At this time, the two people on the court didn't know what was going to happen in the next moment, but they still faced this meaningful confrontation with enthusiasm.
Lucy stood with Yaya, her heart beating fast. It was obviously a similar environment to yesterday, but she still felt inexplicably nervous.
I was so nervous that my hands and feet were trembling, and I even felt a little out of control.
This emotion was also transmitted to Yaya, and everyone became a little anxious.
But Lucy didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
She has always believed that people feel nervous because they are too afraid of failure.
Nervousness born of fear of failure is nothing to be ashamed of.
This kind of tension has no effect other than turning it into firewood and igniting the fire of her fighting spirit.
There's nothing to worry about.
Taking two steps forward, Lucy stood on the dividing line of the venue and bowed to Kesi. The two nodded slightly, greeted each other, turned around at the same time, and led the team to the designated location.
The invigilator popped out a tentacle from his cuff and hit the Minghai sound conch suspended above his head. This magic prop that had witnessed dozens of joint examinations and was full of historical atmosphere shook slightly and made a crisp sound. .
It was like waves crashing on the rocks, and the sound slowly spread outward like water waves on the lake.
Both the audience and the students felt like they had been cleansed physically and mentally.
Until the moment everything came to an abrupt end, the calm surface was torn apart, and Lucy and Cosi began to move at the same time.
Along with their movements, the attacks of the two Shadow Dolls also landed on each other's field.
The priests, who have long been accustomed to defense, successfully blocked Andal's shadow tentacles, but on the other hand, the Knight Academy was in a much more embarrassing situation.
Because they were not familiar with Yaya's offensive methods, they suffered a heavy loss in this first confrontation.
If Kexi hadn't stood in front of the attacked student in time and withstood the concentrated fire attack from other demon pets, Yaya would have really taken the first drop of blood.
Seeing Cosi's quick response, Lucy, who had missed the opportunity, clicked her tongue and showed a solemn expression.
Just as she thought, this guy Kesi is really troublesome...
On weekdays, he looks like a loser who can only rely on his magic pet. But when he really gets serious, he can burst out with energy that is not inferior to any genius knight.
Although this kind of strength is not as powerful as Alpha's, which can determine the outcome of the entire exam by one person, it is still not to be underestimated.
Lucy didn't know if he was deliberately hiding it, or if he was simply accustomed to relying on Andal, but there was no doubt that when fighting against the Knight Academy, Corsi's personal combat power could not be ignored.
Otherwise it will be like the Mage Academy...
Oh, I'm sorry, she forgot that the Mage Academy didn't last long enough to compete with Kesi.
I always feel more pitiful.
After giving Yaya a look, Lucy put her hands behind her back and made the gesture she had agreed upon long ago.
The team that had formed a certain tacit understanding instantly dispersed and moved the magic pets to the front. The team that was originally centered on the priest moved several magic pets to the core position during the formation adjustment.
This special position usually only appears in teams composed of different professions, so that different professions can divide labor according to their own abilities. It has never appeared in a joint examination venue.
Kesi was stunned for a moment before he realized what they were trying to do. Before he could react, he felt a cold breath coming from under his feet.
It felt like pulling your feet out of your snow boots in the middle of winter and stuffing them into ice water. It was so sour and refreshing that outsiders couldn't explain it.
Out of his understanding of magic pets like the Shadow Doll, he subconsciously gathered his fighting spirit and raised his sword to stab the shadow at his feet.
Unfortunately, it's still a step too late.
The plan to divert his attention had succeeded.
The moment Cosi took action, Yaya's claws had already inserted into the shadow cast on the ground, linking to Andal's shadow.
Its spiritual power pulls the power of shadow, and with exquisite manipulation skills, it weaves into a web, wrapping Andal in it.
Being locked, Andal felt his body stiffen, and then seemed to be restrained by something, and gradually began to become a little out of control.
Seeing this, Yaya, who had completed the first step, quickly condensed the black needles, and with Lucy's expectant and worried gaze, he pierced the black needles into his body.
"What?"
This "self-inflicted" scene shocked Andal very much. It looked around as if facing a formidable enemy, as if it was preparing for an attack that would come from nowhere.
But nothing happened.
Andal, who didn't wait for the follow-up, blinked and showed a blank expression.
Failed.
The moment she looked at Yaya, Lucy immediately realized this. She paused slightly, feeling a little unwilling and frustrated in her heart.
As expected, this combo is still too difficult...
Just when she sighed and was about to give her classmates a hint to build a defense network together to resist the knights' counterattack, she found that the expression on Yaya's face suddenly froze.
Um?
Lucy, who seemed to have noticed something, turned around suddenly, and then realized that Andal, who had not appeared strange at first, had froze in place at some point.
Its limbs, which were frozen and unable to move, and its twisted expression showed its abnormal state at the moment.
Yaya was stunned for a moment, then tentatively rolled a shadow ball and threw it over.
Unable to resist, Andal almost watched helplessly as the energy ball hit him from far to near, blasting its stiff body into the distance, and at the same time breaking open the binding force of unknown origin.
Andal, who was forced to catch the ball with his face, felt bitter in his heart.
This is not fair!
It never expected that the first time the favored student would be hit head-on, it would not come from an opponent, but from a teammate.
Andal got up from the ground and moved his limbs, with tears as wide as noodles in his heart.
It is so keen that it can detect the reason for this abnormality almost as soon as a problem occurs in the body.
Andal responded to Kosi's worried inquiry while conveying his grievance to Kana.
This is the disadvantage of the Twin Heart Link. This ability not only means that they can sense each other's status, but also means that at certain times, Kana can interfere with it by controlling her own actions.
Andal was very sure that Kana deliberately chose that time to interfere with it, and she definitely had no good intentions.
At least judging from the results, Yaya's moves and Kana's hands and feet were perfectly connected. Thanks to its secret cooperation, it formed a situation where it was interfered by Yaya's control skills and made mistakes. Illusion.
Obviously that skill didn't succeed...
What an unjust death.
Andal looked up at Yaya and Lucy who were also shocked, feeling even more suffocated.
The dark face of the Shadow Doll swelled slightly, and it looked like an inflated balloon, which had completely expanded.
Lucy, who didn't know what happened, looked at the embarrassed and frustrated Andal, with barely concealed surprise on her face.
real or fake?
Didn't Yaya's move fail?
Lucy glanced at Yaya who was also confused, showing an expression of doubt about life.
It can't be a coincidence, right?
How can anyone fail in a practical exam?
If it weren't for the fact that Andal had been hit and hurt, Lucy would have suspected that the shadow doll was playing tricks on her.
And her acting skills are quite superb, far superior to those of the amateur actresses in the amateur theater in District 13.
But after confirming that it was not acting, the doubts in her heart became deeper and deeper.
Yaya has not mastered this combination skill, but it is just a lack of experience, and it is definitely not to the point where he is not even sure whether his skill has successfully taken effect.
And at that moment, Andal's reaction really didn't look like he was hit by a combo.
Then why...
Puzzled, Lucy even gave the order half a beat too late.
Yaya watched helplessly as the opponent adjusted his condition and couldn't help but make an anxious sound.
"Here!"
This call successfully woke Lucy up from her thoughts.
She still didn't understand what Andal's approach was, but in this situation, there wasn't much time left for her to delve deeper.
Rather than discussing why, Lucy didn't want to let go of this opportunity to pursue victory.
"Keep going!"
Catching another loophole in the opposite team, Lucy put the doubts behind her mind, excitedly waved the light whip in her hand, and gave instructions to the Shadow Doll.
…
In the end, the result of this most special test since the establishment of the joint test, led by the Demon Pet, came after Yaya collapsed from exhaustion due to exhaustion of physical strength and energy.
Almost at the moment when the invigilator gave the signal, the priests who had been using spells to replenish their physical strength and provide assistance all collapsed to the ground.
Humans and demon pets are completely mixed together, which can be called the most disgraceful scene in the history of the joint examination.
Yet no one condemned them.
There was a faint aftertaste on everyone's face.
There is no doubt that this is the longest exam among the four exams so far, even longer than previous finals, but it is also the one that the audience watched most attentively.
The two Shadow Dolls contribute completely different skill sets.
The wonderful performance makes the audience's eyes unconsciously attracted to them and gradually become involved.
Although Lucy and Kexi directly recited the name of the skill and let the magic pet attack when they got up, which made their toes feel inexplicable discomfort, the surging enthusiasm was still through the confrontation between the two magic pets. Passed out.
It opened a new door to the audience present.
