NOVEL NEXT Chapter 324
324 Professor Locke’s Analysis!
The atmosphere in Kyoto’s resting area was relaxed and joyful. The team members and professors took advantage of their break time to hold a summary meeting. Everyone smiled.
“Moss, I thought we would get the match point when Roderick gave you a choice. No one expected you to choose the first one instead.”
“To be honest, if Captain Bishop didn’t put in a good word for you, I would’ve gone up and given you a good beating.”
Carolyn tried to hold back her laughter and said in a severe tone, “Haha, you dare to threaten Moss? Be careful of his Magical Beasts.”
“Hehe, I think Moss’s high-level Magical Beast is so intelligent. It must know we are on the same side,” Benedict grinned, then said thoughtfully, “Moss, when I heard your reason, I thought it was extremely cool and had quite the punch. Also, it’s a done deal for us to defend our title this time!”
“Hahaha!” Everyone laughed at Benedict’s thoughtful expression.
At that moment, one of the five professors spoke, “Moss, is your Magical Beast a Sacred Tabu Sheep?”
The curious team members looked gratefully at Brady, who had raised his hand and looked at Moss with anticipation and shock. The team members were grateful to Brady because they wanted to ask Moss the same question.
However, some were afraid they would lose face if the answer were not the Sacred Tabu Sheep, while others were shy to be the first to ask. As a result, team members should have asked this question immediately after the summary meeting began.
They looked at Moss with anticipation and shock because they were looking forward to his answer. If he answered “yes,” they would still feel shocked.
Moss noticed everyone looking at him, so he nodded and smiled. “I tamed Little Seven by chance during the elite training program’s taming assessment.”
“Then you are fortunate! After mutating, only one in a million Bloodthirsty Bighorn Sheep can become a Sacred Tabu Sheep. There are less than 100,000 Bloodthirsty Bighorn Sheep on the entire Planet, meaning there might only be one Sacred Tabu Sheep every ten years.” Brady looked at Moss in a daze and sighed.
“W-What?! Only one in a million every ten years?! Moss is so lucky!”
“Lady Luck must’ve been on your side!”
…
The team members expressed their excitement and envy.
Moss also felt excited when he heard Brady’s words. It was his first time learning of the Sacred Tabu Sheep’s origin. In his excitement, he admired Brady even more.
Brady had many achievements in the spiritual energy field and was also very knowledgeable about Magical Beasts. It seemed like Moss would have to consult Brady more in the future.
Brady continued, “The Sacred Tabu Sheep Moss tamed might not necessarily have mutated. It could also be a spatial anomaly and come from another dimension.
“No matter what the situation was, although a large part of Moss’s success in taming the Sacred Tabu Sheep was due to luck, it also shows that Moss’s spiritual power and determination during the taming assessment were strong.
“Otherwise, even a young Sacred Tabu Sheep’s spiritual power would be much more powerful than a magical beast of the same age.”
Brady looked at Moss gratifyingly, his eyes filled with admiration as he spoke.
The team members looked at Moss with admiration when they heard Brady’s words. The people who thought Moss had gotten lucky just now also swept away this thought.
Sofia’s heart also surged with emotions. She looked at her watch, knocked on the writing board, and reminded everyone, “Even though the committee stated that students could use Magical Beasts in the ring, we must make ample preparations if they say otherwise.
“Our next opponents are from Aerospace University. Although we have the advantage in the one-on-one matches, we can’t take them lightly. The opponents might do the same if we preserve our strength.”
As soon as Sofia finished her sentence, she got interrupted by a prompt. “You have a new urgent notice from the organizing committee. Please check it.”
She opened her watch and looked at it carefully for a few seconds. Then she projected the information onto the big screen and said thoughtfully, “Look, the organizing committee has informed us about something.”
She knew some representatives must have reported this to the committee. Otherwise, the committee would not have issued the notice so quickly.
“This is good too. We won’t have to worry about Magical Beasts anymore and display our true abilities!” Although Sofia said this, she still thought it was a pity.
“If Moss hadn’t exposed his Sacred Tabu Sheep so early, he could’ve waited until a more crucial match later to use that trump card,” She gave Moss a meaningful look as she spoke.
“Let’s go!” Sofia looked at Bishop and said, “The afternoon matches will begin soon. It’s time for Gongji University, Changjiang University, Military University, and Shuimu University’s matches. Bishop, please lead the team to watch the matches.
“When today’s matches end, we will analyze the footage from Aerospace University’s matches and plan tomorrow’s tactics.”
“All right, Miss Sofia.” Bishop waved and led his team to the arena to watch the competition.
…
There was still half an hour before the afternoon matches. Jay Jie had a habit of arriving half an hour earlier than the appointed time.
Some presidents were already sitting on the platform when he entered the arena. Only Locke was sitting at the judging table, so he quickly walked over and started talking to Locke, “Professor Locke, didn’t you take a break this afternoon?”
“Oh, I’ve been working in the wild all year, so I must always be vigilant, so I’m used to not resting,” Locke replied.
“You seem to be in a good mental state. If there’s a chance, I’ll ask you for healthcare advice,” Jay Jie politely responded before changing the topic, “Professor Locke, which of the 16 teams do you have a better view of?”
“Eastern University, Shanghai University, Aerospace University, and Ocean University all seem stable. That’s why I’m more optimistic about Kyoto, which always brings me surprises.” Locke said smilingly.
Jay Jie smiled and nodded. “Haha, I’m starting to like Kyoto more and more, especially Moss.”
At the mention of Moss, he thought of something and asked in confusion, “Speaking of student Moss, I wonder how he tamed the Sacred Tabu Sheep. I still find it amazing when I think about it.”
