Unfavorable Start

This match's arena is a dense mountain forest battlefield.

I don't know if the organizers did it on purpose, but they chose such a plant-filled arena!

After both sides entered, unlike before, neither side could see the other.

It was as if they were being targeted!

"This arena gives us no advantage." Jiang Shaojun observed his surroundings, his brow furrowed slightly.

"The organizers are targeting Chen Lang, wanting to give the opposing team an opportunity to attack."

Dongfang Qing said this while looking around at the dense trees that obscured everything. She then looked back at Jiang Shaojun, "What do we do now?"

"It's best if we stick together. That way, we won't be picked off one by one," Zhao Yi suggested.

"I agree with Zhao Yi's opinion," Hua Xuan said.

"Hua Xuan, you scout ahead. The rest of us will follow behind."

"Okay."

Although the arena in Venice was large, the straight-line distance for a high-level mage was only a few minutes' walk.

But to their surprise, after circling around, they hadn't encountered a single member of the opposing team.

"Captain, this is strange. I've scouted the entire way and haven't detected any sign of the opposing team," Hua Xuan said with a slight frown.

"Could they be looking for us too?" Zhao Yi guessed.

"Something's not right, very not right..."

Chen Lang was using his senses to perceive the surroundings. Although he couldn't detect any fluctuations, the very absence of them made him feel that something was wrong.

"Did you sense anything?" Jiang Shaojun looked at Chen Lang, whose expression clearly indicated he was concentrating on his senses.

Chen Lang's Space cultivation had improved significantly recently. With his full attention focused on sensing, he quickly detected that something was amiss!

It was a fluctuation from the plant element!

The moment he detected it, Chen Lang shouted, "Watch out! Be careful of the surrounding plants!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

At the exact same moment, vines from the jungle shot towards them at high speed!

"Light Blessing - Mural!"

Zhao Yi, a Light Element mage, immediately condensed light into a series of light walls upon seeing this.

"Bang bang bang!!!"

"Bang bang bang!!!"

"Swish..."

Zhao Yi reacted quickly, but the impact of these plants was exceptionally strong!

"Rumble!!!"

With a sweep of thunder, all the plants were instantly turned into charred debris.

But these plants seemed to be endless, surging towards them in a torrent!!

"Sizzle sizzle..."

And at this moment, Chen Lang's Domain was fully activated. Where the lightning swept, no matter how dense the plants were, they couldn't get within an inch of Chen Lang.

Seeing that Chen Lang had stabilized the situation, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chen Lang, can you sense where they are?" Jiang Shaojun asked urgently.

"I wasn't sure just now, but..."

Chen Lang said, looking towards the north, "They don't plan on hiding forever."

"Roar!!!"

At the same time, a giant fire python descended from the sky towards them.

"Water Curtain Sky!"

Hua Xuan immediately completed a high-level Water Element magic.

"Boom!!!"

"Boom boom boom!!!"

High-level Water Element magic undoubtedly possessed extremely strong defense.

But the resistance they expected didn't happen. The fireball directly shattered the shield condensed by water, and waves of fire surged down towards the group below!

"Light Blessing!"

"Rock Barrier!"

Everyone saw this scene and hurriedly attacked to resist.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

"Rumble rumble!!!"

But even with the combined defenses of several people, they still couldn't withstand this wave of impact.

Fortunately, Chen Lang absorbed all the fire waves with his Conversion Ring at the last moment.

"Thousand Pound Thunderclap!"

After his Lightning Element reached High-level Rank 2, Chen Lang's control became even stronger, and he had even mastered skill derivation.

Black thunderclouds quickly covered the northern jungle not far away.

"Sizzle sizzle!!!"

"Rumble rumble!!!"

Under the bombardment of dense thunderclaps, the surrounding ancient trees turned into black debris.

In the area bombarded by the lightning zone, two figures flew up, relying on Wing Magic Tools and Wind Wings.

The one with Wing Magic Tools on his back was still burning with green flames, while the one with Wind Wings was clearly the plant Mage who had just attacked.

With these two forced out by Chen Lang, the surrounding plant attacks also paused.

"Hiding and sneaking, like rats." Looking at the two figures flying into the sky, Chen Lang said dismissively.

The people from Team USA were naturally proud, and hearing Chen Lang's words, he felt a bit displeased.

But he knew Chen Lang's strength better, so he immediately retorted, "On the battlefield, winning is all that matters. This is also a tactic."

"Your tactic isn't very good," Chen Lang sneered, not taking it seriously.

"Doesn't your country have a saying, it's not over until the last laugh!" As the plant Mage finished speaking, the constellation in front of him flashed and disappeared.

"Rumble rumble ~~~!!!!"

At this moment, the ground began to fluctuate violently!

It shook so much that it was hard to stand still!

"Boom!"

"Swish swish swish!!!"

Soon, the ground cracked, and thick plants grew wildly from below. As the plants grew, the original trees also began to change...

Seeing this, Zhao Yi immediately cursed, "Damn it, they've set a trap here long ago!"

"I'll do it!"

Dongfang Qing looked at the wildly growing plants and directly used Heavenly Flame Funeral for area-wide bombardment.

But even under the impact of the rain of fire, these plants showed no signs of shrinking!

Even more, the plants began to emit bursts of mist!

At this moment, no matter who it was, they had to admit that the people from Team USA were indeed all magic prodigies!

"Buzz!!!"

Chen Lang repelled them with Space power, but he soon discovered that even with his Rank 2 mental realm, he couldn't break through.

Although the thunder bombardment was fierce, the plants here seemed to grow infinitely, making it impossible to clear a path.

For a moment, he was also helpless.

Jiang Shaojun saw the current predicament and immediately looked at Chen Lang and said, "Chen Lang, we'll protect you with all our might. You choose a direction and charge out, then wait for Zu Xiangtian and the others to join up with them!"

Chen Lang looked at Jiang Shaojun with some surprise.

Jiang Shaojun continued, "If you stay here, you'll be worn down in the end. We're already at a disadvantage. Keeping you gives us some hope, you absolutely cannot be eliminated!"

"That's right, if you're not out, we still have hope," Hua Xuan also strongly agreed with Jiang Shaojun's point of view at this moment.

"Take our hope and blast these bastards!" Zhao Yi was also very angry.

They were already nearing the finals, and instead of losing in a head-on confrontation, they were defeated like this, naturally making him very indignant.

Dongfang Qing didn't say anything, but she also used her Magic Weapons and Magic Tools at this moment.

She directly used her actions to tell Chen Lang that she would protect him!
