Beast Tamer: My pet has a game panel
#395 - Battle Rules
Boom—
On the arena, with a flash of golden light and the formation of a massive energy surge, a colossal spirit pet collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Its master stood by, a grim expression on their face, teeth gritted, unmoving.
"With this meager strength, you dare challenge me? Heh."
Jin Bowen, ranked fifth, sneered, looking down on his opponent with contempt.
During today's quota battle, nearly half the participants chose him as their target.
While he was aware of his own capabilities, he resented being seen as an easy target.
Thus, with each challenger he defeated, his words grew more arrogant.
"Get lost."
Waving his hand dismissively, Jin Bowen's expression turned cold as he glanced at the crowd below the arena, taunting, "I suggest those who can't withstand three moves from my spirit pet shouldn't even bother coming up here, or you'll just embarrass yourselves.
So boring, not even a little interesting.
It seems like you all haven't improved at all since the summer vacation."
Below the arena, apart from the top four who had already secured their official spots, many of the other students clenched their fists upon hearing this, their faces darkening.
If they had the strength, they would have retorted to these mocking words, but unfortunately, none of their spirit pets possessed a domain.
Thus, what could they possibly say?
Beast Taming Academy was a place where strength reigned supreme.
With the opponent's strength being superior, nothing would come of a few words, a point evident from the attitude of the leading teacher not far away.
"Teacher, I don't think anyone dares to challenge me anymore.
Can I step down now?"
On the arena, seeing the students below gritting their teeth, Jin Bowen smiled and spoke jovially to the leading teacher, Guo Yan.
Leading teacher Guo Yan nodded slightly.
There weren't many participants in this test to begin with, and after a few had taken the stage, he, as a King-level Beast Tamer, naturally knew everything clearly.
"Well, then this test concludes.
The official members of the school team remain Yu Xiaoshi, Sun Mingzhe, Liao Jinxin, Pan Feng, and Jin Bowen.
The rest of you may leave."
A somber atmosphere permeated the ranks of the reserve members, many of whom bit their lips, their gazes fixed on the arena with resentment.
Although they were reserve members, seemingly only two words away from being official members, the difference between the two in terms of status and treatment was as vast as the sky and the earth.
With this defeat, it could almost be said that this year's Academy Tournament was irrelevant to them, and perhaps even the next, or even their entire lives, the Academy Tournament would remain out of their reach.
After all, more than half of the reserve members were already seniors this year, and wouldn't even be able to participate in the ranking battles next year, let alone anything else.
Of course, many reserve members left with confidence.
These students were either juniors or sophomore geniuses, and if they didn't get selected this year, they would have another chance next year.
One failure didn't mean anything.
As the reserve members departed, the remaining members below the arena, except for Yu Xiaoshi, ranked first and having participated in the Academy Tournament last year, began to chat, their familiarity evident in their conversations.
As "predetermined" official members, the five of them had dominated the top five spots in the ranking battles since the first half of the year.
And even last year, Yu Xiaoshi, currently ranked first, and Sun Mingzhe, ranked second, were among the top five geniuses in the academy.
Adding the days when they were reserve members, they had known each other for a long time.
Even if some of them weren't exactly friends, they weren't strangers either.
"Dean."
From the spectator stand, Beast Taming Academy Dean Wang Pojun descended with Ye Mo.
In this situation, how could he not be curious about Ye Mo?
Arriving before the group, Dean Wang Pojun's expression turned stern.
He felt both admiration and regret for these students who ranked in the top five.
He admired that their strength wasn't bad, and they were qualified to be members of the school team, but he regretted that this level of strength was far from enough to participate in the Academy Tournament.
For example, Yu Xiaoshi, ranked first, had considerable strength, but was still weaker than last year's top-ranked genius.
As for the others, there was no need to mention them.
The school team's strength had clearly declined significantly.
And to think that even last year's school team only managed to secure fourth place in the Academy Tournament.
With this year's lineup, they might not even be able to hold onto fifth place, and if things went wrong, they might end up with the worst result in the academy's history in the past decade.
Thinking of this, Wang Pojun, as the Dean of the Beast Taming Academy, felt a headache coming on.
Fortunately, this year was different.
Thinking of this, his gaze shifted to Ye Mo.
With this person around, even if this year's results weren't good, they would definitely be able to achieve good results next year.
After all, this disciple of Dean Chu's was a monstrous talent.
"Ahem, I've watched the battles just now, not bad.
Compared to last semester, your strength has improved a lot."
Wang Pojun, with his rugged face, spoke calmly, then turned to Ye Mo and said, "I'm here this time to tell you something.
This person is your junior, and he will also be joining the school team."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present, except for the leading teacher Guo Yan, was stunned.
"What?"
"Huh?"
Jin Bowen, who was paying the most attention and listening the most carefully, was the most greatly affected, and hurriedly asked, "No, Dean, is this junior joining the school team? Or the reserve team?"
Wang Pojun shook his head directly and replied seriously, "Not the reserve team, he's joining the school team directly, becoming an official member."
Swallowing, Jin Bowen, greatly shocked, tried to control his expression, took a deep breath, and then continued to ask, "But the official members of the school team have always been only five.
If he joins, then I..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone present knew what he meant.
Immediately, all the official members of the school team frowned and looked at the Dean in confusion.
If they rashly let someone join the school team, then all of them would express their dissatisfaction, even if the other party was the Dean of the academy.
After all, if they could squeeze someone in today and replace one of them, then couldn't they squeeze someone else in later and replace someone else among them?
This was unacceptable to all of them, and they weren't afraid of the consequences of objecting.
As the strongest students in the entire academy, they were well aware of their position.
Not to mention reporting to the academy principal or the Yanhuang Alliance, the very fact that they wouldn't participate in this Academy Tournament would be an unacceptable cost for the entire Modu Academy.
It could be said that if they, or rather, if Yu Xiaoshi, who was ranked first, were absent, the ranking of the Magic City Academy in this competition would probably plummet.
Wang Pojun saw the surprise in the students' eyes, turned to look at Ye Mo, and chuckled, "Introduce yourself."
Ye Mo nodded and curiously glanced at the two strongest members of the school team, "Hello, senior brothers and sisters, my name is Ye Mo, and I am a freshman in the special training class."
Jin Bowen, Pan Feng, and the others all looked at Ye Mo, carefully sizing him up, and their expressions changed with Ye Mo's words.
Ye Mo? Never heard of him? Where did he come from? I haven't heard of any powerful experts with the surname Ye around here.
Freshman? What's going on? Isn't he a freshman who just enrolled this year? How can he join the school team? What are the deans doing!
Never seen him before, Ye Mo, sounds a bit familiar, but it shouldn't be.
After Ye Mo finished his simple explanation, Jin Bowen, Pan Feng, and the others had already been through several rounds of thoughts, filled with surprise and more surprise.
After all, if what he said was true, then he's just a freshman, a freshman who just joined the academy. In this case, how thick must his background be to be arranged into the school team.
Even Yu Xiaoshi, the ice-cold girl ranked first, with a cold face like a snow lotus, showed obvious surprise in her pupils after hearing these words.
As for the others, there's no need to mention it.

Wang Pojun coughed lightly and continued, "Although I said to let Ye Mo join the school team, whether he can really join the school team depends on his strength.
Just like the battle just now, Ye Mo will be the challenger. As long as he defeats any of you, he will officially become a member of the school team."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the five members of the school team immediately recovered a lot, especially Jin Bowen. As the last-ranked member of the team, he had always been under a lot of pressure.
As long as there are students who can threaten the members of the school team, he will inevitably be the most anxious member of the school team.
Just like now, although the dean's words meant that whoever Ye Mo defeated would lose their official membership, in the end, if one of the five of them really had to leave, it would definitely be him.
So, the moment he heard these words, all of Jin Bowen's attention was focused on Ye Mo and Pan Feng.
The former was the person who might challenge him, and the latter was the person who could determine whether he could stay on the school team if he failed.
"Alright, Ye Mo, choose quickly, who are you going to challenge?" Wang Pojun came to Ye Mo's side with a smile and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "I am very much looking forward to your performance."
Hearing the dean's words, Ye Mo smiled and nodded, then looked at Jin Bowen, who was ranked fifth, "Dean Wang, I choose to challenge Senior Brother Jin Bowen."
Although the meaning in the dean's words might be to let him choose the stronger ones, this is just a battle to compete for a spot on the school team, and he doesn't need to challenge a higher difficulty.
Moreover, according to the current situation, he will have to become a member of the school team with the other four in the future, and he will probably spend a lot of time together. It would be bad to hurt the harmony if he challenged them.
Of course, the most important thing is that there is no reward for choosing a more difficult challenge, so it is better to choose an easy one.
As for letting the spirit pets gain experience, he should choose the weakest one in the school team, after all, if the other party loses, there may not be a second chance to fight in the future.
As Ye Mo's words came out, Yu Xiaoshi, Pan Feng, and the others in the school team all showed expressions of 'as expected' on their faces.
Only Dean Wang Pojun felt a little regretful. He really wanted to see Ye Mo challenge the stronger students, so that he could understand his strength more clearly.
But it doesn't matter if he didn't choose them. Anyway, there is still a long time to come. After Ye Mo joins the school team, there will be plenty of time to observe Ye Mo and see how this genius disciple, who Principal Chu Dehou has been talking about, really is.
Soon after, on the arena, Ye Mo and Jin Bowen stood on opposite sides.
This battle mode is still based on the rules of the school competition, that is, the attack does not limit the range, but the Beast Master must not be actively attacked. The battle ends when all the spirit pets of one Beast Master lose their combat power.
During the battle, the Beast Master can only summon one spirit pet at a time, and can only summon the next spirit pet after the spirit pet on the field loses its combat power or surrenders. The maximum number of spirit pets that can be summoned is three.
This rule is also for the sake of fairness and the development of students.
After all, the students who can enter the top academies are all geniuses, and the awakened star maps are almost all six stars or even seven stars or higher. In this case, if a student really wants to improve their combat power quickly, they can completely contract multiple fourth-order spirit pets.
In this case, if all the spirit pets are summoned and fight together, just like in the wild, the side with more spirit pets will have a great advantage.
After all, if both sides' fourth-order spirit pets have domains, then under the domain confrontation, the other spirit pets they contracted that do not have domains can play a significant role, instead of being easily defeated by the domain-level spirit pets.
Therefore, for the sake of fairness and the long-term development of these genius students, the battle rules of the academy competition are set to summon one spirit pet at a time, and the upper limit is only three.
On the viewing platform, Wang Pojun watched the scene below with great interest. Beside him, Guo Yan, the teacher leading the team, also looked over curiously.
On one side of the two of them, the other four members of the school team were also staring intently at the arena below.
"Sun Mingzhe, Liao Jinxin, do you think Jin Bowen will win?" Pan Feng, who was tall and strong and had a calm aura, asked.
Sun Mingzhe smiled, smoothed his golden hair, and said casually, "He should win, although the person the dean brought may not be weak, but after all, he is just a freshman, how strong can he be."
On the other side, after looking at her newly painted nails, Liao Jinxin slightly curled her lips, looked at the arena below through her fingers, and said, "I hope that Jin Bowen can lose to the new junior brother, so that our school team can be more interesting."
Faced with the two's answers, Pan Feng remained silent, but his gaze towards the arena below became more serious.
If Jin Bowen really loses, then it won't be long before Jin Bowen challenges him in an attempt to enter the school team.
And at that time, whether he can beat the opponent is still unknown. After all, Jin Bowen's family background is much larger than his. If his family provides enough resources to help him, then with his strength, it is really hard to say.
Thinking of this, he gripped the railing with his wrist, with more force.
