Chapter 1520: A familiar-looking array?!

~5 min read 846 words

"Who won?"

"Miss Jiutiao Meise," Li Yao said with certainty.

An azure halo erupted.

Miss Jiutiao Meise used her ultimate skill:

【Protection of the Wind Spirit Star】,

an ultimate skill that significantly boosts the Agility attribute!

Miss Jiutiao Meise needed the other party's consent on the system panel to buff a practitioner,

but Tristana,

in essence, was actually a monster.

The azure halo covered Tristana,

boosting her Agility attribute by 30%!

Tristana had intended to jump onto Miss Jiutiao Meise

to inflict a slow debuff,

but because her Agility had skyrocketed,

she leaped right over Miss Jiutiao Meise's head and landed outside the boundary.

Crossing the boundary meant failure.

"Eh?" Tristana turned back, stunned, and looked at Miss Jiutiao Meise blankly.

"So that's how it is," Luo Cheng puffed on his cigarette, exhaling a cloud of smoke. "Not bad, little girl. Her combat adaptability is strong."

"Tana only used her displacement skill twice, and she keenly noticed that the opponent's jump distance was determined by the Agility attribute."

"The second time she summoned the shikigami must have been to observe this."

"And that displacement was the key."

"A direct displacement would have made Tana alert,"

"so when Tana launched her attack, she seemingly dodged the cannon fire, but actually displaced to the side of the boundary. As long as Tana used her displacement skill, she would go out of bounds."

Hearing this,

Poppy looked warily at the girl walking off the stage.

If they ever met,

Poppy would have to be extremely careful not to fall for her tricks!

The audience at the scene was stunned in surprise for a moment,

then several Title-tier powerhouses saw the mystery behind it.

After some explanation,

deafening applause rang out.

Miss Jiutiao Meise walked off the stage,

and Tristana was beside her. "Hmph! You're pretty good!"

Miss Jiutiao Meise looked at her.

If it were a life-or-death battle, she wouldn't have won—

of course, assuming she didn't play that trump card.

She had also heard Luo Lao's voice just now

and explained:

"It wasn't just from seeing it twice."

"I watched all five of Tana's previous battles very carefully."

"She really likes jumping into people's faces."

Poppy: "See? Poppy told you long ago, as a ranged fighter, don't just jump into people's faces!"

Tristana stomped her feet in anger:

"What do you know! This is called an all-out charge!"

"The romance of a gunner!"

Since there were a thousand participants,

even with multiple battles going on at once, it still lasted over five hours.

When the sky darkened, it finally ended.

Poppy lost one battle, Tana lost three, both obtaining ten wins in fifteen battles.

Miss Jiutiao Meise was extremely precarious;

she won her final life-or-death battle with difficulty, ending with a final record of fifteen battles, five wins, and ten losses.

For a Fourth Advancement practitioner,

being able to secure five wins on a battlefield where all opponents were Fifth Advancement Lord-tier was already a quite impressive record.

Moreover, her trump card was still held in her hand

and had never been used.

Li Yao won all his battles

and only experienced one battle.

That battle wasn't worth mentioning—

the moment the battle started,

Kha'Zix's scythe-claws were already resting on the opponent's neck.

The Promotion Battle ended.

The watching Yordles gradually dispersed.

Soon,

only the fifty-four winners who had obtained ten wins remained in the center of the square.

In a thousand-person melee, if all were completed,

the number of people obtaining ten wins would definitely be more than this.

But battle is no child's play;

some who were seriously injured could not recover their combat power in a short time even with treatment.

Under normal circumstances, as long as you lost two battles, you were out of the 【Promotion Battle】 for the day.

And the reason Miss Jiutiao Meise could fight for so long

was entirely because Mu Xiaoxiao was supporting her from behind.

The strongest healing-type of the younger generation on Blue Star couldn't be compared to these Yordles.

Even if she had broken hands or feet, Mu Xiaoxiao could reattach them on the spot.

After the crowd dispersed,

the square suddenly became quiet.

Only about a hundred people remained,

all of whom were the Yordles to be promoted to the Upper City, or their family members or friends.

Poppy and Tristana also had two friends,

who were currently saying their reluctant goodbyes.

"Don't worry! Even if it's hard to come down, Tana will definitely come down to visit you!" Tristana promised, patting her chest.

"Don't," the Yordle floating in mid-air knew very well

that since no Yordles had come down for so many years, there must be many obstacles and difficulties.

"Tana and Poppy should just stay well up there."

"Could it be that..."

"Tana thinks Yuumi can't go to the Upper City?"

"Of course not!"

The Apostle gave everyone plenty of time to say goodbye.

About half an hour later, he led the fifty-four winners and walked toward the outside of the city.

Shang Yana and the others returned to the Congress Grand Hotel.
