Chapter 318

And Lu Li and Yan Yuexin, these two Magic Card Masters from outside the Holy See, are undoubtedly the explosive points among explosive points; if they can eliminate these two, they will definitely be able to attract the Pope's attention.

To be honest, sometimes the Pope's attention is more useful than becoming a Saint or Saintess.

After all, the number of people who can pass the trial and become Saints and Saintesses is limited; even if most of them become Saints and Saintesses and stimulate more talent, they will probably stop at the Sovereign level in the end.

Even if they can break through to the Immortal level, there is still the Undying level above the Immortal level; no one doesn't want to climb higher. It's a pity that breaking through to the Undying level is very difficult; in the huge Holy See, only the Popes of the six major religions are Undying Realm powerhouses.

They don't even have a probability of breaking through to the Immortal level, let alone breaking through to the Undying level.

But if they are noticed by the Pope, or even lucky enough to be accepted as students by the Pope, then the starting point is definitely Immortal. The teaching of a Supreme is more tempting than the inheritance trial of the Bone Burial Ground.

Even if things go wrong, they still have a chance to achieve the Undying level, become one of the six major Popes, or open up a seventh major religion.

By that time, they would really be famous and wealthy.

Therefore, even without Yu Xunqin's proposal, a second Yu Xunqin would still appear; the difference was just the reason.

"You, become the whetstone for me to perform in front of the Pope." With such a thought flashing in her mind, Yu Xunqin directly gave instructions to her guardian knight.

Under Yu Xunqin's instruction, the knight guarding her side showed a trace of cruel smile and directly summoned five Magic Card Spirits; the space where the two were located instantly became crowded.

The strength of all Magic Card Spirits had reached the eight-star level, and even the strongest Magic Card Spirit was of perfect quality, reaching the limit that ordinary Magic Card Spirits could reach.

Since they intended to attack these two from the beginning, he wouldn't hold back, especially since he wasn't the only one here, and there were four other guardian knights whose strength was similar to his.

This wave could be described as having the advantage; how could he lose?

He wanted to beat Lu Li fiercely to let the other party understand that this was not the Ancient Kingdom, but the Holy See.

Since you came to the Holy See, no matter what your status in the Ancient Kingdom is, you must become our stumbling block.

Seeing this, the other four guardian knights also summoned their Magic Card Spirits under the instructions of their respective Saint and Saintess candidates.

Although they belonged to different religions and there were gaps in strength, the Magic Card Spirits summoned by the remaining four guardian knights were all eight-star level, which was the limit that a regular King could touch.

Clearly, even if they didn't belong to the six major Holy Sees, being able to become the guardian knight of their respective religion's Saint and Saintess candidates meant their strength would absolutely not be bad.

At the very least, the strength of these guardian knights, even if placed in the Heavenly Mansion, except for Xu Zhiyun and Si Xuanang who could steadily suppress these people, even people like Feng Jingtian and Zuo Yaodong were on par with the other party.

"Twenty-five eight-star Magic Card Spirits, and there is no lack of perfect quality eight-star Magic Card Spirits; even if facing the Saint and Saintess candidates of the six major Holy Sees, if they encounter them alone, the other party absolutely cannot steadily eat us."

"Don't underestimate our Holy See's Magic Card Masters!" After summoning the Magic Card Spirits, Yu Xunqin and the others felt even more confident; even if they encountered nine-star Magic Card Spirits, their team could fight a wave now.

It could be seen that these people's thoughts were all to eliminate Lu Li and Yan Yuexin in one go, and they were very confident, which was why they summoned all their Magic Card Spirits at once.

Summoning Magic Card Spirits at full capacity, and each one was eight-star level, the magic power consumed was quite large.

If they couldn't quickly eliminate Lu Li and Yan Yuexin, it would affect their subsequent inheritance trial.

But, was this possible? This was obviously impossible; if they were really counter-killed by Lu Li, they wouldn't have the face to continue participating in the inheritance trial.

"I feel like we are the bad guys?" Hearing Yu Xunqin's words, Yan Yuexin was dumbfounded.

Clearly, you were the ones who came to the door, clearly they were the victims, but how did it become as if they were the bad guys? This was too absurd.

"Uh, maybe this is the Holy See's characteristic," Lu Li touched his nose, also feeling a bit confused by Yu Xunqin's statement.

But thinking about it, it seemed that the development of religion in the previous life was about the same, so Lu Li was relieved. It seems that some things, even if they are not in the same world, have commonalities after development.

"But only eight-star Magic Card Spirits?" The only thing that made Lu Li not very satisfied was that the Magic Card Spirits summoned by Yu Xunqin and others only reached eight-star perfect at the strongest, and there were no nine-star Magic Card Spirits.

Although Yu Xunqin and others were very confident in their team, in Lu Li's view, having this level of strength and daring to look for trouble was a bit brave.

He thought there would at least be nine-star Magic Card Spirits as a base for Yu Xunqin and the others to be so confident.

As for whether these people held back, judging from their performance of summoning eight-star Magic Card Spirits at full capacity, Lu Li didn't think there was such

"If that's the case, the test results might not be as good as imagined." But thinking about it, these people were not the guardian knights of the six major religions; being able to summon a full set of eight-star Magic Card spirits could already be considered outstanding.

"Then it's better to save it and test it later." In the end, considering that these people's strength was only so much, using them for testing was equivalent to using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, so Lu Li changed his subsequent response.

"Isn't it bad that the strength is a bit poor? You are really picky." Hearing Lu Li's muttering, Yan Yuexin couldn't help but roll her eyes.

599. I have a bold guess

"Don't say that, I actually quite like listening to Lu Li talk," outside the secluded valley, Yan Qian couldn't help but laugh.

Combining the context, anyone with a discerning eye could hear that Lu Li's remark about the "Holy See's characteristics" was not praising the Holy See at all.

Nonsense, a Magic Card master from the Ancient Kingdom praising the Holy See—that would be the abnormal behavior.

However, compared to Yan Qian, the expressions of the others in the secluded valley were very colorful, especially the various Popes belonging to the Holy See.

Although these Popes would not be broken by Lu Li's words, they still couldn't help but feel an urge to beat him up.

Good guy, strength aside, is this taunt skill really maxed out?

"I say, aren't the two of them acting too leisurely?" Among the Flame Spirit Sect members, although Ying Wan also felt like she was caught in the crossfire, seeing the casual interaction between Lu Li and Yan Yuexin, Ying Wan still couldn't help but worry a little.

Although the Saint and Saintess candidates and guardian knights acting were not from the six major religions and their individual strength was a bit lower, they had teamed up now, making up for their individual flaws, and the threat was significantly increased.

Twenty-five eight-star Magic Card spirits—this lineup was a sure kill for the vast majority of Kings.

"Regarding this point, you can rest assured," the one who responded to Ying Wan was Lan Xiatong: "This lineup indeed looks full of threat, but for Lu Li, it's only slightly troublesome."

During the Four Great Academies Exchange Tournament, the scene where WarGreymon cleared the field with two Gaia Force shots left a deep impression on Lan Xiatong even now.

Although it was charged up and caught them off guard, and the Magic Card spirits cleared at that time were of mixed strength, the destructive power of Gaia Force was still guaranteed.

As long as Lu Li's other Magic Card spirits could buy a suitable time difference for WarGreymon, WarGreymon indeed had the opportunity to wipe out the opposing team in one wave.

And Lilithmon, who had also appeared in the Four Great Academies Exchange Tournament, possessed such crowd control ability; her "Phantom Pain" had affected even them, the Undying Realm experts, through the screen.

Not to mention, Lan Xiatong also knew that Lu Li still had two Dragon-type Magic Card spirits with strength not inferior to WarGreymon.

Therefore, in Lan Xiatong's view, although Yu Xunqin and the others summoned many Magic Card spirits, they had none that could contend with nine-star Magic Card spirits like WarGreymon or Lilithmon; for Lu Li, it was just a bit more troublesome.

This wave by Yu Xunqin and the others was completely lifting a rock only to drop it on their own feet—self-inflicted.

"Only slightly troublesome? It seems you really have confidence in Lu Li." Hearing the subtext in Lan Xiatong's words, Ying Wan revealed a thoughtful expression.

She didn't know much about Lan Xiatong, but she knew that at their level, there was no need to lie.

"What is the relationship between Yuexin and Lu Li?" Compared to Ying Wan, Yan Zhen's focus was clearly a bit off.

From the very beginning, he felt that the interaction between Lu Li and Yan Yuexin was a bit intimate. If one were to say they were lovers, it didn't look like it, but if one were to say they were just ordinary friends, he wouldn't believe it even if he died.

It's a pity that Lu Li was from the Ancient Kingdom, and Yan Yuexin had also grown up in the Ancient Kingdom since she was a child; besides asking Yan Qian and the others, he had no way to get more information.

"They haven't reached the stage of lovers yet, and Yuexin herself might be a bit slow in this regard, but one can still see that she holds a lot of affection for Lu Li." The one who responded was Yan Qinyun. As Yan Yuexin's mother, she knew what her daughter was thinking just by seeing her wag her tail slightly.

"To be honest, I actually quite hope Yuexin and Lu Li can make it; this is also a good thing for both of them." Taking over Yan Qinyun's discovery, Yan Tianlu also spoke: "It's just that if that's the case, Yuexin might spend more time in the Eastern Region in the future."

Speaking of this, Yan Tianlu couldn't help but feel depressed.

He hoped his daughter would have a good home, and Lu Li was indeed a good choice, but the problem was that the Eastern Region and the Southern Region belonged to two different great regions, and the journey between them would take a lot of time.

Although they could use teleportation vouchers, teleportation vouchers were also one-time consumables, generally only used in emergencies.

If they used teleportation vouchers every time they went home for no reason, even with the Yan family's great wealth, they wouldn't be that corrupt.

"The Eastern Region? I thought Lu Li was from your Southern Region," hearing Yan Tianlu's words, Yan Zhen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Even if it's the Eastern Region, it still takes less time than coming to the Holy See from the Ancient Kingdom, and it's also more convenient."

"Uh!" Yan Tianlu's face stiffened. Noticing the smile on Yan Qinyun's face, he couldn't help but laugh awkwardly.

This father-in-law of his really held a grudge; didn't he just abduct his granddaughter to the Ancient Kingdom? So much time had passed, and even Yan Yuexin had grown up so much, yet he still remembered what happened back then.

"But it seems that both of you are very satisfied with Lu Li. I am curious what kind of status Lu Li has in the Ancient Kingdom's Eastern Region." After teasing Yan Tianlu a little, Yan Zhen stopped while he was ahead, but he was indeed interested in Lu Li's background.

Not only Yan Zhen, but Ying Wan also showed interest on her face. Especially since Lan Xiatong had already revealed her confidence in Lu Li just now.

It wasn't a question of social standing; with Yan Yuexin's conditions, there really weren't many people in the Ancient Kingdom who could match her, after all, she was the little princess of the Yan family.

Not to mention, far outside the Holy See, she also had the background of Yan Zhen, the Pope of the Flame Spirit Sect.

Therefore, if Yan Yuexin were to really end up with someone, the greatest possibility would be for the other party to marry into the Yan family.

And marrying into the Yan family could be said to be a step up to the sky. Yan Zhen believed that no Magic Card master could refuse such a temptation.

But judging from Yan Tianlu's statement just now, it seemed that things were not as he had thought.

If Yan Yuexin and Lu Li really ended up together, it was highly likely that the other party would settle in the Eastern Region.

Guessing from this, Lu Li's background in the Eastern Region was probably not ordinary, at the very least not much worse than the Yan family, or rather, Yan Tianlu. Because the Yan family's status today was built by Yan Qian.

Thinking of this, Yan Zhen couldn't help but have a bold guess in his heart.

600. Field-clearing dragon, come out and work

In the entire Ancient Kingdom, there were not many people who could compare to Yan Qian in status, and if the scope was narrowed to the Eastern Region, then the most suitable candidate was naturally only one person.

And in front of Bei Xingyu and Qu Zhixuan, a nine-tailed fox still stood, exactly the same as Daji, with no difference.

Although there was a suitable candidate, Yan Zhen still couldn't understand the relationship between the Night Queen and Lu Li.

It couldn't be that Lu Li was the Night Queen's student, right? After all, not much time had passed since the Night Queen took in Meng Ningdie.

Regarding that incident back then, because of Yan Qinyun, Yan Zhen had heard of it, but he only knew that the Night Queen had taken a student and some unpleasant things happened along the way—that was all.

As for the rest, Yan Zhen didn't know; after all, the distance between the Holy See and the Ancient Kingdom was too far, and he hadn't specifically collected information in that regard.

"No need to guess, it's just as you think." Yan Qian glanced at Yan Zhen and confirmed Yan Zhen's guess: "Lu Li is the new student taken in by that girl Nichang."

However, Yan Qian did not provide further explanation; after all, this involved an original Magic Card creator, and the fewer people who knew, the better, naturally.
