Although there were no powerful demon beasts in the Dark Wood World, there were a lot of demonic plants.
In particular, there was a kind of "Withered Snake Vine" that was attached to towering trees. It could reach up to several hundred meters long and was as thick as a python. The surface of the vine also contained corrosive sap. Once entangled by it, it would be extremely troublesome.
Fifty students wearing the Crystal Suit were making the final adjustments nervously.
Li Yao observed his opponents carefully.
After two months of hard training, everyone's capability had improved significantly. They were now wearing their crystal suits in a graceful manner, as if they were one.
Most of them were in the high level of the Refinement Stage. Together with the enhancement of the Crystal Suit, the aura around them was as strong as that of a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator.
It was destined to be a fierce battle!
While Li Yao was observing his teammates, they were observing him, too.
Today, he had chosen the Bloody Blade Battlesuit that he was used to. The only difference was that he had sprayed a layer of camouflage on the surface of the Crystal Suit, which turned it into a mottled yellowish green.
But nobody dared to underestimate him anymore.
Anyone who had killed Zhou Zhenghao, the 'Iron Man', could not be an ordinary rookie.
Long Qianyue and Yuan Yeshi scanned the features of Li Yao's Crystal Suit carefully. They were both calculating their tactics.
Very soon, a countdown appeared on the light beam of everyone's mainframe crystal processor.
Three! Two! One!
The second round of the elimination match had begun!
Fifty Crystal Suit rushed into the primitive forest from the east, south, west, and north, spurting out powerful exhaust flames.
The moment he entered the forest, Li Yao set the power rune arrays to the minimum and entered the stealth state. He moved around silently.
He was not in a hurry to search for the light spots scattered in the forest. Instead, he decided to familiarize himself with the terrain and figure out the best way to fight in the forest.
"Chiliu!"
A Dry Snake Vine stabbed at him brutally.
"Shua!"
His saber flashed. The Dry Snake Vine was cut apart.
Li Yao narrowly dodged the corrosive liquid that spurted out from the fracture. The liquid splashed onto the ground, making a sizzling sound and emitting a pungent stench.
Li Yao calmly looked around, all the plants in the Dark Wood World were incomparably huge. Even the thorns were thicker than his thighs, and the trees were no less than 100 meters tall, forming an overwhelming cage.
He stayed in the depths of the forest for a long time until he heard the faint sounds of fighting and explosions. Only then did he turn his attention to the map.
Two hundred dots of light shone on the map.
Some of them gathered together and emitted an incomparably dazzling light. It was even more eye-catching than fireflies in the dark night.
These little dots of light had all been taken away by the students, and there weren't many left.
Li Yao was guided by the map. He leaped between the towering trees like an agile ape, advancing at high speed.
Soon, he found a small dot of light floating in the air between the branches.
The glittering miniature beast puppet flew to a high altitude the moment it sensed the approach of the crystal suit.
Li Yao's feet stomped heavily on the towering tree like an arrow leaving the bow. He instantly grabbed the small dot of light in his hand.
His spirit threads surged into the miniature puppet beast's body and activated the controlling spirit.
The miniature puppet beast obediently hovered above his head.
The first dot of light. Got it!
Soon, the second and third dots of light also danced happily above Li Yao's head.
However, he could see the dots of light on the map, but so could the others.
As more and more dots of light were snatched away. There were too many wolves and too little meat, so conflicts quickly occurred.
Under the fourth dot of light, Li Yao and a student met in a narrow path.
There were already four dots of light hovering above the student's head.
The two of them quietly confronted each other.
There were only eight dots of light in total. It was not enough for either of them to win.
Therefore, the two of them did not make a move immediately.
A moment later, Li Yao slowly retreated and disappeared into the darkness.
The student opposite him was slightly relieved. He thought that Li Yao was afraid of his strength and did not want to fight to the death with him over a dot of light.
But out of his expectation, the moment he slightly relaxed, Li Yao lunged out of the darkness like a weird boa.
He retreated just to open up the distance and make it easier for him to sprint.
Fast!
Li Yao's speed was too fast!
The student had long guessed that Li Yao was not a rookie, but he did not expect his strength to be so terrifying!
There was no time to dodge. He could only wave his chainsword instinctively!
The corner of Li Yao's eyes twitched wildly. He faced the chainsword and rushed up.
He bent his body slightly and allowed the chainsword to cut a deep wound on his left shoulder armor. An arc of light that looked like a crescent moon exploded from the bottom to the top, directly breaking the student's spiritual shield and slashing at the weakest part of the armor on his neck.
Dazzling spiritual sparks suddenly burst out of the student's Crystal Suit. The system instantly determined that he was "dead" and he was slumped in the bushes, unable to move.
The dots of light hovering above his head also regained their freedom. Li Yao used his spiritual threads to hook and pull them to the top of his head.
Now, Li Yao had eight dots of light.
They also became particularly bright on the map.
He did not even need to search with telepathic thoughts. He could sense that there were a few Crystal Suit approaching at high speed not far away.
He moved his shoulder. Although its defense was lowered, it did not affect the movement of his left shoulder.
Li Yao licked his lips and began to nervously make arrangements.
Half a minute later.
"Huala!"
A Crystal Suit rushed out of the bushes and pounced toward the target it had just locked onto.
Only when it was close did it discover that the "target" was stiff and motionless. There was not a single dot of light above his head. The system had determined that he was "dead"!
Above his head, two Withered Snake Vines darted down with incomparable ferocity.
He waved his vibration saber fiercely and twisted the two Withered Snake Vines into pieces. Before he could take a breath, a chainsword suddenly appeared from the towering tree in front of him and ruthlessly pierced his chest, eliminating him in an instant.
It turned out that Li Yao had dug a hole in the middle of the towering tree in advance and only pasted a layer of bark on the outside.
Under the surge of spiritual energy, the chainsword shot out and hit the target.
This student. Fell down in utter astonishment.
Two small dots of light slowly floated up.
Li Yao smiled slightly. His spiritual threads stretched out and sucked the two dots of light to the top of his head.
Ten dots of light had been collected!
The countdown began. He had to keep these dots of light for ten minutes!
He had obtained ten dots of light. The light he emitted on the map had also turned into a dangerous red. He had become the target of public criticism.
Li Yao did not hesitate and took to his heels.
In less than two seconds, more than ten flying swords were inserted into the ground where he had just stood.
Soon, three or four tails followed behind him.
Li Yao displayed the movement technique he had cultivated in the sandstorm to the limit. He was like a withered leaf in a violent wind, his figure erratic.
Sometimes, he would rush up to the crown of the towering tree that was hundreds of meters high. Sometimes, he would entangle himself in the tangled branches at an extremely fast speed. Sometimes, he would dive down as if his life depended on it. Only when he was half a meter away from the ground did he forcefully pull himself up.
The three or four tails following behind him were gradually unable to bear it.
Two of the Crystal Suit even fiercely collided with each other because of Li Yao's exquisite small-scale movements.
The distance between the two sides was increasing.
At this moment, on Li Yao's path forward, the bark of a towering tree suddenly twisted strangely. A faint sharp light flashed out.
Li Yao felt as if his heart had been pierced by a needle. His eyelids were violently twitching. He hurriedly turned, but it was already too late. He could only raise his left arm and barely block it.
With a "whoosh", his left arm felt as if it had been burned by fire. The flow of information in his brain was crazily beating. All the functions of his left arm had been completely lost.
If it was on a real battlefield. His left arm would have been cut off by someone.
A strange-looking Crystal Suit gradually appeared from the trunk of the tree.
This Crystal Suit was tall and thin. Its entire body was dark green. At the end of each of its arms was an arc-shaped scythe that was covered with sawtooth. It was like a metal praying mantis.
"The Green Scythe Battlesuit is one of the most dangerous close-range Crystal Suit. There are four mimicry array glyphs engraved on the armor. It has the ability to change color and mimic. The arc-shaped chainswords on the arms can even tear apart the shell of a Demon General!"
Li Yao remembered that the user of this Green Scythe Battlesuit was Yuan Yeshi.
"Mr. Li Yao, I didn't expect that you would make such great progress in only two months. You were able to dodge my fatal strike. Impressive!"
Seven light spots were hovering above Yuan Yeshi's head. The arc-shaped chainswords on his arms that looked like giant scythes made sparks when they touched each other. He smiled and said,
"I really want to know how you defeated Zhou Zhenghao a month ago. Please show me everything you've got and tell me the answer!"
Li Yao took a deep breath and squatted down.
In his pupils, two clusters of sandstorms were condensing.
Suddenly, his eyes blinked. His killing intent was gone, and he continued to run into the forest.
Yuan Yeshi was dazed. He didn't understand why Li Yao chose to run away when he had increased his killing intent to the maximum and was ready to fight to the death.
Half a second later, a Crystal Suit that looked like a Silver Fox in the Moon appeared next to Yuan Yeshi.
It was the Moon Fox Battlesuit that Long Qianyue was wearing!
Nine light spots were hovering above her head.
The other four hunters finally arrived, only to find that the two experts in the training camp had already arrived.
Looking at each other in bewilderment, the four of them retreated silently.
Yuan Yeshi's expression changed. He crossed his arc-shaped chainswords in front of his chest, as if he were facing a great enemy.
Long Qianyue glanced at him and shook her head. She said casually, "I know your capability. I'm not interested in you."
After that, she turned into a streak of silver light and dashed toward the direction where Li Yao was running.
Yuan Yeshi was dazed. His face was burning red. He roared in his mind, "Long Qianyue, if we really fight, I might be able to defeat you. Don't be so arrogant!"
Gritting his teeth, he took a big detour and chased after her from another direction.
