Lotus Sunâs ability to control her spirit sword had already reached perfection, to the point that she could regularly open up a sword spirit space as well as summon her sword spirit even if her sword wasnât with her.
Lotus Sun was the only person in No. 60 Highâs elite stream who already had a sword spirit. This was what everyone currently understood⦠Of course, this knowledge obviously didnât take Wang Ling and the others into account.
Lotus Sun planned to summon Mysterious Sea to send them up in a column of water, so she definitely had to summon Mysterious Seaâs true sword spirit form.
And this would actually be everyoneâs first time seeing Mysterious Seaâs appearance.
âHas anyone ever seen Classmate Lotus Sunâs sword spirit?â Li Youyue asked curiously.
Mysterious Sea⦠It sounded like the name of an uncle, but a sword spirit took after its master, and its specific appearance was based on what its master preferred.
Could it be that Classmate Lotus Sun was actually a secret uncle fan?
Li Youyue didnât think it was impossible.
In an era bursting with fresh young meat, a lot of girls were actually tired of male stars with fair faces, high nose bridges, straight eyebrows and double eyelids. Conversely, the suave uncle look was even more attractive!
But everyone else also had their own ideas about what Mysterious Sea looked like.
Hero Guo: âI havenât seen Mysterious Sea either, but it shouldnât have dead fish eyes, right?â
Hearing this, Wang Lingâs eyelids twitched violently, as he felt that there was something implied in the words.
Lotus Sun deliberately kept them guessing. She closed her eyes and began the summoning in earnest. Like everyone said, she had never revealed Mysterious Seaâs real appearance in public, and had sometimes even gotten Mysterious Sea to disguise itself for its own protection.
But this was a national event, and so many people were watching. Lotus Sun felt that there was no longer any need to hide.
She was the captain of the team this time. In the face of the initial show of strength by Zhu Hanyun, captain of Titan High, and Gao Tianming, captain of Devil-Subduing High, she naturally wouldnât admit defeat easily.
In terms of momentum at least, she wouldnât be the first to lose!
âBoundless sea, eastward tideâ¦â The incantation was followed by a ray of blue light that started to glow behind Lotus Sun.
For a moment, it was as if everyone could smell the salty scent of the rolling sea; it really was as if they were next to the sea and could vaguely hear the sound of the rolling waves.
The teachers maintaining order on the field noticed the activity here and were astonished.
A Foundation Establishment student had actually produced a sword spirit?
It was unfathomable to them. Moreover, judging from the aura, this sword spirit clearly hadnât been formed recently; this was an old sword spirit with a very âmatureâ aura.
It was very easy to discern whether a sword spirit was a newborn or not; a newly conceived sword spirit was just like a newborn baby, and would give off a âmilkyâ scent.
Mysterious Sea didnât have this scent.
After the blue light glowed for a while, a girl in a sea-blue dress fell from the sky; even her hair was dark blue with silver streaks, and she radiated a youthful vitality.
Looking at Mysterious Seaâs appearance, everyone was enlightened.
So, Mysterious Seaâs true form was that of a magical girl?
This was a reasonable outcome. After all, Mysterious Sea had been conceived early, and Lotus Sun hadnât been very old at that time. The magical girl transformation was something every girl had probably imagined at one point in their childhood. Looking at Mysterious Seaâs appearance, Wang Ling instantly recalled the very nostalgic âClow Cards.â
It was something that people of Wang Lingâs age would remember from their childhood, at least.
âThen, next, please lend me your spiritual energy, everyone!â Lotus Sun smiled. The two girls, Liu Qingyi and Li Youyue, were the first to step forward and grab her hands. One after another, each of the boys put their hand on the shoulder of the person in front of them.
This was in fact the pose that two chuuni kids who read wuxia novels would act out to pass strength to each other, which was also indescribably nostalgic.
Super Chen felt a little bashful. He put one hand on Li Youyueâs right shoulder and covered his face with the other.
âEverybody, stand firm.â After a few moments of preparation, Lotus Sun repeated the incantation again. Tremendous waves of spirit power burst forth from Mysterious Sea, and a huge column of water bubbled up like a fountain under the feet of the No. 60 High students.
And then, boom! With a loud bang, a huge column of water shot into the sky!
âIt worked!â Lotus Sun was thrilled! She had thought that the combined spiritual energy of ten people might not be enough, and had never expected it to be so effective!
Soon, No. 60 Highâs water column also drew the gazes of countless people. The students climbing the stairs were attracted by the water column⦠and then were horrified.
âWTF? Which high school is this? The school uniform is so ugly! It even has the word âELITEâ on the backâ¦â
âWhy does it look like No. 60 High?â Someone tried to make out the figures of the No. 60 High group who flew past the window.
âYouâre right, itâs No. 60 High! Thatâs where Odd Zhuo graduated from! But I remember that their overall ranking isnât very high. How can they be this amazing?â Someone was puzzled.
All the students on the stairs made âlemon[1]â sounds.
Someone scoffed. âAmazing? Their captain is Lotus Sun; sheâs the only one whoâs slightly more amazing. The rest donât look like much. They still canât compare with Titan High and Devil-Subduing High.â
Some people snorted disdainfully.
Because No. 60 Highâs overall ranking wasnât high, the students who were still climbing the stairs absolutely refused to admit that No. 60 High could surpass them.
No. 60 High?
How could it?
A cultivation high school that wasnât even a key city high schoolâ¦
But no matter how sour they felt, facts were facts, and they felt very helpless. No. 60 High was a dark horse no one had expected. No one could imagine that a high school which had always ranked last in the district ranking would actually stand out in the first round of a national competition.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Just then, there was another loud bang in the air!
It was followed by a violent shock wave which almost caused some of the students climbing the stairs to fall.
âNow what?â someone asked uncomprehendingly.
âItâs Titan High! And Devil-Subduing High! It looks like theyâre attacking No. 60 High!â
Hearing this, everybody turned their eyes to the window, and poked their necks out to look at the top.
It seemed that the two schools that had been the first to reach the top really were attacking No. 60 High, which was charging upward.
A dazzling array of spirit lights glowed at the top, and a wave of attack spells were aimed right at No. 60 Highâs ascending column of water!
[1] Sour and jealous.
