Chen Lang could also handle this level of destructive power.
Yet this time, he chose not to absorb this destruction; instead, a silver light bloomed across his entire body.
"Space Rhythm - Time Lag!"
"Hum~!!!"
The aggressive five-fold destruction, at the very moment it was about to detonate on Chen Lang, was abruptly enveloped by a flash of silver light.
Under this silver light's shroud, the impact speed of that destruction seemed to have been pressed against a pause button, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Lang, covered by the Cloud-Treading Boots on his feet, leaped up.
"Whoosh!"
"Bang!!!!"
"Boom boom boom!!!!"
It was precisely the instant he dodged that the powerful destructive force simultaneously impacted the sand surface, and in a flash, sand waves surged nearly a hundred meters high!
After the yellow sand drifting across the sky settled, the location where Chen Lang had previously stood had already become a massive deep crater!
Yet Chen Lang himself had long since dodged to a spot dozens of meters away.
To be honest, regarding Chen Lang, many people's perception was limited to his Lightning Element.
Ever since he took the stage, he had advanced with the overwhelming destruction of the Lightning Element. However, that spatial restriction maneuver just now was undoubtedly shocking!
If he did not possess sufficient confidence in the Space Element, delaying five High-level destructions would simply have been impossible.
This also proved that aside from his destructive Lightning Element, Chen Lang was furthermore an exceptional Space Element mage!
"Captain... This..."
This scene left them stunned for quite a while, until hearing Bao Liya, who was the first to regain her senses, make a sound, Captain Ande Hai also snapped back to reality, only to see lightning permeated around Chen Lang's location while his remaining few teammates were simultaneously approaching from all directions...
At this moment, Ande Hai understood that even if they fought to the very end, there would no longer be any hope to speak of.
Knowing that the enemy was invincible yet stubbornly expending their strength to fight anyway was an unwise course of action. Because even if they lost this match, there were still several matches ahead.
He felt somewhat powerless, glanced at the few people beside him, and said, "There is no longer any point in continuing; we might as well conserve our strength and wait for the next match..."
Although they felt unwilling to resign themselves to it, failing to eliminate Chen Lang right away meant that in a head-on clash like this, the few of them would undoubtedly still lose.
When they took the stage, their intention was precisely to rely on Bao Liya's plants and their respective magic tools to resist Chen Lang's Lightning Element.
His attacks were too fast, and battling him left them with no other choice.
While defending, they ignored everyone else and joined forces to deal with Chen Lang first.
Yet the plan was wonderful, while reality was ruthlessly cruel!
Without being able to blast him off the stage immediately, or even being able to land an attack, what else did they have left to continue with?
Regarding this, none of the few had any objections.
At the exact same time the Great Xia members were about to launch their attack, Ande Hai looked at the referee in the distance and shouted, "We concede!"
The instant these words were shouted, the audience on-site felt somewhat incredible!
Even many people felt like cursing!
How could the so-called fighting nation possibly surrender?
They had come to watch magnificent clashes and observe hot-tempered young youths fighting fiercely!
As a result, you guys just threw out a single skill, had it dodged, and then directly surrendered—what was that supposed to mean?
In truth, those with a bit of cultivation were able to understand the significance behind their actions.
They had originally adopted the approach of trading injuries for injuries to fight it out, but as a result, they could not harm Chen Lang in the slightest. If things continued this way, they would ultimately still lose, and the subsequent matches would likely all be powerless.
Surrendering at this moment was, by contrast, the much wiser choice.
No matter how turbulent the crowd was, and regardless of whether the audience accepted it or not, the moment captain Ande Hai announced their surrender, this match had already ended!
Great Xia won yet another match, advancing directly into the double-winners bracket!
As they left the stage, Zu Xiangtian looked at him in disbelief and questioned, "Chen Lang, since when did your Space Element also become this strong!?"
With Chen Lang's maneuvers just now, let alone the Russian team being dumbfounded, even he was somewhat stupefied!
Although Zu Xiangtian's character might not be all that great, he was extremely obsessed with the pursuit of power. Although he had previously witnessed the extraordinariness of Chen Lang's Lightning Element, in his view, once he reached the Super-level, he would still have a chance to surpass him.
Yet outside of the Lightning Element, he never expected that his Space Element would likewise possess such formidable strength.
For a moment, Zu Xiangtian suddenly realized that he seemed to know nothing at all about this monstrous teammate...
Chen Lang retorted with a question, "Did someone ever tell you that my Space Element was weak?"
"This..."
Zu Xiangtian lapsed into silence.
Chen Lang had merely stated that his Space Element cultivation was low; from beginning to end, he had never once said that his Space Element was weak!
Jiang Shaojun said speechlessly, "You kid, why didn't you say so earlier? Their sudden joint attack just now scared the life out of me!!"
"Who knew these lunatics would disregard everything else and just want to mess with me." Chen Lang shrugged rather helplessly.
"..."
While the few of them were discussing matters from the arena, Mu Tian exclaimed with a sense of disbelief, "I really didn't expect that we could actually make it this far, coming this close to the championship stage."
The championship!
Hearing this, the others also perked up.
That was right, as long as they won one more match, they would be able to advance to the finals.
The final match would be defending the top two while striving for first place!
Having reached this stage, even though Chen Lang had stolen all the spotlight by himself, and even though their individual performances were not outstanding enough, this was still an achievement on their life resumes that no one could deny!
Most importantly, the families behind them would all be able to reap unimaginably massive rewards after this tournament!
The families reaping immense rewards naturally also meant that they, serving as the 'contributors', would see their status within their respective families skyrocket!
For a moment, several pairs of eyes gazed at Chen Lang, their faces filled with gratitude.
Even Mu Zhen, who served as a substitute, no longer held any complaints. Although he was no longer a formal member, he was still a part of the National Academy Team.
If Great Xia could secure first place, his benefits would likewise not be small!
Everyone was well aware that had it not been for the arrival of this powerful reinforcement Chen Lang, let alone the final circle, they would likely not even have had the opportunity to enter the Treasure Hunt Competition.
Therefore, their gratitude toward Chen Lang was naturally all from the bottom of their hearts...
Chen Lang could not be bothered to listen to all of this.
To him, this was simply an opportunity for growth.
If not for fighting battles one after another after stepping into Venice, his transformation would not have happened so quickly.
As expected, human potential could only break through infinitely during critical moments. Himself before participating in the World Academy and himself now—there was undoubtedly a multiple-fold gap.
Yet the time span during this period was at most even a month. One could say that compared to everyone else, Chen Lang's gains were the greatest...
Their opponents in the third match were Team USA.
Following the knockout rounds, this could be considered the second clash between Great Xia and Team USA.
Having walked all the way by hacking through thorns and thistles without ever suffering a defeat, Team USA's sole blemish was the loss to Great Xia in the knockout stage.
Although this match was not the battle for the championship and runner-up, the moment the two countries collided, the attention commanded by this match reached an unprecedented height...
