Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.
Chapter 29 Winning Streak
Chapter 29 Winning Streak (Part 2)
Just like yesterday, after school in the afternoon, the promotion competition took place on the playground of the intermediate section.
This was the second day of the competition, but like yesterday, there were still very few spectators.
Yesterday's victory of Class 5 of the first grade over Class 4 of the first grade did not cause much of a stir in the academy, after all, it was just a battle between the lowest-ranking classes in the lowest grade.
However, not everyone is taking it lightly. For example, Class 3 of Grade 1, who will be playing against Class 5 of Grade 1 this afternoon, is taking this match very seriously.
Ye Yingrong, the homeroom teacher of Class 3, Grade 1, is quite young, a few years younger than Wu Changkong. She is a newly hired teacher.
Ye Yingrong arrived early, and the students of Class 3, Grade 1, were lined up very neatly. Standing at the front of the class line were three handsome boys. Strangely, the three of them looked exactly alike. If you were not very familiar with them, you would not be able to tell them apart.
Wu Changkong arrived with Class 5 of Grade 1. Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue followed behind him. The other students from Class 5 also looked excited; after yesterday's competition, they had a lot of confidence in Tang Wulin and his two companions.
Ye Yingrong walked over with a smile on her face.
"Hello, Teacher Wu." She smiled and nodded to Wu Changkong.
Ye Yingrong was a rare beauty, over 1.7 meters tall with excellent proportions. She had large, bright eyes, and her unusually long, light green hair was neatly styled in a ponytail. She had fair skin, an oval face, and cherry-like lips. Judging solely from her appearance, one could easily believe she was a student in the advanced department.
She entered Donghai Academy as a teacher at the age of twenty-three, and was a four-ring Soul Master. At her age, she was already quite outstanding.
"Hello." Wu Changkong nodded to her as well.
"I am Ye Yingrong, the homeroom teacher of Class 3." Ye Yingrong emphasized her name, because she was confident that this aloof and arrogant male god would have no idea who she was. This legendary male god, who supposedly only lived in his own world, probably couldn't even remember the names of many women in the entire academy.
"Hmm." Wu Changkong responded with a soft "hmm," and then his gaze drifted toward the competition stage.
Xie Xie stood to the side, watching with amusement. What he envied most was Wu Changkong's aloof demeanor; it wasn't an act, but something she was born with. Compared to Teacher Wu, he was far too inferior!
Ye Yingrong didn't seem to care at all. She waved to the students in her class, and the students from Class 3 of the first year quickly ran over and lined up behind her.
Ye Yingrong addressed her students, "Friendship first, competition second. Gu Tianri, Gu Tianyue, Gu Tianming, and Ito Makoto, you need to be careful later. Understand?"
"Yes, Teacher Ye!" The three identical triplets and a plain-looking boy answered in unison.
Wu Changkong turned his head and glanced at them, his gaze lingering on them when he saw their identical appearances. Clearly, he was far more interested in these three students who looked exactly alike than in Ye Yingrong.
At this moment, the Dean of Students, Long Hengxu, had already arrived on the competition stage.
"For the second match of the promotion tournament, Class 5 of Grade 1, are you still sending four players?"
Wu Changkong nodded, and Nan Fusheng, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue filed into the arena and walked toward the center of the field.
Ye Yingrong smiled slightly, "You guys go too."
The three Ko brothers, who look exactly alike, and Makoto Ito also went up to the competition stage.
These three brothers have one thing in common: they all look rather thin, but their eyes are very sharp. The triplets' tacit understanding makes them look like they walk in the same way.
As a result, although Makoto Ito walked with the three of them, his presence seemed somewhat weak.
Wu Changkong did not give his disciples any hints, and they might encounter all sorts of opponents in the future.
The promotion tournament is meant to be a test for them. If they need guidance in everything, they will never grow.
Nan Fusheng and his three teammates remained in the same formation as yesterday.
The three Gu brothers stood side by side, with Gu Tianri in the center, Gu Tianyue on his left, and Gu Tianming on his right. Ito Makoto stood behind them, but his figure was obscured by the three of them.
"Are you ready?" Long Hengxu asked as usual. After receiving affirmative answers from both sides, he waved his hand and announced the start of the second match of the promotion tournament.
The three Gu brothers released their martial spirits almost simultaneously, and when their martial spirits appeared, Nan Fusheng and the other three showed a hint of surprise in their eyes.
It's not surprising that these three brothers have the same martial spirit, after all, they are triplets. However, the visual impact is still very strong when they spread their wings at the same time.
With three pairs of wings unfurled simultaneously, and a white spirit ring appearing beneath each foot, the three Gu brothers took flight and ascended into the air.
When the three Ko brothers took off, their backs were exposed, and Ito Makoto, who had been hiding behind them, had disappeared.
Yes, Makoto Ito disappeared. He wasn't taken up by the three Ko brothers; he simply vanished without a trace.
The martial spirit of the three Gu brothers is called Skyhawk, which is a bird-type martial spirit with extremely fast flight speed.
The Skyhawk isn't the most powerful type of eagle; it relies on speed to win. If it were a spirit beast, it could fly over three thousand meters and maintain high speeds for extended periods. Therefore, the three Gu brothers all followed the path of agility-based spirit masters.
Their first spirit was the same: a bird similar to a falcon, called the Light Wind Falcon. It was fast, had little offensive power, and was only the size of a palm.
This is also due to poverty. If the souls could choose to be stronger, their combat power could increase exponentially.
"They can fly? What do we do?" Xie Xie looked at the three of them.
Tang Wulin smiled slightly, "Just take it down. Fusheng, it's up to you. Guyue, wind element enhancement." He said to Fusheng and Guyue, and a flash of blue light appeared in his hand, and several strands of blue silver grass wrapped around Xie Xie's waist.
Xie Xie screamed, "I'm afraid of heights, what should I do?"
Tang Wulin said irritably, "I'm afraid of pain too. How many times did you stab me yesterday?" Before Xie Xie could retort, he had already pulled him in front of him and hugged him from behind.
A flash of azure light appeared, and Xie Xie felt his entire body become lighter, as if much of his weight had been neutralized. In the next instant, he soared into the air as if riding on clouds.
From below the stage, Ye Yingrong saw Tang Wulin hug Xie Xie, then spin him around rapidly before throwing him into the air.
"You can throw someone that high?" Ye Yingrong was genuinely startled. However, she quickly regained her composure.
The Gu brothers are triplets with flying martial spirits. After enrolling, she focused her training on them, focusing on aerial combat and teamwork. With only one opponent airborne, wasn't this giving the three brothers an opportunity to launch a coordinated attack?
In mid-air, Gu Tianri calmly made a hand gesture. Facing Xie Xie rushing towards him, he did not directly engage in battle, but instead flapped his wings to stop his forward momentum and abruptly stopped in mid-air.
Their greatest advantage is flight; they are not afraid of fighting in the air.
Attacking Xie Xie when he is weak and falls will naturally have a miraculous effect.
Gu Tianri was preparing to retreat when a strange power suddenly surged into his mind, causing Gu Tianming's mind to go blank. Xie Xie slapped the Light Dragon Dagger on his head and simultaneously stomped his right foot on his shoulder, launching himself into the air like a roc spreading its wings, pouncing towards Gu Tianyue who was closer.
"Gu Tianri enters the arena." Long Hengxu, who had been watching clearly from below, announced the end of Gu Tianri's match. In that instant just now, if Xie Xie had wanted to kill him, his throat would have already been slit.
"What?" Gu Tianyue and Gu Tianming couldn't believe that their elder brother had been defeated so easily. But with a wave of dizziness, the remaining two also lost their senses and were defeated when Xie Xie slapped them on the head with the Light Dragon Dagger, ending the battle.
The three people on the ground watched as Xie Xie dealt with the three others, but they did not let their guard down. They knew very well that there was another person on the field.
Gu Yue reached out and summoned a gust of wind element around Xie Xie, helping to alleviate his downward momentum.
Just then, a figure slowly emerged from the shadows at the edge of the arena. It was Makoto Ito. Just as the three were about to make their move and give him a "righteous beating," they saw Makoto Ito raise his hands and say, "I surrender, I surrender."
Makoto Ito's martial soul is named Shadow Wolf, and his first soul skill is called Hidden Shadow. He just took advantage of the moment when everyone's attention was drawn to the release of the martial souls by the three Gu brothers...
He released his martial spirit and lurked into the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to strike. Unfortunately, he didn't find a chance until all three Gu brothers were defeated, and he had no choice but to admit defeat. He didn't want to be ganged up on!
"Class 5 of Grade 1 wins!" Long Hengxu's voice was clearly filled with shock when he said those words.
