Start With Contracting Sprites

On a large transport vehicle capable of transporting medium-sized sprites, the teacher-in-charge glanced at the students and sprites in front of him and reminded.

"An City First High isn't easy to deal with, don't be careless."

"Don't worry, Teacher."

A student, who had an Armored Elephant as his sprite, said, "The most troublesome one among them is that student named Su Hao. Indeed, he's not easy to deal with…"

"But he's only one person and he only has one sprite, after all. As long as we exchange injuries with him in a fearless way, we only need at most two or three sprites to replace that Reverie Butterfly."

The information they had on Su Hao was last updated after he emerged as the joint examination champion.

But none of them dared to underestimate him.

The principle that stated, 'one can overestimate but not underestimate' was used to estimate the battle power of that evolved Reverie Butterfly.

It should have already… obtained high entry-level battle power.

"With Su Hao, An City First High is indeed a strong opponent. We only have a 50% chance of winning."

...

An City First High, battle hall.

The battle hall was very lively today. The spectator seats were filled with students and teachers.

There weren't many Sprite stream students, only about a hundred in total. All of them came to watch the battle.

There were also students from the Cultural Department in the neighboring campus.

It wasn't just the third-year students. The first and second-year students also came.

When they heard that there was a sprite battle, under their strong requests, they were finally allowed to skip half a day's worth of lessons. After all, sprite battles were indeed rare in An City. On the public battle area of the Sprite Square, almost everyone was sitting shoulder to shoulder.

It was far inferior to the friendly match between the two schools.

The reasons used by the cultural science students were also very valid.

This was An City First High's home field. If there were only a few hundred students in the spectator seats, wouldn't that be too embarrassing?

Not only did they come, they also brought along banners for cheering.

Su Hao didn't look at the slogan on the banner because it was too childish, so he looked at the First High's cheerleaders.

Their hair fluttered in the wind, and their skirts swayed. Su Hao couldn't help but be impressed.

"In the past, why didn't I realize that there were so many attractive classmates and juniors?"

"It would be even better if it was summer now."

Among the main players.

Liu Ren and the other boys were so excited that they wanted nothing more than to go on stage and defeat everyone.

This made the girls in the team chuckle.

Stupid boys!

Couldn't they be as steady and reliable as Prince Charming Su!?

While Liu Ren and the others were excited, they also started to become nervous.

It would be so embarrassing to lose in front of so many girls.

It was very likely that they wouldn't be able to raise their heads in the coming months!

"Old Su, what should we do? Can we win? Why don't you go on stage instead!"

"Yeah, Great God Su, the school's honor is more important, we can't lose!"

Cheers kept coming from the venue.

In the atmosphere, the three weakest members of the main force didn't care whether they could go on the field anymore. They all tried to persuade him.

Of course, Coach Su...didn't want to lose either.

He looked at the students from Yang City High School.

He pulled up their sprites' information on the interface.

Armored Elephant, Thorny Tortoise, Flame Butterfly, Water-Treading Snail, Two-Headed Hound, Superpower Gibbon, Wind-Patterned Tiger, etc.

"There are a total of seven entry-level sprites."

When Liu Ren and the others heard that, they all lost their confidence.

They couldn't afford to fight three against seven!

Su Hao snorted. "They're just entry-level beginners like all of you, what's there to be afraid of! There are several sprites whose cultivation levels are even lower than yours! Only that Wind-Patterned Tiger is a little tricky."

The Wind-Patterned Tiger was the evolved form of a Wind-Patterned Cat. Not only was it a relatively rare wind attribute, its cultivation level was also pretty good. The sharp claws and wind patterns on its body had all undergone special training.

He was the undisputed number one in terms of pure strength.

But it wasn't to the extent of crushing them.

Su Hao waved at the unconfident Liu Ren and the others.

"Now, listen to my battle tactics."

The ten main players formed a circle, as if they were secretly plotting something that couldn't be revealed.

Liu Ren thought to himself.

Tactics were nothing more than attributes control, sprite type control, and so on.

However, the key to determining victory and defeat was ultimately the degree of cultivation and combat experience.

When they thought this way, they heard…

"Player A's Armored Elephant has a shoulder height of 2.7 meters…" The evolution of Armored Elephant to Elephant General was a rare concentrated evolution.

"According to my observation, it should have mastered unique skills such as Charging, Stone Armor, Energy Ball, and Shock. It is a large-ton defensive sprite. Neither the Lava Tortoise nor the Ascetic Dog can defeat it quickly. Even if they can win, they can't preserve much of their battle power."

"Therefore, to deal with the Armored Elephant, we can only rely on Lingyao's Spring Sprite."

Spring Sprite was the sprite with the strongest destructive power, it could heavily injure the Armored Elephant in one or two moves.

Of course.

The Armored Elephant might be able to kill Spring Sprite in one hit with Charging.

So Gu Lingyao was confused.

"According to my observation and analysis, when the Armored Elephant turns left, its actions will relatively remain unchanged, and it's very likely to show obvious stiffness. This is the best time for the Spring Sprite to erupt."

"In addition, when facing Energy Balls, one can use Bubbles Defense."

"In the face of shock, water can be used to offset it."

"When attacking, aim at the front left leg of the Armored Elephant. As long as the attack works, the threat of the Armored Elephant will be reduced by 70 to 80%."

"After defeating the Armored Elephant, the opponents will most likely send out the Superpower Gibbon."

"The characteristics and unique skills of the Superpower Gibbon are…"

"Just like this… like this, and then like this…"

"Let's talk about how to deal with the Thorny Turtle next…"

"..."

"Let me tell you one last time, how do we deal with that troublesome Wind-Patterned Tiger…"

"…Anyway, this is it. Do you understand?"

Liu Ren and the others widened their eyes.

They looked towards the location of Yang City High School in the distance, and their gazes swept across the sprites one by one.

They then turned back to Su Hao's face.

You called this a battle tactic?

This was clearly cheating!

But this cheat… They liked it too much!

...

During the first battle of the friendly match, both parties submitted the names of the participants.

Just as Su Hao had predicted.

The sprite on Yang City High School's stage was the Armored Elephant.

The Armored Elephant and Spring Sprite stood on the central battle stage. After the old judge made sure that both parties were ready, he waved the flag down.

In an instant…

The Armored Elephant took a step forward and charged. The whole arena rumbled, as if an earthquake was happening.

"Old Su, your judgment is too… too godly, isn't it?"

"A very simple analysis."

Su Hao stretched out a finger. "Firstly, the Armored Elephant looks like a relatively comprehensive sprite. It's fleshy and its speed isn't slow either. You can say that it won't be too passive when dealing with sprites of any attribute or type.

"Secondly, although the Armored Elephant has also mastered long-distance unique skills such as Energy Ball, against the Spring Sprite, anyone would use Charging to close the distance.

"So it's not difficult to analyze. As long as you read more books, learn more, and add a little talent…"

He was a successful person after all.

30% talent.

70% was hard work.

With the addition of the tiny support from his 90 points gold fingers, everything was done.

As they spoke.

The momentum of the Armored Elephant's Charging was becoming fiercer and fiercer.

The Spring Sprite only shot out a water arrow to deal a small injury to the Armored Elephant, it then remained motionless as if it was scared to death.

In an instant…

The Armored Elephant rushed forward.

A puddle of water appeared under the Spring Spirit's feet, pushing it towards the left.

The Armored Elephant that was charging turned around, but only slightly tilted its direction, before brushing past Spring Spirit and dashed over.

"Shock!" Its Sprite Trainer commanded.

The Armored Elephant that was charging lifted its hooves and stepped down heavily.

Bang~!

Large amounts of water exploded under the shaking. Not only was the power of its unique skill mostly neutralized, the water splashing up formed a rain screen covering the entire battle stage.

Amidst the misty rain, the waves slashed at the Armored Elephant's left front leg like blades.

With a tragic cry, it lost its balance and fell heavily.

Only the chorus of "what the f*ck" echoed in the battle hall.
