This Summoner Is Too Powerful

The perpetrator’s laughter echoed, but the mechanical synthesized voice didn’t sound like Li Pu.

"Wow! That looks painful!"

"If it were me, I’d probably be smashed into minced meat, right?"

"As expected of the mecha, it’s my first time seeing such a primitive and violent mechanical combat style."

"Chen Hualang, can you still stand up?"

The audience stared in awe at the large screen suspended in the venue.

Initially, their eyes couldn’t discern what had just happened.

However, the organizers were rather ungracious, replaying slow-motion clips from all angles over and over again.

In the footage, Chen Hualang was repeatedly flung in slow motion.

You could see her expression shift from stunned to shocked to painful in that brief instant.

Many spectators even took out their phones to record, as this fighter might soon become a major expert in the Summoner community, and his controversies had collection value.

Liu Jisheng’s focus was slightly different from the others.

What he was focused on was Li Pu.

That "Sprint" shadow and the two activated turbos behind him—he understood them.

It was fast, definitely high speed just now.

Couple that with the entire mecha, and you could imagine how powerful that crash was.

"Is Chen Hualang an idiot for just standing and getting hit?"

"Why not take some measures!"

But what he couldn’t understand was why Chen Hualang sat there waiting to be hit.

With her second transformation, even if she couldn’t avoid it, she should at least be able to mitigate the damage.

But look at her now, she took a full frontal hit and is lying down, unable to get back up.

In fact, Chen Hualang was both pained and helpless at this moment.

She felt as though all the joints in her body had disintegrated; she couldn’t get up at all.

It seems that the frontal mecha collision wasn’t any less powerful than her Wolf Seal.

The most frustrating part was that she actually had the opportunity to dodge.

The response speed and agility of her second transformation were beyond most people’s imagination.

Yet she just couldn’t dodge!

For some unknown reason, a tremendous force pressed her down so hard she nearly shattered the floor; she was completely unable to move. Damn it!

At this time, Li Pu was also somewhat helpless.

Unit 2, when fused, surprisingly possessed the ability to autonomously leap out and speak.

The laugh earlier might make others think he’s a maniac.

But now, maybe it’s better to focus on the opponent.

[Are you okay, senior?]

He walked over to Chen Hualang.

At this moment, Chen Hualang had returned to human form.

The five Five-Element Wolf beasts were simultaneously lying around.

When attacked while fused, it equated to them being harmed too.

"..."

Chen Hualang wanted to say she was fine but couldn’t produce a sound, only raised a finger.

Seeing this situation, Li Pu certainly wouldn’t continue attacking.

The composite "Sprint" he had just performed with full force, and her being able to withstand it frontally while remaining conscious was already remarkable.

Know that the little monster beasts in the third-year dungeons usually explode directly when he hits them.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman appeared slowly.

Through previous observations, Li Pu knew she was the referee, but didn’t know if she was from a different race or a summoning beast.

The referee checked Chen Hualang’s condition, then pulled out a microphone from thin air.

[In this match, Li Pu, the exchange student from the Imperial Capital, wins]

She announced Li Pu’s victory in a calm tone without fluctuation.

Thus, he advanced smoothly to the next round, becoming one of the 32 finalists in the five-round group.

In the audience, Wu Guinan and the others greeted him.

"I knew you’d definitely win."

"And quite easily too."

"Impressive, impressive."

[Damn!]

Scarecrow: If Ben Cao had taken action, it would have been resolved even easier!

The scarecrow rubbed its hands, boosting morale.

In contrast, the other summoning beasts, Ugly Wolf had run off somewhere wearing Bu Bu’s hat.

After returning, the couple occupied two seats and started sleeping soundly.

Unit 2, depleted due to fusion, turned into a model and hid in his pocket to recuperate.

"Here’s the info on your next round’s opponent."

This was Chang Shoushang handing a paper to Li Pu.

"So little information."

Seeing the sparse lines, Li Pu furrowed his eyebrows.

"No choice, read and you’ll understand."

Chang Shoushang shrugged; the intelligence gathered was indeed limited within the available time.

"Long Corridor University, where is it?"

Just the school’s name left Li Pu dumbfounded.

It was an unheard-of, obscure university.

"Surname Xin, given name Ling, that surname is rare."

From the introduction, Li Pu understood why there was so little information.

This senior had transferred from the outer district to the China district last semester and hadn’t shown any prominence in China district universities before then.

This time, few from Long Corridor University came to participate; hence it’s hard to gather any information.

"Oh... she’s only in third-year?"

This detail caught Li Pu’s attention: "Achieving five rounds at third-year, she’s undoubtedly a genius."

But this remark drew eye rolls from the crowd.

Wu Guinan: "I suspect you’re praising yourself."

Long Ren: "I suspect you’re trying to show off."

Qian Shanshan: "Why don’t you mention you completed five rounds in first-year; what are you then?"

"Me?"

Li Pu shrugged: "I’m obviously a great genius."

His demeanor left everyone speechless.

The first round of the five-round group was almost over, finally ending close to midnight.

The subsequent battles were the 32-strong showdown for the second round.

Li Pu didn’t miss a match until the next evening after the first round ended; he awaited his turn.

On the arena, the two stood facing each other.

He finally had the chance to face his opponent this time, senior Xin Ling.

Fair skin, a high nose bridge, large eyes—she appeared to possess some Northwest bloodline.

Most striking were her eyes, each of a different color.

One was the typical brown representing the China district, the other lightly green with exotic charm.

"Junior Li Pu, I watched your performance last round, it was impressive."

Xin Ling said so, though her face showed no signs of worry.

"Senior is also formidable."

Li Pu returned the courtesy, his expression equally bland.

[Beep!]

[Beep!]

[Beep... buzz!]

With the sound of model buzzing, the match officially began.

Curiously, neither side adopted a preemptive strike strategy.

Instead, they amicably maintained distance.

Xin Ling’s summoners were of the unimpressive type.

A unicorn with crystal flower buds, the Flower Horned Beast.

A winged tiger, the Flying Tiger.

A mechanical crab with claws as cannon mouths, the Cannon Cannon Crab.

A creature resembling both snake and lizard, the multi-legged snake with three pairs of legs.

And a self-moving empty armor, actually a spectral type summoning beast, the Spectral Armor.

These summoning beasts didn’t form any particular synergy.

Yet Xin Ling easily passed the first round.

Plus, Li Pu watched her bypass it quite effortlessly.

As fellow second-round participants, he wouldn’t lower his guard.

The strategy for this match was already planned.

Since his Mecha Technique was exposed, he might as well continue using it.

"Come."

Thus he gestured to Unit 2.

[You wish, Summoner!]

Unit 2 obediently floated over.

Buzz!

After a flash of light, the mecha once again adhered to him.

Oddly, Xin Ling showed no intention of interference.

With a smile, she quietly stood watching him complete the "Attachment."

[?]

Li Pu couldn’t comprehend her actions.

But in the scope of his retina, she was already locked in.

His upcoming strategy was simple—charge.
