Chapter 763– Because I Like You
Qiangu Yourou glared at Xi Chenluo in annoyance and said, “If you have the time to think about that, why don’t you think about how to defeat them? If we can turn the tables, we will have a chance.”
“En, if the opportunity really falls on us, I’ll give it to you can go to Shrek Academy,” Xi Chenluo said indifferently.
“En?” Qiangu Yourou was stunned. “Why?”
“Because I like you, alright?” Xi Chenluo turned his head and grinned at her.
Qiangu Yourou was surprised. “Aren’t you afraid that telling me this at such an important time would affect my mood?”
Xi Chenluo laughed and said, “I’m saying it now because this is the right timing ! Firstly, we’re the center of attention right now, and secondly, I don’t think we’ll definitely win! If we lose, it’s useless no matter how well I sell myself. If there is no chance, how could I move you?”
The corners of Qiangu Yourou’s lips twitched. “Do you think I’ll be moved now?”
Xi Chenluo shrugged and said, “I don’t know, but I have to give it a try. Also, there’s another benefit to confessing to you now—I feel that you’re a kind person, at least you won’t reject me before the end of the competition. This way, I can still look forward to it for a while, and with this expectation, I believe that the battle power I can unleash will definitely be stronger.”
Qiangu Yourou took a deep breath. “Shut up and get ready for battle.”
Both parties stood still.
Xi Chenluo was tall while Qiangu Yourou was slender and tall. Compared to them, Tang Yuge and Yuanen Huihui looked like children.
Lin Mohua looked at both parties and then shouted, “Begin!”
This match was the competition point for Shrek Academy and the last chance for the Federation’s Central Academy.
The moment Lin Mohua announced the start, both parties released their Martial Souls.
Xi Chenluo and Qiangu Yourou both had three purple and four black soul rings. Their soul rings rose from beneath their feet at the same time.
Xi Chenluo’s body swelled, and he was over three and a half meters tall. Dark gold hair appeared all over his body, and his palms became extremely thick. His dark gold claws shot out aggressively.
The Duskgold Dreadclaw Bear was a top-class assault-type Martial Soul, the king of bears.
Among the ten Great Beasts, there was a Bear Lord that was a Duskgold Dreadclaw Bear.
On the other hand, Qiangu Yourou had a 12-feet-long staff in her hand. It was the Coiling Dragon Staff passed down from the ancestors of the Qiangu Clan.
In ancient times, when the Qiangu Clan was at its peak, they were the successors of the Spirit Pagoda lineage. Later on, they fell from grace and one of their bloodlines was lost to the outside world before she was born. The Coiling Dragon Staff was undoubtedly one of the extremely powerful Martial Soul Tools.
Qiangu Yourou tapped the ground lightly with the tip of her toes and leaped up. She landed on Xi Chenluo’s shoulder and pointed her staff forward. Her aura increased exponentially.
On the other side, Yuanen Huihui and Tang Yuge released their Martial Souls.
Six soul rings slowly rose from beneath Yuanen Huihui’s feet. Six soul rings, two purple and four black, emitted a strange light. A longbow landed in his hand. It was his Purple Star Spirit Bow.
Seven soul rings rose from beneath Tang Yuge’s feet as a faint five-colored light surrounded her body. The scales on her skin protruded out as well and emitted a faint five-colored light.
When the audience saw this, they couldn’t help but gasp.
Six-ring Soul Emperor, seven-ring Soul Sage?
If it was any other time, they wouldn’t be so surprised. After all, there were two Soul Sages on their side and they had an advantage in terms of cultivation.
However, Shrek Academy’s previous performance was simply too shocking. A four-ring Soul Ancestor and two five-ring Soul Kings had defeated two seven-ring Soul Sages and an eight-ring Soul Douluo. At this moment, there were actually six-ring and seven-ring soul masters. Just how strong were they?
Lin Mohua’s expression froze. Not only did the entire school think that way, even he had the same thought.
Could this be Shrek Academy’s strongest combat power? Or were their abilities relatively ordinary?
Xi Chenluo gave a loud shout and raised both his arms abruptly. Qiangu Yourou and he cooperated well and bent his legs slightly as his body bounced up. Xi Chenluo’s hands pushed against her feet and in the next moment, Qiangu Yourou shot out like a cannonball straight for Yuanen Huihui and Tang Yuge.
They also saw their opponents’ soul rings, but at this moment, they only had a strong desire to fight.
In Qiangu Yourou’s eyes, there was an intense fighting spirit that seemed to be burning. The Coiling Dragon Staff in her hand grew longer as she stood in the air and swung the Coiling Dragon Staff, splitting the heaven and earth!
Her imposing manner was majestic, as if she really wanted to split the heaven and earth apart, and a terrifying aura erupted.
Tang Yuge tapped the ground lightly with the tip of her toes and charged forward. The five-colored light on her body flowed and she waved her right hand, sending a five-colored light towards her opponent.
The two of them charged together almost instantly and everyone held their breaths as they watched.
Everyone knew that once one’s cultivation reached a certain level, the victory was often decided during the first clashes.
There was no rumbling sound. In front of the Coiling Dragon Staff’s powerful attack, there was no rumbling sound at all.
Tang Yuge grabbed the front end of the Coiling Dragon Staff while Qiangu Yourou felt as if her full-power attack had hit nothing but air. It was extremely uncomfortable.
In the next moment, Tang Yuge transformed into a five-colored stream of light and disappeared. Qiangu Yourou only saw the sixth soul ring on her body flash.
Following that, the Coiling Dragon Staff that was connected to Qiangu Yourou’s aura suddenly changed. She could clearly feel a strange aura surging into her body.
What is this?
Qiangu Yourou was startled. She did not hesitate at all and released the Coiling Dragon Staff in her hand. At the same time, her Two-Word Battle Armor drilled out of her body. The wings on her back flapped and she retreated.
Yuanen Huihui’s eyes lit up as he stood on the ground. The Purple Star Spirit Bow in his hand changed rapidly and the purple longbow turned into a jade green longbow in an instant. The Coiling Dragon Staff that Qiangu Yourou had given up suddenly reversed and landed on his longbow.
Yuanen Huihui nocked the arrow and released the bowstring.
The Coiling Dragon Staff was like a bolt of lightning as it chased after Qiangu Yourou at an even faster speed.
The audience was dumbfounded. Even Lin Mohua was shocked. There was such a thing?
At this moment, Xi Chenluo, who pushed Qiangu Yourou out, had already caught up with her in large strides. He extended his right hand and his arm grew longer instantly. He opened his sharp claws and grabbed the wings on Qiangu Yourou’s back, pulling her behind him. At the same time, his left hand struck out violently towards the Coiling Dragon Staff that was flying over.
Xi Chenluo’s strength was extremely strong, but the instant he was struck by the Coiling Dragon Staff, all the hairs on his left arm stood up and his Two-Word Battle Armor was activated. Even so, he was still blown away by the attack. What was even more terrifying was that the Two-Word Battle Armor on his left arm had turned into five colors in an instant and those five colors were spreading all over his body.
Qiangu Yourou retracted the Coiling Dragon Staff. However, right at this moment, a gigantic lightning bolt arrived before her.
In her panic, Qiangu Yourou swung her rod and struck the thunderbolt. Following that, her entire body was enshrouded in lightning and she stopped in her tracks.
In the distance, the Elven King Bow in Yuanen Huihui’s hand kept opening and closing as arrows were shot toward Qiangu Yourou. She had no time to care and could only swing the Coiling Dragon Staff with all her might to block them.
