Chapter 557: Dream Sprite and Season Sprite
Chapter 557: Dream Sprite and Season Sprite
Fangy slowly grew larger.
When four distinctly different but exceptionally ornate familiars appeared on the field, a commotion erupted in the audience stands.
The crowd, which had been shouting Levina’s name, now focused their attention on the two unfamiliar familiars.
To be frank, almost everyone in the audience belonged to the upper echelons of society, well-versed and frequently exposed to some of the rarest familiars.
Yet, they could not recognize either of the two familiars summoned by the Sai Nan High School students, which was simply astounding.
This momentarily made them forget their earlier anticipation for Levina’s familiars to appear.
“Does anyone recognize these two familiars?”
“No idea, never seen them before.”
“I feel like the blue one with the gem on its head is the most beautiful just by appearance.”
“I think the one with the fiery wings is the coolest-looking.”
“Maybe these two familiars are just new to us, so the visual impact is stronger. Levina’s familiars, in terms of appearance, definitely don’t lose out.”
Dream Sprite and Season Sprite were the two familiars summoned by Levina.
These familiars were already renowned for their rarity and exceptional beauty. Coupled with long-term meticulous care, professional grooming, and trained manners, every strand of their fur exuded an aura of “I am very expensive.”
At this moment, a blonde boy exclaimed:
“I found it!”
“What?” The people around him turned to ask.
The boy, holding a Familiar Identifier that wasn’t available on the market, said, “Icechill, that blue familiar is from Blue Star Dragon Country!”
“I found it too!” Another black-haired girl read from her Familiar Identifier, “Icechill, Water and Ice dual-attribute Advanced Familiar.”
At this point, she paused, suddenly widening her eyes and exclaiming:
“Oh my God! This is a nearly extinct familiar!”
A nearly extinct familiar? The crowd was taken aback, their expressions changing rapidly as they hurriedly pulled out their own Familiar Identifiers to scan the blue familiar on the field.
Sure enough, the information displayed that it was indeed a nearly extinct familiar.
A loud buzz of conversation erupted in the audience stands.
It was well known that all nearly extinct familiars were under strict protection by the Alliance and the government, and it was not something that just anyone could bond with, even with their backgrounds.
To bond a nearly extinct familiar, one had to first submit an application. The institution responsible for researching and protecting nearly extinct familiars would investigate the applicant’s background, financial status, and other relevant issues.
Of course, those without any background might not even have the qualification to submit an application.
There was another crucial point.
The applicant had to have made significant contributions to the research and protection of the nearly extinct familiar’s species.
After that, an evaluation of the applicant’s knowledge about the species would be conducted to ensure they had a deep understanding.
Only after passing the evaluation would the applicant be given the chance to apply for bonding.
However, this did not guarantee success.
The application would then be submitted to the national authorities for approval by the Endangered Familiar Protection Center.
The entire process could take at least half a year.
At any stage, if someone expressed disapproval, the application could be rejected.
Yet, someone had managed to bond a nearly extinct familiar?
And it was someone their own age?
This was simply unbelievable!
“What about the other familiar? What’s its name?” someone suddenly asked.
One of the benefits of having a powerful background was using the highest-end Familiar Identifiers. Soon, someone found the relevant information.
“It’s called Blazing Star Hound, a Fire and Psychic dual-attribute Advanced Familiar from Blue Star Dragon Country,” the person read from the Familiar Identifier.
The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.
Compared to the nearly extinct blue familiar, this rare dual-attribute familiar was much more acceptable.
"Looks like this girl is from Blue Star", a brown-haired girl remarked.
The schools that came to participate in the Friendly Match were all prestigious institutions from the top three districts. Naturally, each year, several of these schools had exchange students from other planets.
At that moment, a boy seemed to remember something and asked, his expression puzzled:
"Wasn't the girl from Sai Nan High School's Star Array orange-yellow?"
The people around him fell silent at his words.
Many began to recall the summoning scene that had just taken place on the field.
It seemed, it appeared, it really was orange-yellow...
Realizing this, everyone's eyes shifted to Qiao Sang, their expressions filled with shock.
They had seen plenty of high-level Star Arrays in their daily lives, and their attention had been drawn to the two unfamiliar familiars. The color of the Star Array had completely slipped their minds.
An Amber Star Array was nothing out of the ordinary, but for it to appear on a peer was quite alarming.
...
On the field.
Qiao Sang's attention was focused on the two Green Star Arrays that had appeared when the opponent made the hand seals.
She recognized very few of the Supernest familiars, and even if a legendary familiar appeared before her, it wouldn't be much different from any other familiar, as she didn't know them. At most, she might find their appearance more striking.
The two familiars in front of her were indeed quite stunning.
That was all.
The next second, her thoughts were absorbed in the two Green Star Arrays that had appeared simultaneously.
She had seen such simultaneous Star Arrays in doubles matches on TV and had heard that to summon two or three familiars at once, one needed to use different hand seal gestures.
But this was the first time she had seen someone do it in real life.
It seemed she should find some time to learn the hand seal gestures for summoning multiple familiars. After all, she now owned four familiars, and she would eventually need to use this skill... Just as Qiao Sang was pondering this, the match's start signal sounded.
"Mengmeng~"
"Four Seasons~"
Levina's two familiars immediately began to spin and fly upward, like a beautiful performance.
As they flew, they left trails of blue fluorescence, much like the flight effects in a game, incredibly mesmerizing.
Only then did the audience shift their attention back to Levina's two familiars.
"Does Levina think this is a Coordination Competition?"
"Others are from the coordination circle; even in team battles, they prioritize aesthetics during the fight. They've never made a match look like a Familiar Arena."
"That's Levina's strategy", someone who had watched many of Levina's Coordination Competitions explained. "She uses a dazzling performance to draw the opponent's attention, but they don't realize it's a trap."
"Did you see that blue fluorescence? That's the Dream Sprite using Dream Control. If the opponent focuses on it for more than three seconds, they'll be forcibly pulled into a dream."
Hearing this, the person beside him quickly averted his gaze. "Why didn't you say so earlier! I've been staring at it for so long!"
The original speaker was speechless.
"The Dream Sprite is only an Intermediate Familiar, so its influence isn't that wide. It can only pull targets close to it into the dream. Didn't you notice the Dream Sprite and Season Sprite getting closer to the two Blue Star familiars?"
"I get it!" the person beside him exclaimed, suddenly understanding. "It looks like a performance, but it's actually an attack! Brilliant!"
As he spoke, the Dream Sprite and Season Sprite suddenly dropped to the ground with a thud, as if they had been forcefully slammed down.
"Fangy"
At the same time, Fangy's blue eyes showed a hint of confusion.
Isn't this a match?
Why is the opponent spinning so leisurely?
