Chapter 347 Wen Renge's Instinct
"Cut down trees?" Xu was a little confused.
"La is now trapped in a tree." Yu Cang said, "Alright, don't run around for the next few days. This area is very unusual. Even the time and space seal may not be able to protect you two."
"We understand." Sora lowered his head.
After receiving the signal from Yu Cang, they immediately returned without hesitation, so they did not see the giant sun tree. At this time, they were also confused by what Yu Cang said.
Stuck in a tree?
What tree can trap me?
However, although he was doubtful, Yu Cang had already promised to rescue people in seven days, so Kong temporarily put his mind at ease.
No one could be more worried about La's current condition than him.
In Kong's heart, La is like a mentor or a father, who enlightens him, shapes his personality, and makes him a real life rather than a walking corpse.
But he also knew that now, he was loyal to Yu Cang. If Yu Cang was unwilling to let them get close to that world... he didn't know what to do then.
Fortunately, the scholar still makes people feel safe as usual.
Although he realized from Yu Cang's words that La seemed to be in danger, and emotionally he definitely hoped that Yu Cang would rescue him as soon as possible, but rationally told Kong that someone like the scholar must have a deeper understanding of the Starry Sky Vision than himself.
Since he chose seven days later, that must be the best time for rescue.
Sora is very trusting.
On the side, Xu didn’t have so many fantasies. He only knew that the scholar had made a promise. Great!
The scholar kept his word, and they will be able to see him again in seven days!
So, I followed Kong You's example and bowed as well.
"...Alright, I've told you so many times, no need to go through all this fake formalities."
Yu Cang smiled and shook his head.
The starry sky is bright in the distance, and the outline of the source star world is looming.
There, the sun has turned black, so it is not conspicuous in the starry sky. If you don’t look carefully, it is easy to overlook it.
Across the distant starry sky, Yu Cang saw the giant tree.
Above it, La seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, and the flames near him also dimmed a lot. The black area was getting closer and closer to him. Perhaps when the flames were completely extinguished, La's rhythmic body would merge with Huang.
…
the next day.
Wang Zhi I woke up from my sleep and looked at the time - six fifty-eight in the morning.
He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the sleeping time after the [Personal Expedition] was not as long as expected.
Last night, he maintained the scorching Eye of Ra, and [Personal Expedition] was activated for a long time. He was very afraid that he would not wake up today.
After all, today is the day of the exchange competition. Although Gu Jieshuang will replace him, it would not be appropriate for him to oversleep and miss the game.
I stood up and looked at my real body lying on the bed.
Well... just leave your body in the hotel.
Otherwise, he might have to find a wheelchair and push himself... This doesn't seem to have any effect except looking pretentious.
Anyway, as long as I set the opacity to the highest, there will be no difference between me and myself - as long as I don't fight.
He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers lightly, and immediately the ancient costume on his body turned into a fitted casual outfit. He went out and hung a "Do Not Disturb" sign at the door. Yu Cang then left and went to the hotel's buffet restaurant to solve the problem of breakfast.
…
"Boss..." Gu Jieshuang sat across from Yu Cang's desk, staring at Yu Cang's face without blinking, "Do you feel anything about this king self of yours?"
"Hmm?" Yu Cang swallowed the fried dough stick in his mouth.
This hotel is located within Mudu University. The guests it usually receives are either professors or famous soul card masters, but the food in the hotel restaurant is quite down-to-earth, with everything from fried dough sticks to soy milk.
I have to say, it’s really delicious.
Sitting in this high-end restaurant and eating fried dough sticks has a unique flavor.
Facing Gu Jieshuang's question, Yu Cang glanced at his hands, blinked, and said, "I don't have a sense of touch. Wang Zhi, I can see, hear, smell, and have a basic sense of balance, but other senses don't exist."
"I see."
"What do you want to do?"
"No~" Gu Jieshuang lowered his head. "Boss... not feeling pain is an advantage, but for a master, it's not necessarily a good thing. If you want to fight with my King's Self, you'd better be careful."
"Yeah... I understand."
"Let's go later." Gu Jieshuang smiled gently, "Today, I will fight for you~"
…
arena
The two members of the Fighting Club met in the audience.
Leaving aside some of the formalities and pleasantries, after meeting, we quickly got down to business.
There are nine people in Mudu's combat club, so there needs to be one more person. However, today's exchanges are not all one-on-one. Teacher Qin and his team plan to follow the competition system of the college league and arrange team battles and doubles duels.
As for the normal single-player duel... it was left to the top two people in their respective combat clubs, Wen Ren Ge and Yu Cang!
tread.
Wen Renge walked into the arena and sighed.
The single-player duel event was the first to take place, and as the second in the club, he was the first to appear.
To be honest... it's embarrassing.
How could the president of the combat club be the first to appear?
Besides, he is also difficult to deal with.
He wasn't conceited, but to be fair, he didn't think the opponent's second place player would have any chance of winning against him.
At that time... if I crush them, it will be a loss of face. If I let them win... it will be even more difficult.
He has a hard time doing both.
How abominable.
At this time, a figure came up from the opposite side and stood still at a distance.
"...Why are you my opponent?" Mu Tang stood in front of Wen Ren Ge with dead eyes.
Judging from his expression, he is definitely feeling worse than death.
"I don't want to either." Wen Ren Ge sighed.
"...I know I can't beat you, but aren't you looking down on me by saying that?" Mu Tang's mouth twitched.
"Sorry." Wen Ren Ge quickly showed a harmless smile.
bite!
The soul card above his head made a crisp sound, and the silent round had begun!
"I'll do my best." Mu Tang pulled out a soul card. "Don't say I didn't warn you. I've fought President Meng many times, and my win rate isn't zero... Watch out—I'm activating the spell card: Morning Frost and Dew!"
Buzz!
A soul card phantom flipped open in front of Mu Tang, and countless cold air overflowed from it and fell to the ground, forming four small human figures.
"This Soul Card allows me to summon four Frost Dew Elementals on the field." Mu Tang narrowed his eyes, "Then, place a Soul Card, and that's it—Come on, let me see what the president of Gudu University is capable of."
"Frost and dew element?" Wen Ren Ge frowned slightly.
It’s not because this card is too strong, but because it’s a little too weak.
Frost and dew elements are only at the third level in the star-level system, which is fine, but their bodies are also incredibly fragile. If you don't take care of them, they will turn into dew and dissipate after a while.
If a summoned beast of this quality is used as a sacrifice for a higher-level summon, there will be concerns about contaminating the sacrifice.
That soul card is not a new card. It has been around for a long time, but basically no one uses it.
...What's going on?
The second in the Fighting Club can’t be this weak... Can such a person fight against Lu Zihe?
However, although he was confused, Wen Ren Ge did not let his guard down.
There must be something fishy about the card that was covered at the end.
I can't use my full strength, otherwise it would be a bit disrespectful to others. Besides, it's still early in the league, so it's not a good idea to expose my full strength now.
Hmm...got it.
Didn’t Yu Cang always want him to use that soul card? His control over that soul card is still very weak now, so it’s just right, so he can use it... Anyway, just think of it as giving the opponent a tube of soul energy.
Thinking of this, he immediately waved his hand: "I summon: Wenren Qisha!"
Bang!
The gray soul card shattered beside him, and a thin figure stepped into the world under the starlight.
His eyes were tightly closed, his robe fluttered in the wind, and in his hand he held a long, thin knife, the blade of which was full of pits and dents, as if it would break at any moment.
After that, Wen Ren Ge did not make any progress on this soul card.
Now, Wenren Qisha has reached the fourth level. This is the result of him slightly letting go of his intuition - the fourth level can be used for combat.
well.
Wen Renge sighed silently in his heart.
If he really wanted to, he could also leave the battle to his instincts, but that would make him feel nauseous, which would often weaken his fighting ability... But today, perhaps actively entering this nauseous state would make his letting go seem less obvious.
Across from him, Mu Tang frowned slightly. "Level 4? He used up a whole tube of Soul Energy? The president of the Battle Club uses this kind of Soul Card?"
"The one you summoned is also level three."
"...Haha." Mu Tang smiled wryly, "Yu Cang is your member. You should know exactly what they are capable of."
When Wen Renge heard the name Yu Cang, his originally indifferent heart sank slightly.
Clear about what?
Anything related to Yu Cang should not be underestimated.
He has a deep understanding of this.
Before he could figure out what this meant, the soul card in the sky lit up again.
The silent round ends!
Mu Tang immediately waved his hand and threw out a soul card: "I summon: Snow Mountain Saint!"
Bang!
The soul card shattered, and a girl in plain clothes walked out of the soul card while praying.
Level five!
Summoning this soul card does not require consuming all of Mu Tang's soul energy, so he still has room to operate.
Immediately, he threw out another Soul Card: "I use the Snow Mountain Saint and Frost Dew Element as materials, Synchro Summon: Snow Mountain Saint - Qixue!"
Wen Renge's eyes widened slightly.
It turns out to be synchronization?
Buzz!
There was a flash of light, and one of the frost and dew elements turned into a green halo and flew into the body of the Snow Mountain Saint. Suddenly, a gust of wind and snow rose from the air. When it dissipated, a woman with a face similar to the Snow Mountain Saint, but with a more transcendent temperament and dress, appeared in the cold wind.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a piece of ice blue, like a gem.
5+3, eighth-level synchro summoned beast!
"broken."
When I heard Ren Ge, my heart sank a little.
Level eight is already a very powerful summoned beast. It seems that the other party is not in vain. If you don’t take it seriously, you might be in trouble.
Immediately, he waved his hand and said, "I activate: Holy Breath!"
Buzz!
The light enveloped Wenren Ge. At the same time, a glow inexplicably rose from the body of Wenren Qisha behind him. The white flame burned brightly and spread to the blade.
Mu Tang raised his brows slightly: "Use it on yourself?"
He naturally knew what kind of soul card Holy Breath was. If he used it on himself...wasn't he afraid of the side effects?
However, since Wen Renge had already used it, there was no time to think about it during the battle. He waved his hand and said, "Saintess, activate [Pray for Snow]! Sacrifice three frost elementals to summon the Saintess' Ice Staff!"
After the order was given, the Saint raised her head slightly, opened her mouth, and uttered a melodious chant: "Ah~"
The chanting was quite textured. In this song, the remaining three frost and dew elements turned into wind and snow, fell into the hands of the saint, and transformed into a two-meter-high, crystal clear ice staff of the saint.
Then, the saint pointed her ice staff forward, and a sound as if the ice was cracking suddenly spread, and countless ice spikes came towards Wen Ren Ge!
The overwhelming attacks seemed to have blocked all of Wen Ren Ge's escape routes, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Why do you feel... okay?
To be honest, this eighth-level summoned beast, in terms of power and attack strength, was quite different from what he had imagined.
A bit...weak.
Ice cones were coming from the sky, but Wen Ren Ge still had time to think about what went wrong.
Ah, yes. He knew.
It’s all Yu Cang’s fault.
Wen Renge sighed softly.
The next second, countless ice cones fell to the ground with a bang, but a ray of light bloomed at this time. At this time, Wenren Singer had no sword and could only punch continuously. A strong and fierce breath bloomed in him, and he forcibly opened a safe path.
Indeed, very weak.
He thought in his heart - when he saw the other party synchronized an eighth-level, Wen Renge's first thought was Yu Cang's various eighth-level dragons, and the ridiculously powerful sixth-level Cangyan Junlin Dragon.
However, not to mention that the dragon clan itself has strong combat power, the dragon clan in Yu Cang's hands has even more outstanding combat power, which caused Wen Ren Ge to almost forget what level a normal eighth-level summoned beast is.
Looking up, the Snow Girl's attack is still continuing. In terms of attack range and sustained suppression, this guy is indeed at an epic level, but there is always an upper limit to the attack strength... This upper limit can only be said to be a back-and-forth fight with him now.
So……
Wen Renge immediately took out a soul card.
Now he only used a Wenren Qisha card and a spell card, and his mental pressure was infinitely close to zero!
"I activate: Evil Spirit Possession!"
Buzz!
Thick black air flickered on the bodies of Wenren Ge and Wenren Qisha. Two completely opposite forces exploded in his mind. The two kinds of self-restraint devoured each other, and neither of them gave in. However, Wenren Ge's will was mixed in, trying to reconcile the two forces.
However, now that there is no Trace of Swallowing Void, these powers have no outlet and most of them can only be wasted.
But... Wenren Qisha can handle these forces!
He can copy Wen Renge's state. Now, the two energies exist in his body at the same time! As a summoned beast, he can use these powers!
"Okay, use instinct, use instinct..."
Amidst the sky full of ice cones, Wen Ren Ge slowly closed his eyes.
There was no other way. If he wanted to rely on his instincts, he had to block his abilities, which was quite difficult for him to do now.
"So troublesome... Instinct, instinct... Hiss, this disgusting feeling, yes, that's it!"
open eyes!
Wenren Qisha's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened!
The next second, a torrential glow and evil energy exploded. Without any hesitation, Wenren Qisha raised his knife and chopped it down. A sharp edge was cut out and swept across the entire arena in the blink of an eye!
clang!
The sound of metal vibration exploded right next to Mu Tang's ears. His dead fish eyes opened as wide as possible for a moment, and he felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head!
What is that?
Mu Tang lowered his head and found a slash passing by his feet...but it didn't hit anything.
"Is this off... No, this feeling, why do I feel like if I hit the target, the outcome will be decided? How is that possible!"
…
In the audience.
Mu Long frowned.
This kind of power...did that kid hold back? Otherwise, if he struck hard, even if he couldn't break the duel shield, the Saint would definitely be lost.
Alas... As expected of the former number one in the combat club, such combat power is terrifying.
He glanced at Qin Yueran next to him and said with a sigh, "You kid... you finally got a treasure this year. Not to mention Yu Cang, Wen Renge is also terrifyingly strong."
"Hey, no, no." Qin Yueran tried to suppress the corner of his mouth. "Monsters appear every year... Didn't you have a few little monsters in your sophomore year too?"
After hearing this, Mu Long's expression finally relaxed a little.
"Hmph...that's right. To be honest, in the sophomore class, we went there with the goal of becoming the next champion."
"Hahaha..." Qin Yueran burst into laughter, not knowing what he was thinking about.
…
On stage
Wen Ren Ge breathed a sigh of relief.
This knife was not chopped off on purpose... Wenren Qisha needed to use instinct to control it, and it was a rare thing to hit the target.
The current situation...it seems that if we want to win, we still need to go deeper.
Hiss, come on then, it’s just right, a rare opportunity for experimentation.
Wen Ren Ge tried his best to relax his mind, suppressing all desires to control his body and releasing his "instincts" as much as possible.
"It's a bit...uncomfortable..."
…
Plop.
From Mu Tang's perspective, Wen Ren Ge suddenly seemed to have lost all his strength and lay on the ground with his eyes closed.
He was stupid.
ah?
What is this for?
They were dueling, and you fell asleep?
Mu Tang felt a surge of inexplicable anger in his heart, and just as he was about to say something, a dangerous aura enveloped him. The words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them at all.
When he looked up, he found that... Wenren Qisha was staring at him... It was laughing!
Hey, hey, hey... You're just a summoned beast, what's with that expression!
How could there be murderous intent?
Mu Tang subconsciously took a step back, and at this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Wenren Qisha moved, and Wenren Ge, who was lying on the ground, moved with him. Wenren Ge seemed to have no bones, and "floated" from the ground like a ghost. Wenren Qisha followed his shape, and his long sword flashed with a cold light. In just a blink of an eye, his speed had reached the extreme!
But despite their speed, in Mutang's eyes, their movements were still very, very... perfect? Elegant? Mutang didn't know how to describe it.
It was as if two dancers were passing through numerous shadows, their figures intertwined and approaching!
No! You're going to lose!
Mu Tang suddenly came back to his senses. He opened the cover behind him, and suddenly a solid layer of ice rose from the ground, trying to freeze his body to avoid the damage. However, before the ice was completely frozen, Wenren Qisha's blade and Wenren Ge's evil breath had already shattered his duel shield.
Bang!
The duel shield shattered within the ice, and the outcome was decided.
"Ah? Ha, ha..." Wen Ren Ge suddenly came back to his senses.
This feeling is so uncomfortable... My consciousness sinks into darkness, just like drowning and suffocating.
He only lasted a short while before he had to call it a day.
Forget it, let him do it himself. No need to deal with these empty things. Instinct and the like are obviously not suitable for him.
Apart from anything else, instinct cannot control the conflicting energies in his body. It would be bad if something goes wrong again, because in the end he will be the one who suffers.
"The duel is over, the winner is Wen Ren Ge!"
"It's your bad luck. I want to be serious... huh?" Wen Ren Ge was stunned.
What the hell…he won?
The opponent is so weak? He can't even beat his instincts?
Well... never mind, it's good to win.
He quickly calmed his mind and tried to regulate the alien energy in his body, but the scene he perceived made him speechless.
The two energies and self-respect actually flowed in an orderly manner in his body, without affecting or contradicting each other, but they burst out with powerful power in the flow, filling his limbs and bones.
Instead of causing him pain, the terrifying power gave him a warm feeling, just like soaking in a hot spring.
"Hiss..." Wen Ren Ge took a breath of cold air.
how so?
Bang!
The ice broke and Mutang emerged from it.
He touched his neck... Just now, the blade passed through his neck through the duel shield, and he could even feel the temperature of the blade.
It’s really... scary.
Although he was stunned for a moment, he immediately activated the card. It didn't take long for "Snow Mountain Freeze" to protect him. In those few tenths of a second, he was killed instantly...
Instead of protecting itself, the ice cube became its own coffin, which was quite ironic.
Mutang took a deep breath.
"As expected of the president of the Ancient Capital Fighting Club, I lost, and I accept it wholeheartedly."
After sighing, Mu Tang turned and left.
Wenren Ge: ???
What the hell.
…
In the audience
"So fast!" Meng Ran couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "As expected of Wen Ren Ge!... It's a pity that I can't fight him in a duel."
He turned his head again and looked at Wang Zhiwo who was a few seats away. "You can beat him, you must be very strong... Damn, how come other than this kind of thing, two strong men can't fight each other! What a pity, such a pity!"
Wang Zhiwu did not comment: "Don't rush it, it's a pity."
"how?"
"Next, it's your turn." Yu Cang smiled gently, "Don't blame me for not warning you, you may not win."
Crash!
Beside Wang Zhiwo, Gu Jieshuang stood up with a calm look in her eyes, but it made Meng Ran feel an inexplicable chill.
"Oh? Really?" Meng Ran couldn't help but smile. He pinched his wrist and said, "If you say so, then..."
He was about to stand up when Qin Yueran and Mu Long suddenly appeared.
"Wait a minute, there was a small accident." Mu Long looked strange.
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"Well... the Public Security Bureau has sent a message saying they'd like to borrow members of our Combat Club to assist in investigating a case." Qin Yueran said with a smile, "The time... is now. So, the exchange will be temporarily canceled, or... we can continue at a different venue."
