Epic Transformation: The Dragon Master Who Defies the Divine

Chapter 94: No Regrets

Under everyone's gaze.

Fang Tairan's dejected figure slowly walked down from the stage.

His face showed a bit of daze.

It was clear that this top scholar from the Eastern Ling Province had been defeated by a peer for the first time.

And he was defeated so cleanly.

The most crucial part was that he didn't even know how his longsword was broken by his opponent.

That was a level 30, diamond-quality weapon!

In terms of hardness, it wouldn't even be damaged under the full bombardment of a level 40 second-turn magic king!

However, in front of Qin Fan, this sharp and sturdy longsword shattered before even reaching him.

It broke.

The moment his longsword broke, Fang Tairan felt like his sword heart almost shattered along with it.

"Who would have thought that someone as carefree and battle-crazy as Fang Tairan would be overshadowed by Qin Fan..."

A teacher on the podium sighed.

"Do you think Fang Tairan might never recover from this?"

Another teacher expressed concern.

"Don't worry, the hearts of these prodigies are not as fragile as you think."

"Moreover, failure is definitely a good thing for these prodigies who are used to smooth sailing."

"The earlier they taste failure, the sooner they can realize their weaknesses and shortcomings, and thus improve!"

"Besides..."

"If they don't taste hardship now, when they enter the real rift battlefield in the future and face those terrifying creatures from other planes, failing at that time could cost them their lives!"

The dean of the Combat Academy, Liu Jinhua, said in a deep voice.

With these words.

The other deans and many teachers also became slightly serious.

Indeed.

At least failure could make these arrogant prodigies realize that 'there are always people better than you'.

"That's exactly why I had Luo Hao, Xu Niannian, and Bai Wushuang challenge Qin Fan together!"

"Luo Hao, who looks down on others because he is the top scholar of Fengtian Province!"

"Xu Niannian, who thinks highly of herself because of her chaos magic talent!"

"And Bai Wushuang, who thinks he's invincible among his peers just because he contracted a dragon by luck!"

"In terms of talent and character, these three are far behind Qin Fan!"

Dean Liu Jinhua's words were quite harsh.

But the other deans and all the teachers fully agreed.

Qin Fan had contracted top-level dragon pets!

Yet, despite this.

He wasn't arrogant or condescending.

In contrast, these provincial prodigies.

Each one was arrogantly superior!!

They indeed needed a wake-up call!

……

"All of you, come at once, don't give me any rest time."

Looking at the three prodigies with complex expressions and slight hesitation below the stage, Qin Fan still indifferently gestured for them to continue!

After experiencing a crushing one-versus-seven victory.

Then defeating the top scholar of the Eastern Ling Province, Fang Tairan.

This Dragon Master showed no sign of exhaustion, and the magical aura around him was still boiling.

This meant that his mana was hardly consumed!

He had clearly cast two large-scale ice and fire spells in the first battle, shocking everyone!

It was well known.

The more powerful, larger, and higher-grade the skill, the more mana it consumes.

If it were another mage of the same level, after casting those two large AOE spells, their mana would have been reduced by at least 70%!

But this guy...

Not only was he strong, but his endurance was also incredible!

Monster!!

In fact, the reason Qin Fan showed no signs of exhaustion was naturally due to his intelligence attribute far exceeding this level.

The higher the intelligence attribute, the greater the maximum mana value and the faster the mana regeneration.

1400 intelligence, which mage at this level could possess?

At this moment.

Urged by Qin Fan's indifferent voice.

The three prodigies' faces instantly turned grim, but one had to admit...

Their eyes indeed showed a strong fear!!

Luo Hao and Xu Niannian even felt a fear they didn't want to admit!

Because they often sparred with Fang Tairan.

Naturally, they knew his strength.

But seeing Fang Tairan, who usually fought them evenly, easily defeated by Qin Fan, was hard for them to accept.

Bai Wushuang, on the other hand, felt no fear, only some apprehension.

After all, as long as he had his dragon, he believed he wouldn't lose!

"Hurry up and get on the stage! Are you afraid of losing?"

"Yeah... Don't waste time. I want to watch this match and then challenge others."

"Dean Liu Jinhua has spoken, what are you waiting for? Get on the stage! Didn't you look down on our Southern Province's top scholar before?"

"......"

While the three prodigies hesitated.

Other freshmen in the audience started mocking and urging them.

These students, like Qin Fan, were also from the Southern Province.

For some time.

Qin Fan had been under suspicion, and even freshmen from the Southern Province were ridiculed together.

Things like 'all students from the Southern Province are weak, a waste got the top scholar', 'this year's freshmen from the Southern Province are the worst' and so on...

These brainless comments frequently appeared.

This made the freshmen from the Southern Province indignant.

They had been holding in their anger.

Now, Qin Fan had finally risen like a dark horse.

Naturally, the freshmen from the Southern Province mocked and vented their frustration.

"Damn it..."

Listening to the harsh comments around him, Luo Hao, a young master who had enjoyed others' admiration all his life, couldn't hold back anymore.

After angrily cursing, he stepped onto the stage with a gloomy face.

Xu Niannian did the same.

Only Bai Wushuang stood with his arms crossed, merely sneering and not moving.

While the other prodigies were already dreading Qin Fan.

Bai Wushuang, however, remained extremely confident in himself.

This confidence naturally stemmed from the small dragon perched on his shoulder.

"Bai Wushuang, why aren't you stepping up?"

At this moment.

The referee teacher asked.

Bai Wushuang sneered arrogantly, shaking his head slowly, "Teacher, this arena is too small. My beast pet dragon can't fully showcase its true power, so I'd like to request a switch to a more expansive secret realm battlefield."

"I admit, Qin Fan's personal strength is superior to mine."

"But I'm a Beastmaster! My battle style relies on my beast pet!"

"I can't be expected to abandon my strongest asset, can I?"

"If that's the case, I, Bai Wushuang, will simply forfeit."

As Bai Wushuang finished speaking.

The surrounding freshmen nodded in agreement.

Bai Wushuang wasn't making excuses.

It was widely accepted that most Beastmasters were personally weak, relying on their beast pets as their primary weapons in battle.

Though the arena was already large.

Once the four-winged Wind Thunder Dragon revealed its true battle form, its size would likely exceed the arena's capacity.

The energy shield protecting the arena might even be shattered by this dragon.

And making Bai Wushuang fight barehanded against the domineering Qin Fan was indeed unfair.

"Alright! The battlefield can be changed!"

The referee teacher nodded in agreement.

Then he gave a command.

The staff nodded, and a few minutes later, a secret realm portal appeared in the arena out of thin air.

"Enter directly. The space inside can easily accommodate not just one dragon, but even a hundred!"

The referee teacher said.

In response.

Qin Fan didn't mind; in fact...

He welcomed it!!

The two little ones nestled in his arms had long been eager to move.

Perfect timing!

Hadn't people been speculating whether Qin Fan had a dragon?

Today!

He would let these shortsighted people see for themselves!

He, Qin Fan, was the first Dragon Master to contract a holy dragon in history!

And also...

To show Bai Wushuang that his little dragon was not worthy of being arrogant in front of his two baby dragons!

Soon...

The four highly anticipated individuals stepped through the secret realm portal.

In the next second.

They found themselves in a vast plain battlefield.

The surroundings were endlessly spacious, with no end in sight.

Outside the secret realm.

With the staff's adjustments.

A holographic projection screen composed of countless intertwined beams of light appeared before everyone.

The screen displayed a clear view of the plain battlefield.

At this moment.

Countless gazes were fixed on this holographic screen.

Even some freshmen engaged in PK couldn't help but stop their attacks and stare intently at the screen!

Chen Wei, Feng Yuanyuan, Luo Tao, and other losers had been healed by the priests and returned to the battlefield.

But their expressions were extremely grim and ugly.

Especially...

Some freshmen from the Southern Province deliberately taunted them as they passed by.

"Bark! Keep barking!"

"Didn't you say our Southern Province's top scholar was useless? Why did you lose when you teamed up?"

"One against seven and still got counter-killed! Do you even know how to play?"

"......"

"Damn it..."

Chen Wei, Feng Yuanyuan, Luo Tao, and others ground their teeth in anger at these words!

But they found themselves unable to retort.

Their faces burned with shame!

Remembering the things they had said and their previous attitudes, they wished they could dig a hole and hide!

Standing beside them, Su Rou sighed deeply, her face full of bitter smiles.

Her choice... was ultimately wrong.

But there was no remedy for regret in this world.
