60: Chapter 60 The First Tournament

The five members of Yang Lei's team looked at the three beams of light opposite them, their expressions incredibly vivid.

"Mystic Gold Queen Bee? Ice Crystal Butterfly? Your three Armor Spirits... are all of the Spirit Rank?!"

Lin Fan stood in the back with his arms crossed, wearing an expression of someone watching a good show.

Yang Lei's complexion shifted from shock to ashen, then from ashen to flushed.

He took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth.

"Lin Fan, what is the meaning of this? Sending only three people, are you looking down on us?"

Lin Fan shrugged.

"To deal with you, three people are enough."

A vein throbbed on Yang Lei's forehead.

He raised his head, looked at the three people opposite him, and sneered.

"Fine, since your captain is being arrogant, don't blame us for bullying the few with the many."

He raised his right arm, and flames ignited once again.

"Zhang Feng, Wind Blade suppression! Wang Xue, harass from the side! Zhao Yu, keep an eye on the one controlling the bees from the air! Li Yuanyuan, be ready to heal at any time!"

"Attack!"

All five people moved at once.

Yang Lei swung his Flame Claw violently, charging towards Sun Wei with a fierce Aura!

Sun Wei raised his left arm, and the Iron Scale Shield blocked steadily in front of him.

"Clang!"

Sparks flew everywhere.

Yang Lei felt a jolt in his right arm and his hand went numb, but the shield didn't budge an inch.

He gritted his teeth, instantly activating his Wolf Shadow Step. His entire body transformed into a flaming afterimage, bypassing Sun Wei's front and swinging his claw again from the side...

"Bang!"

An ice wall appeared out of thin air beside Sun Wei.

Yang Lei clawed at the ice wall, causing ice chips to scatter. Fine cracks appeared on the surface of the ice wall, but it still stood firm.

He turned his head sharply.

Su Xiaoxiao stood not far away, her right hand still raised, and she winked at him.

"Captain Yang, sneak attacks are not very nice~"

Yang Lei's expression darkened.

"Zhang Feng!"

Three Wind Blades whistled through the air, heading straight for Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao remained calm and unhurried, gently rotating her right hand.

The Ice Crystal Butterfly flapped its wings, and dozens of ice crystals shot out from them—Ice Crystal Scatter!

Those ice crystals met the Wind Blades like a torrential rain, colliding with them in mid-air.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Hit by the ice crystals, the Wind Blades were instantly weakened significantly. The remaining force struck in front of Su Xiaoxiao, only fluttering a few corners of her clothes.

Zhang Feng's pupils constricted.

His Wind Blades had achieved nothing.

"Wang Xue! Now's your chance!"

Wang Xue had already circled around to five meters behind Su Xiaoxiao. With a sudden burst of power from her left leg, she charged out like a white bolt of lightning.

A fan-shaped blast of cold air sprayed out—Ice Breath!

The cold air swept toward Su Xiaoxiao's back.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't even look back, her footsteps suddenly becoming erratic.

Butterfly Dance!

Her entire body was like a fluttering butterfly. With a gentle sway to the side, the Ice Breath brushed past her shoulder, not even touching the corner of her clothes.

Wang Xue was stunned.

Before she could react, Su Xiaoxiao had already turned around, raising her right hand slightly, and tapped her fingertip against the fur armor on Wang Xue's left leg.

Freezing Touch!

Wang Xue felt her left leg stiffen. She looked down, and her face instantly turned deathly pale.

From the point where Su Xiaoxiao's fingertip made contact, a layer of ice crystals was rapidly spreading, covering her entire left leg in the blink of an eye.

She wanted to retreat, but her left leg was completely unresponsive.

"My... my leg!"

Su Xiaoxiao withdrew her hand, smiling brightly.

"Young Miss, you are too impatient~"

Wang Xue hopped backward on one leg, looking utterly disheveled.

Yang Lei's expression was ashen.

He looked at Zhao Yu.

"Zhao Yu! What are you doing?!"

Zhao Yu was hovering five meters in the air, his bat wings spread, preparing to dive down and provide support.

But the moment he moved, he realized he was already surrounded by worker bees.

Qin Ling stood not far away, her dark golden left eye fixed on him.

"Your opponent is me."

Zhao Yu gritted his teeth and flapped his bat wings, trying to break through the encirclement.

The worker bees swarmed forward instantly, furiously colliding with his bat wings.

Although those worker bees didn't have strong attack power, their numbers were too vast, and he couldn't break out at all.

"Captain! I'm trapped!"

Yang Lei took a deep breath and looked at Li Yuanyuan.

"Li Yuanyuan! Heal Wang Xue!"

Li Yuanyuan raised her right arm, green light flickering, about to release Healing Light.

But just as she raised her hand, an ice crystal flew over and accurately struck her wrist.

The Healing Light was extinguished instantly.

Su Xiaoxiao waved at her.

"Young Miss, I'm right here~"

Li Yuanyuan's expression changed, and she hurriedly raised her Thorn Wood Shield.

Su Xiaoxiao waved her right hand repeatedly, continuously activating Ice Crystal Scatter. Dozens of ice crystals poured toward Li Yuanyuan like a torrential rain.

The ice crystals struck the Thorn Wood Shield, sending large amounts of ice chips flying, and a layer of white frost quickly covered the surface of the wooden shield.

Li Yuanyuan gritted her teeth and persisted. The green light on her right arm desperately maintained the shield, but she couldn't free up a hand to heal anyone at all.

Yang Lei surveyed the entire battlefield.

Wang Xue's left leg was frozen, and she could only hop on one leg to dodge Su Xiaoxiao's sporadic attacks, completely losing her combat effectiveness.

Zhao Yu was trapped in the swarm of bees, unable to even take care of himself.

Li Yuanyuan was suppressed by Su Xiaoxiao and could only defend passively.

Zhang Feng was still in the distance, but his Wind Blades were completely useless against Sun Wei's shield.

And as for himself...

He looked at Sun Wei in front of him.

Sun Wei was still standing in front of him, his left arm holding the shield steadily, a hint of a smile on his honest face.

"Captain Yang, you can't get past."

Yang Lei gritted his teeth.

"Zhang Feng! With me, let's break this shield first!"

Zhang Feng nodded. He swung his left arm continuously, and streams of Wind Blades poured toward Sun Wei like a torrential rain.

Yang Lei attacked at the same time, his Flame Claw furiously clawing at the Iron Scale Shield.

"Clang, clang, clang, clang."

Sparks and Wind Blades intertwined. Shallow marks were left on Sun Wei's Iron Scale Shield, but he didn't retreat a single step.

He held the shield steadily with his left arm, looked at the two people opposite him panting for breath, and spoke honestly.

"Are you done hitting?"

Yang Lei was stunned.

Sun Wei gave an honest smile.

"Then it's my turn."

He suddenly raised his left leg and stomped heavily on the ground.

Earth Vein Tremor!

"Boom!"

The entire arena shook.

A shockwave spread out from under Sun Wei's feet. Caught off guard, Yang Lei and Zhang Feng stumbled, nearly falling over.

At that very instant, Qin Ling moved.

Her dark golden left eye flashed rapidly. The remaining worker bees in the air instantly split into two groups, pouncing toward Yang Lei and Zhang Feng.

Yang Lei had just steadied himself when he was surrounded by over a dozen worker bees.

Those worker bees stung his right arm, neck, and face frantically. He swung his claws desperately to drive them away, but their numbers were too great, and he couldn't clear them at all.

Zhang Feng had it even worse. He was besieged by worker bees, and he couldn't release his Wind Blades in time, so he could only flee with his head covered.

"Li Yuanyuan! Heal!" Yang Lei roared.

Li Yuanyuan gritted her teeth. Risking being struck by ice crystals, she forced herself to raise her right arm and release Healing Light.

The green light landed on Yang Lei, and the swelling in his right arm subsided slightly.

But the next moment, Su Xiaoxiao appeared in front of her.

"Young Miss, you are too disobedient~"

Su Xiaoxiao raised her right hand and tapped her finger on Li Yuanyuan's right arm.

Freezing Touch!

Li Yuanyuan felt her right arm stiffen. She looked down and saw ice crystals rapidly spreading from Su Xiaoxiao's fingertip, covering her entire Armorized right arm in the blink of an eye.

The Healing Light was completely extinguished.
