Chapter 300 – China VS Italy (End of the Arena)
Bai Xuan"s sacrifice at the crucial moment combined with Xie Shurong"s short-term extreme outbreak actually killed the two black magicians of Italy.
The sudden change stunned the Italian team. Captain Alberto directly stood up from his seat with a shocked expression. He obviously hadn"t expected the Chinese team"s healer to come up with such a trick!
The domestic audience through the computer screen couldn"t regain their spirits for a while. Even Li Cangyu was a bit surprised before he quickly smiled and praised, "I knew Xiao Bai would be able to think of a way."
There was pride in his words. Bai Xuan was his old partner for many years and his awareness was absolutely first-cla.s.s.
Liu Xiang"s tone was also full of admiration. "Bai Xuan"s understanding of a healer is truly not comparable to ordinary people. I have never tried such a desperate play."
The female players of Red Fox didn"t have such explosive power. Xie Shurong was too powerful. Even if Liu Xiang used Redemption and sacrificed herself to increase her teammate"s attack power for 10 seconds, her teammate might not be able to successfully kill two people. Only explosive players like Li Cangyu and Xie Shurong could perfectly realize Bai Xuan"s ideals.
Bai Xuan was truly a very good healer but if Xie Shurong"s attack power wasn"t strong enough then the Chinese team couldn"t complete the reversal. The combination of Shu Bai had the same spirit and complemented each other. No one else could show such power. The fact that Li Cangyu joined Shu Bai together as partners was enough to show his vision and strategy.
Liu Xiang might be a captain but at this moment, she felt that she was too far away compared to a captain like Li Cangyu. Among the current captains of the Chinese Miracle League, it was probably only Ling Xuefeng who could really compete with Li Cangyu?
Liu Xiang thought this and couldn"t help looking over at Ling Xuefeng. This man always had a cold expression on his face and he had called Zhuo Hang to his side, obviously prepared to go out for the guard stage.

In the commentators" room, Kou Hongyi saw the scene of Shu Bai hugging and he couldn"t help praising, "Shu Bai is worthy of being the Canglan team"s ace combination! In the beginning, Su Yu ate a loss due to the network failure. After Xie Shurong appeared, he killed the archer, white magician and two black magicians in turn. He killed four people and found face for his two senior brothers!"
Yu Bing added, "Ah Shu still has the effect of double attack power but the Italian guard combination can drag out those seconds. Ah Shu doesn"t have much blue left."
“However, his style is quick. In many cases, he doesn"t need blue!" Kou Hongyi stated. "With his personality, he will definitely try to consume the other side and lay out a bigger advantage for his teammates playing next."
Yu Bing nodded in agreement. "Bai Xuan filled Ah Shu"s blood before his sacrifice with this intention. He wanted Ah Shu to continue to consume the opponent."
In the soundproof room, Bai Xuan gently pushed Ah Shu away and smiled. "Continue the game."
Xie Shurong stared at him seriously. "Rest a.s.sured, I won"t disappoint you."
This sentence seemed casual but Bai Xuan saw his serious eyes and was suddenly moved. He couldn"t help reaching out to pat Xie Shurong"s hand. "Come on, I believe in you."
"I believe in you!"
These simple four words were undoubtedly a great encouragement to Xie Shurong.
He shook Bai Xuan"s hand and then turned to sit down, placing his hands on the keyboard again and staring brightly at the computer screen.
As Kou Hongyi and Yu Bing stated, he used Breaking Bone Sword, Devouring Soul Sword and Storm Sword to kill the two black magicians of Italy. At this time, his blue was almost empty. However, his greatest advantage was that he could still cause considerable damage using the swordsman"s general attack, even if he had no blue.
In fact, Xie Shurong was a very flexible player. His style wasn"t sharp but not radical. Once he started chasing the enemy, he was simply a sword that couldn"t be avoided. This was why Bai Xuan particularly hated him.
Now watching him chase the enemy as a teammate, Bai Xuan thought that this guy was quite handsome!
The Italian team soon sent their guard combination, an archer and berserker. It was a typical melee and ranged combination. The berserker was responsible for protection and penetration while the archer attacked from a distance. The berserker"s defense was strong and the archer"s attack power was strong so this combination was very strong in the arena.
Xie Shurong couldn"t win against the two enemies. He only needed to consume the opponent as much as possible to lay out the advantage for the next combination playing.
Xie Shurong understood this point and fully exerted the characteristics of a c.o.c.kroach. He repeatedly moved around the fountains in the central square, flexible avoiding the enemy"s attack.
Once the cooldown for his rushing skill was over, he immediately moved towards the berserker and unleashed a swordsman"s combo at a dazzling speed.
The number of combos on the big screen quickly increased and damage rose by five times. Even a thick-skinned berserker lost 15% blood from this combo.
Daring to fight head on with the berserker, Ah Shu was truly fierce!
The domestic audience members were desperately praising him. [Ah Shu is still lacking a waist pendant!] [Ah Shu, teach me to use the combo!] [This is the youngest brother of Captain Su. He might not be as domineering as his older brother but he is a pure man!] [Ah Shu, good power! As a Flying Feathers fan, I won"t blacken you later!]
Su Guangmo saw this scene and couldn"t help smiling. "Our younger brother grew up!"
Yu Pingsheng nodded. "Yes."
Su Guangmo spoke emotionally, "He used to bicker with me every day. He was quick to point to me and scold me. His voice was so loud that it seemed like he would raise the roof. Now he isn"t in the Flying Feathers and there is no one who dares to quarrel with me. I suddenly feel a bit lonely."
Yu Pingsheng thought of the days when Su Guangmo and Xie Shurong, the two temperamental teenagers argued with each other constantly and he had a headache. Was it good for a scene like that to be reproduced? It would be difficult for him as someone in the middle.
Su Guangmo was silent for a moment before he suddenly held Yu Pingsheng"s hand. "It"s okay, I have you."
Yu Pingsheng looked over doubtfully but only saw the handsome face of his smiling brother.
The feeling of his hand being held was strange. Yu Pingsheng wanted to pull away but he was gently held. Yu Pingsheng no longer struggled and quietly let him hold it.
Perhaps his brother felt somewhat emotional after recalling past events?
The three brothers of Flying Feathers and their master "Sword G.o.d" Song Yang might bicker all the time but those were precious memories of their youth.
At this time, the venue filled with a burst of applause. Yu Pingsheng looked up and saw Xie Shurong unleash a beautiful combo, directly decreasing the berserker to half blood!
The berserker and archer of Italy cooperated to finally kill Xie Shurong but Xie Shurong completed his task. Not only did he move back the Chinese team"s disadvantage, he also completely reversed the situation. This allowed his teammates enter the guard stage with a half blood advantage.
Xie Shurong returned with Bai Xuan and the rest of the national team warmly applauded them.
Su Guangmo stood up and patted his younger brother"s shoulder. "Good, you have fought well for your brothers! You should go back to Kunming for a few days and I will take you to see Master."
Xie Shurong smiled. "Good! I heard that Master opened a grilled fish shop?"
Li Cangyu heard the keyword "fish" and immediately turned around with bright eyes. "Grilled fish shop? Where is it?"
Su Guangmo, "…"
Xie Shurong, "…"
Could Cat G.o.d be like this? The calm of the national team"s captain was completely abandoned after hearing "fish"?
Bai Xuan was helpless. "Can you discuss the issue of grilled fish later? The arena isn"t over yet!"
Li Cangyu was calm. "Xuefeng will definitely win. What is there to worry about?"
Everyone, “…”
His trust in Ling Xuefeng was simple and didn"t require a reason.
However, Cat G.o.d had a point. Ling Xuefeng was the guard. Was there still any suspense in the arena?
Everyone calmed down once they realized this and continued to discuss the issue of the grilled fish store.
Bai Xuan asked curiously, "Where is your Master"s shop?"
Su Guangmo told him, "After we return to China, we can go visit. My master"s shop is called "Sword G.o.d Grilled Fish Shop.""
Li Cangyu touched his nose. "I didn"t expect Song Yang to be so narcissistic…"
Of the Five G.o.ds of Miracle, the first captain of Ghost Spirits, Mo Quan had already disappeared. Tan s.h.i.tian"s master Xu Luo settled overseas. Song Yang, the master of Flying Feathers three brothers had opened a grilled fish shop. Only Li Cangyu and Ling Xuefeng were still left in the league. Li Cangyu felt very amiable when thinking about this old friend.
Sword G.o.d Grilled Fish Shop, how did he come up with this?
However, this provided Li Cangyu with new ideas. Perhaps he could open several fish stores after he retired. Pickled fish, sweet and sour fish, steamed ba.s.s…
He didn"t want to drool so let"s watch the game first.
Li Cangyu retracted his thoughts and looked back, only to see Ling Xuefeng standing next to him with no expression. Li Cangyu couldn"t help feeling surprised. "You haven"t gone yet?"
Ling Xuefeng told him, "I"m waiting for you. Do you have anything to explain?"
Li Cangyu smiled and hugged him. "The only thing I have to say is that I am waiting for you to win this game."
"No problem." Ling Xuefeng nodded and left with Zhuo Hang.
Yan Ruiwen wanted to see the black crows of a demon summoner in front of his eyes. He wanted Cover the Sky to blind him!
Since joining the national team and fighting with Cat G.o.d, Captain Ling wasn"t right. Yan Ruiwen thought about gossip every day and painfully endured it.
Li Cangyu saw Yan Ruiwen"s twisted face and couldn"t help feeling worried. "Vice-Captain Yan, are you uncomfortable?"
Yan Ruiwen immediately smiled. "Ah, no! I just suddenly thought of a tactical problem and was worrying over it."
He successfully fooled Cat G.o.d and Yan Ruiwen focused his attention on the big screen.
On the big screen, the Chinese"s players IDs finally appeared. LXF and Navigator!
LXF was undoubtedly Ling Xuefeng"s initials while Navigator matched Zhuo Hang"s Chinese ID.
The combination made the always calm Yu Bing look surprised. "Captain Ling and Zhuo Hang are together?"
“This combination is really novel!” Kou Hongyi exclaimed. "If Captain Ling wants to pair up with a hunter, he could"ve taken Captain Jiang. It is estimated that he is trying to give more opportunities to the newcomer!"
Regardless of Ling Xuefeng"s thinking, his combination with Zhuo Hang was a foregone conclusion.
On the VIP stands, Li Xiaojiang quietly formed fists and cheered on his partner in his heart. "Zhuo Hang, you must keep up with Captain Ling"s rhythm!"

Chapter 303 – China VS Italy (Ling Zhuo Combination)
Ling Xuefeng was undoubtedly the top G.o.d in the China Miracle League and don"t think it would be easy to partner with a great G.o.d. During the two days of training, Zhuo Hang had felt suffocated. Ling Xuefeng"s quickly, decisively and violence wasn"t something that an average person could keep up with. In many cases, Zhuo Hang couldn"t respond to what happened and just lay down.
This feeling wasn"t good. He always felt that he was dragging Ling Xuefeng down.
Fortunately, Ling Xuefeng took care of Zhuo Hang by slowing down his rhythm. After two days of intensive training, Zhuo Hang finally became familiar with Captain Ling"s style.
Once the two of them appeared on the map, the Italian berserker only had half blood left while the archer was full of blood. However, he had consumed many skills in order to kill Xie Shurong.
This was a death map. As long as they entered a fountain, they would be corroded by the blood and die.
A demon summoner had two signature skills. One was the banshee"s Charm that pulled one person and the group pull Witch Demon"s Curse. Ling Xuefeng"s use of these two skills was superb. The two Italians had long heard the name Ling Xuefeng and were naturally very careful when confronting him.
The two of them reached a tacit agreement: Kill Zhuo Hang first.
After all, Zhuo Hang was a newcomer with no fame. If they killed Zhuo Hang, they would have a chance to win against Ling Xuefeng since it would be 2v1.
The berserker approached to suppress Zhuo Hang. He used Mountain Chop to push Zhuo Hang into a corner while the archer fired a cold arrow from a distance. Zhuo Hang was attacked by the two people and felt great pressure.
A hunter"s defense wasn"t high but fortunately, their skills didn"t have a casting time. Zhuo Hang withstood the pressure and quickly moved using Flying Feather Steps to set four traps around the berserker. Then he escaped the berserker"s attack range at an extremely fast speed.
The berserker was set in place and Ling Xuefeng immediately summoned four skeleton infantry to surround him.
There was a bang as the skeleton infantry exploded and forced the berserker down to 30% residual blood. At the same time, Zhuo Hang exploded his traps and forced the blood down to 15%.
Li Xiaojiang was relieved from where he was watching. He thought that Zhuo Hang wouldn"t be able to keep up with Captain Ling. Now it seemed that he had been thinking too small. This guy"s reaction in the arena was really fast.
It seemed that Li Xiaojiang"s evaluation was confirmed. Zhuo Hang exploded the traps and turned using Flying Feather Steps towards the archer.
Zhuo Hang played very hard today. He might"ve been initially suppressed by the two opponents and turned into a half blood state in an instant but he wasn"t afraid at all. He used Flying Feather Steps to move as fast as the wind.
The Italian archer saw that the hunter was coming to kill him and instantly escaped with Flying Feather Steps.
On the other side, Ling Xuefeng saw that the berserker"s blood was down to 15% after exploding the skeleton infantry and didn"t hesitate to try and kill the berserker.
However, the berserker"s defense was very high. He raised the axe and used blocking skills to prevent Ling Xuefeng"s attack. Then he went back to cooperate with his teammate to kill Zhuo Hang.
There are five large death fountains in the central square. The audience found that Zhuo Hang was chasing the archer and the berserker was chasing Zhuo Hang. Gradually, the three people approached the narrow boundary between two fountains. Ling Xuefeng remained calm from beginning to end and didn"t chase. Instead, he diverted behind another fountain.
The two people of the Italian team thought that Ling Xuefeng couldn"t come to rescue straight away and was happy. They immediately surrounded Zhuo Hang and used skills.
—Cut Through Thorns!
—Death Arrow Rain!
The two people"s big moves fell and the screen shone brightly. The weak Zhuo Hang was. .h.i.t by these two skills and fell to 10% residual blood. His blood gauge started to flash red in warning.
He was about to be killed only for Ling Xuefeng to suddenly emerge from behind a fountain. The Italian archer sensed something was wrong and turned to run with Flying Feather Steps.
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to escape.
Zhuo Hang had been pa.s.sively beaten up. At this moment, he suddenly reversed his hand and used a precise Stop Trap to fix the escaping archer in place.
Ling Xuefeng quickly summoned the banshee, placed the banshee in the fountain and then used a precise Charm to pull the archer!
The audience saw that both the banshee and archer were corroded by the blood!
The effect of the Miracle death map didn"t exceed one second and the summoner"s pets were naturally affected by the map. Ling Xuefeng"s banshee would definitely have no bones left after standing in the pool for one second.
However, Ling Xuefeng"s quick operation scared people.
The timing and positioning when summoning the banshee were quite accurate. After summoning, he instantly used the Charm skill and pulled the Italian archer, not taking longer than one second. The audience couldn"t see what happened and only understood after the slow-motion replay.
Everything thought there was a flower in front of them. The banshee appeared, almost instantly pulled the archer into the fountain and then met the same end as the archer…
Captain Ling"s style was so simple and strong. He used one second to kill the opponent and was too lazy to waste time.
The domestic audience couldn"t help feeling sympathetic and lit a row of candles for the Italian archer.
***
In the commentators" room, Kou Hongyi laughed. "Captain Ling is really different! If you look carefully, you will find that Xiao Zhuo was very smart. He knew that the other two wanted to kill him and deliberately led them to a dead corner of the map."
Yu Bing nodded and praised, "The cooperation between Zhuo Hang and Captain Ling is very clever. Once he saw Captain Ling emerge, he immediately stopped the opponent with a trap and allowed Captain Ling to accurately pull the opponent. This type of awareness is really great!"
Li Xiaojiang saw the scene and couldn"t help stuttering, "He, he is progressing really quickly!"
Gu Siming exclaimed, "Yes! He is our Canglan teammate!"
After killing the Italian archer in one second, Ling Xuefeng"s expression was still calm and didn"t change. His fingers quickly tapped the keyboard and he summoned four skeleton infantry.
The Italian berserker had only 15% blood left and there was no possibility of him winning. He wanted to go back and kill Zhuo Hang to get at least one person, but Ling Xuefeng wouldn"t give him a chance.
The man"s eyes were cold as his slender fingers pressed on the keyboard. On the big screen, the four skeletons moved at a very fast speed towards the berserker and exploded. There was black smoke and the berserker was directly blown up!
—Winner!
Victory belonged to the Chinese team!
Ling Xuefeng stood up from his seat while Zhuo Hang jumped up excitedly. "Captain Ling played really well!"
“You weren"t bad." Ling Xuefeng patted the teenager"s shoulder as encouragement. Then he lowered his voice and said, "The future Canglan will be handed over to the youngsters. Don"t let him down."
The sentence made Zhuo Hang freeze up but he quickly reacted. The "he" that Ling Xuefeng mentioned was naturally Cat G.o.d.
Then today Captain Ling partnered up with him to teach him something? He was helping Cat G.o.d train the newcomers?
Zhuo Hang felt a bit complicated at this time.
He didn"t think that the relationship between Captain Ling and Cat G.o.d was good enough for Captain Ling to care about the newcomers.
After a moment of silence, Zhuo Hang looked up and met Ling Xuefeng"s eyes seriously. "Don"t worry Captain Ling. We will work harder in the future and definitely live up to Cat G.o.d"s training!"
Ling Xuefeng nodded with relief. "That"s good."
The two people returned to the rest area. Li Cangyu looked at Ling Xuefeng and said, "I knew there would be no problems. You really won this game."
Ling Xuefeng"s serious face showed a rare smile. "Well, there are still two games left."
Li Cangyu heard this and gathered his teammates around him. "Everyone should refuel. There are two games left and we can achieve the victory record!"
These words immediately increased the spirits of the national team.
The commander of the next game, Chu Yan stood up and gathered the players involved in the economic war. He smiled confidently and declared, "Let"s show them China"s illusion flow!"
