Chapter 4 Lava Ghost Witch

The four Lava Ghost Witch Star Beads cost Xia Yan a total of 498,000 Ocean Coins.

After Jiang Xiao found out, he kept the amount in mind, thinking that he would definitely repay it in the future.

Jiang Xiao had been in this world for more than half a year.

Honestly, these past six months have been a time of struggle for Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao went from having nothing to being heavily in debt, and he felt extremely fulfilled.

The two elementary school students were eventually taken back by Han Jiangxue. Compared to other teams who were practicing hard to prepare for the college entrance examination, Jiang Xiao's team had to participate in an important competition before the exam – the National High School League.

Before Jiang Xiao was called out by Xia Yan, the information he was studying was precisely the participating teams of this year's National High School League.

A total of 200 teams participated, with Beijiang Province having 2 teams, while the capital city alone had as many as 13 teams...

The capital had the most participating teams in China, followed closely by the magic city, with a total of 11 high school teams participating in the competition.

In the relatively backward areas of Northeast, Southwest, and Northwest China, the number of participating teams was approximately 2-3.

The province with the fewest participating teams in this session was Gan Province, with only one team.

Honestly, taking Beijiang Province as an example, it was possible to find teams with similar strength levels as Xin Danxi No. 11 High School, but the country only gives your province two places to participate, so what can you do?

But no matter the number of teams, the quality of the teams selected by each province and region was top-notch.

Just like the numbers Jiang Xiao was muttering on the paper earlier: 27, 28, 25, 26...

What was he reciting? The number of Star Slots of the participating students.

Out of the 800 participating players from 200 teams, it was really hard to find participating players with less than 25 Star Slots.

Of course, there were definitely some, like the participating player with 24 Star Slots before, and Jiang Xiao's comment on him was: How did you sneak in?

In China's highest-level event, these 800 young talents represented the highest level of high school students in China in 2016.

The participating student information showed that there were a total of 80 participating students who had reached the peak of the Nebula Realm, accounting for one-tenth of the total number of participants.

The number of students in the later and middle stages of the Nebula Realm was roughly the same, representing the overall level of this year's students.

The number of early Nebula Realm students was also around 80. It is worth mentioning that these students who were able to participate in the early Nebula Realm all had a "special skill."

Among this group of participating students in the early Nebula Realm, a considerable number were auxiliary medical-type awakeners.

This was a very interesting phenomenon, which can be summarized in one sentence: You have to bring them, even if you don't want to!

There were too many Shield Warriors, Melee fighters, and magic-type fighters, and the competition was extremely fierce.

What? You are a combat-type awakener? Your Star Power level is not high? Your Star Techniques are not strong? Not strong enough? Then get out of here! Replace them with more powerful students!

What? You are a medical-type awakener? Your Star Power level is not high, your Star Techniques are not strong? Not strong enough? Then you just... stay put, study hard, and watch carefully! Work hard with the older brothers and sisters on the team!

Stay steady, you can do it!

...

Han Jiangxue's thirty Star Slots had become a nationwide sensation, and a few days ago, another piece of news shook China, becoming the center of attention for a time.

This news came from South Guangdong Province in China.

This province was a bit magical. A great god with 30 Star Slots appeared more than a decade ago, and this year, a student who was a Galaxy Realm awakener emerged!

Unprecedented, and it will be difficult to have anyone come after! (Han Jiangxue: Heh.)

This person had a beautiful name, Yuan Qinghua.

She was a very powerful agility fighter, you could even classify her as an "assassin."

This girl's Weibo was also exploded, with a bunch of people every day...

Before, Yuan Qinghua was already somewhat famous in South Guangdong Province. Due to her fighting style, she was given the nickname "Old Yin Bi" (schemer) by her rivals from surrounding schools.

The students in the class gave her a more friendly nickname: Little Yin Flower, Timid Flower, Only Attacks When You Don't Expect It Flower...

Such an insidious assassin, recognized by both allies and enemies, was cheerful and especially sunny when not fighting, leading people to think that she had multiple personalities.

In the world's perception, she was originally a member of the Nebula Realm peak, and her personal strength was not even ranked first in the South Guangdong Provincial team, at most a member of the first tier.

But just three days ago, in a private training session, a student sneaked into the training ground and secretly filmed a short video of the team's training.

As a result, this student filmed Yuan Qinghua's brilliant fist and sword Star Chart. At some point, the 8 Star Slots that should have lit up had now lit up 16!

Next, this short video and this smiling girl completely detonated the entire China.

Like a whirlwind, she directly suppressed Han Jiangxue.

Han Jiangxue's 30 Star Slots were a talent, given by her parents.

And Yuan Qinghua reaching the Galaxy Realm at the age of 18 was not just a matter of talent.

The student who shot the video was given the name "traitor" by South Guangdong Province and was directly sprayed into shutting himself off. This may have been a good opportunity for the South Guangdong Provincial high school team to win the championship, but it was ruined by a stupid student.

Yuan Qinghua, who should have been a secret weapon, was now completely exposed to everyone.

It could be said that everything about her, except for her clothes, was thoroughly exposed by the media.

In any case, the National High School League was completely hyped up, and the Chinese people couldn't wait.

Jiang Xiao was both expectant and nervous. May 5th was the day of the National High School League competition.

It was already April 20th, and until now, no one knew where the competition venue was. The organizers were particularly strict in blocking the news.

Whenever it was a critical moment, the guide would always arrive in time.

The Golden Guide may be late, but he will never be absent.

Just as the four-person team was nesting in the training hall, studying tactics diligently with trepidation, Hai Tianqing walked in with a smile.

Whenever he saw his crescent-shaped eyes, Jiang Xiao's heart was particularly at ease.

Xia Yan played with the giant blade in her hand and looked at Hai Tianqing: "Smiling so happily?"

Hai Tianqing pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with a smile: "This time I will lead the team and accompany you to Chang'an."

Xia Yan was stunned for a moment: "The National High School League is held in Chang'an City!?"

Hai Tianqing nodded with a smile: "Yes, Chang'an! The most central part of China, what do you have to say about this?"

Xia Yan's beautiful eyes sparkled: "Huimin Street! Lamb Paomo! Roujiamo! Suanmeitang You Po Mian grilled meat Bingfeng!"

Jiang Xiao swallowed and asked, "What is Bingfeng?"

Xia Yan looked at Jiang Xiao with disgust and said, "It's like our Little Bee and Dabaili here."

Jiang Xiao looked at Xia Yan in a daze. Isn't this girl born in '98? How does she know about Dabaili, this old soda?

In addition, I've traveled north and south for so many years, and I was actually educated by a little girl?

The old saying is right,

Foodies are ageless.

Hai Tianqing's mouth twitched awkwardly and said, "Is that what you wanted to say?"

Han Jiangxue on the side opened her mouth and said: "If we gather in Chang'an City, then the assessment location will be the Other Dimension Space around Chang'an. Has the official announced what Other Dimension Space it is?"

Finally, someone reliable.

Hai Tianqing shook his head and said: "No, the official will announce it 2-3 days before the competition."

Han Jiangxue nodded. This has been the case for national competitions over the years. The official always waits until the last two days to announce the assessment location.

"So, we have a few days to guess." Hai Tianqing said with a smile, "There are many Other Dimension Spaces around Chang'an, but there are not many distinctive Other Dimension Spaces."

Jiang Xiao's eyes lit up and said, "Ancient Imperial Mausoleum*Ancient Martial Arts Legion?"

Jiang Xiao opened his mouth and said a particularly famous Other Dimension Space.

This is equivalent to, when someone asks you about the special animals of China, you blurt out giant panda.

Li Weiyi's expression was solemn, and he analyzed from the side: "The Ancient Imperial Mausoleum is indeed the most distinctive Other Dimension Space in Chang'an, and it is unique in the world. But the Other Dimension creatures inside are too strong?"

Han Jiangxue frowned and said: "It is hell for students in the Nebula Realm. Silver-level creatures are equipped with weapons and live in groups. Some gold-level creatures appear in small teams."

Li Weiyi agreed: "We are just a team, but they are a real army. It's too dangerous there. I don't think the assessment location is in the Ancient Martial Arts Imperial Mausoleum."

Hai Tianqing said: "In the next few days, I will accompany you to analyze the Other Dimension Space information around Chang'an City in detail. For different spaces and different creatures, I will formulate corresponding combat plans for you. There are many types of spaces and many types of creatures around Chang'an, and we also have many tactics. You must be mentally prepared."

Hai Tianqing clapped his hands, concentrating the four people's attention on himself, and he said with a smile: "Our training camp starts tomorrow, don't say you're tired~"

"Of course." Everyone nodded in agreement, which made Hai Tianqing very gratified. Even Li Weiyi, who had already successfully landed, was extremely enthusiastic.

After sending Hai Tianqing away, the four-person team cleaned up the training room, and the afternoon's practical course ended here.

Li Weiyi still went to spend time with Li Qingmei in their world.

Taking advantage of the opportunity for Han Jiangxue to wash her hands, Xia Yan made a special request to Jiang Xiao.

Xia Yan asked softly: "Little Leather, can you show me your Star Chart?"

Jiang Xiao raised his eyebrows: "What?"

Xia Yan scratched her chestnut short hair and said, "I feel annoyed when I hear about the Ancient Imperial Mausoleum, I need some confidence."

"Want confidence? You're so strong, do you still need to find confidence from me?" Although he said so, Jiang Xiao still looked around, and in the deserted training room, Jiang Xiao secretly lit up his Star Chart.

"Wow..." For a moment, Xia Yan's eyes sparkled.

The first half of the Big Dipper's nine stars had been lit up, and except for the first Star Slot being Silver, the rest were all a brilliant gold!

Xia Yan stretched out her white and slender fingers and gently tapped on the Big Dipper Star Chart that was looming in front of Jiang Xiao, saying: "Silver Blessing and Silver Bait."

Xia Yan moved her fingers, tapping on the bright Star Slots one by one, counting them like treasures: "Golden Green Glow, Golden Endurance, Golden Clock Bell, Golden Endorsement, Golden Love, Golden Dawn, Golden Resentment, Golden Reverse Current Light, Golden Silent Voice."

Xia Yan licked her lips. Her expression was even more wonderful than when she mentioned Lamb Paomo just now. She looked like she had seen a delicious delicacy, and her excitement was beyond words.

"Okay?" Jiang Xiao was still a little uncomfortable and quietly retracted his Star Chart.

Xia Yan reluctantly withdrew her gaze and said, "In the future, whenever I don't have high fighting spirit, you can light up your Star Chart and let me count it again."

Jiang Xiao: "......"
