Chapter 24 The Missing Figure

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The sky is high and the clouds are pale, and the energy swallows thousands of miles like a tiger.

One hunting team after another, holding battle flags, lined up forward, circled the hunting ground, and finally stood in front of the rostrum.

The furnishings and seats on the rostrum are the same as those at the opening ceremony. However, the original bright red curtain with a single color was replaced by four-color curtains from the four colleges because of the closing ceremony. The Tianyuan local emblem of Jiuyou College,

The Silver Alpha emblem of Alpha College, the iron triangle of Atlas, and the six-pointed star of Starry Sky Academy are arranged neatly around the left and right sides of the First University's regular prism, hanging in mid-air above the curtain, shining brightly in the sunlight.

Waves of powerful magic waves slowly swirled and flowed between the curtains.

The deans of Jiuyou College of First University, retired old deans, honorary professors, senior professors and chief lecturers of First University, senior old workers of the school working committee, and representatives of some research institutes, in order

Sitting at the left end of the central axis, just like the opening ceremony.

Outsiders who came to attend the opening ceremony included representatives of many famous wizarding families such as Cullen, O'Brien, Jiang family, Zhang family, as well as members of the Gypsy Witches, Teutonic Knights, Trinity Brotherhood, Dragons, etc.

Representatives of other wizarding groups such as Hushan and Baiyun Temple, as well as representatives of some famous hunting teams, diplomats from extraterrestrial civilizations, etc., sat on the right side of the central axis on a first-come, first-served basis.

In the surrounding stands, the cheers became louder and louder. Even if the little morning flowers behind everyone's chairs suppressed the vines until they turned purple, they could not suppress the enthusiasm of the students, and their voices became weaker and weaker.

Especially when everyone knew that Su Shijun was still sitting in the stands.

Especially when I heard that famous hunting teams would sign outstanding hunters from many schools on the spot after the closing ceremony.

Standing at the forefront of all hunting teams is the Judgment Hunting Team.

Hoffman dragged a huge demon snake and stood at the front of the hunting team. On the snake's head was the scales battle flag of the Judgment Hunting Team. Behind him, other hunters of the Judgment Hunting Team used several slender sticks.

The luminous rope was holding several monsters such as jackals, wolves, tigers, and tigers. Looking around, the other hunting teams standing behind the Judgment Hunting Team also had their own 'live prisoners'.

Except for the dead monsters on the hunting ground, many of them will be captured by the hunting teams and taken away from the hunting ground. This is because compared to dead monsters, living monsters create more profits - for example, demon blood, a dead monster only

It can provide three to five liters of blood, and the demon blood may be contaminated; and a living demon can continuously provide demon blood - not to mention various laboratories involving demons' magical plants, potions, talismans, etc.

, the training grounds of major hunting teams, etc., all have huge demand for live monsters.

As for the source of food for feeding monsters, wizards have long learned to use alchemy to synthesize magical 'feed'.

Of course, no matter what, raising demons is a very dangerous and controversial topic. Only a few institutions such as First University and the Moon Council have obtained relevant permissions from the Wizards' Union.

The hunting team, through these transactions, can exchange for various resources that the hunters urgently need, helping them go further on the path of wizards. Therefore, generally speaking, the more powerful the hunting team, the more they like to be on the hunting ground.

Capturing live monsters - these prey obtained in the hunting grounds, whether dead or alive, belong to the hunting team themselves, and the organizers of the hunting club will only take a small commission from them.

On the one hand, this is to encourage young wizards to form their own hunting teams and obtain the resources needed to advance to wizards; on the other hand, this is also a long-standing tradition in the wizarding world. Including the 'World Cup', 'Zeus Cup' and 'Super Hunting Ground'

and other famous events, always follow this principle.

Of course, compared with the cross-world 'Super Hunting Ground' or the cross-continental 'Zeus Cup', the 'Academy Cup' is not large in scale and not high in intensity, but it is an event with the greatest concentration of the best young hunters in the wizarding world.

With a big reputation, the organizers of the hunting club will be more generous accordingly. Even the hunting club's spin-off events, such as the freshman competition that Zheng Qing participated in, also received such discounts.

After all the hunting teams participating in the competition had finished lining up one by one and the atmosphere in the surrounding stands had calmed down a little, Lao Yao stood up and took two steps forward, holding a tall staff.

He raised his hand and pressed Void.

A heavy pressure suddenly enveloped everyone. The originally noisy hunting ground suddenly became quiet. Everyone focused their attention on Lao Yao who was standing in front of the rostrum.

"I have forgotten how many times this is the first time I have participated in the 'College Cup' hunting party."

"But I am still very happy to see that there is a steady influx of young and fresh faces into our hunting grounds."

“This is the first university’s good fortune.”

"The goal of First University is to cultivate young wizards with dreams who have rich accumulation of knowledge, can give full play to their talents, have their own perseverance and faith in their hearts, and can protect the starry sky outside."

"Fortunately, our four colleges are all working hard to fulfill their missions and traditions..."

Zheng Qing was listening intently to Lao Yao's speech when suddenly someone poked him in the arm.

He looked back.

"Did you see that he is the only serving dean on the stage?" Xiao Xiao lowered his voice and whispered: "It seems that the school also knew that something could not be hidden, so it simply exposed it openly... Anyway, there was nothing

People dare to take advantage of the school."

Zheng Qing moved the telescope in his hand and scanned the seats behind the rostrum.

Sure enough, as Xiao Xiao said, except for Lao Yao, the three principals and the other three deans were nowhere to be seen on the stage. Although there were still a few with gray hair, and the sign in front of them said 'Honorary Vice President' and 'Honorary Academy'

The old wizard with the title "Sitting behind Lao Yao, but they are more like some kind of mascots, all of them are drowsy and wandering around."

"Something, what is it?" Zheng Qing turned the telescope and asked in a low voice. More than once, he heard others speculate that the school seemed to be brewing a big event - it seems that this year's resurgence of the Silent Forest was earlier than expected, all because of this

Reason - many of the school's senior wizards are dealing with this matter.

"How do I know?" Xiao Xiao's tone clearly revealed some dissatisfaction: "If I knew, I probably wouldn't sit here and watch the game."

"Well, that's right." Zheng Qing smacked his lips and suddenly realized: "But we still took the magic writing, divination and other courses last week as normal..."

"It's just relatively speaking. They won't waste their precious time on this kind of closing ceremony. And I doubt how much longer they can teach us..." After saying this, Xiao Xiao suddenly lost his voice, and then his tone was weird.

She yelled: "Hey, that's Su Shijun! Is she waving at me?!!"

Zheng Qing's hair suddenly exploded, and he suddenly felt a chill rushing over his body.
