Chapter 333 The Magic Blade that Pierces the Sky
The next day, although the topic of the Winter Festival Competition was already hot on the Internet, Tilan did not feel it too much in reality. She slept a little longer in the morning and got up at about 9:30.
After eating the breakfast prepared by the two maids, Tilan sat under the big tree in the courtyard. It was a warm summer in the South District. The sun shone between the leaves, and the leaves were particularly transparent, like pieces of jade.
"Do you want to eat more, you guys?"
At Tilan's feet, five small light cotton birds with light gray fur were chirping, occasionally spreading their little wings, running in the grass, pecking everywhere, and curiously looking at the surrounding environment.
The girl squatted down, showing the five little guys the rice grains in her palm, letting them peck at them, and touching their fluffy fur with the other hand.
Compared with other birds, the fur on the light cotton birds is particularly dense, and the warmth effect is excellent. Their native species also live in relatively cold areas.
However, the light cotton bird is an improved extraordinary species after all, and it has strong adaptability. Now it can adapt to staying in the warm south.
After feeding these little guys, Tilan sat under the tree and occasionally flipped through the picture album in her arms. This was recently given to her by Dolores. Many of the pictures were taken from the planets with strange scenery in the Federation, including a world full of crystals under the cave, an endless red ocean, tall and towering craters, and small houses in the sea of trees, etc.
The Federation is very large, and not every area is full of technological creations. Many places also maintain their original appearance.
The warm summer breeze is very comfortable. The South District is close to the ocean. Even at the hottest time, it will not exceed 32°. The climate is pleasant, which is why it was later chosen as the capital.
After flipping through the picture album for a while, the girl continued to lean against the tree for a nap. During this time, several birds also snuggled up to her side and half buried their heads in their wings to sleep.
In this way, at around three o'clock in the afternoon, Tilan woke up slowly and took the little guys back to the cool house.
After replying to some of the arrangements for today through her personal terminal, she went to the backyard and used a wooden sword to simply comb and familiarize herself with the several sets of sword techniques and skills she knew. Then she came back to take a shower, changed into the combat dress she would wear for tonight's competition, and then took a hovercraft to the gathering point on campus, ready to set off.
At 5 o'clock, the convoy of Edes Academy set off and headed towards the competition venue.
At 6 o'clock, the audience at the competition venue gradually took their seats.
At 7 o'clock, tonight's individual competition began.
Fireworks erupted, and the host's high-spirited voice resounded throughout the venue again, and then read out the names that everyone was looking forward to.
"Please welcome our most shining and anticipated contestants to enter!"
For a moment, the lights swayed, and the eight doors in the venue opened, and a student walked out of each of them.
The lights in the venue dimmed, and eight golden light beams followed these students stepping onto the stage step by step. They were divided into eight directions, and each had his own small platform, and the small platforms were also eight colors.
Unlike the previous elimination rounds, this time the eight people will fight multiple times and enter the finals based on their respective points.
"The draw is complete. In the first match, Krenchen from Crystal Grid Academy will face Wokard from Saint Ingo Academy."
The referee announced, and then the only contestant from Crystal Grid Academy who entered the quarterfinals came on stage. He was wearing a long coat with a white base and blue edges, his hands in his pockets, and a monocle for analysis on his nose. This glass was connected to a personal auxiliary AI that could help him calculate and locate.
On the other side, a blond student from Saint Ingo Academy also came on stage. He had shoulder-length blond hair, but it was tied into one strand and fell behind him. Judging from his ears, he should have elf blood, but judging from his angular face, his temperament was rather cold and indifferent, which was very different from the elegance and gentleness of the common elves.
Both of them were people who didn't talk much. They didn't say a word after they came on stage. Even when the referee announced the start, they didn't move immediately, but stood still.
After half a minute, it seemed that both sides had made some decisions. Krenqin took his hand out of his pocket, and a silver knife danced between his fingers, the silver light flashing and dangerous. On the opposite side, Wokard took out a pair of precious gloves and slowly put them on himself, not caring about the possible surprise attack of the other party.
At this time, Krenqin moved. The silver knife in his hand suddenly stopped, and then he held it in his hand.
A white halo appeared on the blade. After he took it out, he deflected and carved it in the air. One by one, white marks appeared in the air, like cracks in a transparent crystal, and a little light shone through the handwriting.
"It's a very unpopular secret method. With the help of a special prop, it temporarily breaks the gap in space, and then uses these gaps in space to complete a special magic circle and achieve a special effect."
Some of the audience in the audience were knowledgeable and recognized the origin of this kind of magic.
Soon, Waccard, who had put on the gloves, took action. Two short swords appeared in his hands. Almost instantly, he rushed towards Krenqin. Almost at the same time, extremely fine lasers shot out from the hidden gaps in various corners of the battlefield, either hitting Waccard or blocking him.
These lasers passed through Waccard's body, burning black marks, but with the resistance of Sequence 5, it was not enough to kill him.
After being attacked, Waccard did not stop. His two swords crossed and passed Krenqin's position. The two of them fought in close combat.
It was obvious that Krenqin was not good at close combat, but the space secret technique he mastered could make his body distorted. In the opponent's attack, he always staggered a few centimeters at various angles, making it difficult for Waccard to grasp his true position. Therefore, he avoided the key parts and only suffered some minor injuries.
At the same time, after holding on for more than ten seconds, Krenqin finished preparing the magic circle carved by the silver knife in his hand. His figure flashed and appeared above the sky, pulling away from Waccard.
Then he poured magic power into the silver knife in his hand, and the blade light extended like a lightsaber, becoming a straight long knife.
The blade rotated in the air, and then suddenly inserted into the space gap beside him, and then the blades pierced out from around Wokard's side, like a performer being pierced in a magic box.
The two swords rotated, and the light blue blood veins that emerged made the blades extremely sharp, and they had a special magic-breaking ability, which crushed the piercing blades. Even so, Wokard was pierced three times and his face turned pale.
After dodging this killing move, Wokard moved his body and turned into a streamer of lightning on the ground, completely not giving Krenqin a chance to aim and locate. Then the wounds on his body gradually stopped bleeding. The self-healing ability of the natural sequence was not bad. If it was a protracted battle, he would not lose the upper hand.
Seeing this, Krenqin put away the long blade light that consumed a lot of energy, and then took out three small magic cube crystals from the inside of the collar of his coat and threw them out.
The three crystals flew into the night sky, expanded and deformed, forming three focusing prisms, which gathered the Aigeka particles in the night wind, and then condensed magic power to shoot down, spreading rapidly on the ground. A huge and complicated magic circle took shape on the ground, covering the entire battlefield. Wokard, who was dodging and running in it, encountered more and more resistance. Not only his speed, but also his magic power became more and more difficult to recover. Invisible constraints slowly descended.
Such a magic circle was like a giant's palm slowly rising and closing, slowly holding Wokard who was jumping and dodging on it.
In the end, Wokard, who lost his speed, was pierced by several blades pouring out of the gap in space and was declared defeated.
"Crystal Grid Academy wins!"
The first game of tonight's competition ended.
