Chapter 87 The Arrogant Ross
"You guys just wait and reap the rewards." After saying that, the fat man stood up from his seat and walked towards the registration area for the arena below.
If Jiang Han saw this fat man, he would definitely recognize him as Luo Song, whom he had met at the Trial Hall last time. Although he was admitted to the Ice Academy, it was not the Ice Academy of the main campus, but the Ice Academy of the Qing Campus.
The person who had just spoken to Luo Song said disdainfully, "Just sit back and collect resources? You think you're some hidden master? (ˉ▽ ̄~) Tch~~."
Luo Song ignored the people who were mocking him and went straight to the registration area. Because Wang Liting's Bone Eater was too domineering and ferocious, very few people challenged it. They were scattered and obviously didn't want to kick the Bone Eater, which was a tough nut to crack.
"You want to participate in this competition?" The person in charge of the registration desk was an acquaintance, none other than Wang Ling, the mentor who had assessed Luo Song back then.
Luo Song nodded and said, "Yes."
"Alright, you can go on in the next round."
Luo Song had only been registered for a short time when it was his turn to go on stage with six or seven other stubborn students. As soon as Luo Song stepped onto the stage, Wang Liting noticed him. Perched atop the Bone-Eating Demon's back, Wang Liting looked down at him with a smirk and said, "Little fatty, do you know what my Bone-Eating Demon likes to eat most? It likes to eat people like you with lots of fat."
Luo Song ignored Wang Liting's words and said with interest, "Do you know how many pieces a block of ice will break when it falls from a height of thirty meters?"
"What did you say? I think you're out of your mind, you little fatso." Wang Liting didn't understand what Luo Song was talking about, and ordered the bone-eating demons under his feet to start attacking. This little fatso was acting crazy and was too annoying.
"I don't know if you're sick or not, but if your bone-eating demon's bones aren't strong, it'll get sick very soon," Rosson said arrogantly.
After Luo Song finished speaking, he closed his eyes and began to construct an ice-based star map. Sky-blue star trails appeared around him. When Luo Song opened his eyes, countless wisps of cold air began to appear in the huge arena.
Crackling sounds filled the air as ice quickly covered the entire arena. Beneath Ross's feet, a sky-blue ice star map intertwined, containing immense energy that began to radiate outwards from Ross.
"Ice Lock!!"
The frozen ice on the ground shattered, and thick ice chains flew out from the cracks, heading towards the bone-eating demon hovering in the air. When Wang Liting saw the fat man release the mid-level ice magic, Ice Chains, his expression changed drastically, and he cried out in alarm. Under Luo Song's control, the ice chains completely blocked the bone-eating demon's path, finally binding it tightly.
Even the strongest Bone Eater was merely a servant-level summoned beast. It was quickly invaded by the icy power within the Ice Lock, and its skin, powerless to resist, was soon covered with glistening white frost, eventually freezing it into a lifelike ice sculpture.
Frozen into an ice sculpture, the bone-eating demon could no longer fly and eventually turned into specks of moon-white starlight, returning to the dimensional world.
As for Wang Liting, who was on the back of the Bone Eater, he fell from a great height and fainted on the spot. When Gu Han saw this, he immediately arranged for the medical team to take the unconscious Wang Liting away.
Luo Song's mid-level magic ruthlessly subdued the Bone Eater, and he pointed at the remaining two students from the Summoning Department, saying, "You two come at me together, don't waste my time."
The remaining two were furious, but they showed no sign of backing down. They were determined to get revenge for daring to look down on their summoning class, no matter what, even if he was a mid-level mage.
"Mo Fan, aren't you coming with us?" a summoning student asked.
Mo Fan opened his eyes and said calmly, "I need to help my summoned beast recover from its injuries. You guys help me buy some time. Once my summoned beast has recovered, I'll deal with that fat guy."
"Summoning beasts to heal their injuries, huh? What kind of time is this to still have this excuse to fool us? Do they think we're idiots?"
"Making excuses to fool us at a time like this? Bah! He's a disgrace to our summoning system."
The two summoning students infuriated Mo Fan, causing veins to bulge on his forehead. If he weren't helping the Ghost Wolf recover from its injuries, he probably would have already used fire to teach those two arrogant bastards a lesson. Suppressing his displeasure, he closed his eyes and focused his consciousness on his mental world, beginning to channel the magical energy from the summoning stardust into the Ghost Wolf to help it heal, ignoring the two snobbish students.
"I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me?" one of the students said, ready to teach Mo Fan a lesson.
Upon seeing this, Zheng Bingxiao quickly reached out to stop him, saying, "What if Mo Fan's summoned beast is really injured? You two go first, and we'll stay here and watch him. If he's the type to run away at the last minute, we'll report it to Teacher Jiang later and have him punish Mo Fan. What do you think?"
"Hmm, I think it's a good idea. You two go first. We can't let that fat guy look down on us summoners," the short, thin youth agreed.
"Yeah, that fat guy was too arrogant. If we hadn't been eliminated, we definitely would have gone up and taught him a lesson. Does being a mid-level mage make him so great? Does he really think we summoners are pushovers?" Hai Dafu said indignantly.
After being reassured by Zheng Bingxiao and the other two, the two students discussed their options and walked onto the central fighting arena. Seeing the two approaching, Luo Song's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he said, "Trying to attack me from both sides?"
After the two students summoned their respective summoned beasts, they attacked Rosson from the left and right. In their view, Rosson's intermediate-level magic could only deal with one summoned beast at a time, and the two of them would be able to easily take down Rosson by attacking from both sides.
But ideals are beautiful, reality is cruel. Rosson released a low-level ice vine spell, covering the area around him. The ice vine was enough to significantly reduce the speed of the two summoned beasts. Rosson took advantage of this moment to use Earth Wave Teleportation to move himself to a relatively safe position. When the angle was right, he immediately released Ice Lock to firmly bind the two summoned beasts. The Ice Lock shook violently, and the two summoned beasts turned into specks of moon-white starlight and dissipated in the arena.
After the two summoning students were dealt with, Luo Song said arrogantly, "Tsk tsk, I didn't expect your summoning department to be so weak. If it weren't for the lack of people, your summoning department's cultivation resources would have belonged to our Ice Academy."
"Sigh, life is so unpredictable. Just now, the summoning class was on fire, but now there's only one student left."
"It's not the summoners' fault; after all, a mid-level mage appeared in this year's beast-fighting tournament."
"I originally wanted to make a name for myself in this beast fighting competition, but who knew that the fat guy would steal the spotlight."
"Shh, bro, keep your voice down. You'll offend people if they hear you."
Jiang Han, sitting in the audience, frowned slightly. Luo Song seemed to have gone a bit too far. And what was Mo Fan doing? Given his nature, he shouldn't be able to tolerate this much. Could he have run into some trouble?
Suddenly, Jiang Han remembered that at this point in the original story, Mo Fan's Ghost Wolf Beast seemed to have been severely injured while challenging other dimensional creatures in the dimensional space. Could it be that Mo Fan didn't intervene because of this? What a coincidence! Originally, Jiang Han thought that the plot change would prevent Luo Song and Mo Fan from having any further interactions. However, they could still run into each other in the beast fighting competition. Although their methods of conflict were different, the essence was the same.
"Mo Fan, I was originally planning to deliver a fatal blow to you during your moment of showing off, but who would have thought you'd be so unlucky as to have your Ghost Wolf Beast get injured during the beast fighting competition? Oh well, for Xin Xia and Mei Yan's sake, I'll reluctantly help you out this time." Jiang Han muttered a few complaints in his mind before leaving his position with Xue Ling in his arms and heading towards the registration area below.
