章 338: Chapter 338: You Should Be Grateful That This is a Game
...
A glimmer of silver light shimmered on the sharp blade, captivating everyone's attention.
Huo Wu froze, her eyes fixated on the man in front of her. From the depths of her heart, a chilling sensation spread, making her whole body tremble uncontrollably. It felt as if even her spirit was freezing.
Huo Wu had already charged up her fourth spirit technique, "[Flaming Dance: Brilliant Sun]" It was an immensely powerful technique, capable of storing energy from other people's spirits. With the additional spirit power provided by her teammates in the Team Blazing, Huo Wu's fully charged [Flaming Dance: Brilliant Sun] could even inflict heavy damage on Spirit King level spirit masters.
This fourth spirit technique of hers could rival even the fusion techniques between spirit masters. It was something Huo Wu was always proud of.
She knew that Zeng Yi was strong, but even strength had its limits. Only when she released her fully charged spirit technique, [Flaming Dance: Brilliant Sun], she believed that she would be able to defeat him.
[Flaming Dance: Brilliant Sun] was almost a perfect spirit technique, except for one flaw; it required charging up.
And whether her opponent would give her that opportunity depended solely on their mood.
However, Huo Wu never expected that her teammates wouldn't even be able to buy her ten seconds of time!
Currently, Huo Wu had already fully charged her spirit technique, but the man's blade was already pressed against her fragile neck.
Come out, [Flaming Dance: Brilliant Sun]
"You've already lost, Team Blazing." Zeng Yi revealed his spirit technique, squinting his eyes as he stared at Huo Wu. He could even hear the girl's fearful heartbeat.
Now, all that remained was for the other side to surrender.
"No, we haven't lost yet."
Zeng Yi couldn't help but be stunned, feeling somewhat surprised as he looked at Huo Wu. There was a hint of stubbornness flashing in her eyes, which he couldn't quite comprehend.
Who gave you the courage to say that?
???
Zeng Yi raised an eyebrow.
Huo Wu suppressed the fear welling up within her, her gaze unwavering as she looked straight at Zeng Yi. She pretended to be calm as she said, "I've already fully charged my fourth spirit technique, [Flaming Dance: Brilliant Sun]. With just a thought, I can release it. The reason you rushed to interrupt me is that you also felt the terrifying power of this spirit technique, right? You're afraid of it!"
"Although your blade is pressed against my neck, do you dare to kill me? As long as I release my spirit technique, victory is still up in the air."
Zeng Yi was taken aback, seeing the defiance in Huo Wu's fiery eyes. He sensed the challenge she issued to him.
"Haha~"
Seeing the seriousness on Huo Wu's face, Zeng Yi couldn't help but burst into laughter. He laughed so hard that tears almost came out.
"What are you laughing at?" Huo Wu was annoyed by Zeng Yi's laughter.
"It's so amusing, this is the funniest joke I've ever heard." Zeng Yi laughed heartily, tears almost streaming down his face.
"Do you think you're mocking me?" Huo Wu couldn't comprehend Zeng Yi's behavior. To let go at a time like this, was he looking down on her?
This humiliation made Huo Wu furious. Her chest heaved with agitated emotions, her arm holding the small sun aloft trembling. It seemed like her emotions were about to erupt.
Zeng Yi smiled as he looked at the girl, shaking his head. "No, it is you who is mocking me. Do you really think that your fourth spirit technique can defeat me?"
"Yes, your fourth spirit technique's power did surprise me, but only surprised, not unbeatable. Perhaps, I might sustain some injuries from receiving your spirit technique, but have you ever thought about what would happen if your spirit technique explodes on the arena stage? The energy contained within it, once unleashed, what do you think would happen to your teammates?" Zeng Yi smiled and glanced at the fallen Team Blazing members lying on the battlefield.
Following Zeng Yi's gaze, Huo Wu saw her older brother, Huo Wushuang, as well as Huo Yun and Huo Yu, and the two auxiliary spirit masters lying in a large pit. She was dumbfounded.
Zeng Yi continued, "Yes, they would die under the assault of your spirit technique. It's truly naive of you. I can't help but wonder, even though you've reached the Spirit Ancestor level in cultivation, how could you still harbor such childish thoughts?"
Zeng Yi's words struck like thunder, crashing into Huo Wu's mind, almost causing her spirit to collapse.
Huo Wu stood motionless, her spirit power dissipated, and the blazing small sun above the arena platform also dissipated with a violent surge of hot wind, spreading out in all directions.
At this moment, all the stubbornness in Huo Wu's heart had disappeared. Her fighting spirit vanished, her arms hanging limply at her sides as she stood there blankly, doubting her existence.
Seeing Huo Wu devoid of any fighting spirit, Zeng Yi's face broke into a relaxed smile. He walked past her, brushing her as he said, "You should be grateful that this is just a game. Otherwise, you would have died long ago."
As the two bodies passed by each other, Huo Wu heard these words once again.
So, in his eyes, the efforts she gave and the glory she believed in as a Spirit Ancestor power were merely a game?
What a ridiculous game it was!
Huo Wu lowered her head, her hair hiding her eyes. But beneath her bangs, her eyes were empty and lifeless. She clenched her teeth so hard that blood burst, her fists tightly clenched, and her nails deeply embedding themselves into her delicate flesh. Warm blood flowed through her fingers, dripping onto the arena platform, staining the asphalt slabs red.
Defeat, unwillingness, despair, helplessness—negative emotions flooded Huo Wu's heart. Finally, she looked up with a bitter smile, loosening her tightly clenched fists.
"We surrender."
Although Huo Wu's voice was not loud, the referee on the platform clearly heard it. With a touch of pity in his eyes, he sighed and picked up the microphone to announce the result to the audience.
"On the first match of the third day of the preliminaries, Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's Second Team wins!"
With the referee's announcement, the audience erupted into enthusiastic cheers, like a tidal wave.
After this match, no one would doubt the strength of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's Second Team, or rather, Zeng Yi's strength, because this team only had him fighting.
Even the Team Blazing, recognized as a strong team by all participating teams, was defeated by this one-man team of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, with lightning-like tactics.
Such a powerful team was truly unrivaled in the Heavenly Dou Empire.
Even the audience believed that this year's championship already belonged to the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. They couldn't think of any other team that could compete against this "monster."
"Hahaha, very well. It seems like the Heaven Dou Empire has a chance to win the championship this time!" On the main stage, the Emperor Xue Ye, looked at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's Second Team, which once again defeated their opponents with thunderous force, and couldn't help but laugh heartily.
"That's right, under Zeng Yi's leadership, this time the championship will definitely belong to our Heaven Dou Imperial Academy." The three members of Board of Education of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy in the second row immediately became yes-men, complying with Emperor Xue Ye's words. Their faces bloomed like chrysanthemums, filled with extreme joy.
The Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament had been held four times, and among them, the Spirit Hall had won twice, the Star Luo Empire had won once, but the Heaven Dou Empire had never won.
This time, it should be the Heaven Dou Empire's turn, right?
