Chapter 222 Xingluo vs. Crist
Chapter 222 Xingluo vs. Crist
Xingluo shook his head helplessly, he still had to go on the field, he thought that it was a natural thing for the vice-president to win the game and get the opponent's recognition to become the captain, but he didn't expect that the two of them ended up in a tie at the last moment. He was secretly glad that he didn't bet on the vice-president, but instead gave all the magic cores to himself. However, this seemed to put more pressure on him, because the opponent was a genuine intermediate sky knight, and a magician could not exert his full strength on such a small arena. Fortunately, he was used to close combat and generally did not chant, so the distance disadvantage did not affect him too much.
When Xingluo walked onto the stage, cheers broke out from the audience. After all, he was representing Sunset Academy to face the opponent, and the audience could see that clearly.
A middle-aged knight walked up to him, about 180cm tall. He was wearing a simple and exquisite armor, which was engraved with fine magic patterns. It was obviously a magical equipment, exuding an ancient and solemn atmosphere. The armor was just put on, and before that, he was wearing a white silk shirt with delicate embroidery on the cuffs, which set off his muscular body.
He wore a pair of loose and soft white trousers, which showed his calmness when the trouser legs swung up and down. Long boots wrapped his strong and flexible feet, and the boots were carved with delicate patterns, symbolizing his noble status.
She wore a royal blue hat with a wide brim that blocked the sunlight from her face. The hat was embellished with sparkling pearls and silver ornaments, which sparkled with a psychedelic glow in the sun.
Xingluo didn't expect that the person opposite him was a noble. He took out his armor and put it on slowly when he got to the ring. The other person's fair skin was a little dazzling under the sunlight. It was obvious that the other person took care of himself regularly. This was also a compulsory course for every noble. They had to spend a lot of time taking care of themselves every day, no matter if they were men or women.
After the other party put on the armor, the whole outfit reflected the majesty and solemnity of the ancient knights, showing their brave and fearless temperament. His dress was simple but gorgeous, highlighting the nobility of his young knight.
Xingluo looked at him with interest and waited patiently until he had put on his armor. "Xingluo, please teach me."
The other party saluted with a knight's salute and said, "I am Christ, please give me your guidance."
Xingluo didn't know if the other party was really a noble or just pretending. Anyway, this outfit was very intimidating, especially the other party's slow movements, as if he was on a picnic. Xingluo shook his head helplessly: "Let's get started!"
After the referee announced the start of the game, Xingluo rushed over impatiently. Christ was slightly stunned. He did not expect that a mage on the opposite side would charge towards a knight head-on.
Christ hurriedly launched a defense, apparently unprepared for Xingluo's attack. In the first round, Christ was scratched at the connection of his waist armor, revealing a large area of snow-white skin, but fortunately he was not injured.
After Xingluo succeeded in his attack, he did not pursue the victory, but instead kept his distance and began to cast magic. The attack that the opponent had just organized all failed after Xingluo left. Christ didn't know whether the opponent retreated after careful consideration or did it casually. He looked a little confused. If it was the latter, he would naturally not be afraid. If it was the former, then he might be facing a very powerful opponent.
The magic array behind Xingluo flashed by, and it was obvious that it was not a coincidence, but the help of the Starry Sky Array. The Starry Sky Array did not flow to the entire human society, but was circulated among the top leaders of major colleges and magic guilds. Christ was obviously no longer among them.
After Xingluo blocked a round of attacks from Christ, he began to cast counterattack magic. Although the opponent was a sky knight, Xingluo was not afraid. He only thought about how to defeat the opponent.
Xingluo's Space Rift Blade arrived as promised, and the opponent began to switch to attack. After all, Xingluo had never learned how to cast magic, so he started to use instant magic again.
Xingluo, whose magic power level is far above his own, can only use this kind of magic with strong single-target power and high attack frequency. As for magic involving time such as the space-time bomb, he does not intend to use it today. After all, there are so many eyes watching. Although Xingluo is not in his prime, he is fighting back and forth with the Sky Knight, as if the two are having a daily competition.
Christ didn't let Xingluo wait too long and soon launched an attack on Xingluo. He turned out to be a Templar Knight who could even be promoted to a Paladin in the future. He was only under the leadership of the Pope. Half of the combat power of the Holy See of Light was in the Paladins.
Xingluo did not expect that the opponent was actually a Paladin. It was his first time fighting against a Paladin. He looked over with a serious look in his eyes. But that was all. After all, for Xingluo, defeating the opponent was easy. What he needed to consider was how to defeat the opponent without exposing his cards. He had already prepared a plan before, but it was still a little short of meeting the Paladin.
The starry sky diagram appeared and disappeared, and her brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to fight against the Paladin.
Someone in the audience muttered, "Just admit defeat! It's a waste of time to continue fighting!"
Unlike ordinary knights, paladins have many abilities. If it weren't for the level limit, they would have been upgraded long ago.
Paladins win more than they lose against opponents of the same level and rarely get defeated. After all, they have many auxiliary magics, and can be considered as practicing both magic and martial arts. However, they do not need to practice any magic, they can just pray to the God of Light. With the blessing of magic, it is difficult for anyone to defeat them. Therefore, even though the audience had a good impression of Xingluo, they still couldn't help but make a sound.
Xingluo was secretly delighted when he saw that his opponent was actually a Paladin. Compared to winning or losing, he cared more about improving his strength. Especially since he was fighting against a Paladin, he could accumulate a lot of experience. He had an angel puppet, and he hoped to increase the power of the angel puppet by observing it closely.
Christ obviously didn't expect Xingluo to have thought so much. Compared to his previous slowness, his movements at this time were not slow at all.
"Holy Light Technique!"
Tiffany smiled and said, "Do you know what Holy Light is?"
"Okay, everyone look here!"
Most of the people under the podium were students from the Moonfall Intelligence Organization. They sat there obediently, looking at Tiffany.
"Holy Light can summon divine light to heal the wounds of oneself or others, and can also illuminate dark environments. They can use light to create shields to block attacks, and can also release powerful beams to knock down enemies. In short, Holy Light is a growing magic. The deeper the caster's understanding of light and the more pious they are to the Lord, the greater the power will be. There was even a Holy Light spell that purified a demon in the Great Magic Age."
"What? Teacher Tiffany, a basic magic like Holy Light can actually purify demons!?"
"I can see you're not listening carefully. I've already told you that Holy Light is a sustainable magic, and the power of magic depends on the strength of the caster!!! Go stand in the back and listen. Your snoring just now interrupted my train of thought."
A dark-skinned child stood up embarrassedly, and everyone around burst into laughter.
Tiffany used her free time to teach these orphans. She couldn't bear to see these children only caring about interests and intelligence. She not only wanted to bring them knowledge, but also teach them to be grateful. Using sacred magic as a starting point was the conclusion she came to after pondering for a long time.
After Christ used the Holy Light Technique, the entire arena was shrouded in dazzling light. Xingluo was at the core of the light, and the whole person seemed to be melting. The Holy Light Technique that Christ understood was the ultimate light and the ultimate heat. Any enemy under the illumination of the Holy Light Technique would melt.
Xingluo left the center of the Holy Light, but the arena was full of light and he had no way to avoid it. He just left the place where magic was the strongest. The magic shield was held up and his magic power was rapidly consumed. After all, he was just a great magician. It was not so easy to withstand the attack of the Sky Knight, not to mention that he was an intermediate Sky Knight. His magic level was only at the peak of the great magician level, which he had just broken through not long ago. As for the mage, he could forget about it in the short term.
After Xingluo fell, he simply released a black hole next to himself, which directly swallowed up all the light around him. Christ was also stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would use this method to dissolve his Holy Light Technique. He thought that once the Holy Light came out, the other party would be defeated, and he could take back the Holy Light Technique when the other party admitted defeat.
Xingluo also thought of it at the last minute, and he didn't expect the effect to be so good. This was one of the only magic he could use. Compared with time magic and angel puppets, which were things that could not be seen in the light, his means of attack were really limited. It seemed that he had to hone his knight skills in the recent period of time. After all, he was about to go to the ruins with the other four people. He couldn't release time magic and angel puppets, otherwise this paladin would send himself to the Inquisition.
Xingluo still had time to think about these things, mainly because the other party had also fallen silent. The student audience in the audience also burst into exclamations at this time. They did not expect that someone would use offensive magic to protect themselves. It seemed that Xingluo had opened up a new idea for these magicians, and the audience was talking about it.
Christ took a deep breath, knowing that the battle could not be resolved in a short period of time, and began to prepare for a medium- to long-term battle.
"The power of blessing!"
Another holy light flashed, but this time it was softer and fell on Christ.
"Do you know what the power of blessing is?"
"I know, Teacher Tiffany, it's a blessing magic. The intelligence I received before mentioned this magic."
"Well, very good, then tell me what are the characteristics of this magic?"
"That teacher Tiffany, I don't remember."
The audience burst into laughter again, and Tiffany couldn't help laughing. These kids were so adorable.
"Ahem, if you don't remember it, just listen carefully and don't whisper to me."
"When releasing this magic, the caster is given a special sense of perception. They can sense the needs and wishes of all creatures around them and meet their needs through the power of blessing. They may increase others' physical strength and endurance, improve their wisdom and insight, and even bring good luck to others. Of course, the last one is too illusory, you don't need to remember it."
