The battle with Liu Ren only spent less than a third of the break time.

Su Hao sat on a chair by the lake, enjoying the cool breeze. He looked at the couples in pairs around the artificial lake…

Then he looked at Liu Ren, the pancake face not far away.

He only felt a cold, jealous feeling on his face.

He couldn't sit still anymore.

He got up and left.

The moment he returned to the classroom, he heard Classmate A, whose name he couldn't remember, tell him that Old Gu was looking for him just now.

Immediately, Su Hao went to the office, knocked on the door, then pushed it open to enter.

"Ms. Gu…"

Old Gu, the dean of Education, who was not as prominent as the history teacher in the Mediterranean, had a smile on his face as he looked at Su Hao with great gratification.

The old consultant replied, "You contracted a Water Spirit Foal. That's not too bad. What plans do you have in the future?"

Su Hao thought about it. "I don't have any special plans. It should be regular training after that."

"You won't leave An City again, right?"

"I'm not leaving."

The tactical systems of Reverie Butterfly and Flaming Cloud Crow had basically been formed, they only needed to follow the training plan.

Water Spirit Foal… He hadn't thought of it yet, but in order to become a strong rider as soon as possible, Su Hao didn't plan for any special training for it before its evolution.

It only took regular training to constantly strengthen a sprite's physique and spiritual force.

Under the nurturing of special water-element treasures, its evolution would gradually lean towards the hidden Water Qilin pathway.

Apart from the fact that he had to leave for a trip to the New World during the evolution process, Su Hao really didn't think of going to any other places in particular.

"That's good."

Old Gu suddenly looked relieved.

Su Hao was puzzled.

"It's like this. In a few days, other schools will come to challenge one another… Cough, commonly known as the battle exchange, its purpose is to gain experience and improve the battle level of sprites. But after all, this is the home field of our An City First High, it wouldn't look good if we lost…"

Old Gu said so.

However, Su Hao felt that things weren't that simple. It was only after a round of questioning when he understood the cause and effect.

A while ago, a First High teacher brought Liu Ren, Gu Lingyao and other top students to the high schools in other cities for battle exchanges.

They visited three high schools in a row and won all of them.

At that time, Old Gu was very proud.

After all, An City's education system was ranked among the lowest in the province. In the past, they might not even win their brother in hardship like Ping City First High.

But now, they had won a few high schools in the province.

Then…

Then, they were issued a challenge.

"They're from Yang City High School. They produce several students who managed to enroll in prestigious schools every batch."

Su Hao pondered.

After thinking for a while.

He still hadn't figured out what Yang City High School was… He did know Yang City, and it wasn't too far from An City.

"Yang City High School can't really compare to Yunhua First High, right?"

"They are a bit lacking."

"Are there any particularly strong contestants?"

"You can handle them all."

Su Hao lost interest right away.

Was he someone who liked torturing noobs?

He was!

But those were too lousy.

Even if he did, it wouldn't bring any sense of accomplishment to his empty and lonely heart.

Old Gu seemed to have noticed Su Hao's lack of interest. He threw out his trump card.

"There are rewards."

"The friendly match is a round-robin battle between ten sprites from each side. The winner will receive a prize jointly provided by both schools."

"A cultivation resource worth 200,000 yuan."

"The one who contributes the most can get the big prize."

Old Gu, oh, Old Gu, how can you judge people with your old taste?

He, Su Hao, was no longer someone who coveted those rewards.

He declined decisively.

"Mr. Gu, I think you should reserve this opportunity to bring honor to the school and get rewards for others."

"Look, only 10 out of 100 students from our batch can participate. There are already very few spots in the first place. How can I occupy another spot? That's unfair to them."

"Besides, the purpose of the battle exchange is to allow the contestants to achieve better results in the College Entrance Examination. Only when the outcome is uncertain, or even at a disadvantage, can they exceed their limits."

"We have to be brave enough to accept the challenge, Mr. Gu."

Old Gu was a little shocked.

The Su Hao in his eyes seemed to have a bright glow behind him.

What a noble quality man.

He couldn't help but reflect.

Yes, he cared too much about winning and losing.

Was that important? Not at all!

The most important thing was...First High could get one more student to enroll in a Sprite University, a key university, and a prestigious sprite school!

Old Gu understood.

He became someone without any desires.

"Yang City High School is a strong enemy, but it's also the best chance for Liu Ren and the others to break through their capabilities."

Su Hao nodded, very pleased with the outcome.

"Don't worry, Teacher Gu, Liu Ren and the rest… can win."

...

An City First High was especially outstanding this year.

Liu Ren and the other nine main players who were participating in the friendly match, together with five substitutes, all had the ability to get into key sprite universities.

The school had given some resources to nurture these people.

They didn't disappoint. Every afternoon after school, they trained in the battle hall and commanded their sprites to spar.

What made them feel was a pity was that their sprites were too familiar with each other. They only exchanged a few moves, and after sparring for a while, they found it boring, so they just went to train their own sprites.

At this moment…

There were three people in the surroundings, and they were a little distracted.

Among the ten main forces, they were the three weakest students. There was a relatively clear disparity between them and the others.

"Great God Su is back. He will definitely have a spot in the friendly match in a few days. Will I be eliminated?"

They had no complaints about being rejected because of Great God Su.

But disappointment was inevitable.

Even if their opponent was the strong Yang City High School and they might lose if they went on stage, who was willing to give up the opportunity to showcase themselves and fight for resources?

At this moment.

A figure and a few sprites appeared at the entrance of the battle hall.

The visitor cleared his throat.

"From today onwards, I'm your coach. My goal is to guide all of you… in defeating the contestants from Yang City High School in a few days."

"Huh?"

Liu Ren turned around.

Upon seeing that familiar figure, pancake face was filled with confusion.

...

"Old Su, why are you… wearing Coach's clothes?"

"Of course it's because I'm not participating in the match."

What he told Old Gu was not entirely false.

It was meaningless for him to defeat the Yang City competitors.

To Liu Ren and the others, a slightly stronger opponent was a very good whetstone.

He was happy to help his classmates.

Su Hao held the sprite data of Liu Ren and the others in his hand.

And one more.

It was the information about the outstanding students of Yang City High School.

He flipped through them. Indeed, none of them could fight.

This was also the standard of Liu Ren and the others.

But there were too many of them, so An City First High had a low chance of winning.

He looked at the fifteen people present. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, revealing Coach Xiong's fake smile.

"From today onwards, I will carry out special training for all of you. Furthermore, on the day of the round-robin battle, I will arrange tactics, a battle order, and analysis of the enemy's weaknesses, so that all of you can rely on your own strength to defeat strong enemies."

He paused for a moment before carrying a Reverie Butterfly in front of him.

"Now, let's have a battle, with my Reverie Butterfly against… all your sprites."

Liu Ren: "???"

Li Songting: "???"

Dream Butterfly: "m (⊙ ▽ ⊙) m?"

How did this happen again, coo?!
