Chapter 202: Lanshan High School
Its team’s core member, Zhou Yunong, was considered a genius second only to Xiong Zhigang. He was hailed as the best high school beastmaster in Liuhe Base City.
Lanshan High School had remained undefeated thus far this season. They were the only school to maintain this record. This was particularly notable because Qishen Academy managed to snatch four victories from Duxing High School in the previous round of the competition during solo mode. It was considered Duxing High School\'s greatest humiliation in a decade.
Lanshan High School was seen as the strongest contender for the championship this season with their undefeated streak.
At 3:00 p.m., the old bus from Red Flag High School driven by Driver Qin slowly rolled into Lanshan High School’s campus. This historic high school was built into the mountainside. The mountain’s rare greenery added to the campus\'s beauty. It was one of the famous landmarks of the city; however, it wasn’t a place that just anyone could enter to explore and admire.
In stark contrast to Hongye High School’s ultra-modern skyscrapers, Lanshan High School had clearly striven to preserve its natural landscape. Unfortunately, while Hongye High School adhered to the tradition of ancient martial arts, Lanshan High School was renowned as a pioneer in modern martial arts.
Li Xiaofei gazed out the window at Lanshan High School’s campus. Setting aside everything else, just the greenery on campus spoke volumes about the luxury this top-tier noble high school boasted. In an era where water was so scarce, only the most elite could afford to cultivate such extensive plant life.
The bus entered a tunnel and eventually reached an underground parking lot. The famous Lanshan Stadium was located within the mountain itself, earning it the reputation as the most fortified event venue in Liuhe Base City.
As soon as the team members stepped off the bus, the sound of flashing cameras filled the air. Hundreds of reporters rushed forward, raising their microphones high.
"Will Outlaw Rebel Li Xiaofei be competing today?"
"Has the conflict between Li Xiaofei and Yan Chiyu been resolved?"
"Principal Chen, has the internal conflict between the core team members been settled?"
"How did you punish Li Xiaofei for leaving the field early and disregarding the team\'s discipline?"
"We\'ve heard that Lanshan High School is very interested in Li Xiaofei and plans to poach him..."
The reporters shouted incessantly. Red Flag High School’s continued excellent performance in the league had attracted a significant amount of attention. As such, the day’s match was the highlight of this round of the league, attracting a massive number of reporters.
Finally, the Lanshan High School\'s security team managed to carve a path through the throng and escorted them to the locker room. After a short while, there was a knock on the door.
Little White Dragon in the Waves Shen Yan entered with Little You to conduct a pre-match interview. This was a newly introduced segment by the Education Department. Officially designated hosts were now allowed to conduct brief interviews before the match.
Li Xiaofei’s gaze instinctively went straight to Little You’s legs.
Oh, black stockings. As expected. Forever classic.
Noticing his glance, Little You immediately stood up straighter. “Idol, I’m wearing black stockings in just the style you like! If you prefer ones with letters or patterns, I can wear those too!”
Li Xiaofei almost leaped forward to cover her mouth.
I was just joking back then!
The atmosphere in the locker room instantly lightened up. Even Yan Chiyu had a smile on her face. Shen Yan silently breathed a sigh of relief. Rumors about discord within the Red Flag High School team had been rampant online. They had included detailed descriptions that had seemed convincing at the time, but seeing the atmosphere in the locker room, things seemed fine. There wasn’t any of the rumored tension.
After asking a few simple questions, Shen Yan wisely led Little You out, understanding that the team had limited time to prepare for the match.
"Good luck, idol!" said Little You as she turned back before leaving, pumping her fist in encouragement.
Li Xiaofei responded with a victory sign. The locker room fell quiet again. Chen Fei turned on the equipment and began projecting pre-match information on one of the screens.
"We\'ve already gone over the details of Lanshan High School\'s team, but I need to emphasize a few key points again." He began. "There’s not much to say about solo mode; it’s all about personal strength."
"But in the team battle, you must remember one thing, the soul of Lanshan High School’s team is their beastmaster, Zhou Yunong. He’s been the best beastmaster for two consecutive seasons. If the system randomly selects a map with a large number of star beasts, you must find a way to eliminate Zhou Yunong as quickly as possible. If you give him enough time to develop, he’ll turn every star beast on the map into his ally."
"Additionally, Lanshan High School\'s two main fighters, Zhou Heng and Zhou Mi, are both at the Realm Limit Breaking stage. Last season, they were ranked third and sixth on the combat rankings, so they’re formidable opponents. I’ve heard they’ve recently undergone new martial arts surgery, so their strength has likely increased even further. Their medic, Dong Bao, and weapons specialist, Lao Shen, are also at the Limit Breaking Realm."
Chen Fei went over everything in great detail. But Li Xiaofei wasn’t really listening. To him, it didn’t matter.
He could confidently say, "Give me one chance to compete, and I’ll make your dream come true."
At this point, he knew he could easily crush any high school opponent.
***
An hour later, the lights of Lanshan Stadium were fully lit, making it as bright as day.
"The match is about to begin..."
"Both teams have entered the preparation zone."
"The starting lineups haven\'t been announced yet, but theoretically, neither side is expected to change their starters."
"This match is crucial."
"For Red Flag High School, this is the most severe challenge on their underdog journey, as their opponent is one of the true prestigious schools, and currently the one in the best form with an undefeated record."
"I agree, but Lanshan High School can\'t afford to be complacent either. Red Flag High School has Li Xiaofei, the super rookie who ranks second in popularity across the entire high school league. In fact, many believe that even Xiong Zhigang, who is currently ranked first, might not be able to defeat Li Xiaofei."
"This match also marks the first time that Red Flag High School\'s two top talents, Li Xiaofei and Yan Chiyu, will be teaming up."
"Yes, their first collaboration."
