The players in the first game entered from the east and west passages, and Alvin saw a "familiar" figure──Gavresa.
"Why don't you see this dear friend next to Lan Yu?" Alvin thought to himself.
Xia Ye didn't have time to watch the first game. He had to go for a physical examination to prepare for the game.
The white-haired figure who had been overlooking everyone in the venue just now also turned around and walked straight to the passage behind Alvin.
"It turns out she's going to play soon," Alvin thought to himself. When Princess Onian passed by Alvin, his eyes were flowing. Alvin thought it was because he was trapped in an illusion, but when he looked again, there was no sign of wind or rain. Wu Qing's heart froze when he saw the elusive curve of her mouth.
At this time, Garver and a martial arts player from Portsley College climbed onto the square stone platform in the center of the venue. Gafo still had the dark-colored long sword in his hand, but he looked very leisurely, with both hands resting on the hilt of the sword, a relaxed and carefree expression.
The man from Portsley College was tall and tall, holding a giant mountain-breaking ax and wearing heavy armor. His entire face was hidden in his helmet, and no expression on his face could be seen at all.
What Alvin didn't expect was that many of the cheers were for "Gavresa", and they were all young and beautiful aristocratic women. "It's so classless," he couldn't help but curse inwardly.
A deacon in black drew out his staff, and a magical air bomb twisted and flew to the center of the field. It exploded with a "pop" and the game began.
The man holding the mountain ax reacted very quickly. He took a step forward, picked up the mountain ax with one hand, and swung it around his head. With a sound of "um", the giant ax cut the air sharply. The audience originally thought that he was emboldening himself by swinging the ax, but then they saw that this was not the case. Countless blue light spots gathered around his axe, and the light spots gathered more and more, forming an obvious light spot. , and then the entire mountain-breaking ax was covered in cyan light.
Alvin stared at it and realized that this Pudsley student used some kind of martial arts to quickly absorb the surrounding available substances to the weapon in order to strengthen the weapon. But Gafo Reza, who was opposite him, was unmoved. He looked at him coldly, not caring about his strengthening methods at all. He was still very relaxed and didn't even move his stance.
Seeing his opponent's contempt, the burly student from Parksley College sneered in his heart, "You'll feel better soon." He felt that the power of the weapon in his hand was accumulating, and it was almost reaching the limit of what he could control. He shouted loudly, and with his body together, he swung the giant ax directly towards Gafo's face.
Apparently this warrior holding a giant ax also released a high-level agility technique for himself when strengthening the weapon. With such a burly body, wearing heavy armor, and coupled with this giant axe, how could he be so fast if he didn't have high-level agility?
Looking at the ax that showed his face, Gafo's expression turned cold, and his face showed a cold light. He drew the sword with one hand and "pull it out", and the entire ink flame escaped from his palm and rose into the air.
The contestant holding the giant ax looked at the black sword that had escaped his hand. He felt that it was a big mistake by his opponent and struck it down with great force. With a "dang" sound, the giant ax struck the ink flame flying in the air. A series of questions burst out in his heart. "What's going on? What kind of power is this? Isn't it just a sword hanging in the air? How can it have such power?"
The audience present were also surprised and confused. Such a full-force attack was easily blocked by the boy from Prince Resa's family? Moreover, this powerful and heavy ax fell short of its size when it hit it. It seemed that the ax struck an iron pile. Even if the iron pile received such a blow, it would have opened a hole, but the black sword did not move at all.
While the giant ax player was still competing with the demonic flames, Gafo kicked off the ground with one foot, rose into the air, and strode sideways toward the sky. I saw him picking up the ink flames hanging in the air with one hand, spinning in the air, and turning around gracefully. An arc of ink-colored light originally started from the bottom up, but in an instant it made a gorgeous turn, falling from the sky and piercing straight through. The giant ax player is behind the scenes.
Originally, Gafo had outstanding appearance and a pair of charming blue eyes. It is said that many aristocratic girls fell in love with him at first sight. Now I saw him again with a handsome figure, standing on the ground and reaching the sky, turning around sharply, and the graceful look between his sword turns made countless women secretly exclaim with joy, and the feeling of spring was budding.
"With this fierce figure, this little guy from the Resa family has some abilities." Master Piro couldn't help but admire in a low voice after seeing it, and King Kelman couldn't help but nodded when he heard this.
Because the giant ax player struck with all his strength, all the power was concentrated on the ax blade. Gafo suddenly took away the ink flame. Due to the inertia, he could not hold his body back, and he staggered forward two steps with the ax in hand. At this time, the ink flames falling from the sky by Gafo had already pierced his heart. How could he stand up and fight back?
The black-clothed deacon at the side raised his hand to block a shield behind the giant axe player, and then immediately raised his hand to indicate that Gavresa won this round.
When Gafo saw the referee indicating that he had won, he stopped his sword.
The giant axe player was dejected. He originally thought he could fight with his opponent for a while, but he didn't expect to be subdued with just one move. He felt sad. However, regardless of the opponent's strength, he had no choice but to leave the field angrily.
Seeing Gaffer defeating the enemy with one move, those noble women became even more outrageous. Some of them even ignored their restraint and shouted "Gaffer"'s name loudly.
"It turns out that his strength is so terrifying. It seems that in the last battle in the "Bauhinia Pavilion", he didn't use all his strength at all. If he had used all his strength, Lai Wu and the others would have fallen down long ago," Alvin thought. He secretly thought that he was naturally shocked by the strength of the second brother Lan Yu.
Those high-ranking officials and nobles who were closest to the battlefield saw it most clearly. Many of them were masters of martial arts or magic. Seeing Gafo's amazing strength, they couldn't help but marvel inwardly. They couldn't help but look at Prince Reza. With a sense of closeness.
Prince Reza looked calm, as if he was expecting it, and smiled and nodded in response to the compliments.
Gafo's stunning sword was a good start for the Pillow Sword Club, and the audience had full expectations for the contestants this time.
Alvin was shocked when he saw Gafo's volley of swords, but his mind kept thinking about the scene where the black beer was spilled in the "Fire Music" pub that day, repeating it over and over again, so that the following scenes I couldn't concentrate on watching the game.
During the scene with Xia Ye, Alvin supported his head with one hand and watched roughly, "I didn't expect this kid to have some skills. I didn't see it last time. He has such a flexible figure," Alvin sighed secretly. . I saw that the magician off the field was very annoyed by Xia Ye's figure jumping left and right. After a while, his flaw was exposed, and Xia Ye forced him to get close and killed him directly.
-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------
What pulled Alvin out of his thoughts was the bursts of cheers from the audience. It turned out that Princess Onian had appeared.
I saw that she had changed into a white slim-fitting dress, with her shoulders reaching to her chest, gold-leaf armor with lotus patterns clinging to it, giving off a faint halo in the sunlight. She was holding a long silver staff with an enchanted top on the staff. The material of the gem was unknown, but it was no less impressive than the skylight in the venue. It was extremely dazzling and astonishing. As she walked along, she looked like a banished immortal walking out of the wind and snow, wearing a white dress and gold armor, and a face with frost.
"The princess must win, the princess must win," the audience cheered and shouted, and it was a completely one-sided cheer. Alvin thought that this was too unfair to the player opposite the princess. "Heh, it's okay to be watched by tens of thousands of people. Now it's just like the princess's home battle, just to persuade the opponent to retreat," Alvin thought to himself, looking at the player opposite O'Nian in a funny way, It is estimated that his psychological pressure is not ordinary.
Indeed, as Alvin thought, the contestant opposite the princess looked pale. He had obviously never fought under so many "strict" eyes. His throat was dry, his legs were weak, and his face was pale. He thought to himself, the opponent was of royal blood, and the sword was blind when fighting. If he was injured, how could he leave the scene?
Prime Minister Fowler, who had been sitting at the referee's table, noticed the player's worries and came on stage to pat the player on the shoulder to encourage him. Then he reiterated the purpose of the Zhenjian Club to the entire audience, which probably means that the Zhenjian Club selects talents "only based on ability, not status." The noise in the audience subsided a little.
The player was encouraged by Fowler and cheered up, no longer bothered by the boos from the audience.
With the sound of magic air bombs exploding, the game began.
The player opposite O'Nian skillfully took out two black short knives from his waist and got into a fighting stance. It is not so much a short sword as it is a specially forged crescent-shaped dagger, with a dark glow of blood on the black blade.
"This doesn't seem to be an ordinary martial arts weapon..." Alvin thought with a frown.
Onian is not a person like Alvin who lacks fighting experience. He roughly knows where the other party is coming from just looking at her posture. She holds the staff, raises her wrist and twists it. Her white hair is flying, and there is a burst of light under her feet. The aperture spreads. Alvin clearly watched Onian's action, and then he felt the power of the princess's magic power. This was a high-level ice and snow barrier. It not only slowed down the people who entered it, but also caused the ice and snow to slow down. If a sharp blade falls, there is always a risk of frostbite and cuts.
Such field terrain magic is as easy as picking it up for Onian. Alvin looked at it in surprise, feeling that she should be the same level of monster as Lan Yu, or even stronger.
When the martial arts players saw the spreading ice and snow barrier, they did not hesitate. They flew out and rushed directly into the barrier. Their fast eyes could no longer catch up.
"This is a killer..." Alvin saw this ghostly speed, and then he reacted. He abandoned all substances that hindered him and quickly absorbed all substances that could speed up his body. This approach is what an assassin would do. The most common method of killer martial arts.
Even though the martial arts player's speed was far beyond that of ordinary people, he still slowed down in the flying snow. Alvin saw that there were several cuts on his body that had been cut by sharp ice and snow.
Onian could clearly distinguish the position of the martial arts players in the wind and snow. She threw out the ice snowballs one after another. When hit by these ice magics in the barrier, the bonus damage was no joke. Fortunately, the martial arts players With his excellent reflexes, he dodged again and again. Looking at the ice and snow "fireworks" exploding next to him, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"The way she throws the snowball looks a bit like me," Alvin thought shamelessly.
The martial arts player felt that his speed through the ice and snow barrier was getting slower and slower. He knew that if he continued like this, he would be hit by the snowball sooner or later. His heart skipped a beat, and with a few arrows, he headed directly behind O'Ni'an.
Onian turned her head and glanced sideways, snorted coldly, drew out her staff, twisted her waist, turned around, the light in her golden eyes turned, and heard a sharp scream suddenly echoing throughout the audience, and looked intently, An ice phoenix spurted out from the top of the staff, and ice shards continued to explode around it.
Facing the ice phoenix spreading its wings, the double-dagger killer did not hesitate at all. He still charged forward with all his strength. He had no intention of holding back his body to dodge. He raised the black dagger with his hands crossed and faced the ice phoenix. Hit it.
It seems that this is the moment of decisive battle, Alvin thought, and the audience held their breath to watch the result.
I saw two black and red rays of light cutting open the wings of the ice phoenix, and they were still moving forward. Alvin could clearly see that at the moment of the head-on confrontation, the killer slipped sideways under the ice phoenix's belly, raised his hands above his head, and cut the ice phoenix's wings wantonly with two black daggers. .
The audience couldn't help but take a breath. No one expected that this martial arts player would react so quickly.
Looking at the double dagger killer who was about to hit his face, Onian was very calm. She quickly chanted a magic spell, and the ice phoenix that was cut into three parts instantly rotated and changed its shape at high speed, forming three strands of cold air. The ice hurricane, under the control of the princess, turned and attacked the martial arts athlete's spine, back, and feet.
The martial arts player didn't even look back, he only saw the figure of the princess. As a student majoring in assassination, the lecturer has told me countless times that a killer can control a faster body only if he is focused on nothing. "Fear and pain will only slow you down," the martial arts player thought to himself, his hands already in a close combat posture.
Just as the dagger with a red glow in the black evil aura was already two steps away from the princess, the martial arts player suddenly froze, his face was ferocious, his hands were still waving, but he could not take another step forward. .
It turned out that his feet had been blown by a hurricane of ice. From the soles of the feet to the ankles and then to the calves, they were frozen to the ground, and the condensed ice crystals were still climbing up his upper body. The martial arts athlete tried to twist his body to break free from the ice crystals, but with his feet behind him and his upper body in front, he couldn't maintain his balance at all. He stumbled and staggered.
Looking at the martial arts contestants, the lower body was frozen and unable to move, while the upper body was still flexing its teeth and claws. It was quite funny, and many viewers laughed out loud. After a while, the ice crystals climbed up from the lower body and froze the martial arts player into a statue.
The two sides are actually competing on their own speed. The martial arts player feels that his body is faster, and the princess feels that his magic is faster. In the end, the princess is better.
The butler on the sidelines signaled that the princess won the game, and the audience burst into cheers and applause. Although it was expected, watching this game was thrilling.
Onian chuckled and walked to the "Ice Statue" and tapped it lightly with her staff. The thick ice crystals broke into pieces. The martial arts player was already so cold that he almost lost his soul and was beaten by several deacons. Lifted down.
"Humph, the little guy is still like this. He is too arrogant. There are ten thousand ways to win, but he has to fight for his life." Master Piro snorted, obviously dissatisfied with his disciple.
King Kelman smiled, but he felt that his daughter was full of royal spirit. She faced her opponent head-on and defeated her head-on, which was quite royal.
"This is also a powerful master..." Alvin looked at the white-haired figure in the scene and couldn't help but shake his head and sighed. He originally wanted to see Lan Yu's expression in the stands opposite, but after looking around, he couldn't see her figure. It seemed that she was also preparing for the game.
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------
Originally, Alvin planned to go back and take a nap. After all, he didn't sleep much, but he didn't want to miss Lan Yu's game. After all, he had played against her twice, and Alvin still wanted to see how Lan Yu "solved" his opponent.
Before Lan Yu came on the stage, Alvin hurriedly sat there with his eyes closed for a while. Anyway, as long as he heard the sound of discussion, it was Lan Yu who was about to appear. After all, he was not the only one. Among the tens of thousands of people present, some were interested in Lan Yu's strength.
As he expected, while he was dozing off, he heard bursts of applause and discussion in the field. When he raised his eyelids with difficulty and looked at the center of the field, he saw the bright red figure. Alvin has always felt that Lan Yu has a paranoid pursuit of aesthetics. Even in this kind of competition, she is unwilling to wear any armor, but the signature wool cloak is indispensable. Today's cloak is an aqua color. In fact, this combination of green rim and red lining is difficult to produce on half the people, but Lan Yu is well versed in the high-end gray tones in oil paintings, and with fair skin It's beautiful and easy to control.
Despite her cold expression now, Alvin could actually tell that Lan Yu really enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight. With her arrogant and perverse temperament, it was impossible to think that any woman could be above her at this time. Even the royal princess who is extremely talented and looks as good as her is no exception.
Alvin thought of the princess's game just now, and thought that O'Ni'an was also an extremely proud and confident person, and there was also the girl from the prince's palace who was looked down upon by no one. If these two women fought, it would be really terrible. The earth shook, the sky and the earth changed color, and he couldn't help but shudder when he thought of this.
Lan Yu's opponent this time was Bai Chen from Alvin's academy. Her magic power should be at a high level. He had heard a little bit about the girl from the prince's palace in front of him, and he believed that Lan Yu's strength was just to bully Ai. Irvine and his ilk, the pride of a famous school made him quite disdainful of Lan Marriage, and he despised the audience's behavior of having too high expectations for Lan Marriage. However, the anger in his heart came more from the fact that Lan Yu never looked at him directly from beginning to end.
"Bochen Jisugi, the only son of Duke Jisugi's family, is also somewhat famous among the senior students in Tide Academy." Alvin heard some of the audience discussing on the side, and couldn't help but think to himself, "Why?" The last time I saw the match list, I looked so familiar. It turned out to be from my own courtyard. It is said that this Bai Chen is quite pretentious, so now I can see some of it."
When the black deacon's magic bomb exploded, Lan Yu's first game officially began.
Lan Yu reacted very quickly and came up to attack directly. He waved the short silver staff. Alvin looked at it and thought that this should be the staff used in the offensive and defensive class last time. She recited a spell very fast. Bai Chen frowned and couldn't understand the magical language in her mouth. Alvin knew that this was a spell cast in ancient magical language. Black light of varying lengths began to gather rapidly above her head. This time the magic energy gathered much faster than the last time. In the blink of an eye, a black cloud covering a small area of the field was formed, and the dark magic energy inside kept flowing. of surging. This time, the eye of the storm was many times larger than the eye of the storm I saw last time in the offensive and defensive class.
Alvin couldn't help but swallow when he saw this. He was a little worried about the backlash of the spell under this terrible energy, and he didn't know if she could bear it. Several deacons in black on the sidelines looked at Prime Minister Fowler uneasily. Fowler looked gloomy. He glanced at Prince Ressa in the stands. Seeing the calm and unconcerned look on his face, Fowler looked at the deacons. Indicates the game to continue.
Bai Chen was surprised by Lan Yu's strange magic. He did not take the opportunity to attack with instant magic when Lan Yu was singing, but chose to build his own high-level magic shield more safely first.
Just hearing Lan Yu's clear drink, the terrifying black cloud gathered magical energy towards her like a colander. The moment that energy touched her body, Lan Yu's red hair immediately danced wildly, and the cloak behind her was spilled out. The magic flow outside her body was flying up and down. Alvin saw her clenching her silver teeth, anger and pain intertwined in her green eyes. How could the backlash of that spell be tolerated by ordinary people?
However, Lan Yu just gritted his teeth and endured it. Alvin lamented that this girl's character was like this. She was so cruel to him that others felt sad when they saw her. In the next second, more than a dozen ink-colored lightnings glowing with golden light were shot out in an instant. Looking carefully, the ink-colored lightnings turned out to be ferocious and roaring ink dragons, as if they had just flown out of the trapped dragon shoal, bringing them with them. With overwhelming anger and murderous intent, they directly surrounded Bai Chen.
Dozens of ink dragons stared at Bai Chen in the magic shield, as if they had built a black cage for him. The golden dragon eyes seemed to be able to read his emotions, looking at the frightened man with contempt and arrogance. How a magician fights a trapped beast.
Bai Chen couldn't stop sweat dripping from his forehead. He had never seen this kind of magic before. Of course, the audience present was also stunned. Who would have thought that the daughter of Prince Reza could summon more than a dozen ink dragons in one breath?
"This girl is also a ruthless character. She can control such high-level spells and magic at such a young age. It's not easy." Master Piro frowned and said, "Your Majesty, the girl from the Resa family is no better than the princess. Inferior."
"The little guys in the Resa family are very successful..." Kelman said with a calm expression, but his heart was full of sadness. He was full of disappointment for the royal descendants behind him, except for the proud daughter of heaven, Princess Onian. , he actually had no other worthy heirs.
Lan Yu looked at Bai Chen who was surrounded by more than a dozen ink dragons with a smile, as if she were looking at a little pet she was teasing.
Even though Bai Chen was very scared, his innate sense of superiority and pride made him unable to bear this humiliation. Just when he thought of chanting a high-level spell at the ink dragon, he was instantly surrounded by more than a dozen dragon roars. His heart was shattered by the shock, and he was trembling so much that he could hardly hold the staff.
"Giggles, aren't you going to surrender?" Lan Yu said with a crisp smile.
Bai Chen's limbs were a little weak at this time, and he was still a little bit arrogant. He looked at Lan Yu like he was looking at a monster. Lan Yu's words just now were like a thorn piercing into his shattered self-esteem, making him even more embarrassed.
When Lan Yu saw that the other party had not yet resisted, she suddenly lost interest, the smile on her face disappeared, and her expression turned cold in an instant. With a wave of her silver staff, she turned around gracefully and walked slowly towards the contestants' aisle without looking back. The dozens of ink dragons roared straight towards Bai Chen's magic shield as if they had fulfilled their wish.
Several black-clothed deacons present quickly blessed Bai Chen with several magic shields, leaving only one who raised his hand to indicate that Lan Yu had won.
Lan Yu, who was walking back with a cold expression, glanced at the contestants' stand to the east, and deftly put the staff back into her sleeves. The dozen or so ink dragons tore through several magic spells the moment she turned around. Shield, if it weren't for Lan Yu's action of retracting the staff, Bai Chen would have been swallowed up by the spell energy.
He could feel it even from such a distance, and it was this kind of smile that was not a smile. Alvin was most afraid of Lan Yu showing this look. He knew that she was angry, but he really couldn't figure out what she was angry about. Looking at Bai Chen, whose limbs were limp and being carried off the field, a chill ran down his back.
Now everyone in Saluhi knew the strength of the brother and sister who came back with Prince Resa this time. Looking at the bright red figure fading away in the contestants' tunnel, many spectators swallowed their saliva before returning. After thinking about it, I had even forgotten the chattering discussion. There are still many people recalling the terrible magical black dragon.
Some of the high-ranking officials and nobles on the lowest floor were shocked and did not dare to look at Prince Resa anymore. Some looked at the prince and couldn't help but look a little fanatical.
Prince Reza was still the same as before, smiling kindly and calmly.
Archbishop Herod of the Orthodox Church watched everything that happened on and off the court with a cold eye, a strange smile appeared on his lips, and the next second he returned to his calm look.
