Chapter 64 – Schadenfreude, backfire


Outside the Secret Realm, the representatives of the four top Spirit Tamer Academies, who had returned to the scene, also noticed the situation within the Secret Realm.

They all saw Huo Xian’er being chased by the Shadow Demon Wolves.

Initially, the other three representatives believed that this genius girl would definitely enter the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy.

However, given the current situation, the chances seemed very slim.

“Teacher Huo, it looks like the genius you came specifically for isn’t having much luck, running into a pack of Shadow Demon Wolves.”

Bai Tong looked at the situation within the Secret Realm, a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes.

After all, if a genius girl couldn’t join their White Tiger Spirit Tamer Academy, it was best if she didn’t join any of the other top Spirit Tamer Academies either.

Every year, the Spirit Tamer Academies would have a grand competition. The fewer geniuses the opponents had, and the more they had, the greater their chances of winning.

Winning the grand competition could bring many rewards from the Federation.

These rewards included a large amount of resources and even powerful spiritual pets.

It was something all Spirit Tamer Academies fought for every year.

Of course, different levels of Spirit Tamer Academies competed separately.

Top Spirit Tamer Academies only competed against other top Spirit Tamer Academies.

The academy battles were team battles.

Naturally, there were also individual battles.

Individual battles were not divided by academy level, and the rewards belonged to the individual.

Seeing Bai Tong’s gloating expression, Huo Ling tightly gripped the armrest of her chair.

Her expression clearly showed her displeasure.

She had thought Huo Xian’er would easily make it into the top ten.

She hadn’t expected such bad luck, encountering this situation in the first stage of the assessment.

She had come here specifically for Huo Xian’er.

If Huo Xian’er couldn’t pass the first stage, wouldn’t her trip be in vain?

Of course, there were other students nearby to choose from.

But that went against her purpose.

“Hmph! The outcome is still uncertain. Teacher Bai, it’s best not to jump to conclusions. You might end up eating your words.”

With a cold snort, Huo Ling retorted.

She turned her head away, not wanting to deal with Bai Tong, worried she might lose her temper.

This was a public place, and it wouldn’t be appropriate for two academy representatives to start a fight.

Though she was upset, Huo Ling knew how to weigh the importance of things.

Lu Feng and Hong Xiu exchanged glances, both shaking their heads with wry smiles.

Though Bai Tong’s words were unpleasant, they were true.

Huo Xian’er’s situation was dire.

Due to the darkness of the night, they hadn’t noticed that Ye Ling was nearby.

After all, Ye Ling had been resting on a treetop, and no one expected him to be there.

The flash of blood on the screen made all the representatives watching the battle pause.

Then, under the attack of the Shadow Demon Wolf leader, the blood shadow revealed its true form.

They finally saw that the blood shadow was Ye Ling’s spiritual pet, Blood Phantom.

Seeing the sudden appearance of Blood Phantom, Huo Ling, who had been prepared for the worst, was instantly overjoyed.

Ye Ling could use Second Level Spiritual Power Chains.

With his unique spiritual pet, Huo Ling believed Huo Xian’er’s crisis was over.

In contrast to Huo Ling’s improved mood, Bai Tong’s face darkened.

He had just said Huo Xian’er would be eliminated, but now she was saved, making him look foolish.

Looking at Blood Phantom on the screen, Bai Tong was displeased.

“Why interfere now? Just mind your own business.”

Of course, he could only say this in his heart. Bai Tong wouldn’t say it out loud in front of others.

Back in the Secret Realm, Blood Phantom revealed itself and landed steadily on the ground.

“Is this… Ye Ling’s spiritual pet?!”

Seeing Blood Phantom, Huo Xian’er exclaimed in surprise.

She had been ready to give up, not expecting a sudden savior.

And this savior was very strong, even on par with her.

An Earth Azure Dragon was already enough to make all the Shadow Demon Wolves attack.

Now, with another spiritual pet as strong as the Earth Azure Dragon, the Shadow Demon Wolves had no hope.

The Shadow Demon Wolf leader’s fierce eyes were fixed on Blood Phantom.

Being suddenly interrupted, the Shadow Demon Wolf leader wouldn’t let it go easily.

Even though two of its subordinates had just died, it didn’t deter the Shadow Demon Wolf leader.

The Earth Azure Dragon was heavily injured. If they continued attacking, it would surely die.

In this situation, the Shadow Demon Wolf leader wouldn’t retreat.

“Howl~!”

A long howl echoed through the sky.

The Shadow Demon Wolf leader prepared for a new round of attacks.
