Chapter 198 - Curtain call
Chapter 198: Curtain call
“Donghui!” Bing Tianliang bellowed, but it was too late.
It was also at this moment that there was a loud cry from afar. Bing Tianliang had also realized something when his expression changed drastically as he flipped over, turning into a glaring purple lightning and rushed over.
But what he faced was a huge, red glow sweeping past his body, and it was the points.
A silvery-white light flickered, and Liu Feng grinned as he looked at Bing Tianliang coming head on. He spread his arms toward him and did an action that said “What can you do about me?” At that time, there were many wounds on his body. He was bleeding, but there was still a smile on his face.
Sparks flew and Liu Feng’s body was destroyed in the plasma, but he had completed what he had to do.
While Dong Qianqiu was going all out, he had already chased after that Soul Master with two Soul Rings as quickly as he could under the cover of the ice fog. He did not hesitate to be hit by the other party, exchanging blows and killing the other party before the golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass’ enhancement ended and giving the huge amount of experience points to his own team.
It was worth dying!
“Bastard!” Yu Tian was so mad that his eyes reddened. He never expected that even when they had an advantage, the other party still managed to kill two of their people. That girl seemed to have died after the outburst. However, the other party had already killed one entire team. But even if they killed all of them in the end and only got half the experience, it would still be enough for them to pass the qualifier.
The points that Ling Tian Academy had accumulated were mostly plundered away by them, but even just half of the accumulated points was still quite impressive.
Yu Tian raised his Mo Sword and charged directly towards Lan Xuanyu. He only had one wish, and it was to sever this chap into two. At this point, he could obviously tell that this genius was the commander of this Heaven Luo Academy team.
Lan Xuanyu looked at him, and a smile spread across his face. Although it was danger after danger, he finally achieved his goal. It also seemed to be better than what he initially planned. Dong Qianqiu’s strength made up for the shortcoming in his plan.
The Mo Sword fell, and he obviously couldn’t dodge from it, but he raised his right hand all of a sudden, used the ring around his thumb, and pointed it directly at the tip of the sword. He wanted to try to see if he could summon that Double Crescent Halberd again.””
However, Yu Tian did not repeat the same mistake. The Mo Sword drew an arc in midair and avoided his palm, going through his chest directly.
“Pfff” and there was bloodshed. The Mo Sword had completely gone through Lan Xuanyu’s chest.
Yu Tian immediately felt carefree and unrestrained. He finally killed this guy! He was very confident that the other party’s heart had ruptured from this stab.
However, Lan Xuanyu’s eyes suddenly became extremely bright. With his ruptured heart, he placed both hands together and did his final move.
A multi-colored light burst forth along with the white light. Glaring radiance filled the air; it engulfed himself, and it also engulfed the Mo Sword and Yu Tian who had a satisfied grin on his face.
“Boom——”
The multi-colored light exploded. Bing Tianliang had just turned around at this moment and saw that the multi-colored light had engulfed both of them.
It was also at that last moment that the dying Gold Silk Ape, which had fallen next to Lan Xuanyu previously, suddenly got into that multi-colored light and disappeared without a trace.
The light lasted for a few seconds before it was gone.
Lan Xuanyu disappeared; so did Yu Tian.
Almost all of the lives on the battlefield were gone. There was only Bing Tianliang left — alone.
Bing Tianliang stood there in a daze. At this moment, there was only one thought in his head: How did this happen? How did this happen?
He just couldn’t believe everything he had gone through.
Nine people — they had a total of nine people. Three teams — each team wasn’t weak at all. With these three teams, just how many of them had three Soul Rings and above?
However, the other party only had a team; and even if they added Niu Yiwei’s team, it was only two teams!
But in the end, they exterminated all of them, and he was the only one left all alone. The other party took almost all the points, including Niu Yiwei’s team. They were probably left with only half of the points…
Wait a minute!
Bing Tianliang’s pupils constricted because he realized that there weren’t any points that went into him when Lan Xuanyu was defeated in the qualifier.
He went blank. What happened? He suddenly recalled the smile on Liu Feng’s face just now — that was definitely not an expression that said ‘Let’s perish together.’ What’s going on? What exactly is happening?
Bing Tianliang’s mind was moving quickly; he recalled everything that happened previously. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a grave mistake. It seemed like after he injured that chap severely, there was one more person who appeared: a fatty. But he appeared for a very short while then disappeared. After that, Dong Qianqiu appeared. As he was fighting the Gold Silk Ape, he didn’t pay too much attention to what was happening at this side. He already thought that Lan Xuanyu wasn’t a threat at that time, and he only focused on the Double Crescent Halberd.
Yes, there was still one person, and it was that fatty — that fatty was in the same team as him. What about that girl just now and that boy who used a long spear? Weren’t they in the same team as him, too?
“AH——” Bing Tianliang howled indignantly, and bolts of lightning surged out of his body. They were close to being released outward crazily. The tall trees around were blasted, but where was he going to look for Qian Lei now?
Far away, Qian Lei squatted among the bushes and used his Spiritual Power to conceal his presence.
Just then, a blazing heat surged over and lasted for an entire half a minute. How many points is this? Xuanyu, Frenzie, just how many points have you guys taken away, huh! Passing the qualifier wouldn’t be a problem, huh. Hahaha, wahahaha!
Qian Lei, who was peeping at Bing Tianliang through the gaps among the trees, obviously couldn’t feel the pain in his heart.
…
The simulator opened up slowly; the surrounding nutrients faded, but Lan Xuanyu stayed inside for half a minute before he slowly crawled out of the simulator.
It wasn’t that he didn’t have energy to get out of the simulator, but he wanted to get a good feel of his physical state. His biggest worry was that his Soul Power would drop from rank 20 to rank 19 after he used his Martial Soul Fusion technique.
However, just like what Nana had told him before, after he reached rank 20, his cultivation wouldn’t fall to rank 19 even after using the Martial Soul Fusion technique. However, he could feel that he had expended quite a lot of the power of the gold-and-silver vortex bloodline so much that even the simulator wasn’t able to fully restore it.
Lan Xuanyu was a little helpless. He initially thought that he could find a loophole in the Martial Soul Fusion technique and would be able to use it without restraint when he was rank 20. But it seemed like that wasn’t the case! He still couldn’t use it anyway he wanted, otherwise, it would be more troublesome if he over consumed the source of his bloodline.
Thankfully, he could feel that after using it another time, that colorful dot in the core of his gold-and-silver vortex seemed to have become slightly clearer.
He also reflected on himself that actually, he didn’t have to use the Martial Soul Fusion technique at the last moment because there wasn’t really a reason to kill Yu Tian. As long as Bing Tianliang didn’t die, there wouldn’t be extra points. That kill was simply to make himself feel good.
Lan Xuanyu was a young man, after all. With that sort of situation, he couldn’t contain the fire in his heart. After being severely injured by Bing Tianliang, he was feeling resentful at first, but he finally released it at the last moment. Lan Xuanyu could completely imagine how Bing Tianliang felt when he realized that the points didn’t go to him when Lan Xuanyu left the qualifier.
