Sprite Care Village, Water Lake Hall.

It was the venue of the first "regular season".

The influence of the Sprite Care Cup was smaller than that of the High School League, and some ordinary Sprite Universities didn't have Sprite Cultivation specializations either.

Therefore, not all high schools sent representatives to participate.

At this moment…

In the various waiting areas of Water Sheen Hall, a total of 30-odd teams were waiting from various Dragon Nation universities.

Master Yao and the other instructors of the various schools were sitting in the guest seats.

On the high platform, the judges were still sitting and looking down.

At the waiting area.

Su Hao was sitting below the words "Whale Island University", waiting patiently.

The other four people sat on the left and right seats.

Lin Xueguang, the freckled girl, the lanky boy, and the slightly chubby girl.

The two were originally substitutes, but because they were better at cultivating and evolving water-element sprites, they were replaced.

It was just that they were a little nervous.

"S-Senior, so many masters are watching. Why do I feel like my limbs aren't listening to me?"

"Well, well, if the plan we chose isn't good and we waste our sprite potential, will we be called out and criticized!"

Sprite Cultivator students who usually did research were a little unaccustomed to big occasions.

It was Lin Xueguang's second time participating in the Sprite Cultivation Cup, so he was used to it. He wasn't nervous, but he didn't know how to console him either.

He could only look at Su Hao, who didn't seem nervous at all.

The freckled girl also sat closer and asked, "Mr. Su Hao, why are you so calm?"

Before Su Hao could answer, the butterfly flapped its wings and turned around.

Wariness stared—

The freckled girl who was planning to approach froze.

Su Hao maintained his distance without batting an eyelid. He thought for a moment and said, "Masters don't seem scary, right? They're all pretty amiable seniors."

The Heavenly Kings were the same.

Some even had their dark histories exposed, feeling like their prestige had already dropped.

But he couldn't say it.

He thought about it and made a suggestion.

"If you're nervous, you can get your sprites to be your assistants and help you arrange the evolution venue with materials, etc."

The freckled girl was speechless.

Lin Xueguang typed out a question mark.

"Sprites can even assist in setting up the venue?"

"I only know that intelligent sprites like Dr. Wolf can be assistants after special training… But that requires specialized training first."

Was that so?

Su Hao looked at Die Xiaodie. "With the intelligence of sprites, aren't they just basic operations? Do they need special training? No need, my family has never done any special training."

Lin Xueguang looked at Su Hao, then at Reverie Butterfly.

He fell into deep thought.

Could it be that their understanding of sprites wasn't deep enough?

It didn't make sense that the Reverie Butterfly Su Hao had nurtured for more than a year could do it. The Vine Demon he had nurtured for four to five years couldn't.

Should he… give it a try later?

...

Before long, batches of sprites were led in from the gate of Water Pool Hall.

Little Seashell, Sickle Crab, Cyclops, Little Water Crocodile, Little River Prawn, Bubbling Squid, White-Headed Tortoise…

They were both water-element sprites in their initial forms.

"Looks like the examiners' team wants to test whether we can push our sprites into entry level at the same time our sprites evolve."

Lin Xueguang said.

The lanky boy was puzzled.

"Isn't it very easy to let a sprite break through at the same time as it evolves? Everyone here can do it. Even a slightly stronger primary-level Sprite Cultivator can do it, right?"

"That means cultivating pretty good sprites."

Su Hao pursed his lips and pointed into the distance. "And these sprites in front of us have stable spiritual force values between 100 and 101. They are already at the limit of entry level. Their potential for development isn't high, and the difficulty of breaking through to entry level is also high."

"So, it's not difficult to let them complete their evolution, but to break through in one go with the help of an opportunity, it seems… Well, it's not difficult either."

The tall and thin boy was speechless.

No, it was really difficult.

Compared to sprites with 130+spiritual force, making them break through was like the difference between the Normal-level and Hell-level difficulty. It was a new difficulty for the ship that he had never challenged before.

What should I do? I'm so panicked!

"Don't panic," Su Hao said. "Anyway, the problem is very big. There are also many people who can't do it. You won't be the only one."

The tall and thin boy was speechless.

It was comforting, right? Right?

...

At this moment, more than 100 water-element sprites were led… or rather, driven to fixed positions.

On round platforms.

Su Hao used the interface to observe and discovered that some of them were sprites with owners—they should be volunteers who were voluntarily provided to the Sprite Cultivator Cup as their competitors.

The evolution effect might not be good.

But the advantage was that it was free—a set of commonly used evolution materials would cost at least 30 to 50,000 yuan.

Sprite Trainers who lost a lot of their potential weren't rich to begin with.

How could he afford to hire a high-level Sprite Cultivator?

He was very lucky to have been chosen by the Sprite Care Cup.

As for the others, Su Hao glanced at the original area and discovered wild sprites fished out from the primordial area.

It looked more irritated and uneasy.

It was just that it was suppressed by an extraordinary Six-Eyed Flying Fish above and moved forward obediently.

Numbers were marked on every round platform in the aquarium.

The sprites that Su Hao and the other participants would be in charge of would be matched by drawing lots on the computer.

"Begin matching!"

An examiner's voice came from the loudspeaker.

Countless human heads appeared on the big screen in the center of Water Sheen Hall. The numbers below kept jumping.

Soon, the number on the big screen froze.

Everyone's cell phones also vibrated.

"I'm number 22. The sprite in charge is a Little Seashell."

The freckled girl holding the lotus flower bud breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Su Hao again.

Su Hao picked up his cell phone and glanced at it. "Number 13, its target is a Sickle Crab."

...

In Water Lake Hall, Su Hao stepped on the muddy path and arrived at the target platform.

He observed.

He discovered that there were spiritual jades embedded around the platform.

"In order to ensure that there is sufficient spiritual energy, the organizers have also invested heavily."

Then, he looked at a huge shelf not far away. Countless materials were placed on it.

There were common and strange ones.

There were many similar shelves in Water Sheen Hall.

"Each person can receive three elemental essences, but there are no restrictions on other materials."

Su Hao glanced at the Sickle Crab.

This was just a wild one. When it saw him approaching, it raised its sickle-like pincers and snorted as it displayed its martial power.

"Let it be quiet."

"Gurgle~"

Butterfly gave it a look.

Instantly, the Sickle Crab's whole body trembled. It spun around on the spot, looking a little crazy.

It can't be hopeless, right?

Butterfly felt a little guilty. It glanced at Su Hao, but discovered that Su Hao seemed to be thinking about something.

A few seconds later.

"Iron Bamboo Leaf 0.5kg, Water Ball 0.5kg, Metal Carapace 1, Ice Spirit Water 2kg ,…"

"Find these materials."

Butterfly: "Gurgle ~"

This lazy Su Hao!

It flapped its wings and flew to the storage rack, glancing up and down rapidly.

After identifying all the materials, he recalled the list of materials Su Hao had reported and controlled his Psychic power to reach for the items needed.

In the blink of an eye, materials flew up, floated around it, and flew towards Su Hao with it.

The whole process only took about ten seconds.

Just one word. Hurry.

On another platform.

As a high-level Sprite Cultivator, Lin Xueguang observed the sprite in front of him and also quickly came up with a corresponding plan.

He thought about it, spread his fingers, and summoned his Vine Demon.

Elite-level peak-level sprites.

Lin Xueguang reported the names of the materials and pointed at the shelf in the distance. "Run faster and get everything you need."

The Vine Demon looked at him blankly and slowly typed a question mark.
