Chapter 100 The Challenge Begins

The Lin family in the imperial capital.

The news that Xu Shisan was going to challenge the entire S Academy also reached the Lin family, and Old Master Lin was also shocked when he heard it.

He thought that this boy was really brave. The students in the S School of the Imperial Capital Academy were all peerless geniuses selected from thousands of people in Dragon Country. Each of them was a B-level summoner, and each of them was the top young generation in Dragon Country. Even if Shen Xuanang was placed in the S School, he would not be considered the most powerful one. There were many people who were stronger than Shen Xuanang.

Challenge the entire S hospital.
It's indeed a bit too arrogant!
However, Mr. Lin is still very optimistic about Xu Shisan.

As young people, if you don’t have any arrogance, any arrogance, or any hot-temperedness, can you still be called a young person?

The Shen family in the imperial capital.

Naturally, this matter quickly spread to the Shen family. Because of the Imperial Capital College Competition these days, Shen Xuanang also took a few days off from the army to prepare for participating in tomorrow's college competition.

As soon as he came back, Shen Xuanang heard the big news that Xu Shisan was going to challenge the entire S Academy.

In response to this, Shen Xuanang could only sneer, thinking that Xu Shisan was really arrogant and looked down on others.

Three months ago, Shen Xuanang and Xu Shisan fought, and Shen Xuanang did admit that Xu Shisan was very powerful. His summoned beast was extremely special and could rival a powerful B-level summoned beast.

However, it is undoubtedly a foolish dream to want to challenge the entire S Academy with just that one summoned beast!

Not to mention him, even a powerful A-level summoner, even the instructors in the Imperial Capital Academy, would not dare to claim that they could challenge the entire S Academy.

You know, there are eighty B-level summoners in S Academy. If they fight in turns, even five A-level summoners can wear them down to death!

········
In the Imperial Capital College, in the office of President Tao Shengming.

The four deans, including Huang Mingshan, Dean of College C, Cui Wenjun, Dean of College B, Kang Mingliang, Dean of College A, and Wang Yangde, Dean of College S, are also here.

Five old men in their sixties and seventies gathered here today, one to discuss the allocation of training resources for tomorrow's Imperial Capital College qualifying competition, and two because of Xu Shisan's challenge to the entire S College today.

After discussing the allocation of resources, Chief Dean Tao Shengming stroked his white beard and laughed, "Mingshan, Wenjun, what do you think of that little guy?"

Huang Mingshan, the dean of C Academy, also laughed and said, "This little guy seems to have studied the rules of the challenge match and found loopholes in the rules. If he wins, he can obtain the opponent's cultivation resources, and if he loses, he doesn't need to pay for his own resources."

"That's right, this kid should have planned it this way, but I have to say, he is quite brave." Cui Wenjun, dean of Hospital B, also laughed.

At this time, President Tao Shengming asked again:

"So how many little monsters in S Courtyard do you think this little guy can defeat?"

Hearing this, Dean Kang Mingliang of A Hospital estimated: "Three months ago, I watched the match between this little guy and Xuanang from a distance. The summoned beast of this little guy is extremely special. It can evolve continuously during the battle. I have never heard of such a summoned beast. However, his strength is still within the C-level range. Although he is more powerful than the little monster in S Hospital, he can only defeat three or five at most, or even less."

“That’s right. Although this little fellow is quite powerful and has a rare talent, his level and age are still there. He may be stronger than the average B-level summoner, but there is still some gap compared to the true geniuses in our S Academy. He can probably defeat three or five of them at most.” Wang Yangde, the dean of S Academy, also thinks so.

As the dean of S Academy, he knew very well how strong the students in S Academy were. After all, Xu Shisan was several years younger than them, and the gap was there.

Therefore, these deans were not optimistic about Xu Shisan. They said that the three or five were overestimating Xu Shisan. In their hearts, they felt that Xu Shisan could only defeat two or three at most.

However, Chief Dean Tao Shengming didn't think so. He gestured to everyone with the number "eight" and said, "I don't think so. I feel that this little guy can defeat at least eight people."

Seeing this number, Wang Yangde, the dean of S Institute, shook his head in disbelief and said with a smile: "Brother Shengming, although this little guy is very capable, his age is there. If he is allowed to grow for another two years, I might think that he has this ability, but with his current condition, he really can't do it."

Dean of A College Kang Mingliang also agreed with Wang Yangde's words: "Yes, Brother Shengming, you really overestimate that little guy. It is difficult for even the A-level instructors of our college to win eight consecutive victories over the little monsters of S College."

Dean of C Hospital Huang Mingshan and Dean of B Hospital Cui Wenjun also thought so: "That's right, Brother Shengming, if that little guy wins three or four games in a row, it will be a slap in the face of the entire S Hospital. Those little monsters will have to show their true strength. If we send out one of the top ten players on the strong list, how can this little guy be a match?"

Hearing that the four people all refuted him, Chief Dean Tao Shengming stroked his white beard again and said with a smile: "Since we don't agree, how about making a bet?"

"Oh? How to bet?" asked Wang Yangde, Dean of S Institute.

"If I lose, I will take out the bottle of fine wine that I have treasured for thirty years. If you lose, you have to take out some resources as an extra reward to that little guy." Tao Shengming stated his bet.

After hearing the bet, the four of them agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, the four of us take this bet."

"Brother Shengming, I remember that you and the four of us have made nine bets since thirty years ago. The stakes for each bet were this bottle of fine wine, but you won every time. We haven't had this bottle of fine wine for thirty years. This is the tenth time, and I think you should take out this bottle of fine wine."

"Haha, really? I don't think so. I want to brew this good wine for another 20 years."

········
Inside Imperial College.

As of today, more than 40 students from S College have returned.

And these more than 40 seniors from S College had also heard the news that Xu Shisan was going to challenge them.

Some seniors treated Xu Shisan as a clown and thought he was just trying to attract attention.

Some seniors were extremely angry. They felt that Xu Shisan was belittling them and shitting on their necks. They decided to teach this guy a lesson tomorrow.

But more seniors still don’t care about Xu Shisan’s challenge.

Because in their opinion, Xu Shisan's challenge to them was undoubtedly to show up and get beaten, and any two people could easily defeat him.

But no matter what, this news has become the biggest news in the capital. Even the thirty or forty seniors from S College who have not returned from outside have decided to come back to see what is going on. The students from A College actually threatened to challenge their entire S College. They have never encountered such a thing before.

Nothing like this has happened since the establishment of the Imperial Capital Academy.

For a while, it seemed like a storm was brewing. Everyone was paying attention to this matter, and everyone was looking forward to tomorrow's duel.

·······
On the third day, at 9:30 in the morning, the duel arena of the Imperial Capital Academy.

There was still half an hour until ten o'clock in the morning, but the duel arena was already full of people. All the students of the Imperial Capital Academy, including instructors from various academies, were present. At this moment, they were all sitting in the spectator seats, discussing the matter eagerly.

"Hey, hey, hey, is Xu Shisan here? Didn't he say he was going to challenge the entire S Academy today? Why hasn't he come yet?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? There's still half an hour until ten o'clock."

"There are quite a few seniors from S College here. I just counted them and there are more than fifty of them."

"There are still a dozen or so over there. There should be nearly seventy of them. They are almost all here."

"Is that Senior Han? I heard that he has reached the level of a B-class summoner at the age of 24, and has three powerful B-class summoned beasts."

"Yes, that is Senior Han Tianci. I heard that he was a student in the national training camp before and after, and he also represented our Dragon Country in the Summoner's Competition before and after. It's a pity that he was only a D-level summoner at that time. If he was one year younger and Senior Han participated in the last Summoner's Competition, our Dragon Country might have broken the curse of being ranked last in the last competition."

"I remember Senior Han was the fourth-ranked student on the S Academy rankings."

"That's right. Senior Feng, who ranked first, seems to have officially graduated this year due to age issues, so Senior Han should be ranked third on the list now."

"Look, Senior Shen Xuanang is here too, sitting there."

"Senior Shen's strength is in the upper middle of the pack in S Academy. I heard that his talent is higher than that of Senior Han Tianci, but he only has two B-level contracted beasts. Otherwise, Senior Shen would be ranked third on the Strongest List. If Xu Shisan was able to defeat Senior Shen Xuanang three months ago, can he also defeat other seniors in S Academy?"

"That's not necessarily true. Each of the seniors in S Academy is a monster. Each of their summoned beasts has different abilities and they restrain each other. I think it would be good if Xu Shisan could defeat two or three of them."

In the spectator seats, students from Colleges C, B, and A gathered together and discussed enthusiastically. Logically, today was also the college's ranking competition, and they needed to go to the training area to draw lots for the competition.

But today, in order to watch Xu Shisan challenge the entire S College, they directly suspended the ranking competition within the college and all came here to watch the game. After all, the ranking competition wouldn't make any difference in the morning.

The instructors of various colleges also acquiesced to this behavior, because they also wanted to see how Xu Shisan challenged the entire S College.

Over there, in the rightmost area of ​​the duel arena's spectator stands, there were dozens of people sitting sparsely there. They were the students of S Academy.

After hearing that Xu Shisan was going to challenge the entire S College, nearly seventy of the eighty B-level seniors in S College came today, and only a dozen were unable to come to the college because they had other things to do.

These dozens of seniors, sitting in the spectator seats, had indifferent expressions, as if they were all waiting for Xu Shisan to appear.

Shen Xuanang naturally came over as well. He sat far away, listening to his junior classmates from other colleges using him as a unit of measurement to discuss the combat power of Xu Shisan and others. He felt very upset inside.

The loss to Xu Shisan three months ago was a stain on his life.

Soon, time passed by minute by minute, and the president of the Imperial Capital College, Tao Shengming, and the four presidents also came to the duel arena and walked to the spectator seats.

Seeing that Chief Dean Tao Shengming and the four deans were all there, the students on the scene caused another sensation.

Soon, it was about to be ten o'clock in the morning. As the protagonist of today, Xu Shisan also came to the duel arena. As soon as he came up, he walked to the center of the ring.

He glanced around and was not surprised to see that all the students in the academy had arrived.

He looked towards the viewing area on the far right, where all the seniors from College S were sitting.

Xu Shisan stood in the middle of the arena, clasped his fists slightly to the dozens of them, and said, "Hello, fellow S College seniors. I am Xu Shisan from Class 8 of A College. It is my honor to challenge you today."

"I heard that in previous years, the seniors from S College felt that they did not have enough training resources, so they would come to participate in the annual challenge to challenge our A College class. Coincidentally, I have not had enough training resources recently, so I would like to ask the seniors for some."

"It's not appropriate to ask directly, it's not polite, so I can only borrow some from you seniors in this way."

"If the seniors present here can lend me the training resources that the academy has provided for you for half a year, I promise to step down immediately and never challenge you again."

Hearing these words, all the students present in S Academy couldn't help but show a trace of anger on their faces.

Xu Shisan's provocative intention was already very clear.

If they don't put out half a year's resources, he will continue the challenge. This is completely disregarding all of them and is too arrogant!

One of the seniors from S College couldn't stand it anymore. He slapped his chair, stood up and angrily shouted at Xu Shisan on the stage: "Boy, where do you get the courage to say such things?"

In response, Xu Shisan smiled slightly and said, "Of course I gave myself the courage, because I am stronger than everyone here!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar!

Better than everyone here, this statement is really arrogant!

This is simply shitting on the head of the entire S Hospital!
