Chapter 86: The Battle of Offense and Defense Begins
“Mo Qingting? I heard that people in the Vermilion Bird Empire like to put their surname in front, and it’s usually just one character. It really is an interesting country.”
“Not to mention, I met a Vermilion Bird person last time, and their clothing is really different from ours, just like those acting on television.”
“But the Vermilion Bird Empire is known for its etiquette. I don’t know about others, but every Vermilion Bird person I’ve met has been very friendly and warm.”
The whispers from the audience naturally reached Mo Qingting’s ears, but fortunately, they were mostly positive comments. After all, she was a Vermilion Bird person, and if anyone spoke ill of the empire, she would naturally be very annoyed. Of course, the absence of negative comments also indirectly reflected the overall quality of the Vermilion Bird people.
“Of course, I won’t let time pass by in vain,” Charles briskly walked to the huge hourglass and shouted.
“So, are you two ladies ready? You have only sixty seconds.”
Silence.
Both sides were fully focused, and naturally, Charles didn’t need them to actually respond. Of course, silence was also a kind of implicit answer.
“Alright, then, the seventeenth match begins!!”
Roars of encouragement erupted from the audience, mostly cheering for Yuehai! Although Mo Qingting was also slender and graceful, her martial artist physique was enough to make people’s mouths water. However, if compared directly to Yuehai, she would be left far behind.
For a martial artist, the most important thing was focus, fully unleashing the limits of the body and combat energy, finding the opponent’s weaknesses, and defeating them in one fell swoop!
The girl in front of her was named Yuehai, and Mo Qingting’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her feet already moving!
Boom!
If Calibi’s movements were as swift as a black panther, then Mo Qingting’s were as effortless as a wildcat! Despite moving forward incessantly, her feet made no sound. Seeing this, Yuehai’s pupils suddenly contracted. She swiftly employed a speed-doubling technique, using some footwork skills to dodge and weave past Mo Qingting’s probing attacks.
“This person…” Yuehai furrowed her brow tightly, even Tyr in the audience couldn’t help but frown. It wasn’t that she couldn’t multitask, but the danger of the previous exchange was such that even a slight distraction could lead to her demise.
The opponent seemed to be just using agile and special footwork to dash, but the feeling it gave Yuehai was not like facing a person, but rather like facing an impending tsunami after the ebb tide! This feeling, it seemed to remind her of someone… Yuehai couldn’t help but mutter.
Mo Qingting responded with indifference. Although she was somewhat surprised by the opponent’s sharpness, it was nothing significant. The opponent’s unique magic was of the healing type, so her advantage in this match was significant. However, there were still some lingering concerns. Mo Qingting recalled the opponent’s sudden use of the speed-doubling technique to shift her position earlier, leaving her with an indescribable sense of discord.
As a martial artist, they would always counter unknown dangers with aggression! If it’s unknown? Then hit until it’s exposed!
Footwork, Flowing Heart Water!
Mo Qingting’s momentum suddenly changed, while Yuehai immediately retreated, as if she foresaw it. She quickly cast several crystal shield spells around herself.
She didn’t have time to chant the Level Two Fortress spell! Yuehai gritted her teeth inwardly, retreating even faster.
And the next moment, Mo Qingting left only a blur in her place. By the time the audience realized it, Yuehai had already been sent flying with a punch!
Nicholas in the audience nodded inwardly. Yuehai’s sense of danger was very acute. If she hadn’t quickly retreated half a second before Mo Qingting launched her footwork and cast several crystal shield spells in an instant, the situation would have been irreparable.
On the stage, Yuehai once again used crystal shield magic to counteract the impact of the fall. With a slight adjustment of her footing, she landed steadily on the ground.
No, this won’t do! If things continue like this, I’ll only end up falling behind! Yuehai’s left hand trembled slightly. The shockwaves emitted by the opponent’s punch just now had caused her hand to be briefly paralyzed.
Being a martial artist is truly a terrifying profession… I don’t care anymore! Instead of just defending like this and ultimately being defeated, I might as well show you what I’ve got!
With a firm resolve, Yuehai’s footing suddenly became unpredictable and strange. Mo Qingting had intended to press the attack, but was taken aback by Yuehai’s footwork.
Although the first fold of the Thousand Flexibilities Technique hadn’t been completely mastered yet, Yuehai managed a brief adaptation. She didn’t have time to gauge the opponent’s reaction. Her mouth continued to chant incantations, while her footsteps irregularly shifted. The advantage of multitasking was evident at this moment.
As time advanced by another two seconds, Mo Qingting was just about to seize the opportunity to attack, but Yuehai’s eyes suddenly lit up!
“It’s done!”
Yuehai pointed her palm towards Mo Qingting, and a surge of heat suddenly spun in the air, coalescing.
Level Two Magic, Fireball Barrage!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Four fireballs, several times larger than the usual Fireball spell, shot out from in front of Yuehai like arrows released from a bow!
“!” Mo Qingting clearly hadn’t expected that a mere Level Two apprentice could unleash Level Three magic. However, what she didn’t know was that Yuehai possessed a fiery constitution with a seventy percent affinity for the fire element, allowing her to achieve a terrifying fifty percent amplification in fire attribute magic! With relatively low consumption, she could unleash the power equivalent to Level Three magic using Level Two spells!
