Chapter 258: The Opening Game is the Royal Game

After nearly half an hour of the battle, everyone obtained their respective ball of light.

The players all went to the rest area to wait while the 33 managers stood in a circle. Manager Su stood in the middle of them and said, “Next, the team with the number 1 spot, choose your opponent first!”

Yin Rong walked to Manager Su.

In front of her, there were 2 to 33 balls of light. Those basketball managers of the last-rate academies, afraid that they would face the Divine Realm Academy in the first round, were a little nervous.

The Divine Eagle Academy had never thought that the Divine Realm Academy would choose them. Therefore, they didn’t care about Yin Rong’s decision at all.

It was only when Yin Rong’s hand reached out for the number 2 ball that the manager of the Divine Eagle Academy saw her action and a look of anger instantly appeared on his face.

“Yin Rong! What are you doing?!”

Yin Rong calmly picked up the No. 2 ball and turned to Manager Su. “Manager Su, the No. 1 ball has the right to choose first. I can choose any school, right?”

Although Manager Su was shocked, he still nodded. “According to the rules, that’s right.”

Yu Huang gave the Divine Eagle Academy’s basketball manager a provocative look. “The women in our academy can’t wait to pamper your academy’s handsome boys. Why, are you afraid?”

The manager of the Divine Eagle Academy took a deep breath and said angrily, “Then let’s fight!”

In the past, the Divine Realm Academy had always been low-key and gentle. But this year, the basketball manager sent by the Divine Realm Academy seemed to be especially belligerent.

She looked very gentle, but she was very arrogant.

In the elimination rounds, any academy that was eliminated would lose the qualification to advance. If the Divine Eagle Academy lost to the Divine Realm Academy and wanted to continue competing for the top three, they would have to challenge five academies consecutively to obtain the opportunity to continue competing.

The Divine Eagle Academy was naturally confident in getting into the top three. However, it was originally very easy to get into the top three. Because of the actions of the Divine Realm Academy, they had to work harder this time.

The Divine Realm Academy was publicly shaming the Divine Eagle Academy!

Those who had bought tickets to watch the battle realized that the first match today was between the Divine Realm Academy and the Divine Eagle Academy. Everyone instantly felt excited and motivated.

Who would have thought that the opening would be the King’s Tournament!

If the Divine Eagle Academy didn’t want to lose, they would naturally do their best to win against the Divine Realm Academy. Yin Rong said to Yu Huang and the others, “The players sent by the Divine Eagle Academy are mostly students above the 8th grade. Other than one substitute player who is at the late-stage Scholar cultivation level, the rest of the players are all Masters.”

On their side, Yu Huang, who was an official player, was at the late-stage Scholar level.

Yin Rong said to Yu Huang, “In order to win, they will definitely target you. Yu Huang, be mentally prepared.”

Yu Huang said, “I’ll try to fight for a longer time.”

Yin Rong chuckled. “There’s no need to say that.”

The nine people stood in a small circle with their fists clenched. They clenched their fists and shouted, “Divine Realm Academy, victory is assured!” After shouting, the nine people separated.

Under Yin Yang’s lead, Xiao Shu, Lie Gang, Zhong Luoxue, and Yu Huang flew to the basketball court.

The next second, the five players from the Divine Eagle Academy flew to the basketball court.

The basketball court of the beast tamers was a hundred times bigger than an ordinary basketball court. Energy barriers were built around the basketball court to prevent the basketball from flying out of the court and injuring the audience.

However, once the basketball crashed into the energy wall, it would be out-of-bounds.

Everyone stood according to their positions. Manager Su shouted, “On both teams, each team will have one player jump!”

A tall man with dyed blue hair walked out from the Divine Eagle Academy’s side. He was very tall and his jersey could not hide his muscular body.

His name was Poison Assault, and his name sounded like he was not to be trifled with.

On the Divine Realm Academy’s side, Lie Gang was sent out.

Lie Gang’s figure was tall and sturdy, like a little King Kong. His body size was comparable to that of Poison Assault’s. The two of them stood opposite each other across a white line and stared at each other fiercely.

Manager Su whistled and threw the ball into the air.

The ball flew into the sky but did not fall. It floated quietly in the sky while waiting for the players to snatch it. At the same time, Lie Gang and Poison Assault summoned their beast forms.

Lie Gang’s beast form was the King Kong Beast, while Poison Assault’s beast form was the polar bear of the same species as Sheng Yang’s. However, his polar bear was much stronger and larger than Sheng Yang’s.

Lie Gang roared and punched the ground.

“Nine-Layered Pagoda! The first pagoda!”

With a punch, the diamond basketball court shook.

“Nine-Layered Pagoda! Second Pagoda!”

The second punch smashed down, and a layer of energy light wave spread in all directions. When it was affected by the energy wave, all the players released their energy shields and tried their best to resist Lie Gang’s attack.

“Nine-Layered Pagoda! Third Pagoda!”

The diamond court beneath Lie Gang cracked.

At the same time, Poison Assault also drew a white array under his feet. He fought side by side with his beast form polar bear.

Waves of white light rose from under their feet. The polar bear’s body grew bigger and bigger, and eventually, it actually rivaled the height of the King Kong.

When the energy was gathered, the polar bear attacking him suddenly jumped up. It leaped hundreds of feet and fell from the sky. The air was oppressed by its energy and let out whimpering sounds.

Lie Gang and his King Kong punched at the same time—

“Nine-Layered Pagoda! Sixth Pagoda!”

When the King Kong’s fist smashed down, the diamond beneath him was smashed into more than ten pieces. The King Kong pounded his chest and roared as he raised his head and raised his hands to face the polar bear that fell from the sky!

The shattered rocks attacked the polar bear.

The air under the polar bear distorted. As soon as the gravel approached the polar bear, it was completely swallowed. The polar bear roared angrily and the gravel activated by the King Kong turned into dust.

“Roar!”

The polar bear pressed heavily on the King Kong’s body. Lie Gang suffered a backlash and clutched his chest while letting out a muffled groan. Blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth.

After defeating Lie Gang, Poison Assault quickly flew into the sky.

He slapped the basketball into the Divine Eagle Academy’s camp.

Poison Assault was the strongest person in the Divine Eagle Academy basketball team. He was 35 years old and his cultivation level was already at the peak of the late-stage Master Realm. He was one of the top three in the Divine Eagle Academy’s expert ranking.

It was not shameful for Lie Gang to lose to him!

Seeing the ball land on the Divine Eagle Academy’s court, Yin Yang said in a low voice, “Snatch it!”

Hearing this, Yu Huang suddenly spread the Vermillion Bird wings on her back and flew towards the Divine Eagle Academy’s court in the blink of an eye.

The vanguard of the Divine Eagle Academy was shooting the ball into the basket. Just as the blue ball was about to fall into the ball, a red light flashed and the ball was held by a slender hand.

Everyone raised their heads and focused their gazes before recognizing that the person who seized the ball was actually Divine Realm Academy’s Yu Huang.

Yu Huang stepped on the basketball hoop on the opponent’s court and quickly flew back.

Seeing that the rear guard of the Divine Eagle Academy had jumped up to stop her, Yu Huang did not hesitate to throw the ball out and shouted, “Xiao Shu! Catch!”

Xiao Shu jumped up and grabbed the basketball. He didn’t dribble the ball and sent it to Lie Gang, who was the closest to the ball frame. Lie Gang immediately took the ball and scored!

“Divine Realm Academy, one point!”

Yu Huang was stopped by the opponent’s rear guard in the sky. The opponent punched towards Yu Huang’s mask. Yu Huang somersaulted backward and used her legs to kick the opponent’s fist.

Yu Huang and the opponent’s rear guard were both sent flying towards the opponent’s court.

Just as she was about to hit the opponent’s basketball hoop, Yu Huang flapped her wings to stabilize her figure and in the blink of an eye, she flew back to the camp of the Divine Realm Academy.

At this moment, the people from Divine Eagle Academy had already rushed to the Divine Realm Academy. Both sides started to fight over the basketball in the Divine Realm Academy’s territory.

Because Yu Huang could fly, she had a natural advantage in snatching balls. She was targeted by the two players on the other side. It was two against one, and the opponents were both Master level. Yu Huang should have had a hard time.

However, she had lived in the post-apocalyptic era for two hundred years. Her close-combat skills far exceeded those of these twenty to thirty-year-old children. In a situation where she could not use cultivation techniques and could only use spiritual power to fight, Yu Huang was actually not at a disadvantage.

During the fight, Yu Huang could even take the time to say to Xiao Shu and the others, “Go ahead and score points. I’ll help you delay their vanguard and captain!”

Hearing that, Xiao Shu and the others scored two shots in a row, as if they were on stimulants.

“Intermission!”

Manager Su whistled. Everyone stopped and stopped snatching the ball.

At that time, the Divine Realm Academy scored 3 points and the Divine Eagle Academy scored 0 points.
