From Fish to Dragon 122 The Second Round

Monster Haven's team consisted of four females and one male student on all four stages. It was clear that there was a larger ratio of female breeders compared to male breeders.

As the monsters were summoned. New Era's team mainly composed of the metal and earth element with a balanced team of both offense and support.

As for Monster Haven, all five monsters were barely over Level 25, however, all five monsters were of the Epic grade!

It seemed like this year's breeders were more talented than the previous years. Only the fourth year class had one Epic grade monster, while the remaining were all Rare grade. Not only did they have higher grades, but the species and types of monsters they had were also more unique than the other teams'.

Unfortunately, no humanoid monster was seen from either team. Wang Tao suddenly recalled a memory that popped up in his mind. Tang Yaling who had been their teammate last year had gone to Heaven's Gate which meant that she was here too.

He looked around for a bit and noticed her sitting towards the very back of her group. As he looked at her, Tang Yaling stared back at him making their eyes meet.

Back onto the stage, just by looking at the difference in grades, it was even easier to tell that the Monster Haven team would win compared to the battle between Black Cloud and Dixuan.

Just as the two brothers predicted, Monster Haven's team made short work of New Era, winning 4-1, claiming their position at fifth place.

Now that fifth and sixth place were determined. Finally, the battle between Nine Peaks and the Battle Temple would begin.

Ye Qin's team got up and appeared on the stage without needing to walk down. Ye Qin had used the Yinglong's power to teleport all five of them down the field. He had now exposed that his monster controls the Space element to all the academies.

"Hoh, a Space element, the kid will do good things." the headmaster of the War God Academy spoke.

"Hah, you haven't seen anything yet." Nine Peak's headmaster replied.

"Oh? Then I will look forward to the performance of your kids, I heard three of them were invited to my place last year but rejected. Let's see how they do." the War God headmaster said.

"Anyone want to make bets? It'll be 1:100." the headmaster then said between the other headmasters.

"1:100? Count me in!" the headmaster of Black Cloud university who had placed tenth again who was sullen suddenly lit up with a burning will.

"Me too!"

"Same here!"

Suddenly, the headmaster's space became rowdy as they all started betting amongst themselves.

**************

The students of the Battle Temple came up the stage. In front of them, all five men from the opposing side were bald.

"..."

"Are you guys an actual temple now? Or are you cosplaying a certain hero for fun?" Wang Tao couldn't help but remark.

The five 'monks' of the other team didn't reply. Instead, a visible vein popped and clearly showed their anger on their foreheads, while their eyes looked as though they were on fire.

The five of them summoned all their monsters at the same time.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Red! Red! Gold! Black! Silver!

Seeing the lineup before them, the ten academies were all shocked. The first-year team all consisted of five humanoid monsters! Not only that, but each of them was also similar monsters with the same styles of battle.

"Hahahaha! Do you see this? They are known as the Five Demon Monks, I personally came to get them deep within a mountain of the Abandoned Lands." the headmaster of the Battle Temple laughed.

"Humans living in the Abandoned Lands? If the five of them are here, then that must mean there is a master and an entire temple of them right?" another headmaster asked.

"That's for you to find out."

Back on the stage, Ye Qin's group was quite surprised. For an entire team to have all humanoid which is amongst the rarest of all monsters to appear at once is legendary. In fact, they are probably the only team with such a lineup today.

Wang Tao couldn't help but to wonder if Jia Yazhu and their last teammate is strong enough to be able to hold their own against this lineup. If they couldn't, it would pretty much be a three on five battle, putting them at a great disadvantage if they didn't use their full strength.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Jia Yazhu's Knight of Divinity arrived on the field as its level seemed to have gone up to 33, while their mysterious dormmate's monster was a humanoid just as they were told.

Yang Chen's monster was summoned as well. It seemed like the Super Soldier became stronger than in the past. It was now level 35 but seemed to boast much more potential than the King of Darkness.

The crowd other students watching too were surprised, three more humanoid monsters had appeared today in the first year stages. Apart from the first year and the fourth year stage with the student council, the other three years didn't attract much attention.
