Chapter 362: Counterattack!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The two commentators roared to express their shock and confusion. The comments on the live-stream were almost the same.

No one knew why Wang Xiao and the others would make such a choice. After all, based on the current situation, even hiding until the end of the competition would be much better than hitting a rock with an egg like this and being completely wiped out.

It was not only the audience who could not figure it out. The participants in the secret realm were at a loss too.

Looking at the [Ice Thunder Horned Wolfl that was charging towards him, Su Qingmo’s first reaction was that there was something wrong. He immediately waved his hand and gestured for everyone to retreat to prevent them from falling into the other party’s “scheme”.

Fang Tianyu and the others had the same idea. With a thought from Han

Bufan, the giantized [Holy Archangel] flapped its wings and retreated. At the same time, a dense holy light appeared around its body, constantly guarding against the sudden attack of the [Lava Ripper].

At the center of the battlefield.

Seeing that both academies had chosen to defend, Wang Xiao’s heart, which had been in his throat, calmed down. His expression turned cold as he shouted sternly, “Brother Xuan, it’s up to you!”

Before he could finish his sentence, the bodies of the [Ice Thunder Horned Wolf] and the [Lava Ripper] turned into light and dissipated.

Just as everyone was in a daze, Gao Lixuan growled and stomped on the ground with one foot. A khaki-colored energy ring immediately spread out from under his feet!

Buzz—

With a sharp buzzing sound, the earth-colored energy ring almost instantly swept hundreds of meters away!

Before Kaiyang and the others could react, the energy ring pierced through their bodies. Although they were not injured, it made everyone’s expressions turn ugly!

“Stop him! We can’t let him activate his [Lord Talent]!”

Su Qingmo was the first to react and shouted anxiously. The soldiers of the Flowing Cloud Academy received the order and immediately ran towards Gao Lixuan!

Immediately after, Fang Tianyu also reacted. Han Bufan raised his hand and waved. The [Holy Archangel] immediately began to summon the [Holy Light Sanction]. Countless holy light as thin as an ox’s hair appeared and targeted Gao Lixuan!

Unfortunately, it was too late for them to realize that something was wrong.

“We’ll take your points first!”

Gao Lixuan smiled sinisterly and shouted. His eyes, which were hidden under his bangs, immediately flashed with a terrifying light!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

There were a series of dull sounds. With Gao Lixuan’s position as the center, the ground within a radius of six hundred meters suddenly began to crack inch by inch!

The small crevice split into a bigger one, and the huge crevice fused into a larger crevice. Countless lava and gravel poured down like a waterfall, powerlessly falling into the pitch-black abyss…

In the blink of an eye, the area within a radius of 600 meters turned into a huge, bottomless pit. Even the countless lava that poured down could not illuminate this place at all!

Be it Flowing Cloud or Kaiyang, all the participants fell into the pit along with the ground beneath them. The [Holy Archangel], who had the ability to fly, stopped in the air for a moment before shattering into light with a bang.

This meant that its owner had been eliminated.

Silence. Be it Kaiyang City’s public square or the live broadcast room, when they saw the huge pit that even exceeded the scope of the camera, all the viewers were stunned on the spot as if they had been struck by lightning.

After half a minute, one of the commentators finally reacted and whispered in a strange tone, “They all… perished together?”

The other commentator nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw something and his pupils constricted. “That’s not right! Director! Please zoom in!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the live broadcast quickly approached the center of the huge pit.

Only then did the audience realize that the ground had not completely collapsed. In the center of the huge pit, there was a stone pillar less than two meters in diameter, like a needle inserted into the center of the abyss.

Wang Xiao, Zhou Xiruo, Yi Han, and Gao Lixuan stood side by side on this “island”. Each of them had a calm expression on their faces—or rather, they were dumbfounded.

“Brother… Brother Xuan…

Yi Han swallowed his saliva and probed, “You did such a large-scale collapse in an instant?”

“How could that be possible! Before we appeared, I used my [Lord Talent] to dig out the bottom, leaving only a thickness of about two meters. Then, I used my talent to hold them together. This way, when I stop, the ground will naturally collapse.”

Gao Lixuan gave a simple explanation and turned to look at Wang Xiao. “How long until the competition ends?”

Wang Xiao opened the panel and took a look. “It will end in a minute or so.” “Around a minute…

Gao Lixuan grinned awkwardly. “Help me go on stage to receive the award later. ”

“Me?”

Wang Xiao was stunned. Before he could react, he saw Gao Lixuan’s eyes roll back. He had overexerted himself and fainted!

At the same time, outside the secret realm, the screen showing the points ranking also changed.

“My Heavenly God! Yuheng Academy has made a comeback!”

The commentator shouted excitedly. He was even more excited than Wang Xiao and the others when they started the “two head-on battles”. “Although I don’t know how they did it! But they have indeed made a comeback!”

“Through the system’s judgment, we can see that all the participants from

Kaiyang Academy and Flowing Cloud Academy have been eliminated ! ”

“Currently, the total points of the two academies have been locked. Kaiyang Academy is ranked third with a total of 23,050 points. Flowing Cloud Academy is ranked second with a total of 25,700 points!”

“Lastly, let us congratulate Yuheng Academy for successfully ascending to the championship with an overwhelming advantage of 70,650 points after obtaining the points from the other two academies!”

“Oh!!!”

The audience erupted into intense cheers, but the Academy Heads in the stands had different expressions.

Although they were completely wiped out in the end, the Flowing Cloud Academy’s ranking had increased by one. The Academy Head was still overjoyed. He pretended to be deep and said to the other Academy Heads, ‘Great fight.”

In stark contrast, the Academy Head of Kaiyang Academy, Qin Kaiyang, frowned and had a dark expression. His entire body exuded a terrifying aura.

When the other Academy Heads saw this, they tactfully did not disturb him.

After all, ever since Kaivang Academy was established, it had been occupying the throne of “first place” for a long time. Now that it had fallen two places to third place, one could imagine how Qin Kaiyang felt.

However, what these Academy Heads did not know was that Qin Kaiyang’s gloomy expression was not only because of the drop in ranking.

Looking at the empty chair beside him, Qin Kaiyang’s frown deepened. Previously, when Huang Tingwei left, he thought that he had something to do and didn’t pay much attention to it. He didn’t expect him to not return.

At the same time, Qin Kaiyang also noticed that Chen Jinrong had left for a long time, and that an extremely boring live broadcast had also happened during this period of time.

He put two and two together. Qin Kaiyang looked at Chen Jinrong, who was smiling and clapping on the commentary platform.. Although he did not know what was going on, his intuition told him that something big had happened!
