"The battle for the top twenty is so intense! Even Situ Yan almost failed!"
"After all, reaching the top twenty already gets you some rewards."
"Yeah, these are tangible benefits! And itâs the last chance, who would want to give up?"
Clearly, even after an hour had passed and lunch was over, many people were still discussing the morningâs fight for the top twenty.
It was evident that the beastmaster battle in the morning was extremely fierce.
"Itâs such a pity for Liu Pei, as the top candidate from Huaiyang Province, he still didnât make it into the top twenty! Itâs really difficult to get these rewards!"
"So what, not to mention the top twenty, not even the first from Huaiyang Province made it, you see how many people in the first round of elimination didnât have the qualification to advance even further?"
"Dong Muxuanâs strength is really impressive, if it wasnât for meeting Pan Xiaoyu, I feel he would have had a chance to contend within the top twelve!"
"Thereâs nothing to be done, itâs also about luck, but look at that Qin Xiaoxue from Magic Capital Academy, didnât she also encounter two provincial top candidates but was able to defeat them both?"
"The elimination matches are also determined based on previous round battles, that Qin Xiaoxueâs subsequent opponents didnât include any top candidates anymore, indicating sheâs already considered as having the potential to win the championship."
"Itâs different, right? Dong Muxuanâs two opponents were Mu Hanchan and Pan Xiaoyu, one was the first from Bingyuan Academy, the other from South Sea Academy first!"
"Alight, but if you really compare luck, who has worse luck than Zhou Yuan?"
Clearly, mentioning this guy who continuously faced Su Ping twice, everyone couldnât help but laugh.
Over these past few days, this little chubby has become an internet celebrity.
Especially since he has a bit of an entertainerâs personality, he gained quite some attention by being interviewed and live-streaming after being eliminated.
Clearly, the fact that they could enter such a stage itself means they are exceptional talents.
Amidst these discussions,
the two matches in the afternoon gradually commenced!
The top twelve!
In such a battle situation, no one would ignore their opponents, but they wouldnât pray excessively either.
The opponents who entered this battle are no ordinary figures.
No matter who they face, itâs not something that can be easily solved.
However, undoubtedly, facing different opponents, corresponding strategies need to be adjusted.
So, after the familiar beautiful host passionately stirred up the atmosphere, all eyes focused on the electronic screen at the top for this professional assessment that attracted nationwide attention.
With one command, the twelve names representing the most elite young beastmasters today started quickly and randomly shuffling!
Gradually, the speed of this shuffling slowed down.
Finally, twelve names were slowly locked in.
Forming six pairs of opponents, appearing before everyoneâs eyes.
Su Ping quickly spotted his name and the opponentâs name aligned with his in his sight.
He raised his eyebrows.
Because, in a way, his luck was actually good.
His opponent wasnât the top candidate from any academy.
Even though they all made it into the top twelve, like Xie Qiong from Xijing Province ranked second, or An Hong from Shanhe Academy ranked fourth, these are considered by the public as relatively weaker opponents.
And Su Pingâs opponent was Xie Qiong.
Su Ping instinctively turned his head to look.
It was a girl with long straight black hair.
Wearing large black-framed glasses, although her appearance was relatively ordinary and had a somewhat gloomy temperament, the aura surrounding her gave a unique attraction.
The moment Su Ping looked at her, she also looked back at Su Ping.
Simultaneously, some of the experiences of this relatively low-profile yet fame-rising contender during the provincial exams, even overshadowing the former fame of Chen Zhan from Xijing Province came to Su Pingâs mind.
Compared to Chen Zhan, who directly relied on his grandfather to get an Azure Dragon, and his own familyâs bred pet beast, Xie Qiongâs Bone Dragon was different.
The land of Xijing Province, close to multiple ancient battlefields, although not as abundant as the Yingling Academyâs resources, still had a fair number of undead pet beasts.
And Xie Qiongâs Bone Dragon was discovered, contracted, and bred by herself.
Thereâs definitely more to it, since in Dragon Country Dragon City, the control over dragon clan pet beasts is extremely strict.
However, since Xie Qiong openly mentioned it without any repercussions, itâs clear that it is wholly hers now.
The subsequent breeding was the same.
Thatâs why in Xijing Province, amidst the numerous outdoor ancient battlefields, quite a few people still try their luck during this period.
Of course, getting another Bone Dragon is exceedingly difficult.
Many have even lost their lives, which is why this fervor has waned.
However, in terms of popularity in Xijing Province, Xie Qiong is even higher than Qin Feng, who is ranked first.
After all, dragons are incredibly enticing.
They are also the highest pursuit and achievement of Dragon Nationâs beastmasters.
Being from a grassroots background, Xie Qiongâs story is much more inspiring compared to the likes of Chen Zhan, whom a little understanding will reveal as privileged.
Su Ping didnât expect that his first-round opponent would be her.
