Chapter 53 p1:
“Beauties, am I late?”
Under the watchful eyes of countless viewers, the golden-haired girl with buns and starry eyes peeked in after opening the door to the training room. Seeing Lian Xing’s appearance in the livestream, both Xiao Kui and Forever 16 were excited.
For Forever 16, the fact that Strongest Moonlight Rabbit was appearing in this setting meant that the Youlan Academy higher-ups were fully aware of her strength and would definitely let her participate in the Academy League, where she would ultimately claim a spot among the Ten Greats!!!
In their previous instance run, Forever 16’s contribution had been less than 1%, and she had been deemed afk, so she hadn’t appeared on the leaderboard with Strongest Moonlight Rabbit. But even if she had, she would never reveal Strongest Moonlight Rabbit’s lineup.
After all, this was Youlan Academy’s most promising team in years!!!
Meanwhile, Xiao Kui was even more excited. She hadn’t expected to be so lucky as to witness Strongest Moonlight Rabbit’s first official match. Once they saw her lineup, the viewers would finally understand her obsession, right?
The truth would soon be revealed!!!
“…”
“…”
“Not late, not late. The match starts in three minutes~~~” Chi Yan greeted Lian Xing with an eager smile, making the Dean’s jaw drop. She had never seen her daughter act like this. Even with their previous captain, Qi Dong, Chi Yan had always maintained a defiant attitude.
As for this golden-haired girl with buns…
Lian Xing, the 11th-ranked Supernova, whose main battle pet beast was the Mid-Tier Moonlight Drive?
As a highly ranked freshman with great potential, the Dean naturally remembered Lian Xing.
But…a mere Moonlight Drive…was this the guaranteed win Chi Yan had been talking about!?
Ignoring the Dean’s skeptical expression, Chi Yan whispered to Lian Xing, “Lian Xing, as we agreed online, five High-Tier crystals if you win this match!!!”
“Don’t worry, beautiful, we can’t lose~~~”
Hearing this, Lian Xing chuckled nonchalantly.
Meanwhile, seeing the golden-haired girl enter the Youlan Academy training room, the chat in the Youlan Academy livestream exploded.
“Ah, the reinforcement is actually Lian Xing-sama! I didn’t waste my time watching this livestream. And Lian Xing-sama’s stockings today…the perfect transparency…I’m dying!!”
“I changed my home Wi-Fi name to (Is Lian Xing my wife?) and the password to yesyesyes. Now the entire dorm building is connected to my Wi-Fi.”
“My love for Lian Xing…it’s indescribable. Wherever she goes, all problems seem to vanish. Even my skirt…unbuttoned itself…”
“Lian Xing, I went to buy a roujiamo(meat sandwich) and asked the vendor to add extra spice. But I dropped it on the ground and it got covered in mud. I cried. So this is what…spicy bread likes mud…?”
“…”
“…”
“Lian Xing, is that Strongest Moonlight Rabbit’s real name? Is she famous at Youlan Academy?” The White Maple Academy fans, brought in by Xiao Kui, were confused, seeing the local Youlan Academy fans going wild.
If Lian Xing was so famous, wouldn’t the Youlan Academy students already know her pet beast lineup?
Xiao Kui must have been imagining things!!!
However, what they didn’t know was that Lian Xing wasn’t famous for her strength…
She was simply famous for constantly walking around the academy in stockings, refusing to share the “wealth”…, becoming the ultimate fantasy for countless students.
Under the watchful eyes of the viewers, Lian Xing casually sat down at an outdated battle device, waving at her new teammates. Ye Zhuzhi, the girl in the slitted cheongsam, and the other two Mid-Tier Beast Tamers, who were there to fill the roster, nodded awkwardly.
Their captain had been traumatized by Lian Xing just a few days ago…
And now, they had to fight alongside the culprit…it was a strange and exciting feeling~~~
“What’s going on? Is she really reliable?”
“Are you sure you’re not joking?” As the match was about to start, ignoring the Dean’s skeptical gaze, Chi Yan quickly sat down at her battle station.
The livestream camera, as if understanding the viewers’ desires, gave Lian Xing’s stocking-clad legs a slow-motion close-up. The chat slowed down considerably, as if everyone was busy typing with one hand, typos and missing words appearing everywhere.
Even those who had previously mocked Lian Xing’s fans began to understand…
Those slender legs, their perfect curves and soft, dazzlingly white flesh…it was a gift from the heavens!!!
A true feast for the eyes!!
Finally, under everyone’s admiring gaze, the countdown ended, and five game modes appeared on the screens.
[Team Melee (Single Pet)]
[Team Melee (Unlimited)]
[Round-Robin Duel (Single Pet)]
[Capture the Flag (Single Pet)]
[Instance Speedrun (Unlimited)]
[Youlan Academy team, please ban a mode first]
“Lian Xing, what do you think?”
“Whatever, I’m fine with anything~~~” Facing Chi Yan’s nervous question, Lian Xing remained nonchalant, hugging her knees as she sat in her chair, looking like a small, cute lop-eared rabbit.
Seeing Lian Xing’s relaxed attitude, Chi Yan’s anxiety eased. Even the powerful Starlight Academy had been crushed by Lian Xing, unable to resist. Against Qingliu Academy, which was on par with Youlan Academy…how could Lian Xing possibly lose!?
However, considering the Moon-Embracing Jade Hammer’s long-range throwing abilities, Chi Yan banned Round-Robin Duel to prevent it from being countered by close-combat pet beasts.
Three seconds later, the opposing Qingliu Academy team immediately banned Team Melee (Unlimited). Clearly, they hadn’t trained multiple pet beasts, focusing instead on their main ones.
Then, Chi Yan banned Instance Speedrun. After all, the opponents were a well-coordinated team that had likely cleared many instances together, while they had no synergy with Lian Xing, increasing the risk of failure.
However, what Chi Yan didn’t know was that she had just given up a guaranteed victory.
But for Lian Xing, it didn’t matter which mode they chose…
Under the livestream camera, Lian Xing maintained a calm smile, the twinkling stars in her eyes somehow both charming and…lewd.
Finally, after two minutes of contemplation, Qingliu Academy banned Team Melee (Single Pet).
The game mode was decided.
[Capture the Flag (Single Pet)]
Capture the Flag was similar to Team Melee but with more randomness and…potential for shenanigans. A flag would randomly spawn on the map, and whoever captured it would have their location revealed to the opposing team. Since the Capture the Flag maps were even larger than the 100-Pet Battle Royale maps, it was rare for all ten players to clash in a 5v5 battle. Most encounters were asymmetrical, with one side having a numerical advantage.
The game had a 30-minute time limit. Whichever team held the flag at the end would win.
Eliminating the entire opposing team also counted as a victory.
Incidentally, there were many troll strategies in Capture the Flag, such as one team capturing the flag and then giving it to a speed-type Biological Species pet beast, which would then run around the map until the end of the match, making the opponents chase them until they vomited blood.
So, Capture the Flag was very suitable for pet beasts with high mobility.
“Lian Xing, are…are you sure about this?” Chi Yan asked nervously. She had assumed the opponents would choose Team Melee.
They had no experience with the less popular Capture the Flag mode.
And Lian Xing didn’t have any highly mobile pet beasts, right?
“No problem, I’m fine with anything~~~” Lian Xing waved her hand dismissively, looking more like she was on a picnic than in a competition.
Capture the Flag…
She couldn’t remember the last time she had played this mode. Perhaps during the first year of Pet Beast Evolution Battle’s release? In the early days of the game, players still followed the rules, capturing the flag and playing strategically.
But after Commander-Tier pet beasts became more common, Capture the Flag devolved into chaos. Players would simply flatten the entire map, turning it into a Team Melee.
Soon after, the officials removed this redundant mode.
[Capture the Flag (Single Pet)]
[Randomly generating map…]
[Map selected: Gentle Breeze Island]
[Countdown: 1 minute. Please select your pet beasts]
Without hesitation, Chi Yan and the others chose their main battle pet beasts. At the student level, most Beast Tamers didn’t have the luxury of choosing different lineups for different modes. They simply deployed their strongest pet beast.
A minute later, the selected pet beasts were registered. However, at that moment, seeing the opposing team’s lineup, Xiao Kui, who had been eagerly waiting for Lian Xing’s lineup to be revealed, spat out her drink in surprise. Not only her, but almost all the viewers watching the livestream were stunned.
