"This is so infuriating!"
Mu Tingying was a prideful person. She was the first to express her dissatisfaction.
What do you mean we don't know how to be humble, and we don't need to be humble? Are all the Americans so arrogant!?
The others remained silent. It was indeed difficult to get a medal from the American team. They had taken a quick glance at the list of countries. Many of them were ranked higher than China, yet they had lost to the American team. It clearly showed how strong they were!
Oleena led the team to the front of the American team. There were about seven or eight people there. One of them was a handsome man with a turban on his head. It was not because of his outstanding appearance, but because he was scolding his teammates loudly.
"This is our captain, Pauling," said Fred.
Roberts stopped scolding. He turned around and glanced at the members of the China team. He said, "Let's not waste any more time. Shall we go and fight them?"
"Shouldn't we discuss the rules of the duel first?" Nan Jue felt that Roberts was being too impatient.
"Oh, right, so we'll have five against five, and decide the winner in one round?" Roberts said.
Nan Jue discussed it with the others. They all agreed that they had a higher chance of winning the duel as a team.
Roberts was indeed straightforward. He immediately started choosing his teammates. Oleena's brother, Fred, volunteered himself. He even glanced at Mofan, as if to say, "Just wait and see."
"Your brother, it seems like he wants to have a friendly duel with me," Mo Fan said to Oleena when he sensed Fred's provocation.
"I don't think he's a match for you," Oleena said honestly.
Oleena had seen how Mofan dealt with Casso, the leader of the Red Ornaments Guild. The strength he had displayed was shocking. Oleena knew her brother's strength very well. There was no way he could beat a freak like Mofan.
Oleena's words immediately enraged Fred. He said, "I don't think it's a big deal even if I capture a lowly bandit with my own hands. I don't think he's stronger than me. Don't talk nonsense over there. Come at me, and I'll show you my true strength!"
Mo Fan smiled. He glanced at Ai Jiangtu, who was about to step into the arena, and stopped him, "As the captain, you shouldn't make a move so easily. It's not a good thing to expose yourself too much."
Ai Jiangtu could no longer sit still after encountering a strong opponent. He was planning to take part in the match himself. However, if he had to ask his captain to take part in the match, wouldn't it mean that he would have no chance of taking on a real team in the World College Tournament in Venice?
Ai Jiangtu couldn't go up. He had to hold back.
"We didn't get any medals from Peru. If we lose another one here, it's going to affect our progress. Just to be safe, I'll do it," said Ai Jiangtu seriously.
As a matter of fact, Ai Jiangtu was displeased by the arrogance of the American team. Didn't they never taste defeat before? He was going to let them experience it today.
"Stop arguing with each other. Come at me together. We're going to take the medal," said Nan Jue straightforwardly.
With Mofan and Ai Jiangtu, Nan Jue didn't believe they couldn't beat the American team!
"Sure, let's go together. We still need to pick three more people," said Ai Jiangtu.
"I'll do it," said Mu Tingying.
After Mu Ningxue returned to the team, Mu Tingying was eager to prove herself. She decided to strike first, just so that Mu Ningxue would not steal the limelight again.
Defeating a national team that had yet to lose a single match was something worth bragging about!
"Ice Element, mm, let's pick someone with the Summoning Element."
"Do we need someone with destructive Spells?"
"I don't think so, Mofan is more than enough."
"Then let's pick the Psychic Element, Jiang Shaoxu."
"The Psychic Element isn't that useful. Let's pick Nan Rongni. Her primary Element is Healing, her secondary Element is Plant, and her secondary Element is Blessing. These are the most effective Elements in a team battle."
After some discussion, the team of five was decided: Ai Jiangtu, Mofan, Jiang Yu, Mu Tingying, and Nan Rongni.
The five people on the other side were their captain, Roberts, Fred, a woman with golden-brown hair, a tall man around one hundred and ninety centimeters tall, and a girl in a green shirt.
The two sides could be said to have fought without any unnecessary formalities.
…
? On the dueling ground, Mofan noticed that the members of the American team had stern looks on their faces. It was obvious that they were treating the match seriously.
Mofan glanced at the five people on the other side. As he was trying to guess their Elements, a familiar voice appeared in his mind. It sounded like the cry of a fairy descending from the starry sky, melodious like a song.
"Ning ~ Ning ~ Ning ~"
Mo Fan quickly checked his Contract Space and realized that Little Flame Belle had woken up at the same time.
The brown flame had become even more dangerous and mysterious. As it spread into the surroundings, a pair of slender, fiery legs slowly appeared.
When Little Flame Belle was in her Juvenile Phase, she was as round as a ball. Her short legs were kicking all day long, as if she never got tired of it. To Mofan's surprise, Little Flame Belle's legs had grown longer as she entered the Adolescent Phase. She now had the silhouette and figure of a beautiful young woman …
Perhaps it was because Little Flame Belle had watched too many cartoons, or it was her natural appearance during the Adolescent Phase, but there were two fiery red flowers on Little Flame Belle's head, giving her an aura similar to that of an anime character.
The contours of her face were quite obvious, too. Her round eyes were flickering like black gemstones, quite alluring!
Flames were still circling her, but unlike the chaotic Illusory Flames from before, the color of the Calamity Fire engulfing her was darker, and more solid. From afar, she looked more like a woman in a fiery red outfit. One could easily sense her holiness and spirituality. Even the flames were slightly gentle …
"Wu wu wu ~"
Little Flame Belle cried out happily, as if she was asking for a hug from her father after not seeing him for years.
"Calm down, calm down, we happen to have a duel. You'll have the chance to show off your strength later," Mofan did not let Little Flame Belle fly out. He told her patiently.
Little Flame Belle flew around the Contracted Space excitedly when she heard that there was a fight to be had. She seemed to have mastered the ability to float in the air after reaching the Adolescent Phase. Her slender legs in red stockings did not even need to touch the ground, yet they were able to form fiery stamens under her feet, which barely counted as her footprints.
"Alright, let's begin!" Oleena declared the start of the duel as the referee.
Jiang Yu was standing at the back of the team. As the Summoner of the team, he was in need of protection, just like Nanrong Ni. Some cunning Magicians would bypass the Summoned Beasts and attack the Summoner himself instead.
Jiang Yu did not summon the Night Rakshasa. He had to let his Rock Beast take a look at the duel.
Jiang Yu soon summoned his Summoned Beast. A Rock Beast with a white, granite body stepped forward. Its enormous size immediately intimidated everyone in the dueling ground!
The Rock Beast let out a thunderous roar as it stood at the front of the team, like a sturdy shield at the front of the formation.
The Rock Beast's defense was shocking. The Basic Spells that the American team had cast to probe the duel were completely ineffective against it. The Rock Beast simply took all the spells head-on.
"How dare you Summon such a clumsy creature? What a disgrace," Fred mocked.
Saying this, Fred shoved his hand forward. An icy aura sprang forward and landed on one of the Rock Beast's arms.
Fred threw out a series of palm strikes. The power of frost froze different parts of the Rock Beast's body.
Rock Beasts were extremely afraid of the Ice Element. Even though their defense was so strong that even the Lightning Element could not penetrate their defense, they were still afraid of the Ice Element.
Not long after, two-thirds of the Rock Beast's body was covered in frost. Jiang Yu had no choice but to ask it to back off for now.
Without the Rock Beast as a shield, the American team was able to break through the China team's formation.
A battle between Advanced Magicians was no longer a battle where the Magicians on both sides would bombard their opponents with spells from afar. Some Advanced Magicians could even fight at close range as they gradually gained control of their magic and developed more ingenious abilities.
Jiang Yu was initially planning to ask the Rock Beast to back off and continue the duel after the frost dissipated. To his surprise, the tall man on the American team suddenly stepped forward. His salt-like skin was suddenly covered in a layer of gray-white rocks …
"What's that guy doing? Petrifying himself? "Jiang Yu asked in confusion.
Soon, the huge man on the American team was covered in a layer of gray-white rocks. As a matter of fact, the gray-white rocks had a metallic luster to them, making them look extremely sturdy!
"BANG!"
The guy who had petrified himself was able to move freely. He charged forward and rammed into Jiang Yu's Rock Beast with his hardened body.
The Rock Beast was as thick as a villa, yet its legs were shattered into pieces when the petrified man rammed into it!
On the other hand, the huge man was not injured at all!
The people below the stage couldn't help but gasp at this scene.
Hardened Skin!
The American team member was clearly a terrifying close-range Magician, similar to Casso's Poisoned Flesh Armor, with enhanced close-range combat capabilities!
As they thought, Advanced Magicians had different ways of using their magic due to their control over it. For example, a Magician with petrified skin had a sturdier body than the Rock Beast!
