Ye Lingtong, who was supposed to be with Lu Qianxun and Chang Jianyi, was alone. She seemed like she was in a difficult position; there were many tears in her clothes and even bloodstain at the corner of her mouth.
“Swish swish swish!” Three figures were sprinting from afar and chasing after Ye Lingtong. These three people were very fast, and they were all wearing the same clothes—they were clearly a team.
The one leading was a tall and skinny youth. He was in the middle as he chased, and there was a faint yellow glow on his body. He was extremely fast, riding atop a tiger. The tiger was somewhat illusory and should be a Spirit Soul.
As for the other two people, one of them had a pair of wings on his back and flew very swiftly. He was the closest to Ye Lingtong. The other person was akin to a spirit; he would disappear and reappear again with a spear in his hand.
The three people clearly didn’t have the intention of letting Ye Lingtong off. There were two big words written across the front of their shirts—Ling Tian!
‘They’re from Ling Tian Academy?’
Seeing these two words, Lan Xuanyu’s team felt chills in their hearts.
There were two continents in Heaven Luo Planet, namely Heaven Luo Continent and Ling Tian Continent. Heaven Luo Continent was slightly bigger, so it took the name ‘Planet’.
Just like Heaven Luo Academy was the best school in Heaven Luo Continent, the same went for Ling Tian Academy in Ling Tian Continent. In addition, Ling Tian Academy was actually the top school in Heaven Luo Planet for the past 100 years.
Why did Heaven Luo Academy start the Elite Junior Class? In actual fact, they learned it from Ling Tian Academy! Ling Tian Academy had been able to enroll their students in Shrek Academy for three consecutive years already. As Ling Tian Academy moved in the right direction, they also became more and more powerful, and surpassed Heaven Luo Academy in every aspect.
The Elite Junior Class was established to compete with Ling Tian Academy.
In the Shrek Academy’s qualifications this time, Lan Xuanyu’s team was in first place while the second to sixth places were all from Ling Tian Academy. In other words, at least five teams were above Lu Qianxun’s team. It went without saying how strong Ling Tian Academy was.
This was also why Heaven Luo Academy was so excited after seeing that Lan Xuanyu’s team got first place and invested more resources to support them. They also planned to start another Elite Junior Class.
Currently, the three people chasing after Ye Lingtong were one of the teams from Ling Tian Academy. Among those three people, two of them were third ring Soul Elders while the last was a one ringed Soul Grandmaster.
“Should we help?” Qian Lei asked Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu narrowed his eyes. “These are points delivered to our hands, so why not?”
At that moment, Ye Lingtong saw that they were about to catch up, but as if she had eyes on her back, she dove forward and avoided an attack from above. As her body flipped forward, she placed her hands on the ground and her legs became upright, kicking the person who was falling from the sky. This rabbit-kicking-eagle [1] move was executed perfectly and was clearly long premeditated.
Ye Lingtong knew that if she wanted to escape, she must deal with the chap that could fly. The other party was too fast and wasn’t limited by the terrain on the ground. If she didn’t injure him, she would be caught and unable to escape.
Hence, she had been waiting for the chance to use this attack and had been storing energy. Her sudden move had raised her Celestial Body to its limit and released her second Soul Skill, the Celestial Shockwave. With her legs up, a white light that was two feet in diameter burst forth instantly.
The flying-type Soul Master clearly didn’t expect that his opponent, who was like a lost dog, to suddenly execute such a powerful attack. However, his reaction was also very swift. The wings on his back closed up and covered his front while the faint blue glow around his body burst forth and turned into ripples to protect him.
“Bang!” His body was sent flying and his left wing was broken, which caused his body to lose its balance as he knocked against a huge tree trunk.
Although Ye Lingtong didn’t manage to kill her opponent, she was glad that she broke a wing and he wouldn’t be able to chase after her so easily anymore.
But at this moment, a stifling feeling came over her and she threw a punch almost without hesitation.
“Dang.” An illusory shadow appeared. Ye Lingtong slid backwards and gray halos appeared around her body. These gray halos bore into her body, and even her Celestial Body felt shaky and unsteady.
In a flash, the illusory figure moved in the air and caught the illusory spear. He descended from the sky and chased after Ye Lingtong again.
Ye Lingtong quickly switched from a back flip to a squat, gritted her teeth, threw her fists in the air and released the Celestial Body white light at the same time. She didn’t care about over-consuming anymore.
“Dang!” Another loud noise. Ye Lingtong took four steps back and left a deep imprint on the ground with every step she took. However, just then, there was a slight chill from her back. She tried her best to dodge, but suffering from two consecutive blows had already caused her to be exhausted; she couldn’t dodge anymore.
At that very moment, what appeared behind her was actually a figure that was exactly the same as the figure in front.
‘I’m doomed!’ Ye Lingtong was sorrow-stricken. Even though she didn’t want to accept this fact, she knew that this was the end of the qualifier for her. With nearly three days left to go, leaving the competition was tantamount to being eliminated.
Then, all of a sudden, she felt something tighten around her waist and she was pulled away. She dodged the spearhead that was behind her by a very close shave.
“Whoa!” That person exclaimed softly but didn’t continue attacking.
Then, a deep roar resounded, and right after that, rays of light burst forth and covered over ten square meters.
The twin figures quickly combined into one, and the body suddenly became more illusory. It flickered in the light but was still affected by it, staggering backwards.
A figure that was about 1.5 meters tall but had a body that was bright purple like a huge lizard appeared from the thicket and stared at him with icy purple eyes.
Purple Lightning Dragon! Ground dragon type. Good at manipulating thunder and lightning but not good at close combat. There weren’t many ground dragons that weren’t good at close combat, but its blood was very pure and it was close to a real dragon. Yes, this was the product of a summoning by Qian Lei, and it was quite a lucky summon.
“Roar!” A deep roar echoed. The person riding the tiger had already rushed over, but he didn’t charge in its direction. Instead, he rushed toward his teammate with the broken wing.
A glaring white light shot out of his mouth and went straight to his teammate. Then, a silver light ray appeared too.
A loud “boom” resounded, and both the silver light ray and white light disappeared at the same time, and a rapid-moving figure also disappeared into the woods. If not for the youth riding the tiger helping out just in time, his teammate would have fallen.
Ye Lingtong then saw who had pulled her—Lan Xuanyu. “It’s you!”
She wasn’t sure why, but when she saw Lan Xuanyu, she suddenly had the urge to cry like she was finally free from anxiety and bumped into a family member.
Lan Xuanyu pulled her to his side and knitted his brows.
The opponent was harder to deal with than he imagined. He had thought that Liu Feng’s sudden attack and the Purple Lightning Dragon’s distraction would be enough to deal with the flying-type Soul Master. However, he didn’t expect that the Soul Master riding the tiger would be so alert and dispel Liu Feng’s attack.
Currently, that flying-type Soul Master had already retracted the wings on his back and his face was pale, but at least he survived this time. He jumped on the back of the Shining Tiger and gathered in one place with the Soul Master that had an illusory figure.
