Start with Awakening the Spirit

Looking at Li Mengyao's leaving figure, Jiang Xiao shook his head helplessly.

Just now, he was thinking of saying sorry to Li Mengyao, but he was a bit harsh.

But people didn't want to talk to him, and Jiang Xiao naturally didn't want to be hot-faced and cold-blooded.

After sitting in the lobby of the player room for a while, Jiang Xiao received the news that Father Jiang and the others had withdrawn.

"Just right! Let's have a meal outside, and then go home and have a good rest!" Jiang Xiao thought, and then took his things home.

After two consecutive battles today, Jiang Xiao felt a little tired due to the constant tension, so he simply left early to recuperate his energy.

After leaving the county gymnasium, Jiang Xiao walked on the street and received many people's attention.

In the battle, Jiang Xiao defeated his opponents time and time again to advance, which attracted the attention of many people.

Being one of the 24 contestants who qualified for the promotion, Jiang Xiao is quite famous in Yulin County!

To avoid being looked at as a monkey, Jiang Xiao had to put on a mask—well, a mask with a pattern of an unshaven chin on it.

Star chasing these days is really scary!

Outside the county gymnasium, there are places to eat, drink, and play everywhere, making it dizzying.

Suddenly, Jiang Xiao saw many people surrounding a cold drink vendor in front of him.

Jiang Xiao walked forward and found that it was a game arcade with several new slot machines.

After standing there for a while, Jiang Xiao understood the gameplay rules of this slot machine. There are five rolling modules on the slot machine, and the patterns of each rolling module are some quasi-god Pokémon.

One hundred yuan a game currency!

One game currency can be played once!

After starting, the patterns of the five rolling modules will change rapidly, and then about 30 seconds later, the patterns will lock one by one.

If you open four identical quasi-gods, you can get a large doll, and it is also in this quasi-god elf style.

If you draw five identical quasi-gods, you can get the ultimate prize, an elf egg, an elf egg with an edible certificate.

It is precisely because the ultimate prize is the elf egg that there are so many people in this arcade.

Jiang Xiao wasn't too interested. Games were all about making money. Even though there were so many people watching, most of them were probably just asking for help.

After that, Jiang Xiao left here, ate some snacks at a nearby stall, hurried back home, fed the pink butterflies and flying mantises, and then went to bed early.

………………

Early the next morning, Jiang Xiao came to the gymnasium, and there were already a large number of vendors operating outside.

Jiang Xiao bought some random things and walked into the player room lobby while eating.

The game started at eight o'clock, and now it's just 07:30. Many players have already come to the player room lobby to chat with people they know.

Jiang Xiao walked into the player room lobby. Some people's eyes lit up and Cheng Heli walked over.

"Jiang Xiao, when did you conquer the flying mantis?" Cheng Heli asked curiously.

"Ten days ago!"

Jiang Xiao glanced at Cheng Heli, put down the meat bun in his hand, smiled and replied.

"you are great!"

Cheng Heli gave Jiang Xiao a thumbs up.

She is still working hard to cultivate her natal elf, and Jiang Xiaodu has already contracted the first elf.

And it’s a flying mantis!

The official racial value of Flying Mantis announced by the Elf Alliance is 500. It has high speed and high attack. It is indeed a very good insect-type Pokémon.

Among the known insect-type Pokémon, Flying Mantis ranks among the top ten!

"Your bay leaves are great too!"

Everyone carried the sedan chair, Cheng Heli respected him, and Jiang Xiao didn't mind praising her.

Respect each other, don’t shudder!

Next, Jiang Xiao and Cheng Heli talked about some knowledge about elf cultivation.

Soon, it was time for the competition, and host Zheng Guotao's voice came through the speakers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, friends who have come from afar, welcome to the Yulin County Gymnasium. This is the venue of the 'Yulin County Newcomer King Competition'..."

"I am the host Zheng Guotao!"

"Yesterday, after a day of fierce competition among our contestants, 24 contestants finally entered the third round of promotion!"

Zheng Guotao Balabala said a lot.

And Jiang Xiao also roughly understood the rules of the third round of promotions.

24 people→→12 people!

Four arenas are held at the same time, and each arena is divided into three groups. Each group's battle time is half an hour, and it will end before 09:30!

"Okay! Let's look at the big screen!"

Zheng Guotao stood on the stage, pointed at the huge screen above the county gymnasium, which had pictures of 24 players, and then started the match.

Soon, the system matching is completed!

Jiang Xiao quickly found his opponent!

Arena No. [-], the third match, the opponent is a young man wearing glasses, a blue straw hat, and holding a bug net in his hand.

The boy’s name is Lin Yixiu! !

Jiang Xiao turned to look at Lin Yixiu and saw Lin Yixiu staring at him with burning eyes.

Jiang Xiao showed a warm smile, and Lin Yixiu immediately lowered his head in embarrassment, with a hint of pink appearing on his fair and tender face.

"Insect-catching boy!"

Jiang Xiao murmured, Lin Yixiu was also an insect-type trainer, and Jiang Xiao had also paid attention to Lin Yixiu in previous games.

Lin Yixiu has no natal Pokémon, but a contracted Pokémon, a Butterfly!

Lin Yixiu's Bada Die is pretty good and has mastered three skills: telekinesis, silk spinning, and hardening. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to reach the third round of promotions.

After glancing at Lin Yixiu, Jiang Xiao looked away, and then noticed that the players in the first game had already stood up and walked towards the arena.

In the third round of the promotion competition, the intensity of the battle increased rapidly. To reach the third round, the trainer's command ability, the strength of the elves, and the skills they mastered were all very good.

Every battle can arouse cheers from the audience. Some are crushing games, some are evenly matched, and some are desperate counterattacks...

The audience was delighted!

No matter how intense the battle is, there will eventually be a winner and a loser, and the first two battles have also come to an end.

"The next thing to be played is the battle between player Lin Yixiu and player Jiang Xiao!"

"The rules of this challenge are 1vs1 battle, and player Lin Yixiu will start the game!"

"I declare, the battle begins!"

The referee announces the start of the fight.

Jiang Xiao and Lin Yixiu appeared on the stage. They were speechless. After the referee announced the start of the battle, a white light fell on the ring.

"mum!!"

Lin Yixiu's butterfly flies in the wind.

In the sunshine, dots of scale powder sprinkled from Baddie's body.

"The different-colored Bada butterfly looks better than the ordinary Bada butterfly!"

Looking at the Bada butterfly flying in mid-air, a strange color flashed in Jiang Xiao's eyes.

The Bada butterfly has a large base in the wild.

Due to genetic mutation, there are naturally more flashing butterflies, and the shining butterfly individuals that can survive in the wild are naturally more outstanding.

But in fact, more shining individuals have died in the wild when they were still green caterpillars.

"You come up too, Flying Mantis!"

"Kaba!!"

The flying mantis landed on the ring, the scythe hands crossed each other, and sparks flashed from the scythe blade.

Lin Yixiu's eyes suddenly brightened when he saw Jiang Xiao's flying mantis.
