After the Star Lord finished speaking, another seven or eight people left the line.
Soon after.
Only seventeen of the seventy or eighty people left.
Of these 17 people, nine were from the five great Divine Dwelling Academies. Although there were many geniuses who had passed through the qualifiers, most of the geniuses of the entire galaxy were concentrated in the five great Divine Dwelling Academies.
That being said, the five academies belonged to five forces. Only one or two people from each academy remained.
Greios and Su Ping were the only ones from the Amir Academy.
Tian Qi, who was slightly weaker than Greios in the academy, knew that he had no hope of competing for the championship after seeing that both Greios and Tian Qi had stayed, so he simply retreated.
On the other side, the Goddess of Light, the Demonic Dragon, and the Frenzied Blade also left. They were the second-in-command of their respective academies. At that moment, they had no chance of winning the championship unless they could find a loophole in the rules. After all, only the champion would be selected!
Obviously, it was almost impossible to find a loophole in the rules in a competition that was watched by billions of people.
"Very well, since you are all confident that you can kill this Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon, then start one by one. Let me say this first. Once the battle begins, you cannot back out. You will either die in battle or kill this beast. There is no other choice!"
The Master of Stars said coldly, "As for the others, you still have the chance to back out before the challenge begins. This is also a mercy to you greenhouse flowers!"
Everyone was silent. Some of them had a cold look in their eyes. They were not satisfied with the final evaluation.
"Next, who will go first?"
The Master of Stars said coldly, not caring about everyone's attitude.
Everyone was silent again. Some people looked left and right, waiting for others to make the first move. Since there were so many people left, the battle in front of them was obviously just a test. There would be other tests or competitions later.
After a period of silence, no one said anything.
No one was willing to make the first move. They wanted to let others test the battle strength of this Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon.
Although some people were confident that they could kill it, they also wanted to preserve their battle strength. After all, the competition rules had been changed so urgently. After the battle, there would most likely be no chance to rest. There were still other battles, so it was better to preserve as much strength as possible.
"Since no one dares, then let's draw lots!"
The Master of Stars snorted coldly. He saw through everyone's thoughts, but he didn't look down on them. On the contrary, he quite approved of this behavior. Those who stood out to show off at this time, even if they had amazing talent, were very likely to fall in the future.
Soon, someone came and recorded everyone's identity for a random draw.
The first person to be drawn came out. It was the Empress of the Blue Sea.
Seeing that it was herself, the Empress of the Blue Sea was also stunned. She looked left and right and found that everyone else was looking at her. Their faces showed obvious expressions of relief, and some even showed faint smiles of schadenfreude.
The Empress of the Blue Sea was silent for a moment, then accepted this fact. She snorted slightly and was the first to step out.
"Be careful."
Beside her, the Holy King said in a low voice.
Hearing his words, the Empress of the Blue Sea turned to look at him. Apart from the survival competition, they were all competitors. She obviously didn't expect him to cheer for her at this moment.
Nodding slightly, the Empress of the Blue Sea didn't say anything.
"It's not too late to back out now," the Star Lord said coldly.
The Empress of the Blue Sea said indifferently, "I can do it!"
"Okay."
The boundary of the continent that had banished the Evil Wing Skeletal Demon Dragon opened, and the Empress of the Blue Sea immediately flew in.
…
As soon as the Evil Wing Skeletal Demon Dragon was banished, it happily circled around the continent, letting out bursts of dragon roars, appearing very excited. But soon, its attention was attracted by an intruder's aura. Its cold and cruel eyes slightly moved, locking onto a slender figure.
In the eyes of the Evil Wing Skeletal Demon Dragon, that was an ugly bug.
And the one that imprisoned the Evil Wing Skeletal Demon Dragon was of the same species!
Clearly, this bug wasn't as strong as the ones that imprisoned the Evil Wing Skeletal Demon Dragon. The Evil Wing Skeletal Demon Dragon could vent its anger!
The Empress of the Blue Sea Queen felt a killing intent locked onto her as soon as she entered the continent. Her heart skipped a beat. The Empress of the Blue Sea Queen summoned her battle pets at once, all as large as mountains. Some of the battle pets landed on the ground with vines waving around them, forming a thorny forest around them.
Merge!
The Empress of the Blue Sea Queen let out a cry from her throat. A dark blue phoenix flew out. The phoenix had two heads and the crown of the phoenix was shaking off crystal clear ice and snow. Even the temperature around the phoenix was dropping and snowflakes were drifting down.
As they merged, the Empress of the Blue Sea Queen grew phoenix feathers on her forehead. Her body became more slender and her curvaceous figure became even more alluring.
Roar!!
A dragon's roar suddenly came. The Evil Wing Howling Dragon that was hovering in the distance was approaching at high speed. The dragon's roar was so intimidating that the Empress of the Blue Sea Queen turned pale. She couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine. Out of instinct, her body shrank and her momentum slowed down.
Right at that moment, a gust of chilling white dragon flames covered the area like a cannonball. It approached at a frightening speed.
The Empress of the Blue Sea Queen quickly took action. A beast that looked like a Stone Ape dashed out from behind her. The Stone Ape raised its hands and countless rocks rose up from the ground, piling up into a wall. Strange fluctuations appeared on the wall. That was the power of rules.
With a boom, the ripples of rules on the wall collided with the dragon flames. However, they melted like snow. Although the rocks had been strengthened by the elements, they were still ordinary materials. Without the power of rules, they disintegrated instantly and were burned into charcoal. The pillar of flames was like a wild fist, breaking through the rock wall and smashing towards the Stone Ape.
A dragon beast rushed out from the side and spat out a dragon's breath to collide. However, the difference between the two dragon flames was like the bright moon and the starfire. It was quickly pushed back and was about to be poured into the dragon's mouth.
The Empress of the Blue Sea Queen's expression changed. She didn't expect the Evil Wing Skeletal Dragon to be so ferocious. Was this the overlord of the same rank that could sweep through all the top demonic beasts in the starry sky?
She gritted her teeth. Cold phoenix flames rose all over her body as she unleashed a secret technique. An extremely profound freezing rule was unleashed to freeze the dragon flames.
The surrounding space solidified as if it were locked in ice. The dragon flames also showed signs of extinguishing. The power of rules attached to it was about to be disintegrated by the Blue Sea Empress' freezing rule!
…
"This woman is so strong!"
The sixteen people watching the battle were all amazed. Although the Blue Sea Empress also revealed her freezing rule in the previous battle, it was far from this terrifying. Her performance was only at the early stage of the Star Sky Realm. But at this moment, her freezing rule was definitely at the advanced stage of the Star Sky Realm. She was about to achieve enlightenment!
Once she achieved enlightenment, she would be able to step into the overlord level of the Star Lord Realm!
"I didn't expect that the Holy King of the Twin Stars of the Hugh Mia Academy was not the strongest. It was this woman." The Dragon Emperor narrowed his eyes with a hint of fear.
On the other hand, Linghu Jian's eyes also flickered. A white sword shadow flashed across his eyes.
…
Inside the continent, the Blue Sea Empress, who had exerted all her power of laws, directly activated her battle form and shattered the frozen dragon flames. She was about to lead her battle pets to fight back when a crack suddenly appeared in the void. A swarm of skeleton monsters stepped out of the crack. All of those monsters were accompanied by a special law of destruction.
As these monsters swept over, dragon roars rang out again. The Evil Wing Nightmare Dragon swooped down, bringing with it a bloody wind.
"There are no dead creatures here. Where did she summon so many skeletons?!"
The Blue Sea Empress was surprised. Then she realized that the skeletons had most likely been summoned from a certain world of the undead.
That was definitely a top-level skill of the undead class.
Of course, she wasn't unprepared. The battle pets that she had summoned had already set up a battle formation. The battle pets of the plant family took root in the ground and shot out countless venomous thorns from the forest around them. While the thorns were somewhat restrained by the summoned undead creatures, the thorns were still lethal.
Besides, a gust of wind was blowing in the void, mixed with thunder and fire. That was the skill that another battle pet had prepared.
A large number of skeletons were smashed into pieces by those skills. While those skeletons were also surrounded by the power of laws, they were still no match for the powerful skills of those battle pets.
Two dragons dashed forward and fought against the Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon, but they were soon injured. The two dragons had excellent aptitudes and were both at the A + rank. Although they were at the initial stage of the Star Rank, which was the upper limit of the pets that the Queen of the Blue Sea Queen could sign contracts with, their combat strength could be enhanced to a high enough level that they could fight against common beasts at the later stage of the Star Rank.
However, the Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon was able to injure them in a two-on-one battle.
Roar!
The Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon seemed to be enraged when the two dragons were beaten back. It roared all of a sudden and a red glow spread out from its body, radiating like a domain.
Inside that domain, the eye sockets of the skeletons suddenly glowed red. The aura of laws all over them surged. They dashed out from those skills and surrounded the Queen of the Blue Sea Queen.
"What?!"
The Queen of the Blue Sea Queen was astonished. How could those undead creatures be so powerful?
Soon, her battle pets were injured and forced to retreat under the pressure of the skeletons. The Queen of the Blue Sea Queen gritted her teeth. She could no longer hide her strength and unleashed her physical strength. She had a top-level physical strength of the ice family. Together with the laws that she had learned, she could push the laws of ice to the extreme, almost to the level of the rules!
That was her real trump card.
Crack, crack, crack!
A large number of skeletons were frozen and then smashed into pieces by the battle pets' skills.
The Queen of the Blue Sea Queen suddenly took out a bone whip, which seemed to have been extracted from the back of a certain monster. There were bone spurs on the whip, which were surrounded by the power of laws that matched her body well. She charged at the Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon.
The Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon roared and waved its claws, fighting against the Queen of the Blue Sea Queen.
There were two types of rules on him, both of which were at an extremely profound level. Surprisingly, he wasn't frozen by the Jade Sea Empress. Instead, they were evenly matched.
…
Countless people watching the livestream held their breath as they watched the fierce battle.
Such a top-level battle had never been seen in the previous auditions, not even in the survival battles.
Although there were a few top contestants who met each other, the battles between them were very simple. Even so, it was still an eye-opener for countless people. At this moment, the power that the Empress of the Blue Sea had displayed was the peak of her combat power since the start of the selection battle!
It was hard to imagine that the woman fighting the Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon was a Fate State warrior!
The Star State warriors who were watching the battle were all sweating and ashamed.
Some of the advanced Star State warriors were even blushing. They realized that they would've been defeated and had to flee if they were the ones fighting the woman!
…
While everyone was watching the battle, the situation in the continent was gradually changing. The Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon became more and more ferocious. Its dragon aura was spurting out, and the dragon blood it spat out was highly corrosive. Even the best armor the Queen of the Blue Sea Queen was wearing had lost its color and was showing signs of being penetrated.
In addition, the Evil Wing Skeleton Demon Dragon's body gradually changed. The dragon scales all over its body turned from red to pitch-black. Finally, within the pitch-black dragon scales, wisps of red scales appeared. These red scales formed a complex and strange pattern on its body, causing its power to increase explosively. Combined with the power of laws and its domineering Dragon Power, it was actually able to suppress the Jade Sea Empress!
…
"Not good!"
Outside the arena, a few people's expressions changed slightly, and their eyes became serious.
The Holy King also changed his expression and clenched his fists.
Su Ping had been frowning. He couldn't help but shake his head, as he had reached his limit. The Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon was indeed wild. Such wild Star State beasts were as cunning as human beings, and had been hiding their true strength.
That woman was probably …
Pu!
The Jade Sea Empress spat out a mouthful of blood, her face as white as paper. The anger in her eyes turned to shock and anger, and now there was even a faint trace of fear. But she knew that there was no way out now. Her body buzzed and her battle body erupted with full power. She burned her own blood essence and charged towards the Evil Winged Skeleton Demon Dragon once more.
After fighting for a few minutes, the Jade Sea Empress was exhausted again, and the Evil Winged Skeleton Demon Dragon was also injured in many places. Its dragon wings were frozen, and there were several large holes in them. However, the moment they clashed, the Evil Winged Skeleton Demon Dragon's claws caught the Jade Sea Empress.
The dragon spewed out a cold aura, but it was burnt up the moment it froze the void. Then, the flames passed by.
There was nothing left.
Looking at the dragon claw again, there was no sign of the Jade Sea Empress.
Outside of the continent.
All the contestants changed their expressions.
In every corner of the galaxy, on countless planets, countless people watching the battle also instantly widened their eyes.
Dead?
This talented and unparalleled woman was actually dead?!
Not even her body was left!
"That's impossible!"
In the Hugh Mia Academy, a teacher suddenly stood up. His face was full of shock, unable to accept this reality.
On a prosperous planet, in a major family, the entire family fell into a dead silence. Then, many people shouted in shock.
The Queen of the Blue Sea Queen had been defeated and killed!
On the continent, her injured battle pets were frozen in place, their eyes glazed over. Soon, they were surrounded and killed by the skeletons.
The moment their contracts were broken and their minds were confused, they all died.
Roar!
The Evil Wing Skeleton Dragon bellowed, as if to demonstrate its power. It looked at the audience outside of the continent and then pounced at the dragon corpse on the ground, biting and devouring it.
