Chapter 174 The Situation in Tianshui, A Way to Break the Stalemate
On the throne of the Heavenly King, Bai Yu looked at Ma Ling'er with a hint of regret: "I see the shadow of an old friend in him."
There was a hint of showing off, but it was quickly exposed by the Divine Deer: "The city lord of the Science and Technology City? The Iron-Armed One named Tie Dongxi? That guy with the belly-drumming slap? The one who can stack up his attack and slap a mountain? How the hell did you figure that out? This Four-Jawed Needle Dragon is only level 60, they are 30 levels lower than him, okay?"
"Then when he levels up, he'll be like that... Never mind, I'm not talking to you anymore, the first one is finished." Bai Yu stopped drawing, and Zygarde in its green core form and 10% poodle form appeared on the painting, exuding the aura unique to divine beasts, just like a living creature.
In the national database, mythical beasts only have names and descriptions, with virtually no photos. Bai Yu's hobby is collecting images of mythical and magical beasts to supplement the database.
At the entrance to the battlefield, Qi Hao looked at the sky. Xiao Tie and the others had not returned yet. Luo Tianming was not by Qi Hao's side; he had left after receiving a call from Fang Sese and Qing Yao, clearly trusting the long-eared rabbit.
Except for Ling'er, who hadn't come out yet, Tianshui and the others were all waiting at the entrance of the battlefield. Li Linfeng was not left behind either. They had already guessed this outcome. The champions of the two colleges would compete for the final victory, and the winner would receive the title of the strongest young generation in both colleges.
This title will allow Qi Hao to participate in competitions without badges, because badges are used to prove strength, and titles are also used to prove strength.
The prize for the champion has also been announced: the qualification to participate in the Dream Realm. It has only been a little over six years since it was held once every twenty years, and the fluctuations have become more and more frequent recently, but the specific opening time is unknown.
As for why it wasn't announced before, the reason was to avoid vicious competition that could affect team unity. However, Qihao and the others are trainers who take a more relaxed approach. They believe that winning or losing depends entirely on battle strength, so they are not afraid of this. It can only be considered as a form of insurance.
First came a classic exchange of pleasantries, but Qi Hao wasn't worried at all; instead, he became concerned about Tianshui.
“Your current team still has a lot of flaws. How about we find some time to help you tame another one? And about the divine beasts…” Before Qi Hao could finish speaking, Tian Shui got anxious first.
"QAQ So what if you have a mythical beast? I have brothers! I have milk tea! I don't need mythical beasts anymore!" Tianshui lay on Wan Xingqing's head, their heights were just right. He didn't know why, but his brother was a bit short. He'd find some time to take some calcium supplements.
"It's alright, see if you need mine." Wan Xingqing took out the vermilion pearl for the first time, but she must have misunderstood Tianshui's meaning.
"Uh...hiss? This thing seems familiar, like back in my hometown...but the one I saw was blue." Tianshui said, then covered his head and squatted down on the ground. That sound from before rang out again!
"What's wrong?" Qi Hao quickly helped Wan Xingqing lift Tianshui to a seat on the side.
Tianshui was sweating profusely: "South China Sea, a voice is telling me to go to South China Sea! Damn it! Is it because East Campus is closer to South China Sea?! I want to go back to North Campus!"
Tianshui stood up abruptly, wanting to go straight to the train station! He looked agitated, clearly somewhat out of control!
He was then pinned to the ground by Wan Xingqing with an armbar: "You're not allowed to go. How long are you going to run away?"
"Let me go! I'd rather die than go to the South China Sea! Let me go!" Tianshui said, his voice trembling with tears, his hands covering his head, veins bulging on his face, as if he were having a seizure.
Upon seeing this, Qi Hao immediately released the Mirror of Still Water, placing one hand on Tian Shui's head. (This was essentially physical calming, using energy to freeze the head.)
Tianshui calmed down immediately, and a bunch of ice shards appeared on his head.
After calming down, Tianshui squatted down against the wall with her knees drawn up to her chest, her voice filled with the aggrieved tone of a child: "I don't want to go back. When I was little, I would often jump into the sea unconsciously, guided by this sound. In the end, I was diagnosed with mental illness, and my family all hate me. So I chose to study at the North Campus. Therefore, I refuse to go back no matter what!"
After saying this, Tianshui looked terrified, clearly frightened. After all, he had been led to jump into the sea several times, and the psychological trauma was inevitable.
Seeing Tianshui so frightened, Wan Xingqing hugged him and gently stroked his head: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Looking at the gentle Wan Xingqing, Tianshui finally calmed down and returned to his humorous self, sighing to Wan Xingqing, "It would be so much better if you were a girl."
Then Tianshui got a chop to the neck from Wan Xingqing. Tianshui must be blind!
Qi Hao stroked his chin and discussed with N, Qin Ni, and Li Linfeng: "It seems we have no choice but to go to the South China Sea. We need to find out what's going on in Tianshui."
However, none of the three of them were available. Li Linfeng was going to the Sky Tower for special training, Qin Ni was kidnapped by Bina, and N was going to find news about the Phantom Tower.
"Qihao, please enter the arena immediately! Yulijia is waiting for you!" The announcement came over the loudspeaker again, this time specifically urging Qihao.
Just then, Ma Ling'er came out. Upon seeing Qi Hao, she quickly walked up to him and said with a solemn expression, "The only way to defeat him is through continuous damage. Don't try to use single-hit attacks, as they will quickly be absorbed by his cells."
"As for large-area continuous damage, I've already tried it, and it works, but it's not the best. You can try breaking through from one point to the surface. He's like an egg, able to disperse all the force he receives, and his recovery ability is also very fast." This was the last thing Ma Ling'er could do: to probe for information for Qi Hao.
"I believe in Xiao Tie's ability to control his strength, and he does have weaknesses, right?" Qi Hao said confidently.
“Yes! I saw him deliberately deviate from the core to dodge.” Ma Ling’er’s observation skills were naturally no less than Qi Hao’s.
"Since our attacks on him will be dispersed, what if we only attack his core?" Qi Hao bypassed Ma Ling'er and headed towards the battlefield, already having a guess.
"Of course I thought of that too, but the Najacacles' ability to control its power isn't quite there yet, but I believe you can do it! So, win, Captain!!" Qi Hao was the only one who could make Ma Ling'er willingly follow him.
Even if there will inevitably be disagreements in the end, right now he trusts Qi Hao the most.
"Then watch closely! This is a battle that will decide our fate! This is a battle against the gods! This is a battle to break free from our shackles!" Qi Hao strode forward and gave Ma Ling'er a thumbs up.
A thumbs-up! At the very least, he'll survive! This time, the advantage lies with Qihao!
