Chapter 202: Restricted by Abilities

Su Rou’s live-stream almost collapsed.

“What the f***, who the heck told me that this was going to be an exciting fight? Who told me that the team from Jiangbin High School No. 3 is impressive?”

“I haven’t recovered from the shock yet. What happened just now?”

“What’s going on? I only went to pour a glass of water, and the competition has already ended?”

“Damn it, all you guys do is rave about the toxic healer. Have you all forgotten who the real Goddess is?”

“Han Jiangxue, my goddess. I may have really fallen in love with you.”

“Gao Junwei roared twice and Yu Zhen cast two rays of lightning. The competition then ended just like that? Hahahaha, that’s hilarious, hahahaha.”

“Gao Junwei did scream, he sounded so miserable…”

“I don’t feel any fluctuations in emotions. I’ve even recorded something secretly.”

“We’re just better at killing monsters, aren’t we? We can’t fight others at all and we’ll end up getting beaten up into a pulp, right?”

“Enough, cut it out. Everything only lasted 29 seconds and we didn’t give them the chance to cry for their parents…”

Su Rou slammed her hand against the table forcefully and yelled in a dignified and proud manner, “I’m so happy! Wonderful! I’m going to hold a lucky draw for a 29 yuan e-red-packet! Those who send ‘Hail The Mighty Goddess Xue’ in the pop-up messages will be entered in the lucky draw!”

“…”

“Haha, 29 yuan, you are so mean, host…”

“Host, do you think you’re patronizing beggars?”

“It’s only 29 yuan, I’m not going to get duped into sending any pop-up messages…”

“Hail The Mighty Goddess Xue!”

“Hail The Mighty Goddess Xue!”

“Hail The Mighty Goddess Xue!”

…

29 seconds!

What did 29 seconds mean?

Before the competition, everything that had been spreading around was completely destroyed. The people were expecting an exciting and wonderful battle like the end of the world. However, what happened in the end?

I’ve already removed my pants and you want me to look at this?

The host Sui Bian and the guest Mr. Wu looked at each other.

Sui Bian felt that his face was burning hot and he was feeling extremely embarrassed because he had just sung high praises about Jiangbin High School No. 3 and yet, they were terribly defeated.

“Are they that… that powerful!?!” Sui Bian exclaimed as he looked at Mr. Wu awkwardly, hinting for Mr. Wu to say something and give him an out.

Mr. Wu remained silent.

Sui Bian was speechless.

The entire scene became extremely awkward.

Mr. Wu suddenly covered his mouth and made a muffled voice.

“Eh! Eh! When I say Jiangbin High School, you say awesome!”

Mr. Wu said, “Jiangbin High School…”

Sui Bian answered, “Awesome…”

Mr. Wu said, “Jiangbin High School…”

Sui Bian answered, “Awesome…”

…

On the arena, Gao Junwei kneeled and crawled on the cold grass while his body trembled continuously. His once arrogant and sullen face was now full of dejection.

No one knew what he had experienced in Han Jiangxue’s Sky Smasher because there was nothing there at all.

Perhaps that was the problem.

It was because there was nothing there that Gao Junwei was behaving terribly now.

He was panting heavily and trying to catch his breath while his body shivered. He dared not look up at all.

The skin on his head was burnt by the Flame Torch Whip and his badly mangled flesh looked extremely horrendous. However, the physical pain was far less unbearable than the emotional.

He felt suffocated and struggling.

There was darkness within him, a void, coupled with despair and agony.

In a short period of less than half a minute, he seemed to have experienced a death sentence on earth.

However, he was the only one who knew about that. As the audience, the spectators on the grandstands, and the viewers at home would never be able to understand the state that Gao Junwei was in at this moment, because they did not experience the same physical and emotional torment.

They simply felt that he did not seem as strong and formidable as he did on the surface.

Han Jiangxue looked down at Gao Junwei beside her feet and felt a sense of boredom.

She wanted to end the battle quickly, and she was also confident that she could imprison one of the members of the opposing team with her own abilities.

Otherwise, she could also threaten one of the members and hold them hostage, resulting in a 4 vs 3 fight where the opponents would be outnumbered. She could also inflict severe emotional pressure on them.

What Han Jiangxue did not expect was that when she did all of that, her teammates had also worked together to attack the output fighter of the opposing team, almost at the same time.

She was quick and smooth.

Han Jiangxue turned to look at the battlefield in the distance, to see that the once calm and wise commander Zhang Mingming looked extremely embarrassed.

Perhaps, Zhang Mingming still had no idea if he should shoulder the blame for their failure in this competition.

Did he underestimate the enemy? Was he careless?

No, he was not.

Was there something wrong with Zhang Mingming’s battle strategy and commands, then?

Maybe, maybe not. No matter what, aiming to kill the only Medical Awakened of the opposing team was also a battle tactic.

Even if Zhang Mingming was wrong, would they have succeeded by changing their target to Han Jiangxue?

His biggest mistake was to think that Han Jiangxue, a person who would pursue stability, would never take the risk by using Sky Smasher during such a competition.

The sadder thing for Zhang Mingming was that there was no way he could stop Han Jiangxue despite having realized that she would use Sky Smasher.

Han Jiangxue rolled her eyes and looked at the dejected and helpless Shield Warrior, Zhang Weiliang.

Han Jiangxue looked past Zhang Weiliang’s figure and saw Yu Zhen’s figure on the stretcher.

At this time, Yu Zhen was no longer as arrogant as before. Her clothes were tattered and she was dripping with blood. Blood was also flowing from the corner of her mouth, her eyes were dark and glassed over, and she was staring at the hazy sky in shock.

Before, she was the powerful figure looking down on everyone in the Arsenal while dominating and defeating her enemies with the Dark Blue Scepter.

However, after meeting Han Jiangxue’s team, she was given a Blessing from Jiang Xiao, which allowed Zhang Hui to seize the opportunity to throw out two Flame Arcs, causing her to be blasted out of the Arsenal.

The Medical Star Warriors of the competition were indeed very strong. They healed the passed out and heavily injured Yu Zhen, allowing her to be fully engaged in the semi-finals while being in her best state.

Within just one day, Yu Zhen was “admitted” and then “discharged” from the hospital.

However, she was discharged quickly, but she was also admitted soon again…

What could be done in 29 seconds?

Han Jiangxue could answer that question now.

Those 29 seconds could signify the change in fate for both teams.

Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Xiao seated on the ground and cutting off the vines around his ankle at this moment.

She walked towards him, and at the instant that she raised her leather boots, Gao Junwei began shivering like a startled bird and crawled away.

Han Jiangxue was slightly stunned and thought, Is this how a normal person should behave?

Is he that intimidated? He’s almost on the verge of breaking down…

Has Gao Junwei developed a psychological issue? Like claustrophobia or something? Was it because of my Sky Smasher?

Of course, Han Jiangxue did not deny that everyone would react differently to the threat of death.

In all fairness, if she were locked in a space coffin by her enemy who had control over her life, she would probably go hysterical as well.

Without any firsthand experience, who would know what would have happened?

Han Jiangxue was no longer interested in finding out Gao Junwei’s mental state. Instead, she walked towards Jiang Xiao while nodding at the proud Xia Yan. She then shook her head at the calm Li Weiyi.

The sounds of something shattering could be heard from a separate room with a clear window in the military base.

“Captain!?!” a soldier exclaimed.

“Shut up!” a female voice barked, trying to suppress her anger.

In the reception room, the wooden coffee table was shattered, and broken pieces of porcelain cups were scattered all over the place.

A middle-aged woman with short hair was sitting on the couch with a sullen expression. She clenched her right fist and shattered the cup in her hand. Blood and tea flowed out from her palm together with the sizzling sound of friction between broken porcelain pieces.

The woman exhaled deeply after a long time as she shivered slightly. Suppressing her emotions, she kept her eyes fixed on the TV screen in front of her.

The scene of the spectators applauding enthusiastically and the faces of the proud victors were displayed on the screen.

Although everything had just ended, she still couldn’t forget the sight of Gao Junwei trembling in fear.

When the girl took a step, he panicked and crawled away like a bullied stray dog.

“Useless garbage!” the short-haired woman hollered as she sat on the couch and glowered at the television. She opened her bloody palm and flung the broken debris away before picking out the broken shards from her badly mangled fleshed with her left hand.

However, before she had even cleaned her right hand thoroughly, she suddenly sprung up in exasperation and kicked away the mess on the ground, strode forward to the TV, and smashed it with a heavy punch…

In the arena, Jiang Xiao, seated on the ground and removing the vines, suddenly shivered.

Han Jiangxue came right next to him and said softly, “The snow is getting heavier. When we go back, put on a down jacket.”

“Okay.” Jiang Xiao expressed assent while maniacally cutting away the vines, thinking to himself that Zhang Mingming was really out to kill him.

The vines were almost intertwined around Jiang Xiao’s thigh. They were dense, intricate, and flexible, completely restricting Jiang Xiao’s actions. Even though Zhang Mingming had already left the arena, Jiang Xiao had yet to break free from the vines.

Fortunately, Xia Yan attacked at the right time and used her Flame Arc to stall some time. Otherwise, Jiang Xiao would have definitely been charred by the lightning…

Bang!

A blazing wooden giant sword was inserted directly into the ground, and she removed everything.

Xia Yan flicked her short, chestnut-colored hair, on which there were some snowflakes, and said impatiently, “Come on, don’t let my Xuexue suffer in the cold with you.”

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.

Xia Yan chided. “What are you looking at? Hurry up.”

Jiang Xiao answered, “I want to hurry too, but I’m restricted by my abilities.”

Xia Yan was a little stunned as she felt that there was something amiss with his words.
