Chapter 451 Ah, Me?
Semifinal Game 2
Duan Feng vs Wu Chen!
The moment the two of them walked into the protective shield, the air seemed to have become heavy.
They walked to the center of the venue in silence, shook hands, and parted without anyone speaking.
Then, in silence, they arrived at the two ends of the arena.
…
After beating Wen Ren Ge, Yu Cang sat down in the waiting area between the first and second layers of protective shields.
Once Wu Chen and Duan Feng decide the winner, the final will begin immediately. There is no need to go back to the audience seats during this time. You can just wait here.
At this moment, he looked at the scene inside the protective shield and silently adjusted his breathing... By the way, he also took this time to carefully observe his next opponent.
"Come to think of it, before coming here, Aqiu asked me to defeat Duan Feng again..." Yu Cang couldn't help but smile.
This kid Duan Feng just didn't lose badly enough.
He clearly possessed the most outstanding talent in the entire Yan Kingdom, but he abandoned it and isolated himself just because of the opinions of outsiders. Although Duan Feng is indeed very strong now, he is so incomplete that he cannot make his own way.
If I use the same talent as Di Changan, will I become a legend like Di Changan?
Don't even think about it, how is that possible?
Di Changan himself said that he was not sure he could train Duan Feng to be another him.
Even if Duan Feng completely relies on his companion soul, even if he completely learns all the systems invented by Yu Cang, he can only become a stronger version of himself.
Unfortunately, Duan Feng himself did not realize this... After all, even if he only relied on what he created on his own, it was enough to surpass his peers.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang's eyes moved slightly.
Aqiu places his hope on defeating Duan Feng again so that he can realize his own shortcomings and accept his whole self.
But Yu Cang felt that even if he hit Duan Feng again, it would probably be quite serious.
After all... Yu Cang is probably what Duan Feng imagined himself to be... He has walked a unique path relying solely on his own things. If he defeats him, maybe it will make him more confident in his own path.
According to Yu Cang, the easiest way is to let Wu Chen defeat Duan Feng severely.
However, based on their current performance... it will be difficult for Wu Chen to win.
Unless Wu Chen has any other backup plan.
…
On the court
Silent Round has begun
Duan Feng didn't waste any time and just waved his hand to summon the Chaos Dragon Egg.
Wu Chen didn't seem to be in a hurry to use the Soul Card. He stared at Duan Feng in silence for a long time, then suddenly said, "It seems it's inevitable."
Duan Feng's expression changed slightly.
What?
Why did he suddenly start talking nonsense?
He didn't understand, so he kept silent and pretended to be an expert.
Wu Chen continued, "I heard that you possess the same talent as the mythical Emperor Chang'an."
“…”
This statement hit the nail on the head.
Duan Feng's expression didn't change much, except that his eyes narrowed slightly, and the aura around him seemed to become a little duller in an instant.
But Wu Chen seemed to be unaware of it.
"You know, I'm a mixed-blood—my bloodline is Chilong, so I can draw on some of the power of a true dragon with the help of true blood." Wu Chen looked at Duan Feng, "Duan Feng, what do you think is the possibility that you have the bloodline of 'Emperor Chang'an'?"
Duan Feng took a deep breath.
You kid... I don't want to pay attention to you, why are your words getting more and more excessive!
The previous part is fine, but what you said... are you saying that you have such strong talent because you are a descendant of mythology?
Bloodline? Ridiculous, the Yan people never talk about bloodline!
And the reason why Wu Chen said this...naturally he had his reasons.
Emperor Chang'an had a spouse and descendants, but he did not pass on the surname "Emperor".
He did not like the existence of a family that was above everything else in the country he founded.
His descendants have gone through several generations and spread out over the past thousand years, and have long since disappeared into various parts of Yan State. Although theoretically there must be many descendants, no one knows where they are.
Di Chang'an was very satisfied with the current situation - Yan Country was his proudest work, and his love for Yan Country even surpassed his own mythical soul card. As long as his bloodline could be spread into Yan Country, it didn't matter whether he had the surname "Di" or not.
As Duan Feng possesses the talent of Emperor Chang'an, it is very likely that he has some blood relationship with Emperor Chang'an.
Duan Feng himself knew this possibility, but he did not admit it - the effect of bloodline on humans was not as great as that on spiritual beasts. He preferred that others talk about him and praise what he had done and created, rather than his bloodline or talent.
Wu Chen's meaningless words hit Duan Feng's sore spot exactly!
"Wu Chen, right?" Duan Feng laughed in anger. "Use your soul card—and then, drown with your bloodline!"
Wu Chen raised his brows slightly.
However, he did not use any soul cards.
"...I choose to skip the silent round."
"Okay." Duan Feng didn't care.
It doesn’t matter whether you are learning from Yu Cang or looking down on yourself.
From the moment you met me, your journey in the college league ended here!
Click!
Duan Feng waved his hand, and the dragon power around him fluctuated like a burning flame, and four soul cards were thrown out at the same time!
The Chaos Dragon Egg behind him was shaking continuously and the Chaos Light was surging wildly. The two scaly-crowned dragons turned into light the moment they appeared on the stage. The upper summons and advance sacrifices happened almost at the same time. The audience only felt that the light on the field suddenly dimmed for a moment, and then, the two ninth-order dragons descended in a shocking manner!
Faced with such power, Wu Chen couldn't help but look solemn.
Duan Feng is very strong, even he has to deal with it with all his strength.
The reason for skipping the silent round is also simple.
Congeal!
Wu Chen's pupils suddenly contracted and turned into tiger pupils. Metallic scales grew densely on his body, his hair grew longer and sharper, and his already tall body expanded further. A ferocious aura burst out from his body. He lowered his body and a low roar rolled out of his throat!
Half-spiritual beast transformation!
This was an extremely stressful state for him, and it started right after the battle began. Moreover, Wu Chen's current state was obviously closer to a beast than a human than the last time he fought Meng Ran!
In this state, rare quality equipment soul cards are no different from tree branches, so there is no need for silent rounds, just start fighting directly!
The silent round ends now!
Buzz!
Wu Chen's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and the ground under his feet was kicked out with dense spider web cracks. With a loud bang, Wu Chen's punch almost crossed a distance of 100 meters and went straight to Duan Feng!
And it was naturally impossible for Duan Feng to be hit so easily.
He stared at Wu Chen intently, and when his fist was about to reach him within a dozen meters, he suddenly opened his mouth and released the black and white dragon breath that had been brewing for a long time.
Critical dragon breath!
This distance is quite extreme. With Wu Chen's speed, it would probably only take a few tenths of a second to hit Duan Feng. At the same time, such an extreme distance also means that it would be extremely difficult for Wu Chen to avoid the dragon's breath!
Judging from the current attack power of the two, no matter who hits the target, the outcome will be almost decided.
However--
Boom!!!
There was a loud explosion close to the ground, and the critical dragon breath rolled over the ground, but a passage was opened up near the upper part - Wu Chen's figure soared into the sky, narrowly passing by the edge of the dragon breath!
Wu Chen didn't bother to check the condition of the shield. He looked down, but his pupils suddenly shrank.
Duan Feng suddenly flew up out of thin air and flew straight towards him!
In the zero-cap state of advance sacrifice, he can borrow the abilities of summoned beasts.
How can a dragon not be able to soar?
Wu Chen is not the only one who can fly!
However, what surprised Wu Chen was not this - Duan Feng was not a melee soul card master, nor did he have a physique like him, so how dare he get so close to him?
He was still thinking about how to get close after being forced back by the dragon's breath, but he didn't expect Duan Feng to advance instead of retreating and press forward directly!
At this moment, the two ninth-order dragons behind Duan Feng opened their mouths at the same time, and two streams of dragon breath, one black and one white, burst out, directly spraying towards Duan Feng in the air!
Wu Chen frowned. Was he going to be attacked as well?
……wrong!
Duan Feng pulled his right hand back, as if the actual dragon might penetrated into the dragon breath behind him which was gradually merging and becoming unstable due to energy contradictions. Then he roared, and pushed the ground with his right hand unstoppably, as if the palm of that hand was grasping countless silk threads, pulling the huge energy in the dragon breath behind him!
And the dragon's breath was really pulled like this, and its shape continued to solidify as it surged upwards. When it was pulled past Duan Feng, it had already turned into a giant sword that pierced the sky!
Long Wei makes a sword!
Duan Feng himself did not realize that his dragon might was the prototype of sword intent, but at this moment, when he used it, it already had some of the style of sword intent.
This wave condenses the invisible dragon power into the shape of a weapon, and then draws the dragon breath of the two giant dragons, allowing the dragon breath energy to condense together in the form of "critical mass", turning into a sword tip that soars into the sky!
Wu Chen's face suddenly became solemn. He clenched his fists and roared angrily. Scales continued to spread across his skin... and even a dragon tail grew behind him.
He is moving towards a more complete transformation into a spiritual beast!
In essence, Wu Chen and Duan Feng are both relying on the power of the "beast".
However, the source of Duan Feng's power is still his own soul card, while the source of Wu Chen's power is...
boom!
The shadow of the Chilong appeared and disappeared in the surging energy. Wu Chen stepped on the top of the protective shield, then turned around and punched down. The majestic dragon breath energy also ignited around him!
Chilong is also a dragon, so naturally it has dragon breath!
boom!
Only the head of the Dragon Might Sword maintained a vague sword shape, while the rest of the body was still a surging torrent of dragon breath, but under Duan Feng's pulling, it really looked like a heavenly sword.
Duan Feng has his own pride.
Are you a melee soul card master?
I can beat you in close combat!
The above process sounds long, but it was actually completed in just a few seconds. With a loud bang, two extremely powerful energies exploded above the arena. The explosive energy turned into a strong light, illuminating the entire venue as if it had fallen into darkness!
The aftermath of the explosion echoed within the protective shield, and the next wave of attack came without even a second's pause—a gray dragon's breath broke through the aftermath, accurately found Wu Chen's position in the chaos, and shot straight out!
It’s Duan Feng’s own dragon breath!
The timing of this attack was perfect, but Wu Chen's inner warning made him lean back and narrowly avoid the attack.
"So terrifying." Wu Chen gritted his teeth.
Duan Feng's condition in this game is completely different from the previous ones.
Right from the start, the offensive was as exaggerated as a storm, without stopping for a moment, and all the attacks launched were almost critical dragon breaths that combined light and darkness, and each attack was enough to break the duel shield!
Wu Chen clenched his fists and was about to condense the dragon's breath to fight again, but he suddenly felt a terrifying touch behind him.
No! There's something behind me!
He quickly suppressed the attack, made a sharp turn in the air at an almost sharp angle, and rose against the current. The next second, the fierce bite of the Huilin Dragon passed by his feet, and on the side, the tail of the Fierce Scale Dragon was also ready to strike!
The attacks of the two dragons were extremely tricky. Fortunately, he chose the seemingly even more unimaginable "sharp-angle turn" at that moment, otherwise he would have been hit by at least one of the two attacks!
After dodging, the two dragons did not entangle, but passed by Wu Chen. He looked up quickly, but saw that the aftermath of the energy in the air had dissipated. Duan Feng was suspended high in the air, held up with one hand, and the two giant dragons continued to spit dragon breath onto Duan Feng's head, converging into a chilling chaotic energy!
At first glance, it seemed as if Duan Feng was holding the second sun in the arena in his hands!
Duan Feng's dragon power was burning wildly, and the "sun" had already revealed the shape of a sword tip. Wu Chen knew that this "sword" would only be stronger than the previous one!
By the time Wu Chen saw what Duan Feng was doing, his next round of attack had already been launched -
"go."
boom!
Duan Feng waved his hand, and the sun he was holding turned into a torrent and fell down, like a sword from the sky, slashing across the air!
Wu Chen's pupils constricted. At this moment, his transformation into a spirit beast deepened, and he no longer looked human.
He changed his usual fighting style, stretched out his right hand, and grasped the air:
"Mystical Power: Demon King's Seal!"
Every spiritual beast has powerful magical powers derived from its bloodline.
Chilong has countless magical powers, but the strongest ones all have one characteristic - suppression!
boom!
It seemed as if something incredibly heavy fell to the ground in the dark. The sun transformed into a sky sword and slashed in front of Wu Chen, but suddenly it froze, and then fell to the ground and exploded!
In an instant, the fire spread across the ground, and there was no intact spot on the ground.
Duan Feng frowned slightly and was about to continue attacking when he heard Wu Chen say:
"It's almost time."
"……What?"
Wu Chen took a deep breath.
Now, there is almost no human feature in him.
He is infinitely close to becoming a complete spiritual beast.
Wu Chen slowly untied the card box on his waist with his hands that were like dragon claws, and then - pulled out all the soul cards in it, and let go, and those soul cards fell to the ground.
Duan Feng's eyes flashed with confusion: "What are you doing?"
Is this learning from Yu Cang again?
But Yu Cangyang can use "Emperor Drawing the Sword" by using all his soul cards. What can you do?
Doubt prevented him from attacking immediately.
"Haven't you noticed yet?"
"…What did you find?"
"Duel Shield has changed."
Um?
Duan Feng lowered his head and looked at his palm.
I saw... the duel shield that was close to my skin was stained with a trace of black mist at some point.
"I'm sorry, but you and I, who carry this bloodline, can't make a choice."
Wu Chen's tone was terrifyingly calm. He reached into his arms and took out another deck - compared to the original deck that was full of Axe and equipment cards, this deck was even more exaggerated.
They are all blank soul cards!
What can a blank soul card do?
Wu Chen looked calm as he slowly pushed the blank soul cards into the card box.
"Now, let me tell you the new rules of the duel." Wu Chen slowly rose into the air, looking Duan Feng straight in the eye. "When the duel shield is destroyed, the spatial force that originally protected you will immediately tear you apart. In other words—lose, and you die."
Duan Feng's pupils suddenly shrank.
But there was no other reaction.
After all, he is the one who has the upper hand now.
"And—" Wu Chen continued, "You and the source of your bloodline will become the new fuel for the Bloodline Empire, supporting the empire to complete its final descent!"
…
waiting area
Yu Cang stood up suddenly.
What?
According to Wu Chen, the source of Duan Feng’s bloodline is Di Chang’an, right?
……I see.
Yu Cang seemed to have grasped something.
Gu Zhihan had reminded Yu Cang before that ever since the Recruitment Bureau cut off the Bloodline Empire's demands for hybrids, the huge world that existed in the bloodline had lost its fuel and would probably collapse soon... In this case, he might react excessively.
I just didn't expect that they would set their sights directly on Shenhua?
this……
Moreover, Yu Cang also noticed that not only the duel shield on Duan Feng's body, but also the inner and outer shields in the arena were covered with layers of black fog. If that was the case, when the shield was broken, he would be killed as he was between the two shields!
This has turned into a complete dark duel!
Thinking of this, Yu Cang quickly turned his gaze in the direction of Di Chang'an.
At this moment, Di Changan's voice suddenly came to his ears.
"Don't panic, I'm awake, everything will be fine."
"……oh."
Yu Cang, who had just become nervous, suddenly relaxed.
This damn sense of security.
He then sat back in his seat and prepared to watch the show.
This should be the manifestation of the great omen... Tsk, but since the myth is here in person, it must be very stable.
When Shenhua takes action himself later, there may not even be a false alarm.
However.
Before the comfortable smile on Yu Cang's face fully appeared, Di Changan's voice reached his ears again.
"That Wu Chen probably plans to use the blank soul cards to summon some residual souls of spirit beasts to fight. At most, they will be passed down from generation to generation—"
"Yeah..." Yu Cang nodded in agreement.
"Well, if you go up, can you win?"
"Hmm...ah?" Yu Cang's expression suddenly froze. He reacted and pointed at himself, "Me?"
"Yes, you." Di Chang'an's voice seemed to be filled with laughter. "What a great opportunity to show off... It's just right, I, an old man, can take a break and enjoy the feeling of being protected by the younger generation."
“…”
"Of course, in a battle like this—you can use those banned cards."
