Chapter 329: In Terms of Strength, Only the Sword God in Dragon Nation Is Worth Paying Attention To

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On the last day of the inheritance battle, the actual battle was held in a special area in the City of Glow—Elemental Lake.

There weren’t a few hundred participants in the final combat assessment, but only twenty to thirty people who had passed the screening and still had a chance of qualifying.

In the Dragon Nation, Apart from Su Hao, only Li Jianxuan, Lan Qing, and Xia were qualified to participate.

For the others, such as Bai Xiaoming and Lin, their performance in the first few rounds of the assessment was relatively ordinary. According to the tallying of the scores, even if they obtained the top three and first place in the last round of the assessment… their total score would still make it difficult for them to reach the top seven.

Besides…

“I still know my limits. In terms of strength, I can’t even be ranked in the top three in our Dragon Nation team, let alone facing the geniuses of the world.”

Bai Xiaoming said, “As for you, as long as you don’t fight too badly, the inheritance slot won’t run away. You basically already have a slot guaranteed.”

I have a feeling that you’re trying to pick a fight, but I am not too certain.

But according to Su Hao’s own estimation, it was indeed true. No matter how he calculated, a person as outstanding as him was definitely guaranteed a slot.

However, Su Hao had to remain humble.

Su Hao waved his hand. “I’m only 99% sure that I’ll get a slot. It’s not a sure thing yet. I still need to work hard.”

He continued to say, before Bai Xiaoming’s mouth twitched, “Speaking of which, what’s the situation with the Elemental Lake?”

He originally wanted to ask the Heavenly King Lie Kong.

But the big bosses like Heavenly King Lie Kong were busy giving pointers to Lan Qing, Li Jianxuan, and Xia before the battle, along with some tips on tactics.

Only he…

“You, you don’t need anything. You just need to perform at your usual level.”

Heavenly King Lie Kong had said so back then.

— Do you have so much confidence in my abilities? What if my stomach suddenly hurts, or if my head feels dizzy… Oh, my sprites would still be fine… never mind.

Hearing Su Hao’s question, Bai Xiaoming couldn’t help but feel puzzled. Nevertheless, he still answered the question in detail.

“As the name suggests, the Lake of Elements is a lake filled with countless elements of various attributes…”

At this point, Bai Xiaoming paused and also sighed. “I don’t have much expectations for the inheritance slot, but I am quite eager to go to the Elemental Lake. In that environment of endless elements, unique skills can be used at will, their power multiplied by dozens of times, and vast elements can be triggered with a single thought. It’s very beneficial to the elemental control of sprites and their own improvement.”

“It’s the same as the previous assessments. It’s both an assessment and a benefit, but I reckon that fighting on the Elemental Lake will consume a lot of elemental energy there. It’s also possible that there wasn’t enough time for everyone, so they decided to eliminate ordinary contestants like us.”

“How sad, I can’t breathe…”

So that was why.

Su Hao didn’t care if Bai Xiaoming was in pain or not. He roughly understood the situation of the assessment tomorrow.

Real combat was naturally the most direct test method, but this battle was still different from other battles.

The biggest difference was probably…

Ordinary battles in the Union of Sprite Trainers had its limitations, whereas the battle at Elemental Lake allowed infinite firepower.

The energy one could use was almost endless.

The cooldown time was greatly reduced.

The power of the unique skill was much greater.

Thinking about it this way, he was also looking forward to it.

…

White Bear Nation, conference room.

There were only eight people in the entire meeting room. Four Heavenly Kings and four contestants who were qualified to participate in the battle at Elemental Lake the next day.

One of the four was Aria Winter Singer.

And three young men that will currently remain nameless.

They were looking ahead. On the big screen, the information of the participating Sprite Trainers from other countries was displayed.

A Heavenly King who was even more muscular than the White Bear and had a thunder drum printed on his coat said, “The thing you need to pay the most attention to tomorrow is Golden Eagle Federation’s Sun Son.”

He looked at the three ordinary young men. “If you meet him, I’ll allow you to choose to preserve your strength.”

To put it simply, he allowed them to admit defeat.

If they couldn’t win, they would just admit defeat. This way, they could still conceal their trump card.

A slightly thin young man from the White Bear Tribe was a little unconvinced when he heard the Heavenly King’s words.

He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything…

Heavenly King Thunder Drum threw out the information in his hand. “Two months ago, Adolf, the Sun Son, made a record. At that time, his ace sprite, ‘Fire God Soldier’, defeated a quasi- Heavenly King instructor at the Bull Royal College in a head on battle.”

“According to speculation and analysis, the Fire God Soldier has already stepped into pseudo monarch rank!”

Pseudo monarch rank!

At the extraordinary stage, sprites needed a vast amount of resources to grow, and there was also a bottleneck. Even if their sprites had already consumed many high-level materials, it still wasn’t likely for them to reach pseudo monarch rank.

The Fire God Soldier was already at a high level.

If it was true that they only had a slight chance of competing with the Sun Son in the previous rounds of the assessment, then there was indeed no chance of them winning tomorrow’s battle.

The few young men who knew their own strength already had no objections.

Even the strongest of the four, the Winter Aria Singer, Bella, could only barely fight against the Sun Son.

“What about the Sprite Trainers of Dragon Nation?”

A young man asked, “Among the Dragon Nation team, the Six God, the Wind Speaker, and the Sword God… are all experts ranked in the top ten, especially…”

He glanced at the short brown-haired Bella.

The performance of the Six God in many assessments was even more dazzling than the performance of Bella and the Sun Son.

They didn’t dare to underestimate him at all.

Upon hearing this…

Heavenly King Thunder Drum pressed the remote control in his hand. On the screen, four avatars enlarged. They were the avatars of the four young Sprite Trainers from Dragon Nation who were qualified to participate in the battle tomorrow.

From left to right, in order: Six God, Wind Speaker, Sword God, Xia.

“Dragon Nation, it truly is filled with geniuses…”

When he thought of Su Hao and Lan Qing, the two especially young Sprite Trainers, Heavenly King Thunder Drum couldn’t help but sigh. Their current new generation was still inferior to the Dragon Nation, but…

“The Six God and the Wind Speaker are both very outstanding young people that will do very well in the future. However, right now, they are too young. Their strength isn’t top-notch in the inheritance battle…”

As Heavenly King Thunder Drum spoke, the big screen showed Su Hao and Lan Qing’s battle information from a few months ago.

Images from the High School League.

Not strong.

“Of course, with their improvement speed, they still can’t be underestimated. It’s just that compared to the two of them, Sword God and Xia are more of a threat among the Dragon Nation’s participants.”

“Especially Sword God Li Jianxuan. He has become one with the sword and has already become a sword force. He should be the strongest person in the Dragon Nation team. He’s also the one you need to pay attention to the most.”

The few of them nodded.

Looking at the pictures of Sun Son, Sword God, and the others, their gaze was filled with seriousness.

…

The next day.

North of the City of Glow, at the Elemental Lake.

Hundreds of Sprite Trainers from various countries gathered again, but today, most of the hundreds of geniuses were just spectators.

They looked at the twenty to thirty people standing at the front.

The top geniuses in the Supernova Cup.

These were the true main characters of the day!
