Chapter 329: Seviara flapping her wings
Although Tilan's appearance brought unexpected surprises to the entire venue, she was not the only dazzling student in this competition. In the subsequent battles, Seraphiel, Sweetway, and Levito once again showed strength far beyond their peers, which surprised and shocked the audience again and again.
"The 22nd match, Saint Ingo Academy, Seviara, against the Swarm of Bees, Xia Kui."
As the representative of the Swarm of Bees, Xia Kui can be said to be the trump card of the academy, and compared with half a year ago, her strength can be said to have made rapid progress.
Wearing a well-fitting and stylish uniform, Xia Kui took the stage holding a black narrow triangular bee sting sword and looked at the girl with elf blood opposite her.
"Seviara, this is the first time I have heard of this name." She was a little curious about the opponent in front of her. Although they had not officially fought, her intuition told her that the opponent was not a simple character.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Miss Xia Kui." Sevilla's emerald eyes closed slightly and then opened again. Her voice was a little hoarse, not as gentle as those of the young ladies of Saint Ingo.
"Please go all out this time, Miss Xia Kui, because I won't hold back." She bowed politely first, then drew out the two long swords at her waist.
One was as red as blood marrow, and the other was as green as leaves. As she started to fight, golden butterfly wings also appeared behind her.
"Bees and butterflies..." Xia Kui murmured, her eyes fixed on Sevilla's movements. She felt an unprecedented danger.
"The competition begins!"
When the referee's order was shouted, two golden streams of light rushed towards each other from both sides of the platform. Almost in the blink of an eye, the two fought dozens of times in the air. Xia Kui, who had bee cicada wings on her back, and Sevilla, who had butterfly wings on her back, fought from the ground to the sky, and then from the sky to the ground. The battles in between were dazzling.
"Cut the double swords · Flap the wings!"
"Leading bee secret technique · Misdirection!"
The butterfly wings behind Sevilla flashed a red light, and then her figure turned back three times in the air in an instant. Every time she crossed, a blood-red sword mark cut through Xia Kui's body.
This technique was modified from the fairy's shining wings. Although it could not reach the terrifying killing power of the mythical fairy's instant 17-fold slash, even if it was 3 times in an instant, it was enough to instantly kill the extraordinary people of the same level who were caught off guard.
After landing on the ground again, Sevilla put the double swords together and slowly put them back into the buckle behind her waist. Xia Kui, whose cicada wings were torn in mid-air and stained with blood , staggered and fell like a rag doll and landed on the ground.
Xia Kui did not dodge the first sword, but with the help of the Misdirection in the Leading Bee Secret Technique, she staggered a distance and avoided the second attack with only some of her clothes torn. But when the third sword turned back again, Xia Kui was powerless. She might have noticed something was wrong, but there was no time for her to react and dodge.
"Saint Ingo Academy wins!" After the referee's announcement, there was a burst of cheers in the venue, but some people also became silent.
"In this winter festival competition, the most promising player in the Swarm Bee Leader is Xia Kui, but this time..." Someone closed his eyes with regret and disappointment.
Opportunities don't always come. Geniuses emerge every year. If Xia Kui missed this opportunity, she would graduate next year. With her strength, she shouldn't have been eliminated so early, but unfortunately she still met Saint Ingo's hidden trump card.
Watching the medical staff carry Xia Kui off the battlefield, the students of the Swarm Bee Leader became low and silent. In this round, Xia Kui and Lu Ligeta, who were highly regarded in the middle stage of their academy, were eliminated one after another. Even if the remaining people won this game, it would be difficult for them to enter the finals later.
Just as everyone was immersed in the atmosphere of disappointment and sadness, the sound of a guitar playing on the high platform diverted everyone's attention.
"Don't be discouraged. Although you failed this time, you just need to work hard in the future. Even if you didn't get the ideal results in the competition in high school, you still have more anticipated college life and a future with infinite possibilities." Pulin Keke's voice seemed to have magic, rekindling the cold hearts of everyone, making them warm and rekindling their fighting spirit.
While playing a gentle piece of music, Pulin Keke sang with a rare delicate and gentle emotion, with sadness and determination in the melody.
"Flames cannot cry, because tears will extinguish fire. Fire can only burn, no matter how sad it is, it must burn, burning everything until the pain and self are destroyed together." This sentence was not her original creation, but was passed down from a distant era to describe the witch born in the flame.
After the song was over, seeing that everyone was immersed in the music, Pulin Keke smiled and wanted to say something, but suddenly felt something was wrong, as if the bottleneck that had trapped her for a long time had loosened a gap.
Is this a hint for me? In addition to the flame that tells of passion and fighting spirit, there is also the flame of warmth and sadness.
She savored the feeling and sat down again, her fingers unconsciously playing the strings, recalling the momentary feeling that just flowed through her heart.

After the fourth round of elimination, the 24 winners were counted.
Among them, Saint Ingo occupied 7, Ades 5, Relisa 4, Thunderbolt 3, Crystal Grid 3, and Swarm of Bees 2.
Compared with the opening, Swarm of Bees' ranking dropped the most, while Thunderbolt and Relisa Academy had made some progress. Although Ades Academy was behind Saint Ingo, it still had a lot of stamina.
After that, it was the elimination round for the top twelve .
During the short intermission, there was a heated discussion on the Internet and in the venue, because there were too many surprises in this winter festival competition.
Although Swarm of Bees' ranking was about to drop sharply, if compared with the previous two sessions, Xia Kui's strength was not weak. If it was the case of the previous session, Xia Kui would probably be able to get the top three.
But this year, there are many talents. Seraphiel of Lelisa, Levitor of Thunderbolt, Sweetvi, and Seviara of Saint Ingo are all rare talents beyond the norm. Under normal circumstances, they can win the championship.
"And Tilan, she seemed to have an easy time defeating Ahmed." Although Tilan defeated Ahmed, the "Holy Sword Master", many people were not impressed because she did not show any special talent in the process and there was no gorgeous battle light effect. They just thought it was Ahmed's mistake and the singing girl used secret methods in a targeted manner.
After all, this girl with a slender and slightly petite figure is more cute and beautiful in appearance, rather than dangerous and lethal.
After a year of growth, Tilan's height has increased from 160 to 162. According to the teachers in the academy, when Tilan graduates from high school, she will be about 165.
Compared with the seniors in the fourth grade now, Tilan is indeed a little more petite.
Thanks to the leader of the distant stars, Thanks (ω)~
