Dragon Tamer

Chapter 372: Chapter 374 Trainees’ Confrontation
Jiang Zhiyi was fuming.

Even though he was much stronger than Hong Hao, his Ancient Ape Dragon ended up injured and unable to continue fighting.

Just as he was about to take out his Corpse Swamp Dragon and teach that guy a harsh lesson, the opponent ran off!

This left Jiang Zhiyi feeling like he had no outlet for his strength!

The most infuriating part was that he had revealed his Corpse Swamp Dragon.

After all, the Corpse Swamp Dragon is a dragon of the Peak High-Rank Dragon General level, only one step away from the Lord Level!

“The Dragon Shepherds from Li Chuan seem to be not so weak after all, having even defeated an Ancient Ape Dragon General of High Rank,” someone in the stands started to discuss.

Using three dragons with lower cultivation bases to challenge a higher cultivation dragon, the tactics were well executed too. Utilizing the characteristics of the three dragons to restrain, maneuver, suppress, and drain, the Ancient Ape Dragon should have had a unilateral advantage. However, it ended up having to be taken back for healing. Jiang Zhiyi was simply too contemptuous of his enemy.”

“I wonder if Li Chuan has anyone even stronger. I thought this would be boring, but now I’m quite looking forward to it.”

This first battle made many of the proud students from the high court take a second look at the Dragon Shepherds from Li Chuan, after all, not everyone was confident they could match the Ancient Ape Dragon.

“Li Chuan Academy, please send out the next student,” urged Sun Chong, suppressing the urge within him to curse.

He could have just summoned both the Ancient Ape Dragon and the Corpse Swamp Dragon, and completely crushed this nobody. Instead, he arrogantly went for one against three!

Sun Chong could understand the desire to prove oneself, but the resultant slightly sorry state left him very dissatisfied.

This was, after all, a public challenge.

And the evaluation of the students and teachers to some extent affected whether Li Chuan Academy was permitted to join the regular academy ranks.

If others performed and gained the approval of the viewers, it was like giving Sun Chong a slap in the face, especially since he was the one who had organized this spectacle and promoted it extensively!

“Don’t cause any more trouble!” Sun Chong glared fiercely at Jiang Zhiyi.

“Don’t worry, teacher…” Jiang Zhiyi nodded his head.

…

Duan Changqing had Li Shaoying take the stage.

Li Shaoying possessed a Black Serpent, whose cultivation was also at the Peak High-Rank Dragon General level.

However, it engaged in a bitter struggle against the Corpse Swamp Dragon.

In battle, Li Shaoying was obviously not as smooth and calm as Hong Hao.

He was always trying to use the Black Serpent’s power to completely crush the Corpse Swamp Dragon, caring too much about the immediate back and forth between the two dragons just for a slight edge, ignoring the search for the opponent’s weakness, and not knowing how to pursue victory after gaining an advantage.

“Li Shaoying, let your Black Serpent judge for itself,” Duan Changqing suddenly said.

Li Shaoying was startled for a moment, then finally nodded, no longer commanding at whim.

The Black Serpent was tenacious and also carried a proud and wild nature; it began to falter, but never forgot to look for a chance to counterattack.

In the end, the battle concluded with both sides badly injured.

“I… I was too nervous. I shouldn’t have given random commands,” Li Shaoying seemed to realize his mistake, looking remorsefully at the badly wounded Black Serpent.

The Black Serpent simply coiled its body and began to lick its wounds slowly.

Seeing its skilled and calm demeanor, it seemed as though it had long grown accustomed to such battles.

Li Shaoying quickly took out some prepared ointment to help the Black Serpent…

Jiang Zhiyi was incredibly frustrated.

This was how he was eliminated.

In his view, he alone could have defeated all the students from Li Chuan, without needing anyone else from his team to lift a finger. Little did he know that he only defeated two of their members, and the victories weren’t even impressive.

…

Next to fight were Chen Bai and Lu Wenye.

Both of their cultivation bases were not high, and were dealt with by a single opponent.

Lu Wenye risked her life and seriously injured the opponent’s Giant Dragon, barely forcing the opponent to also leave the field.

On Li Chuan’s side, already four students had been defeated.

Whereas at Man City Academy, only two had entered the battle.

The situation was already very unfavorable.

“Everyone, I’m sorry,” Lu Wenye’s face was somewhat pale.

A dragon’s demise could possibly mean she would never be able to advance in her lifetime, that moment just now was truly dangerous.

Fortunately, Lu Wenye often went out to gain experience, and relying on her experience and instinct, she managed to save her dragon from disaster.

But she had still lost.

She didn’t make it to the next round.

She had originally wanted to deal with this tough opponent and at least hold out until the next round to test the strength of the next opponent for her companions, but her condition was no longer fit for further battle.

“It’s okay, as long as you did your best,” Duan Changqing consoled.

Lu Wenye nodded weakly, she went down to where the crowd was and saw Zhu Minglang.

Lu Wenye naturally recognized Zhu Minglang; he had been a “substitute teacher” in Red Lotus City and had also witnessed the terrifying scene of the Ghost Face Evil Spider preying on a Giant Dragon.

“I have some high-quality medicine here, take it and use it, you have improved a lot in a year,” Zhu Minglang also remembered her, as a very independent and strong-willed female student who was hardworking and resilient.

He didn’t quite remember what she looked like and initially didn’t recognize her, but her qualities had left a deep impression on him.

“Thank you, I’ll be counting on you from here on,” Lu Wenye said.

“Counting on him?” Fei Song stood aside with his arms crossed and a hint of contempt.

He had no idea who this Zhu Minglang was.

Instead, when he showed up, the others had high expectations for him.

But in Fei Song’s view, this guy’s cultivation wasn’t high either, he remembered probing a few days ago and it seemed to be at the Sub-level.

“Fei Song, it’s your turn; the opponent is a bit strong, so be careful,” Duan Changqing said.

“Lu Wenye, just watch how I claim victory, there is no need to rely on some unknown person,” Fei Song spoke arrogantly.

…

Indeed, Fei Song had some strength.

He summoned two dragons, both at the Peak of High-Rank Dragon General level, and their combat power seemed to be a few notches stronger than other dragon beasts of the same cultivation base.

He defeated one of the Man City Academy students.

Suddenly, the eye-catching female student Lu Fang took the stage.

Her strength was not to be underestimated either, summoning only one dragon, but this dragon was at the Lord Level.

Fei Song also withdrew his previous two dragons at the same time and summoned a Ying Mountain Dragon!

“It’s Lord Level too!”

“It seems that Li Chuan Academy isn’t just any ordinary school, they have students of such high cultivation level!”

“It might just be a bluff; there are probably only a few in the whole Li Chuan with Lord-level cultivation.”

“We should still not underestimate others too much.”

As the discussions reached their peak, many students from high courts who had only been enrolled for a few years might not even possess Lord-level cultivation.

Fei Song’s gaze swept around him, clearly enjoying the attention, and he couldn’t help but let his lips curl into a smile.

Lu Fang was just as surprised; the opponent was stronger than expected. A student from an academy in a remote area having such a level of strength was already quite commendable, and the other regional branches were probably around this standard as well.
