Chapter 212 - Fallen Shadow Witch! Gold Quality Star Bead!

Chapter 212: Fallen Shadow Witch! Gold Quality Star Bead!

Beep! Beep! The referee blew the whistle and waved his flag before announcing, “The winner is Jiangbin High School!”

“Wow! Scattering flowers~”

“Oh yeah~”

“They’ve won, they’ve won! Hahahaha!”

“We’re the champions!”

Under Su Rou’s lead, a huge uproar ensued in the live-stream.

There was thunderous applause in the Red Sun Stadium, and the spectators applauded to cheer the students on.

–

Victory, Skill Points +5

Provincial High School League Champions, Skill Points +10

Skill Points: 45

–

There was good news in the internal Star Map. Jiang Xiao was thrilled.

He initially still had some Skill Points reserved. If he were to really go against Wu Haoyang, he would very likely use his Skill Points to upgrade his “Xia Family Swordsmanship”.

However, now that he had won, he didn’t use any Skill Points to upgrade it. He even obtained 15 Skill Points, which was to his pleasure.

The next competition which would allow him to earn bonus points would be in the next semester. Jiang Xiao had enough time to practice his swordsmanship techniques. If he could upgrade the level of his technique on his own, wouldn’t he be able to save his Skill Points?

He had to employ limited resources where they were needed most!

Jiang Xiao and Xia Yan left the arena together merrily and waved at the spectators happily. The team of four then finally reunited at the stadium tunnel.

“Not bad,” Han Jiangxue said with a rare smile. She then gave Jiang Xiao a nod of approval.

“What about me? What about me?” Xia Yan asked as she stood next to Jiang Xiao.

Clearly, Han Jiangxue was in high spirits. She reached out and rubbed Xia Yan’s short hair lightly in an affectionate manner. “You did a good job.”

Xia Yan expressed assent and closed her eyes, seemingly enjoying the treatment.

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him and he thought, Does this woman really have a tendency to evolve into a husky?

She’s so delighted to have her head rubbed?

“Congratulations, I’m really proud of you.” Hai Tianqing leaped down from the seats. He had communicated with the staff for a long time before he was allowed to enter.

The four of them turned around and looked at the grinning Hai Tianqing.

However, Hai Tianqing said embarrassedly, “I didn’t teach you anything, but you became the champions. The school will definitely give me better treatment and increase my salary. I’ll become famous too. I’m ashamed.”

Li Weiyi comforted. “Don’t say that, Teacher Hai. You taught us to evolve between formations and battle tactics. You also worked tirelessly to accompany us to all kinds of different Dimensional Spaces. Escorted us and protected us…”

Before Li Weiyi even finished, Hai Tianqing scratched his head and said, “I’m really vexed. I’ll accept it, then.”

Li Weiyi remained silent.

The award ceremony was about to begin very soon and Jiang Xiao was looking forward to what kind of Star Beads they would receive as champions. After a particularly lengthy leadership speech, Jiang Xiao and others finally heard the teams being called onto the stage.

“Let’s invite the second runner-up of the Beijiang Provincial High School League, the team from Qicheng High School, to the stage to receive the award.”

Jiang Xiao and the rest looked over to see that Zhou Cang, whose hair was braided, walking towards the makeshift podium leisurely.

They were given three Silver Quality and one Gold Quality Star Beads. It was no surprise that the golden Star Bead was awarded to Zhou Cang.

Although Zhou Cang performed averagely against Jiang Xiao’s team, he was very outstanding in the preliminary round as well as the competition for the third place in the quarter-finals.

After taking photos with the leader of the team and the team members, the host continued, “Now, let’s invite the runner-up of the Beijiang Provincial High School League, the team from Xindan Creek High School No. 11, to the stage to receive the award.”

This time, the cheers in the stadium were louder. Obviously, the team from Xindan Creek High School No. 11 was much more popular than Qicheng High School.

However, not all members of the team from Xindan Creek High School No. 11 were present. Qian Zhuang was sent to the hospital after being slashed by Xia Yan’s giant blade. An Youyou was suffocated by Xia Yan’s naked choke and slipped into a coma. Hence, An Luming proceeded to look after her. Wu Haoyang was the only one receiving the award on stage.

However, Wu Haoyang alone was enough to make the stadium cheer enthusiastically with joy. His characteristics were extremely distinctive, and he looked like a majestic hero. Indeed, he had plenty of fans and probably even received offers from numerous colleges and universities.

With two Gold Quality and two Silver Quality Star Beads, flowers, and the trophy, Wu Haoyang made his way down the podium while everyone cheered.

Finally, it was the most exciting moment.

Jiang Xiao didn’t care for the flowers and applause. He mainly wanted to see what the reward for the champions of the Beijiang Provincial High School League would be!

Will I be given a Spatial Star Bead!?!

Jiang Xiao, distracted by his thoughts, leaped onto the podium in just two steps.

It was still snowing heavily, and although the atmosphere was very lively, the weather was indeed cold.

However, the lady assisting in the prize-giving on the stage was suffering. She was wearing a cheongsam dress that exposed her thighs amidst the freezing temperature.

Organizers, are you still human?

Seeing that she was freezing, Jiang Xiao tilted his head and looked at her trembling thighs.

Tsk tsk, the weather is so snowy.

No, the legs are so cold.

Hmm…

The team of four stood still and a middle-aged man shook hands with Jiang Xiao kindly. His benevolent and affectionate gaze seemed to make Jiang Xiao feel like he was selecting a son-in-law.

He was holding the flowers in his left hand and the medal in his right hand. What about the Star Beads? Where are the Gold Quality Star Beads?

Wow, they’re here!

Jiang Xiao saw the young lady in a cheongsam who was almost crying because of the cold. She shivered and walked over with the tray.

The leader, clad in a down jacket, grinned at Jiang Xiao and handed the small square box to him.

Jiang Xiao grabbed it smilingly, but his face stiffened.

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.

What do the organizers mean?

Have they all had enough too? Do they really want me to transform into a warrior? What the hell are these three Star Techniques?

I only have nine star slots, one of which is reserved for a Star Pet, and now there are only four left. You guys…

At this moment, the lady in the cheongsam shivering because of the cold leaned in to say a few words to the leader in charge of giving the award.

The middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes glanced at the girl with a little dissatisfaction, stepped forward, and reached for the small square box in Jiang Xiao’s hand.

Jiang Xiao was speechless.

Jiang Xiao watched as the Fallen Shadow Warrior Star Bead was handed to Li Weiyi.

“Come on, kid, this one’s for you,” said the middle-aged man, grabbing another small square box handed over by the lady and shoved it into Jiang Xiao’s hands.

Oh my god!

Star Bead of the Fallen Shadow Witch!?!

When Jiang Xiao saw the Fallen Shadow Star Bead, he began to secretly speculate in his heart. To his surprise, his reward was really a Fallen Shadow Witch Star Bead!

The Fallen Shadow creatures were very precious and strong creatures of other dimensions. They were unique creatures in the Shadow Cave.

Dimensional Spaces like the Shadow Cave only existed in the Jinmen area and Yanzhao Province.

In the Shadow Cave, the strongest creatures were the Platinum Quality Fallen Shadow Demons.

“Platinum Quality” almost defined the Shadow Cave that would never be opened to the public.

Perhaps, only the special teams of the nation like the military would be able to access that series of Star Beads.

When Dimensional Spaces like the Shadow Cave appeared, they would either be strictly guarded, developed carefully, or destroyed immediately to avoid harming the region and the people.

In such a dangerous place, it would be hard for Jiang Xiao to qualify to enter even if he had the strength and abilities to.

Just yesterday, when everyone in the team was studying the list of Star Techniques belonging to the An sisters, Jiang Xiao had been salivating about “Enmity” and “Counter-current Light”. However, he did not expect the reward to be the Fallen Shadow Witch Star Bead.

Which national institution sponsored the prizes of the Beijiang Provincial High School League?

The Beijiang Province Star Warriors Association?

Impressive.

Since the An sisters could have such precious and rare Star Beads, even a fool would be able to tell that their family was obviously wealthy and powerful.

For poor young boys like Jiang Xiao, it was an extremely fortunate thing to be able to be exposed to such Star Beads.

The An sisters had acquired the Gold Quality Enmity and the Silver Quality Counter-current Light, but not the Gold Quality Sound of Silence, a godly Star Technique.

Besides, Jiang Xiao did not care about whether he could acquire them successfully. After all, he had an internal Star Map and the success rate was 100%.

An issue surfaced.

Without a doubt, the Star Bead wouldn’t be available in large amounts.

However, the three Star Techniques were very functional, and Jiang Xiao liked them very much.

What to do?

I’m waiting. It’s urgent…
