The referees' Beast Taming team took the incapacitated Thunderous Dragon away.
The Weather Cactus Beasts slowly recovered their spirits, erging from the water with a head and observing Taotie from a distance.
Taotie, having recovered so spirit, released Water Devouring to heal its injuries.
The blasted ss of wounds on its back gradually healed.
Although its resistance to paralysis and other abnormal states had greatly increased, it only gained a control-immune effect similar to an indomitable body.
But it did not achieve immunity to damage.
Just as Taotie was striving to heal its injuries,
Several needles flew in from a distance, landing precisely on Taotie's face.
Then, they were bounced off by its thick armor.
They fell into the water, causing ripples.
"..."
The atmosphere on the field fell into silence.
All eyes, as if by agreent, turned toward the source of the flying needles.
The section of the Weather Cactus Beast's body that was above the water, facing towards Taotie, was sowhat bald, with its spines missing.
Taotie narrowed its eyes.
The Weather Cactus Beast slowly raised a section of its body.
"biu～"
Two needles shot near Taotie's eyes.
A few seconds later, Taotie, stepping on the body of the Weather Cactus Beast, smacked its huge paws up and down against its body.
Little guy, you sure are brave, huh?
As the Thunderous Dragon was eliminated, and Taotie maintained a healthy state, the competition was essentially over.
With the elimination of the last beast from Hanhai Middle School, the announcer's voice rang out on the field: "The champions of this High School Cup are from Shu State—Qinglong Eighth Middle School!"
In the spectator stands, Chen Lingya watched Taotie's mighty presence on the field, her face revealing a doting smile.
At the sa ti, far away, in Qinglong Eighth Middle School, thunderous cheers erupted.
...
Although the high school division of the High School Competition had ended,
its impact did not stop there.
In a certain secretive eting,
Representatives of various powers were vying for this year's fresh talents.
"If you ask , we should give this kid to the military. You've seen it—his beast broke the constraints of size. On the battlefield, it's a massive weapon!"
"Not only the military can raise massive weapons, and with the situation being so tense, it would be too dangerous to leave him with you."
"How can you see a rainbow without a little rain? What we need are talents that can stand in the lilight, we're not short of one who works in the shadows," stated the military representative with implied aning.
"Heh, you're not short of talents in the lilight either. Last year, all four mbers from the winning team of Longshang Desert Middle School joined your military, and with the talents you've selected internally, your military's younger generation isn't lacking in strength."
The white-bearded elder sitting aside broke through the ssy atmosphere, "Chen Xing has already taken our university's Associate Professor Han Yuning as his ntor. He's definitely going to join Jiuzhou University. Can you please focus on so other students? It's as if this year's only talent is Chen Xing."
"Indeed, there are quite a few other talents."
"That was during peaceti; it's during tis of war that the military is the fastest place to grow!"
Seeing the trend of another argunt brewing, the white-bearded old man interrupted them, "I think you all don't need to argue, don't forget Han Yuning's identity."
Upon hearing this, the military representative was stunned, then a smile appeared on his face.
"I did overlook that for a mont. It seems Chen Xing doesn't really need us to worry about him."
The color drained from the face of the civil official representative across from him.
He too rembered that Han Yuning's father was that person in the military.
"Joining your political departnt may not necessarily be a good thing for him; the waters are too muddy there," the white-bearded old man said indifferently.
The civil official representative didn't retort, although he wanted to fight for more talents for his own faction, so truths were undeniable.
"Moreover, I think Song Yanming's future isn't necessarily bleak. His Beast Taming Thunder Sound Dragon also has a rare evolutionary path. It's just that due to insufficient Energy Level, it has not evolved yet. Once it evolves, it might not be inferior to the Water Devouring Greedy Crocodile."
...
After the competition, Chen Xing had dinner with his family.
After dinner, he rushed to the second event, a dinner with his school team mbers.
That evening, several bonuses were consecutively deposited into his account.
Eighteen million from the Shu State Education Departnt, twelve million eight hundred thousand from the Jinzhou Education Departnt, five million from the Jinzhou New District Education Departnt.
There was also the championship team reward from the university cup, totaling one hundred million in prize money.
After consulting with his teammates, eighty million of this one hundred million was paid directly to Chen Xing, while the remaining twenty million were kept in a common fund for the school team.
As the drinks flowed, Chen Xing received a notification of transactions in his account.
After seeing the numbers and payers, Chen Xing was astonished, "Why did you guys give such a large share of the prize money?"
"We talked it over. You played a decisive role in securing the championship, and honestly, even I, as the coach, didn't contribute much," Kuang Shiyi said with emotion.
He looked at Chen Xing, "So you take all the money. Otherwise, they won't feel right about it."
"Besides, they've gained a lot already. Being mbers of the champion team in the university cup is a significant asset in their lives. So people can't buy this status with money."
"Yeah, junior brother, just take it. I really wouldn't feel right taking any of this money; it burns my hands," Tong Xuhua said with a wry smile.
Tian Xuechuan nodded repeatedly, "My dad ssaged , saying he wants to invite you to be our company's spokesperson, offering you an image endorsent fee of three hundred million per year... Don't think it's too little. This isn't an exclusive endorsent; you're free to take on other endorsents, and we won't mind."
"Yeah, yeah, my dad also told about it," Tong Xuhua nodded repeatedly.
"Does your family want to contract so land? For example, contracting so forest land in the suburbs. There are so quotas available recently, and if your family is interested, I can assure you the best internal price," Tong Xuhua suggested.
"Recently, a new Secret Realm appeared in our new district... This Secret Realm is only a projection and hasn't truly arrived yet. Currently, most of the land near the Secret Realm has been requisitioned, but there is still so forest land available.
If your family is interested, you can contract a piece of forest land. Later it could be converted into a comrcial street. Lands near Secret Realms tend to appreciate quickly.
But right now, since the Secret Realm hasn't arrived yet, the land's value has not increased much, and it's quite cheap."
As the gazes of a few fell upon her, Wu Ju spoke calmly, "Are you interested in Beast Taming breeding? My family is recently developing the Azure Dragon District Secret Realm. If you're interested, we could partner up to open a Beast Taming breeding center."
At those words, Chen Xing's eyes lit up.
"Your family runs a Beast Taming breeding center?"
"We have that industry... Why do you ask?" Wu Ju was sowhat intimidated by the shining eyes of Chen Xing.
She muttered to herself, it seed that ntioning Beast Taming breeding had excited the junior brother.
Could it be that he was really interested in Beast Taming breeding?
Having won the university cup championship, instead of becoming a famous and wealthy Beast Tar, was he actually interested in Beast Taming breeding?
