Divine-grade Evolution: God! My Gold Fish Is A Dragon! - Chapter 26
Chapter 26 Regulating the Potion
Ye Haoran found an empty seat and sat down, his eyes looking in the direction of the spirit battle stage.
The next match for the Year 2 division was about to begin. It was a match between the study committee member, Zhou Xiaoyu, and a student from Beitong No. 3 High School.
After a while, the contestants from both sides went up onto the stage and stood facing each other, waiting for the match to start.
The host walked onto the stage and said in a melodious voice, “Welcome, Zhou Xiaoyu from Beitong No. 2 High School and Wang Xin from Beitong No. 3 High School. Please prepare for the match.”
Then, the host coughed and took out a piece of paper that was hastily scribbled on.
He announced, “At the request of the committee, we will now add a temporary rule. No contestant is allowed to take any strengthening drugs or pills during the competition. Violators will be disqualified.”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Ye Haoran with strange expressions.
Aside from him, no one else could have forced the tournament organizing committee to amend the rules on the spot.
Ye Haoran’s face was calm, as if he didn’t feel the crowd’s eyes on him. He was leisurely watching the competition.
However, he was muttering internally. He hadn’t expected the organizing committee to be so efficient. He had planned to use the same trick to win another game tomorrow..
The host declared, “Alright, everyone, get into position. Let the competition begin!”
Roar!
Wang Xin from Beitong No. 3 High School was the first to summon his contract spirit. A huge bear head poked out of the spatial rift.
In the blink of an eye, an enormous black bear appeared on the spirit battle stage. Boom!
The black bear slammed into the ground,
causing the entire stage to shake slightly. The aura of a Level 5 contract spirit swept out.
Neigh!
The neigh of a white deer could be heard. The space beside Zhou Xiaoyu split open, and a blue-white deer appeared on the spirit battle stage.
The young deer shook its horns and glared at the black bear with its big eyes. The aura of a Level 4 contract spirit was constantly
emanating from it.
Zhou Xiaoyu’s contract spirit was a Level 4 3-star contracted spirit, Ice Horn Deer!
On the other hand, Wang Xin’s contract spirit was a Level 5, 2-star contract spirit, the
Violent Earth Bear!
Wang Xin nodded at Zhou Xiaoyu in a friendly
manner, then shouted, “Ha!”
The Violent Earth Bear that was standing
beside him instantly transformed into a shadow that possessed his body.
After a while, Wang Xin touched the bear mark on his forehead, stomped his left foot on the spirit battle stage, and rushed toward Zhou Xiaoyu.
The latter did not panic. She looked at Wang Xin who was rushing towards her with a calm
face and pointed her finger at him.
The Ice Horn Deer’s eyes suddenly turned blue. Shards of ice appeared out of thin air and attached themselves to Wang Xin’s body. Blue energy from the ice entered Wang Xin’s body.
The speed at which the spiritual power in the latter’s body circulated was greatly affected. The Violent Earth Bear’s possession instantly showed signs of instability.
Wang Xin stopped in his tracks to regulate his breath and dispelled the blue energy in his body with his spiritual power.
However, as soon as he forced out most of the
blue energy, the Ice Horn Deer’s eyes turned
blue again, and a few more shards of ice attached to his body.
Someone from the audience said, “This guy that is possessed by the black bear is at a disadvantage now. He’s been restrained.” Another person responded, “It is inevitable. The black bear is too slow. It is no match for
the Ice Horn Deer in this aspect.
“The black bear is basically a living target for
the Ice Horn Deer to practice on. I bet it won’t last long.”
“It’s indeed a little unfair when a long-range
unit is against a short-range unit. The latter
is definitely at a disadvantage!
The audience in the stands discussed animatedly. Most of them were optimistic about Zhou Xiaoyu’s chances.
“Ye Haoran, what do you think?”
Su Chen was holding a bag of potato chips and
eating happily. He walked over, sat next to Ye Haoran and asked with his mouth stuffed.
“Zhou Xiaoyu will be in trouble soon.” Ye Haoran took the potato chips and ate a few mouthfuls, then looked at Wang Xin who was being pushed back. He analyzed, “The Violent Earth Bear is a defensive-type contract spirit. Its own life force is still very strong. Although Zhou Xiaoyu’s Ice Horn Deer is one star above the Violent Earth Bear, it is still a support-type contract spirit. It is also one level lower than the Violent Earth Bear.” He conjectured, “Even though the Violent Earth Bear is being beaten up, the Ice Horn Deer’s attack damage is too low. Once the deer uses up its spiritual power, it will be killed.”
Ye Haoran was munching on potato chips when the situation on the spirit battle stage started to change. Although Wang Xin was still receiving the attacks of the Ice Horn Deer, the blood-red
light around his body did not weaken. The damage he received was continuously decreasing.
Slowly, Wang Xin advanced instead of
retreating. He slowly approached Zhou Xiaoyu while enduring the impact of the ice.
The Ice Horn Deer looked at the approaching
black bear with anxiety in its eyes. The blue light flashes in its eyes became more frequent.
However, Zhou Xiaoyu, who was transferring
spiritual power to the deer, looked a little
pale. She could clearly feel that the spiritual power in her body was about to be exhausted. In the blink of an eye, the ice shards released by the Ice Horn Deer became smaller and smaller. Wang Xin soon arrived in front of her. The Ice Horn Deer let out a long cry and pointed behind it with its horn. It was signaling Zhou Xiaoyu to use guerrilla tactics.
Zhou Xiaoyu shook her head and recalled the Ice Horn Deer.
Right now, she had already exhausted all of her spiritual power, so she couldn’t use guerrilla tactics at all.
On the other hand, although Wang Xin had
been taking a beating all this time, he had not consumed much of his spiritual power. He still had most of his combat power. Seeing Zhou Xiaoyu put away her contract
spirit, Wang Xin did not rush forward, but looked at the judge. Generally speaking, when the party who was at a disadvantage retracted their contract spirit, it meant that they had admitted defeat. Of course, cheaters like Ye Haoran, who didn’t play by the rules, were an exception. “Wang Xin wins!”
Hearing the result of the competition, Wang
Xin was very excited. This meant that he
could be guaranteed a place in the top class during his third year.
Zhou Xiaoyu did not show any jealousy. She knew her own strength and knew that reaching the top 32 was her limit. Ye Haoran wasn’t surprised to see the result
of the match. The proceedings were almost identical to his prediction.
“Ye Haoran, I have something to discuss with
you!”
Su Chen suddenly looked at him passionately,
as if he was looking at a money tree.
Ye Haoran was suspicious. That was the look of an evil capitalist!
Su Chen looked at him eagerly, as if he had found a new direction in life. He suggested, “Let’s open a betting corner before the next
match starts. I’ll collect the money and you predict the results. I’m sure we’ll make a
profit!”
“Perish the thought.”
Ye Haoran pursed his lips. He did not want to
be captured by the Spirit Bureau again
because of this. He did not want to be captured by Xu Shan’s black eagle and be flown a few rounds in the sky again. He didn’t want to experience the feeling of looking down at small buildings a second time.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated. He unlocked the phone and saw a message: “Dear respected Ye Haoran, how are you?
The special potion that you developed has passed the national pharmaceutical qualification approval. Please come to Beitong
National Pharmaceutical Corporation to discuss a collaboration.”
Huh?
Ye Haoran was stunned. Discuss a collaboration? Was money about to rain on
him?
Ye Haoran immediately got up and left the
Spirit Hall. He walked to the road outside and stopped a taxi.
“Please head over to Beitong National Pharmaceutical Corporation.”
“Noted.”
15 minutes later, the car came to a stop. Ye Haoran paid the fare and got out.
In front of him were three 20-story buildings.
reflected
The texture of the silver-white walls the advanced technology possessed by the company.
After explaining the purpose of his visit to the
security guard, he was taken to a meeting room on the first floor.
After a short while, two people entered the room. One of them was Xu Shan.
“Hey, Brother Xu, I didn’t expect you to be so interested in this matter!” Upon seeing an acquaintance, Ye Haoran
quickly got up to greet him and called him brother affectionately.
The corner of Xu Shan’s eyes twitched. He muttered under his breath, “Did you think that I wanted to be involved? If I don’t regulate the use of your potion, who knows what kind of trouble you’ll cause me!”
