Starry Kingdom, 10pm, Galaxia National Arena.

In an arena set in the shape of a town lane, a two-story house collapsed with a loud bang. Sonia, who was retreating, suddenly found that time was slowing down rapidly. The flying gravel slowly passed by her ears. The host's passionate introduction was stretched out into an electronic music echo. The whole world seemed to stand still. She immediately realized that she had triggered a passive blessing - "Deadly Sense"!

This double blessing, which mixed prophecy and time faction, reminded her that she was in imminent danger by slowing down time!

"Deadly Sense" will only be activated just before being attacked with a fatal blow, which means that before performing the defense miracle, the village girl will be killed and trigger the "Forbidden Death" miracle, resulting in defeat!

However, until now, she still doesn't know where the danger comes from!

If she guessed correctly, the attack that she hadn't seen yet could kill her instantly was probably a miracle of another contestant's gunmanship. At this moment, the fatal bullet had already been fired, drawing a supersonic path in the sticky air. Was its destination the head, the heart, or the throat?

It seemed that the only thing Sonia could do at this moment was to change the trajectory of her body and avoid injuries to vital parts as much as possible.

However……

"Sword Princess, I actually chose this song specifically for you."

"Ah? Is this a riddle of some kind? Or is there some story behind it? Can you give me a hint?"

"What are you talking about? I mean, this blessing will be very helpful to you in battle."

"This blessing will also help witches in their battles..."

"No, no, no, just like witches are good at creating personality sisters, you actually have a special skill called 'Dark Heart Eyes'."

"It doesn't sound like a good thing... How come I didn't know that?"

"Because this special effect allows you to nip danger in the bud in advance, but your life has been so busy recently. You are the only one bullying others and no one is bullying you. Of course, you can't use this special effect."

"How could I bully others? I'm not that kind of girl!"

"Although it's a good thing that you don't have the opportunity to use this skill, but people can't win all the time, and there will always be times when you get beaten, so I chose this blessing on purpose. In a desperate situation, if you are helpless, you can choose to trust your heart."

"Does it really work?"

"I hope that helps."

Sonia closed her eyes and clenched the hilt of the sword with her right hand. It was strange. Even though every cell in her body was sending out a crisis alarm, her mind kept wandering back and forth, and she still thought of the person who was not on the field. Then, she seemed to really sense the malice that was flying.

Miracle: Evil Light Slash!

clang!

She raised her wooden sword and slashed it towards the air with murderous evil light. There was a clanging sound in the air, and the aftermath of the collapse collapsed the wall behind her, showing how powerful the destructive power was!

Sonia's thoughts were long, but in reality they were just a moment. The host who was looking at the overall situation was just saying that Miss Servi was in danger, but now he stood up in shock: "Contestant Servi actually cut off contestant Hubert's miracle bullet directly!? Is it a miracle effect?"

Many people in the audience didn't see clearly what had just happened, until the host said that Sonia cut off the bullet, Adele took the lead in cheering with the Sword Flower students!

"Sword Princess! Sword Princess!"

"The Claw Club is the best in the world!"

"What you're cutting is not the bullet, but my heart!"

"Sword Princess, I want to be your dog!"

Amid the chaotic noise, the Sanctuary magicians narrowed their eyes one by one.

"A reflection miracle similar to the Spinning Stick Faction's "One-Arm Field"? "

"No, reflection miracles require active casting. Hubert seized the opportunity very well. Servi was in a hurry to avoid the collapsed house just now, and her body and mind were in a state of hasty dodging. She had no chance to cast any miracles. She should have left the scene here."

"Pure talent? ...Aletheia University has really met its match this year."

No wonder even the Sanctuary Magician was surprised. After all, the player who sniped the village girl just now was a fourth-year student at the University of Alysse and a two-winged gun wizard!

The reason why the gunmanship faction has become the largest and most powerful combat faction in just a hundred years is that it has almost dominant destructive power in the field of low-level magicians. It can kill almost any low-level magician in seconds with a deliberate or unintentional move. Only the sanctuary magicians can rely on the sanctuary to resist assassination gun attacks 100%.

With very few exceptions, most two-wing defense miracles could not stop the penetration of two-wing gunnery miracles, which meant that as long as the gunner hit one shot, it was enough to establish victory. Correspondingly, low-level magicians had only two countermeasures against the gunner: dodge and parry!

Most magicians can only choose to dodge, and parrying is a reflex miracle that only a few factions can cultivate. For example, the "One-arm Field" of the Spinning Stick faction allows the magician to instantly knock away all bullets that enter the attack range, and the highest level of parrying is to return the bullets to the gunman along the same path.

Throughout the entire match, Sonia had been using the complex terrain of the town to dodge the gunfire, but it was difficult for her to get close to the gunners. Faced with a deadly situation, she suddenly showed off her ability to counterattack, which was a great show in the eyes of insiders.

What's more terrifying is that she didn't use a miracle to parry, but seemed to rely on a flash of talent... 'Rhythm Sword Master' Nidala couldn't help but ask Trozan beside him: "Did you teach me?"

"It's just so-so." Trozan said calmly, "You've sparred with me so much, so it's not surprising that you would reach out like this."

But Trozan was also confused.

Not to mention the two-winged gold, even for her now, it is impossible to cut off the bullets in a natural state!

Dodging is no problem, after all, a Sanctuary magician can sense the trajectory of a bullet, but parrying is a completely different matter. Facing a miracle bullet, if you simply put your sword on the track, the miracle bullet will easily break the blade; even if you strengthen the blade, the broken bullet can easily hurt the magician's body; therefore, a true parry requires the magician to attack the bullet with all his strength, which means that the magician's reaction speed reaches the supersonic realm - in short, it can only be a miracle.

Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary people and even low-level magicians, Sonia was performing a miracle.

However, the Sanctuary Magicians were all wondering, why didn't Sonia perform a miracle? Was this a real miracle?

The outside world's surprise and praise did not affect the players' mentality. After Sonia successfully counterattacked, she kept moving between buildings and never exposed herself in the open space.

Unlike "newcomers" like her, the other contestants are all magicians with at least three years of experience in exploring the virtual world, and some have even entered the abyss many times to hone their skills. Their magic spirit construction and miracle functions are far superior to hers. For example, the village girl only has the attack miracle now, but the other contestants basically have miracles in attack, defense, movement, treatment, and reconnaissance - after all, they are all wandering alone in the virtual world, unlike Sonia who returns to the virtual world as if it were her home.

But this also means that once the battle becomes protracted, the balance of the battle will tilt towards other magicians. With only three players left, Sonia could hardly get close to the gunmage Hubert, but the opponent was able to lock her position, obviously possessing a miracle of reconnaissance, so even though Sonia was running away, she was almost sniped by him.

Although Sonia's impeachment was shocking, it did not help her situation.

In fact, after learning about the list of contestants, most people were not optimistic about Sonia. Adele had even prepared a publicity plan for "Sword Flower's First Defeat". As soon as Sonia lost, she would mobilize the Claw Club to quickly post on the school forum, emphasizing Sonia's identity as a freshman, her attitude of participation, her glorious record of three consecutive wins, and that Sonia still had a chance for a "loser's revival battle".

Even if she loses, Sonia will only receive encouragement and sympathy from everyone, and her number of fans will increase instead of decrease!

And to be honest, as a freshman, Sonia's performance has already broken Jianhua's college league record. When she goes out in the future, she will be able to say "Jianhua University should be proud of me", not to mention that she will be able to participate in three college leagues in the future, which is enough to say that she has a promising future.

But she doesn't want to lose!

Because the classmates who like her are looking at her, and the little trumpet who hates her is also looking at her;

Because Kalesha was watching her, and all the stars were watching her;

Because her mother was watching her, and the little trumpets who used to look down on her and her daughter were also watching her;

Because she wants the viewer to look at her;

Moreover, she doesn't want to lose!

Suffering is meaningless, otherwise the homeless man would be a great man; failure will not breed success, it will almost lead to depression. Sonia doesn't want to listen to others comforting herself, she only needs praise, jealousy, and love!

No one can win all their lives? But I have already lost since I was born. I have suffered enough and been looked down upon. I finally used up all my luck to meet you. From now on, I will win all my life, whether it is competition, fighting, life, study, career or love!

Suddenly, gunshots roared in the distance, and the host's voice cut through the arena: "Nobo actually destroyed all the buildings on a straight line and used the Movement Miracle to directly attack Hubert... Hubert reacted quickly and tried to use the Movement Miracle to distance himself, but it was useless and he was caught up by Nobo. Did the Defense Miracle work? It didn't! Nobo's sword cut Hubert in half, triggering the "Forbidden Death" - Hubert was out!"

There was an uproar in the audience, and the faces of the people from Aletheia University were all extremely grim - Hubert was one of the top three contestants in their session, and he had originally been aiming for the top three spots, but now he actually lost in the quarterfinals!

Although there is a loser's revival battle, according to the competition rules, it means that Hubert will be in a mixed battle with another Truth contestant, and in the end, Truth University will still not be able to maintain its top three position!

Since the gunner was dead, Sonia no longer needed to hide and walked to the open space in the middle of the arena. It was not an open space before, but after the melee, the surrounding buildings were flattened.

A two-meter-tall magician walked out of the ruins, holding a giant sword that was almost as tall as him, and wearing a simple but imposing black battle suit. He was Nobo, a senior at the Berserker University and the favorite to win the championship this year.

Although both are swordsmen, Nobo and Sonia have completely different magic directions. He follows the giant sword style of using force to defeat tricks. The giant sword master is a special faction of the Berserker University. Compared with magic competition, the giant sword master is extremely popular in both the abyss and the virtual realm. After all, the giant sword itself is designed to kill large monsters, not to deal with humanoid creatures.

But this does not mean that the Giant Sword Mage is not suitable for magic competitions. On the contrary, in magic competitions, the Giant Sword Mage's winning rate is also among the best.

There are not many great sword masters, the main reason is that most people who want to wield a great sword must first practice the bitter and weak faction to hone their strength, otherwise they can't lift a great sword. But if learning magic is against human nature, then learning the bitter and weak faction is simply inhumane. In addition, now that the people of Fanxing have enough food and clothing, normal people can't bear the weight of bitterness.

Therefore, the physical fitness of each greatsword master is far superior to that of his peers, and their strength can also be transformed into destructive force that can destroy everything in its path.

boom!

Suddenly, Nobo swept across, slashing a gray-white sword light towards Sonia from afar! The sword light was thick, sharp, and had a large range. It was difficult for ordinary miracles to compete. The village girl could only directly use her strongest single miracle -

Blood Moon Shattered Lake!

The blood sword light and the gray sword light offset each other, creating a huge gust of air that blew away all the rubble on the open ground, as if clearing the way for the two contestants to fight!

"I'm sorry, but the giant sword is not good at close combat, so I can only crush you with the "Grey Wind". "Nobo said in a calm voice with a hint of apology: "Please don't blame me for using any means necessary."

Yes, the Great Sword Masters are not good at close combat, their arm length plus the blade length make their best attack distance is medium distance. Once they are approached by the close tactician, they are no different from sandbags.

Therefore, in the magic competition, the giant sword wizard's fighting style is the most brutal type - using sword energy to rush!

Use thicker, longer and harder sword energy to crush all enemies!

Although it seems stupid, it is extremely effective because the energy of the 'sword energy' magic spirit comes from the magician's own power. In other words, the greater the magician's power, the stronger the sword energy, which perfectly meets the conditions of the giant sword magician!

At the beginning of the quarterfinals of Meteor Robbery, a magician's miracle defense was crushed by Nobo's sword energy. It can be seen how brutal it is!

Logically, Sonia's best strategy would be to break into Nobo's melee range, which would restrict Nobo's ability to defend. However, she nodded: "No problem, I want to go back quickly too... I have something else to do tonight."

"Okay!" Nobo shouted and swung the giant sword again!

Blood and ashes collided fiercely on the field, causing layers of air waves!

"Contestant Servi is too impulsive to compete with Contestant Nobo for miracles." The host Arsenu felt it was a pity and could not help but remind him: "According to the contestant's information, Contestant Nobo has already stepped into the Time Continent in the third grade, which means he has been exploring the Time Continent for a year. Even if he died many times along the way, his Golden Wings should have condensed halfway."

"Nobo's "Glazing Wind" miracle is a mid-level Golden Miracle. It has high damage and a large range, but does not consume much mana. Because the damage of "Glazing Wind" varies according to the strength of the magician, "Glazing Wind" is almost a common miracle for Nobo, and he can use it multiple times in a row."

"In this way, this magnificent miracle competition has become a contest of magic power. Whoever has more magic power will win. However, contestant Servi has been in the Time Continent for less than a month, and although her new miracle "Blood Moon Broken Lake" has not yet been included in the Starry Miracle Catalog, it is obviously a miracle that consumes a lot of magic power..."

"Is her reserve of magical power really sufficient?"
