《Start With Contracting Sprites》Chapter 150: The Freshmen's Victory
Advertisement
There was no so-called surveillance footage on the spectator stand.
Like the freshmen, the instructors needed to use their eyes to observe the battle.
But it was different.
The instructors summoned their respective sprites and used various Sprite Commandeering methods to investigate.
Behind Heavenly King Wu, the silk threads on the trading puppet's hands jumped. Countless scenes were transmitted to his eyes through visual sharing.
It made him click his tongue in wonder.
"It can actually recruit so many newbie sprites. As expected of the student I fancy… Wait!"
Without batting an eyelid, he glanced at Muscle Tu and the other Heavenly Kings, feeling that things weren't looking too good.
The more outstanding Little Su was, the more attention he would attract, right?
He coughed dryly and said, "I think that the main reason it could combine so many sprites was due to timely coincidence."
"The students of our Whale Island are all God's favored, the most elite of all, looking down on others. But those 'ordinary' students are also prominent figures at the high school stage. They all have pride. They clearly know that they should join forces, but they can't swallow their pride."
Just like the small groups the freshmen formed, there were at most a dozen or so people.
Some of them were acquaintances to begin with.
It's not that their organization ability is poor, but… we are all privileged people, why should we obey your commands?
"Sprites are different," Heavenly King Wu said. "Sprites themselves are innocent. If they can't win, they can only join if they don't want to be eliminated. The whole battle team is like a snowball rolling, getting bigger and bigger… But one of the important reasons is still the tacit approval of those freshmen."
Some of the new students didn't realize the situation.
But as time passed, many people still discovered some clues.
However…
They couldn't win, and if they defected, they would be beaten up by other sprites. Most importantly, Reverie Butterfly's words "everyone can make contributions to succeed" moved them.
Thinking about it carefully, most of their sprites were cannon fodders. The challenge segment was just a stage for a small number of people to perform.

It was all thanks to the help of others, including a bit of their own work, but anything would be better than being defeated by the enemy.
As a result, when those relatively 'ordinary' new students learned of the situation, they also half-heartedly allowed their sprites to join the battle team.
Well… I still have to work harder.
They had to work hard to get the assist.
Top freshmen, like the boy in white's Ice Six Tails, would rather die than submit, so they died bravely.
There were also a few like Killer Mantis who surrendered without hesitation.
The battle team grew larger and larger. Everywhere it passed, it was either defeated or incorporated.
This made many teachers on the spectator stand dumbstruck.
"It's indeed the right time," said the Heavenly King of the Vast Ocean, Wei Mingyuan. "But it's precisely because this opportunity is rare that it can highlight Mr. Su Hao's excellence. He must have long planned to use sprites as a bond in the simulation battlefield to ally with others."
"That's right." Heavenly King of the Wind, Yu Hongfei also nodded. "He has an ace sprite with extraordinary strength and is proficient in illusion spells. After the first batch of sprites were eliminated to highlight the brutality, it started to incorporate an elite-level Killer Mantis and set an example to lower the likelihood of resistance of other sprites."
"Step by step, it looks simple, but in fact, as long as there's a mistake in one segment, the battle team won't be able to progress… This student's plan is not so simple after all."
He was very emotional.
In the end, Heavenly King Bu concluded, "He has strength and knows strategy. He is indeed a rare and outstanding new student. I'm very interested."
Heavenly King Wei: "Same."
Heavenly King Yu: "Same."
Heavenly King Yan also acknowledged.
Heavenly King Wu's mouth opened slightly. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
"Why, Old Wu, do you think this new student is relying on luck?" Heavenly King Bu grinned. "It's good that you don't want him. In any case, I've already decided to send him an invitation."
Heavenly King Wu: "???"

Did I say anything?
Why wouldn't I want him!
No, it was clearly mine in the first place…!!!
Heavenly King Wu was angry, but he still had to maintain his Heavenly King-level demeanor. A smile hung on the corners of his mouth, just that it was a little stiff.
...
On the audience platform.
Liu Ren's two sprites also went down.
They took the initiative to join the battle team, but the Lava Tortoise was too slow and couldn't keep up with the main team. It was just like other sprites like Thorny Turtle and Ink Tortoise, slowly chasing after them.
When they reached Site A, the main team had already reached Site E.
When they rushed to location E, where was the main team… main team?
The Lava Tortoise kept calling Liu Ren with contracts.
Liu Ren was too shocked to notice the contract bell.
He stood there in a daze for a while before turning to look at big thigh Su. He forced out two words. "Impressive (cracked voice)!"
Su Hao held his chin and pretended to be very calm.
And the indifference of having everything under control.
But...
He called for Butterfly, Dazed Crow, and Dumb Beast.
Can someone tell him the details and specific progress?
"Forget it, forget it. For the little rascal to be able to do this, it must have something to do with my usual education."
"Thinking about it this way, it's indeed my credit. That's right, that's it.
"I'm really impressive."
...
On the huge white tower, the man in the earpiece had just used "visual sharing", and then forcefully swallowed back the words "just a disorderly crowd, no need to be afraid".
After more than ten seconds, the Bursting Flame Bat and the Three-Headed Hound, which were already heavily injured, completely broke off contact with him.
He could only look at the bearded man who was also breaking out in sweat.
"Big Brother, have you counted exactly how many sprites there are?"
"This doesn't make sense! How did so many sprites get together? What exactly is their Sprite Trainer thinking?"
"I think that Reverie Butterfly is the leader. Killing it should be able to reverse the situation… That's what I did when I was surrounded previously…"
"Shut up!"
The boy with the despaired look roared.
Of course he knew that!
But that Reverie Butterfly, that Reverie Butterfly…
...
"Gurgle~!"
"Gurgle~!"
"Gurgle, gurgle ~!"
It was commanding.
Group 4 and Group performed 5 long-range attacks.
Group 1 and Group 2 attracted the attack.
Ordinary teams trapped the Vine Demon.
Ordinary team 2 used space-time tactics to stall the other sprites who rushed over to assist.
Its spiritual force fused with its sound, spreading far and wide.
Even in the poisonous fog area where the explosions kept coming from, it could be clearly heard by every sprite.
The Mountain Moving Ape, which was treated like a Boss, gradually lost its roars.
Its waving arms became weaker and weaker, but there were still a lot of enemies around.
Finally…
An illusion hit, and the Mountain Moving Ape suddenly froze.
Flaming Cloud Crow and Killer Mantis, who were looking for opportunities in the surroundings, turned into two figures, one red and one dark green, and rushed forward.
Swords and knives flashed on the battlefield.
The Mountain Moving Ape fell.
A minute later, the second Boss, the Vine Demon, fell.
Five minutes later, the other four Bosses fell.
Although a lot of the battle team's sprites had also died, it was just fighting against the Boss, how could there not be casualties?
The sprites that had assisted in the attack all let out excited roars.
At this moment.
On another huge white tower opposite them.
Two boys, two girls, total four second-year students looked into the distance, vaguely having a bad feeling.
"Isn't the battle commotion over there too… too huge?"
"From the looks of it, all the difficult freshmen this year have gone over there to fight. I reckon it has nothing to do with us."
"No, have you guys noticed that the smoke and dust that was raised seems to be… getting closer and closer?"
The four second-year students looked into the distance, their mouths gradually widening.
...
Ten minutes later.
Whale Island University's 46th Annual Challenge Competition ended with all the older students eliminated.
At the same time, the instructors of each level also sent out invitations to the students they favored.
Countless new Sprite Commandeering wristbands vibrated at this moment.

Dungeon Instinct
The multiverse is a big place, and it is also constantly in flux. As such sometimes mistakes occur, impossibilities that should have never come into existence. An aspect of corruption born naturally of a mortal and a divine, a Void that is a singularity instead of a duality, a being that came to be before existence ever was, a forgotten that is not damned, the possibilities are infinite and limitless, and thus so are the possible mistakes in this grand multiverse. But are not mistakes more entertaining to watch? For Kelic the Blightborn, life was suffering. Born of a holy Templar dedicated to serving the Forgotten Guardian and a powerful abyssal demon queen that raped said Templar, Kelic’s first sight and sensation in Quellios and its realms was being baptized in the life-blood of his dying father. Tortured in the 1425th level of the abyss for ten years, Kelic was only set free of this constant nightmare of an existence by the unintended results of the Ascendant Angel’s rise to true divinity. His freedom from the abyss was not the paradise that the young Kelic thought however, as he was branded a BlightBorn, or a child of tragedy that brings only misfortune, by the people of Quellios. Abused by all he ever knew or met the boy found solace in only in the things of beauty and the act of reading, a skill he taught himself. His latent ability to comprehend and remember all of what he read and the sheer speed of his reading gained the attention of a prominent figure of Evrette Academy Island. Taken in by the famous mage Fredrick Dunhousen, Kelic lived in peace for the first time in his young life… that is until he was killed. Follow the tale of a newly born dungeon core in the world of Eserthet, that has only one single purpose. One single purpose it decided for itself...

Jack of All Trades, Master of All
Jack was reincarnated, again. This time, the omnipotent sphere had finally revealed to him that this new world was, in fact, the real one, and his soul had just returned to his body after two years of coma. During that span, the Earth or the magical world No.146, where he was The Grand Sage, was just a simulation experience. Jack inherited the System of Knowledge from his former self in the previous world. But gradually, he realized there were other Returners, holding other powerful Systems that they themself were also granted. The reason? The Omnipotent Sphere refused to give an answer. With the ever-burning desire to find his former friends and companions at World No.146 after their souls too were returned to this world, Jack began his journey. Ahead of him, five hundred years old as he technically was, there might be some surprises he still wasn’t prepared for. This is an original translated work. I’ve always wanted to challenge my writing skill and post on Royalroad a few times, but, as it turned out, I realized my own English capability still limited me. Therefore, I am currently working with a team of three, hence the name Triopals, consisting of me, the author, a translator, and an investor who really put his faith in this project. My translator and I will work together to deliver four chapters each week. Depending on the translating, editing, re-reading, checking, and re-reading-again process, the chapters will be uploaded each day or all at once. Careful as we may be, there can still be some errors at our best, so we welcome grammatical corrections, etc. We are very appreciative of your support.

Marakar
Far from the exploration he yearned to go on, Rae, the Kijah prince, finds himself in the middle of the impending war between Kijah'dar and Ga'ani. Unknown to him, or to the rest of the states, the Kijah Magister plots to overthrow the queen, and he will stop at nothing to achieve his plans. Marakar is a fantasy adventure series about the island states of Mar’narana (with focus primarily on the two states, Kijah'dar and Ga'ani). Tensions between the big players are rising, with more and more plots getting revealed, and powers are unexpectedly shifting. As the string of seemingly unconnected events grows taut, the smaller nations suddenly find themselves into the midst of things, struggling with the sudden shifting of their boards. On a more meta note, I am trying to develop two storylines parallel to each other. As you might have noticed, odd-numbered chapters are very different from even-numbered chapters. That’s because those are the two different storylines; odd-numbered chapters are in the present, while even-numbered ones are in the past. Once the two eventually meet I'll continue with just the present storyline. This story can also be found here where it currently updates every other Sunday (about twice a month). Feedback is greatly appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to read. :) tw/cw list (please take care of your mental health! Don't force yourself to read these chapters if they may harm you). -------> Chapter 14: hate crime description.
