Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 148 Prey and Hunter, Battlefield Treasures!

"Damn, that's so despicable! More than ten captains of the National Government teams conspired to target our Kyushu team?!"

"They've lost all sense of shame! Is winning through such means honorable? Even if Kyushu is eliminated, no one will acknowledge their achievements!"

"Why weren't those powerful nations targeted like this in previous elections? We, Kyushu, finally managed to rise to power, and now we're all united?!"

"It's all because our Kyushu team is too strong! These cowards don't even have the courage to face us head-on, all they do is resort to these despicable tactics!"

The Kyushu audience was outraged by this scene and angrily denounced the team targeting Kyushu as shameless.

Audiences from other countries looked embarrassed, and while some offered strong rebuttals, they all lacked conviction.

Among the high-ranking officials of Kyushu, Pang Lai frowned:

"These shameless brats, they can't even take a joke!"

"Hopefully they can overcome this crisis and at least advance to the quarterfinals." Speaker Shao Zheng also began to worry.

"Don't worry, they will," Han Ji said with a smile.

"You trust them that much?" Pang Lai couldn't help but ask, hearing Han Ji's tone.

"I don't believe them, I believe Cheng Xiao," Han Ji said.

"Because of the events in the ancient capital?"

"Yes, but let's not just watch. He'll surprise us."

""

The high-ranking officials were completely confused, but since the speaker was Han Ji, they must have witnessed Cheng Xiao's true abilities during the catastrophe in the ancient capital.

If Cheng Xiao can lead the Kyushu National Government team to break through the encirclement of all the National Government teams, then...

That National University Championship was arguably the most prestigious and historic tournament ever.

..............................

After Cheng Xiao finished processing Tong Ying's memories, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly:

"Asha's really good at making things easier for me. I don't even have to look for them one by one. I can just take them all at once."

The competition among teams to snatch treasures is essentially part of the treasure hunt itself.

Only the team that ranks eighth in the treasure hunt will qualify for the final eight.

It is also common for previous students to choose to steal treasures from other teams when they are not good enough to make it into the top eight.

Over time, this became a regular and exciting part of the treasure hunt.

But what no one expected was that this treasure hunt turned into a mass hunt.

This is the first time such a situation has been seen since the inception of the competition among world-class universities.

But it's hard to say who the hunter and who the prey are.

"There's no need to rush into the battle. We can first look for the most valuable battlefield treasures in this competition," Cheng Xiao said.

In each treasure hunt, the organizers will release the most valuable treasure, also known as the Battlefield Treasure.

If no one obtains the Battlefield Treasure of this year, it will be left behind and passed on to the next year or even the year after that.

In the original story, Mo Fan obtained the Nian Stone, a battlefield treasure from the previous eight editions, thirty-two years ago, by chance.

This year's Battlefield Treasure went unclaimed.

..............................

Each student has a personal eagle that follows them, which allows viewers to switch to the perspective of a specific student at will.

Zhao Manyan and Jiang Yu were the first to meet up. They originally wanted to find other teammates, but unfortunately they ran into two British players.

The British team members turned and left, and Zhao Manyan and his companion assumed that the other party did not want to talk to them anymore, so they ignored them.

Unexpectedly, the other party didn't leave, but instead turned back to call for reinforcements.

Upon encountering them again, the two British team members immediately led a dozen or so students from different teams in pursuit.

"Fuck your mother! More than a dozen Nationalist soldiers ganged up on us and chased after us. You bunch of animals, have you no shame?!" Zhao Manyan cursed angrily.

"Hahaha, if you want to blame someone, blame your captain. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't be in this situation," Captain America laughed.

"You will pay the price!" Jiang Yu said viciously before using the spatial scroll to leave.

Zhao Manyan was unwilling, but he had no choice but to leave.

Before I could find any valuable treasures at the beginning, I was targeted by a group of people. I got nothing and was very angry.

The faces of the Kyushu executives and the audience turned somewhat gloomy upon seeing this scene.

More than a dozen contestants, including two team captains, targeted two members of Kyushu. They have no shame whatsoever!

Not only Jiang Yu and Zhao Manyan, but the other team members also faced targeting.

Ai Jiangtu, Nan Jue, and Mu Nujiao are in relatively good condition.

Ai Jiangtu and Nan Jue met up ahead of time. Ai Jiangtu had a high level of spatial cultivation and could easily run away with Nan Jue.

Wearing the Heavenly-grade Xuan Snake Armor, Mu Nujiao was completely unafraid of the bombardment of high-level magic.

With the addition of wind-type skills that focus on high movement speed, as well as plant-type and ice-type skills that can restrict the movement of enemies, they successfully escaped the pursuit.

Jiang Shaoxu was originally in a hopeless situation, but fortunately, at the critical moment, she met Mu Ningxue and made contact through telepathy. The two women joined forces to break through the encirclement.

Mu Tingying and Nan Rongni were not so lucky; they were surrounded and eliminated on the spot.

As for Mo Fan, he was full of youthful vigor and managed to take a captain and several students with him before leaving the scene.

"This student is incredibly strong; he fought tooth and nail, taking on several students and a powerful captain before being eliminated," Speaker Shao Zheng praised.

"The other trainees also performed very well. They actually managed to break through the encirclement. Our Kyushu class is truly full of talent."

Pang Lai also said with considerable satisfaction:

"Once they come together and face all the national team teams, it's not impossible for them to make it into the top eight based on their overall performance."

"Huh, Cheng Xiao has entered the eagle's perspective of the Battlefield Treasure. Could it be that he discovered this year's Battlefield Treasure?!"

Everyone turned to look at the location of the battlefield treasure from the Eagle's Eye perspective; Cheng Xiao had already stepped into that area.

..............................

"Your Majesty, you are just ahead!" Bell led the way.

The battlefield treasure was naturally discovered by Bell, and Bell has the strongest mental power among the Shadow Legion.

Cheng Xiao looked ahead and saw a green forest shimmering with dazzling light.

This green forest is different from the rest of the forest; even just getting close to it, you can feel the intense heat emanating from it.

Looking towards the green forest, one can also see dazzling golden light shining through.

"This power of light is extremely strong, even more concentrated than the energy of the treasure worth hundreds of millions that you mentioned before," Bell said.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be a top-grade Light-type Domain Soul Seed. Could this be the battlefield treasure of this year's treasure hunt?" Cheng Xiao guessed.

Suddenly, a very faint sound came from behind, but Cheng Xiao and Bell noticed it immediately.

"Come out!" Cheng Xiao shouted to the back.

The person hiding in the back hesitated for a moment, but still came out.

She has golden, wavy shoulder-length hair and a delicate, sculpted face that is both beautiful and sexy.

Those beautiful golden eyes were the finishing touch, as if they were born with royal nobility.

She said softly:

"Sorry, I didn't mean to follow you. My name is Eileen, and I'm a member of the British National Team."
