Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 476: Dissipation

The battle quickly commenced.

Chu Mo and Gu Chen still went all out, while the people from the other Federations were merely going through the motions of holding back.

Xiao Zhan remained standing in his spot, choosing not to make a move.

Some from the other Federations did the same, opting to enjoy the show.

But for them, the show was more about watching Xiao Zhan.

"From what I remember, your Longxia seems to have a blood feud with Baka, so how come you’re not taking part at a time like this?" Sean from the Beautiful Federation approached Xiao Zhan and said.

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan snorted coldly from the corner of his mouth.

"Among the Federations present, which one doesn’t have a blood feud with my Longxia?"

With only nineteen Federations left in the world, the prior nations having merged or been destroyed, there’s bound to be some hatred.

Xiao Zhan paid him no attention.

He turned back to his seat and started to enjoy himself leisurely.

It seemed that the competition’s outcome was of no importance to him.

A trace of disdain flashed across Sean’s face as he sneered inwardly, "Humph, let’s see how long you can keep this up."

In his view, Xiao Zhan was smart, surely having noticed how the dozen or so Federations were intentionally targeting Longxia.

But Longxia lacked the power to resist; faced with this unalterable oppression, they had no choice but to endure.

Xiao Zhan was not convinced, hence his inaction—a silent protest.

But would this protest be effective?

Soon, the battle in the arena came to an end.

The Baka Federation lasted just over a minute, longer than the Beautiful Federation’s time, temporarily placing first.

Unless there was a surprise, it seemed that it would be the Baka Federation and the Longxia Federation in the overtime match.

Xiao Zhan wasn’t too surprised by this result.

From his recent observations, the Baka Federation, combined with Ninjutsu, had demonstrated significantly stronger combat power than the contestants from the Beautiful Federation.

In terms of technology, the Beautiful Federation held the top spot.

But when it comes to personal combat power, those Federations with deep roots were expectedly stronger.

"Xiao-san, I’m really looking forward to fighting you."

Watanabe Kogorou from the Baka Federation seemed quite pleased with himself, making a point of approaching Xiao Zhan.

"No need to look forward to it; you won’t get that chance."

"Oh?"

Watanabe Kogorou was taken aback, but quickly caught on, "Xiao-san, it seems you have a lot of confidence in your strength."

"Confidence is a man’s charm."

"Hmm, not bad." Watanabe Kogorou nodded in acknowledgment, then added, "I hope you can remain just as confident during your one against fifty-four later on."

Having said that, he turned and left.

Chu Mo and Gu Chen also approached Xiao Zhan.

The two were somewhat displeased with Xiao Zhan’s attitude.

But Xiao Zhan didn’t mind; instead, he reassured them, "Take a good rest. Get ready to embrace our victory this afternoon."

"Victory isn’t something you can achieve just by talking about it." Gu Chen said in a teasing tone.

Xiao Zhan smiled from the corner of his mouth, didn’t say much, just patted his shoulder, and then went back to his room to rest.

...

The rest period flew by.

The final challenge of the afternoon finally arrived.

Xiao Zhan and two others, wielding the Artifact Spirit, were surrounded in the middle by fifty-four individuals from various Federations.

Pre-battle standoff.

Xiao Zhan could feel a completely different atmosphere from the fifty-four challengers than before; they were excited, sneering, disdainful, looking at him with a sense of playfulness akin to a cat toying with a mouse.

Chu Mo and Gu Chen also sensed this peculiar aura emanating from the group.

Gu Chen’s expression turned solemn, "The way these guys are looking at us, as if they can’t wait to devour us... they won’t take the chance to strike a deadly blow, will they?"

Chu Mo said, "That’s unlikely; they don’t have the guts for it. They’ve already pushed it by using the rules against us, taking a chance to strike a deadly blow would mean opposing the Longxia Federation."

To kill the trio from Longxia right in front of the Longxia Federation would certainly invite furious retaliation.

The Longxia Federation is the one with the highest Combat Power!

There aren’t many hot-headed fools willing to tear off the facade.

But Xiao Zhan had a different opinion, "Don’t forget the saying, ’the law does not punish the masses.’ If it were just one Federation, they wouldn’t dare to make a deadly move, but what if they acted together? Does Longxia dare to wage war against the whole world?"

Upon hearing this.

Chu Mo and Gu Chen’s backs tensed up, their complexions paling slightly.

"They wouldn’t do that, would they? Waging war against the whole world is unthinkable, but tearing off the facade doesn’t do them any favors either," Chu Mo still found it hard to believe.

Xiao Zhan said, "Some Federations definitely won’t, but others are unpredictable. Moreover, once the melee starts, accidents and mishandling of power are all too common."

With that said.

Chu Mo suddenly understood, but at the same time, his back broke out in even more cold sweat.

"What should we do then?" Chu Mo became anxious.

Xiao Zhan said, "Don’t worry, I’m here."

"You? Do you actually have the confidence to beat all fifty-four of them?" Gu Chen couldn’t help but jab after hearing Xiao Zhan’s words.

He acknowledged that Xiao Zhan was strong, but being strong doesn’t equate to boundless arrogance.

Xiao Zhan said, "All confidence is based on strength; if you don’t believe, it’s because you haven’t possessed such strength yourself."

Such arrogant words.

Three against fifty-four, your strength must indeed be formidable.

Gu Chen suddenly felt an impulse to abandon Xiao Zhan and see how he alone would fight these fifty-four people – Xiao Zhan really had a way of being pretentious, and it was irksome to watch.

"Xiao Zhan, stop dawdling, get ready. If you’re scared, you can surrender right now," Sean called out to Xiao Zhan from among the crowd encircling them.

It had been a while, and Xiao Zhan and his people had yet to prepare; Sean was growing impatient.

Xiao Zhan looked at him with a sneering glance.

Arrogant now.

Wait till later when you’ve tasted your own medicine.

Then, he spoke to Chu Mo and Gu Chen, "If you can’t hold on later, just admit defeat straight away; don’t try to endure it unnecessarily and don’t worry about me – likewise, I won’t worry about either of you."

"If there are no objections, I’ll outline our combat plan. The strategy is simple: scatter to stall for time, don’t retaliate, and the further apart we are, the better."

A battle of three against fifty-four.

The disparity in strength is far too great.

Sticking together would not be of any use; if it were a life-and-death fight, then banding together might make sense.

But this is a timed delay match, so rather than huddling together, it’s better to scatter and fight individually; there might even be a chance of finding a glimmer of hope.

At this point, Xiao Zhan deliberately glanced at Gu Chen. ƒreewebɳovel.com

"Your speed is the fastest, so don’t be caught before you even scatter."

"Hmph, who are you looking down on! I’ll show you what true speed is!" Gu Chen said indignantly.

"That’s good."
