Chapter 271 - 134 Three Kings Shield_2
Long Dangdang sighed helplessly, "How do you know it’ll be Zisang Liuying who chooses first, and not me who is ranked higher?"
Yue Li paused for a moment, then after a brief silence, said, "The odds are slim. I think in this demon hunting team selection competition, nobody can beat her, she’s really too strong. That’s why I got cold feet when you said yesterday that she was your target. Even in your Spirit Furnace Academy, Zisang Liuying is an explosively powerful force. I don’t think it’s possible to beat her."
"My Simultaneous Solar-Lunar Radiation Spirit Furnace is one of the top ten spirit furnaces in the Magic Temple, ranking ninth. While Zisang Liuying’s Common Origin Spirit Furnace ranks third. Most importantly, her personal abilities and her compatibility with her Common Origin Spirit Furnace are said to the highest in the history of the Magic Temple. The compatibility of the Common Origin Spirit Furnace with the elements it can control is related to the number of elements it can manipulate. It can harmonise different elemental attributes and combine them, thus easily completing combination magic. The more types of elements one can control, the more powerful the combination magic will be. For a common mage, if they want to control a combination of two elemental magics, they have to consider whether the elements can echo each other, or whether there is a symbiotic relationship. For instance, the water and fire elements are almost impossible to combine under normal circumstances. I can only harmonize these two elements which are naturally conflicting and slow my progress with the help of Simultaneous Solar-Lunar Radiation Spirit Furnace. But the Common Origin Spirit Furnace is different, with it, Zisang Liuying can even harmonise six elements at once and combine them as she pleases. Therefore, even if she hasn’t reached the 6th Rank, she can contend with those at the 7th Rank level through combination magic."
Long Dangdang had always known that Zisang Liuying was very strong. If his cousin hadn’t used the Forbidden Spell against the wraith at the last minute, she might not have been able to beat her. But hearing it from Yue Li, who was more familiar with the Magic Temple, he came to realize just how powerful Zisang Liuying truly was.
"With Zisang Liuying controlling six elements, under the effect of the Common Origin Spirit Furnace, her spirit furnace’s effectiveness is even hailed as the top in the Magic Temple. Her future prospects are limitless. The Magic Temple Master just recently decided to take her as a personal disciple and a closed-door disciple at that. She’s been designated as the future Sacred Legate. Such a distinguished character, I wonder what kind of demon hunting team she’ll end up forming." Yue Li said with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"Yue Li, thank you for your recognition. But I can’t give you a clear answer right now. Regarding our own future, we always have to fight for it, to attain the best we can be, don’t we?" Long Dangdang said earnestly.
Yue Li nodded, "I understand. In fact, I have always been fighting my way through. When I first started at the Magic Academy, I was at the very bottom of my class. It wasn’t until I acquired the Simultaneous Solar-Lunar Radiation Spirit Furnace by chance that I got an opportunity and avoided being eliminated. Unlike you, those who are able to enter the Spirit Furnace Academy are the elites of elites, blessed with great advantage. Everything I have now, I fought for it with all my power, and I will continue to fight like this. Team Leader, let’s fight together. We can wait until the final rankings come out."
"Sure, let’s go for it!"
As a seeded player, Long Dangdang was the first one to enter the arena in every round of the competition in his group. And his opponent today was an assassin.
Assassins fighting in the competition stage are naturally somewhat limited, as the large arena can’t make any changes to the battlefield to help them. The only aid given is a consideration of the time.
When an assassin encounters a knight, if they can hold on and not lose for ten minutes, they are considered to have won! Professionally, knights suppress assassins the most. Knights have both attack and defence and also have a mount. Assassins, without the protection of the environment, are really at a disadvantage.
However, even with such preferential treatment, what chance could an assassin have when they encounter Long Dangdang with his Holy Diversion Spirit Furnace, which also has a 2nd rank Redirection ability?
