Chapter 28 Death Squad: Cai'er vs. Wang Yuanyuan
Holy Alliance Grand Trial Grounds, Magic Trial Zone.
When the ten contestants of the second group in the finals stepped into this exclusive venue filled with rich magical elements, led by the staff, the atmosphere in the air was already extremely oppressive.
The reason is simple: after the group draw was announced, the high-ranking officials of the various temples and the teachers in charge of the teams couldn't help but gasp when they saw the list of the second group.
This group was unhesitatingly dubbed the "Death Group" by everyone.
one.
The final round-robin tournament of the Demon Hunter Selection Competition has extremely brutal rules: the ten finalists will engage in one-on-one single-round battles against the other nine members of their group over the next nine days. Ultimately, they will be ranked according to the number of wins.
What's most disheartening is that only the top two players from each group can guarantee a spot in the knockout stage and advance to the final round of 16!
In previous competitions, having two or three fifth-tier experts in a group was already considered fierce competition. But this year, in this damned second group, out of ten people, a whopping five have reached the fifth tier!
The fifth-tier knights of the Knight Temple, the fifth-tier mages of the Magic Temple, the fifth-tier berserkers of the Warrior Temple, the fifth-tier discipline priests of the Priest Temple, and—the fifth-tier blind female assassins of the Assassin Temple!
What does this mean? It means that even if you are a top-tier fifth-order prodigy, at least three people in this meat grinder-like group will be ruthlessly eliminated, unable to even reach the top sixteen! It's absolutely terrifying!
Cherrie quietly sat down in her assigned spot in the contestants' area.
Although her empty eyes were covered by a black veil, she could clearly "see" everything around her thanks to her keen spiritual perception.
Among the contestants in this group, besides her, there were two other girls who caught Cai'er's very slight attention.
One of the girls sat in the corner. She was very petite and wore a large robe from the Soul Temple. She looked very young and was delicate and frail, like a frightened little rabbit, as if a gust of wind could blow her away.
The other girl was completely different. She was tall with long, strong legs, and her long black hair was tied into a neat high ponytail. Although she was a girl, her muscle lines were full of explosive power, not exaggerated, but exuding a heroic and wild beauty.
The most striking feature was the enormous shield carried on the tall girl's back. The shield was a heavy, dark silver, even taller and wider than she was. Instead of smooth edges, it was inlaid with extremely sharp, serrated blades; it was less a defensive shield and more like a massive, exaggerated battle axe!
"Round 1, Match 1 of the round-robin tournament!"
As everyone sized each other up and became wary, the referee in the center of the arena raised his right hand high, his deep voice echoing throughout the entire magic trial arena: "Assassin Number One versus Warrior Number Four! Please come forward!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a slight commotion arose in the contestants' area.
Li Xin, who was sitting not far away, suddenly sat up straight, her gaze fixed on the two people who had stood up.
She could keenly sense that the warrior number four, carrying a giant shield, possessed a volcanic power within him; while the blind girl wielding a green bamboo staff was like a bottomless, icy pool. Both girls were extraordinary, but their relative strengths and weaknesses were impossible to discern before they clashed.
Both girls are stunningly beautiful, yet they present two completely opposite styles.
Wang Yuanyuan strode onto the arena. With each step she took, the heavy shield emitted a deep metallic hum. She had a fiery figure and an imposing presence, like a female war goddess.
Cai'er, holding a green bamboo staff, wore a long purple dress and a black veil. Her figure was so slender that she seemed to break at any moment, like a solitary orchid blooming in the dark night.
At this moment, the eyes of the other eight contestants below the stage were almost all focused on Cai'er.
They were all filled with curiosity about the blind girl's strength. In this group, Cai'er was the only assassin. Because they came from the other five temples and hadn't witnessed the Assassin Temple's preliminary rounds, they didn't know just how strong Cai'er truly was.
Everyone knows that the title "Assassin Number One" signifies a genuine fifth-tier cultivation level. However, can a fifth-tier assassin who has lost his sight truly unleash the combat power expected of a fifth-tier assassin when facing a giant shield warrior renowned for his defense and strength?
"Warrior Temple, Wang Yuanyuan, please enlighten me." Wang Yuanyuan slammed the giant shield on her back onto the arena in front of her with a "boom," and several cracks immediately appeared on the hard magic stone ground. Her gaze was fixed on the blind girl opposite her, her eyes filled with high fighting spirit.
Cai'er stood quietly in place, without giving her name, but simply raised the green bamboo cane in her hand slightly, indicating that the other party could begin.
"The match begins!" The referee's arm swung down suddenly.
"boom""
The moment the referee finished speaking, Wang Yuanyuan's body erupted with an extremely violent silver spiritual power. Instead of defending, she gripped the handles of the giant shield with both hands, and like a bulldozer, charged towards Caiji with overwhelming momentum!
Warriors are known for their aggressive and wide-ranging fighting style, especially Wang Yuanyuan, who wields such a unique and powerful weapon. She knew that the advantage of an assassin lay in agility and explosive power, so she immediately intended to use overwhelming force and attack range to completely shut down Cai'er's escape route.
"What a fierce charge!" Li Xin exclaimed in surprise from below the stage. Even knights of the same level would not dare to take a direct hit from the charge of such a massive shield. How would this frail blind female assassin dodge it?
However, a scene that shocked everyone occurred.
Facing Wang Yuanyuan, who was hurtling towards her like a moving mountain, Cai'er showed no intention of dodging. She stood still, without even activating the stealth skills most commonly used by assassins.
"You're asking for death!" A flash of anger crossed Wang Yuanyuan's eyes. How dare the other party be so arrogant? Did they really think her Giant Spirit God Shield was just for show?
As the distance closed to five meters, Wang Yuanyuan roared, and the silver light on the giant shield shone brightly. A thick silver beam of light suddenly burst out from the surface of the shield, which was her powerful skill - Sky-Splitting Cannon!
This is not only an impact of spiritual energy, but also contains a domineering power that can tear space apart.
