"After following me for so long, this is the best place to launch a sneak attack. If we go any further, there won't be any cover. Are you sure you can still pose a threat to me?" Li Yetong stopped and turned around, her twin ponytails flying in the air. Her face was full of confidence and arrogance.
Her arm was covered in the Ochs Clan's insignia, each one stained with dark red blood.
In this ultimate trial, there were very few people who could pose a threat to her.
The sound of footsteps came from the opposite forest. A tall warrior walked out of the forest and arrived at the empty space.
She was wearing gorgeous heavy armor and wielded an Origin Substance heavy sword with both hands. There was also a handgun at her waist.
The front of the heavy armor was inlaid with a black insignia that depicted a pair of open wings.
She was a member of the Black King's Ji Clan, who respected strength and cultivated like a wolf.
The black insignia was the same as the white dragon insignia on Li Yetong's body. It came from one of the most powerful factions in the Seven Continents.
"No wonder you dared to follow me. So you're from the Ji Clan." Li Yetong was a little surprised. Such a tall figure and wild attire was actually a woman.
"Ji Clan, Ji Ying." The mountain-like black-skinned girl was surrounded by a thick bloody aura. She was the Ji Clan's number one seed participating in this ultimate trial. Her only target was Bai Xintong, whom the Bai Clan had placed high hopes on.
"Bai Clan, Bai Xintong." Li Yetong nodded and raised the Origin Substance spear in her hand, which could be considered a greeting.
"You can sense that I'm following you because of the legendary Book of Prophecy?" Ji Ying asked curiously. Her tracking ability was the best among her peers. Li Yetong was the first person to discover her ahead of time.
"Unfortunately, that's not the case. The Book of Prophecy has been determined to be a super-tier weapon and cannot be used in the trial. I'm only using my normal senses. " Li Yetong shook her head and answered honestly. A Level 1 magician's strength was like a cheat in this kind of place. Most likely, the information outside was still stuck at the level of a Level 3 Magician's Apprentice.
Ji Ying was stunned. At the same time, Li Yetong leapt up from the ground like lightning. The Origin Substance spear in her hand rumbled, and several white pillars of Qi shot out.
Preemptive strike.
Ji Ying, who had lost the opportunity to make the first move, did not panic. Relying on her extraordinary reaction, the two-handed heavy sword swung out a few full circles like a ghost, blocking the incoming white pillars of Qi.
Borrowing the Origin Substance Spear's attack, Li Yetong arrived in front of Ji Ying in an instant. She punched out with one hand, and the air exploded as her small fist punched out.
[Enhance: Triple Attack]!
Ji Ying didn't expect that the petite Li Yetong would take the same path of close combat as her. She swung her heavy sword in a flurry, her blood-red eyes sharp. Her body was pushed back by the shockwave of the punch, leaving a deep mark on the ground.
"What a domineering power! Did you level up?!" Ji Ying was stunned. Under the effects of three times the normal attack, the Origin Substance heavy sword in her hand was actually beginning to show signs of cracking.
If this punch landed on his chest, would the heavy armor really be able to withstand it?
"Why don't you try and find out?" Li Yetong was too lazy to talk nonsense with her. She took a step forward and assumed an ancient martial arts stance.
When Bai Dongxue heard that she wanted to take the path of close combat, Bai Dongxue was shocked. In the Bai Clan, besides the White King, no one dared to deny her choice. With the White King's tacit approval, Li Yetong crazily studied all kinds of physical skills.
Her thinking was very simple. With her extraordinary analytical skills, coupled with her crushing physical skills, she wouldn't be at a disadvantage against any type of enemy.
Perhaps it was because she had been protected by Li Xiang too much since she was young, but Li Yetong's heart had always been filled with a raging fire. Once she had the chance, she wanted to completely release it and burn everything.
Li Yetong leapt forward again. Facing the Ji Clan, who was famous for their close combat, she attacked crazily without holding back. The referee's seat was stunned.
Equally shocking was her opponent, Ji Ying. Although they knew that this was the Seven Continents' New Year's Trials, since when were Level 3 Magic Apprentices so common?
She hadn't even entered University yet, but there were already so many good seeds?
This Bai Xintong was even more exaggerated. She had actually reached the level of a Level 1 Magician!
"Tsk tsk tsk, this year's competition is really fierce. I heard that the other Throne's trial-takers are also around Level 3 Magic Apprentices." In the referee's seat, Rocca, who had once again become a referee, was amazed. Last year, he had seen Li Xiang, who had set off a bloody storm in the trials. And this year, it was his sister who was a monster. This family's bloodline was really enviable.
Thinking of Li Xiang, Rocca couldn't help but recall the days in the Polar Night Training Camp. Back then, he had recommended him to the Polar Night Training Camp. Although it was according to the decree of the Polar Night Magician, his performance in the training camp was indeed monstrous. The Kuang Tie, who could compete with Li Xiang in the past, was now a few feet tall. Even if he was still alive, he could only be crushed, right?
"Isn't that so? But from what I see, that girl from the Nidri family who stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, is also not easy to deal with. She's not even old enough." A bewitching woman sat next to him, writing and drawing on a tablet. "When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. Perhaps the final winner will be that little girl."
Rocca was silent. He raised his head and continued to look at the screen.
From their point of view, the entire map could be seen. A petite gray figure was hiding in the distance.
This happened to be the limit. She had been maintaining this distance from the beginning, following Li Yetong and Ji Ying with precision and without being detected by them. It was as if she treated the two of them as prey.
In the battle, the two of them fought in close combat. The heavy armor on Ji Ying's body was finally unable to withstand Li Yetong's torrential punches, shattering into pieces. The opposing Origin Energy exploded, and a few magic spells smashed down. Ji Ying, whose combat strength was slightly inferior, was gradually unable to hold on.
She was now regretting her confidence in coming out to fight Li Yetong. There was an insurmountable gap between a Level-1 Magician and a Level-3 Magician's Apprentice. For a short period of time, she could still rely on her family's inherited magic, the vertical pupil, to fight Li Yetong, but as time passed, the gap between them widened.
In the next second, Ji Ying was sent flying by a punch. Blood gushed out of her mouth, and her hands were numb. Her heavy sword also fell to the ground.
"Hand over the badges you collected." Li Yetong stopped in her tracks. She knew that there were still some powerful warriors from the Oakes Family keeping an eye on Ji Ying. Killing Ji Ying was not possible. Five Thrones like her would be specially taken care of. She would be taken away when she was unable to fight.
This was a new rule this year. Who told her brother to kill so many people in the last trial?
The large factions encouraged the new generation to fight to the death, but they did not wish for them to die in meaningless infighting.
"Okay, here you go." Ji Ying did not hesitate. She wrapped all the badges in her clothes and threw them to her.
If she gave up these spoils of war, then Li Yetong would stop. If she was unwilling, Li Yetong would beat her until she completely lost her ability to fight and was carried away.
There was no need to lose her qualifications for these spoils of war that could still be taken back.
Li Yetong also did not want to completely fall out with the Ji family. She was not like her brother, who had irreconcilable conflicts with many factions. As the leader of the new generation of the Bai family, she wanted to use the convenience of this big tree to develop her own circle of contacts. In the future, she would be able to better help her brother.
Li Yetong reached out to take the package, but in that moment, her heart suddenly trembled.
The surrounding scenery changed. Countless thorns broke through the ground, sprouting and branching, budding and blooming. In the blink of an eye, it became a sea of roses.
Such a large change in the landscape shocked Ji Ying.
"Is this a domain-type taboo magic?!" Ji Ying exclaimed. Very few magicians below Level-3 would deliberately learn taboo magic. The requirements for taboo magic were too high, and the level was too low. A single taboo magic could drain a magician's core, so they never considered the possibility of encountering a taboo magic in a trial.
The red petals were as sharp as bayonets, easily cutting through her heavy armor.
Seeing the spreading roses about to drown Ji Ying, Li Yetong suddenly tore away the restraints in front of her and reached out to pull her up.
Puchi puchi —
The sea of roses covered Ji Ying's original position, and it suddenly became full of holes.
"Taboo magic? How does this girl know taboo magic?!" The old man sitting next to Dale abruptly stood up and stared at the screen in disbelief. He let out a similar exclamation as the audience below. His face was flushed, and his blood was boiling. He glared at Dale and said, "Dale, are you crazy? That child is just a magic apprentice, and you're teaching her taboo magic? "
"So what? If she wants to learn, I'll teach her. Is there a problem? Elder Yogurt. "Dale smiled faintly.
"When we return to the family, I will definitely impeach you in the Council of Elders, Dale. You gave Poyers nearly half of the family's resources for the younger generation, yet you rashly taught her taboo magic. If her core explodes, the family's resources will all be exhausted. Do you know how much loss we will suffer? "Yogurt was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"The Council of Elders? Those rotten old fogeys control the family, and that's why our Nidri family has never been able to go any further. Watch carefully, my child will give you a resounding slap in the face! "Dale responded disdainfully and continued to look at the screen.
The spreading roses suddenly narrowed Li Yetong's line of sight. She picked up Ji Ying's heavy sword and waved it hard, cutting the petals into pieces. Seeing that the heavy sword that required both hands to wield was nothing in Li Yetong's hands, Ji Ying realized that Li Yetong had been holding back in the battle just now.
"There!" Her sharp eyes suddenly locked onto Zhi Tong's position in the distance.
The heavy sword in her hand was thrown out in an instant, like a dazzling meteor, cutting through the sky.
At the same time, she saw a flash of light from the corner of her eye, and a terrifying white column of air whistled over.
This shot came without warning. Generally, at such a long distance, only a sniper rifle could display its power, but sniper users were extremely rare. Just like how no one would guard against taboo magic, very few people were on guard against sniper rifles.
But here, the hibernating opponent had mastered these two skills.
Li Yetong, who was holding Ji Ying in her hand, had no time to dodge. The only thing she could do was to use Ji Ying in her hand to block the attack, or take a gamble and take it head-on!
The powerhouses who were secretly observing in the surroundings cried out in alarm. Even they didn't notice the attack. If it hit, either Li Yetong or Ji Ying would die. This was their dereliction of duty!
Seeing this spear, Ji Ying knew that his time of death was near.
Even if Li Yetong really used her as a shield, she wouldn't complain. After all, she had just saved her life. A life for a life, it was very fair.
* Bang! *
To everyone's surprise, Li Yetong's body barely turned, and she actually used her chest to block the shot.
Both of them were blasted out of the sea of roses.
Without the shackles of taboo magic, Ji Ying felt that her breathing was a lot smoother. This kind of taboo magic was the most troublesome. Fighting inside it would greatly reduce one's strength.
She subconsciously touched her body and found that there were no injuries. She immediately looked nervously at Li Yetong beside her, afraid to see a girl with a big hole in her chest.
Li Yetong, who had also fallen to the ground, jumped up like a carp and got up faster than her. Under Ji Ying's stunned gaze, she continued to chase after the enemy hiding in the dark.
All that was left was a broken heavy sword and the bag of badges that had not been taken away.
"How is this possible!" Dale's eyes widened. As a player, she didn't think that Li Yetong could be unharmed after taking a shot and still chase after Yu Zhitong.
Could it be that the White King gave her something to save her life?
Impossible, all such super grade items were prohibited from being brought into the trial site.
"It's an inherited magic trick, the Bai family's inherited magic trick." A voice sounded from below. "Their inherited magic tricks are all strange. Look at the slow-motion playback. Li Yetong was indeed hit, but the Origin Energy and magic particles disappeared in an instant."
[Inheritance – Backtrack].
This was Li Yetong's inherited magic trick.
The only people who knew about this magic trick were her and the White King.
But after today's battle, this magic trick would probably spread.
Inherited magic tricks were different from normal magic tricks. After becoming a player, they would also advance. It was an innate talent, and also a bloodline advantage of the Five Great Royal Families.
The other four Great Royal Families' inherited magic tricks were fixed. Although they were strong, there were ways to deal with them. Only the Bai family's magic trick was uncertain. It varied from person to person. Some were useless, while others were very powerful.
Her inherited magic trick was very practical, and could even be said to be very shameless. It could backtrack a fatal injury. It could only be used once a day, but it was equivalent to having an extra life. In battle, this meant that they would have to deal two fatal blows to kill her.
It was fine when she was at a lower level, but when she was at a higher level, this ability would be too troublesome for the enemy. Killing her once was already exhausting, so how could they kill her twice?
Far away, Yu Zhitong hugged an extremely long sniper rifle that was several times larger than her body. The naivety on her cheeks was swept away, and her bloodthirsty killing intent could not be concealed. Her eyes were filled with darkness and haze. She had not expected that her shot would miss at all.
This was her first miscalculation.
She had been searching for Li Yetong since the beginning of the trial. She had been following her all this time. She had placed all her attention on her, but she had still failed!
The wind blew her long hair, and a line of blood spread from her right cheek to her chest. The broken heavy sword on her back was stabbed into the rock.
Just a bit more, and the heavy sword would have pierced through her body!
