From Fish to Dragon Chapter 42

For the next few days, all students were to rest and have free time until the single battles begun the following week . The top 10 trainers of the group battles were able to sit out on the battles since it would be unfair for the others who participated

Ye Qin's trio which included Sun Zan naturally sat out to watch the battles from afar . Many of those who had been crushed by them fought hard against their peers to fight for recommendations into decent academies though those battles paled in comparison to the previous battles by far

Since Chen Jingyi's monster recovered during the few days, Wang Tao got up from his seat and walked over to her . "May we have a battle later? I want to see how I fair against you . " he asked her

Chen Jingyi didn't reply but nodded her head after pausing for a few seconds . After gaining her approval, Wang Tao went to speak to a government official of the Ministry and asked for permission to duel against Chen Jingyi later on

AdvertisementAfter gaining their approval, Wang Tao went to sit down as the matches continued . The matches seemed to last forever as Wang Tao yawned throughout the entire day . Each and every match throughout the day took over 20 minutes due to how small the difference in strength is between the monsters and only those with the Uncommon grade finished faster than the ones with Commons . Though the battles between Uncommon grades took even longer than the Common grade battles . Once it was finally his turn to battle, the government official whispered into the ears of the referee before saying into the mic

"That's the end of the first day of single matches, however, do not leave yet . Another match will be held in just a few minutes . " he said

"What? Another match?" someone said as he yawned slowly

"Arg we can't go yet?"

Seeing their reactions, the referee said "Now, now, this last match will be an exciting one between Wang Tao and Chen Jingyi!"

"What? Weren't the top 10 supposed to be sitting out?" that same student who shouted everytime during the battles the week before said

"You idiot! They are allowed to battle each other, just not participate when the rest of us are . "

"Oh…"

"Were you born with a low IQ or something? You make comments on everything!"

Some students who had already got up from their seats instantly sat back down onto their seats as if they were glued to it . Wang Tao and Chen Jingyi then walked down to the field and stood on opposite sides as they faced each other

"Battle of the top 10 between Wang Tao and Chen Jingyi begin!" the referee said into his mic

Woosh* Woosh*

Instantly, with a flash of gold and blue light, Wang Tao's Blackgold Python Tiger was summoned out in full fighting force . On the other side, a dark pink and slightly silver light flashed at the same time with Chen Jingyi's demon in its transformed state

Woosh*

Wang Tao made the first move as his Blackgold Python Tiger lifted up its front right paw and slammed it down into the ground as a thin layer of golden ice slowly thickened as it enveloped the entire stadium causing even those in the crowd spectating to feel the chill

Since he had no real way of dealing with her space element, Wang Tao could only do his best to give himself a better chance against her extremely rare element . Chen Jingyi's Demon Marshal moved into the void as if the ice didn't affect it as it disappeared from the stage

When it appeared again behind the Blackgold Python Tiger, Wang Tao anticipated this as large spears of ice pierced into the sky behind it . The Demon Marshal dodged by entering the void once again then appeared behind it once again

This time, Wang Tao surrounded himself with ice from all directions creating a dome of golden ice that protected him from all attacks . Within his ice dome, Wang Tao's Blackgold Python Tiger could see everything that happened outside the dome whilst no one else could peer inside

The demon smashed its claws against the dome which cracked with each hit but at the same time, the ice dome regenerated just as fast as the attacks
