Did you win?
Everyone watching felt their emotions fluctuate greatly, especially Chen Baifeng, whose breathing became rapid.
In his view, they were now in a hopeless situation, struggling to survive. There was no resistance from the South Sea, and trouble had also broken out in Jiangnan and with His Majesty. They had no chance of breaking out on their own; it was almost a complete dead end.
The only hope is to disrupt the opponent's plans. If this trial can throw them off balance, there might be some unpredictable turning point.
He had thought White Plain was doomed when they reached the final step, but unexpectedly, the situation took a dramatic turn and the snake demon turned the tables!
This should have disrupted their plans, right?
Zhang Zhiyun lost, and now Murong Ziyi of the Black Tortoise Palace has also lost. Even if Azure Dragon Palace doesn't win in the end, it's still a 50/50 score.
The opponent's plan will certainly not go so smoothly. If Chen Ying can win the next match, it will definitely throw the opponent into disarray.
Chen Baifeng didn't really know how much impact the outcome of this competition would have on the other side, but in the current situation, any glimmer of hope was good.
"Your Highness, King of Qin," Chen Baifeng silently walked up behind Chen Qing, "This is the final match."
Chen Qing nodded slightly. Regardless of whether they won or lost, the final show was about to begin!
Do you think Chen Ying has a chance of winning?
"It's hard to say," Chen Qing shook her head.
Zhang Xiaoyun is quite strange. In other competitions, people use the environment to their advantage, but he is different. The Azure Dragon Palace is clearly a buff for the enemy. Given Chen Ying's status, once she is shortlisted, she will definitely head towards the Azure Dragon Hall. The fact that the other side knows this, yet still sent Zhang Xiaoyun to guard that place, means that Zhang Xiaoyun is probably the strongest among the candidates!
Ziyue is not replying to any messages now. He doesn't know if she's being completely monitored or for some other reason. With so little time left, Chen Qing himself is unsure of her plans. In this final moment, he doesn't expect Chen Ying to win; he just hopes she can escape unscathed.
In this situation, before he could even begin his own plans, he truly couldn't help Chen Ying!
Inside the Azure Dragon Hall, Chen Ying landed in the center of the hall quickly, accompanied by a beam of white light. She was quite cautious, activating multiple defensive barriers on her body before even entering, in case the other party was unethical and attacked her upon landing.
However, it seems I was overthinking it this time. The other party maintained a sufficient distance from the beginning, looking at me with a very mocking expression.
Chen Ying frowned, sensing the energy around her.
It is indeed the Azure Dragon Array!!
This feeling was very similar to that in Great Azure Mountain, and even stronger than the Azure Dragon Spell energy in Great Azure Mountain. Moreover, she could clearly sense that there were several energy arrays around her that could be activated by the Azure Dragon Spell, but she did not move for the time being, fearing that it might be a trap.
"There are three magic formations in this Azure Dragon Palace, corresponding to the Azure Dragon's Azure Wood Growth, Kan Wood Lightning, and Heavenly Bathing Rain respectively. You've been learning them for five years, so they should be familiar to you, right?"
Zhang Xiaoyun on the other side still wore that mocking expression, seemingly not worried at all that the other party would use the three magic arrays.
Upon hearing this, Chen Ying frowned even more deeply.
The other party even gave me a detailed explanation, as if they were afraid I wouldn't be able to use it properly?
"Azure Wood Growth " is the most basic technique of the Azure Dragon. It involves planting a spiritual seed with the Azure Dragon Wood attribute of the Azure Dragon, which then continuously provides the user with spiritual energy. Moreover, it is a unique Azure Dragon Azure Wood Spirit. This spiritual energy is almost burdensome to use, unlike other techniques where excessive use can harm the user. As long as the caster is willing, Azure Wood Spirit will not damage the body no matter how it is used. It is also known as the most enduring combat technique in the world.
Many people who have come into contact with the Azure Dragon Sorcerer know that once the Azure Dragon Sorcerer's Azure Wood Domain is formed, it will never weaken. Therefore, cities guarded by the Azure Dragon Sorcerer are rarely breached. According to records, the previous generation of Azure Dragon Sorcerer once single-handedly held off 100,000 ghost soldiers. The continuous Azure Wood Magic prevented the 100,000 ghost soldiers from entering the city. This is why the Azure Dragon Sorcerer has the highest status. There are more legends about him guarding cities than the other three saints combined.
Kan Wood Lightning is the most offensive spell in the Azure Dragon Spell. The Azure Wood is the spirit, which can create spiritual clouds and form Heavenly Bathing Rain, allowing the Azure Wood Spirit to grow continuously. The growing Azure Wood Spirit generates more spiritual energy, which in turn produces more Heavenly Bathing Rain, and the spiritual clouds formed can be used to unleash the most powerful thunder spells!
Once these three formations are complete, the Azure Dragon Sorcerer alone can defeat an entire army!
Chen Ying remained silent for a few moments, and then almost without hesitation, she scattered her spiritual energy and quickly linked the three formations!
"Wow, that's quite decisive!" Zhang Xiaoyun immediately smiled, "I thought you'd have to try it cautiously."
"Facing you, senior, I'm afraid I don't have the time," Chen Ying said directly. "If I hesitated, you would have acted immediately, wouldn't you?"
"You're quite clever." Zhang Xiaoyun said with a half-smile. He really thought so. If the other party was timid and hesitant, he would naturally be a boring person, and he wouldn't bother waiting. But the other party's decisiveness made him somewhat interested.
"I'll give you fifteen minutes. If you can set up the Nine Spirits..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhang Xiaoyun's voice suddenly stopped abruptly.
A stream of azure energy shot into the sky, and a shower of light rained down. Instantly, countless spiritual trees sprouted from the ground, growing into towering trees over ten meters tall in just a few breaths!
The speed and the skill in using spiritual power were so great that it was completely unlike the first time he had used the magic array here!
Zhang Xiaoyun's smile paused slightly.
Chen Ying's intelligence had already been investigated. When she was at the Jiangnan Academy, she was the head of the four academies. She was involved in everything, from the Heaven Academy, which focused on formations, to the Xuan and Huang Academies, which focused on people's livelihood. Many projects bore her name and were her work.
This suggests that the lineages she explored during those five years were too diverse.
I originally thought that since she was so skilled in spatial arrays, my Azure Dragon Sorcerer would definitely be a little lax.
Indeed, although the Azure Dragon Spell is the foremost of the Four Saints Spell, it is far inferior in terms of expressiveness compared to the Dragon Palace's array inheritance. The Azure Dragon Spell Formation usually requires many years of secluded cultivation to achieve results, while the array technique only requires two or three years to enable a novice sorcerer to directly confront First Rank sorcerer.
The differences in time inevitably lead to a shift in focus.
But now it seems I was wrong; Chen Ying's aptitude is far greater than I imagined.
Not only is he able to use the Dragon Palace Inheritance so skillfully, but he has also mastered the Azure Dragon Spell perfectly. His skill level is probably no less than that of Murong Ziyi and the others, and may even be stronger!
Five years
Murong Ziyi inherited the Black Tortoise Spell at the age of eight, and with her exceptional talent, it took her twelve years to achieve some success. Chen Ying, on the other hand, only took five years!
"Truly excellent talent!"
Chen Ying smiled slightly, "You flatter me, senior."
"No flattery!" Zhang Xiaoyun became unusually serious. "Even in the era of the Warlock Dynasty, when geniuses gathered, your talent was top-notch. It's truly a pity that you died here."
Chen Ying's smile remained unchanged upon hearing this, but she became wary inwardly.
Chen Qing's words echoed in my mind.
This match for you is probably the most dangerous one yet.
"The other side definitely wants to seize the Four Saints Spell, which is why the first two Four Saints Sorcerer were saved. They were their own people, and in the end, they need the survivors to guarantee what they will do. But you are not one of them. Most likely, they want to force you to use the Azure Dragon Spell and then seize it by some means."
"You must be careful; your opponent is determined to obtain the spells you're wearing!"
