"Next, let us invite the representatives of Stardragon's First Academy and the Black Moon Combat Academy to the stage!"
As the charming host's voice fell, the audience in the stadium immediately cheered. The clash between the previous Six Great Academies' qualifier champions and this year's freshmen competition had long made the audience somewhat impatient.
As the audience cheered, Qin Haoxuan led the team of Stardragon's First Academy and slowly walked towards the stage. On the other side, Han Ting led the team of the Black Moon Combat Academy.
The two teams were less than ten meters apart, but the expressions on their faces were completely different. One side was relaxed, while the other had a serious expression.
On the commentary platform, commentator Ze Xi saw the expressions on the two teams' faces and couldn't help but sigh. "Although the Black Moon Combat Academy has just defeated Stardragon's First Academy and obtained first place in the freshmen competition, they don't have the confidence to win against Stardragon's First Academy in the official competition. From their expressions, we can see that they don't have much of a chance of winning."
His partner, Lord, nodded in agreement. "You're right. In terms of overall strength, the First Academy of Star Dragon is clearly stronger. If the Blackmoon Combat Academy is unable to defeat the First Academy of Star Dragon, perhaps Miracle Youth will be a substitute."
"Qinchuan's strength is indeed very strong and has received everyone's approval. However, Qinchuan's abilities are mostly in the field of battle arrays. When facing a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage opponent, Qinchuan still has the opportunity to inscribe battle arrays. However, if he faces a Foundation Establishment Late Stage or even a Foundation Establishment Complete Stage opponent, Qinchuan may not be able to easily deal with them. Therefore, even if Qinchuan comes out, I don't think the Black Moon Combat Academy will win."
"However, what we're saying now is just a guess. As for the specifics, we'll have to see the next match."
The commentator's words struck a chord with the audience. Based on strength alone, the Black Moon Combat Academy was inferior to Stardragon's First Academy in all aspects. A difference of one small realm could be made up for in other aspects, but a difference of two small realms was not so easy to make up for.
"Are you not going to fight?"
In the audience, Wang Bo looked at Qinchuan, who was sitting beside him. He couldn't possibly wait until the Black Moon Combat Academy entered the revival round before making his move.
"Not making a move now is the right choice."
Zhou Lin indifferently replied, "If Qinchuan makes a move now, he might not be able to help the Blackmoon Combat Academy win this match."
Qinchuan, who was sitting in the middle, nodded and said, "That's right. Although I have confidence in my own strength, if I really have to face a Foundation Establishment late stage or even a Foundation Establishment expert without any preparation, I may not be able to win. The slightest mistake may cause me to lose."
Qinchuan wasn't an arrogant and boorish person. He was happy that he had won the first place in the Freshmen Competition. However, he didn't think that he was invincible or arrogant because of this. He wouldn't relax until he defeated Qin Haoxuan.
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Wang Bo could only helplessly say, "But looking at the expressions of your classmates, none of them have any fighting spirit. I hope they won't lose too badly."
"The only ones who have no fighting spirit are Han Ting and Lan Shuxin."
Zhou Lin hit the nail on the head and said indifferently, "Although the two of them are in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment realm and are seniors, their actual combat strength isn't strong. Furthermore, they don't have the confidence to win. Instead, they've placed their hopes on the other three. It can be said that they don't have any responsibility."
Qinchuan helplessly sighed when he heard this. He could tell what Zhou Lin had said, but there was nothing he could do. Han Ting and Lan Shuxin were indeed not strong. Even if they wanted to carry the burden, they didn't have the ability to do so.
… …
"The First Academy of Star Dragon will win!
The First Academy of Star Dragon will win!
Qin Haoxuan is invincible! "
"Go, Black Moon Combat Academy!"
"The Divine Star Dragon Maiden shines brightly. Qin Haoxuan will win!"
The audience cheered crazily and waved the banners and support cards in their hands. Some people were so excited that they fainted. The scene was extremely lively.
The first match of the official tournament was about to begin. Amidst the audience's enthusiastic cheers, the First Academy of Star Dragon's Jiang Wudi took the stage as the first contestant. On the other side, the Black Moon Combat Academy sent out Lan Shuxin according to the original plan.
Jiang Wudi stood on the stage. When he saw Lan Shuxin, he couldn't help but sneer and say, "I don't like to hit women."
Lan Shuxin was expressionless and said lightly, "If you don't like to hit women, why don't you just admit defeat?"
"If that's the case, then I'll choose to destroy the flower!" Jiang Wudi chuckled and looked at Lan Shuxin with a malevolent gaze. It was obvious that he didn't have good intentions.
The host stood between Jiang Wudi and Lan Shuxin. He faced the audience and said in a clear voice, "Now, I announce that the first match of the official tournament of the Six Great Academies is between the First Academy of Star Dragon and the Black Moon Combat Academy. Jiang Wudi and Lan Shuxin. Match, begin!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, the cheers in the arena rose to another level. At the same time, the referee officially blew the whistle!
Toot, toot, toot!
The moment the whistle sounded, Jiang Wudi's body suddenly lit up with resplendent runes. His aura surged and he was like a ferocious tiger coming down from the mountains as he brazenly pounced toward Lan Shuxin!
Facing Jiang Wudi's strong attack, Lan Shuxin didn't seem to have any intention of distancing herself or inscribing runic arrays. Her body also lit up with blue runes. Instead of retreating, she advanced and took the initiative to meet Jiang Wudi!
Seeing Lan Shuxin take the initiative to meet him, Jiang Wudi was slightly stunned. Soon after, he smiled maliciously. He would let Lan Shuxin know how disastrous the price of underestimating him was!
"Jade Wave Splendor!"
Lan Shuxin let out a delicate cry, and a clear spring suddenly appeared between her palms. This clear spring flowed noisily and instantly turned the arena into a pool of water!
At this moment, Jiang Wudi was less than ten meters away from Lan Shuxin. When he saw the pool of water in front of Lan Shuxin, he didn't dodge and directly charged toward it.
At this moment, Lan Shuxin put her palms together and shouted again.
"Water Prison!"
As soon as Lan Shuxin shouted, the water in the pool suddenly became active and rushed toward Jiang Wudi. It turned into an airtight cage and trapped Jiang Wudi inside!
Seeing that Jiang Wudi was trapped in the water prison, Lan Shuxin immediately retreated and opened up the distance between them. At the same time, she poured the majestic spiritual energy in her body into the pool of water and coldly said, "Water Explosion!"
When the words "Water Explosion" came out of her mouth, the clear pool of water suddenly fluctuated violently. In an instant, it tumbled like a magma eruption and erupted with an extremely shocking energy fluctuation. It suddenly exploded and the sound was like thunder as it turned into a curtain of rain that covered the sky!
