Chapter 270: Crisis! One Against Three at the Beginning

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“I hereby announce! This year’s academy ranking assessment—begin!”

As soon as the commentator finished speaking, the huge teleportation door in the square immediately activated.

Accompanied by a low buzzing sound, the huge teleportation door began to emit a colorful light. The few academies ranked last immediately rushed in!

In the blink of an eye, only the top three teams were left in the square.

Under this harsh rule, they had already become fat meat targeted by everyone. Before thinking of a countermeasure, rashly entering would only lead to death!

After a moment of silence, Yi Han went to Gao Lixuan’s side and asked softly, “Brother Xuan, how about we form an alliance with the Kaiyang Academy?

Gao Lixuan was the captain of the Yuheng Academy. Although his points were not as high as Fang Tianyu’s, he was still worth 500 points, which was equivalent to ten black iron-quality mutated beasts. He would also become the target of everyone’s focus fire.

In addition, both sides had just united against the outside world for Zhou Xiruo, so Yi Han felt that joining forces with the Kaiyang Academy was their best choice at the moment.

However, what Yi Han did not expect was that after Gao Lixuan heard his suggestion, he actually shook his head without hesitation.

“I won’t cooperate with them.”

Gao Lixuan seemed to be talking to Yi Han, but his eyes were fixed on Fang Tianyu. “5,500 points is not a small advantage. If we want to win this competition, we can’t let it go.”

Yi Han panicked. “But…”

“No buts.”

Gao Lixuan waved his hand to interrupt Yi Han. Then, he walked straight to Fang Tianyu. “If you are willing to lead the entire team to surrender to me, perhaps I can consider it.”

“It’s the same for me.”

Fang Tianyu replied expressionlessly and coldly. Tang Hengshan and the others also glared at Gao Lixuan, as if the “unity against the outside world” just now was just a dream.

Seeing that both sides were at daggers drawn, Zhou Xiruo, who was sandwiched in the middle, had a difficult expression on her face. One side had her new classmates, and the other side had her old schoolmates. It was really wrong to help either side.

Fortunately, Gao Lixuan did not care. He only laughed and walked towards the teleportation door. “You all have very strong personalities. I like it very much.

I’ll let you live first… for an hour!”

Hearing Gao Lixuan’s arrogant declaration, Tang Hengshan and the others immediately gritted their teeth in hatred. However, by the time they wanted to chase after him and argue, Gao Lixuan had already walked far away.

Everyone from Yuheng Academy followed. When Zhou Xiruo passed by Fang Tianyu, she whispered, “I’m sorry.” Fang Tianyu smiled and was about to speak when someone suddenly grabbed her hand.

“And you are?”

Fang Tianyu did not know Xu Junrou, but she could tell that she seemed to have a good relationship with Zhou Xiruo, so her attitude was not so stiff.

Xu Junrou looked at the people from Yuheng Academy. After confirming that they had already walked far away, she suddenly whispered into Fang Tianyu’s ear, “I’m Wang Xiao. I have a plan…’

After passing through the teleportation gate, a vast wasteland appeared in front of Zhou Xiruo.

Zhou Xiruo stood still in a daze. Although she was still worried about Wang Xiao, she still tried her best to adjust her mental state and prepare for the battle after entering the secret realm.

Suddenly, a cry sounded from behind. Zhou Xiruo recognized that it was Yi Han’s voice and subconsciously turned around. She was almost instantly stunned by the scene in front of her!

It was true that they were deep in a wasteland, but about 300 meters behind them, a straight dividing line cut off the wasteland. Further ahead, it actually turned into a lava area with surging heat waves!

Looking along the dividing line to the left, the iceberg and sea venue came into view again. The four completely different venues had actually been forcefully pieced together by someone!

It was not only Yi Han and Zhou Xiruo. When the other students saw this, they were also stunned on the spot as if they had been struck by lightning. Even Gao Lixuan, who had always been calm, was no exception.

After nearly a minute, a voice asked, “Where are we going?

Everyone came back to their senses and realized that it was Xu Junrou who spoke.

Gao Lixuan frowned and asked in confusion, “What did you say? What do you mean?”

“Which venue are we going to?”

Xu Junrou pointed at the cross dividing line in the distance. “This is obviously deliberately set up by the competition authorities. My suggestion is to consider everyone’s [Lord Talent] and find a suitable attribute venue to build a base—I‘

At this point, Xu Junrou pointed at Zhou Xiruo beside her. “I believe everyone Imows the use of the base very well. Since we have a [construction lord], it would be a waste not to use it.”

“Good point.”

Gao Lixuan nodded and clapped his hands to gather everyone. “With my [Lord Talent], I’m not picky about the attributes of the venue. Report the attributes of the venue that you’re suitable for. We’ll follow the majority!”

With the team leader’s instructions, everyone immediately took action.

At the same time, Zhou Xiruo frowned slightly and looked at Xu Junrou. She vaguely felt that the way she spoke just now sounded a little familiar.

“Could it be that Wang Xiao…”

A bold idea entered Zhou Xiruo’s mind, but she immediately shook her head and rejected it. Xu Junrou hugged her several times today. If she was Wang Xiao in disguise… No, no! It definitely wasn’t!

“I’m probably thinking too much. Xu Junrou has a military background. It’s not strange for her to analyze the problem more clearly.”

Zhou Xiruo thought to herself. She touched her burning face and glanced at Xu Junrou before going to Gao Lixuan to report the attributes of the venue she was suitable for.

There were only ten people in the entire team, and the statistics were quickly out.

Other than Gao Lixuan and Yi Han, who didn’t care, there were two people who preferred the ice-element venue. One preferred the sea venue, two preferred the fire-element venue, and three preferred the earth-element venue.

Therefore, with the slight advantage of “one additional person”, Gao Lixuan decided to build a base in the earth-element wasteland.

Upon receiving the order, Zhou Xiruo immediately began to build the base. However, just as she took out the materials, a team of participants descended from the sky!

Everyone from Yuheng Academy instantly became vigilant. Gao Lixuan and Yi Han took large strides and blocked in front at the same time, while the others protected Zhou Xiruo in the middle. After all, if the [construction lord] was gone, their base would be ruined.

Whoosh!

The ten of them only made a light sound when they landed. It was obvious that they had used wind attribute magic. The person in the lead was tall and handsome. It was Liu Yuyang, who had come to greet them earlier!

“Everyone, long time no see!”

Liu Yuyang greeted with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes. His indifferent gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Zhou Xiruo’s face. “I said that I would definitely make you my vassal lord.”

Xu Junrou took a step forward to block Zhou Xiruo. She looked at Liu Yuyang from afar and said coldly, “I also said that you can dream on!”

Liu Yuyang smiled. “You’ll know soon if I’m dreaming or not.”

Just as he finished speaking, another gust of wind approached. Everyone from the Yuheng Academy looked up and their expressions instantly darkened!

In the sky, at least two teams of participants were riding the wind from the ice mountain venue and the lava venue!
