The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast-Chapter 468 - 424: Seven-Star Spectators and the Tournament Schedule

The crowd was treading on the wide ramp leading to the center of the venue, while ahead, representative teams from all over Fenghai Province were already neatly arranged according to a specific formation.

Looking across, there were a full fifty-seven teams.

No matter which of the three major cities hosted the provincial competition, the "Three Dragons Meeting" was a staple event every year, symbolizing the arrival of all participating contestants.

Including the seven teams from Zhen Sheng City and Nanhai City behind, a total of sixty-four teams, or one hundred and ninety-two young Spirit Masters, gathered here. Each one radiated confidence and a spirited fighting intent, their varied school uniforms and banners weaving a tapestry of youth and strength.

The cheers from the audience were like tangible sound waves crashing against the eardrums, while a giant light screen above clearly reflected their entrance scenes.

"Experimental Middle School! It’s Lin Guang!"

"They’ve finally arrived! The dark horse from Zhen Sheng City!"

"Go for it!!"

At the moment the Experimental Middle School team entered the venue, Lin Guang’s name was shouted by some spectators, with various voices mixed together, expressing support, curiosity, and scrutiny.

"Alright, dear audience! The camera is now on the representative team from Experimental Middle School in Zhen Sheng City! Leading the team at the forefront is the highly anticipated super rookie of this league, contestant Lin Guang!"

A clear and pleasant female voice, imbued with professional demeanor, resonated throughout the venue via the amplified spiritual artifact.

At the commentary table, a female commentator with delicate makeup and a composed demeanor was speaking confidently into the spiritual microphone before her. The nameplate on the table read "Xing Yue." With her professional commentary skills and approachable style, she enjoyed high popularity in Nanhai City.

"Contestant Lin Guang once clinched the championship in the family trials and demonstrated astounding strength in the previous points competition. His performance is undoubtedly a highlight of this year’s provincial tournament! We anticipate that he will continue to dazzle us!"

Lin Guang maintained a calm expression, his gaze sweeping over the neatly arranged teams, among which were some familiar formidable opponents seen in records or personally known.

Most of the opponents had participated in the Celestial Ladder Mountain trial, with only a few exceptions.

In the next moment, Lin Guang’s eyes widened slightly.

As if sensing his gaze, a golden figure in the crowd slightly turned his head.

That was a youth with golden hair, as handsome and perfect as sunshine itself, akin to a golden flash, giving him a courteous smile, his golden eyes carrying a touch of curiosity and exploration.

Yin Family, Yin Long.

Number 111 [Rising Dragon Transformation]

It seemed to be just an incidental meeting of eyes, without any aggressive probing or testing. Their dark golden and golden pupils briefly met, then gradually withdrew.

Yin Long nodded and quickly retracted his gaze.

Lin Guang also nodded, similarly not paying much mind, choosing not to overly focus on observing his opponents.

After all, these teams would eventually meet on the battlefield.

Even Yin Long would not be an exception.

Over-focusing now would only waste mental energy meaninglessly. It was better to conserve strength and be ready for every battle to come.

He could feel that his partners and teammates shared the same thought, with each of them holding sharp and focused gazes.

At the commentary table, Xing Yue appeared excited, though her voice wasn’t excessively raised, rather it carried a sense of informative introduction.

"Alright, with Nanhai City’s ’Nansheng Middle School’ making their entrance, all sixty-four teams competing today are now fully assembled!"

"Each team represents the pride of their cities and the hope of the younger generation! In the upcoming competitions, they will showcase the ingenuity, courage, and bonds of Spirit Masters for us!"

"Now, let us turn the camera upwards to that misty, floating immortal island."

"Many legendary figures have already graced the scene."

"Of course, some strong figures are burdened with important responsibilities, guarding the Outer Battlefield against the threat of the Demon Race, unable to be present, but they have also, through special means, entrusted a strand of their Spiritual Power to their respective Beast Kings or Tokens, so that they may cross space and the Boundary Wall, observing this grand event and paying attention to the growth of the younger generation."

In the next moment, the light screen above the stadium changed, displaying a vast floating island, shrouded in clouds and towering peaks.

This floating island was clearly a territory only accessible to the strongest of the strong, with every peak’s summit occupied by a formidable presence that exerted great pressure.

On the screen appeared a vast, clear dragon as if carved from the purest glass, with starlight and moonlight penetrating its body, refracting a fantastical rainbow aura.

The current patriarch of the Yin Family, Yin Tianxing’s partner, a Tier Seven pinnacle [Tianxuan Li Long].

—The host specially emphasized, it’s Li Long, not Chi Long.

On a neighboring peak, there lay an Ink Jade Qilin, its ink-colored jade-like scales emitting a deep luster, with clouds appearing around its four hooves, the single horn atop its head exuding an aura that could suppress all, casually glancing at the screen with an indifferent snort, seemingly uninterested in the young generation’s battles.

The patriarch of the Tu Family, Tu Guishen True Man’s partner, the Ink Jade Qilin, ranked Tier Seven.

Next, the partners of three sect leaders made their sequential appearances.

The Great Dream Sect Leader, Zhao Feimeng True Man’s [Soul-Introducing Dream Butterfly], a fairy butterfly entirely composed of enchanting brilliance, its form ethereal and majestic, its wings suffused with indescribably splendid colors, like a kaleidoscope.
