42 Battle Flame Armor Beast
◎The blazing fire turns into a golden crow◎
"Hmm, it looks like a successful breakthrough." Yin Yu looked at the Soul-Loving Grass, which had grown even larger after the breakthrough, and nodded seriously. "It seems my conclusion was correct. You should trust it more in the future."
"Do you think it's edible?!" Guo Yunzheng was a little upset. "Then all my hard work was in vain!!!"
"Not really. You can run faster next time you encounter an enemy, and this will make the connection between it and you closer, right?" Yin Yu touched the emerald green leaves of the Soul-Loving Grass.
"Okay, that's true." Guo Yunzheng squatted down and communicated with the Soul-Loving Grass. "I didn't notice this before. I should have trusted you more."
"Rustle, rustle." The Soul-Bewitching Grass shook its leaves and looked at its master with some disdain. But since he was its master after all, it still forgave him. The Soul-Bewitching Grass stretched out its roots and hooked his wrist.
"Wow, wow, wow!" Just as Guo Yunzheng was moved to tears while hugging the Soul-Loving Grass, the Soul-Loving Grass rustled and said again: It would be nice if I could have a big meal like this every day.
"That won't do! How much would that cost?" Guo Yunzheng immediately retorted.
Yin Yu found it a little funny to see the man and the grass quarreling again.
Outside the tent, Han Chengfeng and Xie Yi also stood outside, watching the man and the grass fighting in the distance. Han Chengfeng stroked the delicate texture on the folding fan and said, "Looks like Yin Yu has solved it without us."
"Yeah." It's good that he's made a breakthrough. Xie Yi's stern face softened slightly. He looked at Han Chengfeng and said, "Let's go."
"Okay, go ahead. I'll stay a little longer." Han Chengfeng waved his hand and watched Xie Yi walk into the tent. His gaze shifted to the shadows of the trees nearby. "Senior Huangfu, aren't you coming out yet?"
"Oh, have we been discovered?" Huangfu Wen jumped down from the tall tree trunk. His handsome and gentle face looked very handsome when he smiled.
"After all, I'm a little worried. You guys have such a close relationship. If he really can't join, I think you'll probably feel a little regretful."
"Regrets? But now there is no need to have regrets. This is pretty good." Han Chengfeng thought about it and realized that if Guo Yunzheng did not participate, he would indeed have some regrets.
......
It's a sunny morning.
After Yu Li finished washing up and walked out of the tent, she saw Guo Yunzheng and Yin Yu busy arranging breakfast. She went up to them and said hello, "Good morning!"
"Sister Yu! Good morning!" Guo Yunzheng greeted her warmly.
"Hmm?" Yu Li watched him regain his previous cheerfulness. She looked at Guo Yunzheng with some curiosity and suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Guo Yunzheng, your ability has broken through! That's great!"
"Yes, I finally made a breakthrough." Guo Yunzheng smiled happily, like a happy big golden retriever.
"How did you make the breakthrough?" Yu Li was curious. After all, Guo Yunzheng had trained so hard before but there was no sign of a breakthrough.
"This... is the energy source stone in a ring that Sister Yin Yu gave me. I had a breakthrough after eating the Soul-Loving Grass." Guo Yunzheng said in a low voice a little embarrassedly.
"Pfft? This is really... a bit expensive." Yu Li was a little amused.
However, Guo Yunzheng's breakthrough also made her feel relieved.
Just as they continued to train, after more than ten days of overwhelming publicity on Starnet, people in the Federation knew that the league was about to begin.
The location of the league preliminaries was also announced today, and it will be on a newly discovered energy star, N-2401.
Coach Guan, who received the news first, began to use his authority to search for information about this energy star. Huangfu Wen also came over at this time to discuss it together.
N-2401 is one of the most recently discovered energy stars. Its primary energy source stone is tiger's eye. This stone typically appears yellowish-brown or reddish-brown, with a fine, tough texture. The stone has silk-like luster patterns within it, and after polishing, it resembles a tiger's eye, earning it the nickname "Tiger's Eye."
The production of this kind of mineral requires huge heat energy, which means that active volcanoes will occupy a large part of the surface of the planet, and the rest of the place except for water is basically dense forests.
Coach Guan looked at the map of Planet N-2401 for a long time and said, "Our team is more advantageous in forests or water areas. Try to score as many points in these two areas as possible in the early stages. If possible, try to avoid the volcanic area in the early stages. It is a natural disadvantage for you."
"However, since the main tournament team has chosen this planet, they are likely in need of this type of ore. So if you want to go, the main attackers will be transferred from Gu Hezhi and Yu Li to you and Han Chengfeng. This will be more suitable."
Huangfu Wen nodded in agreement. "This time, the preliminary round of the league will be based on a points ranking. The duration is one week, and the top 64 teams will be selected based on the ranking. This is similar to the schedule of the last league."
"Yes, but the league schedule changes every year. You'll need to adapt accordingly," Coach Guan said. "In the last few days, I'll arrange some training for you on how to adapt to this lava zone. It just so happens that there's a lava zone open underground on our academy planet, so it's a good opportunity for you to get accustomed to it."
Huangfu Wen had no objection to this. Finally, Coach Guan called back everyone who had finished breakfast and started exercising on their own, announced the news and the rules of the competition, and finally took them to the underground magma area without stopping.
Deep in the earth's crust, boiling magma is like a trapped lava dragon, winding and gasping among the folds of dark red rock layers.
The scarlet wave with a temperature of over a thousand degrees was filled with the smell of sulfur and rust. Bubbles burst in the sticky magma, splashing up Martian debris. Some small rocks fell down, but before they came into contact with the magma, they curled up and disintegrated under the high temperature, turning into wisps of gray smoke that merged into the magma.
The gusts of hot wind blew in her face, and Yu Li felt that all the exposed skin on her body was burned red, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
"Is the temperature so high here?!" "It's too hot!" Guo Yunzheng and Di Yuan jumped back a few steps as soon as they arrived, shouting in unison.
Even Yin Yu and Luo Baiwei subconsciously took a few steps back.
Coach Guan, however, looked at them without changing his expression and said, "When you compete, as you continue to go deeper into the volcanic area, the temperature will be similar to that of this magma area now."
"At this time, the focus of your team shifts to Huangfu Wen and Han Chengfeng."
"That..." Yu Li said a little embarrassedly at this time.
"What's wrong?" Coach Guan looked at Yu Li.
"Well... I also have fire-related abilities, but I might be too familiar with them." Yu Li scratched her cheek a little embarrassedly.
Coach Guan also paused for a moment. He said helplessly, "Tell me about your other abilities as well."
Yin Yu laughed at the side: "Yu Li's ability is extremely special even in the special department."
"There's also an illusion type...that's it, but I haven't used it many times, so I'm not very familiar with it." The girl whispered awkwardly.
Coach Guan rubbed his forehead and said, "After that, demonstrate all your abilities to me. Now you try it first? If you can do it, Han Chengfeng, you can return to the position of secondary attacker, is that okay?"
"No problem, and the volcanic environment is indeed more suitable for fire-based abilities." Han Chengfeng had no objection.
"Then I'll try it first." Yu Li raised her hand, golden starlight flickered, and the ends of her long black curly hair were dyed golden red by the flames, as if the golden flames were burning silently, her golden pupils were bright, and the light flowed and filled the sky and the earth.
The smooth and soft silk was cut into the shape of petals, woven and dyed with gold and fire colors. The thin golden gauze was gathered at the waist like wings. The dim yellow tasseled shawl was draped over the girl, emitting a faint glow.
Yu Li tilted her head and looked at Huangfu Wen, signaling him to give the order. Huangfu Wen nodded slightly and gave the order directly: "Luo Baiwei will begin reconnaissance. Lin Momo and Lin Qianqian will spread their lotus flowers, focusing on Lin Momo's fire lotus. When you find your prey, Yu Li, you go first. I'll assist you from the side. Is that okay?"
"Of course." Yu Li had no objection to this.
Luo Baiwei nodded, her detective ability immediately activated. She pointed directly at a certain direction deep in the magma ahead: "There is a nest of strange beasts lurking within 1.6 kilometers in a straight line to the west. They should be Flame Armor Beasts. There is one S-class, two A-class, and several B-class and C-class. There are no other strange beasts around. Do you want to go?"
"Okay, I'm going!" Yu Li waved her hand and the blazing flames turned into a huge firebird, carrying her towards the place where Luo Baiwei pointed.
When she approached the depths of the boiling magma, a huge fire-armored beast as big as an island emerged from the magma. Its body was covered with pieces of black and hard scales, and it looked ferociously at Yu Li who was approaching.
He slammed his tail directly into the lava lake.
Boom——!!
The dense magma gathered like a scorching wave, threatening to burn the creature that had directly entered its territory into charcoal! !
Yu Li faced a golden-red torrent of magma, her face tense. She waved her hand lightly, and boundless flames burned fiercely. The blazing waves gathered into a dazzling golden crow, which screamed sharply.
“Tsk!!!”
It crashed directly into the lava torrent.
"Boom!!!" The two collided with each other, and there was a loud explosion. The originally calm surface of the magma lake began to ripple, and dots of hot magma were scattered outward by the explosion.
She was surrounded by blazing golden flames, directly blocking the magma.
Huangfu Wen also followed at this time, and the black and purple crystals smashed down directly on the head of the Flame Armor Beast, which was relatively soft compared to its scales. Clusters of purple and black crystals emerged from the magma and gathered like two wings, blocking the attacks of other A-level Flame Armor Beasts around.
Lin Qianqian and Lin Momo arrived one step later, holding each other's hands tightly. The white jade vines spread out like a spider web, and red jade fire lotus bloomed one after another on the vines, continuously absorbing the surrounding heat, allowing the scalding magma to gradually cool down. At the same time, it also entangled the other flame armor beasts, separating them from the huge S-level flame armor beast, and then slowly strangled them.
Yu Li's expression was serious. She urged the golden flames of her supernatural power to gather into a huge golden crow once again. The blazing fire illuminated the sky and earth, covering the whole sky. A suffocating pressure emanated from her. At this time, she also spoke:
"Domain·Red Sun and Golden Crow!!"
