Blue Card Starry Sky

Chapter 101 Five-Person Challenge

The following day, the class's one-on-one challenge began, all taking place during the day. Due to underestimating their opponents, five students were defeated and injured, but none were seriously injured or killed. This served as a warning: never underestimate your opponents, and give 200% effort in every match. To this end, Xing Meng also specially gathered everyone for important on-the-spot combat training, pointing out that it's okay to lose, but you must learn to protect yourself and strive to win next time.

Blue Sky and his team, the Overlords, have already won one match and need a few days of rest before they can schedule their second. They spend their time observing other students' one-on-one battles in the Grand Arena to gain experience.

The challenges in the Grand Arena are not battles between students; these are real fights. Victory brings rewards, including a share of the bets and monetary rewards from the arena administrators. Losers gain nothing and may even perish in battle! Therefore, every match is a life-or-death struggle and cannot be taken lightly.

The first day's individual matches made everyone understand the true meaning of competition. Every subsequent match demanded everyone's full attention and dedication, with no room for distraction or negligence.

Blue Sky's Overlord team is about to face their second round of battles. The best news for them is that they know their opponent in advance. Once confirmed, the lineup cannot be changed. And this time, their opponent is far stronger than the Flying Eagle team from last time! It's the Cheetah team, who have already won three consecutive matches.

The Cheetah Team consists entirely of ninth-tier powerhouses with skills in all five elements: wind, ice, water, fire, and earth. They already have the upper hand against the Overlord Team. This time, the Overlord Team will find it very difficult to win and may suffer heavy casualties.

The matches are still scheduled for the evenings, allowing for higher stakes and packed audiences. This remains the main source of revenue for the Grand Arena.

As the host announced the start, the battle officially began. The Cheetah Team had an ice-attribute archer who was very skilled at ranged attacks. From the start, the Tyrant Team deployed a defensive formation to guard against the ranged archer's attacks.

The opponent used earth-attribute skills to attack, and the ninth-level landslide shook the arena. A super-powerful tornado followed, and ice arrows flew in one after another.

The Cheetah Team unleashed their strongest offensive, determined to defeat the Tyrant Team. Meanwhile, Elante and Blue Sky formed a solid defensive wall. Hai Liang's water wall was at the forefront, neutralizing the opponent's powerful attacks, while Blue Sky and Elante conjured a wall of torches to absorb the incoming energy impact.

The ice arrows instantly vaporized upon encountering the fire of the phoenix, rendering them fatal. While they were defending, the opponent's blazing fireball struck, exploding within their defensive formation. The Batian team was severely injured, with Cao Yuqing being blasted away. The opponent's energy was simply too powerful; she couldn't withstand the impact and was thrown to the edge of the arena, spitting out a mouthful of blood before collapsing to the ground.

Seeing this, Lan Tian flew over and supported her to prevent her from fainting.

"Sister Yuqing, how are you? Can you still hold on?" Lantian asked anxiously.

"Blue Sky, I can't move anymore, I can't help you!"

"It's alright, go down and get treated first. We'll definitely beat them. Don't worry, you'll get a share of the victory too." Lan Tian told Cao Yuqing to go down and get treatment, abandoning the fight. Now, only four people remained against the five members of the Cheetah Team. All four had just suffered considerable injuries, and now their situation was even worse. Losing a teammate significantly reduced their fighting strength!

The Cheetah Team gave the Tyrant Team no chance to breathe, launching a barrage of attacks. Their defensive shields crumbled under the onslaught of ice arrows, leaving them completely exposed to the enemy's attacks and defenseless.

With a whoosh, the four people on the field were all hit by ice feather arrows, and were in great pain. They quickly activated their defensive skills to resist the opponent's attacks.

Seeing this situation, in this critical moment, Lantian had no choice but to use his defensive armor. "Little cutie, defensive armor, fully armed."

"Yes, Master."

Suddenly, golden light appeared above the blue sky, enveloping his entire body, and golden armor flew in from all directions, sticking to his body.

"click"

In an instant, Lan Tian donned a golden suit of armor, his fiery red cloak billowing behind him, making him quite eye-catching. A long spear descended from the sky, landing steadily in front of Lan Tian.

"Ah~~~" Colorful wings spread out behind the blue sky.

With a long roar, Lan Tian, ​​filled with rage at Cao Yuqing's injury, was determined to defeat the Cheetah Team on the field.

Lan Tian flew straight towards the Cheetah team at high speed, his long gun sweeping out like a thousand troops sweeping across the world.

The sudden change astonished the Cheetah Team. Staring at Lan Tian's transformation, they were stunned, forgetting to attack or defend. The overwhelming pressure, the surging power, the mysterious energy fluctuations—all of this left them utterly convinced and unable to resist.

After the gust of wind from the gunshot, the five members of the Cheetah Team were blasted out of the arena. They were slammed heavily against the stone wall outside the arena with loud thuds, their internal organs seemingly displaced, leaving them severely injured and unable to get up.

Even Lan Tian himself didn't know the full power of his attack; sweeping away thousands of troops would either kill them or severely injure them. This was Lan Tian's first all-out attack after being enraged, but it wasn't even his strongest attack yet, which shocked him.

"Uh...uh, the Overlord Team has won." The host was also shocked. The battle rules did not prohibit the use of divine artifacts, so everyone assumed that Lan Tian had used a divine artifact and won the second team battle!

Everyone present witnessed Lan Tian's transformation, seeing the golden armor he conjured on the field seemingly out of thin air. It was a divine artifact, exceeding all expectations in both offense and defense. Hai Liang wasn't surprised; she had seen Lan Tian wear this armor in battle before. However, its power today astonished her—a divine armor!

Elantra and Liu Dongping were also stunned! The people in the audience had the same thought: this amazing artifact made them extremely envious.

Upon hearing of the victory, Lan Tian ignored the astonishment of everyone present and went directly to check on Cao Yuqing's injuries. Cao Yuqing was receiving treatment in the rest room; everything was normal except for a fracture, which would require some rest to fully recover.

Finally, they were relieved! Lan Tian and his group returned to the Spirit Hall to prepare for their third challenge. Back at the villa in the backyard, they unexpectedly encountered Hall Master Zhao Qingyun, who came to pay them a visit. He was curious about Lan Tian's performance on the field, and the transforming armor he wore was something he had never seen before; he needed Lan Tian to explain it to him.
