Chapter 22 A Glimmer of Hope
"Damn it!" Mo Fan gritted his teeth as he watched the wooden dragon rushing towards him, and used the dragon's shadow to escape.
The wooden dragon missed its target, blasting a large crater in the ground, sending rocks flying and dust billowing everywhere.
"Damn, Lao Lu, you really went all out!" Mo Fan looked at the huge crater, still feeling a bit shaken. If he had been hit like that, he would probably be covered in bruises.
"Old Mo, I'm very happy today, but your tone just now spoiled my mood, so..." Lu Jie said, while urging the wooden dragon beside him to rush towards Mo Fan again.
Damn it!!!
Seeing the wooden dragon charging at him again, Mo Fan was completely stunned. On the other side, his Ghost Wolf Beast was being teased by the wooden dragon that Lu Jie had summoned at the beginning. Now he was facing this one. Damn it, how the hell was he going to fight this?
On the other side, the girl next to Xu Zhaoting had her mouth slightly open, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"Zhao...Zhao Ting, are you sure...they're high school classmates who haven't seen each other for a year?"
Xu Zhaoting looked at the two fighting in the "Beast Fighting Cage" and nodded with a bitter expression.
"They... are always inexplicably powerful."
Xu Zhaoting said that his worldview had been completely shattered, and that the two people were completely abnormal and could not be understood by common sense.
At the same time, Mo Fan summoned the Ghost Wolf Beast back to his side.
Two wooden dragons stood one behind the other, their golden eyes looking at them indifferently.
"Old Mo, are you ready for a desperate fight?" Lu Jie raised an eyebrow.
Mo Fan rode directly onto the back of the Ghost Wolf Beast. At this moment, he finally realized how passive it was to not have the ability to fly.
Damn it, where did that bastard Lu get his plant spirit seed? It's like that man Hashirama Senju. Could it be that besides the Wood Dragon, he can use other Wood Release techniques?
Then I might be able to see the Buddha statue someday.
"Old Lu, if I don't rip you off a few times in the future, all that suffering today will have been for nothing."
Lu Jie drove the two wooden dragons to attack Mo Fan, while Mo Fan immediately had the Ghost Wolf Beast summon flying sand and stones.
A strange, eerie wind suddenly arose, sweeping wildly across the ground, swirling up sand, gravel, and dust to form a small sandstorm.
Although not as overwhelming as a sandstorm, the dust and debris stirred up by the Ghost Wolf Beast had already covered a third of the entire fighting cage area.
The two wooden dragons were swept into the sandstorm, and the sand and gravel struck their bodies with dull thuds.
"Thunderbolt - Top-Down Strike!"
Mo Fan quickly drew a lightning star map, and with a Thunderclap Strike combined with the Ghost Wolf Beast's three-stage burst, he completely shattered the two wooden dragons.
Shavings covered in charred wood fell from the sky and scattered throughout the entire fighting cage.
"Old Lu, your wooden dragon isn't all that great."
The rain stopped, the sky cleared, and Da Mofan felt he was back to normal.
The mere wooden dragon was utterly shattered under such an attack.
"Really?" Lu Jie smiled mysteriously.
Immediately afterwards, a massive surge of magical energy flowed into the ground from the soles of his feet, transforming into a source of life that brought the wood chips scattered in the fighting cage back to life.
They quickly sprouted new buds, which then transformed into countless tree-like vines that rapidly coiled around Mo Fan.
"Damn it! This is cheating!" Mo Fan urged the Ghost Wolf Beast to flee frantically.
However, the entire fighting cage was almost entirely made of tree-like vines, leaving no room to run.
At this moment, the students in the audience were dumbfounded, or rather, numb.
Good heavens, is that plant-type freshman really a mid-level mage? His magical energy reserves are truly impressive. Wouldn't he be incredibly happy to be his girlfriend?
Moreover, the summoning-type freshman was actually being overwhelmed, and his previous arrogant demeanor was now in a sorry state.
"Someone tell me, what the hell is going on? Am I dreaming?"
"Holy crap, could it be that some powerful psychic has intervened, causing us to have this hallucination?"
"Even with some kind of shadow magic tool, that summoning freshman couldn't dodge it. It seems he's not far from losing."
"Holy crap, are they really mid-level mages?"
"Then the plant-based freshmen only used plant-based students with plant species, so the outcome is already decided."
…………
On the high platform, Dean Xiao stroked his beard and said with considerable emotion, "Truly, the younger generation surpasses the older!"
Zhou Zhenghua couldn't help but ask, "Is that plant-based freshman really a mid-level mage?"
The implication is that it's impossible for a mid-level mage to have such a large reserve of magical energy.
"If I'm not mistaken, this must be some kind of innate talent," Dean Xiao said with a smile. Besides Lu Jie, he had also noticed Mo Fan's technique of diving into the shadows, which was not some kind of shadow magic tool.
Innate talent?
The department heads exchanged glances, wondering just how gifted this new botany student was, possessing such extraordinary talent.
"Give them proper nurturing; both of them are promising talents."
Mu Qing, the head of the botany department, and Jiang Yunming, the summoning department, nodded repeatedly. It would be their fault if they didn't nurture such a good seedling.
In the end, Mo Fan couldn't escape and was entangled in a large bundle of wooden vines, leaving only his head exposed. He was writhing on the ground like a maggot.
Meanwhile, the Ghost Wolf Beast was swinging on a swing nearby, having a great time.
"Old Lu, hurry up and untie me! My reputation is ruined!" Mo Fan cried.
"Speak properly." Lu Jie smiled.
"Brother, you're my own brother, I beg you, let me go, I give up."
There's no way to be defiant. This is only because Lao Lu only used one plant-type skill to overwhelm him. Mo Fan can't even imagine what Lao Lu would be like if he went all out.
Lu Jie untied the wood vines binding Mo Fan, and at the same time, he released the restraints on the Ghost Wolf Beast.
"What a fucking freak! I knew I shouldn't have bothered playing with you." Mo Fan recalled the Ghost Wolf Beast to the summoning plane, guessing that the old wolf would never fight Old Lu again.
Mo Fan left the stage, but Lu Jie did not. Instead, he clasped his hands in a fist salute and said:
"Sorry everyone, I just kicked someone who wanted to seize all the resources in the system down, and here I am again."
At the same time, the entire Qingdou Hall fell into an eerie silence.
Seriously, bro? You just kicked someone who wanted to grab all the resources out of the system, and now you're here?
You two were in cahoots, weren't you?
We thought we were on the road to recovery, but it turned out to be a dead end. They're just taking advantage of us, aren't they?
"Dean Xiao, there's no strict requirement that only summoners can do this, right?" After saying the previous question, Lu Jie asked Dean Xiao on the platform.
Dean Xiao chuckled and said, "No, this rule applies not only to the Summoning system, but also to other systems."
Dean Xiao's words caused an uproar throughout the entire Qingdou Hall...
