Chapter 173: Senior Sister, will you surrender voluntarily, or shall I help you?
Shi Yu was startled into a cold sweat!
Because he dodged in time and simultaneously used Teleportation, he managed to escape a disaster.
At this moment, he was less than a hundred meters away from the blue team's Energy Crystal.
Gazing at the Energy Crystal within arm's reach, Shi Yu went full throttle, reached into his Storage Space to take out a fist-sized black sphere, and then, relying on the momentum of his run, threw it toward the Energy Crystal ahead.
Just then, a blue ray of light streaked across the sky, and that black sphere did not land on the Energy Crystal.
Shi Yu looked up abruptly, only to see Li Er, dressed in a black combat suit, hovering in the air, and in her hand, she was holding that High-Explosive Grenade that was about to detonate.
Immediately following, Shi Yu's eyes widened sharply, and he turned to flee toward the rear.
That black High-Explosive Grenade was thrown out by Li Er, tracing a parabola straight toward the top of Shi Yu's head.
But Shi Yu was worthy of being a gold-medal instructor at the New Recruit Training Camp; just as the High-Explosive Grenade was about to detonate above his head, he suddenly changed direction with his feet and then leaped into the air.
Because his Teleportation skill had not yet cooled down, he could only rely on his own abilities this time to dodge this High-Explosive Grenade that had been thrown back at him.
However, this type of High-Explosive Grenade was specifically designed to destroy Energy Crystals, and its power was quite immense.
The grenade exploded instantly, a violent flare of fire shot into the sky, and it even blasted Shi Yu's body away.
Shi Yu only felt one side of his cheek being scorched by a searing flame, and a burning, stinging pain washed over him.
This time, he had once again escaped from a desperate situation; he silently cursed his luck, then ran desperately toward the forest ahead.
At the same time, his heart was pounding incessantly.
This Zhou Li's Soul Profession was Atom Mechanic, possessing super-high mobility.
Having just finished off Lei Jianting, she could return to her own base to provide support in the blink of an eye, and she had even caught the High-Explosive Grenade he had thrown with her bare hands.
He was an instructor who had led several sessions of the New Recruit Training Camp, but Zhou Li, this freshman, was someone he had never encountered before.
In the sky, Li Er's gaze was profound; she watched Shi Yu flee far away, and a black sniper rifle appeared in her hand.
She aimed from afar at Shi Yu's back, and the moment the opponent was about to enter the Hidden state, she decisively pulled the trigger on the sniper rifle.
Above Screaming Canyon, the prompt echoed once again: "Red team Shi Yu, OUT!"
And at this moment, not far from the red team's Energy Crystal, the only survivor, Li Mengyao, upon hearing the prompts of her teammates being eliminated one after another, no longer dared to push forward, but instead kept retreating toward the rear.
What she had not expected was that the battle-hardened Shi Yu not only failed to successfully sneak the base but was instead sent out himself.
Now that the enemy was many and she was few, Li Mengyao began to waver between surrendering and not surrendering.
At this time, because her teammates had all been sent out, there was no one left to consult with.
All decision-making power rested on her alone.
However, Li Mengyao still gritted her teeth and did not choose to surrender voluntarily.
Even if she had to lose, she had to lose with dignity; surrendering voluntarily was not her style.
Just then, a figure appeared, swaying, from a small path ahead.
Li Mengyao's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.
The fish had finally taken the bait!
The person who arrived was none other than Zhou Chu.
When Li Mengyao was arranging tactics, the person she mainly targeted was Zhou Chu.
At the time, Shi Yu's arrangement was that when encountering Zhou Li, they should avoid her as much as possible.
So, seeing Zhou Chu deliver himself to her door, Li Mengyao couldn't have been happier.
Regardless of anything else, being able to take care of Zhou Chu would be worth it.
Consequently, Li Mengyao summoned a Spirit Butterfly, and after blowing a light breath on it, the Spirit Butterfly flew slowly toward Zhou Chu.
Zhou Chu seemed to be sightseeing along the way, looking left and right from time to time, attracted by the strange scenery in Screaming Canyon, and he seemed not to have noticed that a Spirit Butterfly was already hovering above his head.
As the Spirit Butterfly fluttered, the Illusion Spirit Powder on its wings had already been sprinkled onto Zhou Chu.
But Zhou Chu remained unmoved, still observing the scenery on both sides.
Li Mengyao couldn't help but be stunned; she summoned a few more Spirit Butterflies and signaled them toward Zhou Chu.
These Spirit Butterflies kept fluttering above Zhou Chu's head until Zhou Chu turned his head back and gave her a smile.
"Senior Sister Mengyao, are you treating me like a flower?"
Li Mengyao's eyes shook, and she said with a trembling voice: "You, you can also be immune to my illusions?"
Zhou Chu smiled without answering; with a flick of his wrist, a black longbow appeared in his hand, and then he unhurriedly nocked an arrow and said slowly: "Senior Sister, will you surrender voluntarily, or shall I help you?"
Li Mengyao stomped her feet in a huff: "I don't need your help!"
Having said that, Li Mengyao chose to surrender directly.
……
At this moment, the audience at the scene, seeing Zhou Chu and Zhou Li win so easily against the first-seeded team of Shenxia University, were no longer as surprised as they had been before.
Because the surprises Zhou Chu and Zhou Li had given them were already too many, to the point that they had even become numb.
Even Yu Dafu and the crowd of teachers on the viewing platform were the same, feeling that Zhou Chu and Zhou Li's victory was a matter of course.
Except for Chu Shuangshuang and the two captains of the Hurricane Squad.
They had originally thought this would be a brilliant, evenly matched duel, but they hadn't expected the entire match to be completely devoid of waves.
From beginning to end, the rhythm of the match was constantly controlled by the two of them, Zhou Chu and Zhou Li.
One must know that the captain of this team was Shi Yu, a gold-medal instructor from the New Recruit Training Camp.
In the match, not only did he fail to display the abilities an instructor should have, but he instead appeared completely disorganized, with his mind solely set on sneaking the opponent's base.
To be honest, after facing opponents like Zhou Chu and Zhou Li, Shi Yu was also helpless.
In the Individual Tournament, Shi Yu had already experienced the strength of the two.
Facing two monsters, one could only say that he was powerless.
Next, the other match of the semifinals would be the Shigu Sun team versus the Daxia 5S Genius Squad.
This semi-final match could be described as back-and-forth, with constant reversals.
The match was even dragged into the late game, and they were still locked in a stalemate.
In fact, the key to victory depended on who made a mistake first, and which team would be the first to reveal a flaw.
Although Shigu Sun had the highest Soul Profession Quality in the team, he still could not save the entire group, and in the end, they lost to the well-coordinated 5S Squad.
"Fuck!" After losing the match, John cursed angrily, turned around, and left the Arena.
Coming to Shenxia University this time not only failed to gain any advantage, but he was even repeatedly suppressed; he truly regretted staying for this study abroad.
He had already decided to apply to return to his country.
Shigu Sun was the same; hitting a wall several times in a row had greatly extinguished his arrogant spirit, and he no longer had any other thoughts.
Furthermore, with reports constantly covering the rampant Calamity in Nihong Country triggering natural disasters, he also decided to apply for withdrawal and return to his country to join the ranks of those saving the nation.
After all, for a tiny country like Nihong Country, surrounded on all sides by the Disaster Sea, once the Calamity spreads, it is very likely to face the danger of national extinction.
As for Puchangyin, seeing that the two were leaving, he certainly had no face to stay any longer, and could only slink back to his own country.
As for the subsequent team competition final, it ended perfectly with the 5S Squad voluntarily forfeiting.
After all, during the College Entrance Exam, all five of them were wiped out by Zhou Chu, and now with the addition of Zhou Li, there was even less chance of winning.
Therefore, the best result was to voluntarily forfeit.
