“All thirty-nine contestants have completed the selection and scoring round!” “Let’s give our warmest applause to thank all the contestants who showed their true selves on the field today, their determination and eagerness to strive forward is the eternal tune of the Youth Training Competition!”
“And now, it is my privilege to announce the rankings of this selection battle,” the host paused slightly. “Apart from those who voluntarily gave up the second selection battle, all contestants participated in the ranking based on the highest score of their two scorings.”
“In thirty-ninth place, contestant Zuo Quanyuan, with 68.3 points!”
“In thirty-eighth place…”
As the host started to announce the ranking from the back, a wave of booing echoed from the Audience Seats, indicating their interest was more on the top- ranking players.
Even so, the audience received each contestant who stepped out when their name was called with sincere applause brimming with encouragement.
Soon, the host announced the names and scores of the contestants up to the fifth place.
“The fourth-place contestant is…” On purpose, he paused. Everyone’s eyes onsite were fixed on the four contestants whose names had not yet been called. “Contestant Bear Battle! Congratulations to Bear Battle for achieving a good score of 92.0 points!”
Phew!” Bear Battle’s tense expression relaxed in an instant. He promptly stepped out, waving to the direction of the Audience Seats.
In the first round of the selection battle, his performance was mediocre, barely making it into the top ten. But after replacing his Food Spirit in the second round, he unleashed an even greater power, earning a higher score, thus avoiding elimination.
The Lv Family Sisters, who participated in the competition along with him, did not possess such strong skills. Their rankings had already been announced.
Lv Qianqian ranked seventh, Lv Youyou ninth.
The two did not advance to the next round.
The contestant who ranks third is…” The host’s voice rose again, “Ling Ziye! Congratulations to him for achieving a good score of 92.5 points in the selection battle!”
“Hehehes-” Ling Ziye laughingly got up and waved towards the Audience Seats. Then, he looked at Yu Kun, who was standing by his side and had not been called yet, with admiration.
He was one of the two lackeys who stood behind Yu Kun previously. Although just a lackey of Yu Kun, his own strength was not to be underestimated.
However, in the next moment, the smile faded from Ling Ziye’s face. “Second place goes to our contestant, Qin Lang! His score is 94.0 points!” Hearing the host’s words, Ling Ziye shot Qin Lang a resentful glance, speaking in a low voice, “It’s meaningless to just have a powerful Food Spirit. If we meet in the ranking competition, I’ll teach you a lesson!”
“I look forward to it,” Qin Lang coolly replied, then stepped up and waved to the Audience Seats, where the applause and cheer were exceptionally fervent. “Finally, the top-ranked contestant in the selection battle is-” The host’s voice drew out slightly, then he abruptly pointed in Yu Kun’s direction, “Congratulations to contestant Yu Kun! He achieved a score of 95.3 points!” Louder applause and cheers echoed from the Audience Seats, showcasing Yu Kun’s popularity.
Yu Kun lifted his head slightly, stepping out slowly with an air of arrogance on his face.
“Congratulations to the top four contestants, who have moved onto the next round!” The host laughed heartily, “And now, let’s witness the Starstone reward for these four contestants together!”
As the host finished speaking, two powerful contestants appeared with alloy boxes holding Starstones and walked in front of the four contestants.
“One each. After absorption, replace the empty Starstone back to its original place.”
“Gubble!”
Starstones!
Dan Bao swallowed, gazing at the Starstone beautifully set in the base of the box, shimmering with brilliant, nebula-like colors. It felt a strong attraction emanating from the Starstone, itching to pounce on it.
“Crack!”
This one’s yours!
Spicy nudged Dan Bao, signaling it to absorb it quickly.
Since Dan Bao was the only one to take action in the selection battle, it’s only right that it gets to absorb the Starstone.
“Go ahead and absorb it,” Qin Lang carefully picked up the Starstone and handed it over to Dan Bao.
Watching Dan Bao move to absorb it, Spicy quickly looked away.
Cv~~)
A single Starstone, it certainly didn’t care!
Seeing the light orb above Spicy’s head turn red again after a while, Qin Lang couldn’t help but smile, patting its head, “The next one we get is yours to absorb!”
Bear Battle suddenly leaned closer to Qin Lang, speaking in a low voice.
“Look at Yu Kun!”
Hmm?
Qin Lang followed his gaze and his expression slightly hardened.
Yu Kun was assisting his two-star Food Spirit in absorbing the Starstone. The two stars next to his Food Spirit were glowing brightly. The light became more intense as the Star Power was being absorbed.
Qin Lang found this situation all too familiar.
This was an indication of a Food Spirit about to level up!
Could it be that this guy… is about to break through now?!
Qin Lang’s expression immediately tensed.
However, the next moment, his tense expression gradually relaxed.
The two dazzling stars slowly dimmed, but their number remained the same.
Yu Kun’s expression was also slightly unpleasant, a hint of disappointment evident.
“It seems he’s still a bit short,” grinned Bear Battle, obviously gloating, “Thankfully, he hasn’t broken through yet. Otherwise, by the time the ranking competition begins, he might have given birth to a third Food Spirit.”
“He can completely partake in a few Spirit Battles in the next couple of days to gather the remaining Star Power, can’t he?” Qin Lang glanced at Bear Battle.
“No, he can’t,” Bear Battle shook his head, “This was his failed attempt to break through. Under these circumstances, absorbing a small amount of Star Power wouldn’t likely trigger another breakthrough, unless he absorbs a large amount of Star Power again, that is, obtaining another Starstone.”
“So, after the first match of the ranking competition, he’s still going to break through,” Qin Lang rolled his eyes, “I hope I run into him in the first match of the ranking competition.”
Bear Battle laughed, “I hope so too.”
If they encounter Yu Kun in the first match of the ranking competition, they will be up against him before his breakthrough. Not only are their chances of winning greater, but also, if Yu Kun loses, he can only compete for the third place, which would be a heavy blow for such a proud guy.
While the two were chatting, the Food Spirits gradually completed the absorption of Starstones.
Many noticed Yu Kun’s failed attempt at breaking through, and murmurs arose both on-site and from the Audience Seats.
After safely storing the Starstones, the two powerful contestants swiftly escorted the alloy box out.
“The next ranking competition will be held in three days!” The host announced loudly, “Today’s competition officially ends here. Next, we will start with the drawing lots for the order of the ranking competition!”
“Please look at the big screen!”
As the host finished speaking, four red and blue squares appeared on the big screen above, each square showed the scrolling profile pictures of the advanced contestants.
“The red and blue team will proceed with the first round of the ranking competition, winners will be separated from losers to compete in the second round!” The host shouted, “Now… stop!”
As his voice fell, the profile pictures on the screen simultaneously froze.
Red team: Qin Lang vs Ling Ziye
Blue team: Bear Battle vs Yu Kun
