Chapter 969
The Wind Prince's target was not Su Xiao, because he had never thought about fighting Su Xiao to the death from beginning to end. He learned about the Law-Breaker's abilities from ancient records. He was clear that as long as he was eroded by Green Steel Shadow energy, he would basically be dead. That kind of energy would devour his brain.
The Wind Prince started to pull others in as soon as he appeared. This was not to kill Su Xiao together at all, but to reduce the number of contestants.
At first, Su Xiao didn't discover this, but when the Wind Prince attacked him with extremely pure water, he vaguely realized something was wrong. The Wind Prince attacked him with two drops of extremely pure water. It seemed that the rest of the extremely pure water was smashed by energy blades, but in reality, it was not. There were five drops of extremely pure water in the sand. The iron man was sold by the Wind Prince.
Discovering this, Su Xiao took the opportunity to kill the iron man. After that, Red Scorpion vaguely discovered something was wrong. From the angle she attacked Su Xiao, one could actually see this. She attacked Su Xiao while Su Xiao was blocking the Wind Prince. At that time, Red Scorpion couldn't confirm that the Wind Prince was wrong. Speaking out rashly would only cause this small group to fall apart.
The Wind Prince's wind cavalry spear was simply a god-like assist. After sensing that wind cavalry spear, Su Xiao immediately confirmed one point: the Wind Prince was wrong, because when that wind cavalry spear approached him, it emitted a subtle fluctuation. That fluctuation meant that this thing could explode.
This god-like assist caused Red Scorpion's Wild Scorpion Tail Sweep to hold back at the critical moment and not hit Su Xiao with full force. Not only that, this wind cavalry spear also caused Red Scorpion to completely lose combat ability. Red Scorpion said this sentence when forfeiting: "These two bastards."
Logically speaking, it should be "this bastard." This was originally a curse at Su Xiao, but Red Scorpion said "these two bastards." Who was the other "bastard"? It was self-evident.
Afterward, the Wind Prince began to bewitch the rock-man. The rock-man, whose IQ was not high, was his collaborator. Unfortunately, Pi Pang and Bank fought into a ball, which made the Wind Prince change his mind. He began to brew a big move.
Su Xiao was a bit unable to figure out why the Wind Prince sold his teammates at first, but thinking of the second-place reward, his thoughts became clear.
The Wind Prince was different from most contestants. He had a family, so he was not too eager for the Essence of the Reborn Dragon. The thing he truly craved was the High-Vibration Steel Mine.
From the very beginning, the Wind Prince's target was the High-Vibration Steel Mine, which was the reward for second place. So he needed a "collaborator." This "collaborator's" strength had to be strong enough, without a family or major forces behind them, and not too eager for High-Vibration Steel. And who was more suitable for this candidate?
Su Xiao thought of these factors, so he understood completely why the Wind Prince sold his teammates.
Ten-person melee tests not only combat power, but IQ is also important.
Boom!
The energy column between the Wind Prince's palms bombarded Pi Pang and Bank. The two were fighting fiercely at this moment.
"Damn!"
Pi Pang was shocked. He suddenly disappeared from the spot. I don't know what ability he used. Pi Pang slipped away, and the remaining Bank looked a bit bitter, being bombarded into a spiral ascent.
With a thud, Bank fell to the ground. The energy in the Wind Prince's hand aimed at it, preparing for the second shot. Bank twitched a few times and raised its number plate card, breaking it with a crack.
At the same time, Su Xiao stepped on the rock-man. The rock-man's skin surface was gray and white. The buff effects on the rock-man had long since dissipated, and it was subjected to a debuff effect.
"I sur..."
The long blade stabbed down, directly piercing the rock-man's head. The long blade flicked, and the rock-man's head was opened.
Being honest and loyal was fine, but don't play schemes if you are honest and loyal, especially when playing schemes among a group of old sinister guys. If you do that, you'll be sold and still help count the money.
The situation on the field had a shocking reversal. 5 minutes after the start of the battle, only two people remained on the field.
Pi Pang threw a beef jerky into his mouth. He threw the number plate card on the ground and stepped on it.
"Only two contestants remain on the field!"
Hake shouted, bloodshot eyes appearing in his excitement.
Su Xiao pulled the Boundary Breaking Line, and the Boundary Breaking Line retracted into the wire wheel. His relationship with the Wind Prince was not cooperation, but mutual utilization. There were no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. Right and wrong were things only children would care about.
"If we meet in the future, we might be life-and-death enemies."
The Wind Prince removed the energy ball in his hands and began to cough up blood. A moment later, he was bleeding from seven orifices, looking like a fierce ghost. This was the backlash of using the Wind King Roar. The Wind King Roar was his father's unique skill, and the Wind Prince used it very reluctantly. Now the injuries in his body were heavier than Su Xiao's before. Being able to stand was already not bad.
Su Xiao didn't speak, just carried his blade toward the Wind Prince. His purpose was the Essence of the Reborn Dragon. As for the High-Vibration Steel Mine, he had no use for that thing at all. He was about to return to Reincarnation Paradise and had no time to mine that thing. As for selling it, the risks involved were too high. It was more reliable to take the Essence of the Reborn Dragon and withdraw.
"Forget it. If I get slashed by you, I'm eight or nine out of ten dead. Going home to study elements is life."
The Wind Prince took out the number plate card and broke it with a crack. This sentence "going home to study elements" exposed his homebody personality without a doubt. With this personality of the Wind Prince, as long as he entered the Mage Tower, it would be normal not to come out for hundreds of years. Perhaps the two would never meet again in the future.
"I announce that the first place in this competition is..."
Before Hake finished speaking, a cyan metal wire wrapped around the front of the commentary stage. Hake's eyes widened.
"Cannot attack the commentator, hey hey hey, come here, help."
Hake's desire to survive was extremely strong. However, Su Xiao was not here to slash him.
With the pulling force of the Boundary Breaking Line, Su Xiao jumped onto the commentary stage.
"Essence."
Su Xiao reached out.
"Eee~"
Hake shrank his shoulders and retreated. This devil was not good at fighting; what he was best at was "hey hey hey" with girls of various races.
"This isn't good~"
Hake wanted to stabilize Su Xiao first. There was still an award ceremony later.
Su Xiao's eyes narrowed.
"Take it. This was originally your reward. You deserve it."
Hake handed over the Essence of the Reborn Dragon without any integrity. Su Xiao took the essence, and spatial energy surged. He was about to return to the first floor of the Demon Castle, which was a transit station. After obtaining the Game Winner Badge, he would return to Reincarnation Paradise.
Su Xiao walked away, leaving behind a confused audience, the Wind Prince, Hake, and the arena organizers.
"Why don't you give me that thing now? I'm in a bit of a hurry."
The Wind Prince was lifted by elements and floated onto the commentary stage. This super homebody was in a hurry to go home; he still had 154,760 elemental studies to complete.
"Eh?"
Hake's mouth opened wide. After hesitating for a moment, he handed the approval letter for the High-Vibration Steel Mine to the Wind Prince. The Wind Prince floated away slowly. Perhaps even his father couldn't have imagined that this super homebody son would return so soon.
Hake lay on the railing of the commentary stage, looking at Pi Pang with expectation. That look was: "Big brother, please, stay for the award ceremony. If you leave, there will be no one left."
Pi Pang's eyebrows twitched.
"Is there food?"
"A big meal!"
"Deal."
The Void Arena ended "happily" like this, but the first and second place positions on the podium were empty. The first place was the Law-Breaker full of blood, and the second place was the super homebody mage.
