Five Schools League (III)
"Are these guys all barbarians?"
Not to mention the other three adults on the Huancelia Ocean Team, even the baby-faced, very young boy could make a hole in the special material field with just one punch.
Unlike their flashy combat uniforms, their fighting style is extremely primitive, full of so-called "barbarian" directness.
Not only are the Capet brothers born with powerful supernatural powers, they also have special companion weapons that can absorb damage, rebound damage, or serve as a special medium, allowing the twins to swap positions, with flexible movements and diverse abilities. They can be said to be a typical example of "1+1" being greater than two.
Even when faced with extremely unreasonable, brutal and powerful attacks, they can seize the opportunity to counterattack while dodging.
Looking around, there is no combination in the entire league that cooperates better than the two of them. If the league had a 2v2 battle format, there would not be so few people betting on their team to win.
However, despite their strength, they had no coordination at all with their Cavendish teammates.
"...That's enough. Stop pushing the enemy towards me."
"What's your intention, you unlucky fellow?"
"Do you want to lose this game on purpose?"
"I didn't mean it." Cedric said innocently.
Whether it was an attack directed at the blue-haired young man, or the target was his special ability, it would always be hit in other directions for no reason, or it would not be used at all, and sometimes it would accidentally hit their own people.
"Captain, he--" The baby-faced boy felt frustrated that he had the power but couldn't hit anyone.
"It's a very strange power, be careful." The captain of Huancelia said solemnly.
Before the battle, they had never heard of such a thing in the league.
“It’s almost like a conceptual weapon.”
Cedric took a step back calmly. "What are you talking about conceptual weapons? Wasn't it because you were nervous that you made a mistake on stage?"
"If you're not strong enough, don't make excuses for yourself. Go back and train again."
The baby-faced boy blushed: "...You!"
Ah, this is the first time I see Cedric fighting. Is it really that interesting?
Li Yuebai stood at the edge of the arena with his arms crossed, watching them pull each other's hair (bushi) from the best viewing position.
Yeah, the fighting moves are pretty good and cool.
Ah, this move fully demonstrates the twins’ tacit understanding.
Speaking of which, the players on the opposing team also have very pleasing figures, and every movement they make carries a simple yet powerful sense of strength, which is worth savoring over and over again.
Unlike other academies, Huancelia Ocean has never had any formal training grounds. Therefore, for Huancelia Ocean's students, the most common training project is to run around the island, from before sunrise to after moonrise, day after day, year after year, until they have built the strongest body.
What power-type teams fear most is encountering enemies with nimble bodies and strange superpowers. Not only does this wear out their limited patience, it also makes people feel extremely irritated and disgusted.
“We can’t go on like this.”
The baby-faced boy yelled in an unstable tone: "Captain, I'm going to use that trick!"
“Wait a minute—” Captain Cool occasionally felt a headache for this genius who enrolled early: “Didn’t I say that you can’t use it in the competition?”
"It's so frustrating to fight them. I'm almost mad at them."
The captain said coldly: "Don't use it."
The baby-faced boy felt wronged: "Okay, I'll listen to you..."
"What secret weapon? Don't hide it--" The Capet brothers had a nasty smile on their faces.
"You're not pretending, are you?" The blue-haired young man laughed, "You sound very impressive, but you're just trying to save face in the league."
"We have seen many people like you..."
"It's terrible."
The baby-faced boy was furious and forcibly activated the move that had not yet been completed.
Smoke and dust billowed, and a flash of light passed through the middle of the venue like a white dragon.
The sound was so loud and unavoidable that the entire venue was shaking.
The nearly out-of-control force broke free from previous restraints.
Even Li Yuebai, who was far away from them, couldn't help but feel pressured by the momentum. He took two steps back, and then suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Uh." He was originally standing at the edge of the field, and was so engrossed in watching the game that he forgot there was an open space behind him.
The competition venue is about tens of meters above the ground. It is said that when it was built, it was named the Heavenly Test Platform in order to be closer to the sky and to train the courage and determination of the contestants.
Students usually jokingly call it "Cliff Terrace".
According to the physical fitness of the league members, falling from the cliff would not result in death, but at most they would suffer serious injuries.
However, generally, those who fell were forced down during a fight, and it was unprecedented for someone to slip down accidentally.
“…”
At the moment of weightlessness, Li Yuebai subconsciously activated the angel's ability [Wings of Darkness].
He is not like an angel, born with steel wings. His wings are completely energy-based, like smoke, relying on the energy of the cards to maintain consumption. They grow from his shoulder blades and help him maintain balance in the air.
The wings quickly dissipated because someone caught him—
The young man's jaw was set, his expression serious, and even his funny combat uniform could not hide his heroic appearance.
At the moment when he accidentally fell from the competition field, the captain of Huanceliayang, who was closest to him, jumped down without hesitation.
"You're so light." The agile young man picked him up horizontally, landed him easily, and then said something in his ear.
"No. 15, Saint Priss First College - Li Yuebai, is disqualified from the competition."
"On the 20th, Huanselia Ocean Academy - Rost lost the qualification to compete."
"I thought you would get hurt. Are you not going to play to conserve your strength?" In the broadcast of his disqualification, he smiled and said, "It's a very special energy circuit, and the wings look very beautiful."
Li Yuebai, who was forcibly carried like a princess, said: "Can you put me down now?"
"Um, sorry," he put him gently down, his dark eyes full of him.
"By the way, this shouldn't be considered as an injury to you, right? Will it reduce your investment?" asked the biggest miser of Huancelia College.
*
"It turns out that he only cares about my money, which makes my heart flutter." Li Yuebai propped up his chin and commented: "His face is the type I like."
"Is this why you deducted half of his investment? Don't worry, you won't lose money by investing in this project."
"If you say there's no loss, why don't you invest yourself?" Li Yuebai asked.
"As for me...it's useless for me to invest my family's money. I'm not like you, who still wants to take over the family business. Li Jianxue actually lets you interfere." Cedric chuckled.
"Hey, I'm not taking over the family business. I just want to be the head of the family."
"We will support you no matter what you want, but we don't deserve it..."
"Please punish us, damn it——"
Although they eventually won the game due to various factors, the blond twins were still very regretful and frustrated - because they were too far away and their vision was blocked, they did not catch Li Yuebai earlier than the opposing captain.
They were injured by the half-finished moves of the baby-faced boy, but still planned to start emergency training that would exceed their physical capacity.
"That's what I meant." Li Yuebai stood up, walked over leisurely, and stepped on one of them's back without any hesitation: "The seniors actually caused me to be hugged by a strange man. Damn it."
"I'm sorry, junior."
“…Step on me.”
"I see you're quite happy being hugged." Cedric looked at the farce in front of him with a calm expression.
When he first watched it, he was surprised at Yuebai's bad temper, but now he has almost gotten used to it.
"It's easy for you to say that. Now the Star Internet is full of animated pictures of me being carried like a princess!" This is simply social hell.
"I have to say, it's quite beautiful." Having said that, Cedric went to taste it again and saved the picture without anyone noticing: "The academy is already controlling public opinion, so don't worry about it."
"By the way, you saw me fall, why didn't you come to catch me?"
"Because I remember you were able to handle it in the air, and that captain also jumped very fast. You two were like committing suicide for love, and I was stunned... Ah, so you prefer me to hug you like a princess?" Cedric said, and suddenly he realized, "Yuebai, I still don't know you well enough."
He turned his head and looked at him, his eyes full of frivolous smiles: "So my face is the type you prefer?"
Li Yuebai pushed his forehead with her index finger and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Since you were so lucky in the battle, you can draw the lot for the second round."
"Good luck...?" His smile deepened: "Then I'd better obey your command."
