Chapter 134: Rules

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Looking at the list of the other three academies, Zhang Xuan really couldn’t bear to continue reading.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to look, but he really couldn’t bear to.

These three academies were all above the Azure Dragon Institute.

There was no room for comparison at all.

Wanting to look at a list and find a way to deal with the academies was simply a joke.

No matter what, there were no third-transition class advancement players, and none of them had an epic-level profession.

The difference in existence and level couldn’t be resolved with any tactical arrangements.

Especially Liu Tangshan and Jiang Lingyue, who hadn’t even reached level 25.

Even if they were quite strong and could fight with the class advancement players of a rare profession, what about an epic profession?

The result was obvious.

“I don’t think there’s a need to arrange anything.”

“Let’s just treat it as a duel to increase our combat experience.”

Zhang Xuan put down the list and started acting casually.

He felt like he had boarded a stolen boat. In such a situation, there was no chance of winning at all.

Upon hearing Zhang Xuan’s words, Gu Shanshan and the rest were helpless.

Of course, they could think of this outcome, but if they gave up just like that, the Azure Dragon Institute would be in trouble.

“Dean Dai said that as long as we can get into the top three and not be at the bottom, the academy’s resources will lean toward us in the future. He can even guarantee that he’ll provide us with technical books, job change books, and so on.”

“This item is very expensive and hard to get. It’s impossible for us to get it alone.”

“Why don’t we take a gamble?” said Liu Tangshan.

Even though his family background was decent, it wasn’t easy to get the items that the advancement players needed.

This was indeed an opportunity for them.

Looking at Liu Tangshan and the rest, he recalled what Dean Dai had promised him.

Zhang Xuan also looked helpless.

What’s going on?

Originally, he wanted to farm dungeons and level up to become strong enough to protect his family before talking about anything else. Now that his strength hadn’t increased, he had to take a risk.

This was really not Zhang Xuan’s style.

Even though no one would die in the academy’s ranking competition and there were strict rules to restrict it, no matter what, the difficulty level wasn’t lower than the next dungeon in Hard Mode.

Additionally, it was even more troublesome to deal with class advancement players with multiple skills.

“Forget it.”

“It’s all because we’re from the Azure Dragon Academy. I don’t want my sister to come back and realize that the academy is gone.”

Zhang Xuan sighed helplessly.

His younger sister, Zhang Anya, was an exchange student, and the Azure Dragon Institute was in charge of the specifics, so it was the same for her contact with the other side.

Even Zhang Xuan himself couldn’t directly contact her.

Anyway, there was no way out now. They had to participate in the academy’s ranking competition, no matter if they wanted to think of tactics or not.

Since this was so, Zhang Xuan could only choose to accept it.

“Tell me about the academy’s ranking first.”

“How exactly do we do it? If it’s a team battle, we might even be short of people.”

“There’s no way at all, right?”

If the competition was a group battle, a five-man team was simply not enough for them.

Hearing Zhang Xuan relent, Gu Shanshan hurriedly introduced him. “I asked my previous Senior Sisters and Seniors about this competition.”

“The rules change every season.”

“And this time, I heard that Lord Yun Shen personally customized the rules. He said that no matter what profession it is, the advancement players should have a certain combat strength.”

“Therefore, it’s most likely a personal battle, so this is actually a little chance for us.”

Once Gu Shanshan said this, Zhang Xuan instantly understood what she meant.

When one fought alone, they naturally had to rely on themselves.

Among the few of them, there was no doubt that even Gu Shanshan would be disadvantaged.

If they met with an epic-level class advancement player, they would be at a disadvantage even if they were of the same cultivation level, let alone when the students from the other three academies had a higher overall cultivation level.

Under such circumstances, the Azure Dragon Academy’s individual battles naturally depended on Zhang Xuan.

Liu Tangshan was a martial artist, and Jiang Lingyue was an elementalist. Even though they weren’t bad, the difference in their cultivation levels was too big, and they couldn’t handle it at all.

If they were lucky, they might be able to deal with one or two enemies, but if they were unlucky, they wouldn’t be able to last even a second.

“This also means that the chances of a solo battle are very high. However, the abilities of the other three academies can’t be underestimated.”

“It won’t be easy to deal with it.”

Zhang Xuan had roughly guessed it.

However, facing the elites of the three academies, he didn’t have much confidence in winning.

After all, Zhang Xuan had never seen an epic-level or legendary-level profession.

“Who cares? Anyway, there are rules. We’ll just do our best. As for the outcome, it’s up to fate.”

Liu Tangshan spread his hands. They indeed only had such a simple and

IrreversiD1e way.

He could only choose to do this.

“Alright, since it’s so simple, there’s nothing much to discuss. What we need to guard against is the strong warriors from the other academies. If we meet them, we’ll have some understanding.”

“Know yourself and know your enemy, and you’ll win every battle. Even though we don’t have the confidence to win, it’s beneficial for us to know more.”

Hearing Zhang Xuan’s words, Gu Shanshan immediately started introducing.

“In Black Tortoise Academy, there are mainly two people we need to pay attention to.”

“Legendary class advancement player, Qin Sheng, Level 35. He’s a Night

Knight. ”

“The other is also a legendary-level professional, Wang Bing, Level 36. He’s a Weeping Angel. ”

“These two people are very strong. Even amongst the third-transition class advancement players, they’re one of the top few.”

Hearing this, Zhang Xuan understood a little.

He had seen Qin Sheng before, but he didn’t expect a legendary-level professional to reach Level 35.

This ability was indeed unquestionable.

“There are also two legendary-level professionals in the Vermillion Bird

Institute, but the details aren’t enough. They’re very good at keeping it a secret. ”

“White Tiger Academy also has two, and they’re equally confidential.”

“The rest are epic-level and rare-level classes.”

After Gu Shanshan finished her sentence, they had a rough idea of the situation. Even though it was confidential, they knew that the other party had a few legendary-level professionals.

However, it was better for Zhang Xuan not to know about such a situation.

After all, the difference was too great.

There were only four of them at the Azure Dragon Institute’s side.

Out of the three rare professions, Liu Tangshan’s was close to an epic-level one, but he didn’t reach it and was Level 22.

The difference was too great.

Even though Gu Shanshan was Level 28, there was still a difference between rare professions.

The remaining one was Zhang Xuan’s only hidden class.

No matter how one looked at it, it wasn’t feasible when compared to the other academies..
