Chapter 203: Chapter 202: Tactical Analyst (1/3) Chapter 203: Chapter 202: Tactical Analyst (1/3) Following Su City University’s victory in the preliminary competition, the latest videos and photos were quickly uploaded to the qualifier’s forum.
Those who hadn’t had the chance to attend were beating their chests in regret, as several photos quickly rose to the top of the popular posts.
An individual claiming to be a photography enthusiast had taken several sets of live photos.
One of the photos showed Shao Zifeng squatting on the ground, caressing a fawn’s head with a face full of adoration, while the fawn’s neck bent to nuzzle his hand, looking utterly content.
Since the photo was taken against the light, their silhouettes seed shrouded in a hazy Holy Light, creating a dreamlike aesthetic.
Another popular photo captured Casar reaching out his hand, with the Snow Feather Owl poised to take flight, its gaze sharp.
The last photo was a candid of Li Yiming amidst battle; before combat, he was always yes-man like a little pup, but as soon as the fight started, his whole deanor changed, transforming the pup into a fierce little wolf dog.
Compared to the previous shaky video due to jostling, the high-definition photos greatly satisfied the netizens who hadn’t watched the match, as the comnts section refreshed at a visibly fast pace.

Unlike the aningless revelry of the netizens, the atmosphere inside the business conference room on the top floor of Yundu Hotel was dim, with a video of Su City University’s battle being projected on the screen.
The mood in the eting room was heavy, with the faint light from the screen flickering on and off.
Gou Li and Zhou Qing, who had already finished their matches, were seated below, with the tactical analysts from their teams beside them.
“Pause, rewind two seconds, synchronize the tilines of the two videos,” soone commanded.
The accompanying staff hurriedly synchronized the two videos on the screen as instructed.
The frozen fras of the two videos focused on the gleaming light in the deer’s eyes and the paw of the carrion hyena being ensnared by vines that had suddenly sprung from the ground.
“Teacher Shen, is there a problem here?” Gou Li asked after watching for a while without noticing any issues.
Pushing up his glasses, Teacher Shen stood up and took the remote control from the hand of a staff mber: “Look at the timing here. The white-spotted deer turned its head at 3.5 seconds after the fight started, and the vines entangled the carrion hyena at 3.7 seconds.” He paused for a mont: “It ans that it took less than 0.2 seconds to detect the target and release the skill.”
Gou Li and Zhou Qing exchanged glances; they were not teachers specializing in research analysis, so they were not very sensitive to this precise, second-by-second analysis.
Teacher Shen saw that the two did not understand and felt sowhat frustrated. He detested discussing these profound topics with layn. Compared to this second-by-second analysis, he preferred setting up tactics for students.
Seeing this, another Tactical Analyst stood up with a chuckle and continued, “We’ll talk about this part later. Let’s keep watching.”
The video continued, and after the Carrion hyena’s paw got tripped up, due to the huge inertia from the skill enhancent, its whole body spun and flew forward.
A young man’s voice ca through the loudspeaker at that mont, “The deer uses ‘Cross’.”
“Pause!”
Gou Li did not rush to ask questions this ti but instead frowned and carefully examined the still fra on the screen.
In the fra, Shao Zifeng hadn’t finished saying the word “cross” when the green gleam in the little deer’s jade-like pupils flickered, and two Wood Thorns full of thorny barbs had already taken shape.
In another video, the Carrion hyena adjusted its posture in midair from spinning to striking, a faint white light emanating from its sturdy forepaw, while its Combat Training Master, Du Yuyu, who was panicked due to it being tripped and sent flying, had not yet regained composure.
“Do you see the difference here?” Teacher Yang, who was much younger than Teacher Shen, asked with a smile while looking at Gou Li and Zhou Qing.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, he pointed to the Carrion hyena with a laser pen, “This Carrion hyena possesses a rare talent called ‘Opportunist,’ which allows it to instantly cast a skill when it’s at a disadvantage.”
He then slid the progress bar slightly forward, “According to this student’s rate of speech, it took him 1.29 seconds to complete the sentence. Pay attention, at the mont he issued the command, the Carrion hyena’s ‘Opportunist’ had not yet activated, and it was still in free fall.”
“From the mont he began issuing the command to say the word ‘cross,’ it took 1.02 seconds. By then, the Nine-colored Deer’s Cross Wood Thorns had already ford, while the Carrion hyena’s ‘Tearing Claw Strike,’ which was in the state of instant skill activation, had just been launched.”
“Do you know what this ans?”
Even Gou Li and Zhou Qing, who weren’t so sensitive to combat details, felt the issue was complicated when several tilines were listed separately.
Zhou Qing frowned, “Does it an that he and his creature have a good rapport and that he is very familiar with the Carrion hyena’s talents?”
Teacher Yang shook his head, “If he were only familiar with the Carrion hyena, I wouldn’t have needed to bring it up separately. The fear is that he may be soone who has been through nurous battles or soone with an exceptionally sensitive combat instinct.”
“Moreover, his deer’s skill-casting speed is too fast, unnaturally so. The physical skill ‘Tearing Claw Strike’ under the state of instant skill activation should be faster than an elental skill, yet its Vine Strangulation took only a fraction of a second, which has already broken the academic community’s definition of instant casting.”
“Actually, what worries the most is not just this.” He said and slid the progress bar to the very end.
From the screen, one could see that the ferocious and aggressive Carrion hyena had completely lost its initial bravado. It tucked its tail and hid behind Du Yuyu, wailing and holding its head, not even daring to glance at the little deer.
It all seed sowhat absurd to everyone.
“I’m not clear on what happened inside the Vine Prison, but sothing that could scare a fierce mid-sized beast like this must an this Nine-colored Deer is far from ordinary.”
It was then that Zhou Qing suddenly spoke, “Then Teachers Shen and Yang, could this deer be one undergoing ancestral evolution?”
Teacher Shen slowly shook his head, “You should know that ancestral evolution is unique. Why would you ask such an absurd question? The Nine-colored Immortal Deer, ranked fifth among the twelve national guardian beasts of Great Xia, is not dead yet.”
Zhou Qing, feeling rebuked, sat back down and did not speak again.
