Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 308 The God of Green Hats
As the thirteen teams took to the stage and waved to the audience in gratitude, cheers erupted from all over the country.

The biennial National College Glory League is undoubtedly an even more exciting day than Awakening Day.

This day was deliberately chosen to fall on a weekend, and almost all companies and factories, except for some special industries and important departments, took a day off.

Even without a holiday, employees were not in the mood to work, and people gathered together to watch this biennial grand event.

Upon seeing a team from the same city, or a team they liked, bursts of discussion and cheers immediately erupted.

Guanglin, Hongyun University.

At this moment, all the teachers and students gathered at the training ground to watch the live broadcast on the big screen.

When the Red Cloud team appeared, the students cheered excitedly, and the huge sound wave made the entire campus tremble slightly.

Among them, the Jianghu Martial Arts Society was the most excited.

The five main members of the Hongyun team, except for Yu Qiao, are all from the Jianghu Martial Arts Society.

The performance of the Hongyun team in the previous rookie challenge had already exceeded the expectations of all teachers and students.

"Standing on the national stage, Brother Feng, you did it."

Looking at the familiar figure on the screen, Gao Hai's eyes were filled with excitement.

Who could have imagined that on Awakening Day two years ago, Lin Feng's seemingly arrogant and even somewhat crazy words would actually come true?

And it only took two years.

Yang Fan was equally excited.

He's been under a lot of pressure these days.

Since Lin Feng and his four companions became the main members of the Red Cloud Team, the Jianghu Martial Arts Society has not experienced rapid development; instead, it has been severely suppressed.

Because Lin Feng and his team have taken over the main positions, the two sides have already broken off relations and have no scruples whatsoever.

Although Yang Ningbing was kicked out of the team and left in a sorry state, as the president of the student council, the student council's influence was not affected.

Although Yang Ningbing is the president, she has only been in that position for less than half a year.

With less than a month left until graduation, leaving early is quite normal.

Just hours after she left Hongyun and confirmed her joining Great Wall University, a new president was elected from among the seven ministers.

Not only that, Yang Ningbing's former subordinates were also purged from the student union without exception, including Yang Wen, the deputy head of the operations department.

It can be said that from the moment Yang Ningbing joined the Great Wall team, the influence that the Yang family had cultivated in the student council over the years was reduced to zero.

This is a significant loss, but it's not as important as a key position.

The original Red Cloud Team's main member was Rong Wei, the student council's healing department head and the newly appointed president. The other three were vice-ministers. They all had powerful backers. Now that they were about to graduate, they lost their main positions and their hopes. With no more scruples, they began to take revenge.

While Lin Feng and Yun Kai were still at school, they hesitated and did not act immediately.

After Lin Feng and his friends left Hongyun University, the Jianghu Martial Arts Club suffered a comprehensive crackdown.

In less than half a month, in the commercial district alone, one-third of the shops related to the Jianghu Martial Arts Club have been forced to close.

The Jianghu Martial Arts Society was forced to halt its expansion and could only cling to its remaining assets, suffering heavy losses.

The Student Union, as the only student organization recognized by Hongyun University, has been developing for over fifty years.

The student council has seven ministers and fourteen vice ministers. Almost every position is supported by a conglomerate or powerful organization. Their influence is vast and deeply entrenched, and even with Lin Feng and Yun Kai's current popularity and influence, they are still not easily shaken.

Despite being suppressed, the Jianghu Martial Arts Society did not sit idly by. Although Lin Feng and others had left, the Ten Vajras were not weak in terms of strength and background, and began to launch a counterattack.

Conflicts break out every day in the commercial district.

Shops close every day.

Bleeding and injuries are commonplace, and even serious injuries happen frequently. If it weren't for the school's stern warnings these days, someone would probably have died long ago.

Today is the day of the National College Glory League semi-finals. The colleges watched the game together, and it was also a rare day of rest.

To some extent, the performance of the Hongyun team today will also determine the development of the Jianghu Martial Arts Society.

"The main lineup of the Great Wall team is too luxurious."

Yunlin held a beer in his left hand, looked at the screen, and sighed.

This statement resonated with everyone.

Four super geniuses who have refined the demon spirits on the Earth Ranking. Besides their talents, their combat power and professions are also very strong. This lineup is not just luxurious, it's simply abnormal and inhuman.

"Yeah, they're practically leaving no room for other teams to survive. It would be great if they could just beat Demon Star."

Bai Ji also sighed.

His right hand was wrapped in thick gauze. He had been injured in a conflict two days ago, and his right hand was almost severed. If it hadn't been treated and reattached in time, it might have been useless.

Although they were confident in Lin Feng and Yun Kai's abilities, they were indeed somewhat powerless against such a lineup, and their chances of winning were slim.

"Brother Feng is good at creating miracles!"

Gao Hai said confidently.

He witnessed Lin Feng's journey firsthand!

Every time it seemed hopeless, a miracle happened.

"If we can win the championship, those bastards in the student council will definitely not dare to be so arrogant as they are now!" Yang Fan said with anticipation.

In the previous National College Glory League, Hongyun University came in third place, the third-place winner.

Their best historical result was runner-up, and they have never won the championship.

If they defeat the Demon Star, Lin Feng and his group will definitely have even greater popularity and influence.

If we can win the championship, it might be an exaggeration to say that we will have a huge following among the students, but our prestige and influence will definitely reach their peak, and then all difficulties will be easily resolved.

……

Shangjing.

Glory Sports Center.

The feeling of being at the center of the stage, surrounded by cheering fans, is exhilarating. Even after stepping off the stage, many people are still excited and unable to come back to their senses.

Back in his seat, Lin Feng, like the audience, watched the game intently.

The nine elite universities and Liaoyuan University, totaling ten teams, are divided into two groups, A and B, to fight against each other. The top three teams will then be determined by drawing lots to choose which of the three hero academies to challenge.

Team battles test teamwork; no matter how strong an individual is, they cannot determine the outcome of the game.

The ten teams are all relatively evenly matched, making the battles intense and the matches exciting.

Among them, as a long-established military academy, Central South University is clearly stronger in overall strength and coordination.

The Central South Team is also the only team among the ten that possesses a super genius capable of refining the Earth Ranking Demon Spirit.

That super genius was a young man named Chen Bingxi, who refined the 87th ranked Red Blood Tyrannosaurus on the Earth Ranking. It was possessed by a demon spirit, its whole body was covered with red dragon scales, and it had sharp dragon horns on its head.

His already towering two-meter frame grew to two and a half meters, his muscles bulging exaggeratedly as if about to explode. His fighting style was also extremely ferocious. Under his leadership, the Long Sky Team was eliminated in just two minutes.

Changkong University is located in Jiangcheng, which is Lin Feng's hometown. When the Changkong team was eliminated, sighs echoed throughout Jiangcheng.

Fortunately, compared to the Changkong team, they were really looking forward to the Hongyun team.

Although the Hongyun team is not from the same city and belongs to Guanglin Base City, Lin Feng, Yun Kai, and Dong Yunan are all from Jiangcheng, so it is not an exaggeration to call them the Jiangcheng team.

Of course, some people are also looking forward to the Great Wall team, because Ye Qiu is also from Jiangcheng.

Although Chen Bingxi was exceptionally talented and both of them were capable of refining dragon-type demon spirits from the Earth Ranking, there was still a gap between him and Ye Qiu.

What truly caught Lin Feng's attention was a young man wearing a "green hat" (a symbol of being cheated on).

"How come we didn't notice him in the preliminary rounds? Did he leave early? Or was he injured and eliminated too early?"

Looking at the young man in the green hat, Lin Feng was surprised and also a little confused.

This young man is no ordinary person!
He not only attracted Lin Feng's attention, but also the attention of the entire audience.

He seemed to have an aura about him; no one could ignore him.

He was a young man with fluffy curly hair, about 1.78 meters tall. The young man's appearance was not particularly distinctive, but after he was possessed by a demon spirit, he wore a mushroom-shaped hat.

The hat is emerald green and moves up and down rhythmically, as if it has its own life. It even glows green in the sunlight.

Amidst a deafening roar of laughter, the young man instantly became the most eye-catching person in the room.

On the screen, the young man's embarrassed and stiff expression was clearly visible.

The young man was certainly not someone who had just refined a demon spirit, nor was it his first time undergoing a demon transformation. He naturally knew what kind of laughter his appearance would elicit. However, the scene before him, with the laughter of over 300,000 people, left him momentarily stunned. It took him quite a while to come to his senses.

To ease the awkwardness, he forced a smile, but amidst the laughter of the crowd, the smile clearly carried a bitter taste. "It's alright, Tianming, don't worry about it, just focus on the game."

Sensing the young man's embarrassment, his teammates went over and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.

For a spirit master, it's normal for a spirit to possess a body and cause it to transform into a spirit. Having a mushroom on one's head is nothing unusual, after all, it's a plant-type spirit.

Some people transform into demons, their skin resembling tree bark, and their bodies sprouting flowers and grasses—this is quite common.

Unfortunately, the mushroom is green, although there are some brown lines on the surface, the overall color is still green.

And it grows right on the head, completely covering it, so from a distance it looks like a hat.

In China, the green hat has a special meaning, so whenever Chen Tianming is possessed by a demon, it is accompanied by bursts of laughter.

Therefore, Chen Tianming would not easily transform into a demon unless absolutely necessary.

The laughter wasn't malicious; it was just genuinely funny. But it made Chen Tianming feel incredibly embarrassed and ashamed.

"I'm fine, I'm used to it by now."

Seeing the worried looks on his teammates' faces, Chen Tianming shook his head, a helpless bitter smile on his lips.

While others transform into demons, they become incredibly handsome and imposing, eliciting screams from the crowd. But he, on the other hand, ends up with a "green hat," accompanied by uproarious laughter.

They're both demonic transformations, so why is there such a huge difference?

If it were abroad, it wouldn't matter, since being cuckolded doesn't have any special meaning in other countries.

But he happens to be in China!
If given another chance, he would definitely not choose this demon spirit.

That was incredibly embarrassing!

Not only Chen Tianming himself, but even his teammates felt a little embarrassed.

While I offered words of comfort, I was indeed embarrassed.

"It's really embarrassing. Of all places to grow, this mushroom has to grow on my head, and it's green at that!"

From the audience, Dong Yunan said with a smile.

As a fellow therapist, she observed a minute's silence in remembrance of him.

Although Chen Tianming is somewhat amusing, he does have some skill; otherwise, he wouldn't be a key player.

The plant-type spirit he refined is called "Life Mushroom," which is said to have the ability to prolong life and is at a level as high as ninth rank.

The spirit's innate skill, like its name, is "Life Mushroom." Its healing effect is weaker than Dong Yunan's Rain Nourishment, but in addition to healing injuries, it can also restore soul power, giving it two abilities.

This is a very powerful healing skill.

A healing-type spirit of the ninth rank is extremely rare; this is already a top-tier healing-type spirit.

Although the Life Mushroom's combat power is not as good as Dong Yunan's Siren, its healing ability surpasses Dong Yunan's by a considerable margin.

However, the scene of this treatment was also quite funny.

When the soul skill is released, a green mushroom will appear on the head of the person receiving the treatment, just like the one on Chen Tianming's head, only smaller.

When all five members of the team have mushrooms emitting a bright green glow appearing above their heads at the same time, the scene is indeed quite delightful.

Upon seeing this, the audience's laughter never stopped.

Whether it was the audience's laughter or their own nervousness, the Qi Yun team, wearing bright green hats, made a very basic mistake.

The Qi Yun team had five main players, four magic users and one healer. Their tactical system was spell bombardment, but a berserker from the Cang Hai team broke into their ranks, causing their defensive system to collapse and the battle to end in less than two minutes.

The game ended, but the audience's laughter continued.

"unlucky!"

The captain of the Qiyun team was named Zhou Xuan. After losing the game, he ripped the green mushroom off his head, threw it hard on the ground, stomped on it a few times, splashing juice everywhere, and then looked around and suddenly cursed.

Although she didn't name names, after finishing her rant, Zhou Xuan glanced at Chen Tianming, making no attempt to hide her disgust and dissatisfaction.

The gazes of his teammates made Chen Tianming's expression change, and he clenched his fists, but he forced himself not to speak.

Zhou Xuan was the one who made the mistake, but the other party is blaming him.

This infuriated him.

"The master of cuckoldry!"

Looking at Chen Tianming, who was barely suppressing his anger, a smile flashed in Lin Feng's eyes.

Five years later, Chen Tianming, who was a hot commodity in the Glory League and ranked among the top ten All-Stars, was now so dejected and even ostracized by his teammates, which was quite ridiculous.

As a healer, Chen Tianming performed only moderately in the previous battle; he didn't stand out, but he didn't drag the team down either.

In Lin Feng's view, Chen Tianming not only had strong medical skills, but also strong control abilities.

Plant-type spirits have a natural advantage when it comes to control-oriented strategies.

Although he was eliminated in the first round today and ridiculed by 300,000 viewers, a few years later, this guy nicknamed "Green Hat God" will have a terrifying endurance with his Soul Skill [Forest Sea] and Healing Spell, leaving many professional players helpless.

At this moment, Chen Tianming had not yet found his advantage, nor had he found a soul skill that would allow him to leverage it.

A good soul skill can potentially change a person's career path.

The Avengers, now consisting of nine members, are all combat-oriented except for Dong Yunan: assassin, battle mage, lightning mage, berserker, and summoner, with explosive attack output. The only missing member is a control-type class.

This future cuckold master is just right.

The first round of the competition ended quickly, and the top five have been determined: Central South University, Montaigne University, Fengxiang University, Canghai University, and Mingzhi University.

The first five matches, including rest and competition, took less than two hours, with an average battle time of no more than ten minutes.

With the assistance of senior therapists, the team members' injuries and physical condition are not a problem.

As night fell, at 8 p.m., the top three had been determined.

The top three teams were no surprise; they were all strong teams from previous years: Central South University, Fengxiang University, and Mingzhi University.

Then, when the host brought a cardboard box onto the stage, the atmosphere became tense.

The three winning teams will draw lots to select their opponents.

"It can't be Great Wall University, it can't be Great Wall University!"

The captains of the three teams looked at each other, seemingly calm, but secretly praying.

The Great Wall team's star-studded lineup was so luxurious it was almost inhuman, it was utterly hopeless, and there was absolutely no hope of winning.

Previously, among the three hero academies, Red Cloud University was the opponent that everyone wanted to choose.

The Demon Star is known as the eternal runner-up.

Hongyun is known as the third oldest for a thousand years, but sometimes he may become the fourth oldest.

Under normal circumstances, these ten teams can only compete for third place, which is the position of the Red Cloud Team.

However, with Lin Feng leading the way, Hongyun University is also quite strong, and they are not confident.

Instead, the perennial runner-up, the Demon Star, became their first choice.

"Fengxiang University vs. Great Wall University!"

The first to draw lots was Zhou Ming, the captain of Fengxiang University. He looked at the numbered ball in his hand with a look of despair, as did his teammates. The battle had not even started, but it was already over.

Upon seeing that Fengxiang University had drawn Great Wall University, the team members from Mingzhi University and Central South University breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if the air had become fresher.

The second team to draw lots was Mingzhi University. Team captain Zhang Xiaofeng muttered to himself as he reached into the number box.

"Mingzhi University vs. Moxing University!"

When the host announced it, Zhang Xiaofeng breathed a long sigh of relief again, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

Compared to Mingzhi University, the team members from Central South University looked very serious.

At this moment, the screen clearly captured the expressions of the team members, eliciting bursts of laughter from the audience.

"Damn it!"

Upon seeing this, Huang Tianze, the captain of the Demon Star team, couldn't help but curse.

He, who is usually very polite, actually used a swear word at this moment.

He and his teammate exchanged a glance, a wry smile playing on their lips.

When did Magic Star University become an easy target?
"This year's competition is really unfriendly to Demon Star! It seems like they can't even hold onto their perennial second place position. Let's aim for second and secure third!"

Huang Tianze thought to himself.
