She is a cry...
Chapter 327 The Swaying Morning Star (Thanks to the leader of the distant stars)
The golden stars fell from the night sky, decorating the entire venue, vast and magnificent, like falling into a dream.
Although the deeds of the prince have been passed down to this day and exist in countless records, out of respect for the respected person, her name is generally not directly said unless it is a formal and solemn occasion. When it comes to the formal occasions where it is applicable, it is generally when the supreme leader of the Federal Parliament of all generations takes the oath of office.
Of course, apart from such grand and formal occasions, ordinary people can also recite her name, that is, the prayers in the scriptures and canons that have been circulated in the world.
The format of the prayers was stipulated by the sages of all generations. Although the prince's name can be called, it cannot be extracted from the context and used alone. In other words, if you want to say this name, you must recite the entire prayer, and you cannot arbitrarily intercept, modify, or change the meaning.
This is to prevent someone from using her name to promote various cults mixed with private ideas. For such behavior, all countries have relevant legal restrictions.
After Lei Lisa Academy took the stage, the pale golden light gradually dissipated, and the entire venue dimmed again. Then dots of fluorescent blue halos appeared on the ground, spreading like ripples of raindrops falling on the water.
These fluorescent blue halos rose up, illuminating the venue like fluorescent jellyfish of varying sizes, and the people in the venue were like being at the bottom of the sea. Then the halos of the fluorescent jellyfish dispersed, revealing one by one the students wearing transparent glass coats. They held transparent parasols with flowing blue light, and fell leisurely from the sky, then turned into dark blue light spots and swam in the venue. Finally, they gathered together, and a circuit board-like textured halo appeared under their feet, spreading and covering the venue.
Six of them occupied the center, six people and six sides, with a shining texture in the middle, and a virtual figure emerged from it, and then condensed into a solid entity.
"One heart of truth, brilliant crystal lattice."
Compared with the oaths of other academies, the oath of Crystal Lattice Academy is particularly cold, as if it has stripped away the fanatical and useless emotions, like an eternally calm and rational AI.
After the appearance of Crystal Grid Academy, the blue lines covering the ground dissipated, and the venue fell silent again.
The silence that lasted for more than ten seconds surprised and puzzled the audience, but when someone shouted, they turned their eyes to the sky.
In the distant sky ten thousand meters high, golden dots of light swayed down, as if they had crossed countless time and barriers to descend. They swayed and trembled, then passed through the clouds, and finally broke through the sky above the venue.
Time suddenly slowed down at this moment, and the swaying dots of light revealed the figures inside. These girls were wearing transparent golden cicada wings fluttering behind them, like fairies from the land of gold, beautiful and stunning, and every strand of hair and the slightly blinking eyelashes under their eyes were so clear and shocking.
In this way, until three seconds later, the flow of time returned to normal. These light spots gathered on the golden stage, half-knelt on the ground and stood up, stepping on the honeycomb-like hexagonal grids, and then Xia Kui, the leader, waved her baton, and golden light sand threads floated by. The rows of fan-shaped steps behind her lit up, and the leaders of the bees in white dresses and violins pulled their bows, and the vast music score sounded at this moment.
Then Xia Kui stepped aside and made way with several other girls with bee wings on their backs, revealing the girl standing in the middle, wearing a unique fiery red dress. The
girl who was burning like fire opened her eyes, and her fingertips brushed the seven-stringed lyre in her arms. The magnificent stage spread throughout the venue, countless red lotuses bloomed, and the whole venue was boiling.
"Pulin Keke!"
"Pulin Keke!"
"Pulin Keke!"
The enthusiastic screams and cheers lit up the night sky, and the surging popularity spread. Even if they were several kilometers away, they could hear the resounding calls.
The lights swayed, and the music flew up, and it took a long time to dissipate.
The lights in the venue were turned off again, and dimmed. Just when everyone was looking forward to what kind of scene they would see this time, a gentle violin sounded, lonely and sad, telling a story that spanned time.
There were sincere emotions, youthful immaturity, past regrets, missed figures, and people who would never meet again.
The only pale light shone, and wooden boxes were piled up on the high platform. The lonely girl stood with her eyes slightly closed, her eyelashes trembling, which made people feel pity.
Just as everyone slowly quieted down and listened to every detail and scale in the music, the sound of the violin changed, from the initial fragility and sadness to gradually firmness, as if she had made up her mind.
Then, blue dots of light appeared in the venue. They sang in unison, and as the music moved and rose and fell, they became brighter and brighter. The sound of the chorus became increasingly louder from the beginning, until the light pillars shone down one by one, and the students in the light pillars grew black wings behind them, and slowly rose under the cold moonlight.
These "angels" with black wings hovered in the night sky, forming flawless layers of circles, like heaven hanging upside down.
The girl in the white dress playing the violin in the center of the venue stopped abruptly when the music reached its climax. The violin in her hand disappeared, and then the black angels hovering in the sky also fell together, pounced on the only pure white on the ground.
The angels' black wings passed by, and the piled wooden box platform was instantly shattered. Then they surrounded the girl in the center and rose slowly. Their wings were the girl's wings. The shining members stood sideways, holding long swords wrapped with thorns, like a huge U-shape, surrounding the girl in the middle, spreading out layer by layer.
It was like a crown made of black thorns and wings, surrounding the pure white crystal in the middle.
The moonlight fell, and Tilan, who was wearing a simple white dress in the center, landed on the stage. The members behind her also descended like wings and stood behind her.
Wearing black uniforms and dark blue rose collars, the students of Edes formed a neat inverted triangle, and the only girl in a snow-white dress was in the front.
"Rose of the dark night, swaying morning star."
After the presentation of Edes Academy, the last Saint Ingo Academy appeared.
The lights in the venue turned on one by one, and the golden light spread all over the venue. Then the ground in the venue was caressed by golden waves, and a sea of flowers with golden leaves bloomed. A grand symphony sounded, and then from the various entrances below the venue, students wearing white-based gold-leaf uniforms appeared. Wherever they walked, flowers bloomed, holding flower swords.
"Golden Rose, Song of Prayer, Oath of the Holy Tree."
Without too many complicated embellishments, Saint Ingo still maintained its fearless demeanor as a king. They slowly climbed onto the high platform, with Saint Ingo students standing in two rows, until the last 12 people stepped onto the center of the stage step by step.
"It's time to start this grand stage." When all the contestants from the six academies took the stage, someone couldn't help but sigh.
"I believe they will definitely win the championship." The supporters in the audience, who had witnessed the sweat and hard work of those figures, prayed silently, hoping that the people they supported would win in the end.
"Now, I declare the competition to begin!"
No more explanation was needed, the host directly announced the start of tonight's battle.
"The first to appear is Bennett from Edes Academy, who will face Hidalgo from St. Ingo Academy."
On the stage that everyone was watching, two students stepped onto the white square marble platform and stood fifty meters apart.
"I didn't expect that they would be enemies from the beginning." The audience in the audience spoke.
"This time, the Edes Academy seems to have a different kind of perseverance, and the mental outlook is completely different from the previous two sessions."
"Come to think of it, the leader is Heshia Tilan, she's only in the second year."
"Standing in the formation is probably just to boost morale. After all, she's the most popular and influential person in Edes Academy."
On the high platform, the two held swords in one hand, each of them placed their hands on the hilt and the handle, watching each other.
Although they haven't officially fought yet, both sides know that the other is not an easy character to deal with. Bennett shined in the competition last semester, and Hidalgo is also a rising star in Saint Ingo in recent years. He has participated in the sword fighting competition in the Central Star Region many times and won good rankings.
"It's amazing, the first game is you and me." Bennett slowly pulled out the fluorescent green blade and pointed it to the ground. The blade gradually emitted faint white smoke, and the edge of the blade also showed a slight distortion.
"A brand new sword technique? It seems that you have made great progress in the past six months." Hidalgo stared at the blade with white smoke, silently pondering the origin of this unique sword technique.
He had seen it in the video last year. At that time, the Edes Academy Club used this unfamiliar sword technique to defeat the elite of Thunder Edge.
"But we, Saint Ingo, are not just standing still." He also drew his sword, and the colorless airflow surrounded the sword body, and then even spread to himself, making him slightly suspended, as if standing in the air.
"White Orchid Sword Technique·Cross Interlaced!"
"Wing Wind Sword·Air Shuttle!"
The two acted together, almost in an instant, the two crossed the distance of fifty meters and rushed towards each other, the cross-cutting blades appeared and flashed in the air, and Hidalgo also staggered his body, flashing through the separated cross blades like a virtual object.
After the first clash, a bloodstain appeared on Bennett's face, and the bloodstains flowed slowly. Although Hidalgo had no wounds, his face was pale. It was obvious that even if he dodged the attack just now, he still consumed a lot of energy.
"Not bad." Wiping the bloodstains on his face, Bennett smiled slightly excitedly, and the laughter gradually expanded until his eyes fixed and he rushed out again.
The second clash began, and this time it was different from the first cautious mutual probing. The blade in Bennett's hand was like a residual shadow and phantom light. There was almost no pause between each knife. The blade kept hitting, slashing, breaking the defense, tearing the space, and attacking at a high frequency without stopping, forcing Hidalgo into desperate situations again and again. Although Hidalgo was strong, he began to show some subtle flaws under such high pressure and rapid offensive.
Finally, the green blade slashed again, and a striking blood mark appeared on Hidalgo's body, followed by the second, the third...
When the seventh blood mark appeared, Bennett slowly stopped and slowly lowered the blade.
The golden sword in his hand fell to the ground, bounced slightly and fell again, making a crisp metallic sound.
Hidalgo slowly knelt on the ground, then lost consciousness and fell down.
"Edes Academy wins!"
The first match ended in less than two minutes of fighting. Such an unexpected result made the audience in the venue silent, and it took a long time for someone to murmur and talk.
"It's not just Bennett who is so strong. Although Hidalgo lost, the strength he showed in these two minutes is probably the best among all the contestants. If it were me, I might not even last two seconds."
"This class of Edes Academy is really not to be underestimated."
"The second match is between Luligotta from Swarm of Bees Academy and Kailanli from Crystal Grid Academy."
Two girls with completely different temperaments and styles walked onto the stage. Luligotta looked like a famous singer in a gorgeous dress, while Kailanli was wearing a large ultramarine trench coat, looking chic and capable.
After the two briefly introduced each other, the referee announced loudly.
"The competition begins!"
Then Luligotta raised the baton in her hand, and shining colored crystals appeared behind her. Then these crystals changed and spliced into a circular painting like colored glass. Then the cold wind of ice chips blew towards Kailanli, leaving a trail of upright ice skates on the ground.
"Now we can see Luligota's gorgeous performance again."
"As expected of the eldest lady of the Swarm of Bees, she fights so gracefully."
Although some people in the audience praised Luligota's graceful fighting posture, Kailanli on the opposite side was very disdainful. She shook her head casually and threw out the blue square crystal on her waist.
The blue crystal bloomed in the air, then expanded rapidly, changing rapidly like a Rubik's Cube, and finally spliced into a thick silver firearm, which was shaped like a rotating machine gun and was filled with the cold murderous aura of steel.
Holding this huge machine gun at her side, Kailanli pulled the trigger, and the magazine on the outside of the machine gun rotated, and lines of handwriting emerged.
[Dieke Luo Equation·Xuan Cang 24]
When it rotated to this line of handwriting, the barrel made a mechanical click sound, and then the muzzle fired rapidly, and blue-blazing bullets shot out one by one, breaking through the layers of air waves and going straight to Luligota's face.
When Kailanli summoned the huge silver machine gun, Luligota began to change the colored glass behind her and spliced it into a new spell.
"Illusionary colored glass·Fractal wall."
A pentagonal spike barrier formed in front of her. Soon, when the bullets poured over, this barrier with an inclined angle bounced off the blue bullets one by one, and the stage was also filled with continuous collisions and sparks.
But Luligota didn't expect that the opponent's attack was not just this one. With Kailanli's magic support and the operation of the spell, the bullets poured out by the machine gun continued. As time passed, Luligota's face became paler and paler, and her magic power was rapidly consumed. At this time, there was no time to change the spell to dodge.
Finally, with a bang, the glass that originally resisted the five-pointed star barrier turned into shattered glass and bullets and hit Luligota together, knocking her away. The decent hairstyle and the large and complicated dress instantly became messy and broken, and burned black.
"Jingge Academy wins!"
