Compared to the battle on this side, the duel between Huo Xian’er and Zhang Shengnan on the other arena seemed completely evenly matched.
Although one had a flying spiritual pet and the other a land-based one, the Earth Azure Dragon possessed extremely strong defensive capabilities.
Zhang Shengnan’s Storm Hawk, true to its name, controlled the wind element.
Originally, Zhang Shengnan could have had the Storm Hawk directly attack Huo Xian’er, but she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
As a result, the battle dragged on for a long time, with no clear winner even now.
Although the Storm Hawk was powerful, it had no way to break through the Earth Azure Dragon’s formidable defense.
Just then, the referee’s voice announcing the victory from the other arena caught Zhang Shengnan off guard.
“The winner… Ye Ling!”
She hadn’t expected that in such a short time, Li Shengtian had already lost.
The winner turned out to be that Ye Ling she so despised.
If Huo Xian’er made it to the finals, she wouldn’t have a chance to deal with Ye Ling herself.
She had been counting on Li Shengtian to eliminate Ye Ling, but unexpectedly, he lost.
If she lost here, the finalists would be Huo Xian’er and Ye Ling.
The thought of the two of them facing off made Zhang Shengnan frown instantly.
She really didn’t want Ye Ling and Huo Xian’er to meet. What if sparks flew between them?
If that happened, she wouldn’t even have a place to cry. Wouldn’t that just give them an opportunity?
Thinking of this, Zhang Shengnan’s expression turned serious, and she made a decision.
No matter what, she had to make it to the finals herself and personally deal with Ye Ling.
She absolutely couldn’t let Ye Ling and Huo Xian’er face each other.
Then, Zhang Shengnan ordered her Storm Hawk to directly attack Huo Xian’er.
Facing the Storm Hawk’s attack, the Earth Azure Dragon could protect itself but couldn’t shield Huo Xian’er.
As a result, it wasn’t long before Huo Xian’er, unable to hold on, was knocked off the arena.
Zhang Shengnan won the battle and smoothly advanced to the finals.
After the result was announced, Zhang Shengnan immediately went to Huo Xian’er and quickly helped her up.
“Xian’er, I’m sorry, but I had to make it to the finals.”
After apologizing, Zhang Shengnan said firmly.
Of course, there was another thought she didn’t voice: she wanted to personally teach Ye Ling a lesson.
Although she had seen Ye Ling’s battles and knew he was strong, Zhang Shengnan didn’t think she was weak.
Anyone who had made it this far wasn’t weak.
However, because of her fight with Huo Xian’er, she hadn’t paid attention to the battle between Li Shengtian and Ye Ling.
That’s why she was so confident.
In response to Zhang Shengnan’s apology, Huo Xian’er shook her head and smiled.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine. Congratulations on making it to the finals. I’m looking forward to your next battle.”
Although she felt a bit regretful about not making it to the finals, Huo Xian’er wasn’t too concerned.
Her current performance was enough to get her into the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy, so losing didn’t matter.
Hearing Huo Xian’er’s words, Zhang Shengnan’s spirits lifted, and she quickly responded.
“Xian’er, don’t worry. I will definitely get first place.”
As she spoke, Zhang Shengnan’s gaze turned to Ye Ling, who was resting in the break area.
Her eyes were filled with fighting spirit, ready to face Ye Ling at any moment.
Seeing Zhang Shengnan so confident, Huo Xian’er shook her head slightly but said nothing more.
She knew very well that although Zhang Shengnan had a flying spiritual pet and a significant advantage, she couldn’t see through Ye Ling’s strength.
Zhang Shengnan’s chances of winning were slim.
On the viewing platform, the head of the Zhang family beamed with pride as he saw his daughter advance to the finals.
But he was also a bit worried, knowing how powerful Ye Ling’s spiritual pet was.
He felt that his daughter’s chances of winning against Ye Ling were slim.
However, he didn’t ask for much. Zhang Shengnan’s current achievement already made him very satisfied.
Whether she got first place or not didn’t matter to him.
Turning to the Huo family not far away, the head of the Zhang family laughed.
“Head of the Huo family, it seems my daughter is a bit stronger, hahaha!”
The two often compared their daughters, each believing theirs was stronger.
Now, with Zhang Shengnan’s victory, the head of the Zhang family felt very proud.
Huo Qingshan shook his head slightly. Though he was very displeased, he still responded.
“If it weren’t for the rule allowing attacks on the Spirit Tamer, who knows who would have won. This time, your daughter was just lucky.”
A loss was a loss, but he didn’t want to admit it.
Admitting it would mean his daughter was inferior, and Huo Qingshan couldn’t accept that.
Seeing Huo Qingshan’s refusal to admit defeat, the head of the Zhang family pursed his lips. What could he do if the other refused to concede? He couldn’t force him to admit defeat.
After another half-hour break, the final battle of the second stage of the assessment finally arrived.
The opponents were Ye Ling and Zhang Shengnan.
