Mochizuki Chihaya was sitting in a row behind the nine people. She seemed to be the captain of the team.
Behind her were Mochizuki No Ken, the Japanese Commander, Nobuko Fujikata, and the others. They were the advisors and the leaders of the West Guard Pavilion.
On both sides of the seats were a group of people wearing similar outfits. They consisted of the students, scholars, soldiers, officers, captains, and guests of the West Guard Pavilion. There were not many of them, only around thirty of them.
The duel at the Training Hall was not open to the public, thus they only needed to pick some witnesses. No cameras were allowed, either.
Gong Yu knew the basic etiquette as soon as he stepped onto the stage.
He glanced at the nine students in front of him, before glancing at Mochizuki Chihaya, who was sitting at the back.
It was obvious that Mochizuki Chihaya was the captain of the group, and she was most likely the strongest among them. Gong Yu was quite proud of himself. He was considering if he should challenge the strongest among them.
However, he gave up on the thought in the end. He was more interested in taking out the golden-haired Okamoto. Besides, Mochizuki Chihaya had already displayed her outstanding Plant Magic at the entrance of the West Guard Pavilion. Gong Yu would have a hard time dealing with a Plant Magician.
"What are you waiting for? Come up here and get your ass kicked," Gong Yu pointed at Okamoto with a disdainful grin.
"Don't be so full of yourself." Okamoto rose to his feet and bowed to the leaders, teachers, students, and witnesses behind him, before heading to the dueling ground.
…
The two were ready to fight. As soon as Nobuko Fujikata announced the start of the duel, the two immediately turned into blurry shadows, moving rapidly across the spacious dueling ground!
The blurry shadows were moving rapidly, as if there were many people running across the dueling ground at the same time. Some of the Magicians with weaker cultivations could not even tell when the two were fighting, or when the spells were colliding …
"Both of them are speed-type Magicians, this is getting interesting," Advisor Nobuko Fujikata chuckled.
"There's something strange about the gauntlet of the Chinese representative." The Japanese Commander quickly noticed Gong Yu's trump card.
"He's like an assassin, tearing his enemy apart with his speed, and dodging the fatal blow like the wind. It seems like the duel between them will either last for a long time, or end in an instant," said Mochizuki No Ken.
"Chihaya, who do you think is going to win?" asked Advisor Nobuko Fujikata.
"I'm afraid their speed is faster … they are using their magic Equipment."
It was a duel between two opponents who was faster. The duel between Speed and Mai Ken's speed was was was no match.... the duel between the two 'and Mai Ken''s speed.
His speed's's's was a Level. was Chihaya ''s's a Magician was a Ken.....
Both Chihaya and Gong Yu were equipped with Magician Boots. Most interestingly, Gong Yu's Magician Boots seemed to be slightly weaker than Chihaya's. As a result, their speed was almost equal when both of them were using their Magician Boots!
On second thought, it did make sense. Gong Yu had spent quite a lot of money on the special gauntlet. Since he had spent a lot of resources here, it was unlikely that he would be able to equip himself with the best equipment in other places.
The dueling ground was filled with the Wind Tracks that the two had set up. They were like countless blue tracks that intertwined with one another in the dueling ground. Both of them were very experienced at controlling the wind. Not only were they able to move with their Wind Tracks, they were also able to control their opponent's Wind Tracks …
The duel started on the ground, and soon turned into a duel in the air. Gong Yu was using his gauntlet to search for the perfect opportunity and angle to win the duel, while Chihaya was dodging the sharp blades with his nimble movements and sharp senses. The duel had been going on for quite some time, yet the outcome of the duel was still undecided.
It was just as Mochizuki No Ken had mentioned. The duel would either go on for quite some time, or the duel would go on for quite some time. As time gradually passed, the two were looking for the perfect opportunity to strike. They were probing their opponent's strength, yet they did not go all out.
The duel between them was more like a fencing match. If they were probing their opponent's strength with their attacks, it would make it easier for them to defend themselves. However, if they were trying to penetrate deep into the enemy's defense, they would immediately expose their weaknesses, allowing their opponent to seize the opportunity.
Gong Yu was attacking, yet he did not dare to go too deep into the duel. He could tell that his opponent was cunning enough to wait for a chance to counterattack when he was dodging his attacks without panicking!
…
"Such a boring duel, I'm starting to feel sleepy. If it was me, I would have smashed that little brother Zhao Manyan into pieces with just a few spells." Mofan could not help but feel sleepy after eating his fill.
This kind of swaying battle was tiring to look at, so he simply couldn't be bothered to watch.
However, as Mofan was about to doze off, an ear-piercing metallic sound woke up Mofan, who was about to close his eyes to rest.
He took a closer look and realized that the spikes on Gong Yu's gauntlet had pierced into Okamoto's armor. Fresh blood was pouring out from the wound.
However, Gong Yu was also blown away by a strong gust of wind. He was knocked flying into the air and slammed heavily onto the ground.
Okamoto was about to cast another spell to deal a heavy blow to Gong Yu, but the pain from his shoulder and chest interrupted his Intermediate Spell, thus he did not have the chance to counterattack.
Gong Yu felt a little dizzy after landing on the ground. He rose to his feet in pain.
He stared at Okamoto with a hint of astonishment and anger.
Gong Yu initially thought he had won the duel. To his surprise, Okamoto had set up a Wind Disc Trap. Luckily, he had managed to injure Okamoto before the Wind Disc Trap was activated, preventing him from casting an offensive spell. Otherwise, he would be completely defenseless after being knocked unconscious!
"Cunning prick," Gong Yu harrumphed coldly.
"Don't overdo it, the representative of China's national team, Gong Yu, wins," said Nobuko Fujikata.
It was one thing for Nobuko Fujikata to dislike the Chinese, but the duel had to be fair. Okamoto had indeed lost the duel, as he had underestimated Gong Yu's speed and the delay from the Wind Disc Trap.
Soon, someone from the Japanese team stepped forward to treat Okamoto's injuries.
Jiang Yu took Gong Yu's medicine, and Nanrong Ni checked his condition.
"A few of his bones are broken, stay still," Nanrong Ni scanned Guan Yu's body with her hand and immediately knew the extent of his injuries.
"That bad?" asked Jiang Yu curiously.
"Humph, I almost pierced through his fortress, that guy must be in a worse state than me!" said Gong Yu stubbornly.
"The last duel was so exciting, I almost thought you were going to lose the duel. I didn't expect you to be so bold as to use your speed to break through the Wind Disc Trap," said Zu Jiming.
"I'll go next, it's embarrassing to be in such a miserable state against a mere defender," mocked Mofan, who had no sympathy for Gong Yu.
"Sure, I'll go last … but, don't lose the duel, otherwise, my duel will be meaningless," said Jiang Shaoxu.
"Don't worry, I'll beat the crap out of that Japanese woman," said Mofan, patting his chest.
