Chapter 347 The Moon in the Night Sky
After the first battle between Edes Academy and Swarm of Bees, the second battle was between Crystal Grid Academy and Thunder Edge. The two academies had their own strengths. As a preparatory military academy, Thunder Edge Academy had a very high efficiency in cooperation and tactical matching between students. Crystal Grid Academy fully utilized the advantages of positional warfare, built a three-dimensional barrier on the spot, and then the students successively made cannons, and bombed the opponent's array with hundreds of shots.
In the middle and late stages of the battle, Crystal Grid Academy's artillery positions were still more powerful and defeated Thunder Edge Academy.
The third battle was between Saint Ingo and Leisa Academy. Although Leisa Academy had many light feather sequences and many means of healing and recovery, real battles were not games, and skills could not be restored in one second. Leisa Academy, which lacked short-term burst lethality, was easily defeated by Saint Ingo. During this period, Seraphiel also thought about breaking through on her own, but with Sevillara present, she still could not achieve effective results.
After the first round of three games, the second round was between Edes Academy and Lelisa Academy. Because of Tilan's ability as a singer, Edes Academy easily won.
There were no major twists and turns in the next few rounds. As long as Tilan could hold back the opponent's main force, such as Seraphiel and Levitor, her students could defeat the opponent.
If we don't count the top academy geniuses, and only consider the academy students' own team battle ability, Saint Ingo and Swarm Bee Leader are the first echelon, followed by Edes and Jingge, and finally Lelisa and Thunderbolt. This situation is roughly consistent with the ranking of the academy.
Saint Ingo has the best students and the most and best educational resources, followed by Swarm Bee Leader. In addition, the academy's characteristic Leader Bee Secret Method is also specially designed for team battles, so it can be roughly on par with Saint Ingo in team competitions.
Edes currently has a tendency to catch up, but it will take time to settle down before it can gradually catch up with Saint Ingo's extremely talented peers.
Crystal Grid Academy is more like a scientific research institution. Many of its students' future careers are related to technology and scientific research. Fighting is just a side job. They are not completely obsessed with it. Many respected figures in the academy do not participate in the Winter Festival Competition because they are really not good at fighting.
The strength of Lei Lisa Academy is not bad, but the number of students is only one-third of the average number of other academies, and the team competition requires 72 people, unlike other academies that can choose from a large group of excellent students.
Thunder Front Academy has the lowest entry threshold among the six academies, and it also has the least technology and resources. However, most of the students are hardworking. Under semi-military management, they have strong discipline and unity. Even when facing other academies, they will not retreat or give up.
In the next two rounds of battles, Edes Academy met Crystal Grid Academy and Thunder Front Academy successively, and both won the battles.
In the second game of the fifth round, Edes Academy finally faced Saint Ingo Academy. At present, both schools are leading by a large score. Whether they win or lose, they will enter the finals. In other words, this game is just a warm-up match, and the decisive battle will come later.
"I always feel that this year's team competition is not as exciting as previous years." Someone in the audience commented.
"Because the previous individual competition was too dazzling." A companion beside him shook his head.
"Although there were some geniuses in the past, the gap between them was not so big, and the tactics that could be used in individual competitions were limited."
"Team competitions are different. The academy will spend a lot of time formulating tactics, and will conduct drills and training before the game. The teams will cooperate with each other and can use many unexpected large-scale spells to change the situation of the battle. Therefore, in most cases, team competitions will be much more exciting, and there will be many variables."
"But this year is different. Tilan, Seviara, Seraphiel, and Levito, these four people would have easily won the championship in previous years, but this year, they have to cruelly eliminate each other."
"One person can match the other 20 ordinary contestants. Their existence has greatly affected the situation in the team competition, making the situation changed by the application of tactics not as obvious as before."
"It's like in previous wars, the generals of both sides racked their brains to arrange tactics and fight wits and courage. Later, one side made technological progress. No matter what conspiracy or trick you have, I will bomb you with a nuclear bomb and flatten the entire surface of the opposite side, and no tactics are needed."
"That was what happened to Themisia. She almost overwhelmed all the students on the other side. All your plans, efforts, struggles, and wills were nothing but jokes. This situation was a huge blow to people, so the morale of Edes Academy was broken that year, and it was in a slump for several years."
Just as everyone was discussing, the students from both sides entered the scene.
Tilan looked at the formation of Saint Ingo Academy on the opposite side and found that Seviara was just standing in the back like her, without taking any action. It seemed that Saint Ingo was going to save its trump card for the next game.
Just as she was thinking, the battle tonight also began.
Perhaps both sides were holding back their anger, and the students of Edes and Saint Ingo had the idea of beating each other up to wash away the shame.
Saint Ingo was unwilling to accept the failure of the previous individual competition, and Edes was unwilling to be suppressed by Saint Ingo for many years. The two sides disliked each other.
During the competition, Tilan played the piano again, giving her companions a frosty wind-like protection to gain an advantage in the battle. In the face of such a situation, Sevilla still stood there without taking any action, watching her students being defeated and then losing the game.
Although this contrast made Edes Academy win easily, they were not so happy at the same time, as they always felt that Saint Ingo was ambushing and calculating something.
When many viewers thought that the competition tonight would end boringly, the finals finally arrived, and the time was already past 10 o'clock in the evening.
Before the finals, the competition was suspended for 20 minutes to allow all members to adjust to the best state, and then the members of Edes Academy and Saint Ingo Academy entered the venue.
"It's different this time."
Bennett on Edes' side looked at the Saint Ingo contestants flying out from the opposite side. They were all in pairs, wearing beautiful uniforms with white backgrounds and gold edges. Each of them held a long sword, and the two-color butterfly wings with gold and silver shining behind them were spread out, hovering in the air in the venue.
"The art of cutting double swords." Someone said the tactics of Saint Ingo. This is a well-known art from the 'Cut Double Swords Academy' and is famous for its dangerous lethality.
Unlike other secret arts, this kind of secret art requires two people to cooperate, and when the golden and silver swords dance in the sky, they are like a pair of scissors that constantly strangle, cutting everything sharply. It is one of the top three dangerous extraordinary factions in the natural sequence, which greatly makes up for the weakness of the natural sequence's weak combat power.
"I saw Saint Ingo use this kind of skill in the previous competition. I didn't expect them to let all the contestants learn this kind of secret method this time."
"However, even if there is an advantage in this aspect, it will be difficult to defeat Tilan."
"The competition begins!" When everyone was still thinking about how Saint Ingo would break the deadlock, the referee's announcement interrupted everyone's thoughts and turned their attention to the scene again.
Tonight, Seviara held a gold and silver sword in each hand. Her strength was enough. She didn't need to cooperate with others. She could use the skill of cutting double swords alone.
After the battle began, the members of Saint Ingo Academy swooped down from the sky hand in hand. The shining gold and silver swords were like wings. When facing the Edes students, they slashed in an instant, like a sharp sickle cutting through a wheat field. Many of the barriers and weapons held up by the students were shredded and cut off, and then the swords slashed, and one by one the Edes students fell down.
Something was wrong. Even with the secret blessing of the "cutting double swords", the strength should not be so different. Without thinking, Tilan pulled out the cold sword blade, and Seviara, who was swooping down from the sky, also rushed down at this moment, and the two swords collided fiercely.
The battle between the two began. After the fight, the speed of the two became faster and faster, and the others could only see a few afterimages. This was almost another remake of the previous individual competition, but this time Seviara did not have the protection of the "butterfly dream", and she did not transform into a fairy form.
That form is OK for one-on-one, but if facing a large number of multiple opponents, with Seviara's current physical condition, it will collapse in advance after two times.
On the other side, Tilan's situation is that if she wants to sing the second movement and make her own form close to the mythical fairy, it will take a lot of time to prepare. This time, the opponent is not unconscious and sleeping in the butterfly cocoon. Seviara has been fighting closely, so Tilan has no time to sing this song.
So the situation returned to the previous competition between the two, and each used conventional fighting skills.
"Cut the double swords: Branch and cut the leaves" After the swords of Seviara crossed, a green light appeared on their blades. After the swords collided with Tilan's, the green light still slashed down, leaving wounds on the girl. Although the power was average, the unexpected effect was very good. This was also the first time that Tilan was injured in the team competition.
"Bluebird's Inheritance: Blue Feathers"
In the night sky, Tilan dodged Seviara's second sword swing, and then quickly retreated, her body and her skirt flipped in the night sky, until the silver sword suddenly drew a sharp sword arc, and feathers that gradually changed from light white to bright blue were also swayed at the same time, passing through the air, cutting through the members of Saint Ingo Academy, leaving wounds. The severe cold emitted after the flying feathers melted also slowed down many people's movements and actions.
With such support, Edes Academy finally stabilized the front line and barely survived the stranglehold of the flying swords.
Although she didn't understand what method Saint Ingo Academy used to make their contestants suddenly stronger, Tilan felt that she should also make an effort to even the situation. Otherwise, if she continued, she would be the only one from Edes Academy who survived to the end. Even if she won, it would be hard to convince people.
While dodging Sevilla's attack, Tilan finally found the right time and sang softly. In the night sky, her figure swayed, becoming more and more agile, and she gradually became more comfortable in Sevilla's stormy attack.
After experiencing the previous battle, the black-haired girl seemed to have grown up a little. She was still a little nervous when facing Sevilla a few days ago, but now she has slowly become relaxed.
Unless Sevilla uses the secret method of the Golden Country again to transform herself into a fairy, it will be difficult to threaten Tilan again. Even if she uses a new secret method, the final result may only cause the girl in front of her to suffer some harmless skin injuries and damage her clothes.
The intensity of the Winter Festival Competition was extremely high, but Tilan's growth was also very fast in the past few days, so fast that she herself did not realize that she had gradually stepped over that hurdle and left Sevilla behind.
In the past year and a half, she has learned a lot of things and mastered many secret methods. Her own innate abilities are even more powerful, but these things are piled together, and no one can force her to use them all, and it is difficult to detect the problems that may be hidden in them.
It was in these days of competitions that she constantly witnessed the fights between peers, and she also kept going on the field to fight with those top talents. These things she knew were rubbed in with each other, and were constantly tempered and tested like a branding iron. Finally, she was truly fully mastered and integrated.
At this moment, Tilan can integrate the virtualization skills of the Withering Sequence into every detail in the battle. When swinging the sword, it may be a physical entity half a second ago, but it will be virtualized in an instant. While dodging the attack, it will stagger its body, making it hard to defend. The swordsmanship has become more mysterious and unpredictable. She can split and use various moves at will, no longer constrained.
Tilan flashed in the night sky again, and the purple lightning flashed across the night sky. The long sword marks cut nearly ten Saint Ingo students in an instant. Then she tapped the ground with her toes and turned into a phantom to avoid Seviara's three consecutive turns of flapping wings. Then she swung her sword with her backhand. The edge of the sword blade was distorted and blurred, leaving a gap in the space where it was cut, causing Seviara who was chasing her to be injured. Then she turned around again, and four identical girls stabbed at the same time, making the injured Seviara exhausted. Finally, two swords penetrated Seviara's shoulders.
Regardless of the injured Seviara, Tilan soared into the night sky, slowly opened her hands, and the silver moonlight slowly emerged behind her, coating her hair and dress with a light silver-white color.
Under the huge full moon, the girl was like a tiny black dot suspended in the middle of the moon, and then the moonlight poured down, covering the entire venue, like a goddess in a fairy tale picture book, controlling and protecting this small world.
Such a battle has lost the initial passion and excitement. In the end, only her personal gorgeous solo is left. Maybe this is not what she wants, but there is no point in continuing to pretend.
Over the dark mountains, the bright moon slowly rises and begins to shine, cold and bright.
She is not the sun that shines everywhere and scorches. The light she emits is only to illuminate this dark night and let people see the possible direction of the future.
It is no longer that cold and frozen world. While people yearn for warmth, they are also afraid that the heat will burn themselves. Freedom is like an addictive poison that cannot be given up, nor is it willing to escape.
I am stuck. The individual competition in the front is written too gorgeously, reaching the peak of emotions. I don’t know what to write about the team competition in the back.
In addition, regarding some statements and concepts of this book, you can just take a look at it. Don’t delve into it, and don’t argue with me.
