Chapter 229 - 229 Referee, He Cheated!!!
229 Referee, He Cheated!!!
“Put it in again for me to see.”
Hearing the referee say this, Xu Jun’s face immediately lit up. Then, he could not care less and directly gave a handsome move.
He threw the blank Beast Taming Card in the index at the Golden-Scaled Tiger King.
Then, under the gazes of the referee and the audience, the Golden-Scaled Tiger King, who was nearly three meters long, disappeared from the card in front of everyone.
Then, the card with mysterious patterns on the back and a tiger pattern on the front quietly floated in midair.
Perhaps because this scene was too shocking, the flying camera in charge of taking photos wished it could directly stick the camera on this Beast Taming Card.
The process of Xu Jun collecting the Golden-Scaled Tiger King was completely broadcasted by the cameras to the nearly 100,000 audience in the entire venue.
Seeing such a magical scene, the audience immediately exploded.
“Oh my god! This… is this a spatial-type ability?”
“However, spatial-type mutation items can’t collect living creatures!”
“That action just now was so handsome. With a throw of the card, he could put away such a mighty tiger.”
“Is this a new product of the Truth Group?”
“How is that possible? It’s just a small thing made by some country bumpkins. I feel very ordinary.”
“The Mutant Academy in Jiangzhou City? Has anyone heard of this place?”
“Ha, I’ve been there once. It’s an extremely ordinary city. The only characteristic… might be that the outside of the city is barren?”
“No matter what, I want to buy it!”
“Can it be released again? I didn’t see it clearly just now.”
The discussion in the audience was even so loud that Xu Jun on the arena could hear a buzzing sound.
This also made the students from the other arenas who had yet to participate curious.
However, it was not so easy for them to “see the overall situation” like the audience, so many people did not know what had happened.
They only thought that some powerful figure had appeared.
Under Arena 8, which was next door to Arena 6 where Xu Jun was, the students of the Mutant Academy in Zhongzhou City listened to the surrounding commotion and looked at Gu Hui, who had made his opponent give up resisting with just one strike on the stage. Their faces were filled with pride.
“As expected of Gu Hui. He attracted the attention of the entire audience the moment he attacked.”
“That’s right. The first place this year is ours again. It’s still more or less boring.”
“Then why don’t you try losing this first place?”
“Hahaha, that won’t do. How can we let those bumpkins climb onto our heads?”
“Sigh, as long as Gu Hui stands on the arena, we only have to wait for the team competition and actual combat to appear. How boring ~”
The teacher-in-charge of the Zhongzhou City Mutant Academy did not think anything was wrong when he heard his students open champagne at the beginning.
However, he still gestured for them to be quiet.
“Alright, there are so many people watching now. Pay attention to your image.”
“Just say those words to our own people. Don’t let the receiver go in.”
As soon as the teacher-in-charge finished speaking, another wave of exclamations came from the audience.
However, this exclamation puzzled the people in Zhongzhou City.
This was because… Gu Hui had not attacked yet!
Could it be that the local audience was so generous?
At the same time, on Arena 6, Xu Jun, who had put away the Beast Taming Card, looked at the referee and the floating camera facing him and gently threw out the Golden-Scaled Tiger King’s Beast Taming Card.
After the card spun and flew out two to three meters, the Golden-Scaled Tiger King that had just disappeared appeared on the arena again.
It was also this scene that made the audience cry out in surprise.
Below the stage, when Liu Guang heard these exclamations, he gritted his teeth and looked at Wang Xiaomao.
“Damn it! Xu Jun, that idiot, has already shown off everything in our place!”
“I’m so envious!”
Wang Xiaomao nodded in agreement.
On the arena, the referee slowly nodded after watching Xu Jun summon the Golden-Scaled Tiger King.
Then, he looked at Lan Hao, who had just stood up from the ground.
“Contestant Lan Hao, after the referee’s decision, contestant Xu Jun did not cheat. Please be prepared. The competition will resume immediately.”
With that said, the referee immediately returned to his current position.
The two assistant referees also jumped off the arena again.
“Let’s start the competition again!”
Hearing the referee’s voice, Lan Hao’s expression immediately darkened.
Xu Jun smiled cruelly at Lan Hao.
“ROAR!”
After a low roar, the Golden-Scaled Tiger King rushed towards Lan Hao again.
As for Xu Jun, he circled to Lan Hao’s side and prepared to use “two loaves of bread with cheese” to deal with this kid who liked to spout nonsense.
Looking at these two figures, Lan Hao gritted his teeth and tapped his wrist to take out a… Gatling-like weapon with six barrels.
“Damn!”
“You country bumpkin, you forced me!”
With that said, Lan Hao directly pressed the weapon with six barrels in his hand.
Du, du, du!
As the gun barrel began to spin, invisible air bullets formed a dense bullet chain from the gun barrel and shot towards the fastest Golden-Scaled Tiger King.
Because he could not see these bullets and it was not easy to dodge with this rate of fire, the Golden-Scaled Tiger King directly chose a simple and crude way to deal with them—to directly resist them.
Ding, ding, ding, ding…
A dense and crisp sound sounded from the Golden-Scaled Tiger King’s body.
Through the floating camera, the audience in the stands could even see the sparks splashing from this tiger.
“Heavens! It’s actually useless?!”
“This… this should be a six-barreled rapid fire gun produced by the Truth Corporation, right? It can trigger bullets of the corresponding attribute according to the user’s superpower. Why does it feel like it’s scratching this tiger?”
“I wonder what the people from the Truth Corporation will think when they see this?”
In the private room on the second floor of the venue, a person in charge of the Truth Corporation watched this scene with a slightly stiff expression.
Originally, he was only here as a sponsor of the competition and treated it as a vacation.
In the end, who knew that he would see his product suffer in the arena? It was ignored!
“Where did that kid come from?”
The assistant beside him immediately tapped on the communicator in his hand.
A minute later, he said respectfully,
“Minister, the student on the arena is called Xu Jun. He’s the son of the owner of the Xu Trading Company in Jiangzhou City, Xu Jin. He’s a beginner level three beast-type mutant with a wolf mutation.”
The person in charge on the sofa nodded.
“The tiger?”
The assistant opened his mouth and could only shake his head helplessly.
“There’s no specific information.”
“I only found out from the organizing committee that there’s a record of ‘special summoning-type mutant items’ that had just been applied for approval. The applicant is the dean of the Jiangzhou City Mutant Academy where Xu Jun is from, Su Hongcheng.”
Hearing the assistant’s report, the minister touched his chin and thought for a moment before saying,
“Send someone to the Mutant Academy in Jiangzhou to take a look.”
The assistant nodded and then looked at the minister on the sofa hesitantly.
“What happened?”
“Minister, we just received news that Third Young Master’s next stop seems to be in Jiangzhou City. Should we… avoid suspicion?”
Hearing the assistant’s words, the minister was stunned for a moment before waving his hand.
“No need. Just do what you have to do. Just don’t look for him.”
“Yes.”
After the assistant left, the person in the private room looked at the golden tiger on the screen and could not help but mutter to himself,
“You’re making my weapons department lose face!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
On the arena, the Golden-Scaled Tiger King jumped up. After shattering a few air walls, it directly pushed Lan Hao to the ground.
With those sharp claws pressed against Lan Hao’s throat, he only needed to exert a little strength to directly burp.
