying lightning. It's that guy Lu Yuan's beast. It wasn't defeated directly; it even launched a counterattack."
A strong-looking beast tamer said with some surprise.
This level of ultimate skill is beyond their ability to resist.
But who would have thought that the unfortunate beast tamer on the other side, whom they thought would be defeated or even killed soon, was actually unharmed and even thought of retaliating.
"Hmph, it's just a wisp of fire, what kind of damage can it cause? My Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger's Thunderous Fury is an extremely powerful ultimate move, unstoppable by anyone below the Illusion God level!"
Zhang Tiannan laughed loudly, and he had the right to be arrogant, as this move was indeed something that ordinary beast tamers simply couldn't handle.
However.
However, he encountered Lu Yuan's Red Phosphorus.
"Red Phosphorus, stop playing around and just defeat his beast."
Lu Yuan's slightly cold voice rang out at this moment.
After hearing his words, the people around him thought he had gone mad.
How could he remain so relaxed and at ease amidst such raging lightning?
What else could it be but being terrified?
However, the next second, the change in the arena caused their pupils to contract slightly.
Under their watchful eyes, they were astonished to see that the faint flame suddenly burst into a raging fire.
The next moment, it covered the entire area and submerged the lightning.
The head of the flame, which had been grinning menacingly, appeared before everyone.
It opened its huge mouth and bit down hard on the Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger in front of it.
There was a click.
The enormous flames instantly ignited the Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger.
The body, which was flashing with four strands of lightning, was instantly burned to a pitch-black color by the flames.
The lightning completely dissipated at that moment.
This scene left everyone speechless, their mouths agape in astonishment.
"What the hell? What kind of beast is that? How could it unleash such a terrifying attack?"
"The power of this move surpasses that of the Heavenly Evolution level!"
"A dark horse, this is a true dark horse!"
...
The gasps of surprise from the crowd continued.
At this moment, Xiao Tang, who was sitting on the teacher's platform, only had a faint smile on his face after hearing the exclamations of the people around him.
He had long known that Lu Yuan would not be defeated by the other party, and would even decisively kill the other party.
After all, the so-called Zhang Tiannan was just a spoiled brat.
How could he possibly compare to Lu Yuan?
As the flames slowly dissipated, a charred beast stood before the crowd.
At this point, the Thunderstorm Saber-toothed Tiger could still be identified as a tiger, but the lightning on its body had long since dissipated.
His skin was charred, retaining only a faint trace of life.
Red Phosphorus did not completely annihilate the opposing beast, after all, this was just a match, not a real life-or-death battle.
Furthermore, since Lu Yuan hadn't spoken, it naturally wouldn't act on its own initiative.
Seeing his tamed beast in such a miserable state.
Zhang Tiannan's mouth dropped open, his eyes filled with terror, and he knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"How could this be? How could this happen?"
