Chapter 189
If it were in the past, they wouldn't ignore this point, but this trip was a competition between the four major academies, and their attention was more on whether their own students could achieve final victory, so they subconsciously ignored this point.
"This woman is really troublesome!" Hearing Lan Lan Lan Xiatong's words, Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan couldn't help but mutter in his heart. If there was anyone among the three that Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan was most unwilling to face, it was Lan Lan Lan Xiatong, the You Palace head of the Southern Territory. After all, a woman's intuition was sometimes really unreasonable.
"I am naturally very clear about Lu Li's situation. After all, he is a student of our Heavenly Mansion," on the surface, Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan waved his hand: "Besides, if you have no impression of Lu Li's magic cards, then you have no impression. Do you still expect me to tell you one, two, three, four, five?"
"Don't forget, we are currently in a state of competition. Why don't you reveal the information of the strongest person in your You Palace first?" Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan directly took an attitude of not fearing boiling water even if it was dead. Anyway, he would absolutely not reveal the information that Lu Li was an original magic card creator.
As long as these people didn't see the vision caused by Lu Li creating magic cards for a day, then there would always be a way to muddle through.
You Lan Lan Lan Xiatong recognize quite a few magic cards, but most of them are within the scope of the Ancient Kingdom and the Church. What if it's outside the Ancient Kingdom and the Church?
Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan didn't believe that Lan Lan Lan Xiatong could recognize all the magic cards of the Magic Card Civilization. Let alone Lan Lan Lan Xiatong, even the four major territory lords and the two hall masters of the Central Court, Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan didn't think they could do this.
Of course, there were exceptions, that was the Supreme. After all, the Supreme was not only stronger than the Immortal realm, but his vision and cognition were also higher than the Immortal realm.
But more importantly, the relationship between the Night Queen and the Supreme was relatively close. Perhaps it could be said that the Night Queen would mention Lu Li's situation to the Supreme. After all, the Supreme was also an original magic card creator, so he naturally knew the content of this.
Seeing Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan's performance, whether it was Lan Lan Lan Xiatong, Kou Shan, or Mu Zhan, their eyebrows couldn't help but jump wildly. This old man's personality was really bad.
But what the other party said was also correct. After all, they were in a competition. If it were them, they wouldn't reveal the information of their own participants either.
It was just that a few people still kept an eye out. Lu Li's performance was indeed a bit unusual.
"~Alright, the number of magic cards possessed in the Magic Card Civilization is so large, even the Magic Card Encyclopedia produced by our Ancient Kingdom only records the magic cards known to our Ancient Kingdom," in the end, it was Changsun Changsun Changsun Xuanjing who spoke to stop this topic: "Perhaps, what Lu Li created are magic cards outside the Ancient Kingdom, or perhaps they are ancient magic cards dug out from some ruins and hidden."
To be honest, Changsun Changsun Changsun Xuanjing didn't know the specific reason, but involving both the Night Queen and the Supreme, she had to treat it cautiously.
And in the heart of this Star Hall Master of the Central Court, there was also a guess of her own, that was, Lu Li was extremely likely to be an original magic card creator! This point also more powerfully verified the Supreme's move!
Thinking of this, even Changsun Changsun Changsun Xuanjing couldn't help but become excited in her heart, but on the surface, she had to pretend to be as if nothing had happened. After all, an original magic card creator, the involvement here was too great.
……
"Master, the next teleportation will encounter enemies again." Before a space teleportation node, Glorious reminded.
"Then just deal with it as before." Regarding this, Lu Li didn't have too many thoughts.
Tossing and turning and teleporting so many times, Lu Li had also encountered quite a few participants from the other three major academies during this period, but these participants didn't even have Finish Finish Time to speak before they were directly taken away by his set of preemptive attacks.
The next moment, the two passed through the space node, and a bright red hair reflected in the eyes of Lu Li and Glorious.
359. Farewell! See you!
"It's you?" That iconic red hair was simply too dazzling, coupled with the equally bright red eyes. Lu Li didn't even need to see the face of the contestant appearing before him to know that the person he had encountered this Finish Finish Time was Yan Yuexin: "It seems we are quite fated."
Of course, what he cared about more was the other party's title of "Red Lotus Saintess." He didn't know if this girl had any self-destructing Magic Card spirits on her.
However, looking closely, Lu Li found that Yan Yuexin was indeed very similar to the Red Lotus Saintess in his memory. If she changed her hair color and eye color, Lu Li couldn't help but wonder if Joan of Arc had appeared.
"It's actually you!" Like Lu Li, seeing the two people who suddenly appeared before her, Yan Yuexin was also subconsciously startled, especially when she noticed Glorious beside Lu Li. She couldn't help but recall her encounter in the Endless Sea.
Although Glorious hadn't "darkened" yet, this aircraft carrier ship-girl had left quite a few shadows in Yan Yuexin's heart.
"I didn't expect Lu Li to run into Yuexin," Xia Xia Lantong couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, whispering in her heart: "Although it's a bit unexpected, with Yuexin's strength, she should be able to win this battle!"
Although Lu Li's performance in the maze was indeed impressive, Yan Yuexin wasn't bad either, not to mention that the other party had a nine-star Magic Card successfully crafted some Finish Finish Time ago. If Lu Li didn't possess Magic Cards of equal strength, he really wouldn't be Yan Yuexin's opponent.
Yan Yuexin was a direct descendant of the South Region Lord; her status and strength were not something an ordinary Magic Card master could compare to. However, just as this thought of Xia Xia Lantong emerged, Yan Yuexin made a move that surprised everyone.
"Farewell!" As the words fell, Yan Yuexin plunged into the spatial node behind her and teleported away. She had just teleported over through this spatial node.
"What's the situation!" Seeing Yan Yuexin run away without a word, Lu Li was puzzled, and then couldn't help but look at Glorious, revealing a sudden realization: "I was wondering, I'm afraid it's because the impression you left on her last Finish Finish Time was too deep."
Other than this, Lu Li really couldn't think of any reason that would make Yan Yuexin run away immediately without saying another word.
"Commander, speaking ill of a lady is not behavior a gentleman should have!" Hearing Lu Li's words, a trace of unnatural blush flashed across Glorious's face, because what the other party said seemed very likely to be true.
However, this also made Glorious recall her "embarrassing" side from back then. Even with her gentle temperament, she couldn't help but feel her face burning.
"But I'm not a gentleman either." Shrugging his shoulders, Lu Li didn't continue to tease her after seeing the blush spreading on Glorious's face, nor did he have any intention of chasing after Yan Yuexin. Instead, he continued to set off toward the entrance of the third level of the maze under Glorious's guidance.
"The most important thing now is to find the entrance to the third level. It's not wise to waste too much Finish Finish Time here with the other party." After teleporting away through several spatial nodes, Yan Yuexin stopped in her tracks when she saw no sign of Lu Li and Glorious following her.
Although she was confident in her strength, having witnessed Glorious easily slaughter the Kraken in the Endless Sea, Yan Yuexin didn't intend to start a war with Lu Li here. The situation on the second level of the maze was different from the first.
Moreover, the condition for winning the Academy Battle was to see who could bring the mission item from the third level out of the maze. She really didn't need to fight Lu Li here.
"Yes! This is just a strategic retreat!" Muttering to herself, Yan Yuexin found a reason for her actions and then plunged into another spatial node.
Strategic retreat, my foot!
Inside the ruins, hearing Yan Yuexin's self-muttering, everyone's expressions couldn't help but become subtle.
Especially the contestants from the South Region's You Palace, who couldn't help but suspect whether their Red Lotus Saintess had been "dropped." It was really because Yan Yuexin's performance just now was very different from their usual impression of the girl.
As for Lan Lan Lan Xiatong, she was also almost driven to jump by Yan Yuexin's actions. It was a pity that she had just been thinking that the other party could eliminate Lu Li, but she didn't expect Yan Yuexin not to even fight and run away immediately.
Didn't this amount to admitting that she wasn't Lu Li's opponent? Even with Lan Lan Lan Xiatong's years of experience, she was so angry that she couldn't help but take a few deep breaths to calm down.
Associating it with their performance when they met, Lan Lan Lan Xiatong became suspicious. Had Yan Yuexin and Lu Li met before they left? Did Yan Yuexin even know Lu Li's strength and know that she couldn't securely take down the other party, which was why she chose to leave?
If that were really the case, wouldn't that mean Lu Li also possessed a nine-star Magic Card?
One had to know that Yan Yuexin had successfully crafted a nine-star Magic Card before the start of the four major academy competitions. If it weren't for the dual buffs of being the South Region Lord's great-granddaughter and a candidate for the Flame Spirit Sect's Saintess, it wouldn't be certain that someone else could do this!
Meng Meng Meng Ningdie, who had the support of the Night Empress back then, was only so-so. And in the entire You Palace, only she knew this, and she hadn't made it public, all to give the other three major academies a little surprise and shock.
Other than this, Lan Lan Lan Xiatong really couldn't think of a more reasonable explanation. After all, based on her understanding of Yan Yuexin and her performance in the Academy Battle, the girl didn't seem like the type to flee without a fight.
Thinking of this, even this You Palace head couldn't help but gasp. No wonder she always felt that Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan had an inexplicable trust in Lu Li. So this was the biggest bomb!
Thinking of this, Xia Xia Lantong couldn't help but look at Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan. This guy was hiding deep enough.
"Yo! This Red Lotus Saintess of your You Palace has quite a personality." Unfortunately, one sentence from Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan directly broke Lan Lan Lan Xiatong's defense.
If it weren't for the fact that the current situation wasn't appropriate, Lan Lan Lan Xiatong wouldn't mind throwing a barrage of Magic Cards at Wen Wen Wen Xiuyuan's face.
"I say, is Junior Lu Li that scary?" Also seeing this scene, Ou Ou Hanxiang was puzzled. She still knew too little about Lu Li.
But no matter what, it shouldn't be to the point of running away as soon as they met, right? Could the intelligence she obtained about Yan Yuexin back then be fake?
"Uh, how should I put it?" Looking at the puzzled Ou Ou Hanxiang, the expressions of Feng Feng Jingtian and the others became very subtle: "If you really want to say it, Lu Li is quite scary."
As they spoke, the few of them briefly recounted several major events Lu Li had caused after enrolling.
"Holy crap!" Even with Ou Ou Hanxiang's temperament, she couldn't help but burst out a profanity. Is this something a freshman can do?
For this exchange tournament of the four major academies, she and Dai Dai Lingyang had been ignoring the outside world during this period, focusing only on seclusion, so they didn't know that Lu Li had caused so many major events.
Not only Ou Ou Hanxiang, but the mentors of the other three major academies standing not far away, as well as the eliminated contestants, were also dumbfounded.
Good grief, advancing to the King realm in half a year was already outrageous enough, but it turned out that in this half year, Lu Li had also caused so many major events.
At this moment, the contestants from the other three major academies were slightly glad that Lu Li wasn't their student; otherwise, wouldn't their academy have to experience a wave of chaos?
But soon, everyone's expressions became very subtle, because Yan Yuexin had encountered another contestant again, and the other party was the strongest in the North Frontier, Ku Ku Zimo!
This Red Lotus Saintess's luck was truly subtle.
360. Third level of the maze: Special card
"This Finish Finish Time it's a contestant from the You Palace? I have some impression of you. Not only are you the great-granddaughter of the South Region Lord, but also a candidate for the Flame Spirit Sect's Saintess. I just don't know how your strength is." Ku Ku Zimo looked at Yan Yuexin before him, his cold expression unchanged. The Ice Snow Giant Python behind him had already emitted a chilling cold, freezing this space.
Clearly, Ku Ku Zimo didn't intend to let Yan Yuexin go, and even directly cut off the other party's retreat.
"It seems this battle is unavoidable." Having also understood Ku Ku Zimo's intelligence, Yan Yuexin didn't hesitate and raised her hand to throw out the Magic Card in her hand.
The next moment, the frozen space suddenly became warm, changing from an ice and snow world to a holy land of blazing sun in just a few seconds.
The neighing of a unicorn came from near and far, and then a holy knight riding a unicorn came from the flames, holding a long spear emitting ultra-high-temperature blue flames aimed at the Ice Snow Giant Python.
Hair as smooth as the sea, a beautiful face with a hint of heroism, and an explosive golden figure, plus the momentum that filled the entire space and was completely no weaker than the Ice Snow Giant Python, all indicated that this holy knight's strength was definitely not ordinary.
Holy Beast Knight Angelica! This was the nine-star rare-level Magic Card spirit that Yan Yuexin had successfully crafted before the Academy Battle!
There was no need to say anything more. The momentum of the two nine-star Magic Card spirits just collided slightly, and they fought each other. The entire space was filled with exploding ice crystals and burning flame flowers.
Seeing this scene, those who had previously doubted Yan Yuexin's strength shut their mouths, but this also made them even more puzzled.
That is, since you also possess a nine-star Magic Card and can fight back and forth with Ku Ku Zimo, why did you run away without saying a word when you just ran into Lu Li, hey!
Unfortunately, Yan Yuexin didn't know the thoughts of these people. Her attention was now focused on the battle with Ku Ku Zimo. As Finish Finish Time passed, the girl's expression became increasingly cautious.
Although she had the halo of multiple identities, Ku Ku Zimo also had the cultivation of the North Frontier, and the other party's talent was only second to her own, and he even had one more year than her, further narrowing the gap.
"Indeed a good opponent, but you should still be eliminated." Ku Ku Zimo suddenly spoke, and a third momentum not inferior to the two suddenly appeared on the battlefield. The Ice Emperor Scorpion suddenly joined the battlefield, and the Holy Beast Knight Angelica, who was evenly matched with the Ice Snow Giant Python, became stretched.
"Dual nine-star Magic Cards are simply too unsolvable." Seeing this scene, Ou Ou Hanxiang and Xu Xu Xu Zhiyun had a strong sense of déjà vu. After all, they had just been eliminated by Ku Ku Zimo in this way.
Unless Yan Yuexin possessed a second nine-star Magic Card, her ending wouldn't be much better.
Unfortunately, even if Yan Yuexin had this dual-identity buff, crafting one nine-star Magic Card was already her limit. Even if she summoned other Magic Card spirits to join the battlefield, she was still swept away and eliminated by the combination of the Ice Snow Giant Python and the Ice Emperor Scorpion.
"I didn't expect to be eliminated after all, sigh." The maze marker was triggered, and Yan Yuexin was teleported back to the ruins. Recalling the scene just now, her heart was full of unwillingness.
If she were in the same batch as Ku Ku Zimo, perhaps the result of this battle would be uncertain.
But soon, Yan Yuexin saw many people looking at her with strange eyes, and coupled with the light screen playing the battle situation in real-Finish Finish Time, Yan Yuexin understood instantly.
