My Card Beast Taming Game

Therefore, the selection process for individual competitions is much more brutal, so much so that many new substitutes who join the school team will first participate in the team competitions, leaving this battlefield, where it is destined to be difficult to get a chance, to those veteran substitutes.

Zhou Chen and Lu Qingning beside him exchanged glances, neither of them showing much emotion, only whispering "good luck" to each other.

Today is Saturday, and the club they are practicing against is the same as the one next door, both belonging to the Wang family.

Jinghong was quite surprised by his appearance.

"Isn't Zhou Chen from the team competition next door?"

"Two projects? That's ruthless!"

"His card is indeed very suitable for individual competitions, but it's really a waste for Shen Du Yuan to make him run around like this."

Participating in one event at the National Youth Championships is fine, as it can help train mental strength. However, participating in two events simultaneously, especially individual and team events, will bring more burden than benefit.

Moreover, Zhou Chen became a beginner in less than four months!

Don't be fooled by the fact that Lu Qingning and Li Feijin are both at this level within the Divine Capital Academy, making it seem like this level of talent is abundant. In reality, how was Li Feijin advertised when she enrolled?

Li Feijin is a once-in-a-decade beauty!

A genius of this caliber is one in a decade, perhaps only one in the entire land of China.

With her natural talent, Li Feijin was favored by the top family of the Divine Capital Li Clan in Zhuxia. Not only did she have a spirit beast by her side, but she was also able to give two spirit weapons that others could only dream of to Wenren Shiyue, who had grown up with her since childhood.

To ensure her smooth promotion, her family is now pulling out all the stops.

This demonstrates its high value.

Therefore, when Lu Qingning and Zhou Chen both appeared, even though they were initially thought to be students sent by aristocratic families after changing their surnames, the three departments still began to compete for them openly and secretly.

Fatian even directly dispatched Fawang Ni to intercept it.

Everyone knows that if we miss this opportunity, we don't know when we'll get another chance.

The appearance of the two made Bai Shounian believe that fortune was beginning to favor Shen Du Academy.

The fact that the two neighboring companies advertised their new students this year as geniuses who advanced within six months clearly proves this point.

Under these circumstances, it's no wonder that Jinghong's people commented that Shen Du Yuan was ruthless for involving Zhou Chen in two projects.

What they didn't know was that someone was even more ruthless in that they spent an average of ten hours a day "meditating".

This matter was not a secret within the Wanfa Sect. Many people were paying attention to this young disciple of Elder Bai. At first, everyone was curious as to why Zhou Chen was nowhere to be seen after eight o'clock every day, and why his replies to messages were intermittent.

It wasn't until Elder Bai revealed this to the academy's higher-ups who cared about him that everyone learned about this strange event.

But won't a novice card master have emotional problems after meditating for ten hours?

Even if the Bai Ze Palace's calming and exorcising effects are excellent...

The answer is no.

Zhou Chen attended classes and went to school team training as usual every day, showing no signs of any side effects.

But during this process, he meditated very rarely.

This makes one wonder, could his meditation time limit be around ten hours?

Chapter 211: The Ferocious Beasts Clash

Jin Siye is not on the training camp roster.

It wasn't that the Divine Capital Academy prevented him from coming in order to suppress news of his promotion.

This level of training alone is not very meaningful for intermediate card masters. It would be better for them to stay at the Divine Capital Academy and receive training from other intermediate card masters.

Furthermore, the news of Jin Siye's promotion had already spread.

There are no secrets in the world. Shen Du Academy is only a semi-closed school, and the network is still connected to the outside world. As long as Jin Siye has revealed his identity as an intermediate card master to people outside the school team, it is impossible to hide it.

The Divine Capital Academy, well aware of the principle that prevention is worse than cure, allowed the news of Jin Siye's promotion to spread, only blocking his new spirit card.

In addition, the news that Li Feijin is about to be promoted has also attracted a lot of attention.

In the long history of the Youth Championship, has there ever been a situation where a team had two intermediate card masters?

Yes, more than once.

And without exception, they all won the championship they had always dreamed of.

Many people who are interested in this matter are curious whether Shen Du Academy can actually have two intermediate card masters and rebuild the glory that has been lost for many years.

Shen Tu Yuan has not yet made a statement.

After all, no one knows if Li Feijin can succeed on the first try. This kind of advance statement is like popping champagne halfway through the game.

Many people are waiting for an outcome.

This includes the three Shanghai Shendu clubs currently participating in the training camp.

Who will start?

"There are no starting lineups yet; players will be playing in pairs."

As Zhou Chen listened to the Star-Questioning Parrot's words, he saw Xuan Shan and Lu Qingning take the stage, each occupying half of the main venue.

Individual competitions, compared to team competitions, do not rely as much on the scope of the venue; half of the main venue is sufficient.

This also helps with efficiency.

The battles proceed very quickly, with the rule being one life for every exchange, and a round can be completed in less than five minutes.

Unlike the team competition next door, where there are support and tank roles, it's common for a match to drag on for more than ten minutes.

The star-shaped parrot flapped its wings and said, "Go ahead, you're in the second batch."

"Row."

Zhou Chen nodded.

The earlier you encounter an opponent, the stronger they will definitely be. Things like the Emperor hiding the second team with spiritual weapons in the third team, as was the case before, are hard to see here.

Everyone wants to fight against strong opponents in order to hone their own strength.

Having not had a one-on-one fight in a long time, Zhou Chen thought for a moment and decided to bring out the Black Tiger Demon to use.

It's just sitting there anyway.

Compared to Qinglin Tong, who only appeared once, the Black Tiger Demon is likely to make appearances quite often in the future, so it's essential to practice in actual combat.

The opponent is a core member of the Wang family.

Before coming, Zhou Chen had learned about the members of these clubs who participated in the individual competition, paying special attention to those who were wielding magical weapons.

Among them was Wang Ziqi, who used a spirit card called "Evil Eye Giant Centipede," a giant centipede nearly ten meters long with a blood-red pupil between its eyebrows.

The artifact [Evil Eye] has a special effect that can cause people to become disoriented when they see its eyes; its additional passive skill [Undying Even When Dead] allows the user to continue moving for half a minute even when they suffer a fatal wound.

"start!"

As the referee announced, both sides inserted their cards to summon.

On Zhou Chen's side, the sinister tiger head appeared first, only to be severed by the suddenly appearing black tiger demon.

On the other side, a chilling blood-red pupil appeared first, followed by the body of the evil-eyed giant centipede.

The spirit cards on both sides don't look quite right.

It is indeed not normal.

The Star-Questioning Parrot laughed loudly, "A murder weapon against a murder weapon, brilliant!"

Meanwhile, at the Jinghong Club, the coaches and members who were keeping a close eye on Zhou Chen were discussing, "This spirit card was indeed used as a murder weapon. When did they get it?"

Murder weapons are relatively rare among spiritual artifacts. For a long time, other organizations have already discovered which spiritual artifacts the Divine Capital Academy has that are suitable for the Bronze and Silver ranks.

The Black Tiger Demon and its Evil Tiger Talisman were appearing for the first time.

As a result, most people turned their attention to Zhou Chen's side.

The battle began quickly.

Due to the special effects of his opponent's magical artifact, Zhou Chen found it difficult to concentrate on observing the movements of the Evil Eye Giant Centipede's head.

After all, the Evil Eye affects not only the Spirit Cards, but also the Card Masters.

So how do you fight your opponent?

It's very simple: just pay attention to the other person's body and squint when necessary.

The special effect of the Evil Eye is not an active skill; it only takes effect when it is actually seen.

Therefore, it is not difficult to deal with. Even if Zhou Chen has to close his eyes, his other senses are equally sharp. Not to mention that the Evil Eye Giant Centipede makes quite a commotion when it moves, so it cannot be done silently.

The Evil Eye Centipede is a card creature that only releases poison, and such creatures always have a very strong odor!

After receiving the order, the Black Tiger Demon simply closed its eyes.

Its senses were more acute than Zhou Chen's, especially its hearing, which allowed it to clearly hear the sound of the giant centipede's claws touching.

Therefore, it only needs the card player to give it a command in their mind, and it can accurately find the other party.

Sha sha sha...

The enemy is approaching.

The Evil-Eyed Giant Centipede has two active skills. One is to entangle the opponent and insert its chelicerae into its body to inject a potent venom.

Secondly, it can spray venom from a distance, causing extensive corrosive damage and adding toxins.

Zhou Chen noticed that the Evil-Eyed Giant Centipede had raised its upper limbs, and immediately ordered the Black Tiger Demon to create enough distance.

"Roar!"

The Black Tiger Demon Queen leaped away, and upon smelling the pungent odor, it jumped extremely far away.

Unfortunately, he failed to judge the opponent's attack distance, and his legs were still hit by a small amount of corrosive acid, which reduced his mobility.

Wang Ziqi, the opponent, was also quite decisive. Taking advantage of Zhou Chen's inability to adapt to the card's movements, he quickly launched a fierce attack.

The Evil Eye Giant Centipede accelerates its approach, and the moment the second skill ends, it immediately prepares to follow up with the first skill.

Zhou Chen remained calm and manipulated the Black Tiger Demon to unleash its blade.

A downward slash!

when!

The strike landed successfully, but failed to break through the defense, producing a crisp sound like metal clashing.

Many insectoid monsters are known for their hard exoskeletons, as the exoskeleton is an important structure that supports their bodies.

Having grown accustomed to the high damage output of the Black-feathered White Ape, Zhou Chen felt somewhat uneasy seeing a strike that left no trace of blood.

But this probing attack also confirms some things.

Let's finish this quickly!

Faced with the evil-eyed giant centipede that was about to entangle him, the black tiger demon with its eyes closed suddenly let out a furious roar.

"Roar!!"

【Tiger Demon】!

The giant centipede with the evil eye immediately froze.

However, the stalemate lasted only a second. Before Wang Ziqi went on stage, she had already learned about the Black Tiger Demon's skills from the coach.

Strong control and strong offense!

Therefore, upon approaching the Black Tiger Demon, he immediately activated Spiritual Fury. His next move was to entangle its hands and bite its throat—

Things didn't go as smoothly as Wang Ziqi had hoped.

He can drive with boundless energy, and so can Zhou Chen.

As the giant centipede with the evil eye broke free from its stun, the black tiger demon's eyes widened suddenly, and its tiger claws dropped the ring-pommel sword, grabbing its head with incredible speed.

Immediately, it used tremendous force to pull the opponent's body and slam it violently into the ground!

Boom boom boom!

Earthshaker!

The loud noises continued, and the ground cracked in a spiderweb pattern.
