Chapter 97 Referee, I Admit Defeat! Hurry Up!
Referee, I Admit Defeat! Hurry Up!
Yan Wuyue's aggressiveness frightened the supporting summoner.
But after all, he had experienced many battles with Zhang Mian, so he was still able to stay calm.
He immediately used his summoned spirit's skill to increase both of their speeds. He then escaped Yan Wuyue's attack with his elevated speed.
The stingray summoned spirit behind the other teammate suddenly emitted a blue light. The next moment, Yan Wuyue felt the air around her turn into the consistency of water.
The faster she moved, the stronger the resistance around her. Yan Wuyue's speed immediately dropped.
Without any hesitation, Yan Wuyue's body glowed with light as she directly activated her stars and moon power. After forming the Stars and Moon Domain, the energy in her body quickly surged and offset a large amount of the surrounding resistance.
Sensing the strange energy around her, the stars and moon energy on Yan Wuyue suddenly erupted, and the strong repulsive force pushed away the strange energy.
With no more obstacles in front of her, Yan Wuyue rushed out again at a much higher speed.
As for the two who were trying to escape, their speed was restricted in the Stars and Moon domain that suddenly appeared. They couldn't shake off Yan Wuyue's pursuit at all.
They looked at each other. Knowing that they couldn't leave, they immediately launched their strongest attack.
The white ball of light suddenly rose into the sky and burst into a dazzling light. The strong light greatly reduced Yan Wuyue's vision for a moment.
"Now!"
One of them let out a low growl, and the teammate with the stingray immediately activated his skill.
The surrounding space once again was filled with a blue-colored, watery energy. Unlike before, it directly collided with Yan Wuyue's stars and moon energy.
Although he was far from taking control of the surrounding space, he was still able to secure a safe radius around him and his teammate.
"So Zhang Mian still has a trump card here." Seeing this, Yan Wuyue couldn't help but remark.
However, she continued to charge towards the two of them.
But suddenly, the domain in the middle of the arena began to shake. Then, it turned into a faint shadow and disappeared.
After it dissipated, two figures appeared.
One of them immediately retreated backwards as soon as he appeared.
He was very quick, but appeared to be rather flustered.
Everyone looked curiously at the figure and saw that it was Zhang Mian. At the same time, he shouted, "Where's the referee? I want to admit defeat!"
Anxiety filled his words. He was obviously afraid that the referee could not hear him.
Fortunately, the referee did and quickly announced the end of the match.
As for Zhou Mingrui, he stood in his spot with his hands behind his back. He had no intention of chasing.
Everyone was stunned. Wasn't Zhang Mian arrogantly taunting his opponent just before he was pulled into the domain? Why is he suddenly acting like a frightened rabbit now?
He looked like a little girl who had seen a big bad wolf.
However, now that the match was over, no matter how many doubts they had, they had no choice but to hold them back.
Yan Wuyue looked at the beaten up Zhang Mian and could not help but sigh. She turned to Zhou Mingrui and asked, [Look at him. Aren't you afraid of crippling him?]
[Don't worry. Scheming fellows like him won't break down so easily.] Zhou Mingrui waved his hand.
[That's true. If this kind of person could really break down so easily, he couldn't have come so far.] Yan Wuyue nodded.
[Ha, if he really breaks down, I'll change my surname to yours.] Zhou Mingrui chuckled and replied confidently.
[Why do I suddenly feel a little eager to see that happen? If he really breaks down, what will happen if you take my surname?] Yan Wuyue smiled.
[What the, are you trying to stir up trouble?] Zhou Mingrui asked with raised brows.
[Who knows? You were the one who said it first.] Yan Wuyue spread her hands and laughed.
Without Zhang Mian, the remaining teams were basically a piece of cake for Yan Wuyue's team.
The competition ended in the evening.
The result of the competition was as expected. Yan Wuyue's team won the highest comprehensive score and earned the first place in this year's freshmen tournament.
On the podium, the principal gave the awards to them personally.
"The other rewards will be sent to your dormitory later. I'll first give you the reward for the first place now."
Zhou Mingrui, who was standing beside him, looked closely. The box was as white as porcelain. There were golden patterns on it, giving it a mysterious and elegant feeling.
"Come, let's invite the champion of this competition to receive the reward that they deserve."
Yan Wuyue received the box from the principal. It was around 15 centimeters wide and less than 30 centimeters long. The box felt a little heavy, as if it was made of solid metal.
"The higher-ups in our college have high hopes for you. We hope that you can keep up with this excellent performance. With your talent, you can easily choose any Research Institute of your liking. "
"So you have to take good care of yourself. You can't slack off, or you'll really be wasting your incredible talent."
After saying that, the principal patted Yan Wuyue's shoulder and winked.
Yan Wuyue nodded with a smile. She obediently pulled Zhou Mingrui's arm and walked down the stage.
Watching Yan Wuyue leave, the principal suddenly felt that this student was worth teaching and liked her even more.
"Alright, this year's freshmen tournament has already ended. As a ceremony to welcome all the freshmen, this year's competition can be considered to have come to an end."
"I hope that you will study hard in the Academy and take in more knowledge to improve your overall strength. This way, you can proudly say that you have graduated from the Heavenly Saint Academy! "
"No matter which Research Institute you choose to join, as long as you say that you came from the Heavenly Saint Academy, you'll get envious looks from everyone else. "
The principal began his self-indulgent speech of encouragement for the freshmen. At the same time, he began to gradually distribute the rewards.
As long as a student participated in the freshmen tournament, regardless of their placing, they would be able to receive a small gift from the academy.
Although it was a small gift, when the students opened it and saw that it was rather valuable even for them, they all smiled.
The bustling scene lasted for half an hour before the students gradually dispersed.
