37 The Orbs Reac

Name:From Fish to Dragon Author:Hao_Abao
The heavy downpour of rain continued for an entire day and night. At times when the rain was thought to have stopped, within just minutes, the rain came pouring down once again. Not only did it rain continuously, but strong winds that were enough to blow away even trees also breezed throughout the night whilst claps of thunder could be heard

The next day, on almost every channel on Tv, news channels broadcasted about incidents happening all around the country. The strong winds blew away trees that formed a strange insignia when viewed from above ground whilst the lightning charred some hills making a similar pattern on the surface

Ye Qin watched this news and thought to himself, "Hmm, could it be that a powerful monster from the 'other side' has awakened and is causing a ruckus even here in the human world?"

The Other Side, also known as the Monster Realm where monsters reside. A long time ago, when humanity learned of a way to fight back against the monsters, they learned of a way to enter enemy territory which is known as the Monster Realm to this day. In this realm, groups of the greatest trainers go on an expedition into the Monster Realm to fight off the monsters and preventing them from entering the Human Realm

From the groups of trainers that return to the Human Realm from those expeditions, not all of them ever return. However, their deaths are not in vain. From those deaths, knowledge of unknown species of monsters are brought back to the Human Realm and are recorded into books for the future

As for the monsters, the most powerful ones stay in their homeland, sending the weaker ones to lay waste in the Human Realm. Usually only elite trainers from various universities as well as soldiers are allowed entry into the Monster Realm

The entrance to the Monster Realm is constantly guarded by elite soldiers and monitored at every second for any possible changes. Just like venturing into the Abandoned Lands, all trainers and soldiers must pass an exam to acquire a license before they can venture into the Monster Realm

The incidents caused major groups from around New China to be wary whilst the Final Exam for all highschool students continued on. Ye Qin went to have breakfast along with Wang Tao as well as Tang Yaling who joined them later on



As they ate peacefully, Sun Zan who had lost the previous day joined the trio for breakfast as his cheerfulness returned to him. Suddenly, from within the space of Ye Qin's smartwatch, the seven orbs that he and Wang Tao had found in the Abandoned Lands started glowingin a golden color simultaneously

The two brothers who realised this faced each other and frowned slightly before a single orb glew brighter whilst the others became dimmer. Taking a look at it, Ye Qin noticed the orb the characters for Monkey 'Hou' started appearing. The character that fully formed then moved down slightly from the center as the symbol of a monkey like insignia became visible just slightly above the characters

"Hou? It must be reacting to Sun Zan?" Ye Qin thought for a few seconds

Whoosh*

Taking out the orb, Ye Qin held it in one hand as he showed it to Sun Zan and asked "What do you see?"

Sun Zan looked at the orb in Ye Qin's palm before replying "What do you mean? It's just a plain old orb, there's nothing special about it."

"..."

"..."

Ye Qin and Wang Tao who obviously saw the changes looked at each other before nodding. The former than said "Sun Zan, take this and keep it in your smartwatch. As for why, I'm not sure either but it will be helpful in the future."

Sun Zan had a puzzled look on his face as he reached out to grab the orb in Ye Qin's hand. Suddenly, as he made contact with the orb, Sun Zan felt a strange but familiar sensation from the orb. The longer he held it, the more that feeling lingered deep within his heart as he kept staring at it for a few minutes before finally putting inside the space inside his smartwatch

After finishing their breakfast, the two brothers roamed around for a bit until their match against Gu Lexian begun shortly



In the arena, the empty stands just the previous night was now filled with people from the various schools that participated in the exam. Ye Qin, Wang Tao and Tang Yaling stood on one side of the field whilst their opponents stood in the other

The referee spoke into his mic as he announced the beginning of the second match of the semifinals. "Round 2 of the Semi finals begin!"

Woosh*

Both teams summoned their monsters at once, however, Ye Qin didn't face Gu Lexian himself. Instead, it was Tang Yaling and her Phantasm Phoenix whilst the other two faced Gu Lexian's team members

"Huh? Why isn't Ye Qin facing Gu Lexian?" someone in the crowd said loudly

"Does he think that he would be bullying her if he were to win?" another student speculated

"Be quiet! Who cares who faces who? It will still be exciting regardless!" someone else shouted at the two

Ye Qin and Wang Tao's monsters faced the other two monsters and used their immense aura to suppress the opponents making them want to forfeit before the battle had even begun!
