The two of them split into two sides and refused to face Zhang Xing.
This was a tactic they had discussed in secret. Zhang Xing was fast and had strong attacks.
Since they couldn't block him with their defense, they could only use brute force.
On the way here, they had already prepared the incantation. They planned to enter a certain range and use Flash to reach the best attacking position.
They had done everything they could, but it was destined that they would not be able to achieve it.
The moment they used Flash to get within six meters of Zhang Xing, they were greeted with two magic arrows.
Pu pu!
The two of them rolled their eyes and lay on the ground with depressed expressions.
Ga!
The entire place was silent.
Motherf * cker, was he planning to challenge the entire arena?
They felt terrible. It was fine if he used some high-grade magic skills, but he used the lowest grade magic arrows that magic apprentices often used.
This made all the students feel terrible as if they had eaten flies, mosquitoes, bugs, and cockroaches.
Could he be more serious? Could he pay more attention to them? Did he think they were weak?
"Still too slow. I think you guys should stop scheming. Whoever is the publicly acknowledged number one, come out and fight with me."
"Let's settle the ownership of the 500 crystals. You guys can fight for the rest."
Zhang Xing knew that the second-grade academies also had rankings. It would save him a lot of trouble to directly challenge the strongest one. He could decide the winner in one battle and leave after taking the crystals.
"Hmph!
Zhang Xing, aren't you afraid of biting your tongue? "
"Don't think that you can be arrogant just because you defeated a few people. You are still far from it!"
"You want to challenge Senior Stoke?
Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? "
"…"
Zhang Xing's words had indeed caused some people to be angry.
There was no other reason. These people were all fans of Stoke, who was ranked first in the Five Kingdoms Academy Tournament.
They felt that Zhang Xing was weak and Stoke was a god. They were not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath.
Not to mention a challenge. Stoker could crush Zhang Xing with just one finger.
"Zhang Xing, don't be so arrogant. As the saying goes, don't go too far."
"You're being so arrogant because you want to be the center of attention and build your reputation."
"But aren't you ashamed?
It's true that Senior Stok is number one. He climbed up step by step with his own strength. "
"You want to take a shortcut?
I'm sorry, you've got the wrong person. "
"I, Thorpe, am ranked ninety-eighth. I don't have much prestige, but it's enough to deal with you."
The person who spoke wasn't a fan of Stoker at all, nor was he a member of Stoker's faction. However, he used this opportunity to make a name for himself. His timing was quite good, and many people present had a deeper impression of him.
He slowly walked to the edge of the arena and stopped in his tracks. He took out a metal collar and smirked. Everyone in the top 100 had their own beasts. No one would be stupid enough to challenge you to a magic duel.
"Sun-Piercing Purple Lightning Bear, come out!"
Roar!
A whirlwind blew in the field, and a twelve to thirteen meter tall giant bear appeared in front of everyone.
"Ah!
It's a rare Level Five Purple Lightning Bear! "
"This is going to be a good show. Zhang Xing's magic arrows aren't even qualified to tickle this bear."
"Don't talk about magic arrows, even a Level Three Thunderbolt Lightning Spell wouldn't be able to hurt it."
"Of course, there are many bear-type beasts. They all have super strong defense, but the Purple Lightning Bear is different. It can even cast lightning magic."
"…"
The students' exclamations reached Zhang Xing's ears, and he smiled indifferently.
"Showing off your beasts in front of me?
Don't you know that I have a dragon? "
"But using a dragon to deal with this Purple Lightning Bear is making a mountain out of a molehill. Forget it."
"I still have a supporting profession, Beast Tamer!"
