Chapter 406

"But at least none of us died."

Some also felt relieved.

Although the smart wristband has protective magic, there are cases where it fails to trigger in time.

In past survival contests, there have been cases where contestants were killed because of this.

So they were all grateful to have survived Zhou Yi's overwhelming domination.

Of course, many knew this was still because Zhou Yi held back...

"230,000 points, first place."

Glancing at the point ranking on his smart wristband, Zhou Yi's eyes flickered slightly.

Solo champion, team champion, and now survival contest champion!

He had perfectly completed all the system-issued achievement tasks!

"I wonder what kind of reward the system will give this time."

Zhou Yi's heart was full of expectation.

But there are still many other contestants in the survival contest—he must eliminate all the rest to end it early.

Thus, after a brief moment of anticipation, Zhou Yi exited the Frost Titan state.

"Hmph."

Recovering his original 1.9-meter height, Zhou Yi grunted, then cast a holy light spell and slow healing on himself, finally feeling somewhat better.

"As my level increases, the side effects of the Titan God Body Secret Technique will diminish."

Compared to when he was level 19, the side effects after releasing the Titan God Body bloodline secret technique at his current level 23 are much reduced.

According to Zhou Yi's prediction, by level 30, this S+ bloodline secret technique should have no side effects left.

"Level 30 is coming soon."

Zhou Yi silently thought to himself.

Then he put aside his thoughts and mounted the Wind Wolf again, swiftly leaving the area.

Next, he needed to eliminate all remaining contestants in the survival contest.

The Emerald Forest was vast, over a thousand square kilometers—comparable to a small prefectural-level city.

Finding the remaining dozen or so contestants in such a vast area was like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Yet the presence of location data made this task considerably simpler.

But Zhou Yi did not immediately head toward the nearest contestant; instead, he raced toward the location marked for Jiang Churan on the map.

According to the map's location data, Cai Hua had already been eliminated—his dot had turned gray.

Jiang Churan's dot remained green, and she was still engaged in combat with Xia Lan and several other green dots.

So he needed to get there quickly.

After all, being eliminated meant losing half your points...

Under the Wind Wolf's astonishing speed, Zhou Yi soon found Jiang Churan.

At this moment, Jiang Churan seemed to have just finished fighting; her condition looked poor.

Her fair, rosy face was now pale, her fitted leather armor stained with blood and torn in several places.

Not far from her were Xia Lan and two others, their smart wristbands' protective magic activated, suffering heavy injuries.

"Zhou Yi!"

Seeing Zhou Yi appear in the distance, Xia Lan and the other three instantly turned pale.

The battle had been too intense—they had had no time to check their wristband rankings.

But now they didn't need to check.

Zhou Yi's presence here meant Wei He and Wang Xuan's allied team had surely been crushed...

"Big Brother Zhou Yi!"

Jiang Churan, however, was delighted, smiling brightly: "I knew Big Brother Zhou Yi wouldn't lose."

"Slow down."

Watching Jiang Churan, pale-faced yet smiling, stride toward him with long steps, Zhou Yi extended his right hand—and a brilliant holy light erupted.

"Holy Light."

"Slow Healing."

Under the healing of holy light and life energy, Jiang Churan's condition improved immediately.

"One against three, and you still defeated them all—your strength has clearly improved a lot lately."

Zhou Yi leapt down from the Wind Wolf and smiled at Jiang Churan.

Xia Lan, the elven-blooded archer, was undoubtedly among the top-tier in strength.

The two other teammates beside her—Zhou Yi knew them well; their strength ranked among the highest in the Magic Capital University.

Yet all three together had been defeated by Jiang Churan...

"Compared to Big Brother Zhou Yi, they're all too weak."

Jiang Churan giggled, hugging his arm affectionately.

During this time, she had trained daily with Zhou Yi in the practice room.

Although her level and four-dimensional stats hadn't increased, her combat awareness had become far sharper than before.

Only then could she defeat all three of Xia Lan's group.

Seeing Jiang Churan's adorable smile, Zhou Yi couldn't help but ruffle her hair, then said:

"Let's go—let's take care of the remaining contestants."

Zhou Yi pulled Jiang Churan onto the back of the Wind Wolf, Xiao Hui.

To eliminate all the remaining contestants in the shortest time possible, they naturally couldn't ride the Black Disaster Bai Yunhu, which was a notch slower.

"Xiao Lan, we're heading off first. Someone will come pick you up later."

With a wave of her hand, Jiang Churan and Zhou Yi swiftly vanished from Xia Lan and the others' sight, following the galloping figure of the Gale Wolf.

"That girl Xiaoran really does ditch her friends for a guy!"

Though Xia Lan was helpless, she had no other choice.

Now that the Defensive magic on their smart wristbands had been activated, They have no way to move freely, and could only wait for the official professionals in the Dungeon Secret Realm to come rescue them.

With the joint team of the nine schools crushed, what followed became far simpler.

At the Gale Wolf's terrifying speed, Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan darted through the Emerald Forest, swiftly eliminating the remaining contestants one after another.

"Brother Zhou Yi, this is the last contestant."

Four hours later, deep within the towering trees of the forest, Jiang Churan said to Zhou Yi.

Not far from the two of them was a contestant whose face wore a helpless expression, having activated the protective wristband.

He had voluntarily chosen to activate his wristband.

In fact, just now plenty of people had chosen to forfeit the moment they saw Zhou Yi, losing half their points.

"Hm? Already the last contestant?"

With a light tap on his smart wristband, a map projected before Zhou Yi's eyes.

On the vast virtual map, only two green dots remained at this point.

All the other dots had already turned grey.

After confirming only two people were left, Zhou Yi looked at the points ranking beside it:

【First Place: Zhou Yi, 246,516 points】

【Second Place: Jiang Churan, 41,203 points】

【Third Place: Wang Xuan, 16,201 points】

【...】

During these four hours of hunting down the remaining contestants, Zhou Yi's points had risen considerably once more, reaching a full 246,000!

And Jiang Churan likewise had over 40,000 points, claiming the second-place spot.

"I'm first, you're second — now our Suhang University is already number one in the survival match."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but grin broadly.

Buzz—
