Chapter 139: Wei Kaiyuan! Shadow Dominator!
No one expected it.
In the draw for the quarter-finals, two of Dragon Nation's top academies met early.
A civil war within Dragon Nation!
When the screen was frozen under the commentary's indication, the information presented on the matchup chart was...
Xuanyuan Academy VS Mosters Academy!
Damn!
This immediately caused the Dragon Nation audience to let out helpless wails.
On the other hand, the audience from the alien empires were all smiles.
As long as the humans were unhappy, they would be happy.
Originally, in the quarter-finals, only two teams were from Dragon Nation.
Now, unexpectedly, right at the beginning of the quarter-finals, Dragon Nation had to 'cut off an arm.'
This meant that in the semi-finals, only one Dragon Nation academy team could make it.
Although the alien academies also had to fight internally in this round.
But they had six teams.
"Teams, please come to the stage and prepare!"
The referee also helplessly indicated for both teams to take the stage.
If this wasn't a competition held in Dragon Nation, he would have suspected it was deliberately against Dragon Nation.
The draw was extremely fair and completely random, with no possibility of manipulation.
As the host nation, if Dragon Nation wanted to be unfair, it could have directly assigned all Dragon Nation teams to fight weaker teams and let the vampire, elf, and demon teams eliminate each other.
Since that didn't happen now, it further proved the fairness of the draw.
The referee certainly didn't want to see the Dragon Nation teams clash early, but there was no other way.
The audience hesitated.
Undoubtedly, Xuanyuan Academy had a higher chance of winning than Mosters Academy because Xuanyuan Academy had the prodigy Wang Chen.
After the previous two rounds of battles, many people also found that although Wang Chen was only level 70, his individual combat power was absolutely not inferior to Mosters Academy's players.
Maybe even superior.
The reason the audience hesitated was…
They, as local viewers, wanted to support Mosters Academy for victory.
But they weren't blind and could see that Xuanyuan Academy had a better chance of advancing to the semi-finals to face the strong teams from the alien empires.
"Both sides, go for it!"
"Let your strength speak!"
"Whoever wins gets into the semi-finals!"
At this moment, the Dragon Nation audience collectively cheered.
When they reached the stage, the captain of Mosters Academy, the freshman top ranker Wei Kaiyuan, stood directly opposite Wang Chen.
Wei Kaiyuan looked stern, his eyes filled with fighting spirit as he stared at Wang Chen.
It was this guy…
That made Mosters Academy a laughingstock among many schools.
This also made him, the freshman top ranker, have his strength questioned.
Now.
He had already declared that he would beat Wang Chen and Xuanyuan Academy to a pulp.
Let's see how it turns out.
"I know your beast pet is strong, but bring it on."
"I'll show you what it means to come and never return!"
Wei Kaiyuan said seriously.
Wang Chen had no reaction, his eyes still calm.
Because in this battle, he didn't plan to summon his beast pet.
The reason was simple; he wanted to try a new technique.
Last night, his [Trait Extraction] talent reacted again.
It allowed Wang Chen to extract two talent skills from Xiao Qing and Xiao Zi.
Today was the perfect opportunity to try them out!
The referee also didn't want this internal fight to last too long.
He quickly raised his hand, signaling that the countdown had begun.
Three-second countdown.
Gone in a flash.
At the end of it, both sides started to tense their nerves.
Neither side's front line chose to charge rashly, instead, they cautiously adopted combat-ready stances, staring at each other intently.
Meanwhile, both sides' support classes began crazily buffing their teammates.
'Battle Cry!'
This was a buff skill used by Mosters Academy's two shield warriors on themselves and their teammates.
'Light's Gift!'
'Holy Blessing!'
'Courage Blessing!'
...
Both sides' priests also spared no effort in stacking buffs on their teammates.
It was clear that both sides were brewing something.
Once they started charging, this battle should end quickly!
Judging by their stance, both sides aimed to give it their all and crush the other side in one go.
Wei Kaiyuan's class was Rogue.
Rogues might not be great for dungeons, but in personal combat, especially in large open spaces, they were a nightmare class.
Here, nightmare class meant causing endless trouble for the opponent, who couldn't catch them.
His second job as a Rogue was named 'Lone Ranger.'
The name alone suggested how troublesome it was.
After the third job change, it became the Shadow Dominator.
Its ability to single out key targets was even more terrifying.
This class was one of the top ten most feared by rear-line classes.
"Lao Liu, Lao Zhang, charge."
"Everyone else assists them, just withstand the damage!"
"As for Wang Chen, I'll take care of him!"
Wei Kaiyuan said confidently.
Was Mosters Academy's entry into the quarter-finals a coincidence?
Of course not, they got there with genuine strength.
This couldn't be separated from Wei Kaiyuan's outstanding personal strength.
In the last match.
They faced the Golden Academy from the Dwarf Empire.
Their captain was single-handedly taken down by Wei Kaiyuan in a surprising manner.
At that time, many assassin classes on stage couldn't help but exclaim at Wei Kaiyuan's amazing performance.
Wei Kaiyuan, the freshman top ranker of Mosters Academy, was truly impressive.
His ability to single out key targets was exceptional.
His teammates were long accustomed to his commanding style.
All they had to do was hold their ground!
Wei Kaiyuan would naturally use his sharpest dagger to reduce the opponent's numbers.
Well…
He also planned to charge alone.
High skill gives great courage.
Boom!
Mosters Academy's players formally started their charge.
"Go."
Having watched two rounds of Mosters Academy's matches, Wang Chen also calmly issued the command.
He was well aware of Wei Kaiyuan's combat style.
Moreover…
Wei Kaiyuan's level was indeed high, higher than some provincial champions in Dragon Nation.
Meng Yongsheng, Shen Miao, and others couldn't beat Wei Kaiyuan in solo fights.
After all, his class was strong in solo battles.
Now.
Upon Wang Chen's order, except for the rear-line Cao Wenbin, Zhou Keke, and Huang Fan, Feng Yurong, Meng Yongsheng, and Shen Miao all rushed forward.
Shen Miao charged in her mech, acting as the frontline, reducing the pressure on her teammates.
Boom!
The two teams collided fiercely!
Centered at the contact point, a terrifying shockwave spread out!
And Wei Kaiyuan's figure disappeared, as if merging into the void…
