The next day, the annual Sky Battle began. Originally, after Princess Royal Jía inherited the Dark Moon, the significance of this battle had become a lot less significant. It gradually became a personal bet between the little princess Alice and the financial officer, Joseph. However, the arena was full of people today. It was the result of Joseph's little trick. He wanted to dampen the Dark Moon's morale in public.
Aldas, who hadn't appeared in public for a long time, appeared on the VIP seat of Alice as a member of Chen Rui's group of relatives. It made everyone discuss for a while. Most of them were praising the heroic deeds of poisoning the capital's genius with gas in the last Master Challenge. Although it had been a while, the dark elf master still felt his face was burning.
This time, the Red Spirit Estate specially sent someone to show their importance. The representative on Princess Royal's side was Old Gauss. As a lord, Jía naturally had her own status and dignity. Since the Red Spirit Lord, Josh, didn't come in person, she didn't need to be there. This kind of indifferent attitude also more or less showed that Jía wasn't optimistic about the outcome of this battle.
In fact, almost no one was optimistic about the human apprentice. Although the Sky Battle wasn't about personal strength, but the ability to tame beasts, the human's strength was too weak. It was still a problem whether he could fly, let alone fight. The reason why the human apprentice could win last time was because of Master Aldas. Now, there was no chance of winning if he faced it alone.
While people were sure that the human apprentice would lose, they were also wondering why Royal Highness Jía or Royal Highness Alice would allow such a weak guy to represent the Dark Moon to participate in the battle? Or perhaps, the two princesses had already made arrangements?
"Not only can everyone who comes to watch the battle be free, but they can also get a reward of 1 purple crystal coin? Joseph is really willing to spend his capital. "Chen Rui said enviously," It would be great if I could get all his money. "
For him, money was aura, money was experience, and money was power.
The last sentence obviously resonated strongly with Alice. She nodded desperately. The eyes of the two money-grubbers, who had already discussed the good things, showed a strong fighting spirit at the same time.
Joseph looked satisfied when he saw the crowded arena. Demons had always advocated strength. Now that there was a competition to watch and there was a chance to take advantage of it, they naturally flocked to it. Today's result would definitely satisfy the Royal Highness Regent who was far away in the capital.
After the welcome speech and opening speech, Alice walked to the center of the arena and spoke with the help of the magic amplification.
"Today is the friendly match between the Red Spirit Estate and the Dark Moon Estate."
Alice said a polite sentence, then she put her hands on her waist and pointed at Joseph at the VIP seat with her raised finger. She said loudly in Alice's language, "Today, Financial Officer Joseph represents his dad's Red Spirit Estate, and the new member of the Dark Moon City, Master Aldas's apprentice, Chen Rui, will represent the Dark Moon! We will defeat them completely! " The match is still based on the previous best-of-three system, but the selection of players has to be slightly changed. In the first match, we will send out one player first, and you can freely arrange your players; in the second match, you will send out first. In the third match, both sides will send out players at the same time. The guys from the Red Spirit Estate, do you dare to accept the challenge? "
The home audience was in high spirits and echoed in unison, "Do you dare?"
Player? Joseph looked thoughtful. At this time, Alan came over and asked, "What now? I don't want to fight against Athena. Are you sure that I will fight against that Chen Rui? I want to kill him personally! "
"Don't worry, everything is under my control. That human is dead!" Joseph's eyes flashed with disdain and replied, "If I'm right, they definitely want to play tricks on the players. Win two matches first, then the human doesn't have to fight in the end. So, we have to ensure that we win at least one of the first two matches. You will stay until the end to deal with that human! "
"You still have an idea!" Alan nodded happily, but his eyes were still staring at Chen Rui fiercely.
Joseph stood up in the tide-like provocation and said, "Okay, let's follow Princess Alice's proposal. Best-Of-Three system. I only have one condition. Each player can only fight in one match. No repetitions. "
Joseph's proposal was to prevent the opponent from letting the strongest Athena play the entire match alone. Alice agreed and shouted excitedly, "Then, I announce that the Sky Battle officially begins! First, let's welcome the first contestant of the Dark Moon Estate, the daughter of the empire's first general, George Wales, Athena. Wales! "
Athena was a celebrity in the Dark Moon City. She was also the main force that won the previous two competitions. The audience was in high spirits and shouted her name loudly.
"Be careful." Although Athena hadn't spoken to him after yesterday's embarrassment, Chen Rui still couldn't help but say that at this time.
Athena's figure paused slightly. She didn't make any response and walked straight down the field. Athena's beast-taming skill and strength were the strongest on Alice's side. Joseph expected her to fight in the first match.
Joseph instructed a skinny lich on the side. The lich nodded and walked down the field.
"The first contestant of the Red Spirit Estate is Leo!"
The central field of the arena was very large. The last Master Challenge only used a small area in it. Now, the field was completely cleared. It was enough for the flying demonic beasts to take off.
Both parties used griffin beasts. After they flew to the height shown by the magic ruler, the battle began. Although it was 100 meters in the sky, with Chen Rui's current eyesight, he could still see it clearly. The same was true for many Demons with extraordinary eyesight.
What Athena showed in front of Chen Rui yesterday was only the basic skills of beast-taming in the air. Due to the conditions and time constraints, it was only introduced in theory. Now that Chen Rui saw the real battle, he finally understood the danger. It was a thrilling feeling.
Without any auxiliary equipment, both parties controlled the griffin beasts and began to turn, collide, and bite fiercely in the air. If they were careless, they would fall.
Ordinary lich could generally be proficient in single-element magic. A few talented ones had the special ability to control demonic beasts. Leo was obviously such a lich with the beast-taming power. However, Athena was even better. The griffin was just like a part of her body. She could launch a fierce attack on the lich's mount from all angles at will. Even when she was circling and passing by, she could still launch an incredible attack.
This superb beast-taming skill made the audience on the ground excited, and the cheers came one after another.
Chen Rui then knew that Athena could win for two years in a row not only because of her father's reputation, but mainly because of her own strength. If it was just based on beast-taming skills without looking at her own strength, even Joseph might not be as good as her.
Just when Athena had the upper hand, the griffin she rode suddenly changed. The flying demonic beast that had been brave actually became timid. No matter how Athena yelled, it didn't dare to attack again. After persisting for a while, it actually turned around and ran. On the contrary, Leo's mount seemed to be injected with a stimulant. It became extremely fierce and chased closely behind.
Leo's mount caught up and crazily pecked and killed Athena's griffin. Athena's griffin could only scream and flee. It even lost the courage to fight back. The cheers in the arena suddenly became silent. No one expected that Athena, who was sure to win, would suddenly show such signs of defeat.
On the VIP seat, Old Gauss ignored the excited look of the Red Spirit Estate's messenger. His eyelids drooped lower, but a trace of cold light flashed through the gap.
Seeing that Athena's mount was about to collapse and couldn't support it anymore, Athena suddenly yelled and suddenly activated the transformation of the Demon form. Her red pupils flashed, and her whole body burned with a flame-like light. The flame fell on the griffin, but it didn't burn. Instead, it wrapped the griffin. Leo's griffin at the back was very afraid of the flame, and it didn't dare to approach for a while.
Joseph below looked at Leo and the griffin's fear of the flame, and his pupils shrank slightly: This is the suppression of rank! Could it be that Athena …
When Athena's flame was withdrawn, the griffin instantly regained its courage. It turned around and pounced on Leo. Leo's mount suddenly lost its fighting spirit, and the situation was suddenly reversed. The audience immediately regained their passion, and people shouted loudly.
Athena seemed to be burning with anger. She commanded the griffin to start a violent counterattack. Leo's griffin screamed again and again. It couldn't support anymore and fell down. Leo finally couldn't keep his balance when he was about to reach the ground. He fell to the ground from a height of four or five meters. His weak body couldn't bear it, and his two leg bones were suddenly broken. Fortunately, he was still alive.
The victorious griffin hovered in the air, and Athena's angry voice came, "Despicable guy, you actually used magic to cheat! If I didn't use the Demon's Fire to dispel the Art of Fear you cast, this shameless plot would have succeeded! "
"Not only Art of Fear, but he also cast Bloodlust on his griffin!" Old Gauss's hoarse voice resounded through the audience through the magic amplification. "Now, there are still residual magic waves on that griffin."
Art of Fear could make the target run away in fear, while Bloodlust was a magic that enhanced one's fighting spirit and combat power.
The audience finally understood why Athena's griffin was so abnormal just now. The crowd was agitated for a while. Alice was the first to jump up and shout, "Shameless! Despicable! Obscene! "
Before she could shout a few times, she was pulled back to her seat by Chen Rui and Kia. They tried their best to persuade her not to let the princess who represented the royal family continue to lose her composure, and the audience had already followed suit and started to scold.
"Leo, you are actually so unscrupulous to win. You have lost the face of our Alvin Family!" Joseph's figure instantly appeared in front of the trembling lich. The deep and gloomy tone actually overshadowed the cheers of the audience.
Without waiting for Leo to speak, Joseph's body shone with red light. His five fingers slightly pinched in the air, and the lich's head suddenly burst open.
As soon as the audience saw Joseph personally executing the cheater and Dark Moon successfully won the first round, they cheered again. Only some people, including Chen Rui, showed disdain: This is clearly a blatant silencing. Poor Leo, he died unjustly.
Joseph glanced at Athena who was slowly landing and said, "Congratulations, Athena. It turns out that you have successfully advanced to Higher Demon. It seems that our Great Demon tribe has another young genius."
Higher Demon! The 19-year-old Athena has actually reached this level. Then, will she break the upper limit of Great Demon in the future and become a Demon King or Great Demon King?
Alan looked shocked. He only felt that the distance between him and Athena was getting farther and farther.
