Global Deities: Rising as Wood Elves' God

Just as the situation reached a critical point, Zhang Yi moved. Sitting back and taking a beating was never his style; he always took the initiative. If he wasn’t mistaken, beating this Candidate Saint Child to death, right here on this battleship, would carry no major consequences. After all, Zhang Yi was backed by a Powerful Divine Being. What about the Candidate Saint Child from the Church of Light? What kind of backing did he have?

If this Candidate Saint Child’s strength was great enough, his potential so outstanding, he wouldn’t be a mere Candidate Saint Child. He would be a core Saint Child of the Church of Light. Only core Saint Children were permitted to meet the God of Light and be personally trained as his subordinates.

Seeing that Elias, the Candidate Saint Child who came from the same place as her, was truly about to break the rules of the University Alliance Training Camp, the Candidate Saintess, Emily, stepped in to stop him again. "That’s enough, Elias!" she whispered urgently. "Have you forgotten what the instructors said?

"If you dare to make a move here today, you will be expelled from the University Alliance Training Camp. And once you’re expelled, you will lose the Church of Light’s... support..."

Something Emily said must have struck a nerve. The Candidate Saint Child, Elias, actually began to bring his rage under control, and the Long Spear condensed from Light Divine Power slowly dissipated.

"Fine! Fine! Fine!" he spat. "Since the University Alliance Training Camp forbids students from brawling with Divine Power, then I won’t use Divine Power. However, no one can stop me from unleashing the pressure of a Ninth Transformation Demigod, can they!"

Before his voice had even faded, a powerful, scorching Divine Suppression filled with Light Power erupted from him.

BOOM!

A brilliant but not blinding, milky-white Holy Light instantly radiated out from Elias. The faint, ethereal sound of a sacred choir seemed to echo in the air as the temperature in the student cafeteria shot up by more than ten degrees, filling the room with the thick presence of Holy Light and scorching heat. The brunt of this Holy Light Suppression was locked directly onto Zhang Yi.

Elias couldn’t wait to see this upstart student kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy. He would release his pressure slowly, first letting his opponent experience the feeling of suffocation before forcing him to his knees. After that, he would make him grovel on the ground like a dog. Only after the man barked would he release his Divine Suppression.

It was a wonderful little fantasy. However, if Zhang Yi had known what the Candidate Saint Child was thinking, he would have simply told him that daydreaming wasn’t good for one’s health.

This Divine Suppression, thick with the aura of Holy Light, crashed like a raging tidal wave toward the students of the Yanhuang Federation. The first to bear the brunt were Hong Tianyi and Gu Yun, who stood at the very front with Zhang Yi. Hong Tianyi grunted as red flames erupted around his body, but he was clearly at a disadvantage. An earthy-yellow light swirled around Gu Yun, forming a defense of mountains and Earth, leaving him in a much better state than Hong Tianyi. However, even this earthy-yellow defense constantly trembled and dimmed under the pressure of the Light Divine Power.

The entire student cafeteria fell silent in an instant, leaving only the sound of the White Eagle Federation’s power clashing against the Yanhuang Federation’s students. The other three factions sensed the scene unfold, and their expressions turned solemn.

The two-meter-tall, brown-haired giant from the Giant Bear Federation lost his smile, his eyes turning sharp. A Ninth Transformation Demigod! The White Eagle Alliance really invested heavily this time! Our Giant Bear Federation hasn’t produced a Ninth Transformation Demigod yet. It’s not wise to clash with the White Eagle Federation.

Originally, the giant had planned to act as a peacemaker between the White Eagle and Yanhuang Federations, especially since the Yanhuang Federation had a decent relationship with his own. But he never expected that while he was engrossed in watching the drama, he would miss the perfect moment to intervene. The situation had escalated to the point where even if he wanted to help, he was powerless to do so. It’s not that I don’t want to help; I’m simply powerless to. Good luck to you, students of the Yanhuang Federation, he thought to himself.

Meanwhile, the three leaders from the Holy Roman Federation—a young nobleman, a young scholar, and the Royal Princess—all silently straightened their backs, assessing the gap between their own faction and the White Eagle Federation students. They began to confer in low, urgent voices.

"This is bad. Their Ninth Transformation Demigod gives them too great of an advantage!"

"We don’t have a single one. We can’t compete with them at all."

"The third round of the exchange tournament... the situation looks dire for us!"

"The few days of travel on this battleship aren’t enough time for us to break through."

"Are we supposed to attempt a breakthrough in the middle of the tournament? That’s even more impossible!"

Their hushed discussion grew more frantic.

As for the students from the Third World Federation, they held their breath, their eyes filled with unease, praying that the Divine Suppression wouldn’t be directed their way.

Elias was very pleased with the effect he had created. A cold smile played on his lips as he watched Hong Tianyi and Gu Yun struggling desperately under his Holy Light Suppression. He prepared to add more fuel to the fire and force them to their knees completely.
