124 Academy League (1)
The Academy League was a grand event that happened once every three years.
A few days before the league began, West Eagle Academy had already started a new semester.
The entire academy was filled with excitement.
As he walked in the academy, he could see people discussing the league excitedly and expectantly at all times.
!!
According to the rules of the league over the years, all academies had to send a team of five students to participate.
Three days before the league, West Eagle Academy had already announced the roster.
As expected.
As the academy’s top disciple, Ye Fan appeared in the first line of the list.
Next were Zou Gen, Wang Xinggu, Duan Shaoming, and Shen Yi.
The selection of participants was naturally based on the rankings of the Inter-academy Tournament.
There was no need to say anything about Ye Fan. As for Zou Gen and Duan Shaoming, they were the second and third place in the academy competition.
Wang Xinggu and Shen Yi were not particularly ranked high.
However, the two of them were not weak to begin with. They had only lost in the school tournament because of bad luck.
This time, the two of them broke through to Rank 5 before the league and successfully obtained the qualifications to participate.
In other words.
The participants of the West Eagle Academy were all at the fifth rank.
Their lineup could be said to be the strongest in history.
“Even so, we can’t let our guard down.”
In the conference room, Li Peiliang sat at the head of the conference table and looked at the five participants.
“The Red Snake Academy and the Dark Moon Academy are equally aggressive this time. The participants of both academies are all at the fifth rank and are very strong.”
“Even the teams from the other academies have fifth-rank Beast Tamers. It can be said that the overall strength of the participants in this year’s league has improved greatly compared to previous years. The competition will probably be much more intense. You have to be mentally prepared.”
Zou Gen, Shen Yi, Wang Xinggu, and Duan Shaoming nodded solemnly.
Only Ye Fan was the calmest.
In his eyes, the school tournament was just a process of farming evolution points.
The day after tomorrow was the league day.
After discussing the time and venue, the short meeting ended.
Ye Fan slowly walked out of the meeting room. Not long after, Shen Yi caught up to him.
“Ah Fan, I heard you contracted a new pet.”
Shen Yi smiled.
After the tomb incident, her relationship with Ye Fan had become much closer, and even the way she addressed him had changed.
“Yes, a support-type Flower Sprite.”
Ye Fan casually replied, calmly sizing up Shen Yi.
From her expression, it was obvious that she did not know about the three Li family members.
Xu Menghan and Xiao Qiuya were still very cautious in this aspect. They knew that the fewer people who knew about this, the better.
Therefore, no matter how good their relationship was, they would not reveal it.
Thus, Shen Yi still didn’t know that Ye Fan had defeated a senior Rank-6 Beast Tamer.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t know how shocked she would be.
Even so, Shen Yi was already very emotional.
A first-year student had advanced to the fifth rank.
He had also become a publicly recognized trump card and main warrior in the roster.
In the past league teams of the West Eagle Academy, only Ye Fan could do this.
…
Soon, it was the day of the league.
Early in the morning.
Ye Fan, Shen Yi, and the others gathered at the academy.
Li Peiliang, who was the leader, led the team to the huge open-air square in the center of the city.
The closer they got to the square, the denser the traffic.
This showed how lively and popular the league was.
In order to avoid the traffic of people entering the venue, the participating teams of the various academies walked through the staff entrance.
After getting out of the car, everyone followed Li Peiliang into the spacious passage.
Along the way, they could see many men and women with young faces.
Clearly, they were all participants from other academies.
Seeing Ye Fan and the others, these people all looked over.
Zou Gen, Wang Xinggu, and the others were also secretly sizing each other up.
After all, the students who appeared here could be considered potential competitors.
It would naturally be better if they could obtain some information in advance.
The group of people closest to Ye Fan and the others were all high-spirited. As they walked, they raised their chins slightly, looking at the surrounding crowd with a faint sense of superiority.
The moment they brushed past each other.
Ye Fan could clearly hear the conversation of that group of young men and women.
“I think they’re from West Eagle Academy.”
“Ah, weren’t they defeated by us last year?”
“That’s the one. From the looks of it, their participants this year don’t seem very powerful.”
“The West Eagle Academy isn’t worth paying attention to. Look over there, they’re from the Dark Moon Academy!”
“Wow, they’re all beauties!”
The whispers faded.
Zou Gen, Wang Xinggu, and the others looked embarrassed.
Anyone who heard such contempt for their school would not feel good.
However, what the other party said was the truth.
They had indeed lost last year. There was no way to refute it.
“Don’t mind their trash talk.”
Li Peiliang comforted.
“The competition ultimately depends on strength. As long as we achieve good results in the competition, they will naturally feel ashamed of what they said.”
As soon as he said this, the fourth-year students were immediately energized.
“Yes, Teacher is right.”
“If we meet them in the competition, we’ll definitely teach them a lesson.”
“Let’s see if they can still be so arrogant when the time comes.”
Ye Fan curiously asked, “Which academy are those people from?”
Shen Yi replied, “They’re from the Red Snake Academy.”
Ye Fan suddenly understood.
No wonder even the West Eagle Academy was not taken seriously by those people.
