Andasu and the Lion-Tiger sisters entered the scene, and the Gluttony Group opposite them was a group of standard Newbis adventurers.
A pot-bellied human warrior holding a shield and sword acts as the vanguard, a petite young thief from the Dodger tribe is ready to strike with a light crossbow, an elven sword dancer serves as a melee spearhead, a round-faced human female mage holds a staff with her face painted, and a strong and fat shaman in tribal attire and chain mail is responsible for treatment.
Bonnie and Penny, wearing brass knuckles in their hands, stood on either side of Andasu. In front of them, a member of the Sand Beast Gang was holding a small round shield, and behind them was a shooter with a crossbow.
The human warriors and the elven sword dancers approached slowly with rhythmic steps, making preliminary probing movements.
At this time, the crossbow arrows of the Douding girl and the fireballs released by the female magician passed by them and hit the Sand Beast Gang.
"Oh! No moral ethics! I like it!" Huozui Zhongde said with a smile.
The Sand Beast Gang did not have a vanguard that could provide solid defense, so the five of them spread out to avoid the two long-range attacks.
Feeling that they were a little panicked, the strange man from the Gluttony Team smiled, and the Elf Sword Dancer ran quickly, approaching Andasu quickly, and the rapier in his hand instantly slashed out several phantoms.
"Don't think about it!"
The sandstorm tigress Bonnie roared, and her tower-like body slammed into the elf. The elf, who was known for his height, looked like a skinny monkey in front of her.
Bonnie's charge was so swift that the sword dancer spun around and barely avoided it, taking the opportunity to draw his sword and strike back, but the blade hit the brass knuckles that were blocking it.
Although sword dancers are known for their agility, if their attack power is not strong enough, they are not worthy of being called melee spearheads. But when this sword was struck, the tigress's left arm, which was responsible for blocking, hardly moved.
She clenched her right fist and punched the elf directly on the left side of its body.
The elf leaned back to dodge, the air crackling from Bonnie's powerful punch, the wind from the punch blew past, and the elf nimbly somersaulted to create distance between itself and the fierce fighter.
"Oh, this is starting to get interesting!" said the man with the broken mouth. "Everyone knows the underground arena's overlords, the Sandstorm Tigress and the Sandstorm Lioness sisters. Look, Lioness Penny can even suppress an Armored Warrior. She's truly terrifying. Any man who follows them will have to hide in the bathroom every day, right?"
"You bastard, I'll tear your mouth apart later!"
Penny cursed as she rained down heavy punches. The pot-bellied warrior raised his shield to block, defending and retreating at the same time.
A dwarf jumped out from the shadows behind the warrior, holding a dagger and stabbing directly at Penny's waist.
The lioness kicked the warrior back, opened the five fingers of her two big hands, and directly captured the Douding tribe thief.
"Oh? Is it going to appear? The Sandstorm Lioness's neck-breaking grab! This secret move has killed many good fighters in the ring!" Reed said.
The little thief knew that she couldn't take it head-on, so she dodged quickly with her short legs as fast as a phantom. A fireball flew from behind her and hit Penny head-on. It was the female mage who was supporting her.
Penny rolled to avoid the fireball, and the flames exploded on the sand, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Captain, is there a strange fragrance?" The shaman, holding lightning in his hand and aiming, suddenly said to the warrior.
"Yes," the sorceress said, "it tastes a bit like the spice cakes from Jia Bakery."
"It's over." Anda Suying said in a faint voice.
Everyone in the Gluttony Group was stunned, their legs went weak and they fell to the ground.
"No, I mean, is it interesting? Both games ended without much fighting!"
Huo Zui De cursed, "Did our Platinum Ace use poison? How despicable! But the on-site inspection didn't find anything, so there's nothing we can do. A win is a win! I'll fire the inspector later!"
He sighed, "Next match, the Star Flower Brigade vs. the Rock Crusher Team—"
He suddenly became energetic again: "Here it comes, here comes what you like to see!"
Zoe stood up expressionlessly: "Let's go."
The girl quickly drew out the Sword of Breath of Wind, and as she stepped forward, golden ripples emerged from her body.
Under the hood, her face was painted with dark green eye shadow, her long dark green hair and golden scale crown were covered by the edge of the hood, and the tail of the holy snake was hidden under the white back of her skirt armor.
Alulu raised her shield and trotted after them, the waves surged.
Dorothy held the golden sand wand in her hand and walked gracefully.
The girls stopped in the middle of the field, facing the Rock Crusher fighters with playful expressions on their faces.
The burly man from the Ox-Horn Tribe in front of them had a face full of scars, a broken horn inlaid with metal spikes, and was of great stature. He held a heavy sword made of monster bones in his hand, and was visually almost twice as tall as Zoe.
He sneered contemptuously, "I'm the captain of the Rock Crusher Team, Quinn. I'm the last person you'll ever see in your life."
The audience in the arena burst into laughter.
Zoe clenched her palms, and precious light flashed under her hood, and tiny stars appeared in an instant. The multiple colors even covered the gold on the surface of her amber scales. The brilliant precious light gathered in the palm of her hand, and the green energy torrent swept up a violent wind and directly hit the giant with bull horns.
Before he could retract his sneer, he was struck head-on by the violent wind, and cracks appeared on the animal hide armor on his chest as it ripped and cracked.
Quinn's repeated retreats were unable to relieve the impact. He held the bone knife with one arm to protect his face to prevent his eyes from being destroyed by the dense wind blades, and used the other arm to support himself as his body fell to the ground.
The girl spun around and jumped up, her skirt and armor fluttering, like a gold and white flower dancing in the wind.
She slashed with the sword in her hand, and the ruthless wind blades transformed from the blue energy emitted by the gem rays around her were drawn by her sword and slashed at the horned strong man together. The parts that were missed cut countless blade marks on the white sand ground.
After the wind blade, the physical sword blade mercilessly slashed the captain of the Rock Crushing Team dozens of times, staining the sand with a large area of crisscrossing bloodstains.
The man with horns had a ferocious look on his face and fell to the sand in disbelief. His heavy body raised a cloud of dust and he was unable to stand up.
The girl raised her sword and pointed it at the silent seats like a library. Under her hood, her delicate face was full of smiles. The first day of fighting ended.
"Oh my god! This is outrageous. This little girl actually defeated Quinn head-on! Our previous champion!"
Huo Zui De shouted loudly.
Although his words were panicked and unexpected, his face was filled with an excited smile.
"With such a violent attack, could she be the dark horse of this competition?!"
After the host finished speaking, the silent arena suddenly erupted into thunderous applause.
Although the audience wants to see bloody and brutal scenes, unexpected situations can make people more excited and look forward to it.
If you can't see the defending champions crushing the delicate girls, then it's more interesting to see them being crushed by the girls.
In the stands, Mott and the other spectators came back to their senses: "What's her profession? What level is she at?"
Li Ang smiled: "Level 4, special swordsman inheritance."
Mott turned his head and glared at Li Ang. "That's impossible. That Niu Man was able to win the championship last time, so he must have a combat power of at least high level 5. Did you hide an energy source for her? Or is her weapon special?"
"I guess so." Li Ang said.
"It seems you are really serious about starting a group."
"What do you mean? Did you still suspect me of ill intentions until just now?"
Mott turned his head away.
"Hey, speak." Leon patted the young man with animal ears on the shoulder, and the latter just stared at the field.
On the field, a chainmail-clad shaman from the Rockbreaker team raised his arms, summoned a wave of healing water, and splashed it on the fallen Quen.
The burly bull-man managed to stand up, and the shaman dragged him back, intending to heal his wounds and let him return to the battlefield.
Two Rock Crusher soldiers rushed towards Zoe with knives in hand. One of them cursed, "You little bitch! You're so arrogant just because you have such superior equipment!"
He held the knife in both hands and slashed forward, with a sharp edge appearing on the blade.
"Hey! The Rock Crusher Team is still amazing!" Huo Zui Zi De praised: "Everyone can control the blade!"
The blade edge that the host mentioned is an ability mastered by melee professions above level 4.
For professionals at the extraordinary level, their strength is mainly reflected in the use of magic to shape matter. This is most obvious in spellcasters, who usually can freely manipulate the matter created by spells - including elements and various energies.
However, melee professions can only draw a limited amount of magic power. At level 3 and below, magic power is used to strengthen the body and deliver fierce attacks. After level 4, only a very few people can add elements to their attacks.
Elemental swordsmen like Zoe have a special inheritance and can control the elements, so they can often condense elemental attacks directly during slashes.
It was only after she reached the 4th level that she was able to create flames with her sword strikes, and launch the wind element attack that just now used the wind sword technique to draw the gem rays away.
Before this, her wind blades were all generated by the dormant 3rd-tier Noble Phantasm, the Sword of Breath of Wind, and their quantity and quality were inferior to the attack just now.
Ordinary melee professionals, in most cases, use magic to reshape the edge of their weapons, forcing out a blade edge that is stronger than the original weapon, and then they are qualified fighters in the extraordinary realm.
Mott shook his head and said, "The Flashing Field is still in the four major airspaces after all, and the Blade's Edge is rare."
Zoe raised the Sword of Breath of Wind, and the earth element made the sword's body wider, steadily defending against the swordsman who rushed towards her. With her other hand, she grasped the hilt of the replica sword of Burning Talent, and with a shake of her wrist, the flaming blade burst out.
The blazing fire blades slashed down rapidly, forcing the charging Rock Crusher soldiers to retreat hastily, with several parts of their skin being burned.
Li Ang felt that Zoe's ultimate move also had an updated trend.
Her previous "Gas Slash" was based on her only having mastered the wind sword technique and holding a wind-type treasure. After acquiring all four elements, she is no longer the same as before.
The other two members of the Rock Crusher team bypassed Zoe and charged towards Dorothy.
It's obvious that the half-elf is not good at sports, and she is holding a magic wand, so it is more correct to attack the caster first in battle.
The lady in the golden robe waved her cane as if she was attending a ball. The golden sand patterns around her flowed down, and a golden sand tent suddenly rose up. The two fighters were caught off guard and crashed directly into the golden tent.
The flying golden sand began to flow instantly, and the fine, hard and beautiful sand seemed to become a sharp blade in an instant, cutting countless tiny wounds on the bodies of the two fighters, making them covered in blood.
The two of them tried to get out of the range in a hurry, but Alulu, who was standing next to them, rushed over with a shield and knocked them back one by one with the shield surface.
Mott said to Leon, "The combination of this entire set of magical equipment gives the priestess powerful spells that can be used both offensively and defensively. I just saw Faronio's shop. Did you order your equipment from her?"
"If I say I did it myself, would you believe me?"
After staring at Leon's face for a while, Mott sighed. "Although I don't understand how you could master equipment manufacturing in less than a month after leaving Soul Peak, I'm honestly not too surprised. You were able to help them get first place and even use the spell to control Fukat's mind. The rest seems normal."
"That's not that serious. It's just a hint."
Mott pointed at the field and said, "Where's that girl from the Bullhorn Tribe? I don't think she's even at the Transcendent Realm. She's relying purely on brute force. What's going on?"
"Gifted."
"I have a feeling your group will stir up a huge storm in the Demonic Disaster Realm in the future."
Mott was silent for a while, then asked, "Will you go to Lupus later?"
"Hmm? Did I mention this?"
"I simply asked if you were going, but since you said that, it seems like you are going."
"Is there any situation over there?" Li Ang asked.
Mott shook his head slightly: "After this matter is over, I will talk to you again."
Seeing that the young man with animal ears was acting strangely, Li Ang had no clue and did not ask any further questions.
In the venue, Quinn, the captain of the Rock Crusher Team, returned to the battlefield after continuous treatment from the Shaman.
This time he did not dare to be careless. With the cooperation of the other two, he waved the bone knife and attacked Zoe together.
The bone knife in his hand was a weapon of a certain level, perhaps it came from some special monster. Under the stimulation of magic, the bone blade on the surface became longer and sharper. When it chopped towards Zoe, it could even chop off the autonomous earth shield that automatically emerged.
"Hah!" Alulu shouted and swept her hammer across, forcing back the Rock Crusher Team and protecting Zoe behind her shield.
The hem of Zoe's skirt fluttered behind her, and the small part of her pointed snake tail that was originally exposed disappeared, replaced by an ice-blue beast tail.
"Oh? It's very strange? Although I can't see clearly, but why do I feel that the aura of the sword-wielding girl has become completely different?" Huozui Zhongde said.
Zoe raised her hand, and around her, ice condensed into dozens of sword blades, spinning and flying out.
"Does she even know level 6 moves?" Mott shrugged.
After reaching level 5, the ability of magic to shape matter is enhanced. At this time, the most efficient way to use it is to turn it into a material shield, or attach protective gear to the body, or levitate it beside the body.
Similarly, level 5 equipment will begin to have the ability to transform. Simple transformation means that its material structure is superimposed on the surface to form multiple layers of defense. This is how Lancelot, who Leon worked with, and Fukat, who he defeated, defended themselves when wearing standard equipment.
If the equipment is well made, it can also change its form, but blind transformation may not be effective and may even reduce defense.
High-end craftsmen will only do this if they can make the equipment deform effectively.
Dorothy is in this state at the moment. Under the effect of the Rock Array, the level of her equipment has been upgraded to 5. The dust and gold sand attached to it have transformed and fallen off, gathering together to form a spell that can manipulate specific substances.
After reaching level 6, both professionals and equipment will have a higher level of control over magic power. At this time, the most efficient choice is to condense material weapons.
On the island of Satus, Leon once shaped an elemental ice sword, while the standard multi-blade sword used by Lancelot can be transformed into a floating blade.
But the secret technique Zoe unleashed with the energy of the Star Soul Light - the Arctic Punishment - was essentially learned through resonating with Eden's power, but at her stage, it could also be considered that she had mastered the sixth-level attack method in advance.
The ice blade shot out in a rotation, and its sharp edge slashed horizontally at the same time. The members of the Rock Crushing Team immediately leaned forward to dodge, but by dodging in this way, they almost completely gave up the chance of winning or losing in the future.
Under the continuous attacks of the three girls, the Rock Crusher Team was quickly defeated.
"Today was incredible! Even the defending champions looked so inferior. I wonder if they can make it back from the loser's bracket."
Huo Zui Zhongde shouted, "Everyone, was this trip worthwhile?! There's only one more winner's bracket match left, and then it's the loser's bracket round. I wonder if there will be any surprises?"
"Everyone, grab your tickets for tomorrow too!"
After four winners' group matches, the losers' group will play three rounds in a row. In the first round, four teams will be eliminated, and the four winners will face the four losing teams in the winners' group. Then the four winners of these eight teams will face off again. After two teams are decided, today's game will come to an end.
These two loser-group teams will wait for the two losers after tomorrow's top four teams battle.
