The entire platform was covered in bone-chilling solid ice, cold pouring off it in waves.
The air was filled with an icy chill.
And yet, that layer of ice was nothing more than decoration. It did not hinder anything in the slightest.
With every step the Three-eyed Underworld General took, it carried tremendous force. Vast sheets of ice under its feet shattered instantly, shards of ice flying everywhere!
Luo Song's face flushed crimson, veins bulging on his forehead. He drove every bit of Ice element magic energy in his body with all his might, even draining the magic in his nebula completely dry.
An Ice Lock shot toward the Three-eyed Underworld General like a bolt of lightning.
But the instant that Ice Lock neared the Underworld General, it turned to powder like fragile glass, scattering through the air.
How could he possibly be a match for a Warrior level demon?
Today was seriously fucking cursed. He was so damn unlucky!
Luo Song's heart was filled with despair. The intermediate Ice element magic he had always taken such pride in could not even make the Three-eyed Underworld General pause for a moment!
In the instant he froze in shock, the Three-eyed Underworld General had already arrived before him like a specter, its huge palm swinging out viciously.
Luo Song only felt a tremendous force hit him, and his whole body was sent flying like a kite with its string cut.
"I surrender! I surrender!!"
Luo Song screamed himself hoarse in midair. At this point, how could he still care about saving face?
Compared to being so brutally stomped, what did that so-called dignity even count for?
"The Undead element is practically cheating! How the hell are we supposed to fight this?"
"It's over, it's over! Our resources this year are definitely gone!!"
At the entrance to the arena, the teams that had originally been lined up waiting to go on stage immediately burst into wails.
Everyone understood one thing clearly.
Even if the five of them formed a team and went up together, against this Warrior level undead, they had no chance of winning at all.
Whoever went up would just be pure free points.
The Three-eyed Underworld General stood quietly at the high point of the platform, exuding an aura that made people's blood run cold.
Against the backdrop of the dark clouds, its figure looked even taller, more oppressive, like an invincible demon god.
Black clouds pressed down on the city, as if the city would collapse.
For a time, the entire venue fell into dead silence.
No one dared step onto that platform, as though it were a forbidden zone filled with the aura of death.
However, continuing to remain in this stalemate was not a solution either.
Dean Xiao wore a faint smile on his face, watching the scene with great interest, looking as if none of it had anything to do with him.
On the platform, Jiang Yuan suddenly sat down cross-legged and said calmly, "Hurry up and decide your order of appearance. End this tournament sooner so I can go back and rest."
The arrogance in those words made every freshman below grit their teeth, pairs of eyes staring fixedly at Jiang Yuan.
They wished they could immediately advance to high-tier Mages, then kick Jiang Yuan off the platform with one foot.
Unfortunately, that was nothing more than their fantasy before getting stomped.
"No, if he really wins against two hundred people, there won't be a single bit of this year's resources left."
"He still has to beat over a hundred more people. Why don't we use wave tactics to wear that undead down?"
At that moment, someone in the crowd offered an idea.
However, another person rolled his eyes at the one who had suggested it and said irritably, "You dumbass, are you mixing up undead with summoned beasts? How could a demon like an undead be worn to death? They're like perpetual motion machines. They don't know what fatigue is at all!"
"Doesn't the book say sunlight and Light element magic have a great suppressive effect on undead?" Suddenly, someone remembered the knowledge about the Undead element, and a gleam of hope flashed in his eyes.
"Sunlight?"
Everyone looked up one after another, only to see a huge mass of dark clouds containing an undead aura pressing heavily over the highest point of the Green Fighting Pavilion.
If there had not still been some faint scattered light, this place would already have been no different from night.
For now, they could only place their final hope on the Light element Mages.
Very soon, everyone quickly added students from the Light element school into their respective teams, full of expectation that they could use Light element magic to weaken the Three-eyed Underworld General's strength.
The tournament continued once more.
"Light Radiance—Blindness!"
As soon as the Light element Mage stepped onto the platform, he threw out a Light element magic like a flashbang without hesitation. Intense light instantly illuminated the entire platform.
The Three-eyed Underworld General moved slightly. The dazzling light made it feel extremely uncomfortable, and it instinctively raised a hand to block in front of itself.
Everyone was delighted.
"It works! Let's go!"
With a loud shout, the members of the team swarmed forward.
Jiang Yuan did not take this Light element magic seriously at all.
No Beginner level tier-three spell, no matter what it was, could possibly suppress the Three-eyed Underworld General's strength from Great Warrior level down to Lesser Warrior level.
This match was still a one-sided slaughter!
The Three-eyed Underworld General merely swung its arms a few times at random, and several figures flew out like meteors, crashing heavily to the ground.
In barely a dozen breaths, only Jiang Yuan remained on the platform, sitting there perfectly composed.
Next team.
"Light Radiance—Blindness!"
"Let's go!!"
Bang bang bang bang~~!
"Damn it, we lost again!"
Team after team strode onto the platform with fighting spirit blazing, yet in the end, without exception, they were mercilessly kicked off the stage by the Three-eyed Underworld General.
Everyone's expressions grew uglier and uglier. As they looked at the Three-eyed Underworld General standing unshaken beneath the dim light, their hearts filled with unwillingness and despair.
The gap in strength between the two sides was simply too huge!
As Jiang Yuan drew closer and closer to his goal of defeating two hundred people...
Finally, someone could no longer sit still.
The Intermediate level mages hidden among the freshmen were preparing to make their move.
Zhuang Lifeng, an Intermediate level Plant element mage, shot to his feet and shouted loudly, "No matter how strong his undead is, it's still just one person and one undead. Who's willing to team up with me and kick this arrogant freshman off the stage together?!"
That was right!
Everyone suddenly felt enlightened. No matter how powerful his undead was, there was still only one of it in the end.
And they were a team. They could coordinate with each other and work together!
The ones who had gone up before were basically all Beginner level mages. They had no way to break through the Three-eyed Underworld General's defense and attack Jiang Yuan himself directly.
But if someone could hold the Three-eyed Underworld General back, then an unarmed Undead Mage would be just like a summoning mage—wouldn't he be easy to deal with?
At that thought, fighting spirit reignited in many people's eyes.
"Heh, that's a little fanciful."
In the stands, a male student could not help laughing aloud.
"What is it, Xu Zhaoting?" a girl beside him with a high ponytail asked curiously.
The male student was none other than Jiang Yuan's classmate from Tianlan Magic High School, Xu Zhaoting.
Xu Zhaoting withdrew his gaze and said, "I know that Undead element freshman. He was my high school classmate."
"High school classmate? Then do you know how he raised his undead? It's so amazing!" The girl's eyes were full of curiosity.
Xu Zhaoting shook his head. "I don't know. Back when I knew him, the magic element he used wasn't the Undead element."
Watching Jiang Yuan's invincible figure on the platform, Xu Zhaoting's thoughts once again returned to that rainy night in Bocheng.
It was Jiang Yuan who had stepped forward on that perilous night and held back the ferocious Demon Wolves for them, allowing everyone to reach the Safe Zone safe and sound.
Otherwise, he truly did not dare imagine what kind of tragedy might have happened.
Now that they had met again, Jiang Yuan had become even stronger!
As expected of the man I, Xu Zhaoting, think is the coolest!!
