Chapter 10, The Battle of Xia Ling
Warriors can only fly through the air upon reaching the Nirvana realm, while mages, due to their powerful souls, can successfully communicate with the elements of heaven and earth, allowing them to ascend into the sky even before reaching the Transformation realm
Dragon Slayer Spear
Zhou Huan looked over at Xia Ling again; among them, the only ones he recognized were Liu Yue and Xia Ling.
Indeed, this warrior was unable to break through the second layer of the magical shield and was instead bounced back.
Xia Ling's opponent is a magician; however, fortunately, he is not at the Transformation Realm and is not of the Wind Element, so they can only engage in combat on the ground
At this moment, the magician suddenly moved, not towards the direction of the warrior, but upwards towards the sky, meaning that the magician had now taken to the air.
Zhou Huan still guessed something, but he was not very certain
Do not be too arrogant; are you certain you can defeat me? You merely forcefully enhance your cultivation, what qualifications do you have to speak of me
Hmph, encountering me is your misfortune. It is a pity for your teacher, who does not know the great cost incurred to elevate you to the Transformation Realm, only to end up with such a brief experience.
She gritted her teeth and unleashed an enormous fireball, a powerful single-target attack spell, which was aimed directly at Xia Ling
The first round of the elimination matches has concluded, leaving sixteen individuals remaining. Among them, there are ten in the Transformation Realm, including Zhou Huan, and six at the peak of the Spirit Transformation.
There are even more terrifying wind element magicians. This type of magician, due to their mastery over wind elements, can fly using wind elements in the Spirit Transformation Realm
In the evening, the old man Wind came knocking again
Zhou Huan took his position, and as expected, the opponent was a Transformation Realm magician
After understanding Zhou Huan's strength, Old Man Feng finally felt greatly relieved
Oh? Now it is my turn to attack
Haha, you should just go down to avoid embarrassment
A genius is a genius; which genius does not possess extraordinary treasures? Even that genius who reached the Transformation Stage at the age of sixteen also had extraordinary treasures. You have already broken his record, and he is someone who has successfully ascended to divinity
Of course, teacher, but please do not underestimate the students
With a mighty roar, the warrior thrust the spear, charged with spiritual energy, directly at the magician, the immense power capable of instantly destroying the arena.
Indeed, at this moment, Liu Yue was in the air, bombarding a warrior below with relentless attacks, and it seemed there was no suspense left.
Oh? I believe it is you who should go down; otherwise, it may not only be your teacher who fails to recognize you, but even your parents might not recognize you either
Zhou Huan leaped into the air, continuously stepping on empty space to ascend to a considerable height before slowly descending back to the ground
Young man, you are refusing the toast and opting for the penalty drink. Today, I shall make you experience the terror of dark magic
Zhou Huan could sense the mysterious energy within Xia Ling. He had never been able to figure out what it was, nor did he dare to ask her. However, Xia Ling's fluctuating spiritual power must be related to that mysterious energy.
The female sorceress quickly began her attack, not expecting that Xia Ling was a warrior capable of fighting in the air, which gave her a sense of foreboding
"You saw it all today, right? One type of magician can fly, and another can use high-level equipment to cast advanced magic beyond their level. Can you handle that?" Old Wind asked.
Zhou Huan looked at the opposing magician with even more disdain. With those spirit treasure-level battle boots, Zhou Huan was now capable of confronting a strong opponent at the early stage of Nirvana, let alone the small magician in the God Transformation stage before him
Zhou Huan was overjoyed. Although he could rely on his powerful spiritual energy to hover briefly in the air, this consumed a great deal of energy and the duration of the hover was too short. While he could contend with a magician, it would still pose some difficulties.
This... so many, just like the books, I also need to strike with all my might to shatter them completely. How could an ordinary realm possibly shatter so many? This protective magic should indeed be a spell that only a Nirvana realm expert can use
Seeing a warrior across the way, the mage of the Transformation Realm sneered disdainfully, as if envisioning himself already advancing to the top eight
This warrior seems to lack confidence even before the battle begins, while the magician is full of assurance, not believing there is any possibility of defeat, revealing a clear disparity between them
All manner of magical attacks surged towards Xia Ling, yet she did not evade them. Instead, she stepped forward, walking directly towards the magician, treading upon the void.
Haha ... ... it is truly incredible, I never would have imagined that in my lifetime I would encounter such a genius
As expected, Xia Ling slowly rose into the air, facing the female sorceress directly
He naturally hopes that Xia Ling will win the competition, but if that happens, the two of them will end up facing each other
Although Zhou Huan was not afraid of the so-called dark magic, he was not prepared to wait for it to be fully cast. He leaped into the air, utilizing the abilities of the Spirit Treasure Battle Boots, and almost instantaneously arrived in front of the magician, then struck down with a sword onto the dark staff.
The dark sorcerer had only recited half of the incantation when he was suddenly struck by Zhou Huan, causing him to be directly knocked down from the sky and thrown out of the arena
The warrior does not engage in idle talk; if there is an opportunity to gain the upper hand, one should seize it without hesitation, especially since he originally lacked confidence in defeating this magician
This warrior wields a gun, gathering powerful spiritual energy at the tip of the gun, and thrusts it directly at the magician
Thank you, teacher. With these battle boots, I will easily defeat those magicians and surely win the championship
Due to Xia Lingling's occasional enhancement of spiritual power to the Transformation Realm, he is generally stronger than his opponent. He finally seized the opportunity and defeated that magician
Under the realm of Nirvana, the magician indeed took great advantage of the map and the book, however, the teacher was overly concerned; I am not an ordinary warrior
The third day of the college competition
This large fireball possesses such strong energy that it should not be something that can be unleashed by an ordinary divine realm. The enhancement from a spiritual treasure is indeed significant
Zhou Huan spoke the truth; that mirror allowed him to progress from the initial stage of transformation to the peak in just one month, a feat that he himself found incredible at the time
Zhou Huan, who was standing nearby, was stunned. He finally understood what was meant by an advantage: one could fly while the other could not. How could they possibly compete?
At this moment, Old Man Feng took out a pair of shoes, and the powerful fluctuation of spiritual energy allowed Zhou Huan to immediately recognize that these were a pair of spiritual treasure battle boots
Have you... already reached the pinnacle of transformation? How could you possibly hover briefly in mid-air
This is ... ... a defensive formation. She can actually form the required formation at any time using her spiritual power, and can engage in battle at any moment. She is truly a genius in formations
The magician, upon seeing that his opponent was a warrior, although at the same transformation realm as himself, was still filled with disdain
The warrior, upon witnessing this, was filled with unwillingness, yet ultimately stepped down himself, for he could not even touch the magician at all; to continue would only lead to his own humiliation.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan furrowed his brows
Zhou Huan secretly praised that whether on the Xuanhuang Continent or the Tiangang Continent, there are very few individuals skilled in formations
Zhou Huan's physical and spiritual strength now rivals that of a practitioner who has just entered the Nirvana realm, yet his level is insufficient for flight. However, he can manage brief moments of hovering. In his previous life, his celestial techniques were designed for long-range attacks, rendering him unafraid of whether his opponent was on the ground or in the air.
The female sorceress was immediately taken aback; in order to make it difficult for Xia Ling to evade, she specifically cast a large-scale spell, only to find that it didn't even graze the hem of her opponent's clothing
However, behind the shattered magical shield, another magical shield appeared. Zhou Huan secretly scanned with his divine sense and discovered that there were as many as nine magical shields.
Zhou Huan immediately recognized that this powerful magic was cast using the spiritual treasure staff.
Zhou Huan thought of this and instinctively looked at Liu Yue, knowing that Liu Yue was a wind element magician
Young man, I suggest you go down by yourself; otherwise, you might get beaten to the point where your teacher won't recognize you, and that wouldn't be good
Reaching the pinnacle of transformation, and no longer fearing the flight of the sorcerer, one only needs to be cautious of the occasionally appearing advanced magic that transcends the sorcerer's own realm. Such magic generally requires the aid of special equipment and cannot be cast multiple times.
Xia Ling has not yet truly entered the Transformation Realm, and she is still a warrior. Under normal circumstances, she would have no chance against a Transformation Mage. However, she did not concede defeat and leave the stage; instead, she prepared to fight, clearly indicating that she must have made some preparations.
At this moment, Zhou Huan began to look towards Xia Ling, as according to the schedule, his next opponent would be determined from the match between Xia Ling and her opponent
Soon, the magical attacks arrived not far in front of Xia Ling. Suddenly, a brilliant light surrounded Xia Ling, and all the magical attacks vanished instantly as they approached her.
However, the magician did not evade; instead, he held his staff and recited a spell, quickly forming a series of solid magical shields in front of him
The sorcerer was enraged, raising his dark staff high and ascending into the air, beginning to recite a lengthy incantation.
This magician is surprisingly able to use magic beyond his level, and this protective magic alone is sufficient to keep him invincible
Zhou Huan looked at a female magician in the sky. If he was not mistaken, the staff in her hand should be a spiritual treasure
Zhou Huan nodded slightly. If he wanted to defeat the flying magician without revealing his cultivation techniques, reaching the peak of the Transformation Stage was essential; otherwise, how could he even touch the opponent's clothing, let alone fight?
Zhou Huan continued to look at Liu Yue, as the warrior on the ground from m.hetushu.com could no longer withstand the relentless bombardment from the air and voluntarily conceded.
This left Old Man Feng dumbfounded
In order to compensate for the shortcomings of the warrior in this regard, I specifically borrowed a pair of spirit treasure-level battle boots for you. These boots allow for effortless high jumps and enable one to remain airborne for a considerable duration, all while consuming minimal spiritual energy. I believe you will find them useful.
However, this magician was indeed impressed; Zhou Huan's single move to defeat him was clearly not due to luck, and his strength was undoubtedly superior to his own
Old Feng arrived at the competition stage early, accompanied by Zhou Huan, Xia Ling, and others
With this pair of battle boots, everything is different. The capabilities of the boots, combined with Zhou Huan's own formidable strength, are sufficient for prolonged aerial combat, nearly comparable to true flight.
The female magician was momentarily stunned, and so was Zhou Huan. He was certain that Xia Ling did not possess any spiritual treasures.
The spear struck directly against the magical shield, which appeared to be incredibly sturdy, but in an instant, numerous cracks appeared, and then it shattered with a sound.
Teacher, this is all thanks to your mirror. If it weren't for that mirror, I would never have been able to reach the pinnacle of transformation so quickly
Indeed, there are many secrets. The energy within her is truly peculiar, as it has temporarily allowed her to completely enter the Transformation Realm. Moreover, this ability to fly seems to be a mysterious auxiliary formation
This ... ... is truly unfair; if it were not for my body and spiritual power comparable to the Nirvana realm, I would really have no way to deal with such a flying magician without using any celestial techniques.
It was not until the referee announced Zhou Huan's victory that the magician realized he had lost in an instant.
It turns out to be a transformation mage, and she is clearly stronger than I am as an opponent. This is a bit troublesome. However, the old man Feng should have provided her with a way to cope, right?
Oh? Then I will let you make a move; you can attack first. After your move, I will be the one to strike.
