As the referee's announcement faded, the entire arena erupted in cheers.
"The freshman representative from Dragon Academy actually defeated Qin Zhen!"
"My God! Are all the freshmen at Dragon Academy this amazing?"
"Qin Zhen surrendered without a fight! Just how strong is that freshman on the other side?!"
Everyone at the scene was talking loudly.
Even Rune, sitting in his seat, couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Then, facing the congratulations from everyone, he put on a smug smile.
As for Cui Peng and Qiao Xingxing, who were standing below the arena, they looked at each other and both saw disbelief in each other's eyes.
"We won?!"
Cui Peng stared wide-eyed.
He couldn't believe that Qin Zhen, who claimed to be the strongest in Ruifeng Academy and who hadn't even beaten Qiao Xingxing, had actually been defeated by Lu Yuan, a freshman!
Is this real or fake?!
Is he dreaming?
At this moment.
Standing on the stage, Lu Yuan put Su Ren back into his beast-taming space and slowly walked off the stage. Seeing Cui Peng and Qiao Xingxing still standing there in a daze, he couldn't help but remind them.
"Come on! The arena battles are over, what are you still standing here for?"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's voice, Cui Peng and Qiao Xingxing suddenly snapped out of their daze.
"We really won?!"
Looking at Cui Peng, who seemed to have suddenly turned into an idiot, Lu Yuan couldn't help but roll his eyes and pointed to the huge display screen on the arena wall.
"Isn't the match result displayed there?"
Cui Peng seemed to suddenly remember the real-time points settlement screen and quickly looked up at it.
"Champion of the Ring Battle!"
"Dragon Academy is currently in first place in points!"
"Holy crap! We actually won!"
Cui Peng jumped for joy, but accidentally aggravated the wound he had sustained in the battle, causing him to grimace.
Upon seeing this.
Lu Yuan sighed helplessly and tossed him a bottle of medicine.
"Both of you are seriously injured. After drinking the healing potion, go to the medical room for treatment as soon as possible to avoid affecting tomorrow's team battle."
Cui Peng quickly reached out and took the medicine, carefully cradling it in his hands.
This healing potion is a real treasure!
He had just watched as Qiao Xingxing's wounds began to heal at a visible speed after she drank the healing potion.
Despite suffering a severe injury that threatened to kill him, he stood up and watched the entire arena battle after drinking the healing potion.
This clearly demonstrates just how effective the treatment potion Lu Yuan gave us was.
Its effects are comparable to top-tier treatment drugs!
"Hey kid surnamed Lu, I advise you not to be so arrogant."
Just as Lu Yuan and the others turned to leave, Qin Zhen's sinister voice suddenly came from behind them.
Cui Peng, who had the most explosive temper, immediately jumped up.
"How dare a defeated opponent speak?! Instead of trying to advise others, you should be thinking about where to find new pet cubs!"
Faced with Cui Peng's mockery, Qin Zhen, unusually, did not get angry; instead, a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Outsiders all think I'm the strongest in Sharp Edge Academy, but actually there's a kid in the second year who's just as unpleasant as you, and his Beast Taming level is even higher than mine! Now that Shadow Rat is dead, I definitely can't participate in the later team battles, so that kid who's a substitute will have to take my place."
At this point, Qin Zhen paused, looking at Lu Yuan with an expression as if he were looking at a dead man.
"I hope you can walk off the arena alive by then."
Qin Zhen stared intently at Lu Yuan's face, as if afraid of missing any expression he might make.
However, after hearing these words, Lu Yuan's expression did not change at all; he simply nodded slightly at him.
Thank you for your advice.
"That's it?!"
A crack appeared on Qin Zhen's face.
"Otherwise what?" Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow. "Do I need to express my gratitude to you in any other way?"
"..."
Qin Zhen was speechless for a moment, but his heart was roaring.
no!
Shouldn't any normal person be scared when they hear these words?
Why is Lu Yuan's expression so calm?
After glancing one last time at Qin Zhen, whose expression was blank, Lu Yuan turned and left.
Regardless of who Ruifeng Academy sends, his goal remains the same.
That is to make Longteng Academy win first place in the inter-school exam!
All obstacles that prevent him from achieving this goal will be cut down by him!
...
Due to the competition format, the league exam lasted a total of two days.
After the individual and arena battles conclude, the final team battles will begin the following day.
During the exam, no candidate may leave the Beast Taming Arena on their own.
So that night, Lu Yuan could only rest in the room arranged by the Beast Taming Arena.
"This is our room. Qiao Xingxing lives next door, so we can hear any noises at any time," Cui Peng said with a smile, waving the room card in his hand as he introduced the room to Lu Yuan.
Since the end of the arena battle, Cui Peng's attitude towards Lu Yuan has undergone a complete 180-degree change.
If he had previously looked down on Lu Yuan because of his status and beast-taming level, he had now completely become Lu Yuan's loyal admirer.
After receiving treatment at the infirmary, he followed Lu Yuan wherever he went.
Moreover, since both of them were boys, Lu Yuan couldn't even use going to the bathroom as an excuse to get rid of him.
at this time.
Lu Yuan had been pestered by Cui Peng for a whole day, and his expression showed a hint of despair.
Please don't say things that are so easily misunderstood.
Since these were just temporary rest rooms for the examinees, the Beast Taming Arena naturally wouldn't prepare any particularly luxurious suites. So, they simply grouped students of the same gender together by academy.
Therefore, it was only natural for Lu Yuan to share a room with Cui Peng.
Fortunately, there were two beds in the room.
He doesn't want to share a bed with a man!
Seeing Lu Yuan's disgusted expression, Qiao Xingxing couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
Since the start of the competition, Lu Yuan had always had that nonchalant expression on his face, so this was the first time she had seen Lu Yuan show such blatant disdain, which made her find it somewhat amusing.
"Okay!"
"It's getting late, you should get some rest. We have a tough battle to fight tomorrow!"
