Although it was a bit strange, this was the kind of duel she longed for.
"Adhesion and locking are the properties of my magic. The oppressive will above is merely an effect derived from my desire for duel."
"Let me see your counterattack, Solita." Wei Yu smiled and actually opened his arms wide, as if it were a provocation, or perhaps a sincere invitation.
“Madman,” Solita whispered, but then she laughed. “But I’m even crazier.”
Driven by gluttony, the surrounding deathly aura and resentment surged toward her, regardless of whether she could bear it.
As Solita felt death approaching, his smile grew even more genuine as he fell backward.
The dragon opened its mouth and leaped up to swallow Solita whole!
Suddenly, the world changed.
The dragon grew a second horn, which meant that it had temporarily broken through the limitations of magic and gained strength close to that of a level 4 dragon, even if only for a moment.
As if embracing its rebirth, the eyeless raven transformed into its new scales, and the rain of black blood adorned its new colors, while its single eye remained brutal!
But the deathly aura and resentment vanished.
The gloomy mist in the dueling arena also disappeared, and for the first time, sunlight shone on its remains.
Evolution is so romantic and illogical.
Facing the dragon's fury, Wei Yu involuntarily took a half step back, his excitement growing even stronger!
"This is the duel I've always longed for! This ruthless determination—willing to sacrifice myself rather than let my enemy escape unscathed—how wonderful!!!"
Her response was the devastating sound of the "water droplet" piercing through everything, and the gaping maw of the demonic dragon.
Chapter 270 Growth
"Wei Yu wins! Congratulations to Wish Society for gaining 3 points. Both sides have accumulated 7 points, and the game goes into overtime!"
Gu Qingci glanced at the preparation area of the Wish Society and asked, "Do you want to choose team battle mode or arena mode?"
To prevent top-tier combat power from excessively affecting the balance of the competition, the overtime format will be selected by the losing side in the opening match.
"The arena." It was Su Ying who spoke, struggling to sit up, her smile gradually turning violent.
This choice did not surprise anyone present, since the arena mode is the Wish Society's real specialty.
As Gu Qingci nodded slightly.
Upon being resurrected, Solita couldn't help but look back. Wei Yu, on the other side, also turned around in unison, raising his head slightly as if affirming her resolve.
"Hmph, next time all that awaits you is my killing you." Solita slit Wei Yu's throat, only to make the other man's smile grow even wider.
But is this the value of a duel...? She looked at her delicate hands; the resentment accumulated in the dragon's stomach was enough to digest everything, and the pain it brought was nothing short of torture.
But Solita felt that his strength had increased considerably.
Her dying plea to kill Wei Yu seemed to connect with her true self, prompting her to undergo a transformation in a short period of time.
It wasn't much, but it was definitely progress.
Most importantly, Solita had to admit that she was starting to enjoy the feeling of this kind of fighting.
"Congratulations." Jiang Kehan stood in front of Solita, but her expression was not smiling.
She looked solemnly at Solita and said, "How does it feel to face your first death since becoming a witch?"
“Very good.” Solita smiled and looked up, gazing intently at Jiang Kehan.
"I'm starting to understand what a witch is."
The most important thing about witches is not their power, but their unbridled will.
Solita smacked her lips, and her feigned composure gradually crumbled.
The inner turmoil subsided and transformed into an unwavering resolve.
Solita suddenly understood why there were so many breakups in the witch's relationships, with seemingly no room for reconciliation.
Because they compromise only for their own conscience, not for their current selves, except for their lovers.
Let alone just friends?
Still a minor and unfamiliar with the place, Solita felt that her previous playing style was too restrained.
Don't worry about so much, just hug me if you want!
You're telling me you're clinging to someone's coattails, aren't you?
Solita looked calmly at Jiang Kehan, her smile growing deeper and deeper; she had already grasped the true meaning.
A witch's love doesn't require excessive concern for the other person, which could lead to feelings of insecurity and anxiety.
Because a witch's love is never one-sided.
Friendship is simpler; just be yourself and the right person will never mind your authenticity.
After all, this is what a witch is like—a witch who acts recklessly and wantonly.
Jiang Kehan suddenly felt a chill down her spine. She looked at Solita suspiciously. She had to admit that she and Solita had a certain level of understanding.
"Just so you know, I can hit people."
Solita nodded obediently, but her smile looked anything but malicious.
Jiang Kehan helplessly covered her face, regretting that she had met the wrong person. Oh no, she rescued Solita herself, so it's alright now.
"What are you two whispering about here?" Ariel walked over with a frown and gently patted Jiang Kehan's shoulder.
"The results are about to be announced, and you're still chatting? We haven't even planned our tactics yet!"
Then, Ariel looked at Solita and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work. To be honest, your performance exceeded my expectations."
"I can become even stronger," Solitaire replied casually.
Aili'er couldn't help but scratch her hair, glancing at Jiang Kehan with a puzzled look, as if asking: Was this girl always like this? No way!
Jiang Kehan proudly raised her head and spoke.
“My judgment has never been wrong!” she said gently, scanning the approaching crowd.
"And although Solita lost, we have achieved our goal, haven't we? Everyone has grown significantly."
Leaving aside An Meng, who frequently participates in simulated duels and is obsessed with self-harm and cult-like practices, she is naturally well-suited to the dueling environment.
Nuoxi, who was initially hesitant, proved that she was strong enough to protect her resolve, becoming resolute and steadfast, a shield worthy of everyone's trust.
Jiang Kehan, who was participating in a formal duel for the first time, also became familiar with the routines and became very comfortable with it.
Ariel further proved her tactical planning skills and her own talent.
Solita also found her reason for participating in the duel, and even realized what was buried beneath the witch's blood, and began to flourish.
As for Li Hui and Qingxue?
Well, Li Hui doesn't need to worry, and surely no one really wants Qingxue to fill in the numbers?
Jiang Kehan also secretly glanced at Wu Yuhan, who was rubbing the strange glasses, and her smile became even more sincere.
These are the reasons she participated in the duel!
"I believe that no one can stop us now."
"Let's briefly discuss the overtime arrangements then," Jiang Kehan said, extending her hand and gesturing for everyone to join her.
The others exchanged glances, finding it somewhat amusing, but they all followed Jiang Kehan's example and placed their right hands on top, even Wu Yuhan did so.
"Go for it!" they shouted in unison, pressing their right hands down forcefully.
Immediately, silvery laughter spread, recording the innocence in the hearts of these girls.
Wu Yuhan smiled helplessly, but didn't make a sound. Looking at the scene before her, a hole in her heart that she had blocked herself from opening once again revealed the light behind it.
Now it's her turn to experience her own growth, a growth that's been many years overdue.
Wu Yuhan suddenly felt a little glad that he had chosen to participate in this competition.
However, she didn't realize that this time her smile was unusually vivid, unlike her previous mechanical one.
"Leave it to me," Li Hui said with a smile, looking at everyone's faces.
"Since I said I would bring the game to overtime, let me keep my promise and bring victory to everyone."
"Let me go straight into the first match."
Jiang Kehan pondered for a moment, but did not agree immediately. Instead, she looked at Li Hui seriously.
"I think I'll still fight for you. After all, looking at our strength alone, even with the influence of the poison, I'm not afraid of anyone except Yun Yuexi and Su Ying."
Even if you can't win, in arena mode, it can still weaken your opponent's strength considerably.
An Meng also laughed and said, "And me too. In the best-of-five format, Li Hui can go last."
She glanced at Qingxue beside her and asked with a smile, "How's the medicine I asked Xiaoxue to prepare?"
The cult possesses the most skilled magic faction that utilizes external forces, and drug use is second nature to them.
"I'm ready!" Qingxue nodded vigorously. "I'm working hard too!"
Everyone burst into laughter again.
However, Li Hui shook his head slightly, put his hands in his pockets, looked at Gu Qingci above the dueling arena, and said to the others.
"I'm coming." She turned to look at the others, exuding a certain nonchalance and indescribable coolness.
"After all, I also need to prove that I have the strength to make you trust me and see me as a last resort, don't I?"
Chapter 271 A Dignified One-Man Kill Against Three (Part 1)
As if in response to Li Hui's words, Gu Qingci glanced at the time in the dueling arena and spoke with a smile.
"The break time is over. Are both sides ready?"
“Then we choose to believe you!” Jiang Kehan glanced at the others, and seeing that they all nodded, she looked at Li Hui with a bright smile and said.
"Don't let us down!"
“Of course.” Li Hui ruffled Jiang Kehan’s hair, then turned and walked toward the dueling arena.
The arena mode is simple and straightforward.
In a duel arena unaffected by environmental factors, the team that first achieves 3 wins wins.
