Chapter 560 - The Immortal Has a Successor
“This…” Xiao Yulv didn’t know how to continue since five of the six supreme masters who Mr. Mu had picked had been defeated by this point.
If they were defeated while fighting for the championship, it would be acceptable. However, they didn’t even make it out of the group stage!
Xiao Yulv glanced at Mr. Mu who was sitting beside him and saw that the latter wasn’t feeling well.
Now, Nalan Mingxue was the only one left in the six supreme masters.
“Now, we’re watching the last match in the fourth group of the F1 World Championship in the No.1 World-Wide Martial Dao Conference. Nalan Mingxue versus Jiang Xiaoyue!” Xiao Yulv said, “Mr. Mu, do you have confidence in this contestant?”
“Of course, I have.” Mr. Mu forced himself to calm down and said, “We had some accidents earlier, but I’m very confident in my judgement.”
Loud cheers sounded from the audience stands in Qzone venue and the main venue.
“Champion of two contests!”
“Super genius!”
“New Snow will win her third championship!”
Hearing these types of cheers, Jessica who sat beside Mr. fang finally felt a bit more confident, and she thought, “It is a guaranteed win this time.”
Then, Xiao Yulv said, “In fact, Xiaoyue is quite cute. However, they are both our old friends, and we must be objective. Right, Mr. Mu?”
“Indeed,” Mr. Mu said, “Contestant Nalan Mingxue is impeccable both in experience and mindset. Comparatively, Xiaoyue is young and still lacks in these areas despite her great strength.”
“Mr. Mu, have you considered that Mr. Fang might have taught Xiaoyue some ultimate skills?” Xiao Yulv shook his head and asked.
Mu Donglai said, “Of course, I have considered that. However, Mr. Fang told us that he had never played the class of battle mage before, and he doesn’t have to lie to us about this.”
Xiao Yulv said, “What if… I mean what if you’re wrong again, Mr. Mu?”
“Then, I’m the poisonous milk!” Mu Donglai said firmly.
“Okay. Let’s return to the last match in the fourth group. The winner will advance to the next round to fight for the first three places!”
“What’s poisonous milk?” Sitting near Mr. Fang, the outlanders were bewildered.
“Hey! We asked you a question!”
Mr. Fang had no intention of talking to them.
“You-!”
Jessica had to enlist help from other people around her.
“You don’t know that?”
“Are you from some remote unknown place?”
“Which tribe of the Ultimate West Realm are you all from?”
“Pooh! Shame on you!”
The outlanders were all at a loss for words.
– Meanwhile, on the arena –
Nalan Mingxue said, “Xiaoyue, Big Sister is good to you, right? Can you go easy on me?”
“Pooh!” Jiang Xiaoyue stared at her and said angrily, “Boss told me not to believe a single word you say during the competition!”
“Um…” Nalan Mingxue’s face froze.
“Look at my skill!” Jiang Xiaoyue dashed forward like a lightning bolt.
“The match already began. We can see that Jiang Xiaoyue moved and used Sky Assault first with decisiveness! She didn’t give her opponent the chance to use Elemental Shift.”
“Contestant Nalan Mingxue is fighting with nimble moves. Once she gets close, her Crescent and Arcane Sword Blast will make it hard for her opponent to attack.”
Sword energies swept across the big screen and would have totally suppressed an ordinary opponent, not even giving the latter a chance to breath!
“In fact, it’s dangerous for Xiaoyue to transform now. If the noblesse uses Spacetime Cutter, she can’t escape with Phase Shift,” Xiao Yulv explained, “Even a Teana can’t block the explosive force of Spacetime Cutter.”
“But Nalan Mingxue must be careful with the use of Spacetime Cutter since it consumes lots of energy. If she misses, she will certainly lose to Teana Transformation!”
“Let’s see how Xiaoyue handles her opponent who uses a huge sword aggressively. Besides, her opponent’s protective energy (Super Armor) is too tough and impossible to break,” Xiao Yulv commented.
“This noblesse is really powerful…” Jessica watched the battle while eating a melon. Right now, Jiang Xiaoyue was obviously at the disadvantage; she was getting suppressed by Nalan Mingxue.
Mr. Fang glanced at Jessica without a word.
“What are you looking at?” She cast a contemptuous glance at him and continued to enjoy her melon.
Silently, Mr. Fang took out a bottle of iced red tea.
He dropped a few ice cubes in it and shook the bottle. Then, he drank it heartily.
Then, he took out a bag of potato chips from his storage space.
He used to eat from Jiang Xiaoyue’s bag. Today, he opened one bag himself while Jiang Xiaoyue was busy.
Crunch! Crunch…
Sipping iced red tea and crunching on the chips while watching the match, he enjoyed himself very much.
Eating 1,000-year-old spiritual melon and sipping spiritual wine on the side, Carl was at a loss for words.
This native is so brazen as to eat this garbage in front of our spiritual delicacies!
At this moment, one commentator yelled, “Crescent hit its target! Tossing Slash! My Goodness! Xiaoyue is in danger!”
“Phase Shift! Phase Shift was used! We can see Nalan Mingxue coming up with Swift Sword! Will she use Spacetime Cutter now?! Xiaoyue is in mortal danger!”
Mu Donglai said, “After the Phase Shift was lured out, Nalan Mingxue is about to win!”
Then, he laughed and said, “I told you that Nalan Mingxue has the potential to win the championship, right?”
Xiao Yulv nodded and said, “Yeah… Oh! My goodness!”
Suddenly, gasps sounded from the audience stands. In the instant when Nalan Mingxue dashed up, she was thrown up into the air! Then, a big saber with dragon patterns on it shot up like a dragon flying out from an abyss!
“Stabbing Wheel broke the Swift Sword?!” After all, Swift Sword was extremely fast. To break it, the opponent must be faster than it and have a superior reaction speed, let alone sharp judgment!
“Sky Assault, Magic Missile, and followed by Dragon Strike?!”
“How can she fight back at this stage?!” Jessica felt like killing someone. Thinking that she would lose great treasures to the native sitting next to her, she had the urge to dash out and fight in person!
“How?!” Mu Donglai howled, “Don’t do this to me! One of you must win and come out of the group stage!”
“Finished. Nalan Mingxue was clearly careless.”
“Ahh-! Nalan Mingxue is fighting back! It was just a careless mistake! Her strength is undoubtedly great!”
“Flash that combined three strikes into one! Wave Sword! Her opponent got hit once! Nalan Mingxue charged without hesitation and used Ascent! Although her HP is low, Nalan Mingxue has found a good rhythm in her counterstrikes! We can see that Jiang Xiaoyue has lost the ability to fight back!” Mr. Mu and Xiao Yulv yelled in excitement and almost hugged each other.
“She’s going to win! She is winning this match. Jiang Xiaoyue’s HP is very low now, but Nalan Mingxue’s sword isn’t stopping, forcing her opponent into a corner. Spacetime Cutter! She used Spacetime Cutter! She will win!” Finally, one of the six supreme masters who Mr. Mu pointed out earlier gave them the hope of winning a match!
Forgetting to eat her melon, Jessica exclaimed on the stop, “I win! I win this time!”
Obviously, Jiang Xiaoyue would surely lose if she were touched by Spacetime Cutter.
The horrifying strike shattered the space, leaving terrifying sword marks in the space of the arena one after another.
Even the outlanders gasped at this and thought, “Such a horrifying sword technique!”
Its horrifying power shattered the space!
At this moment, another terrifying force just as powerful spread out!
“How come Xiaoyue is intact?!”
“My goodness! She used the tremendous magic power during Teana Transformation to block several sword strikes!”
When the space was shattered, the Teana was severely wounded but didn’t collapse!
“Arcane Sword Blast! Nalan Mingxue struck again! The Teana Transformation will be broken without a doubt!” A huge, horrifying spiritual sword hacked down from the sky, turning into many sword energies before exploding and making a ton of noises. The Teana who was severely injured got instantly enveloped by the overwhelming power!
“She won?!”
In the explosions of sword energies, a golden bolt of saber energy flashed by!
When the dust settled, they both lay on the ground.
“Who won?!” Mr. Mu was impatient. “Nalan Mingxue, you must win! I can’t take the bad reputation of poisonous milk!”
Jessica almost jumped up from her seat.
“Let’s watch the replay! Watch the replay!” Xiao Yulv said immediately.
In the slow replay, they saw that Xiaoyue’s Full Swing hit Nalan Mingxue first. Then, after Nalan Mingxue fell to the ground, Arcane Sword Blast hit Jiang Xiaoyue on the second strike.
Jiang Xiaoyue won the match by a very narrow margin!
“Ahh!” Jessica was about to go crazy!
Obviously, they didn’t understand the power of poisonous milk in an E-Sports competition.
“It seems like Xudong Immortal has a great successor…” Mr. Fang murmured to himself.
[TL Note: Xudong Huang was a sports caster in China. He got famous in his early years of casting soccer matches, and he later casted E-Sports matches such as League of Legends. He is famous for predicting a victor and the opposite team winning.]
From this day on, everyone remembered the six supreme-tier masters who were killed by poisonous milk in the E-Sports competition.
