Chapter Twenty-Four: Victory in the First Battle
Before the start of the competition, everyone's spirit beasts had already been domesticated. Gu Yu's spirit pet petals were always flying beside her, as if she were a flower. Zimo puts the spirit pet peach blossom in the water balloon every day, and the peach blossoms move up and down the water balloon, like a peach petal floating and sinking in the water, which looks very beautiful. I often go to tease Xue Shuangling's spirit pet Xiao Ling, because I always feed it bread cubes, Xiao Ling likes me very much, and when he sees me from afar, he will fly over and stop on my shoulder.
When it was finally time to get up and go to Lingbing Country to compete, I always remembered what the Potions Placement Class teacher had told me before, and decided to take the opportunity of the competition to investigate my background.
Before, when I attacked Gu Yu in the potions configuration class, my eyes turned red, and later I found that I could control the change of pupil color, but I could only switch between red and black. I think the red eyes are too dazzling, so I always show people with black eyes.
Sitting in the car to Lingbing Country, I kept thinking about my life experience. If I really was the half-blood princess from before, who were the people who chased me and killed me, and were they thieves? Then did I belong to the Blood Demon Kingdom or the Lingbing Kingdom? What happened a hundred years ago that caused the highest-level bloodline half-blood princess to die?
The more I thought about it, the more confused my thoughts became, and my head ached. "Xiao Ling, don't be too nervous. Xue Shuangling thought I was hurting my nerves for the game and comforted. Spirit pet Xiao Ling thought that Xue Shuangling was calling herself, so she flew to Xue Shuangling and screamed.
I snorted and laughed, "Look at your name! I can't tell who you're calling it." Xue Shuangling scratched her head and smiled embarrassedly.
At this time, it was winter in the Lingyu Realm, and the Lingbing Country was even colder than elsewhere, so we all put on our thickest winter clothes. Xue Fei Na happened to have something to deal with these days and couldn't leave, so she entrusted Xue Shuangling with carte blanche to take us to the competition. The strength of the Spirit Fighting Academy is one of the best in the Lingyu Realm, and it seems that the principal did not pay attention to this small preliminary competition.
Xue Shuangling took us to stay in the Ice and Snow Hotel next to the stadium. The hotel level of Lingbing Country is divided into five levels, and the fifth level is the best, and the Ice and Snow Hotel is the fifth level hotel. When you walk into the lobby of the hotel, you will see a huge fountain made of ice, and the water will spurt out of the fountain, condense into ice, and then turn into water, and so on. The halls are lined with delicate ice sculptures and carved angels of various shapes.
"You're really rich...... Zimo said to Xue Shuangling, "I chose such a good hotel." "All expenses are reimbursed by the school, and the principal said that there is no need to worry about the expenses, and that the food and accommodation should be as good as possible." Xue Shuangling smiled.
Xue Shuangling arranged for us to have a room for each person, and was about to say to the front desk lady when Xuan Ye spoke: "That...... I just live in one room with Qingmei to save some money for the school. "The school has paid you for this room?" Xue Shuangling laughed angrily.
"I ...... I can live with Xuanye, Brother Shuangling, you can agree. Qingmei blushed, gently tugged at Xuanye's sleeve and whispered to Xue Shuangling. "Let's stay in one too. Before Xue Shuangling could answer, Gu Yu preemptively said.
I burst out laughing, thinking that Xue Shuangling was so miserable, completely forgetting that I was a single dog myself.
"Okay, okay," Xue Shuangling said helplessly, "you can live together." Before Zimo went upstairs, he leaned into Xue Shuangling's ear and whispered, "Why don't you and Yuling live in one room, our team is still single for the two of you, why don't you two try it?" "What nonsense!" Xue Shuangling blushed and started messing with Zimo. I listened to their whispers word for word, and blushed on the ground.
"Xiao Ling, your room is in 423. Xue Shuangling said to me, "My room is in 424, next to you, if you have anything, you can come to me directly." ”
The room is also covered with ice and snow themed decorations, which makes me feel very intimate. As soon as Ice Cream entered the door, he accidentally knocked down an ice sculpture snowman, and the ice sculpture shattered on the ground, and the snowman's head rolled out with a grunt. Startled, Ice Cream knew she had made a mistake and looked up at me cautiously. "It's fine. I touched its head and reached out to restore the ice sculpture to its original shape. Many buildings in the Lingbing Kingdom are made of ice, and the ice from which the houses and furniture are built does not melt all year round. It's really convenient to live in Lingbing Country, and anything that is broken can be restored at any time.
After a long day of driving to the arena in Lingbing Country, I felt so tired that I took a shower and went to bed. As I was taking a shower, I noticed that my mark had turned a very light blue, and I guess the seal was about to be completely broken. I touched my mark expectantly and smiled at myself in the mirror.
When I got up in the morning, I ate the breakfast provided by the hotel and walked out the door, where they were already waiting for me at the door.
The preliminary round required each registered team to enter the robot battle room in turn and conduct a timed battle, and we were ranked No. 203.
The times of the first few teams have been announced on the big screen, and the fastest time is about a minute.
"Frost Ling, I think if we fight together, we may not be able to defeat ten battle robots in less than a minute, so we will definitely not get a good ranking. I said to Xue Shuangling. "So you can only outwit," Xue Shuangling frowned slightly.
"By the way, Xiao Ling, do you remember when you froze the whole class?" Xue Shuangling suddenly remembered what happened before, and said it quickly.
As soon as these words came out, except for Qingmei and Xuanye, who didn't know why, we were all a little embarrassed. Gu Yu coughed lightly: "Yes, Yu Ling could freeze the classmates before, then he can also freeze the robot now, so that if we attack again, it should be much faster." ”
We walked into the robot battle room. Ten giant battle robots appear in front of you, twice as big as the school's ones and with more attack power.
The robot was so fast that I jumped up and dodged the blow. In less than a few seconds, we were scattered by the battle robots, Gu Yu, Zimo, Xuanye, Qingmei and Xue Shuangling each fought against the two robots, let me get out.
I stepped aside, and the temperature in the battle room plummeted. Soon, extremely thick ice formed on the ground, and the ice spread upward, and soon all ten combat robots were unable to move and lost their attack power.
Ten battle robots were defeated in an instant, and it took a total of 36 seconds.
Without a doubt, we took the least amount of time and came in first.
"Everyone behaved very well today," Xue Shuangling said to us in the lobby of the hotel, "and reward everyone with a bottle of soda." But don't take it lightly, keep up the good work in the rematch!"
"Why is our soda all peach juice, and only Sister Yuling's orange juice?" Qingmei looked up at Xue Shuangling.
Xue Shuangling's face flushed slightly: "She likes to drink orange juice." ”
He knew I liked orange juice? like...... It seems that he only mentioned it once in a while, but I didn't expect him to write it down.
I unscrewed the cap of the bottle and took a sip of orange juice and smiled.
