Chapter 179 Victory; Dragon Fang Arena
Chapter 179 Victory; Dragon Fang Arena
Time was of the essence; all other elements in the arena were driven away, leaving only a chilling aura.
In the short span of a breath, the entire arena was filled with frost, completely transforming into a snow-covered wonderland, where everything was covered in silver and looked no different from a snow-capped mountain.
Hidden in the darkness, Ming Busong was largely unaffected. He looked up at Mu Ningxue in the air and thought to himself, "Why haven't I seen this woman before?"
Ming Busong has an amazing memory; he remembers everyone in the Huaxia National Government team, but he never saw this woman when they were besieging the Red Ornament Guild.
"I guess they're latecomers to the National Team," Ming Busong smiled slightly. "Placing themselves in such an obvious place is really careless!"
The next second, Mingbusong moved silently through the snow-covered tree canopy, approaching Mu Ningxue who was hovering in mid-air.
The area covered by ice and snow is expanding, and the cold air is becoming increasingly intense. Ming Busong has already felt the terrifying power of this ice system.
Ming Busong had been waiting for an opportunity, and when Mu Ningxue was about to unleash her destructive magic and an ice-type constellation appeared beside her, he made his move.
A flash of dark light, and the dark blade slashed across Mu Ningxue's back. The immense dark invasion and forbidden power quickly penetrated the wound and entered Mu Ningxue's mind.
Ming Busong was still in mid-air when he couldn't help but turn around. He enjoyed watching the incredulous expression on his opponent's face when he was ambushed, and he believed Mu Ningxue did too.
Such a perfect move will surely elicit even more gasps and applause!
Click click click!
However, her eyes revealed no emotion whatsoever, and her face was cold and beautiful, but it was as if everything was locked inside a mirror, which gradually began to crack. As the mirror shattered, Mu Ningxue also disappeared.
"What?!" Ming Busong was shocked. He had clearly hit the target, so why did this happen?
As if realizing something, Ming Busong quickly turned his head and saw the silver-haired woman looking at him with her emotionless eyes on the opposite side of where the mirror image had shattered.
An icy illusion?!
What kind of outrageous magical control is this?!
At the same time, a burst of exclamations and applause rang out from the audience, but they were all for Mu Ningxue. They hadn't expected this woman to have such abilities.
After a scream, the referee announced the result.
"Japan National Team's Akiho Matsu is eliminated!"
At this moment, Mu Ningxue also completed her advanced ice magic, Frozen Coffin.
The five spirit pillars slammed down on the location where Shao Hegu and the others were, causing a terrifying freezing tremor in an area of several hundred meters in radius. Ice crystal powder swept in all directions, and the five spirit pillars stood there, creating a spectacular scene.
The remaining four were scattered by this force, and some of them were even forced to draw their armored demonic tools. Their expressions were not relaxed.
"Rock Python!" Shao Hegu knew that if they didn't take down this female ice mage first, they would lose sooner or later.
The thick ice cracked open, and a rock python emerged directly from the ground, traversing the forest. Shao Hegu stood on the python's head, and the python slowly raised its head. A brown glint flashed in Shao Hegu's eyes; he intended to use his petrification power to deal with Mu Ningxue.
But before he could make a move, a flash of silver light appeared, and Ai Jiangtu appeared on the back of the rock python.
"Ai Jiangtu!" Shao Hegu turned around and looked at Ai Jiangtu.
"You four take care of the others, I'll handle Shaohe Valley," Ai Jiangtu said.
The Chinese team now has a numerical advantage. If they can hold off Shao Hegu against the Japanese team, which only has four players left, then the first victory will eventually belong to the Chinese team.
Soon, the referee announced the elimination of two more players: Guan Yu from the Chinese team and Yosuke from the Japanese team.
One in front of the other.
The ice and snow were getting thicker and thicker. The remaining three members of the Japanese team not only had to fight off the attacks of the four members of the Chinese team, but also had to resist the constant cold attacks from Mu Ningxue's Ice Domain. The outcome of this battle was already obvious.
"China team wins!"
After the referee announced the verdict, the fierce wind and snow in the arena suddenly stopped, and cheers erupted from the entire audience.
"Holy crap, we won!"
"Haha, a winning start in the first game, that's awesome!"
The other team members immediately cheered and went to greet the players who had finished the battle, and the healing mage also came to heal the players' wounds.
"Very good. It seems that being eliminated from the team back then was not a bad thing. You fought back with your own efforts and shone brightly in the first battle. It's like you've been reborn!" Feng Li looked at Mu Ningxue and didn't hold back his praise.
"You were eliminated before?" Pang Lai was taken aback for a moment, then a smile of approval appeared on her face.
If Feng Li hadn't brought this up, everyone would probably have almost forgotten that Mu Ningxue was indeed eliminated because she failed to break through to the advanced level and returned to China to work as a museum caretaker for a period of time.
Now that he has rejoined the team, his strength is on par with the regular members, and he even seems to have surpassed some of them. His powerful ice domain is so strong that even Shao Hegu would probably not be able to gain any advantage within it.
"It must be those fragments!" Mu Tingying gritted her teeth.
"She must have absorbed those fragments, which is why her cultivation level has increased so much!" Nan Rongni's face was gloomy.
Seeing Mu Ningxue leave, Mo Fan chased after her, and beat up Prince Banpo of the Spanish royal family, then threw him into the water.
The opponents for the Chinese team in the last two games are not very strong. Ai Jiangtu has already played in the first game, and Lu Jie and Mo Fan will not be sent out in the next two games.
Mo Fan was bored and happened to know that his sister Xin Xia was dealing with some infectious disease in Croatia, so he took advantage of his free time to go there. He also dragged Zhang Xiaohou, who was on vacation, along with him, and didn't forget to invite the little girl Lingling.
After the opening match, the venue for the National Tournament was changed to a place called Dragon Fang Arena.
This arena was not a temporary setup, but rather a long-standing rocky forest, with towering stone peaks resembling the fangs of a dragon.
The stone peaks vary in height; some are only a few meters high, like artificial mountains, while others are thirty or forty meters high, comparable to some tall buildings.
Mo Fan was rushing over here, while the Spanish prince Banbo was still flitting about, and no one paid much attention to him, treating him as if he were invisible.
When Mo Fan arrived, the two started arguing and eventually placed a bet. Mo Fan had only been joking, but Zhao Manyan actually went, which startled him greatly, as he didn't have that much money!
At the same time, the entire Dragon Fang Arena was flooded, turning into a water battlefield. Fortunately, there were still exposed stone peaks, providing a place to stand.
After submitting the list of players to be on the field, the head referee signaled for both teams to enter the field.
On the Huaxia team's side, Feng Li gritted his teeth and immediately played a royal flush, playing out both Lu Jie and Mo Fan's two royal flushes, along with three support players: Nan Jue, Jiang Shaoxu, and Nan Rongni.
"Why do I feel like I can't suppress the corners of my mouth?" Zhao Manyan looked at Jiang Yu with a grin, his upturned lips even harder to suppress than an AK.
Me too.
