Chapter 68
Because of Xi Siling's previous reminder, Lan Yi had thought about how he would deal with it if he met Xianhai again.
Senior Xianhai from the third year has a superpower officially registered at the Superpower Institute called [Infinite Sea], which is an extremely powerful superpower.
By consuming the special ability, you can create an ocean out of thin air and move freely in it.
In order to allow him to use his supernatural powers smoothly without flooding the venue, the school also upgraded the drainage system and reinforced the protective barrier.
But for Lan Yi, who was also in the barrier, there was no way to escape. First of all, breathing in water was a big problem. Secondly, his movements would also be restricted. There was almost no way for him to fight against Xianhai who was like a fish in water.
But he is not without a solution.
Lan Yi has two ways to deal with it. One is to stop Xian Hai before he can use his supernatural powers, not giving him enough time to summon the sea.
There is another possibility which is even worse. Lan Yi imagines that he is already trapped in the water and the only thing he can do is find a way out.
A range-based superpower like this requires a huge amount of supernatural power to maintain, and that is when Lan Yi and Xian Hai will compete in perseverance.
As for why he lost so badly last year...it was because Lan Yi couldn't swim last year.
After the mid-year competition, Xi Siling specifically dragged Li Ke to the swimming pool to learn how to swim.
“You may not need to use the swimming skill, but you must know it.”
What his friend said made sense, so Lan Yi learned his lesson and started learning swimming from teacher Si Ling.
But swimming alone cannot defeat Xianhai. He has to find Xianhai himself in deep water.
I have thought of many countermeasures, but many times plans cannot keep up with changes.
As soon as the duel started, Lan Yi quickly approached Xian Hai's position, but the moment he jumped, there was already a thin layer of mist on the field.
Xianhai's physical skills are relatively weak, so he is also very clear about where his weaknesses are.
Seeing Lan Yi approaching quickly, he also began to retreat.
If he was caught before his supernatural power was activated, Xianhai could basically declare himself a failure.
But he would never make such a low-level mistake.
In just a moment, Lan Yi arrived in front of Xian Hai, gathered his strength and punched out, but the feeling was almost the same as hitting water.
The part that Lan Yi hit turned into water, absorbing all of his strength, and finally only caused ripples.
"Brother Lan Yi, you are a pure power type, and I just happen to restrain you."
This is also the reason why Xianhai will participate in the combat group. Most of the students participating here are confident in their own strength, but if this strength cannot even touch the opponent, it will become useless.
The target of sea restriction is to be the first in the combat group, so it is impossible to let go here.
But it's time for him to let go.
Lan Yi felt that the water level was rising continuously, just like last time, the fishy and salty sea water began to engulf the entire space within the barrier.
But this time, Lan Yi was not like a landlubber and was able to float to the surface to breathe.
But no one knows what to do next.
——
"Ahhhh again! That's so mean!"
Li Ke was extremely anxious and clenched his fists nervously.
No matter which opponent you face, it is always the same. Let the sea go, then hide, and wait for the opponent to be unable to hold on and surrender or for the teacher to come out and declare the loss.
Everyone knows that Xianhai will consume a lot of his supernatural powers while maintaining them, but no one can persist until he uses up all his supernatural powers.
"This arena is relatively small, and the existence of the barrier provides him with a fish tank-like venue, so he can perform better."
Liu Huaqi's point was very insightful. This ability works best in a smaller space. If there was no barrier, or if the battle field was changed to the size of a playground, Xian Hai would probably be defeated by no one.
This is a very pertinent statement, but the tone seems a bit sarcastic.
Xi Siling was a little amused and didn't know whether she should be happy that Liuhuaqi regarded Lan Yi as one of his own.
"System, are you ready?"
"I'm ready, but can weaving a dream really awaken his supernatural powers?"
Lan Yi and his sister both have special bloodlines, so even if the superpower he displays is only an increase in strength, there is still the possibility of a second awakening of the superpower.
However, Lan Yi's second awakening of his supernatural power came a little late, and it was only forced to unfold under stimulation.
The system said that if Xi Siling wanted to forcibly help Lan Yi to awaken his superpowers a second time, a considerable amount of willpower would be needed. At least most of it had just been spent, and the willpower that was still being accumulated was not enough.
So Xi Siling decided to weave a dream to give Lan Yi some initiative to become stronger.
Passive waiting is never as useful as independent willingness.
"I believe in 11."
Excluding Liuhuaqi, among the three of them, Lan Yi has always been the one with the least "opportunities".
His special ability was not outstanding in the school of Miwen, which was full of geniuses. He was not like Li Ke and himself, where people would come to him for help anytime and anywhere and then receive generous rewards.
In addition, although Lan Yi's growing environment was not the best, he was brought up by an elder sister who loved him deeply. He is simple and honest, has reliable friends around him, and does not have much pressure.
It is said that the progress of people with special abilities takes place between life and death, and in a sense this statement is not entirely wrong.
What Lan Yi lacks is not hard work or talent, but an opportunity.
"I see. Anyway, your judgment was not wrong. I won't worry about it."
Some people are born to be smarter and more perceptive. For example, when facing the matter of Liuhuaqi, he began to doubt it a long time ago, and the system didn't believe it at that time.
Xi Siling smiled embarrassedly, thinking that the system was praising him.
Liuhuaci looked at Xi Siling as if he was investigating something.
"Isn't the department head worried?"
"Not worrying... is fake."
The senior from the department drew out his tone and made a little joke.
"But I believe in 11."
Absolute trust is precious. Sometimes, neither advice nor help is as important as firm support and companionship.
Xi Siling smiled and said, "Just like I believe in you, 77, why don't you give 11 some confidence?"
In a corner where no one noticed, the boy's fingers curled up unconsciously.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lan Yi was no match for Xian Hai now, but Xi Si Ling could say such "irresponsible" words without any burden.
And...I don't know if it's because he noticed the fear that has always existed in Liuhuaqi's heart, or because he felt the vague alienation, the senior in the department always repeats similar words over and over again.
That trust was so heavy, but Liuhuaqi couldn't help but listen to it. Every time, his heart would be shaken involuntarily, and then he would savor it over and over again in the following time.
Because the senior in the department was not lying, he really believed it.
Liu Huaqi didn't dare to do this to others. He was not worried that the senior in the department would stab him in the back, but he was worried that his existence would hurt the senior in the department.
"Um..."
Liu Huaqi responded with an evasive look, not daring to look at the senior in the department again.
The longer we get along, the more afraid I become that my true self will be discovered by the seniors.
If this is really the case, it would be better not to come to Miwen in the first place and not meet the senior in the department again.
Although it's a bit late to think about this now.
Liuhuaqi began to think about the possibility of helping Lan Yi cheat.
It is definitely possible for Li Ke to enter Lingyan's class. I will have no problem with it, not to mention the seniors in the department.
He didn't want the atmosphere in the dormitory to change for the worse because of senior Lan Yi falling behind.
The barrier is not a problem for him...Do you want to take action?
——
Lan Yi was a little exhausted.
This area of water may seem ordinary, but it is as turbulent as the sea, and is made even more dangerous by the sea restrictions.
It's not like he hasn't encountered Sea Limit before, but his attacks had no effect on him at all.
Are we just going to give up like this?
He is not willing to accept this...How can he accept this!
"Ayi, come to my side."
"...elder sister?!"
Wasn't he fighting in the mid-year competition? Why did he see his sister?
Lan Yi suddenly remembered that he had given his sister the qualification to watch the competition, but his sister said she was very busy and would go after Lan Yi entered the finals.
Obviously, the money he received from the murder commissions and the scholarship from the school were enough to live on, but his sister always said that she should save it for emergencies.
He didn't need any emergency help, he just hoped his sister wouldn't have to work so hard.
Thinking of this, Lan Yi still obediently walked to his sister. It was at this time that Lan Yi realized that this was where they lived when they were children.
"Sister, why did you bring me to this place?"
Lan Yi doesn't like it here.
"Sister, don't you want to take me home? Let's go to the village temple."
My sister is a half-orc who was mutated by supernatural powers. She has had snow leopard ears and a tail since birth.
When he was a child, Lan Yi felt unhappy because he was different from his sister.
The village temple? Lan Yi was a little confused. He didn't remember going there when he was a kid.
But Lan Yi still let his sister hold his hand and move forward.
"The snow leopard is the totem of our village. Yi must remember it."
Indeed, Lan Yi remembered it, but their family couldn't even get into the center of the village.
Lan Yi once asked his sister these questions, but his sister said she didn't know either.
But the boy could see the inner thoughts of people close to him, and his sister just didn't want him to worry, so Lan Yi didn't ask any further questions.
The sacrificial hall was the tallest building in the entire village, forming a sharp contrast with their shabby huts.
Snow leopard elements are everywhere. The majestic snow leopard statue occupies the main position, and there are people worshipping it devoutly below.
Lan Yi was a little confused. Could this building, which was out of tune with the surroundings, really exist?
The two came under the statue, and the sister clasped her hands together as if praying for something.
After a long time, she opened her eyes and looked at Lan Yi.
"Ayi, the snow leopard is the sacred animal we worship. Our clan has the blood of the sacred animal, but according to the rules left by our ancestors, if a woman inherits this bloodline, it is a bad omen."
“They farted!”
Lan Yi retorted angrily before his sister had even finished speaking.
Lan Lingniao was stunned for a moment, then squatted down and put his hands on his shoulders.
"I'm glad you can protect me. I don't care what they say. I want to tell you that this is not your limit. You also have the blood of a divine beast flowing in your body."
So, wake up from the deep sea and take your first step to conquer the world.
