“What did you say?!!!”
At the peak, Shi Jingjing widened her eyes in disbelief, screaming out loud after hearing about Chen Mobai’s combat achievements.
-He took out Qiao Xingwen in just one minute! You’re not under some illusion spell, are you?”
Cao Yaling knew Shi Jingjing wouldn’t believe her. If Cao Yaling hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn’t have believed it either.
Even she, a cultivator of Qi Cultivation Rank-8, couldn’t take out Qiao Xingwen in just one minute.
Perhaps only someone like Gong Xiangyu with Qi Cultivation Rank-9, along with the use of powerful charms and spells, could do such a thing.
“The video has been uploaded, you can see for yourself.
Cao Yaling opened the betting site, where one magic duel video after another
had been uploaded according to the bracket.
She selected the match between Chen Mobai and Qiao Xingwen, clicked on the small triangular button between the portraits of both players, and immediately began to buffer a short video.
Really short, just one minute.
Shi Jingjing immediately leaned over to watch.
She saw that after the referee stepped down, Qiao Xingwen tantahzingly launched two Spirit Pills, and Chen Mobai avoided the attack with a conventional Propulsion Technique.
But that was exactly what Qiao Xingwen had anticipated. He predicted Chen Mobai’s landing point from the Propulsion Technique, and three more powerful spirit Pills burst out from his fingertips, calculating every possible direction Chen Mobai could move.
Isn’t this over then?
Just as Shi Jingjing was thinking this, a Wooden Shield charm lit up in Chen
Mobai’s hand.
Hmm, a pretty good response.
Just as Shi Jingjing thought this, Chen Mobai threw out another charm with an even brighter spiritual light.
Watery light shimmered like waves but in an instant it formed into a sword, striking in front of Qiao Xingwen.
A Rank-1 intermediate grade “Water Sword Talisman”, so the opponent was taken down just like that?
just as Shi Jingjing was grappling with her confusion, Qiao Xingwen confidently used an Earth Shield Talisman, and with just this lower-grade defensive talisman, was able to block the Water Sword Talisman that Chen Mobai seemed to have thrown out in panic.
Then, Qiao Xingwen’s right hand spread open, and five Spirit Pills exploded, covering the advancing Chen Mobai who had to stop and dodge left and right to avoid the Spirit Pill attack.
Just as one of the Spirit Pills was about to touch Chen Mobai, Qiao Xingwen suddenly froze and slumped unconscious.
Shi Jingjing immediately rewound the video, replayed it at half speed, and watched three times over, even using her Spirit Eye to discern what had actually happened.
She saw that the water from the Water Sword Talisman, which had originally been blocked by the Earth Shield Talisman, had turned into a stream that flowed beside Qiao Xingwen’s foot. And when he used the Spirit Pills, this stream of water seemed to possess spirituality, like a Spirit snake, it flowed from the edge of the raised shield on the stone platform at his feet to behind him, rising up to the back of Qiao Xingwen’s head.
Then, a transparent water rod slammed down heavily.
Without any defense, Qiao Xingwen was knocked unconscious.
“Water Controlling Technique?”
Shi Jingjing’s face showed a hint of hesitation, Cao Yaling lightly nodded. “The Water Sword Talisman was merely a decoy. Qiao Xingwen believed he had blocked this Rank-1 intermediate grade attacking talisman, directing all his attention towards any possible Rank-1 superior grade talisman that Chen Mobai could have potentially used. But he didn’t anticipate that while the sword of the Water Sword Talisman was just an illusion, the real attack was the water after the sword dispersed.”
“Because we could use talismans, we all placed our trump cards on them, forgetting that the main purpose of a Magic Duel was to test our flexible use of spells.”
“Chen Mobai, although he seems average, has grasped the core of all this. A simple Water Controlling Technique, combined with a Water Sword Talisman and an appropriate strategy, was enough to easily defeat a powerful opponent like Qiao Xingwen.”
Cao Yaling personally witnessed Chen Mobai step by step designing this strategy, making Qiao Xingwen believe he controlled the overall situation, but then using the simplest of Water Controlling Technique to defeat his opponent. Before Shi Jingjing arrived, she had analyzed this intricate and magnificent duel in her head countless times.
But the more she analyzed, the more she admired Chen Mobai.
Who knew dueling could be so simple!
There was no need for powerful talismans or advanced cultivation spells. Just one useful spell at the right time could easily crush an opponent who seemed unbeatable.
“Where did he go?”
Shi Jingjing looked up and asked.
“He reportedly made plans to have lunch with Professor Chan.” “Let’s go, we’re going to… no, we’re going to join them for lunch!” Before Cao Yaling’s eyes could widen in surprise, Shi Jingjing had already dragged her in the direction Chen Mobai had departed, while simultaneously sending a message to him.
The two had previously added each other as friends when Chen Mobai wanted to ask her about the betting site.
But Chen Mobai was apparently not using his phone and had ignored her. Just as Shi Jingjing was about to give up, she saw that Professor Chan had made a call.
“How did you guys get here?”
In the snack street of Cinnabarite Institute, Chen Mobai returned after ordering five small dishes to find several familiar classmates sitting at his table.
in addition to the familiar Song Zheng and Mo Simin, there were Xu Yuan, Shi Yuanqing, and others.
Basically, more than half of the students from their school had arrived. “I’m your teacher. Since you’re here at the Cinnabarite Institute to take your admission test, it’s only natural for me as your host to welcome you, so I called everyone.”
Chan Si, with a smile, sat down at the end of the long table. He gestured to the restaurant owner and ordered food for two more tables.
“I guess I won’t be buying lunch after all.”
Chen Mobai felt frustrated at how difficult it was for him to treat Chan Si to a meal.
“You’ll get your chance. After all, you’ve entered the next round, haven’t you?” “Huh, how did you know? According to the odds, wasn’t my chance of defeating Qiao Xingwen only 1%?”
Chen Mobai hadn’t yet told Chan Si and Fu Xuejie about his duel results when he met them.
“At first, I thought you had been eliminated and didn’t want to bring up that sad topic but now your duel video is being widely shared in the forums of Red Sandstone City.”
Shen Juanxiu looked at Chen Mobai, whose eyes were brimming with excitement. After hearing this, he immediately took out his phone and entered the forum.
[Amazing upset-the Rank-7 Cultivator is defeated by a Rank-6] [The Magic Duel Artwork of the Fifth High School Top Scholar-just one simple Water Controlling Technique can turn the tide.]
[Is the Third High School just too weak, or is the Fifth High much too strong?] [Such devious tactics.]
After seeing the titles of the first dozen or so posts with small flame symbols, Chen Mobai, full of excitement, clicked to enter.
Reading the complimentary comments about him made him involuntarily reveal a happy smile.
Then, Chan Si and the others watched as Chen Mobai actually posted a message directly on the forum.
[Thankyou all for your discussions. I, Chen Mobai, will continue to honor the Fifth High School’s reputation in this Magic Duel. Please continue to support our school.]
