In the audience seats.

A man wearing a baseball cap, his face concealed in the shadow of the cap's brim, quietly watched the magnificent lineup of those escorting the Starstones on the close-up camera on the big screen.

The moment the alloy box was opened, and four pieces of Star stone revealed their splendid hues, the entire venue erupted in deafening cheers.

The man in the baseball cap sat quietly in his seat, looking out of place amongst the fervent audience who were standing and waving their arms excitedly.

He remained still until the four pieces of Starstone were completely absorbed by the four contestants who made it this far. He did not make a move.

Only when the depleted Starstones returned to the alloy box and he saw Xu Qingmo and the thirteen Spirit Executors visibly sigh in relief, did his expression show some liveliness.

A fleeting look of mockery crossed his face. The man stood up, not at all concerned about the contestant draw that was going to take place after the absorption of the Starstones, and he walked straight towards the exit of the arena.

“Click!”

I'm not far from Two-star!

Upon absorbing the Starstone again, Spicy's eyes glittered with excitement.

It could feel a vigorous power revolving within its body, like it was about to cross a threshold and enter a whole new level.

“Indeed, not far off.” Qin Lang, looking at the glowing star beside Spicy and comparing to when Dan Bao advanced to Two-star, nodded.

With another one or two Starstones, Spicy could also be promoted to Two-star.

“Grrrr~”

That's great!

Dan Bao, content, rubbed against Spicy, a look of anticipation on its face.

What would be Spicy's second combat skill after it was promoted to Two-star?

“The four advancing contestants have already received their respective rewards. With the competition approaching its end, a thrilling segment is about to begin!”

The host's words brought the thoughts of Qin Lang and his two Food Spirits back to the competition.

Upon hearing this, the cheers from the audience became even more intense.

“That is…” The host's words trailed off for a moment, then suddenly increased in volume, “the draw for the ranking match to be held three days later!”

“The ranking match will have four competitions. The four contestants will be divided into two groups. First, there will be two intrgroup battles which will decide the winners and losers. Then, there will be a battle between the winners and losers to determine First Place and Third Place.”

“Now please look at the big screen!”

As the host spoke, the big screen in the venue quickly divided into four areas. The backgrounds of the two areas on the left were red, and the backgrounds of the two areas on the right were blue; each area had a rolling display of the contestants' portraits.

The four contestants showed different reactions upon seeing this scene.

Zhu Quan, the strongest contender, was as calm as still water.

After confirming that no other contestants had three-star Food Spirits in this match, he has already seen the championship trophy as his.

With his strength, he could stand out even if he participated in the provincial youth training competition. Attending the city-level competition now due to personal reasons was mere formality for him.

The other three contestants, including Qin Lang, had only one idea in their heads.

That was to absolutely not be grouped with Zhu Quan.

Perhaps it was fear manifesting itself as reality. Accompanied by a beep, the contestant's portrait in the first area on the left of the big screen came to a halt.

Zhu Quan.

“Contestant Zhu Quan is in the Red Group!” The host announced loudly, “Next, we will draw the second contestant in the Red Group. Once the two contestants in the Red Group are confirmed, the two contestants in the Blue Group will similarly be confirmed.”

“Which contestant will be facing Zhu Quan? Let us wait and see!”

In the contestant preparation area, Du Weiwei and the others were also nervously watching the big screen.

“Weiwei, what place do you think Qin Lang will ultimately get?” Qi Xiaoyu pulled Du Weiwei's arm, unable to help herself from asking.

“If nothing unexpected happens, he should end up in Fourth Place.” Du Weiwei pondered for a moment before honestly sharing her thoughts, “Unlike the Selection Battle, the Ranking Match tests the strength of all Food Spirits and not just one Food Spirit.”

“Even Hao Yifan, who scored closest to Qin Lang in the Selection Battle, has two two-star Food Spirits. But Qin Lang's second Food Spirit has not yet reached two-star, which puts him at a disadvantage.”

“I was stopped at Fourth Place back then, because I didn't have a second Food Spirit.”

“I don't agree with your opinion.” Zhao Chen crossed his arms at his chest.

He always considered Qin Lang as his rival. At this moment, ironically, he had the highest expectations for Qin Lang.

“Aside from Zhu Quan, who has a three-star Food Spirit, I believe Qin Lang has a way to handle the other two contestants. So 1 think he can get Second Place.” “Of course, the prerequisite is that he won't be in the same…umph!”

Zhao Chen's speech was cut short when Qi Xiaoyu covered his mouth.

“Jinx!”

Qi Xiaoyu looked in exasperation at the big screen in the center of the venue and couldn't help but complain.

While the three of them were speaking, the second contestant in the Red Group on the big screen was locked.

It was unmistakably Qin Lang.

Zhao Chen rubbed his head, his face showing a rare embarrassed look.

Qi Xiaoyu and Du Weiwei exchanged glances and then both deeply sighed.

In the arena, as Zhu Quan's teammate was confirmed, Hao Yifan and Xia Yun beside him both breathed sighs of relief. They then looked at each other, sparks seemed to fly through the air between them.

After Qin Lang and Zhu Quan's portraits were locked, their portraits were also locked in place.

They will be the Blue Group, engaging in their own intrgroup competition.

Qin Lang, on the other hand, couldn't help turning his head to look at Zhu Quan.

A young man with purple hair, who looked a bit older than him.

In the previous two Selection Battles, Zhu Quan had only shown one three-star Food Spirits.

Judging from only two points lighting up on his Seven Star Map, it could be inferred that Zhu Quan's other Food Spirit is likely a two-star Food Spirit.

In contrast, Qin Lang only has one two-star Food Spirit and one one-star Food Spirit.

In the battle three days later, the chances of victory seem slim …

As if sensing Qin Lang's gaze, Zhu Quan turned to look at Qin Lang, then nodded calmly.

“Contestants Zhu Quan and Qin Lang will be the Red Group in the Ranking Match, and will have their intrgroup competition first in three days!” “Contestants Hao Yifan and Xia Yun will be the Blue Group in the Ranking Match and will compete after the Red Group!”

“Let's look forward to the wonderful performances these four contestants will bring us!”

“The grouping draw for the Ranking Match is over!”

“I hereby announce, the Bai Lu Mountain City Youth Training Competition

First Round Selection Battle has ended!”

“See you all in three days!”

With the host's impassioned closing remarks, the two-day Selection Battle drew to its conclusion.

Returning to the contestant preparation area, Qin Lang was quickly surrounded by Du Weiwei and the others.

“Don't worry, Qin Lang, it's all about participation!” Qi Xiaoyu patted Qin Lang's shoulder, then glared at Zhao Chen, “It's all this jinx's fault!”

Looking at the three of them, their faces full of anxiety, Qin Lang felt a warm feeling in his heart.

“No matter who the opponent is, i will go all out.”
