Chapter 136 Final (3)
Chapter 136 Final (3)
"The last minute." Wen Xun slowly raised one arm, lightning surging in his palm. The feeling of power filling his body was so wonderful, it made him feel like he was standing on the top of a mountain, overlooking everything, and could easily destroy the enemy.
Although they would wait for Jiang Liujing's answer, the magic power in the venue had been completely occupied by the lightning element. Countless thin and dense purple lines surrounded Jiang Liujing like tangled spider silk, forming an invisible threat.
"Tell me your answer."
The black-haired child who had been silent like a puppet finally moved.
He raised his eyes and looked at Wen Xun. Even though he was in an unfavorable situation at the moment, there was no fear on his face.
"I won't admit defeat."
His voice was not loud, but very clear, reaching everyone's ears.
In the chaos and commotion that was suddenly stirred up by this sentence, all expression on Wen Xun's face disappeared. He stared at Jiang Liujing for a few seconds, then a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Really?"
"I gave you a chance."
The roommate relationship of less than two weeks was exchanged for an opportunity to admit defeat without any injury. It was a rare kindness of Wen Xun, but he did not expect Jiang Liujing to not accept it.
Wen Xun even felt a little angry at this moment, and attacked without leaving any room for anyone else.
He sang:
"Roar, wrath of the sky, tear apart falsehood, illuminate the truth, and let all obstacles be reduced to ashes under my lightning!"
As if responding to his call, dark clouds quickly gathered in the sky, thunder roared, and thick streaks of lightning streaked across the sky, heading straight for Jiang Liujing's position. The entire venue was enveloped in brilliant lightning, and the air was filled with a strong smell of ionization, foreshadowing the impending devastating blow.
"This is your choice. Then, let me put an end to your stubbornness with this fifth-level lightning spell."
Wen Xun's voice was cold, and his eyes flashed with determination. He waved his arm, and the lightning that gathered the power of heaven and earth roared out like an angry dragon and went straight to Jiang Liujing.
With a resounding boom, the heavens and earth were torn apart. The thunder roared high, violent, and shrill, like a dragon king raising its head and spreading its wings. The entire space shook violently, and thousands of lightning bolts rained down from the sky, colliding and merging into one force. The power was completely different from the original.
A terrifying field of thunder and lightning is forming, and terrifying thunder is impacting head-on. Countless shrill whistles are as terrified and desperate as the howling souls in hell.
"Stop them! If this strike lands, the little guy will die." The dean of the Earth Academy frowned. He knew that this year's representative from their academy, Mo Ya, had a good relationship with Jiang Liujing, and was willing to lend a hand.
Principal Lavie had already drawn his staff, and a faint magical element swirled around him. Although they were far away from the field, he could still stop the game at any time.
But for some reason he didn't make a move. Instead, he looked at Jiang Liujing, who was still expressionless on the stage, and said slowly after pondering, "No, wait a little longer."
He always felt that this kid was not someone who would not care about his life. Since he did not choose to admit defeat just now, he must have some backup plan.
On the court, Jiang Liujing looked up at the thunder rushing towards him.
What a desperate moment! The blow from the peak fifth-order magic power spanned two entire levels, leaving him with almost no room for resistance.
——But only almost.
His long hair was blown into the air, and his dark pupils reflected the blinding light of lightning, but he did not flinch at all. Amidst the sound of thunder, he let out a shout that was not loud but full of trust.
"red--"
The rest of the magical light on Jiang Liujing disappeared.
A hazy red light suddenly burned up from the center of his eyebrows and spread throughout his body in an instant.
Without the appearance of a summoning array, the shadow of a gigantic beast suddenly appeared out of thin air behind him. The next second, the shadow became a solid object.
Crimson scales, crimson armor, every inch of it seemed forged from burning flames. Its massive form, its icy eyes, needed no words. It strode forward with both hooves, completely enveloping Jiang Liujing beneath its body.
A red defensive shield suddenly unfolded from the two horns on its head. Although it was clearly defending, its madly expanding outward posture seemed as if it was the one dominating the battle.
The lightning slammed heavily into the light shield, a blow of immense power barely shattering it. The flames clinging to the shield, like a long-starved glutton, instantly pounced, devouring any remaining lightning. In a matter of seconds, the terrifying blow was gone.
Wen Xun opened his eyes wide in disbelief. How could it be possible?
He has already reached the peak of level five, almost level six. Even if Jiang Liujing's contracted beast is of a higher level, its strength should be greatly reduced due to the constraints of the contract. Could it be that its true strength is so strong that it can ignore the loss?
He had never imagined that there was such a contract in the world that could fully unleash the power of both parties.
Jiang Liujing was hidden under Chi's belly, and the scorching hot breath enveloped him. It was actually very unbearable for a water mage, but Jiang Liujing was not a real water mage, and he only felt safe and warm in this rich fire magic.
He secretly surveyed Chi's form from the shadows, realizing this wasn't Chi's true form, but rather a random mimicry of another mythical beast. Jiang Liujing had never seen this kind of mythical beast before; was it something Chi had simulated from his own memories?
Outside the field, Principal Laviere retracted his staff and returned to his seat.
There was a strange light flashing in his old eyes, which seemed to be surprise, but more of it was strangeness.
"Do you recognize him?" he asked the dean of the Fire Hospital.
In fact, this question was a bit redundant, because from the other party's complex and unpredictable expression, which was like eating shit, Lavie had already got the answer he wanted.
He sighed slowly and said, "The Red Flame Qilin, a top-level mythical beast of the Fire Element, actually chose a young human mage of the Water Element to form a contract."
Among the fantasy beasts, those who can be classified as the top ranks are those who can reach the tenth level at their peak. Even in human countries, they are undoubtedly the top powerhouses.
No one could understand why such a being would make a contract with a mage with completely opposite attributes. Even if they were attracted by each other's potential, the difference in their attributes was too huge, wasn't it?
The Dean of the Fire Academy was obviously the one who couldn't understand the most. The Red Flame Qilin, this was the Red Flame Qilin, the fantasy beast that fire mages dreamed of, but he ended up signing a contract with a child from the Water Academy?
For a moment, he even had an extremely dark thought. The contract was not unbreakable. As long as one party was deleted, a new contract could be signed.
But he quickly dismissed the thought and shook his head vigorously. After so many years as the dean, he couldn't guarantee that he was a very ethical teacher, but at least he couldn't do something as shameless as stealing a student's phantom beast.
