Chapter 350: Advancing to the Grand Finals (Second update, requesting everything)

For a multi-headed Demon Pet like the six-headed snake, the more heads it loses, the lower its combat power becomes; this can be felt from the six-headed snake's aura.

With every snake head lost, the six-headed snake's aura slips a notch; although the main head's abilities are stronger, the current six-headed snake can probably only exert half the strength of its prime, which is almost equivalent to dropping from Leader rank to Elite rank.

Most importantly, while the six-headed snake's main head is strong and its hardness far exceeds the other heads, it shares a fatal flaw with the other heads: other than Energy Impact, it has no other long-range attack methods.

Aixi did not close in, instead beginning to run around the six-headed snake.

Suddenly, Aixi opened its large mouth, and a Wind Blade a zhang long shot out, spinning rapidly toward the six-headed snake.

The six-headed snake hurriedly moved its massive serpentine body, and the golden main head sprayed a golden light beam as thick as a water barrel, which instantly collided with the Wind Blade.

Squeak, squeak—clatter—

The Wind Blade emitted a harsh sound, as if it had sliced into a block of iron, then immediately shattered and disappeared; the golden light beam continued forward, but because Aixi was in a high-speed movement state, and it took time to crush the Wind Blade, the golden light beam ultimately missed its mark.

At this moment, Aixi shifted to the other side and launched a long-range offensive once more; countless golden light spots gathered crazily, spraying out a Destruction Beam as thick as a water barrel.

This time, the six-headed snake did not spray a golden light beam; after all, the golden light beam was not Dragon Breath and required a certain "cooldown" time, even if this "cooldown" time was less than half a minute.

In this situation, the six-headed snake's golden main head condensed golden light spots, which adhered to its massive body surface, causing its entire body to become brilliant with golden light and greatly increasing its defensive power.

The next moment, the Destruction Beam hit the six-headed snake; even though the six-headed snake's defensive power had increased significantly, it still sustained some injuries from taking the Destruction Beam head-on.

Under Shen Haofei's increasingly ugly expression, a green light flashed on Aixi's body surface again, and a fourth layer of Wind Cloak attached itself to Aixi's body; its speed became even faster.

It was not that Shen Haofei had not thought of a solution, but Li Zhangsheng's tactics were too shameless—either setting off smoke bombs or letting Aixi kite from afar, dragging out the time while whittling down the six-headed snake's stamina.

The six-headed snake's long-range was not good, but if it took the initiative to pursue Aixi, it wouldn't even know how it died, because except for the ground within a few meters of the six-headed snake, the rest of the ground was almost completely flat, allowing Aixi's speed to be utilized to the extreme.

But if it did not take the initiative to attack, the six-headed snake would very likely be worn down to death by Aixi; this was an almost unsolvable situation.

Let the six-headed snake destroy the arena? With only one main head left, the six-headed snake would likely be finished off by Aixi in minutes.

"If only the six-headed snake had a few more long-range skills!" Shen Haofei frowned tightly; if the six-headed snake's long-range offensive were powerful, it wouldn't have ended up in such an awkward situation.

"Continue using long-range offensives to wear it down to death!!" For the sake of safety, Li Zhangsheng continued to persist with the Wind Kite Tactics; this was also the safest tactic at present, otherwise, if Aixi were to pounce, its speed would inevitably be affected by the destroyed ground near the six-headed snake, and the excellent situation could potentially be ruined.

Aixi continued to run, its long-term training allowing it to maintain abundant stamina; at least in the short term, its stamina would not be affected.

As soon as its few long-range skills finished their "cooldown," it would continue to launch attacks, constantly adding new wounds to the six-headed snake.

The six-headed snake's powerful recovery speed was temporarily unable to keep up with the speed at which it was being injured, which was also the main reason Li Zhangsheng adopted the Wind Kite Tactics; he wanted to slowly wear the six-headed snake to death.

The situation on the field continued, and the atmosphere among the Tiandu Academy group grew increasingly silent; they watched the field nervously, anxious in their hearts, yet unable to help in the slightest.

Li Zhangsheng was too steady, never revealing any openings, accumulating his advantages bit by bit, and not giving Shen Haofei a single chance to turn the tables.

As the wounds on the six-headed snake's body increased, Shen Haofei finally could not take it anymore; if this continued, he feared he would lose even his final chance.

Rather than that, it would be better to take a risk; perhaps a possibility of a comeback would appear.

Under Shen Haofei's command, the six-headed snake finally rushed out of the "cage," charging toward Aixi at its fastest speed.

Unfortunately, Li Zhangsheng maintained his tactical policy throughout, directing Aixi to pull away and continue harassing it.

The next moment, a Wind Blade shot out once again; this time, the six-headed snake did not defend, letting the Wind Blade hit it, and taking the opportunity to close the distance with Aixi.

However, although its speed was fast, Aixi's speed was faster; it seemed to transform into a bolt of lightning, sprinting wildly across the field, and no matter how desperately the six-headed snake tried, it simply could not touch Aixi.

Suddenly, the six-headed snake stopped, standing in place and panting heavily, revealing an extremely weak appearance.

Li Zhangsheng resisted the temptation and continued with his previous tactical policy.

Soon, under Shen Haofei's despairing gaze, the fifth layer of Wind Cloak appeared, causing Aixi's speed to finally reach its peak.

Boom—

Not long after, the six-headed snake finally could not hold on, falling heavily to the ground and never getting back up.

In the end, the six-headed snake still did not escape the fate of being worn to death by Aixi!

"The winner of this Finals is—Yuanling Academy! Let us congratulate Yuanling Academy for successfully advancing to the Grand Finals!"

After confirming that the six-headed snake was unable to fight again, the head referee announced the final result of the match.

Clatter, clatter, clatter—

The audience's fanatical cheers erupted; for them, this was absolutely a match worth remembering!

Li Zhangsheng turned the tide, and as a first-year Third-Rank Student, he single-handedly fought through all four grade tiers of Tiandu Academy, and even defeated two Fourth-Rank Students across ranks!

The Academy Exchange Tournament has a history of over a hundred years, but such an exaggerated battle record is absolutely unique and will surely add a brilliant stroke to the history of the Academy Exchange Tournament!

"Wow, we won, we won!"

"The Grand Finals, here we come again!"

"After three years, our Yuanling Academy has reclaimed the position that originally belonged to us!"

In the Yuanling Academy rest area, Vice Principal Xu, the Instructors, and the students were excited beyond measure; they celebrated wildly, and many even shed tears of excitement.

Vice Principal Xu looked up at the arena dome, gazing at the three flags on the dome; his lips trembled, his heart excited to the extreme.

Those three fluttering flags represented the Royal Academy, Tiandu Academy, and Huating Academy respectively; the Royal Academy was at the highest point, Tiandu Academy second, and Huating Academy third.

That's right, there was no Yuanling Academy flag above.

In every Academy Exchange Tournament, only the flags of the champion, runner-up, and third-place academies are hung up; as for the fourth-place team, they do not have such an honor.

Yuanling Academy is back!
