“Eh? Eh? Eh? Eh?” Wu Haoyang seemed to have completely transformed into a repeater amidst the messy wind. He continuously “eh-ing” while scurrying away.
Eight meters away, Wu Haoyang felt the great power in his waist disappearing.
He leaned back and slowed down, step by step. After running for a few steps, he finally regained his balance and his back was finally straight again.
The expressionless Han Jiangxue was right in front of him.
Wu Haoyang turned red. He was still being all arrogant and haughty, but to his surprise, he was actually pushed out in the next second.
Who is it?
What kind of strange Star Technique is this?
He just poked me lightly, but I ended up being pushed out by more than ten meters?
Wu Haoyang turned around, only to see Jiang Xiao standing in the spot that he was in earlier on.
It turns out to be him!?!
It turns out to be this Medical Awakened!?!
It turns out to be the little toxic healer who panicked and fled without even daring to fight with me!?!
Wu Haoyang looked at Jiang Xiao and then at the border not too far away. He was so infuriated that he sat on the ground and punched it forcefully while gritting his teeth in anger. “Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!”
Wu Haoyang’s Star Power reserve was still very sufficient, and there was almost no harm done to his body at all. In all, he could still fight for another 300 rounds.
He had numerous Star Techniques and combat skills, but there was nowhere he could use them.
Everyone witnessed the scene, and a huge uproar ensued in the Red Sun Stadium!
Everyone knew what level Wu Haoyang was on.
Ever since the preliminary round and the quarter-finals, Wu Haoyang had always been the strongest in martial arts!
He had always been positive!
He had always won righteously!
He would win in an upright and honest manner!
Today, Wu Haoyang met the legendary Goddess Xue, and yet, he still trumped her! He was the better Rules Awakened!
The two competed in the air by using wind-series Star Techniques. There was an exchange of blows between the Flame Torch Whip and the sword. However, there was no doubt that Wu Haoyang won!
He did not expect to have been plotted against by a villain…
The horrendous little black hand gently poked forward and stabbed them.
The mighty hero actually got prodded out of the arena.
There was a huge uproar in Su Rou’s live-stream and numerous pop-up messages flooded the screen like tides.
“Awesome!”
“I’m laughing my guts out. Hahahahaha!”
“Damn it, this kid must be poisonous, eh?”
“If you punched and kicked, I’ll be convinced, but what the hell were you prodding at~”
“Despicable attacker who threw a kidney shot!”
“Hahaha, I’m thrilled. He’s clearly a Medical Awakened who’s supposed to heal the injured and save lives. Yet, he became a scheming jerk who backstabs.”
“Xiaopi, Xiaopi, I’m an older girl who’s a fan of you. Don’t poke him, come poke me instead.”
“…”
On the track in the Red Sun Stadium, Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Xiao and pointed at the distance with her chin, hinting for him to look at the direction of the football field.
Jiang Xiao pursed his lips and thought, Little Jiangxue is so cold and indifferent. She didn’t praise me at all.
Despite criticizing her in his head, Jiang Xiao still turned around obediently to look at the arena.
The An sisters stood in the middle of the arena with a look of horror on their faces.
Jiang Xiao saw Qian Zhuang begin carried away at the borders of the opponent’s court.
Did Xia Yan seize the opportunity to get rid of him?
In front of the border of the other half of the arena, Xia Yan exhaled a chilly air while holding onto her giant sword and turning around to look at the middle of the arena.
This battle was really unpredictable.
Everyone’s rhythm was disrupted and countless spectators were stunned speechless.
When the wind and snow dissipated, the numerous confrontations and conflicts that took place in a short period of time fully showed the students’ abilities to react to changes on the spot. The two commanders showed their amazing abilities and suffered almost no damage, but they were both kicked out.
By the time everyone recovered from the shock, on the arena, there were only two nurses, one Medical Awakened, and one butcher left.
The issue had surfaced.
Two Medical Awakened VS one Medical Awakened + 1 Melee fighter.
Who had greater chances of winning?
Xia Yan tilted her head left and right, with the crisp sounds of bones cracking.
She looked at the panicking An sisters and smiled callously while striding towards the middle of the arena with her giant sword.
Jiang Xiao also strode out and picked up the wooden giant sword on the ground before walking towards the middle.
While walking, he thought about what he should do in the battle.
Although their opponents were now two little nurses, he didn’t know if they were the kind of girls who looked less muscular than they really were, and actually had big muscles and toned 8-pack abs beneath their clothes. What if they were just hiding their abilities?
Of course, before the competition began, Jiang Xiao and his teammates had seen the list of Star Techniques belonging to the An sisters, as well as studied the characteristics of their fighting style and the highlights of their past competitions. The two of them… seemed to be purely assistive.
Although they had attended numerous freehand combat lessons, it would indeed be hard for them to fight and obtain victory against a real melee fighter.
Seeing that their enemies were approaching slowly, the sisters looked at each other in dismay.
An Luming stomped her feet anxiously and asked, “What do we do, Sis? They’re coming.”
“What are you afraid of!?! We trained hard in striking and our endurance is a hundred times better than theirs!” An Youyou exclaimed while keeping her back against An Luming’s back. Watching the opponents approaching, An Youyou continued, “It would be wonderful to drag it until the end of the competition. We’ll get to display our outstanding techniques and gain extra points from the referee.”
An Luming asked, “Half an hour? Don’t joke with me…”
An Youyou clenched her fist and continued to speak, trying to egg on her younger sister, “It has been a long time since the round started. Just focus on defending. Once they trigger the effect of resentment, we will take them both down in one blow!”
An Luming looked at the phantom flying in front of her and met Xia Yan’s menacing eyes. She said sobbingly, “Her gaze is so scary.”
“Hey, don’t cry!” Jiang Xiao suddenly exclaimed, his voice filling the air. “I hate it when girls cry because when they do, I feel like laughing.”
An Youyou was speechless.
So was An Luming.
While walking, Xia Yan glared at Jiang Xiao and turned her head to look at the An sisters. “Surrender.”
An Youyou shook her head forcefully.
Surrender?
How could that do!?! They had gone through a lot of hardships, from breaking through in the preliminary round to making their way to the quarter-finals. How could they surrender easily?
Although the champions and first runner-ups could all qualify for the National High School League, the bonus points awarded for the college entrance examination were different.
The champions would be awarded ten bonus points! The first runner-ups would only be given five!
The rewards were also different. The champion would be given four Gold Quality Star Beads which would all be high-quality and precious ones from the higher-level Dimensional Spaces.
On the other hand, the first runner-ups would only be given two Gold Quality and two Silver Quality Star Beads which were equally precious, though the quality would definitely be lower than those given to the champions.
Xia Yan looked at An Youyou’s firm gaze and nodded silently.
Although they were all of the same age, An Youyou’s adorable appearance and cute bun hairstyle did make her seem a little pitiful.
Xia Yan gave them a chance, but they did not accept it. Without hesitation, Xia Yan held onto her giant sword and waved it violently!
The arena was like a battlefield where victory and their fates were decided!
The An sisters frantically leaped towards the sides with shock on their faces.
Whoosh!
The sharp Flame Arc was thrown across space in between the both of them and Xia Yan managed to plunge in between them like a phantom, following the trajectory of the Flame Arc.
Jiang Xiao finally rushed to the middle, only to see An Luming being propelled away. He watched as she slid far, far away on the artificial grass, causing a long trace to appear on the ground.
“Luming!” An Youyou yelled anxiously as she reached her right hand out.
Ring-ring-ring!
A crisp and sweet sound of Bell rang—An Youyou was trying to heal her younger sister.
Jiang Xiao took the opportunity to put an Imprint on himself, and then… the bouncing ray of medical light changed its direction and attached itself to Jiang Xiao.
Did her own Bell fall into others’ arms?
An Youyou couldn’t care much. She turned away and immediately connected herself to Xia Yan using the Star Technique Counter-current Light.
The black ray of light connected An Youyou and Xia Yan, with the purpose of damaging both of them!
She wanted to make Xia Yan refrain from attacking, lest she harm herself!
As long as Xia Yan used any destructive Star Technique, An Youyou would go all out!
Xia Yan froze in shock for a moment, for she didn’t expect An Youyou to choose such a solution. She put her giant sword behind her and walked towards An Youyou.
An Youyou looked at Xia Yan with her guard up while Green Glow appeared in her hand. However, she did not launch any other offensive Star Techniques.
The only thing she could rely on was the Star Technique “Enmity”.
Enmity (Brass Quality): When attacked by an enemy at close range, there is a 1% chance of causing the enemy to end up in a random and slightly negative state.
An Youyou knew that she was putting her hopes too high. Even if the one percent chance was triggered, the enemy would only suffer from a “slight” negative state.
Frostbite, burns, nausea, and even dizziness would be extremely mild. It would truly be difficult for An Youyou to seize the opportunity to retaliate.
If Xia Yan were to become temporarily paralyzed, it would be a godsend opportunity. A melee warrior like Xia Yan would possibly seize the opportunity to kill the enemy.
However, if she were to get a bad headache, none of that would work.
Xia Yan quickly stepped forward, effortlessly evading An Youyou’s punches. She was extremely swift and nimble. She made her way behind An Youyou and grabbed An Youyou’s throat with her right hand.
An Youyou struggled violently while Xia Yan’s locked her throat with her right arm. She then quickly put her left arm around An Youyou’s throat too and seemed to try to perform a naked choke.
Due to their difference in height, An Youyou was lifted into the air kicking her legs violently.
Xia Yan was extremely annoyed and immediately sprawled on the ground with An Youyou. She straddled An Youyou and tightened her grip around her neck.
Sensing that she was getting increasingly suffocated, An Youyou, who was almost unconscious, also lost control of the Counter-current Light.
Of course, if Jiang Xiao was not there, Xia Yan wouldn’t have dared to use that Star Technique. An Luming was like a kitten or puppy that would bite if no one was looking.
On the other side, An Luming couldn’t help but shudder, and she hurriedly said to Jiang Xiao, “Little Icicle, we admit defeat. Get her to let go.”
“You’re the only one remaining, so you call the shots,” said Xia Yan, who let go in a timely manner. An Youyou had already passed out because of the lack of oxygen.
“I surrender, I surrender!” An Luming exclaimed frantically. Looking into Xia Yan’s eyes, An Luming shivered in fear, as if she had seen a formidable and menacing female butcher. An Luming reached her small hand out and tugged the corner of Jiang Xiao’s shirt. She then quickly hid behind him.
Xia Yan was dumbfounded.
What’s going on?
Seeing that An Luming was hiding behind Jiang Xiao, both the host and the spectators were stunned.
Su Rou was also dumbfounded. “Wow, what did I just see?”
“Host, you’re watching a cliffhanger of a romance drama now. Where has the enemy gone?”
“Wow, he actually took wooing girls to the finals?”
“Damn it, is this kid toxic?”
“Some people seem to be competing on the surface, but in reality, they’re there to pick up girls.”
“Let’s invite the champion member, Jiang Xiaopi, to give his winning speech. ‘I didn’t do anything, I just touched Wu Haoyang’s waist and flirted with a girl along the way. I managed to win the entire competition just like that. The Beijiang Provincial League is so fun, I want to do it again next time!'”
“Ah! Jiang Xiaopi!!! You scheming jerk!!!”
