Nine Star Burden - Chapter 558
Chapter 558: The king of sea burial
On June 10th, in the small auditorium on the first floor of the hotel where the Chinese individual competition team was staying, Edo, Japan.
The students who had already lost the game, the substitutes who had no chance to play at all, Jiang Xiao and Wu Xiaojing, the two preparatory students, the leading teacher, and the nearly 20 team staff who came from China, filled up almost half of the small auditorium.
Everyone was very nervous as they looked at the big screen in front of them, watching the drawing of lots for the fourth round.
There were only 82 people left. After three rounds of great waves, those who remained were truly the strongest of the strong.
Jiang Xiao sat beside the bald Xing Yan and could tell that Xing Yan cared a lot about his hairstyle. It had been so many days, but it was still so shiny. He must have cut his hair often …
The trip to the World Cup had made the fiery-tempered man feel extremely stifled. Sometimes, he even wondered why he had followed Jiang Xiao back to the audience seats when he was in China. Couldn’t he have just left?
In this hotel, one had to apply for permission to go anywhere, and it might not even be approved. It was just like going to jail.
It was a pity that before the first round of the competition began, no accidents happened. There were no assassinations by enemy countries, no incidents of trouble, and no one withdrew from the competition for personal reasons.
All of the contestants were alive and kicking. Xing Yan could only watch the competition from his hotel and give his blessings to them …
“Ah, Oh~Xie xiaohei.” Jiang Xiao saw that Xie xiaohei’s character image had appeared in the first position on the screen, with a black fist band in his mouth and his head being pulled back.
…
It was fine the first time, the second time was fine, but the third time … This was the fourth time he had seen it. Wasn’t he tired of holding a fist in his mouth every day?
“Wow, this girl is pretty.” Jiang Xiao sighed softly and Wu Xiaojing, who was on the other side of the aisle, turned around and rolled her eyes at him.
Compared to the sulky Jiang Xiao, the team members were sighing and seemed to be worried about the outcome.
On the top right of the second character, a Blue Flag with a red base was hanging high.
In the image, a woman with thick golden hair appeared, and several blue and white Electric currents were crawling on her body.
Her skin was so white that it could be described as “pale.” Even the blood vessels on the back of her hands were clearly visible. However, she was not sick. Her skin was like that.
“The kingdom of the North, stigma Reed.”
“Her casting speed of her lightning STAR technique is too fast. It’ll be difficult for her to deal with Xie Xie since he’s a close-combat type,” Xing Yan mumbled.
Jiang Xiao pursed his lips and said,”that’s enough. Be content. At least you’re not the captain of the northern kingdom. You’re just a melee hammer user. You’re just like Thor in the couplet.”
“Europe isn’t that big, but there are too many people who made it into the top 82. Northern Europe is the ‘disaster area’ for god-like figures.”
Beside Wu Xiaojing, Xin AIAN reached out her little hand and gently patted the back of her hand.””Don’t worry, you won’t get the lightning element. ”
However, Jiang Xiao was amused.”Thanks to Xin AIAN’s words. If I dare to comfort people like that, I’m sure I’ll get it right. Wu Xiaojing, you definitely won’t run away from lightning King!” He said.
Wu Xiaojing couldn’t help but stretch out her long leg and kick from the other side of the aisle …
Xin AIAN also glared at Jiang Xiao angrily.
“After that, I clearly came.” Zhao Wenlong sat right behind Jiang Xiao and said, upon which the auditorium immediately fell silent.
Seat number one! No problem, there’s a small field advantage.
After a few seconds … Ding! Ding! Character confirmed!
The flag had blue and white stripes, and there was a sun icon in the middle.
South American Eagle! The ating Republic!
The crowd was still observing the well-behaved young man with curly hair. Behind him, master Zhao faintly said,””He’s the only heir to the ating Republic, sigh …”
Wu Xiaojing covered her mouth and chuckled,”Captain, you’re going to send away a country.”
“Slurp … Ha …” Zhao Wenlong couldn’t help but take a sip of tea. He let out a long sigh,”they’re really trying to exterminate us.”
Jiang Xiao immediately nodded.”You’re doomed to destruction!” He exclaimed.
For a moment, everyone looked over in confusion.
What was this toxic healer saying?
Did he have such a huge grudge against her?
Jiang Xiao looked embarrassed and asked,”What are you looking at? Don’t you know my name? Toxic healer! This is a prophecy STAR technique that I specially invented: Reverse toxic healer! I guarantee that I’ll live to a hundred years old and die alone!”
Zhao Wenlong,”pfft …” Cough, cough …”
Jiang Xiao immediately jumped up!
Zhao Wenlong spat out a mouthful of hot tea onto the back of his head. Endurance was diamond endurance, but it didn’t matter if it was hot!
After the chaos, the situation was quickly brought under control.
Jiang Xiao wiped the back of his head with a towel and looked up at the big screen.
In the back row, Zhao Wenlong carefully pushed the thermos cup to the side and wiped the wet table.
Finally, he stopped his “suckling” behavior to avoid the “pfft, cough, cough” situation.
“They’re coming!” Jiang Xiao’s eyes lit up and he saw the embers of the Star Warriors of Magic City.
Yu Jin’s performance in the previous match had indeed impressed Jiang Xiao. He didn’t expect Yu Jin to be so well-hidden. It turned out that the mist was just his normal state, and the flames were his true form!
Jiang Xiao had never heard of such a STAR technique before. No one had ever seen him use it in the domestic selection competition or even during his university life. It was as if he had just exploded.
The character in the second position quickly changed and finally stopped.
The red, white, and blue flags were confirmed and floated up. On the screen, a girl who looked like she was from East Asia appeared. She was extremely beautiful.
“A great beauty of the kingdom of taiman, Hmph.” Wu Xiaojing’s gritted voice came from beside him.”You’re really lucky.”
Jiang Xiao glanced at Wu Xiaojing carefully and looked at her cold face, but he didn’t dare to respond.
“If I’m not mistaken, he’s also the only child of the kingdom of tiaman. He might be sent away as well.” Xing Yan spoke up.
Upon hearing her words, Jiang Xiao dodged to the right reflexively and turned to look at Zhao Wenlong.
Zhao Wenlong silently tightened the lid of the thermal flask and stared at Jiang Xiao innocently with his eyes wide open.
As Jiang Xiao dodged to the right, he was in the aisle. On the other side of the aisle, Wu Xiaojing reached out and pressed on Jiang Xiao’s shoulder.””Little toxic healer, give him a healer too!”
Jiang Xiao turned around.”What milk?”
Wu Xiaojing stared at the Ember on the screen and said,””The kind that will die alone.”
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and said,”I actually hope that he can make an undying pledge of love with you. You’ll have a good time.”
Wu Xiaojing was speechless.
“Aiya, stop fooling around. It’s your turn.” Xin AIAN tugged at Wu Xiaojing’s arm. Wu Xiaojing was actually Yu Jin’s next group.
And it was still seat number one! There were already four number one seats!
Wu Xiaojing looked at the screen and said to Jiang Xiao softly,””Let me tell you, if my opponent is really the Norse Thunder technique, I will … I’ll just …”
You’re what?
You can’t beat me, you can’t talk to me, what do you want to do?
Jiang Xiao grinned and thought to himself, forget it, they’re my teammates, after all. I’ll just give them a hand. “Don’t worry. I guarantee that he’s a Norse mage, the kind that specializes in lightning.”
Ding! Ding!
Character confirmed! A green, white, and red flag appeared, with a bird in the middle.
A brawny bald man with a fierce-looking face appeared. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked extremely fierce.
It was not Northern Europe, but North America.
Mo Kingdom, great owl!
Although this young man looked very tough, Wu Xiaojing was relieved and very satisfied with the draw.
The four Huaxia players had already decided on their opponents, and Jiang Xiao was the only one left.
82 contestants, 41 matches.
The lot-drawing ceremony was almost at the end. In the second last game, an extremely gorgeous flag appeared in the number one position.
The flag was made up of red, yellow, and red stripes. In the middle of the yellow stripes, on the left side, there was a shield. On both sides of the shield, there were divine pillars, and on top of the shield, there was a crown. On the shield, there was a golden castle, a Purple Lion, a golden chain net, a pomegranate flower, and so on …
The kingdom of xima!
The man on the right was even more handsome and suave! His eyes were deep, his nose was high, and he was dressed in a golden red uniform. He had the aura of an Imperial Noble.
Seat number two quickly switched to another character. There were only three contestants left. If you focused on one, you could see the change in character clearly …
Ding! Ding! The character was confirmed, and the Red Star flag in the second seat fluttered high in the upper right corner.
The little toxic healer smiled shyly, rubbed the back of her head, and barged into everyone’s view.
“F * ck!!!”
“It can’t be?”
“This isn’t the captain. This is the Royal King of sea burial …”
“Although there are only 80 or so people left and there are many strong people, Shrimpy’s 100% chance of killing gods …”
In the small hall, the staff members were sighing.
At the back of the hall, Fang Xingyun held her forehead with one hand.
I’m not … Well, have you complained? The effect was not given to the captain, but to the extremely special sea burial King?
Was it really a random match?
Such members of the royal family were completely different from ordinary Star Warriors. Although their basic techniques were similar to that of ordinary people, the strength of their advanced star techniques was extremely terrifying!
Whatever was precious would come, and whatever was powerful would come.
With a prominent identity, appropriate power, and the support of a super-rich man, the king of sea burial of the Sima Kingdom had a terrifying underwater ability. Otherwise, he would not have been given the title of “King of sea burial.”
As for his water skills, of course, he couldn’t be too bad.
Sea burial King was good at turning any battlefield into his home field.
Wu Xiaojing turned to look at Jiang Xiao with a look of pity in her eyes. She leaned over and patted Jiang Xiao’s shoulder gently.”Good luck.”
Zhao Wenlong patted Jiang Xiao’s back gently and said,””Good luck.”
Xing Yan clenched his fists and gestured at Jiang Xiao.””Kill him!”
Jiang Xiao nodded with a sullen expression. Over the past few days, he had watched a lot of competitions under the guidance of the analyst and studied some special contestants that he had to pay attention to. The king of sea burial was one of them.
After all, fighting underwater was not Jiang Xiao’s forte.
Meanwhile, in a luxury hotel somewhere in Japan.
In a luxurious suite, two people were sitting on the sofa and watching TV.
One of the handsome young men was holding his head in his hands, looking incredulous.
He muttered a string of Western words,””No! Don’t be like this! Why? I don’t want to hit this toxic healer from Huaxia!”
The teacher-in-charge at the side hurriedly said,””Calm down. Please stay calm.”
The handsome young man buried his face in his hands and mumbled,”
“Shady business!
This must be a conspiracy!
Someone is trying to get me down!
They don’t want me to enter the top 40!”

At midnight tomorrow. Please get some votes~
