Chapter 629: A familiar-looking array?!

"Who won?"

"Kujo Mise," Li Yao said firmly.

A deep blue halo erupted.

Kujo Mise used her ultimate skill,

[Protection of the Wind Spirit Star],

an ultimate skill that significantly boosts the Agility attribute!

Kujo Mise needed to get the other party’s consent on the system panel to amplify a professional.

But Tristana,

in essence, was actually considered a monster.

The deep blue halo covered Tristana,

and her Agility attribute skyrocketed by 30%!

Tristana had intended to jump onto Kujo Mise

to inflict a slowing debuff on her,

but because her Agility skyrocketed,

she leaped right over Kujo Mise’s head and landed outside the boundary.

Crossing the boundary meant failure.

"Huh?" Tristana turned her head, bewildered, and stared blankly at Kujo Mise.

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

"Tana only used her displacement skill twice before she keenly sensed 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 appeared to be dodging the cannon fire, but in reality, she displaced to the edge 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 down from the stage.

If they ever met,

Poppy had to be extremely careful not to fall for her tricks!

The audience at the scene was stunned in place, looking surprised.

Then, a few title-level powerhouses saw the mystery behind it.

After some explanation,

deafening applause erupted.

Kujo Mise walked off the stage,

and Tristana was by her side. "Hmph! I guess you’re good!"

Kujo Mise glanced at her.

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

Of course, that was assuming she didn't use her trump card.

She had also heard Luo Lao’s voice just now,

so she explained:

"I didn't figure it out in just two times."

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

"She really likes jumping onto people’s faces."

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

Tristana stomped her feet in anger:

"What do you know! This is called a desperate 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 turned dark, it finally ended.

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

Kujo Mise was precarious,

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

For a Fourth-Turn professional,

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

Moreover, her trump card was still in her hand,

never having been used.

Li Yao won all his battles

and only went through one battle.

That battle wasn't even 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 Yordles watching gradually dispersed.

Soon,

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

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

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

But battle is not child’s play.

Some who were seriously injured could not recover their combat strength in a short time even after receiving treatment.

Usually, as long as you lost two battles, you were out of the [Promotion Battle] for the day.

And Kujo Mise was able to fight for so long

all thanks to Mu Mu Xiaoxiao supporting her from behind.

The strongest healing-type of the younger generation on Blue Star was not something these Yordles could compare to.

Even if a hand or foot was severed, Mu Mu Xiaoxiao could reattach it on the spot.

After the crowd dispersed,

the square suddenly became quiet.

The remaining hundred or so people

were all family members or friends of these Yordles who were to be promoted to the Upper City.

Poppy and Tristana also had two friends,

who were now 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.

No Yordle 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..."

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

"Of course not!"

The Apostle gave everyone plenty of time to say their goodbyes.

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

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

Li Yao made an agreement with them:

regardless of whether he could find information on the 'war chariot',

within three days,

he and Kujo Mise would return to the Lower City.

This time,

they left Bandle City through the South Gate.

As soon as they stepped out,

Li Yao saw a huge octagram array disk on the grassland.

"This is..."

Hearing Lingxin was not here, so Poppy took the initiative to touch Li Yao’s arm.

"The array is called 'The Lilliputians' Fury'."

"It signifies that the people of the Lilliput Kingdom, even when facing the terrifying Black Dragon God, will always maintain their fury."

"The Yordles of the Upper City will one day descend to the Lower City and slay the Black Dragon!"

"The array is maintained by the National Congress and is activated for a short while every night at this time."

Tristana added: "As long as you stand on it, *whoosh*, you disappear."

Led by the Apostle,

the fifty-four winners stood on the array disk.

By this point,

the words of farewell had already been said.

The Apostle didn't waste time; he closed his eyes and chanted the incantation.

The Yordles standing within the array all wore expressions of unconcealable excitement.

As long as they became Upper City people,

they would never have to participate in war again!

They would never have to face that terrifying Black Dragon God again!

"Whoosh!"

A rain of light fell from the sky,

as if congratulating them on their successful promotion.

Li Yao reached out and caught a piece of the light.

His astonishment just now

was not because he was asking for the name of this array,

but because he felt it was somewhat familiar.

Now, catching this light,

that sense of familiarity became even more pronounced.

He just felt

like he had entered this array sometime before.
