Chapter 548: Inter-academy Tournament (38)
If Shen Yanxiao had used even a single insidious curse, it would leave a stain in everyone’s mind. However, she did not use any deceptive attacks and fought the battle with honor. So, no one could find a single flaw or fault with her victory!
There was a subtle change in everyone’s mind when they saw how Shen Yanxiao won the match fairly.
Perhaps, Warlocks were not as evil as what the rumors had conveyed; the curses they used were not entirely despicable.
With a seed planted in their hearts, it would germinate and grow into a large tree one day.
Yang Xi struggled to sit up. Everything had happened in only 30 seconds, but he could feel the might of the curses on him. He had lost control of his body and thrown from the stage. That was the terrifying aspect of Warlocks.
“Can you stand up?” Shen Yanxiao crouched at the edge of the stage with a friendly smile on her face.
According to the tournament rules, as long as a party conceded defeat or were unable to move after an attack or chose to leave the stage, it would result in a loss.
Yang Xi smiled bitterly as he looked at the little brat whose att.i.tude had changed faster than the flip of a book. He said, “I’m not that weak. However, I’ve not enjoyed today’s fight enough; let’s have another duel soon.” He did not go easy on her in the match. He knew the Warlocks’ position in the Brilliance Continent, and if he showed leniency in his attacks, then everyone would have doubts about Shen Yanxiao’s abilities.
That was not something he wanted to see, and so, he could do his best and hoped that Shen Yanxiao would use her real abilities to win the match. The spectators would not be convinced otherwise.
“You’re addicted to fighting?” Shen Yanxiao quirked her eyebrows and leaped down from the stage. She reached out to Yang Xi and pulled him to his feet.
Yang Xi chuckled as he looked at the referee who was still stunned. He asked, “Can you announce the result of the match now?”
The referee had blanked out momentarily and only snapped back to his senses just a moment ago. He looked at Shen Yanxiao with complicated emotions and announced the results.
“Saint Laurent Academy’s Warlock Division, Shen Yanxiao wins!”
Shen Yanxiao’s eyes sparkled with joy.
Yang Xi would not have the chance to respond if Shen Yanxiao wanted to do real damage to him. She was a thief G.o.ddess and coupled with some Shading curses, she could have ended the fight before the ten-minute mark.
However, she was not willing to do so.
She wanted everyone to know what Warlocks were not only skilled at sneak attacks. They could easily defeat their opponents with proper means and various combination curses and spells.
Shen Yanxiao had already decided not to use her other skills in the tournament. Whether it was her thieving abilities or her archery skills, she would not use them!
She wanted to use her abilities as Warlock to win the champions.h.i.+p so that no one could say a single bad thing about her!
The referee’s announcement shocked the spectators into silence again. The word Warlock must have been similar to a pot of cold water that had been poured over them.
No matter her strength, that little girl was a Warlock!
Her victory would not be able to quickly reverse the trauma that Warlocks had inflicted on those in the Brilliance Continent in the olden days.
