Chapter 316: Team Intra-Compet.i.tion Ends, the Frenzied Heavenly King Lie Kong
“Roar—!!”
A deafening roar suddenly exploded.
A huge white dragon appeared from the spatial ripples. It spread its wings and flew straight to the sky above the venue. It circled around and looked down with cold eyes.
Wind-element sprite, Sky Dragon!
The overlord of the sky!
It was a rare sprite that could reach the level of a pseudo monarch.
Naturally, the Sky Dragon that appeared on the field was not the main battle sprite of the Heavenly King Lie Kong.
It was just a Sky Dragon that had not been nurtured for long and was at the middle and upper stages of the extraordinary level.
Even though it was a newbie in the Heavenly King Lie Kong team, it still exuded a terrifying aura.
The Sprite Trainers present were all geniuses from various forces. Some of them also had rare sprites that could reach the pseudo monarch level, but compared to the Sky Dragon in front of them, the gap was too big!
Lie Kong had Heavenly King-level experience, his own secret manuals, the nurturing of the fusion domain, and easily obtained high-level and top-notch resources…
The Sky Dragon that was hovering high up in the sky looked down with a domineering aura.
“Are you ready? I won’t be commanding this battle.”
It was reasonable that he chose not to command the Sky Dragon. The pressure on b.u.t.terfly was already very strong.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have any weaker or more suitable sprite.
He could only give the Sky Dragon an order to give b.u.t.terfly Fairy a chance to show her strength.
He returned to his seat.
The barrier appeared.
b.u.t.terfly had already returned to its normal size. Three fist-sized white precious b.a.l.l.s were now spinning around its body.
The b.u.t.terfly’s wings trembled slightly as it floated two to three meters high and looked into the distance at the terrifying Sky Dragon.
The battle began!
There seemed to be a vortex spinning in b.u.t.terfly’s eyes. “Eye of Nightmare” had been improved several times and cultivated to an extremely high level. With just one eye, it could make the enemy completely fall into an illusion.
Even if they looked away, the “Eyes of Nightmare” could still take effect. In the previous match, the Nightmare Tapir was still killed instantly without any suspense.
At this moment…
The Sky Dragon had already closed its eyes. Immediately after, a faint red stream of air appeared on its body and lingered around.
In an instant, its aura became even more majestic and violent. It swept out like a wave, and the entire venue was filled with violent winds.
“A secret technique of the berserker type?”
The Sky Dragon roared, and its aura became more and more vigorous. The disadvantage was that its brain was too excited, and it was difficult for it to calm down. However, this kind of emotion was useful and was essentially a high level of agitation of the mind. It could be used as a s.h.i.+eld to block the invasion of illusions.
Indeed, the Heavenly King would not leave any shortcomings for himself.
If it was a sprite that only knew illusions, at this time, it was already destined to fail.
But…
b.u.t.terfly also didn’t have any shortcomings either.
“Gurgle~”
In its eyes, the huge figure of the Sky Dragon approached rapidly, bringing with it a terrifying airflow that slashed over like a knife.
It was like a BOSS had appeared.
It was time to beat it up.
Bang!
The Sky Dragon’s huge claws slashed down, and circles of air waves spread out, but b.u.t.terfly’s figure was no longer there.
It disappeared.
The giant white dragon was not in a hurry to attack immediately. Its eyes swept across the area, and the airflow kept swirling in the entire arena.
A few seconds later, it suddenly pounced forward.
With a flap of its wings, it stretched out its sharp claws, and a huge claw that carried a violent wind shot out like a bulldozer. It carried great force, and after traveling one to two hundred meters, there was a bang, as if a bubble had burst. Countless illusion b.u.t.terflies flew around, and the huge claw directly smashed into the barrier.
Buzz ~ Buzz!
The light screen trembled and flickered.
Its power was almost the same as the killing sword light when the Sword G.o.d’s countless swords merged into one.
And this was just a casual claw attack from the Sky Dragon.
The huge white claw missed, but the Sky Dragon didn’t care at all. It quickly turned to another direction and slowly raised its claw to swing down again.
Suddenly…
It shook its head and sharply realized that its perception had been deviated.
It was swinging at the wrong location!
Thinking of this, the heart of the dragon in the sky trembled, and the light red airflow on its body became denser. It spread its wings and flew into the sky. The dragon’s mouth opened wide again, inhaling countless airflows before suddenly spitting them out.
Roar!
The dragon roared, and the sound waves substantialized. Circles of white ripples spread out and instantly enveloped the entire venue.
The dancing illusion b.u.t.terflies shattered like bubbles.
Suddenly, b.u.t.terfly appeared in the empty field.
“It can’t hide anymore!”
A Sprite Trainer in the waiting area spoke.
Speed and defense were not b.u.t.terfly’s forte. Once it could not hide and was exposed to the enemy, it would naturally be in danger.
Many people thought so, but in the next moment, their eyes widened.
“Wait!”
A second, third, and fourth b.u.t.terfly Fairy appeared where the white sound wave pa.s.sed.
Each of them had two spiritual force s.h.i.+elds around them to defend against the white sound waves.
The audience was stunned.
Because with their perception, they felt that all four of them were real.
Many people frowned, but the Sky Dragon did not hesitate. It flapped its wings and turned into a white shadow. In an instant, it flew in front of one of the b.u.t.terfly Fairy and slapped down.
Boom!!!
The Psychic s.h.i.+eld shattered like paper, and the sharp claws that were surrounded by endless wind blades tore through the green figure, leaving only a fist-sized treasure ball that emitted a faint light.
The treasure ball was the main body!
Seeing that the ball was about to slip through the gaps between its sharp claws, the Sky Dragon opened its mouth and spat out a white light that enveloped the ball.
Boom~!
However, a sharp-eyed Sprite Trainer realized that the white precious ball had already disappeared.
“Where did it go?”
“Over there!”
Unknowingly, the white ball had already appeared beside one of the b.u.t.terfly Fairy and was floating.
No one noticed the movement trajectory just now.
The Sky Dragon didn’t care and chose to attack directly.
Its wings emitted a strong white light. It aimed at the remaining three b.u.t.terfly Fairy and blasted a fan-shaped shockwave that enveloped most of the venue.
It enveloped the entire sky as well as the ground. Unless it went behind the Sky Dragon, there was no way for it to dodge!
However…
No one noticed that an illusion b.u.t.terfly with an extremely low presence appeared not far behind the Sky Dragon. In the next moment, the illusion b.u.t.terfly disappeared and was replaced by b.u.t.terfly’s figure.
Secret manual — [Shadow s.h.i.+ft]!
Using the special illusion b.u.t.terfly as a basis, b.u.t.terfly switched the location of the illusion b.u.t.terfly with its main body.
In the blink of an eye, b.u.t.terfly dodged the full-screen map cannon.
The incarnation returned to one.
Three treasure b.a.l.l.s hung behind b.u.t.terfly.
The Sky Dragon also used the flow of the wind to discover b.u.t.terfly’s location and turned around abruptly, but…
“Gurgle ~!”
Time was up!
In b.u.t.terfly’s eyes, a vortex spun. The core seemed to reflect the figure of a b.u.t.terfly Fairy holding a spear and stabbing down.
As soon as the Sky Dragon extended its claws, its body trembled.
A piercing pain came from his left wing. Not only did it affect his body, but it also went straight to his soul.
“Roar!!!”
It was in pain, and its left wing turned into light and swept across.
However, it didn’t hit anything. It swept across an empty s.p.a.ce and stirred up the surrounding with its airflow.
Suddenly, there was another wave of pain. The wings spasmed and drooped down as if they could not exert any strength.
It roared again.
In the waiting area, many people were confused by the Sky Dragon’s actions.
“It seems to be injured?”
“What is injuring it?”
However, no matter how they used all sorts of methods to probe and sense, they could not find anything wrong.
Heavenly King Lie Kong frowned.
“An attack from an illusory body?” he guessed. Obviously, the illusory body was attacking the Sky Dragon, and it mainly dealt mental damage, but the Sky Dragon could not attack the illusory body.
It was so weird that Heavenly King Lie Kong sat upright with a solemn look.
The Sky Dragon on the field was on full alert.
Relying on its instinctive reaction, it managed to dodge a few attacks from the illusory body.
It quickly reacted and ignored the illusory body. It attacked the b.u.t.terfly Fairy, who was not hiding.
The wind blew.
The airflow whistled like the roar of a huge beast.
In an instant, countless wind blades slashed through the air, filling the entire arena. The barrier of light trembled incessantly, and everything in sight was ashen white.
A full-screen attack!
Although the entire venue was only a few hundred meters long and wide, not many sprites present could continuously bombard it with high-intensity energy.
If this were the outside world, the Sky Dragon could easily turn a block into ruins.
But…
The Sky Dragon’s all-encompa.s.sing bombardment did not last long.
It was interrupted!
It shuddered, hugged its neck, and roared.
In the distance, in the endless grayish-white, b.u.t.terfly flew two to three meters high. Three fist-sized b.a.l.l.s hung in front of her and formed an inverted triangle. They reflected the light and blocked the endless wind blades.
It blocked for two seconds.
In the third second, Sky Dragon could no longer hold on.
It dragged its injured body and wanted to fly high. In the next moment, countless cherry blossoms appeared in the wind.
Petals danced in the air. It was like a dream, but it contained fatal killing intent.
The invisible and undetectable illusory body seized the opportunity to strike again.
At the same time…
Since the beginning of the battle, the illusion imprints left behind by “Eye of Nightmare”, “Enchantment” characteristics, as well as illusory attacks… all exploded in an instant.
The Sky Dragon, who had gone berserk, still felt as if its brain had been hammered heavily. Its entire body buzzed, and double images appeared in front of its eyes.
The mental power that spread out almost materialized, and black threads that could be seen with the naked eye appeared and dissipated in the air.
In the surroundings, countless petals that were dancing in the air but were not affected by the wind swept out at an even faster speed.
It was like a pink storm.
The petals enveloped the roaring Sky Dragon.
Petals pierced through the Sky Dragon’s body, taking nothing away. However, the others could see that the Sky Dragon’s body was constantly trembling and growling in pain.
It swept up airflow, and countless ultimate moves poured down like a torrent. They smashed onto the barrier of light, the crystal wall, the ground, and shot into the sky…
Rumble~!
The ground trembled and dust rose. The pink illusion storm continued to quietly envelop the Sky Dragon.
After a while…
The Sky Dragon stretched its neck and flapped its wings, as if it wanted to escape into the sky.
But…
Boom~!
Its huge body fell heavily. Its aura did not weaken, but… it did not move.
It fell!
Ten seconds.
Thirty seconds.
The audience was silent.
In terms of power, the entire battle was almost completely dominated by the Sky Dragon. b.u.t.terfly Fairy only kept dodging.
However, after retreating time and time again, it actually KO-ed the Sky Dragon of the Heavenly King Lie Kong?
What did b.u.t.terfly Fairy do?
“An invisible illusory attack.”
“Indescribable attainments in illusions.”
“A dodging technique like a magic show.”
“A cherry blossom storm that was simultaneously real and illusionary”
Conclusion: Sky Dragon A attacked, Sky Dragon missed, Sky Dragon continued to miss, b.u.t.terfly Fairy used a mysterious attack, Sky Dragon fell.
So…
What kind of mysterious attack did b.u.t.terfly Fairy use?
“Phantom Body, Effect Stacking.”
Heavenly King Lie Kong was deep in thought.
Under his calm expression, he felt a little… embarra.s.sed.
“Sky Dragon, Sky Dragon, why are you so stupid?!”
It must be because he did not give the order.
Wait a minute…
It seemed that Su Hao didn’t give the order either?
…
After defeating the Sky Dragon, b.u.t.terfly was also “panting”. It had already “exhausted its energy” and its aura was “much weaker”. It was only a narrow victory.
Its expression was still happy.
It was quite exciting to fight a boss level sprite like Sky Dragon.
It reveled in its success as it shrunk its body and flapped its emerald green wings. It shakily flew back to the throne on Su Hao’s head and laid down. It looked tired as if it had exhausted its last bit of strength.
Su Hao gave b.u.t.terfly a thumbs up.
He jumped down from the Sprite Commandeering platform and returned to the waiting area.
At this moment, among the seventeen people in the waiting area, there were already six people who had been defeated by him.
Among them, the sixth person had lost instantaneously so he might have to fight again.
Soon…
After Sky Dragon was recalled, the team compet.i.tion continued.
Every sprite displayed a unique secret technique. The entire venue was filled with violent energy streams from time to time.
The rumbling continued.
But…
“Just like that, just like that?”
“Compared to that Flaming Spiritcrow, it’s too inferior.”
“It’s the same Lightning Palm. It doesn’t have the power of the Thunder Roaring at all.”
Even though there was still a dull feeling, the battle became more intense with each exchange, and the techniques and killing moves were more detailed.
Heavenly King Liekong nodded in relief.
In an ideal world, Lie Kong should be more attracted to a genius like Su Hao… but why did he find these “ordinary Sprite Trainers” more pleasing to the eye?
The team compet.i.tion lasted until the afternoon.
The remaining time was given to Su Hao and the others to rest and move around freely.
There were many ordinary resources stored in this base. The resources needed for training sprites were completely free.
As for the application for high-level resources, it would have to wait until tomorrow.
At night.
The Heavenly Kings returned to their temporary residences and prepared to write their reports.
This report required a detailed evaluation of Sprite Trainers and their sprites.
The reason why it was so troublesome was not only because of the inheritance battle, but also because the 18 people in the Dragon Country team were a group of geniuses that the Dragon Country would invest a lot of resources to nurture in the future.
More than half of them had the bearing of heavenly kings.
At this moment, in the study room.
Heavenly King Lie Kong sat in front of the computer. He opened the doc.u.ment and started typing. However, after typing a few words, he suddenly… stopped.
It was a very uncomfortable feeling. He wanted to write it, but he did not know where to start.
At this moment…
The main text of the doc.u.ment had yet to be written. There was only one t.i.tle.
b.u.t.terfly Fairy’s Test and Evaluation.
The one who gave b.u.t.terfly Fairy a head-on battle was the Sky Dragon. Naturally, he had to be the one to write the report.
“If I had known better, I wouldn’t have fought that battle.”
Not only did he lose, but he also had to include it in the report.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he was the person-in-charge of the Supernova Cup. No one else in the team could fight, so he could only go as an instructor.
Forget it.
Heavenly King Lie Kong began to recall the details of the battle and the feedback from the Sky Dragon.
“Illusion ability, A+.”
“The first type of secret technique is…”
He thought for a few seconds and skipped it.
“The three treasure b.a.l.l.s are solidified spiritual power. Then, the tactics that Su Hao developed with the treasure b.a.l.l.s are…”
Heavenly King Lie Kong thought for more than ten seconds and decided to skip this portion as well.
“I’ve seen other illusory bodies, but I can’t sense any of them…”
He would skip it for now.
“…”
He would skip it for now.
“…”
He would skip it for now.
Half an hour later, Sky-Splitting Lie Kong looked at the countless empty s.p.a.ces in the doc.u.ment and fell into deep thought.
So…
How the f*ck am I supposed to write this report? (*`皿 ́*)ノ┬─┬ノ┻━┻
