Chapter 26: Persistence
Amid the cheers of the people in the class, Wang Anyuan sat back beside You Yun.
Several teenagers in the same class strangled him by the neck and rubbed his hair vigorously: "Scare us, there is a trick!" "Okay, you, you really let you win that second-level chick!" "I thought you were going to be burned by the Explosive Technique!" "This counter-killing is amazing!" Wang Anyuan smiled: "Let go, you are going to strangle me!" ”
"Alright, let him wipe his sweat." Their homeroom teacher smiled. A girl handed Wang Anyuan a towel.
"Thank you." Wang Anyuan took the towel and wiped it on his face and neck.
"Congratulations." You Yun is sincere and authentic.
"Hey, good luck." Wang Anyuan didn't care about the authentic way. He was soaked in sweat and so hot that he pulled at his neckline.
Su Miel said with some disbelief: "He really only used the first level of magic to win the second level!" She began to really admire Wang Anyuan.
Rui Jin's battle followed, and his opponent was a first-class earth mage like him. The advantage of earth magic is that it has high defense, and Rui Jin used to strictly defend the defense line and use earth walls and earth shields to consume opponents. Unlike the other three systems, the Earth does not consume as much mana as offensive magic when casting an Earth Shield, but it is the most difficult to break.
The battle between two earth magicians, everyone thinks that it will be a "boring war of attrition".
The opponent apparently thinks so, too.
The opponent casts the earth shield first, and then throws the earth block to attack while covering himself. Attack and defense are perfectly coordinated, if other first-level magicians are afraid that they really don't have a move: strong attack? Breaking the earth shield costs a lot of mana. Defend? The magic shields of other classes require a lot of mana to maintain.
Level 1 is the initial step for all magicians, and the magic power is pitifully small. Therefore, the battle between first-level magicians is rarely interesting, cast a few attack magic, hold the magic shield for a while, and the person whose magic power is consumed first loses. After being promoted to level 2, the mana is greatly increased, and the strength of the attack magic is also increased. That's why Wang Anyuan, who is a first-level magician, is so excited to defeat a second-level magician.
Fortunately, Rui Jin is not a traditional earth magician.
He didn't rely entirely on defense.
After understanding the opponent's tactics, Rui Jin decisively removed the earthen shield for defense, and with a move with his right hand, an earthen wall appeared between the two of them, blocking the remaining clods of earth. The earthen wall did not touch the ground, but was suspended a few centimeters above the surface, and he stretched his hands forward, and the earthen wall pressed straight towards his opponent.
"Oh, that's the trick!" Su Mier remembered that when he fought against You Yun before, he also manipulated the earth wall like this. But that time, You Yun directly ignored the earthen wall and moved to attack Rui Jin, so they didn't know what the moving earthen wall was for.
The wall moves forward to block the view of both sides on the field, and the opponent casts several more blocks of dirt in an attempt to break down the wall, but apparently fails. Corresponding to the high defense value at the beginning of the Earth system, the attack power at the beginning of the Earth system is the lowest among the four systems. The opponent obviously didn't encounter this situation, but just gave up the attack and simply increased the earth shield in front of him to the strongest. However, when the earthen wall was about to touch his earth shield, it suddenly unloaded its strength and fell violently in front of him, falling apart and raising up a large cloud of dust.
He was stunned when the back of his head was suddenly slapped by a hard plane, and the whole person was crushed to the ground by a huge force.
"Another earthen wall!" It was the last thought that crossed his mind.
When the referee and the teacher tore through the broken earthen wall, they found that the student had fainted. "The left wins!" The referee said loudly. The teachers commanded the students to be carried to the infirmary.
Rui Jin was naturally praised by his classmates: "There are yours!" Look at how stupid you are usually and how you can use tactics! Rui Jin said: "Who do you say is stupid?!" ”
He gave You Yun a thumbs up and smiled brightly. You Yun also gave him a thumbs up and nodded with a smile.
You Yun lined up very late, during which Claire. Brown faced a second-level earth magician, and the battle process was not fancy, directly breaking through the opponent's defense, and beating the opponent to the point where he was powerless. Such a quick and clean battle made everyone think of her nickname of "Mother Big Worm". Jiang Delu, the "thin monkey" who had clashed with Rui Jin before, also narrowly won, swaggered back, and proudly accepted the praise of the rest. Su Mier heard Rui Jin say loudly, "Hey, this is enough for you to blow for a while." ”
To Sumier's surprise, the beautiful girl who had previously been with Winnie, who was at the same table as You Yun, also won the battle relatively easily, while Winnie was eliminated in the last round. For the rest of the students, she has only seen one or two sides at most, and I am afraid that there will be no intersection in the future, so she will not pay attention to it.
In previous matches, few people had used tactics, and it was common for magic to be thrown inaccurately and unsuccessfully, so almost no one was injured. In the last round, in addition to the second-level magicians who were already very strong, they were the second stunned people who were roughly defeated, and the importance of tactics could be highlighted when the strength of the two sides was equal. Everyone carefully calculates the gains and losses of magic power, or outwits like Wang Anyuan and Rui Jin.
The referee was always ready to intervene to stop an attack that could cause serious damage, and it was clear that the teachers did not care much about the students being injured or fainting, and the students who entered the infirmary came out intact in less than a quarter of an hour. "There are strong light mages among the doctors." You Yun pretended to talk to himself, but actually explained to the little rabbit.
After the start of the battle between You Yun, it was still the two sides who threw a few painless spells to identify the magic attributes. Both sides are previously powerful figures, and the two sides don't know each other, and after the temptation, they find that both sides are fire magicians.
The fire system has always been known for its high attacks, and opponents seem to be confident in themselves, sending fireballs non-stop, fast and urgent. You Yun mostly just dodged, and if he couldn't dodge, he used a small fire shield to block it, occasionally sending out one or two fireballs. His dodge was only exercised when he was fighting spirit beasts in the wild, and he was far less light than Wang Anyuan's footsteps. This kind of response won't last long, it's just a matter of conserving mana and finding an opportunity to attack. In order not to waste their magic, it doesn't take long for opponents to change their strategy.
However, the opponent's fireball smashed endlessly, and You Yun's movements gradually slowed down due to physical exhaustion. After his body retreated, he turned sharply to the left, dodging the fireballs that hit his feet and the right side of his body, and at the same time, the fire shield of his right hand was raised to block the third fireball, at this time his right hand was raised high, but the fourth fireball immediately attacked his left, and it was about to hit Youyun's left arm!
Su Mi'er almost exclaimed, and in the flash of light, You Yun held up another fire shield in his left hand and stopped the last fireball.
However, before Su Mi'er's heart fell, the fire shield in the field suddenly dissipated, and she let out a low "ah" and covered her left arm. Seeing a trace of fire in his left hand, he reacted quickly and forcibly used his right hand to cover the fire with his right hand, but his face was slightly distorted, obviously burned.
"Something isn't right with that fireball." Wang Anyuan's voice came, and Su Mier frowned slightly at him, with a suspicious look.
The opponent no longer cast the fireball, and he smiled smugly when he saw You Yun's painful expression. He charged up his right hand and said in a loud voice, "Can you still dodge now?" With that, the magic of his right hand flicked out, and the small ball of yellow flame the size of a ping-pong ball slammed into Youyun, exploding as it approached him.
"Bang!"
The ball swelled several times and exploded like a lit firecracker, emitting a scorching flame.
You Yun summoned the fire shield as early as he spoke, but he didn't dare to resist, and at the moment when the ball exploded, he held the fire shield and quickly retreated, but he didn't receive all the energy head-on.
"Woohoo!" [It's a fiery technique!] Sumiel shouted. Immediately controlling her mind, she suddenly sent a voice of her heart that would interfere with You Yun's game.
Suddenly, in my heart, the fire spell is a second-level magic. The opponent is not a first-level fire-type magician, but a second-level fire-type magician!
Wang Anyuan found it interesting: "It turned out to be a second-level magician in disguise. ”
"Woohoo!" Not really, just like you.
Su Mier looked at You Yun anxiously, what can I do, level one to two, I can't beat it properly.
You Yun is still calm on the surface, but his heart has already sunk to the bottom. No wonder the power of the fireball before suddenly increased, it turned out to be ...... The opponent has been hiding his strength. It's not that he doesn't have experience in fighting with second-level fire spirit beasts, but the magic strength of the first and second levels is very different, he can retreat under the attack of the second-level spirit beasts, and he has also been lucky to defeat one of them, but the biggest difference between people and spirit beasts is that the magic capacity of people is much greater than that of spirit beasts, and he can't afford to consume them.
The opponent's attack became more and more fierce, the power of the fireball was much more powerful than the beginning, he had to use more magic power to maintain the fire shield, there was no room to fight back, and if he continued like this, his magic power would have to bottom out.
Is this going to be defeated?
You Yun gritted his teeth and turned around to wipe another fiery technique, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. But if he can't get the elemental stone, when will he be able to advance to the second level? After this exam, Rui Jin can be promoted to the second level, and the blast, the wind has already stepped into the second level. What about him, when will he wait? When will it be ...... Ability to protect ......
It's been stuck at level 1 for too long, too long.
Thinking of this, he dodged while freeing his left hand, secretly storing a flame. Unlike the usual fireballs, this flame is the size of a ping-pong ball and has a dazzling yellow color......
"Huh!"
[No, you can't! 】
Sumiel cried out in a lost voice.
The voice of the wind suddenly sounded in his head, and You Yun's body shook suddenly, his left hand was a little unable to support it, and the flames in his palm jumped, and suddenly became hot. He secretly said that it was not good in his heart, so he suddenly exerted his strength under his feet, and ran to the side with the fire shield.
The opponent was startled by his sudden movement, but seeing that although he was running forward, he was not facing his direction, and he kept sending out fireballs in confusion. You Yun ran closer and closer, and when he was about to overtake the opponent's position, his left foot spun violently on the ground, and he forcibly changed direction and rushed straight towards the opponent, and at the same time, his left hand threw out vigorously, the fire shield opened to the maximum, and the whole person and the fire magic crashed into the opponent together!
The opponent was obviously stunned, and hurriedly threw one or two more fireballs, but saw that You Yun fearlessly resisted with a fire shield, and his speed did not decrease at all, so he had to hold up the fire shield as well-
"Bang!"
The two spherical fire shields and a shining yellow ball slammed into each other, and both of them flew upside down, falling two meters away.
Those who were watching the arena exclaimed.
Both fell to the ground.
The difference is that around You Yun's opponent, he still maintains a pale red fire shield.
"Is it over?" Someone asked.
However, no, You Yun struggled to stand up first, watching the opponent's fire shield disperse, as if he was about to slowly start smiling, but the smile was not fully stretched, because the opponent also sat up. "You're amazing." The man wiped the dust from his face and muttered.
You Yun didn't speak, his right hand stretched forward, and the fireball was thrown accurately at the other party.
"Bang."
With a slight collision, the man shook his head behind the fire shield and said, "How many more fireballs can I send, what about you?" ”
You Yun finally laughed, his voice was very low, but it clearly came into Su Mier's ears-
"This is the last one." He said, "I throw in the towel. ”
