Chapter 110: Chapter no Godspeed Talisman 1
Translator: 549690339 —
The third round of the Magic Duel.
It is finally not Chen Mobai’s turn to compete first.
However, his mood is heavier than when he himself has to fight.
That’S because on the stage, Xu Yuan and Cao Yaling, who are both his classmates, are fighting. Torn between two sides you care for, regardless of who gets eliminated, it would be a loss for the Fifth High School.
“Please.”
After the referee’s announcement to start, Cao Yaling gave a polite bow to Xu Yuan with both hands, and he also returned the courtesy. Then, both of them did not use talismans, and began to duel using only spells.
Xu Yuan cultivates a cultivation technique of dual attributes of earth and fire. Although he hasn’t practiced any powerful spells, he can already convert earth into rock, and rock into earth, and continuously transform between the two states. He can attack and defend at the same time, which is very suitable for a Magic Duel.
Cao Yaling has never disclosed her cultivation technique, but it must be very powerful as well. Chen Mobai can sense her Spirit Eye, which is a useful auxiliary spell in a Magic Duel.
In this round of fight, both sides agreed tacitly not to use talismans.
With one stomp of Xu Yuan’s foot, the rock-made stage began to loosen and turned into mud, which coalesced into a black long sword in his palm.
However, Cao Yaling waved a finger in the blink of an eye when the sword took shape, and a strong gust of wind shot towards Xu Yuan’s earth sword, causing it to warp and disintegrate.
But when the dirt dispersed, it quickly coalesced again under the infusion of Xu Yuan’s spiritual power.
The spiritual light flickered in Cao Yaling’s eyes, she had already seen the follow-up changes, and knew that if she didn’t break Xu Yuan’s rock sword at the beginning, what awaited her would be her own defeat.
Therefore, unlike the last round, she didn’t choose to exhaust her opponent with her powerful spiritual power. Instead, she burst out all her spiritual power in an instant, and her slender, fair-skinned hands crossed to form a triangle pointing at Xu Yuan.
Golden Light Cannon!
The splendid golden glow erupted between Cao Yaling’s fingers, enveloping Xu Yuan s entire body like a divine light from heaven.
Bang!
After a loud noise, dust filled the sky.
Cao Yaling gasped violently, sweat sweating from her forehead. This move was her trump card that she had practiced for this Magic Duel. She thought she could at least save it for the next round.
“Did she win?”
Shi Jingjing looked nervously at her.
“Seems so.”
Chen Mobai frowned. He couldn’t see the situation in the dust, but just before Cao Yaling’s magic spell was launched, he saw Xu Yuan disperse his earth sword. The rock armor he formed only covered half of his body.
Cao Yaling had exhausted all her spiritual power with this move. Even for him, he would have to use his talismans, Water Elemental Shield and even the Cold’ Ice Technique to be able to block it unharmed in a head-on confrontation.
It seemed that Xu Yuan had some reservations, wanting to win impressively but not wanting Cao Yaling to lose too horribly. His hesitation during the casting of the spell made him lose to Cao Yaling, who unexpectedly launched a full-force attack with the “Golden Light Cannon” as soon as the duel started.
Sure enough, when the dust settled, Xu Yuan was coughing violently, covered in dust, kneeling on one knee, a thin stream of blood trickled from his mouth and nose, looking utterly defeated.
“How can you hesitate in a Magic Duel?”
Chen Mobai watched this scene and sighed.
Originally, in the Fifth High School, apart from himself, only Xu Yuan had the potential to advance to the next round. As he was against Cao Yaling who was not good at Magic Duels, everyone thought he was guaranteed to win.
However, in the face of an almost certain victory, he made a very youthful mistake.
He hesitated, and then he was defeated.
Xu Yuan, feeling the numbness in his right leg and the chaos in his body meridians, couldn’t help but smile wryly, surrendering by raising his hand.
“I concede.”
After a bow, Cao Yaling immediately ran over to help him up.
“It’s not enough cultivation on my part. Yuanqing, you mustn’t make the same mistake as I did.”
In the face of his schoolmates who rushed onto the stage, Xu Yuan said this to his best friend Shi Yuanqing then passed out reassuredly.
Chen Mobai clearly saw Shi Yuanqing’s hands clenching tightly, nodding his head resolutely.
The next round would be his turn, and his opponent is also a female.
It’s this stage again.
“How is Yan Bingxuan doing?”
Taking advantage of the break after Xu Yuan and Cao Yaling’s magic duel, Chen Mobai immediately called Mo Simin. Although she had already been eliminated, she stayed at the Cinnabarite Institute, saying she would cheer them on.
Due to conflicting schedules, Chen Mobai asked her to stay with Yan Bingxuan while he watched this match and Mo Simin watched another.
“It’s over, Yan Feng is too strong.”
Mo Simin’s tone was very heavy, Chen Mobai was slightly taken aback, he thought that the duel between Xu Yuan and Cao Yaling that ended so quickly was fast enough, he did not expect the match between Yan Bingxuan and Yan Feng to be so quick as well.
“Did you record the video of the fight?”
“I didn’t expect it to end so quickly, I didn’t get a chance to, but Yan Bingxuan only managed to withstand half a move.”
“Right, comfort her for me, tell her I’ll avenge her.”
“Can’t you comfort her yourself…”
Before Mo Simin could finish, she heard the busy tone, Chen Mobai had hung up the phone, which left her angrily slapping the stone bench beneath her.
Next to her, Yan Bingxuan leaned on her shoulder, pale and weak
“My name is Wu Xue, pleasure to meet you.”
The reason why Chen Mobai hung up the phone was because Shi Yuanqing’s opponent had entered the stage.
The girl named Wu Xue had a graceful figure, beautiful face, and a bewitching charm hidden within her smile.
“Shi Yuanqing.”
After exchanging names, the referee announced the start of the magic duel.
With a “bang”.
Shi Yuanqing’s hands pressed on the rocky surface of the stage, instantly shattering the rock into large granules. He then seemingly pulled out two stone whips from the earth, violently whipping them towards Wu Xue.
“Truly doesn’t know how to cherish a woman.”
Wu Xue’s eyebrows knotted, apparently oblivious to the fate of the last person who tried to cherish a woman on this stage.
She shook her hands, revealing two Godspeed Talismans which she placed on her long legs.
Chen Mobai had seen Shen Jian use this talisman before, its speed surprised even him.
It seemed that for those from The First High School who participated in the magic duel, the Godspeed Talisman was standard equipment.
With that thought, Wu Xue’s graceful figure danced as if evading lashings from the stone whips and, amazingly, made a swift twist and rushed towards Shi Yuanqing. Her long fingers turned into claws, fiercely aiming for her opponent’s forehead.
A golden light emerged, blocking the attack.
Golden Light Talisman, a very practical talisman.
Chen Mobai nodded silently, and at that moment, Shi Yuanqing spat out a flame. But Wu Xue was able to sidestep the flames at close range thanks to the speed of the Godspeed Talisman.
“How long does this Godspeed Talisman last?”
Chen Mobai identified the problem and asked Shi Jingjing standing next to him.
“Selling of Godspeed Talismans that last more than ten minutes is officially approved by our school.”
“So you mean, there’s no upper limit to the duration of the Godspeed Talisman?”
If this was the case, isn’t this talisman the most powerful talisman in this duel!
Well, not exactly, if it lasts more than ten minutes but less than thirty minutes, it’s considered a lower-grade Rank-i talisman; if it lasts more than thirty minutes, it’s considered an intermediate-grade Rank-t talisman; if it lasts more than an hour, it’s considered an upper-grade Rank-1 talisman.”
Even so, this talisman is a bit too powerful.”
Chen Mobai muttered to himself, pondering various tactics to counter this Godspeed Talisman in his mind..
