Epic Transformation: The Dragon Master Who Defies the Divine

Chapter 151: Astonishing! The All-Round Substitute!

The defeat in the Freshman Exchange Competition led many freshmen to start booing Bai Wushuang, Luo Hao, and others. However, the ripple effect was minimal because the World Championship Preliminaries, which the entire world is watching, are about to begin!

No one is paying attention to the "small matter" of the Freshman Exchange Competition anymore. As one of the top ten superpowers in the world today, Longguo Country naturally is the focal point of international attention.

With nearly ten days left until the Longguo Country preliminaries, Longdu City in Fengtian Province is already bustling and lively. During this period, anyone can clearly feel the increased number of tourists from various countries and regions.

Media reporters from various newspapers are flocking in. Every shop is hanging red banners, and the sky above the city is frequently lit up with colorful fireworks. The whole city has visibly become more bustling and prosperous.

All this is naturally because the World Championship Preliminaries are about to be held. Everyone is looking forward to it! Everyone is watching! This is also the major event that the youth across the country are most concerned about!

During this tumultuous time, Qin Fan remains highly disciplined. His daily schedule consists of practical combat classes and training with the senior members of his team.

These senior members truly witness what an "all-round player" means! At this level, the only ones qualified to act as sparring partners are fourth-year students or teaching faculty who lower their strength to form a team.

Since the fourth-year students are currently serving as reserves on the front line of the Rift Battlefield, only a few teaching faculty members can personally come down to act as the sparring team.

In a 7V7 team competition, on Qin Fan's side, there is Anna, a Destroyer, and Ge Dongshu, serving as the front line. Mu Xinyu, a Grand Magister, and Shi Tianyou, a Mechanical Overlord, are the core spellcasters.

Bian Xuetong, as a third-tier Sword Saint, is the core physical damage dealer. Nie Kexin, a Grand Sage, provides timely support buffs to the team from the rear. Qin Fan acts as a roamer, assisting his teammates by disrupting the enemy or focusing fire as needed.

The sparring team consists of seven combat instructors above level 80 who lower their strength to match up against this team of prodigies.

Before the official team list was finalized, everyone except Qin Fan and the recently arrived student council president Anna had already undergone team training. With the new lineup, especially under Qin Fan's command, everyone feels significantly more relaxed!

At least they are no longer being crushed by the instructor team! The instructors have lowered their attributes to around an average of 6000. Even with Dragon Pets banned from participating, Qin Fan's team still finds it hard to win.

However, Qin Fan's performance amazes every instructor! Firstly, in terms of tactical command, Qin Fan rarely gives more than three ineffective commands. Under his direction, the sparring team's focused attacks are always dismantled.

Even when an assassin instructor tries to kill Mu Xinyu or Shi Tianyou, Anna and Ge Dongshu manage to disrupt their attempts. Qin Fan's team's ability to focus fire is remarkable. Mu Xinyu and Bian Xuetong, the core damage dealers, always capitalize on opportunities created by their teammates.

Team competitions test the execution ability of team members and the decision-making and overall vision of the commander. These prodigies, having been trained by Xiaojiu's dragon breath, are fully convinced by Qin Fan's leadership, executing his commands flawlessly.

Qin Fan lives up to expectations. His decision-making is perfectly showcased in each sparring session, impressing every team member because even though their team is significantly weaker, they begin to feel like they have a chance to win.

The instructors from the Tactics Academy, after observing, lament that it's a waste for Qin Fan not to join them. In response, Dean He Yalan smiles with pride.

Additionally, Qin Fan's ability to seize opportunities is exceptional. Everyone knows many skills have "cast time" and "recovery time." These are moments when a player is vulnerable.

The outcome of a battle between experts often hinges on exploiting these vulnerabilities. Qin Fan excels in this, especially with his S-level talent "Demon Breaking Eye" and SSS-level talent "Divine Perception."

Even with their attributes lowered, the instructors can't find any openings in Qin Fan's defense during a sparring session. Some even get countered by him, almost losing the match.

Many instructors feel like their magic flow is being read during skill execution. Qin Fan frequently directs his teammates to interrupt the instructors' casting, putting them in awkward positions.

This ability to seize opportunities astonishes the instructors. Lastly, Qin Fan's incredible "substitute ability" stands out. When Ge Dongshu, a level 56, gets heavily injured and retreats to heal, Qin Fan steps up as the main tank with Anna, blocking the instructors' attacks.

His confidence in tanking comes from his S-level passive skill: Life Chain. Although Dragon Pets are not allowed, this passive skill is still effective. The A+ level skill "Dragon's Protection" provides a 40% damage reduction to all teammates and himself.

Thus, Qin Fan's tankiness surpasses even Anna, the designated frontline fighter! However, each hit he takes makes the three dragon cubs in his pet space chirp and scratch themselves, feeling itchy since they share 80% of his damage.

When Mu Xinyu, the core spellcaster, is targeted, Qin Fan transforms into a Dragon Mage, taking over seamlessly. The team is shocked to see that Qin Fan's dragon magic, enhanced by his 5500 wisdom attribute and second-tier skills, is even more powerful than Mu Xinyu's, providing firepower suppression!
