Chapter 723: Chapter 361: Domineering the World_2
The first day of the final round for all the members of the Demon Hunter Team 19115897 has ended. Besides Yue Li’s loss, everyone else achieved victory, in what could be considered a satisfactory start.
Becoming one of the top eight out of thirty-six initially is already quite difficult. Among the team, Ling Menglu undoubtedly has the best odds. However, at present, Long Dangdang, Long Kongkong, and Wang Changxin also all have a chance. The strengths of Tao Linlin and Yue Li are somewhat inferior, but they strive for good rankings.
Today’s most striking competitor on the battlefield had to be Long Dangdang. The five-headed golden dragon was indeed terribly shocking. He represented the Magic Temple in the battles and pretty much relied on his two mount companions to defeat his opponent from the Summoners Temple. How formidable is this? How strong is his own power?
Those among the younger generation who didn’t know much about Long Dangdang before, now understood clearly. The Dragon Mage, the outstanding prodigy hidden by the Magic Temple, within a moment, the fame of Long Dangdang even rivaled that of Zisang Liuying and Ling Menglu, who are well-known top geniuses.
Upon returning to their residences, everyone quickly began cultivating after eating some food. Round-robin competitions are a lengthy process that doesn’t tolerate any errors. Especially, the power of endurance for continuous fighting is crucial. Being injured in the competition is not scary as there is the strong healing power of the Priests Temple. As long as they are still breathing, they can be healed. But the problem is, once their energy is damaged, it becomes very difficult to continue winning in the subsequent competitions. And if they want to strive for the top two of the group, they cannot afford to lose a single match. Being able to afford to lose water in the group matches like Zisang Liuying is quite rare. Only those with absolutely strong confidence in themselves will dare to do so.
Long Dangdang had no objection to her doing so ever since he knew that Zisang Liuying possesses the Chaos Dragon. This is actual power, real strength. Relying on the assistance of the Chaos Dragon, Long Dangdang wasn’t even certain he could defeat her when he used all his strength. Summing up their abilities, Long Dangdang was indeed likely to rank above his cousin.
Although Zisang Liuying conceded in today’s competition, she was very serious when it came to watching others compete. She studied every match carefully until all of the matches ended and then returned to her accommodations.
"Zisang, that five-headed golden dragon of Long Dangdang’s is really intimidating!" voiced Cai Caijuan with some worry.
Just like the Demon Hunter Team 19115897, their team also gathered together after the end of the competition. Of course, only the four of them were core members. Knights and priests didn’t even make it into the top thirty-six and were eliminated early in the qualifying round. As for Zisang Liuying, those two teammates were never acknowledged by her.
Zisang Liuying nodded slightly and said, "It is very strong. His five-headed golden dragon seems to have the bloodline of the Dragon Emperor, according to Boundless." Her Chaos Dragon was named Boundless.
Tang Leiguang said, "He has trained as both a knight and a mage. When you fought him in the internal competition at the Magic Temple, he didn’t use any of the knight’s skills. He must be planning to astonish everyone in the final round. Be careful. However, we are also quite lucky as none of us are in the same group as him."
Yes, they were in four different groups. Tang Leiguang was in the blue group, Zisang Liuying and Cai Caijuan were in the death group, the red group, Chu Yu was in the yellow group, in the same group as Wang Changxin and Yue Li.
Cai Caijuan said, "Long Kongkong is also hard to handle. He is wearing Adamantine Cathedra battle armor, isn’t he? And It seems quite uncommon. He demonstrated the power of the realm and not just one, when did he become so powerful? When we were in school, he wasn’t even that conspicuous. Moreover, that Shi Zeyu in the same group is the number one seed from the Knights Temple and is also an Adamantine Cathedra knight. Zisang, you shouldn’t have let me do it. You should at least ensure that you qualify before making a move."
Zisang Liuying shook her head and said, "It will not affect anything. However, you will have to defeat at least one of those two to have a chance to qualify. You also have to work hard."
Cai Caijuan nodded and said, "I understand, I will do my best. Old Tang, you and Menglu are in a group, you must not go easy on her, okay?"
Tang Leiguang laughed bitterly, "You also saw her match today. How can I go easy? It’s already difficult for me to win against her, even if I give it my all!"
Zisang Liuying said, "Just make sure you can qualify. When you face Menglu, don’t push yourself too hard. She is quite strong." After saying this, she paused for a moment before continuing, "You are not seeing me always seem to win against her, but in reality, many times she has been lenient with me. Outside that time when she used the Forbidden Spell, I have never seen how strong she really is. Even with Boundless by my side, I cannot assure you that I can definitely beat her. Even at this moment, I am already at a disadvantage."
The other three all fell silent. Without a doubt, Zisang Liuying and Ling Menglu had been friends since childhood, but they were also competitors, and they understood each other very well. The reason Zisang Liuying said she was at a disadvantage was that when Long Dangdang unleashed his five-headed golden dragon, she had summoned the Boundless Chaos Dragon to ensure her victory in the internal competition of the Magic Temple, provoking Long Dangdang to back off. However, this exposed her trump card. As for Ling Menglu’s trump card, she did not know, but she was certain that Ling Menglu had one—that was even harder to deal with than Long Dangdang’s.
Chu Yu stated, "Wang Changxin’s attack today was strange. Her armor was also strange. I felt that the armor she wore was not meant to enhance her strength, but instead designed to stabilize and protect her body from a powerful force. It must be an incredibly powerful spirit furnace."
He had kept his eyes closed all along. The Six Paths Reincarnation Method he practiced always randomly stripped away one of his senses until its completion. At this moment, his vision was absent. However, this loss had significantly enhanced his perception, far beyond that of ordinary people.
Cai Caijuan pursed her red lips and said, "Not one of them is normal. We’ve been working so hard for these years, and yet have not been able to outdo them. On the contrary, they seem to be getting stronger. We’ll get to see their true colors in this comprehensive competition."
Zisang Liuying calmly said, "Let’s all work hard, aiming to have us all make it to the top four. Tang, give it your all tomorrow. Try to expose her trump card, at least."
Out of the top thirty-six, five members of Demon Hunter Team 19115897 advanced, compared to their four. In reality, they were already short one person. But Zisang Liuying still retained absolute confidence in herself and her teammates.
In the blink of an eye, the second day of the Great Impartation Contest’s round-robin matches had begun.
According to the rules, today’s matches consisted of pairings between groups of two against three, three against four, with the ninth pitted against the first. Yesterday was the ninth’s unassigned day, and today was the eighth. The same pattern would continue in the subsequent matches.
Upon discovering this arrangement, Long Kongkong was the happiest, because he was only going to face Zisang Liuying in the last round of the round-robin matches. Today, Zisang Liuying’s opponent was the same warrior Long Kongkong faced yesterday.
The matches between the second and third commenced first, and the matches between the first and ninth were held last.
Therefore, the first group today included Ling Menglu. Her opponent was none other than Tang Leiguang. Undoubtedly, this match was one of the most focused events in the blue group.
Tang Leiguang was the most outstanding genius among the younger generation in the Warriors Temple, and no preamble was needed for Ling Menglu, a once-in-a-thousand-years prodigy from the Priests Temple.
None of the other contestants remained in the waiting area. They all gathered around the field, ready to watch the day’s most anticipated match.
Tang Leiguang and Ling Menglu each stepped into the arena. Seeing Ling Menglu in her white and gold embroidered priest’s robe, Tang Leiguang was slightly mesmerized.
Ling Menglu gave him a faint smile and performed a priest’s salutation.
"Five, four, three, two, one, let the game begin."
