My starting summon is a small skeleton-Chapter 159 - 157 Playoffs Over

As the BGM "How Lonely It Is to Be Invincible" played,

today’s additional match officially ended.

There was no need to continue fighting.

The additional match was meant to determine the top four teams, and once a team was eliminated, there was no reason to continue. Team 001 had already suffered two consecutive defeats and was swept out.

The competition is now over!

Everyone might as well go home and find their moms!

Yet, at that moment, both online and onsite spectators were in a state of confusion.

They didn’t react for a long time.

It wasn’t until the referee’s reminder that they woke up from the dream and realized the match had really ended.

Teams 018 and 042 advanced while team 001, one of the ace teams of this competition and the only local ace of Jiangnan, was shockingly eliminated.

This caused many locals, who take great pride in their hometown, to be particularly confused and worried.

There was only that one ace team in Jiangnan, and they were eliminated before even reaching the finals.

What were they supposed to do now? Who would contend with the three foreign teams picking cherries in the finals?

Of course, where there was confusion, there were also those who caught on quick.

Their minds spun—hold on!

Wasn’t team 042, who took down 001, also from Jiangnan? They might have lost 001, but they still had 042!

The daunting task of combating the foreign teams naturally transitioned to team 042, and if team 042 could take down team 001, they surely had a better chance against the three foreign teams.

With such smart thinking, they were immediately fired up.

They even started chanting slogans in the venue and on the live broadcast.

Something like "042 is invincible, down with the foreign trash."

Oddly enough, these slogans were quite inspiring, but they were somewhat embarrassing for the three foreign teams who were present.

From Group A, team 002, and from Group B, teams 044 and 066, all ace foreign teams, quietly made their exit when these slogans began.

It was quite the coincidence that the three teams left at the same time and bumped into each other at the exit.

Since they ran into each other, a conversation was inevitable.

Fang Bai from team 002 was the first to speak, "It seems Jiangnan is truly declining; such mediocre teams can actually stand on the same stage as us.

It seems my earlier prediction was right; the top three contenders are still us three."

"You can’t say that. There are still some decent teams in Jiangnan, like 042 and 003!" Wang Jun pushed up his glasses.

Fang Bai sneered with undisguised contempt, "003 is okay, I guess, but as for 042, I’ll repeat what I said before—if it were a Cultivation Master competition, he alone could suppress us all. But this is a Summoner competition, and even though he took down 001, he’s still a nobody in my eyes."

"How do you know that what you’re seeing is all their strength?

And their ability has already improved significantly compared to the preliminaries.

There’s still a week until the top eight battle; maybe by then, their strength will have improved further. Be careful not to get thrashed by them then."

Wang Jun clearly held high regard for Lu Wu, but his words only made Fang Bai more scornful.

"Don’t even give him a week; even a month wouldn’t be enough for him!"

With that, Fang Bai walked off with his teammates.

...

Meanwhile, in the audience stands.

Jiang Beifeng sat in his chair, dazed, muttering under his breath, ’How could this happen? How is it possible? Team 001 should have been absolutely impossible to defeat.’

It wasn’t that he lacked the ability to face reality.

It’s just that the outcome was completely unexpected.

Jiang Beifeng had calculated every possibility before acting.

No matter how he calculated, Lu Wu was not supposed to win.

Even after tripling the displayed power of Lu Wu’s team, they still wouldn’t have won.

They were already being super cautious!

But what happened?

As soon as the match started, Lu Wu’s side started to cheat.

First, that pig made a breakthrough during the match with a Skill Awakening.

Jiang Beifeng could still tolerate that.

But when it came to Little Skeleton, he couldn’t take it anymore; it was supposed to be 1 star, he had even checked before the match, but suddenly on stage, it turned into 2 stars.

And that wasn’t the worst part; Little Skeleton summoned three half-Elite Level [White Bone Wild Boars] right on the stage.

These half-Elite White Bone Wild Boars had strong combat power, almost comparable to an ordinary 1-star Elite, and Little Skeleton released three at once.

Jiang Beifeng had to endure that too!

Anyway, Big Rock had strong defenses and was overall a good counter to Little Skeleton; Little Skeleton’s Ghost Fire Skill couldn’t kill Big Rock.

Just when Jiang Beifeng thought Little Skeleton couldn’t break through the defense, it directly smashed an advanced Thunder Attribute Magic.

An Undead Summoned Beast using Thunder, aren’t you afraid of killing yourself?

Such a terrifying Thunder Attribute Magic, smashing down three times, is this still a skeleton?

Now Jiang Beifeng really wanted to report Lu Wu for cheating.

Report Little Skeleton for cheating, but where to report?

Moreover, for Jiang Beifeng, the most important issue was no longer whether Little Skeleton and the others were cheating, but what he should do next?

50,000 points!

He was betting in the name of Jiangbei University!

The 50,000 points had to be coughed up by Jiangbei University, and although the university could afford it, the question was, would he still be the director of admissions after giving away these points?

Jiang Beifeng felt he was probably not far from cleaning toilets.

"Ah, should I consider switching jobs?"

While Jiang Beifeng was pondering this deeply significant issue.

On the other side of the spectator stands, Hengheng Monster was so shocked that she was speechless.

She had never expected Lu Wu to actually win this match, especially against their ace team 001, which her side had no confidence in confronting.

Does this mean Lu Wu is now stronger than her?

Does she still have a chance to make Lu Wu cry?

No!

Hengheng Monster felt that she should be worried about possibly facing Lu Wu in the upcoming top eight.

If she really ran into Lu Wu during the top eight, Hengheng Monster felt she might be made to cry again.

Just the thought made Hengheng Monster particularly anxious.

"Maybe I should just drop out of the competition!"

...

On the other hand, a hundred miles away from Fucheng, over the sea.

Here, there was a group of Summoned Beasts congregated by hundreds.

Leading this group was the little goldfish Lu Wu had fished out, and it was already sensing Lu Wu’s presence.

The bad guy who had kept it in a dark box for months and then threw it out as just a fish wasn’t far ahead.

The little goldfish got excited, rallying its minions, it sped up heading straight for Fucheng...

...

Sorry, I have something tonight, got back late, this chapter is a bit short.
