Chapter 71



The two Falletts looked at the high-raised dragon head in horror, and unexpectedly found that they could not move their bodies.

The pressure of being stared at by the powerful creature made them unable to have any resistance at all. They could only watch helplessly as the electric cords from the dragon's mouth attacked them.

In the second before they passed out, they had only one thought in their minds.

Is this really a skill? Isn't it that the ancient beast has been resurrected?

Whether inside or outside the screen, there was silence.

It was not until the giant dragon circled and disappeared into the sky that the referee's decision came half a beat late.

"F-Fale Academy, Levi is eliminated."

"Fale Academy, Compton is eliminated."

These words broke the silence on the scene, making the originally sluggish audience seem to come alive in an instant.

"Did anyone see the dragon just now?! That was a real dragon!!"

"I thought I was dazzled! That dragon seemed to understand UR card!"

"Fuck! So cool! Really so cool! I must save this scene and play it on repeat every day!"

Almost everyone was discussing this scene excitedly, and no one cared about the next game.

In contrast, the atmosphere in the VIP room was much more solemn.

After the giant dragon appeared, except for Leus who had difficulty in moving, almost everyone in the VIP room stood up and looked at the screen in disbelief, unable to speak for a long time.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Ke slowly said, "Isn't that dragon just now... a bit... a bit like..."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Qin Ke hesitantly uttered two words, "evil spirit."

Everyone's heart was slightly shaken.

When the dragon soared into the sky, even though they were only separated by a screen, they all felt the suffocating pressure and the gaze that seemed to come from a higher-level creature.

At that moment, they all felt the same as Qin Ke, but no one said it out loud like he did.

Principal Baker shuddered, and immediately responded, "What evil spirit! General Qin, please don't talk nonsense. Everyone can see that those are auxiliary cards used by two students of Faret. We Xingmian just controlled those two auxiliary cards. If there are any evil spirits, it is Faret College's problem..."

"Baker, you!" Principal Caldwell, who was dragged in innocently, glared.

Mrs. Hollis could only make peace helplessly: "Okay, the two of you stop arguing. General Qin just said it looked like it, not that it was really an evil spirit."

With her mediation, and Qin Ke's explanation that he didn't mean that, the two who were staring at each other like black-eyed chickens calmed down.

"However, Principal Baker is really a hidden talent. If he doesn't speak, it's fine, but when he speaks, it's amazing!" Mrs. Hollis said with a complicated expression.

Baker choked.

It was really unfair. He had never seen many of the students' expressions before. He was as shocked and confused as they were!

But if he said that, no one would believe him. They might even think he was pretending.

So, he was forced to accept this scheming character.

At this time, the emotions of the student Faret, who was fighting alone, were really ups and downs.

They had just had the upper hand, but who would have thought that the situation would be reversed in an instant. He was now facing a 1V3 situation, and the pressure increased dramatically.

He barely held on for a while, but was eventually eliminated by the joint efforts of Xiao Qiong and others.

Hearing the voice of "Mosca Academy won", Gu Xingmian's knees softened and he fell to the ground and vomited.

In fact, after using the skill, his body sent out uncomfortable signals, but he was worried about affecting Xiao Qiong and the others, so he insisted until now.

The feeling that his body seemed to explode made Gu Xingmian vomit so much that tears were about to flow out.

Yu Xi Zheng Li

Eric and Nina were about to run over to celebrate with Gu Xingmian, but when they saw his uncomfortable look, they immediately became anxious.

However, the next second, a figure passed by them and held Gu Xingmian carefully in his arms.

It was not until his hands touched his body and felt his body temperature that his originally blank brain seemed to gradually have color, sound, and the ability to perceive the surroundings.

Gu Xingmian's face was pale and his skin was a little cold.

Xiao Qiong wanted to rub his palms to warm them up, but when he saw the blood on his palms, he hesitated for a moment before using his other slightly cleaner palm to gently lift up Gu Xingmian's face: "How...are you?"

Gu Xingmian gasped for a while and felt better, but with beads of sweat on his forehead.

Xiao Qiong carefully wiped it off with his fingertips. His fingers were a little rough with a thin silken hair, which made Gu Xingmian open his eyes a little uncomfortable. After seeing Xiao Qiong, he was confused for a moment, and then he reacted and asked the question he cared about most: "We... did we win?"

Xiao Qiong was about to answer when he was interrupted by the excited Eric: "We won! Xingmian, you are so amazing!" Gu

Xingmian's eyes lit up: "That's great! I thought I heard it wrong!"

"We really won!" Eric danced with joy, "You don't know, I was scared when that dragon came out! It was so handsome!"

Xiao Qiong pursed his lips, and for some reason, he suddenly felt unhappy. He leaned slightly to block Gu Xingmian's sight: "We will leave soon, do you want to go into my spiritual body to rest?"

Gu Xingmian nodded. He still felt uncomfortable now, and resting in the spiritual body would help him recover faster.

After Gu Xingmian's figure entered the spiritual body, Xiao Qiong stood up: "Let's go."

Eric swallowed subconsciously, because his brain, which was overly excited because of winning the game, suddenly became clear. Why did he feel that the boss was a little unhappy just now?

However, Eric's thoughts were quickly dispelled by other teammates who rushed up to celebrate.

After knowing that the game was won, the Mosca ward instantly went crazy. Except for a few seriously injured and unable to move, everyone else rushed to the exit to wait for them. If it weren't for their tragic injuries, they would have been thrown to the sky by other teammates.

After Mosca was announced as the winner, the audience outside the screen also had a sense of surprise and reason.

Who would have thought that Mosca College, which was the least favored before the game, actually won!

However, thinking of the ability that Mosca Academy has continuously demonstrated in this competition, they feel that it is natural for them to win.

In the VIP room, Baker excitedly hammered the table.

Although he has had such a dream countless times, he still couldn't restrain his excitement when he saw the students win the competition.

Moreover, winning 2 points in this game means that Mosca Academy will be able to enter the third round of the next game regardless of the results.

How many years have passed!

Their academy has finally broken the curse of not being able to enter the third round!

The principals of other colleges could understand Baker, but Caldwell was the only one who felt disappointed. They, Faret, did not get any points in the first round, so every game in the second round was crucial to them. If they lost this game, the pressure on them in the next game would be even greater.

Thinking of this, Caldwell hurried out to find his students.

Baker also responded: "Yes, yes, I'm just looking after you, I'll go see you too!"

In an instant, only Mrs. Hollis and Li Chengji were left in the VIP room.

The two looked at each other, nodded to each other, and their eyes were full of fighting spirit. After all,

although Mosca was difficult to beat, they didn't want to fight Faret, who was desperate.

At this time, Carlos, who had just finished watching the game, suppressed his surging emotions and walked out of the room to relax. Unexpectedly, he ran into Fu Fengye who was also out to relax.

The two captains greeted each other lightly.

Carlos smiled gently: "The game just now was very exciting, right?"

Fu Fengye raised his eyes: "Captain Carlos, what do you want to say?"

Carlos said: "I just want to express my feelings. It has been a long time since I met a card master who made me so excited. I really hope to have a good fight with Xiao Qiong in the next game."

Doesn't what he meant by this mean that they must beat Tianhe in the next game?

Fu Fengye frowned slightly and said in a cold voice: "What a coincidence, the guys in our team also think so."

"Then we can only rely on our own abilities." Carlos spread his hands, "I hope we can contribute to a wonderful game in the next game."

"Of course."

The players of Mosca Academy did not know that they have now become the favorites of the other two academies.

Almost all of them were injured and lay in the hospital to recuperate.

But they felt much more relaxed. After all, the next game was between Fakken Academy and Tianhe Academy. After they decided the winner, the loser would have to play against Faret Academy. It would not be until after these two games that it would be their turn to play the last game.

In this way, they still had a long time to rest.

Life in the hospital is boring. Their bodies cannot move, but their mouths are busy.

These days, everyone has been appreciating the heroic performances of themselves and their teammates in the game. Although they already know the results, they are still surprised by the thrilling scenes in the game.

However, the gossip master Eric is addicted to the card league and various forums on the Star Network, and soon discovered the hot topics above.

[Does anyone know what happened to Xiao Qiong and UR card underwater? Xiao Qiong later recovered his physical and mental strength. Was it really the skill of UR card? ]

[Ahhh, I want to know too! This question has troubled me for many days. The child can't sleep without knowing the answer! 】

【The league group is really getting worse every year. We didn’t even get to film such an important scene! What the hell are they doing! 】

【Does anyone know anyone at Mosca Academy? Can you ask them to ask Xiao Qiong? 】

...

Eric secretly glanced at Xiao Qiong who was lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and suddenly heard him say: "Why are you looking at me secretly?"

Eric touched his nose: "That...where is Xingmian?"

Xiao Qiong paused: "He is resting in his spiritual body, is there anything wrong?"

"Is that so..." Eric hesitated. If it was Xingmian, he would have asked directly, but facing Xiao Qiong, he was still a little timid, but the gossipy spirit overcame the fear, and he asked in a low voice, "Boss, that...what happened between you and Xingmian underwater?" When

he asked this, the other teammates put down what they were doing and pricked up their ears.

Who wouldn't be curious about this question, but no one dared to ask it directly like Eric.

Xiao Qiong was startled, and suddenly his mind thought of the warm and soft lips in the water, the clever and shy tongue tip, and...

a heat seemed to slide down his chest, and an unprecedented emotion instantly seized Xiao Qiong's heart. If he hadn't reacted in time, his spirit would have been instantly agitated.

He tried hard to suppress the numbness from his limbs and asked with a straight face: "Why are you asking this?"

Eric could hear the chill in his words, but he still pressed on: "Just... curious, didn't you recover your mental and physical strength later? I thought..."

"What did you think?"

"I thought Xingmian did something to you?" Eric asked excitedly, "Boss, just tell me the truth. Is this Xingmian's new skill? I also want to experience it..."

Before he finished speaking, he was thrown off the bed by a stream of air.

"Boss!"

Xiao Qiong coldly took back the auxiliary card in his hand and looked around at the other teammates.

The people who were still listening to the gossip with their ears pricked up, instantly retracted their gazes and did their own things seriously to show that they were not in the same group as the bold Eric.

Xiao Qiong then retracted his gaze and looked at Eric who climbed back onto the bed with a warning: "Don't mention this again, and don't ask Xingmian."

"Oh." Eric touched his sore butt and answered honestly.

Xiao Qiong breathed a sigh of relief and tried his best to ignore the panic feeling in his heart that he was out of control. He was just glad that Gu Xingmian fell asleep and didn't know what happened.

But thinking of this, he became a little worried. Since the end of the game, Gu Xingmian fell into a long sleep in his spiritual body. Although there were periods of wakefulness in the middle, they were very short.

Although Gu Xingmian said that he was fine, Xiao Qiong was still worried.

Wright once said that the God Card fell into a deep sleep either because it was injured or because its power was overdrawn, and it could only heal itself by sleeping.

Gu Xingmian was not injured, so it could only be that his power was overdrawn.

They had tried many times before, and Gu Xingmian's skills could only be used four times a day, which should be his limit. He must have risked his life to release the last skill, so he became particularly weak after the game.

Although Gu Xingmian is often careless and likes to be a little smart, he attaches great importance to his teammates.

For him, perhaps protecting them is more important than overdrawing his own body.

Xiao Qiong felt a little complicated.

He used to think that he didn't need teammates, but now, he has gradually gotten used to the feeling of fighting and struggling with his teammates, but...

he also vaguely feels that his feelings for Gu Xingmian seem to be different from those of Eric and the others.

When he thought of this problem, he felt his spirit body was a little shaken again, and he immediately stopped and let his spirit body slowly calm down so that Gu Xingmian could have a good rest.

At this moment, Gu Xingmian was lying under a starry sky.

After he accidentally mastered the skill of combining two star patterns into one, he suddenly found that he was suddenly pulled into this starry sky again.

The originally dark and deep night sky was now filled with star patterns of all sizes. In addition, the star patterns that originally did not interfere with each other were actually connected by faint silver lines, and the entire starry sky suddenly became brighter.

Countless knowledge related to star patterns emerged in Gu Xingmian's mind.

The starry sky was like a hard-working teacher, who wanted to cram all his knowledge into Gu Xingmian's mind.

If Gu Xingmian's understanding of star patterns was relatively superficial before, then after this period of study, Gu Xingmian felt that he was becoming more and more proficient in using star patterns.

The only bad thing was that the time was too short. He could only say something to Xiao Qiong in a hurry, and then went back to the starry sky to study.

The time when this starry sky appears cannot be controlled at all, and he doesn't know when it will appear next time.

Gu Xingmian studied eagerly and was unwilling to waste it.

When the starry sky disappeared, Gu Xingmian woke up in his spiritual body with a sense of loss.

Xiao Qiong could feel his movement as soon as he moved.

[How are you?]

Gu Xingmian heard the urgency in his voice, was stunned for a moment, and then said: [Nothing.]

Xiao Qiong was silent for a while, then said: [Are you hungry? I brought you a supplementary card. 】

Gu Xingmian always felt that something was wrong in his words, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he said: [Okay. ]

He came out of his spiritual body, and probably because he hadn't walked for a long time, his feet went soft, and then he fell into a familiar embrace.

This was exactly the same as when they first met.

Xiao Qiong helped him sit on the chair. Gu Xingmian looked around and found that they had actually returned to their residence. He hesitated and said: "Are you feeling better? Why aren't you in the hospital?"

Xiao Qiong sighed: "It's been a week."

Gu Xingmian was shocked: "A week?!"

He didn't even feel how long he had been in the starry sky, how could it be just a week? !

Xiao Qiong carefully looked at his face, and was relieved to see that his face had regained its former rosy complexion and looked very energetic.

But the next second, his eyes fell on Gu Xingmian's lips.

The wound on his lips had completely healed after resting in the spiritual body for some time.

But his heart seemed to have a new wound, which kept healing and growing, making him feel itchy uncontrollably, but he couldn't stop it.

His gaze stayed on him for a little too long, and Gu Xingmian moved uncomfortably, then he saw him retract his gaze in an instant and turned around to get him the auxiliary card.

Gu Xingmian held the auxiliary card, ignoring the strange emotions in his heart, and told him what happened in the starry sky.

Xiao Qiong immediately threw away his little thoughts and became serious. The two analyzed that this might be the upgrade of Gu Xingmian's skills.

However, Gu Xingmian mostly memorized the knowledge about star patterns. They would have to analyze the specific effects later.

At this point, Xiao Qiong told Gu Xingmian that during the time he was in the starry sky, Grove called him through the communicator and said that someone was checking the mysterious host who sold star patterns on the card maker forum.

Gu Xingmian suddenly became nervous: "Is Grove okay?"

"Nothing." Xiao Qiong comforted him, "I'll let him stop for the time being and stay out of the spotlight."

Gu Xingmian was still a little worried, so he called Grove's communicator.

As soon as Grove heard his voice, he heaved a sigh of relief: "My ancestor! Xiao Qiong said that you have been sleeping all the time, and I was so worried!"

Gu Xingmian comforted him for a few words before getting to the point and asking him if he knew who was checking.

Unexpectedly, Grove sneered: "You are just greedy."

Before, Grove transformed himself into a mysterious host and sold the star patterns that Gu Xingmian gave him on the card maker forum at a very low price.

This was a blessing from heaven for those card maker apprentices and independent card makers, but it was intolerable for the card maker families who had long monopolized the star patterns.

In order to protect this kind and mysterious host, all apprentice card makers and independent card makers have an unwritten rule that they will never investigate the identity of the mysterious host, nor will they tell the card maker family about this news.

At first, everyone followed it very well, but after a long time, there will always be some discordant voices.

In order to thank this mysterious host and to carry forward his spirit, most card makers took the initiative to lower the price of auxiliary cards. Although there are some who are unwilling, they can only follow the trend.

Most apprentice card makers are fine. They have suffered a lot when they were learning from their teachers. Now they are living a life that they dare not even dream of. Everyone is very satisfied.

But some independent card makers gradually began to feel unbalanced.

They worked hard for many years and almost lost a layer of skin before they learned one or two unique star patterns from their teacher. They got rid of the identity of card maker apprentices. Although they were still controlled by the card maker family, at least their lives were much better.

But now, those card maker apprentices did not suffer any hardship at all, and they could easily learn so many star patterns and stand in the same position as them.

Moreover, those stupid card maker apprentices lowered the price of auxiliary cards to such a low level that they could not earn much money after working so hard to make so many auxiliary cards. Their life was worse than before.

So some people had evil thoughts and wanted to find the mysterious owner of the building and force him to hand over the remaining star patterns so that they could divide them up.

Fortunately, someone knew the news and sent a message to the mysterious owner.

Grove was always very cautious and did not leave any clues, so they have not found him yet.

At the same time, in a house, dozens of independent card makers gathered together.

An independent card maker asked, "Hasn't the mysterious owner been found yet?"

The expressions of other independent card makers were not very good either, "He is too cautious. Every time he finds a clue, it will be broken soon and he can't be found at all..."

"That's right! I now suspect that someone has tipped him off, otherwise how could he react so quickly?"

"Are you saying there is a traitor among us?!"

"Why are you so excited, I didn't say it was you!"

Seeing that several people were about to quarrel, the leading card maker said angrily, "Shut up!"

After finally calming down, someone said, "This mysterious owner of the building has not appeared at all now, and there is no way to find him..."

"Do you think he has no other star patterns in his hand?"

Everyone fell silent.

"We've spent so much money and effort, it can't be wasted, right?"

Finally, everyone looked at the leading card maker, who was the one who brought everyone together.

He said with some annoyance: "Let's look for someone for a while."

"What if we still can't find someone?" someone asked.

He glanced at the person and said coldly: "Since we can't get it, we can't let others get it."
