Chapter 318

Even if the other party were Yan Zhen, it would be the same.

"So she really is a student of Yue Nishang. I have to say, isn't the frequency at which your Eastern Region Lord takes on students a bit high?" Upon receiving Yan Qian's reply, Yan Zhen couldn't help but click his tongue.

However, if she were a student of the Night Empress, then Lu Li and Yan Yuexin could be considered a well-matched pair.

Moreover, there had always been rumors that the Night Empress was the Magic Card Master in the Ancient Kingdom with the best chance of breaking through to the Supreme Realm in this generation. If the Night Empress truly succeeded in her breakthrough, then it might even be the Yan family climbing the social ladder.

No matter how strong Yan Qian and he were, they were only at the Undying Realm; the gap between them and the Supreme Realm was plain for all to see.

As for the reason, it was naturally because the other party was an original Magic Card creator.

An original Magic Card creator might not necessarily become a Supreme, but those who become Supremes are definitely original Magic Card creators!

If you knew that Lu Li was an original Magic Card creator, you might be even more excited than that girl Nishang.

Briefly despising Yan Zhen in his heart, Yan Qian's gaze swept toward the distance, where they were not the only ones who had noticed the interaction between Lu Li and Yan Yuexin.

……

"These two Magic Card Masters from the Ancient Kingdom don't seem to take our people seriously."

"Indeed. Having rejected Bei Bei Xingyu's invitation to team up, I don't believe they will be a match for our people in a one-on-one fight."

"One cannot say it like that. The fact that the other party could be selected as a Guardian Knight means their strength cannot be underestimated; they are likely comparable to the Guardian Knights of the Six Great Religions."

These people conversing were the Popes of the religions to which Yu Yu Xunqin and the others belonged.

Although they certainly supported their own people, they also understood that since Lu Li could be selected as Yan Yuexin's Guardian Knight, no matter how poor his strength was, he would definitely be on par with the Guardian Knights selected by the Six Great Religions.

No matter how displeased they were, they had to admit that the Ancient Kingdom was an empire with a scale comparable to the Holy See, and the Ancient Kingdom would certainly not be unable to find a Magic Card Master whose strength matched the younger generation of the Six Great Religions.

But, so what? This was not the Ancient Kingdom, but the Holy See, and no one had chosen to fight Lu Li one-on-one!

"With a lineup like this, even if they run into people from the Six Great Religions, it's not as if they don't have the strength to fight. Even if this Magic Card Master from the Ancient Kingdom is strong, the best result is probably a draw."

"No, if it were just him alone, there would indeed be a chance for a draw, but don't forget, they are currently in the Land of Buried Bones, and behind him is a Saintess candidate."

"As long as he dares to show even a hint of wanting to run, I'm afraid he'll be eliminated the next moment."

"Actually, I'm quite curious to see what the expressions on Yan Qian and Yan Zhen's faces will be if these two are eliminated."

"I believe we'll know soon enough." As they spoke, the group swept their gazes with profound meaning toward the location of the Flame Spirit Sect members.

They were all waiting to watch a good show. Of course, if they could see the Flame Spirit Sect members lose their composure, that would be even better.

……

"Alright, I won't waste any more Finish Finish Time with you." Without further delay, a Magic Card appeared in Lu Li's hand, which he then flicked out.

The next moment, the black Tyrant Dragon embedded with deep red crystals, Destruction Dragon Gandora, appeared on the battlefield.

Although it was just one dragon, the violent aura radiating from Destruction Dragon Gandora quickly occupied the entire space, colliding with the aura of the more than twenty 8-star Magic Card spirits summoned by Yu Yu Xunqin and the others; the final result was a stalemate, with neither side gaining the upper hand.

Noticing this, the expressions of Yu Yu Xunqin and the others couldn't help but Fallen Fallen Mode Fallen Mode Change slightly.

One Magic Card spirit going head-to-head against their twenty-plus Magic Card spirits and ending in a stalemate—even if it was just an aura confrontation, and even if the opponent was a Dragon-type Magic Card spirit—this was still a bit absurd.

"This is likely a 9-star Magic Card spirit," one of the Saint candidate backups in the temporarily formed team spoke up.

"It doesn't feel like the aura of a 9-star Magic Card spirit, just very close to it," another Saintess candidate backup also spoke: "I have seen 9-star Magic Card spirits before, and their aura is definitely more than this."

"The most likely possibility is that this dragon species has a very high quality, and with the added bonuses of being a dragon species, its aura is able to reach this level."

"You should all be aware that the individual quality of Dragon-type Magic Card spirits is very high; a standard Dragon-type Magic Card spirit wouldn't fall into a disadvantage even when fighting one against two."

"Indeed, Dragon-type Magic Card spirits are among the more troublesome Magic Card spirits."

"You all aren't scared, are you?" Although these Saint and Saintess candidate backups didn't say it explicitly, Yu Yu Xunqin could still see that the appearance of the Dragon-type Magic Card spirit had put some pressure on them.

After all, they were just a temporarily formed team, and everyone was not of one mind at all.

"Yu Yu Xunqin, you don't need to use reverse psychology on us." As another Saint candidate backup, Leng Congyun only glanced at her after hearing Yu Yu Xunqin's words, then stared solemnly at Destruction Dragon Gandora.

"Even if we wanted to leave now, I'm afraid the other party wouldn't let us go."

"Moreover, before we even started, I had already considered this point, after all, the other party is a Saintess candidate backup from the Ancient Kingdom, and the only one at that."

"Regardless, the Guardian Knight selected by the Ancient Kingdom will definitely not be lacking in strength, and may even be on par with the candidates selected by the Six Great Religions."

Hearing Leng Congyun's analysis, the others nodded as well. They might not have thought this deeply at first, but it was easy to understand once pointed out.

601. The Advantage is Mine!

"The Guardian Knights of the Six Great Religions all possess 9-star Magic Card spirits as trump cards. If the other party is truly on par with the Guardian Knights of the Six Great Religions, then they must also possess a 9-star Magic Card spirit."

Hearing Leng Congyun's analysis, everyone's expressions changed slightly, especially regarding the 9-star Magic Card spirit; that was indeed a rather large problem for them.

The subtle changes in everyone's expressions did not escape Leng Congyun's eyes, and his gaze remained very calm: "Even if the other party possesses a 9-star Magic Card spirit, it doesn't mean we will definitely fail."

"According to my past dealings with Kings who hold 9-star Magic Card spirits, even if they can summon 9-star card spirits, these are generally used as a final trump card."

"The strength of a 9-star Magic Card spirit is indeed very strong, but for the King realm, the consumption is still too great."

"However, I feel that the other party might do the opposite and summon a 9-star Magic Card spirit next."

"After all, even if the other party also summons a full set of 8-star Magic Card spirits, they can only summon at most four more Magic Card spirits."

"At the same level, I don't believe the other party's Magic Card spirit can fight one against five; even with the quality of a dragon species, it's not enough to achieve that."

"Therefore, if the other party wants to break the deadlock, the most likely possibility is to summon a 9-star Magic Card spirit!" Speaking of this, Leng Congyun felt more and more that his analysis was correct.

If it were him, he would also make such a choice.

"You mean he intends to summon a 9-star Magic Card spirit next to take us down in one go?" Hearing this, Yu Yu Xunqin couldn't help but interrupt Leng Congyun: "In other words, as long as we can survive the first wave of attacks, we can exhaust the other party to death?"

Twenty-plus 8-star Magic Card spirits fighting one 9-star dragon species does indeed have a chance of winning, but in that case, the final cost would still be a bit high.

If possible, they naturally hoped to preserve their Magic Card spirits as much as possible while eliminating Lu Li.

After all, there is a Finish Finish Time limit for reviving a Magic Card spirit after it is killed.

Being killed within the Burial Grounds means that the Magic Card Master will lose the combat power of that Magic Card spirit for a period of Finish Finish Time.

Choosing to consume or choosing to lose combat power—being in the Burial Grounds, I believe anyone would choose the latter.

It is precisely because of this that Yu Yu Xunqin said they could exhaust the other party to death.

Or rather, it's not exhausting the 9-star Magic Card spirit to death, but exhausting Lu Li, draining the other party's magic power.

As long as the magic power is insufficient to support the existence of the 9-star Magic Card spirit, then they have won.

"Correct," Leng Congyun nodded: "In fact, if I were in the other party's position, I might not choose to go head-to-head; it's more likely I would use the strength of the 9-star Magic Card spirit to fight a team battle and then take the opportunity to leave here."

"After all, the primary purpose of entering the Burial Grounds is for the trial inheritance. The other party must also have the same idea as us and won't waste too much Finish Finish Time or consume too much magic power at the very beginning."

"Therefore, as long as we survive the other party's first wave of attacks, then whether we continue to fight or temporarily withdraw, the initiative will have fallen into our hands."

"If your guess is correct, we could even split off a portion of our Magic Card spirits to hold back the 9-star Magic Card spirit the other party might summon, while the others go directly for that Saintess candidate backup from the Ancient Kingdom," Yu Yu Xunqin suggested: "As long as we trigger the mechanism, they will be eliminated."

"By then, our consumption will also be reduced accordingly."

"That is natural, but we must also guard against the other party summoning other Magic Card spirits to coordinate." Leng Congyun reminded them; as a Magic Card Master on par with the Guardian Knights of the Six Great Religions, Lu Li definitely still had many 8-star Magic Cards in his hand.

No matter how well he spoke, he couldn't ignore the other party's strength, and these were all just his guesses based on the scene.

"Even if they summon other Magic Card spirits to coordinate, so what?" Unfortunately, Yu Yu Xunqin didn't care much about this: "Don't forget, whether the other party actually has a 9-star Magic Card spirit is still just our guess."

"You just said it yourself, even if he summons a full set of Magic Card spirits next, a King can have at most five Magic Card summoning slots."

"We have nearly thirty Magic Card spirits here; even if we split half the number of Magic Card spirits to hold back the 9-star Magic Card spirit, and set aside eight Magic Card spirits to respond, we still have four Magic Card spirits that can directly attack the Magic Card Master himself."

"Even if the other party performs a Source Synchronization with that 9-star dragon species, a King realm can only exert 30% of the synchronized Magic Card spirit's combat power, so what if we split off two more Magic Card spirits to deal with it?"

"Don't forget, our goal from the beginning was to eliminate the other party." If she could teach the other party a lesson, Yu Yu Xunqin naturally wouldn't mind.

But unfortunately, there is a blessing in the Burial Grounds that resists fatal damage, so her idea could only fall through.

Hearing Yu Yu Xunqin's words, Leng Congyun and the others also fell silent; what she said made sense, and it had almost considered all situations.

Of course, there was one more situation, and that was that Lu Li indeed had 9-star Magic Cards, and more than one!

But if that were the case, Lu Li wouldn't have summoned the 8-star Destruction Dragon Gandora first, but would have started directly with a 9-star Magic Card spirit.

But such consumption would also increase exponentially; even with the magic power surplus of the King realm, this consumption would definitely affect subsequent actions.

Moreover, even if Lu Li summoned a second Magic Card spirit, they could still adopt a stalling strategy, splitting off one or two Magic Card spirits to forcefully kill the person himself.

It was just that by then, they might also have losses, but now they didn't have the option to just let it go, so they had to bite the bullet and go. Exchanging glances, everyone instantly understood each other's thoughts.

……

"Uh, another dragon species?" Seeing the oppressive figure of Destruction Dragon Gandora, Yan Yuexin's gaze couldn't help but become subtle, as if saying, are you really not a Magic Card Master from Dragon Valley?

Counting Destruction Dragon Gandora, the number of Dragon-type Magic Card spirits she had seen alone had already reached four!

Even a Magic Card Master from Dragon Valley isn't as absurd as you, hey.

"Forget it, think whatever you want," having been misunderstood so many times, Lu Li was too lazy to explain; he just had more dragon species Magic Cards in his hand, so why suspect he was a Magic Card Master from Dragon Valley?

If he were a Magic Card Master from Dragon Valley, he wouldn't have other non-dragon species Magic Card spirits in his hand.
