“Yuan! Qing! Hua!”

A scum... uh, a boy with dreadlocks whose Star Map suddenly lit up shouted.

His Star Map was like an endless river, and it looked rather peculiar. The sixth star slot continuously flickered.

Next, a series of “stars” fell and was slammed against Yuan Qinghua.

Yuan Qinghua shook her short hair with a mischievous smile on her face. At that time, her body abruptly disappeared without a trace in front of everyone, leaving behind only some stars being smashed against the ground.

“Tsk, tsk...” Jiang Xiao shook his head in admiration and sighed while clucking his tongue against the roof of his mouth.

What a brilliant move.

And that smile...

Damn it. Such a sweet and beautiful smile.

“Li Yuan, save some Star Power,” Ying Xi barked loudly to stop him. However, he heard one of the members of the alliance yelling, “There! There!”

Bang!

A violent fire Star Technique was blasted at a red fire pillar, after which it dashed towards the wall like a huge dragon.

Jiang Xiao’s body shuddered, and the oncoming heatwave gave him a great shock. He couldn’t be bothered by the sweet smile anymore.

Where did “there” refer to?

Of course, it was not where Yuan Qinghua was standing at. She could hide well. At least, the Awakened students couldn’t see through it. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to enter the battlefield to take the golden bow away.

The so-called “there” actually referred to the spot where Jiang Xiao and his teammates were standing at. Their figures had been detected!

Upon sight of a fiery red dragon darting towards them, Jiang Xiao and the rest were dumbfounded.

Damn it. What a disaster!

That damned, sweet smile... Uh, that damned Yuan Qinghua. Not only did she take the weapon away, she even framed us.

Without hesitation, Han Jiangxue immediately activated Sky Smasher while the Flame Dragons roared and dashed towards the wall, causing it to shatter. It then plunged straight into Sky Smasher.

Brilliant!

In an instant, everyone in the two teams felt a huge sense of relief. It was no wonder that she was Goddess Xue. She lived up to expectations!

“Go! Go!” Cai Yao had a sullen expression, and she hurriedly urged everyone to run away.

As the saying goes, a menacing tiger cannot defeat a bunch of wolves. Not to mention, the godly existences from Beijing were not wolves, but menacing tigers.

The two teams were so scared that they hugged their heads and scurried away while the people behind them were like “tigers” that broke out of the cage. Behind the tigers, a group of dumbfounded Ancient Warriors stared at the group of people foolishly and watched them scurry away.

Why did you stop halfway during the fight?

You guys have an advantage!

We’ve already gotten rid of a lot of them, why have you all run away?

The faces of the two Ancient Archer Generals stiffened as they tilted their heads, appearing hideous yet adorable.

Shortly afterward, an Ancient Archer General barked angrily, causing the Ancient Warriors to recover from the shock and start killing again.

Started killing?

Yes, there were fire snakes all over the ground while the explosive Little Firemen jumped around.

Jiang Xiao’s team was running right in front, and the elites of Cainan Province greeted them.

Chumo and her three teammates were shocked. What was going on?

Although they had no idea what happened, they did hear the sounds of yelling and shrieking. The team of four frantically turned around and scurried backward.

At the back of the team representing Cainan Province, Xiaoqi and her teammates stood rooted to the ground. They had all felt the tremor, but they heard the angry roars!

Xiaoqi panicked and subconsciously reached out, causing a shot of wind to blow out.

Regardless of what happened, blowing them backward and buying herself some time to escape would be the safest choice!

Whether you guys die or not, it has nothing to do with me at all. If you buy a little time for me to survive, that would be your greatest value!

Shen Xing, the melee fighter of the team representing Cainan Province, had clearly sensed the direction that the wind was blowing in. With an icy cold gaze in her eyes, she tilted her body and stepped on the wall, after which she ran across the wall as she dodged the oncoming wind. She threw out the dagger in her hand too.

“Chumo!” yelled a team member representing Cainan Province. The Medical Awakened did not dodge the wind and was blown backward.

A sound came from the space in front of the team representing Cainan Province.

“Watch out!” Xiaoqi’s teammate loudly yelled as she leaped towards Xiaoqi. The sharp dagger brushed against Xiaoqi’s scalp with a whoosh.

It was shocking and dangerous.

Before everyone in the team could calm down, the Shield Warrior turned around and was about to save his team’s Medical Awakened, Xiong Chumo. However, he discovered that she had already fallen into the arms of a tall and domineering boy.

Li Weiyi was at the back.

Sister Lin fell from the sky?

Uh, the wind blew Sister Xiong over?

Li Weiyi put an arm around Xiong Chumo, giving Jiang Xiao and everyone else a great shock.

“It’s that girl’s aura. Has she been following us?!” Li Weiyi could run fast because he had long legs. He had always been calm and composed, but after sensing Xiaoqi’s aura again, he flew into a rage.

This group of scumbags actually dared to catch up!?!

Han Jiangxue looked at the girl in Li Weiyi’s arms and seemed to have misunderstood his words. She asked, “Who is this?”

“Not her. I mean the girl who set us up just now. The one who blew you towards the Ancient Warriors,” Li Weiyi hurriedly explained.

“Where? Where’s her!?!” Jiang Xiao was immediately interested. While asking, he had already reached the venue. “Hah! I see her!”

He saw the jealous woman who had just been lifted up against the wall. Without hesitation, he raised his hand to throw out a shot of Blessing!

I don’t care where you’re from, but please try the toxic healer from Beijiang Province!

Double bet!

“Ah~” Xiaoqi’s unrestrained moaning could be heard in the empty alley...

To Jiang Xiao’s surprise, a Flame Torch Whip was thrown out, and it accurately wrapped itself around Xiaoqi’s waist.

Did Han Jiangxue attack?

Xiaoqi’s teammates’ expressions changed drastically, and they immediately activated their Star Techniques!

Quiet!

Did I say you could move?

Jiang Xiao threw a shot of Sound of Silence, and all of a sudden, the violent opponents died down. The scene was rather joyous-looking.

Han Jiangxue put her right hand behind her and pulled Xiaoqi forcefully.

The Tianjin members looked at each other, but no one stopped her.

They weren’t silly. Upon hearing Li Weiyi’s words, they knew that there was a feud between them.

The more convincing thing was that Li Weiyi was carrying a girl in his arms, and to a certain extent, he saved her life.

Han Jiangxue moved forward rapidly, and her body suddenly tilted, brushing past Xiaoqi and the rest before dashing toward the back.

Perhaps she was afraid that she didn’t apply enough force, as she threw out another shot of Barren Wind when Xiaoqi brushed shoulders with her.

It was as if Xiaoqi’s body was a launcher, as she launched another shot!

“Ahhh!” Xiaoqi, now recovered from the shock, began to cry in a moment of panic. “Put me down, stop it! Stop, please, put me down, please...”

Girls crying was what Jiang Xiao couldn’t tolerate the most.

Whenever they cried, he would feel an urge to laugh...

Xiaoqi had just recovered from the shock. Hence, she was a little flustered. After she yelled, she hurriedly tried to think of some measures to make up for it. She reached out and was about to use a wind-series Star Technique to stabilize her body.

Whoosh!

Another ray of Blessing landed on her.

“Uuu... Stop... ah~” Xiaoqi was just like a cannon, and she suddenly stopped trying to save herself. While making strange noises, she continued to throw attacks at the spot behind her.

There was a menacing group of tigers behind her!

After fighting against the Ancient Warriors several times, they thought they had the upper hand. What happened in the end?

Who wouldn’t feel infuriated to be duped and cut off by a dirty trick?

Everyone was dashing forwards maniacally, and all of a sudden, they were hit by a human cannonball!?!

They couldn’t see well in the dark environment, and there was no Night Vision equipment in the official military backpack either. According to the rules, only personal weapons and Star Beads were allowed in the arena.

That had also caused many contestants to be unable to detect the danger immediately. Of course, having said that, even if the students could clearly see that the person dashing towards them was a human, they wouldn’t care.

I don’t care who you are. I’ll just kill you!

While I’m angry, I’ll definitely kill anyone that comes my way. What’s the point of being nice to your competitors?

Like a human cannonball, Xiaoqi was dragged by the Flame Torch Whip and pushed twice by Barren Wind. Two shots of Blessing also nourished her, dazing her.

Before she could see clearly again, she vaguely saw a crimson something coming her way.

Fireball? Fire Pillar? Flame Dragon? Flame Dragon Bomb...

Bang!

The sounds of explosions were endless!

Xiaoqi, flying their way, was bombed terribly, and her entire body was charred and smoking...
