My Card Beast Taming Game

He still has a lot of room for improvement.

It's six o'clock.

Cao Shoushan announced the official disbandment, and everyone will meet at the same time and place tomorrow.

The students on the school team immediately looked like zombies after work, dragging their tired bodies away in a car.

Although there were only six games played from beginning to end, the psychological pressure on everyone was multiplied. Everyone wanted to make a good impression on the coaches on the first day.

Many of the six teams had lost all day, and some had even had their cards repaired six or seven times. Their expressions were extremely desperate, and they probably would have burst into tears on the spot if there hadn't been so many people around them.

Zhou Chen and the Chow Chow walked towards the arena where the individual competition was being held, chatting about their thoughts on the day along the way.

"Thoughts... Shocker is pretty fast."

"Shock speed? Your focus is quite peculiar."

After a full day of battles, Zhou Chen's biggest impression was his card repair speed; damaged spirit cards were retrieved in less than ten minutes.

Outside the arena, Lu Qingning seemed to have been waiting for a long time. Just as she was about to greet him, she spotted the one-horned Chow Chow at Zhou Chen's feet.

She squinted at it.

"Then I'll go?"

The Chow Chow stopped sensibly and said, "I'll call a car for you two."

Zhou Chen didn't stop them, and stepped forward to share her experiences of the day with Lu Qingning.

Compared to the lively atmosphere of the team competition with thirty or forty people, the individual competition and the individual team competition seemed rather quiet.

The two teams participating in the first event were separated in the morning, but they came together in the afternoon to practice against each other.

After all, it's all one-on-one.

To Lu Qingning's regret, Jin Siye did not appear at all. The gap between the Gold and Silver ranks was too great, and the two were not even in the same league, so there was naturally no need for them to spar on the first day.

"Did you fight with Hyunyama?"

"We fought, and we lost."

Zhou Chen was quite surprised to hear this, "Lost?"

Lu Qingning nodded and said, "The water Fiend caused more damage than I expected, and the Netherflame Lion couldn't withstand it."

So it was a water-related affliction.

That's fine.

When the White Ape fought the Ink Ze Crocodile, it wasn't touched by its blade at all. It was only at the last moment of its power that it was injured by the crocodile's bite and the blade.

Therefore, Zhou Chen had no concept of the power of the water elemental force.

The two chatted for a while longer, and when they vaguely saw the Pegasus carriage that the Chow Chow had summoned, they gently embraced each other.

"come on!"

"Yeah, you keep it up too."

Their embrace was brief, yet exceptionally warm.

The next day.

The six teams were divided into two groups.

Four teams without magical artifacts were divided into two groups, while two teams with magical artifacts were divided into two groups, each facing off against a four-person team and a five-person team composed of teaching assistants.

A team of four will carry two magical artifacts, and a team of five will carry three magical artifacts.

These are teaching aids that will be used during training. They are temporarily lent to the teaching assistants and are managed by Cao Shoushan.

It's not that they don't trust them, but the three academies are very strict in managing spiritual artifacts. Even the spiritual artifacts that students apply for are still under the jurisdiction of the school team coaches, and they will be temporarily taken back when students leave school to prevent any possibility of loss.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these things are generally applicable to Bronze and Silver tier spirit cards. Spirit cards themselves can be upgraded and evolved. Bronze tier spirit cards with spirit artifacts will not be weak even when they reach the Gold tier, and Silver tier spirit cards can extend their strength to the Platinum tier.

This is similar to the game Zhou Chen played in his previous life.

"We'll win today's match if we can, but even if we can't, we must eliminate as many spirit cards as possible," Su Xuanzhen said solemnly.

Although everyone is a novice card master, their spiritual energy reserves and combat experience differ.

Fortunately, their team had two veterans, Wenren Shiyue and Luo Linchuan, who had fought against the assistant coaches in the previous and even the year before, including some of their former teammates.

They won all three games yesterday morning and three games yesterday afternoon. Can they maintain their winning streak today?

Su Xuanzhen looked at Zhou Chen, Wenren Shiyue, and Luo Linchuan with anticipation.

then.

It was noon.

“No, we’ve become the weak point.” Su Xuanzhen looked at Lin Meng, who said dejectedly, “I’m sorry.”

Su Xuanzhen quickly said, "I'm not blaming you, there's no need to apologize."

Wenren Shiyue also comforted her, saying, "You don't have my high mobility, and your spirit card isn't as tough as the Rock Pattern Guardian, so it's normal that you can't hold on."

They played a total of four games in the morning, two against the assistant coach team and two against Wen Zhaoce's team.

The former loses everything, while the latter wins everything.

But no matter which time, Lin Meng, as the tank, always lost points the fastest, followed by Su Xuanzhen, the main commander.

Furthermore, Zhou Chen's White Ape was targeted.

Their team has a debuff support who targets White Ape the entire time, sparing no one else. He slows down White Ape, reduces its attack, and imprisons and slows it down – it's absolutely disgusting.

Su Xuanzhen's Soul-Soothing Frog could have removed these effects, but by then he was already out of the game.

The opposing team has two damage dealers, one with great power and the other with a wide area of ​​effect.

The one with the wide range is also targeting the white ape, and will immediately activate its skill as soon as the ape goes invisible.

Most importantly, their card creatures are positioned very closely together, so they don't have to worry about whether their attacks will hit their teammates.

On the other hand, apart from Luo Linchuan, the rest of Zhou Chen's group were positioned far apart to avoid accidental injury.

It's understandable that Wenren Shiyue's Thunder Dragon, as a high-speed assault-type damage dealer, would be out of sync with the team.

The distance between Zhou Chen, Su Xuanzhen, and Lin Meng was generally no less than five meters, and sometimes ten or twenty meters was quite normal.

It's fair to say that the opposing team has far more experience in team combat than they do.

Chapter 199: Reality Artifacts (44/228)

in the afternoon.

Su Xuanzhen tried to change tactics, but the situation did not improve.

Wenren Shiyue was too far out of control and was targeted by the five people who ganged up on her. The group tried to chase and rescue her, but they fell into the enemy's trap and launched a counterattack.

Su Xuanzhen's tendency to take risks has become apparent.

He used to be able to deflect taunts with his mental fervor, but this time, he anticipated his opponent's attack, and Lingka's reaction couldn't keep up.

It was only thanks to the Rockweave Guard's quick reaction that they managed to barely block the attack by throwing their shields.

In terms of defense, Luo Linchuan's actions were impeccable, but Su Xuanzhen didn't know how to improve after losing so many times.

The more you command them, the easier it is to send the Rock Pattern Guards to do strange things.

For example, blocking skills for the white ape ten meters away, or guiding the Sky Dragon flying back in the sky.

Cao Shoushan rebuked him for having an overly strong "victim mentality."

"You think that because you don't have a magical artifact, you're someone who can be sacrificed, is that right? Have you ever thought that the commander is the heart of the team, and all tactics should revolve around you?"

"..."

Su Xuanzhen had no way to refute it.

He certainly understood this simple and easy-to-understand principle, and the tactics he had employed over the past two days had indeed revolved around Zhou Chen and Wenren Shiyue.

However, if the two fail to quickly defeat either opponent, they themselves will be the ones to be defeated instead.

Day three.

Having learned his lesson, Su Xuanzhen abandoned any more unorthodox tactics and devised the most basic strategy based on the team's composition.

[Free-range output turtle shell flow].

He replaced the buff-type Soul-Soothing Frog with the healing-type White Feather Moth, and then had Lin Meng and Luo Linchuan protect him closely throughout the entire process.

Zhou Chen and Wenren Shiyue were responsible for going out to cause trouble. Once they consumed too many debuffs or got injured, they would come back for treatment and then go out to fight again.

This tactic can easily leave the two damage dealers isolated and helpless, but the Thunder Dragon and the White Ape King are both extremely mobile and can coordinate with each other to block some attacks.

For example, when the White Ape is slowed down and about to be hit by a wide-range skill, the Sky Dragon immediately rushes over, grabs it, and throws it back into their half of the field.

For example, the White Ape King wielded his sword to block some powerful, small-range attacks for the Sky Dragon, preventing it from losing its ability to move.

Once the opponents began to attack Su Xuanzhen and his companions with all their might, the two of them would harass them relentlessly.

A match that was supposed to last ten minutes was dragged out to half an hour. Not to mention the card players who were constantly moving around, even the card creatures were exhausted.

In the Youth Championships, a team match lasts only half an hour; if it exceeds that, the winner is determined by the number of players.

Currently, the headcount ratio between the assistant coach team and Zhou Chen's team is 1 to 2.

"We won!!"

Su Xuanzhen raised his arms high and let out a hearty cheer. Even if it wasn't a complete victory, even if he won in this way, he was genuinely happy.

Zhou Chen and the others did the same, raising their palms and striking them together forcefully, producing a crisp sound.

Snapped!

This is the music of victory!

Team synergy needs to be cultivated through victories. A team that keeps losing won't go far, but when facing a strong opponent, even winning just one game can bring about a dramatic change.

"Let's start from here, proceed steadily and surely. This is definitely not our end, but a brand new beginning!"

Su Xuanzhen was very good at persuasion; many of the things he said had an extraordinary power to convince people.

Zhou Chen took a deep breath, and felt the joy of the competition even more.

The next day was the weekend.

The school team also gets holidays, even if it's just one day out of seven, it's better than no holidays at all.

Not wanting to waste precious time, Su Xuanzhen took the initiative to invite the group to the arena to practice their positioning and teamwork, and to enhance their familiarity with each other.

Why is the teaching assistant team so tightly packed?

The reason is that they are very clear about the range of their teammates' skills, and can always retreat outside the range as soon as possible before quickly returning to their original positions.

The stance was also something Zhou Chen practiced the most with Lu Qingning and Han Baobao, relying entirely on daily practice to build up their skills.

This kind of thing requires five people to work together; one genius is not enough.

After practicing his sword under Hai Sheng's supervision at noon, Zhou Chen returned to the Baize Palace in the afternoon to continue studying array domains. His earnest demeanor drew criticism from the unicorn lion.

"Why don't you take a break? Some things can't be rushed."

"I want to make it a habit."

Zhou Chen resisted the temptation of a holiday. He knew the importance of balancing work and rest, but he also wanted to let his body adapt to the current pace, just like playing a game.

to be frank.

He began to love the feeling of being exposed to new things every day.

This made him feel that time was moving very slowly.

When I was staying at home before, I always felt like the next day would arrive in the blink of an eye. Even though I hadn't done anything, time seemed to have been stolen away.

-

The Auspicious Rain Palace in the dead of night.

Zhou Chen returned from the dungeon and collapsed wearily onto the bed.

The Cloud Mist Witch stood on his back, kneading his breasts; the Long Cry Captain used his sharp claws to relieve the muscles in his shoulders and neck; and finally, the Spirit of the Sea.

This guy turned into a water ball and rolled all over his body.
