Bei Bei's blue scales began to show signs of turning black, and its pupils turned a deep crimson.
Huo Yuhao watched as Bei Bei began to gather her strength, and he felt even more excited.
Subconsciously, he began to calculate where Bei Bei's attack would land, at what angle he should catch it, and how many seconds he should hold out before being sent flying by its overwhelming power.
Therefore, I landed on the maze wall behind me, and then fell to the ground half a second later, passing out instantly. Perfect, as long as I did that, I wouldn't attract anyone's attention.
The challenge lies in making the flight appear natural, controlling the timing of the fainting spell, and ideally adding a blood splatter effect to bring it as close to perfect as possible.
Bei Bei's hands transformed into dragon claws simultaneously, its dragon eyes fixed intently on Huo Yuhao's direction, its thigh muscles tense, ready to charge directly at Huo Yuhao.
"Wow! That's great, that's it. Okay, time to get ready."
Huo Yuhao felt a surge of excitement. He deliberately loosened his grip on the ' Hongchen ' sword to ensure that when he flew out, the short sword would be thrown to the ground naturally, increasing the credibility of his defeat.
The next second, just as Huo Yuhao had predicted, Bei Bei rushed directly towards Huo Yuhao at a speed of eighty miles per second.
Huo Yuhao's smile widened, and he immediately took a five-centimeter step forward with his right foot, waving his right hand, ' Hongchen, ' forward, ready to throw it away at any moment. He even brought his right cheek closer to the front.
The raging lightning, carrying intense heat, distorted and warped the surrounding air amidst the electric flashes.
Bei Bei's fist was getting closer and closer to Huo Yuhao's face. Just as they were about to make contact, a dark black vine shot out from the left like a lightning bolt and instantly Entanglement Bei Bei's waist.
The moment it wrapped around her, the vines suddenly straightened, and Bei Bei felt an irresistible pull on her waist. Her balance was instantly broken, and she was thrown out.
Tang Ya didn't hold back at all; her already powerful strength was amplified several times over by the swinging of the vines, and Bei Bei was slammed heavily against the wall.
The wall trembled uncontrollably under the attack, and the solid wall, which was tens of feet high, was covered with spider web-like cracks, with countless pieces of stone rolling down from it.
When the smoke cleared, Bei Bei was already deeply embedded in the wall, covered in blood and unconscious.
" Yuhao! Are you alright? You scared me to death!"
Tang Ya appeared here at some point and rushed towards Huo Yuhao, who was standing still. Jiang Nannan, who was beside her, also had a mix of worry and excitement in her eyes.
Huo Yuhao stood there awkwardly, instinctively steadying himself, completely frustrated.
Despite all his calculations, he overlooked one crucial point: the speed of the others was just enough to arrive a split second before Bei Bei's attack landed.
Huo Yuhao's plans were interrupted, and he felt utterly devastated!
Huo Yuhao quickly straightened his posture, coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment, and held the ' Hongchen ' in his right hand, looking a little lost. He hurriedly put it away.
"I'm fine, it's alright."
Tang Ya breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, she acted quickly enough. Otherwise, if Shadow Bei Bei had touched Lord Shadow's face, it wouldn't have been as simple as just throwing him out.
The teacher in charge of safety immediately entered the area and carefully examined Bei Bei's injuries. They were mostly superficial wounds, with no internal injuries, but he was no longer able to continue fighting.
The teacher showed no mercy, pulling it off the wall and bringing with it a large amount of rubble.
Their figures blurred again as Bei Bei and her teacher left the field simultaneously, and the sound of elimination immediately echoed through the maze.
" Bei Bei, eliminated."
The voice was mechanical and cold, which unconsciously amplified the sense of crisis in everyone's hearts.
Another opening appeared in the wall of the surrounding maze, and two slender but upright figures appeared at the entrance.
Xiao Xiao and Wu Feng helped each other in from one of the entrances. Their faces were covered in dust, and they had many wounds on their arms and legs, but they were not very serious.
Xiao Xiao immediately spotted Huo Yuhao. Ignoring the pain from her wound, Huo Yuhao excitedly waved to him and then ran towards him.
When Wu Feng saw Huo Yuhao, his cheeks flushed. As the maze slowly began to close, he shyly took steps to follow, but his wandering eyes never dared to look at Huo Yuhao again.
As soon as they got closer, Xiao Xiao began to vividly describe the scene of the battle that had just taken place, " Yuhao, you have no idea, Senior Brother Xu's tortoise shell is really powerful. If Wu Feng and I hadn't teamed up and caught him off guard, I might have been eliminated..."
Huo Yuhao nodded repeatedly, naturally tidying up Xiao Xiao's messy hair and dusty clothes, and finally carefully took out a handkerchief to wipe her face.
According to Xiao Xiao, the two encountered Xu Sanshi on the road, and it took them a lot of effort to defeat Xu Sanshi and get here.
Although Xu Sanshi's cultivation level was among the top in the elimination rounds, Xiao Xiao had undergone the baptism of Long Stairway to Godhood and had her physique secretly improved by Huo Yuhao for a year.
Furthermore, with Wu Feng having already broken through to the Soul Elder realm, defeating Xu Sanshi together would be quite easy for the two of them.
Xiao Xiao raised her head, pouting slightly angrily, " Yuhao, are you listening to me?"
Huo Yuhao said gently, "I'm listening. Be careful."
"Uh-huh!"
After helping Xiao Xiao tidy up, Huo Yuhao took out a brand new handkerchief from his storage ring and handed it to Wu Feng.
Wu Feng stared at the handkerchief in front of her in surprise, her cheeks flushing uncontrollably. She quickly turned her head away, not wanting anyone to see her embarrassing state.
But the hand holding the handkerchief remained upright.
After a long pause, Wu Feng timidly pointed to the handkerchief and asked, "Is it... for me?"
Huo Yuhao nodded, his tone warm, and placed the handkerchief in Wu Feng's hand, "Take this and wipe yourself clean, it doesn't look good when it's dirty."
"Um..."
Wu Feng shyly took the handkerchief, placed it in front of him, and subconsciously sniffed it. A light fragrance wafted over, which smelled very pleasant.
But she quickly froze, glanced around in a panic, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no one had seen what she had just done.
If someone had seen my unconscious action just now, they would definitely think I'm a pervert. Luckily, no one saw it.
Wu Feng then took a handkerchief and began to wipe his dirty and messy parts.
Just as Wu Feng was feeling relieved, she was unaware that Huo Yuhao had already seen through her actions, but he didn't say anything, only subconsciously taking a step to the side.
boom!
A violent explosion came from behind the maze wall, and the ground trembled continuously. Strong energy kept hitting the wall, and everyone immediately assumed a fighting stance.
The maze wall ahead slowly opened again...
