14: Chapter 14 The Battle for Class Monitor (Part Two)
Su Xiaoxiao was not tall, just over 1.6 meters, with a sweet appearance and a high ponytail, looking like a girl next door.
But at this moment, she stood in the arena, her eyes exceptionally calm, without a trace of nervousness.
Li Yang was a head taller than her, and at this moment, he was flexing his wrists, his gaze fixed tightly on his opponent.
"Begin!"
As soon as the words fell, both of them performed their Armor Transformation simultaneously.
Li Yang's right hand, from wrist to shoulder, was instantly covered in a layer of grayish-black feathers, each feather gleaming with a metallic luster.
A half-meter-long wing unfolded from his arm, flapping gently and stirring up a light breeze.
He pushed off with both feet, and his entire body slowly lifted off the ground, rising three meters into the air.
He could actually ascend and fly with just a single wing?!
Lin Fan's left eye narrowed slightly, and a panel appeared before his eyes.
【Race】: Iron-Winged Eagle
【Aptitude】: Mortal Spirit Upper Grade (Limit: Profound Spirit Upper Grade)
【Rank】: Rank 9
【Armor Transformation Part】: Arm
【Armor Transformation Skill】: Flight (Short-term hovering and gliding), Feather Blade (Launch feathers to attack).
【Current Status】: Spiritual Power abundant, slightly nervous.
【Evaluation】: Significant aerial advantage, but combat power greatly reduced after landing. Suitable for guerrilla tactics, not suitable for head-on confrontation.
The Armor Spirit Li Yang contracted was an Iron-Winged Eagle; this type of Armor Spirit did not have strong attack power, and its speed was not particularly fast due to the heavy feathers.
Therefore, among Mortal Spirit Upper Grade Armor Spirits, it was not very popular.
But unexpectedly, Li Yang had quite good luck; this Iron-Winged Eagle had actually granted him an Armor Skill for flight.
One must know that in the Armor Warrior Realm, one can only contract one Armor Spirit.
It is extremely rare for an Armor Spirit to master flight capabilities within the Armor Warrior Realm, which undoubtedly gave Li Yang a huge advantage in the early stages of the Realm.
Su Xiaoxiao's expression sank, but she quickly returned to calmness.
A blue light flickered on her right hand, and a layer of transparent ice crystals spread from her wrist to her fingertips, thin as cicada wings, shimmering with iridescent light under the sun.
The ice crystals were not just a simple covering, but had formed an exquisite pair of half-finger gauntlets.
On the back of her hand, there was a pair of transparent butterfly wing patterns, vivid and lifelike.
Ice Crystal Butterfly, Armor Transformation Part: Hand.
Skills: Ice Crystal Scatter, Butterfly Dance, Freezing Touch.
Su Xiaoxiao did not have a flight Armor Skill, but fortunately, the Ice Crystal Butterfly also granted her an area-of-effect Armor Skill.
And after a week of time to Cultivate.
Su Xiaoxiao was already a Rank 4 Armor Warrior, one Rank higher than Li Yang.
Her Ice Crystal Butterfly was already Rank 10, and its quality was Profound Spirit Rank.
Who would win or lose between the two was truly hard to say.
Lin Fan raised an eyebrow, watching the battlefield intently.
Li Yang struck first.
He hovered in the air and waved his right hand.
Five feathers fell from his wings, turning into five gray streaks of light in the air, whistling through the air as they shot downwards.
Feather Blade!
Su Xiaoxiao didn't even blink; she raised her right hand and spread her five fingers.
Dozens of ice crystals shot out from her fingertips, dense and numerous, almost covering half the arena.
Ice Crystal Scatter!
The Feather Blades and ice crystals collided in the air, bursting into clusters of ice shards.
But the number of ice crystals far exceeded the Feather Blades, and more ice crystals passed the collision point, enveloping Li Yang in the air.
Li Yang's expression changed; he flapped his wings wildly, dodging left and right in the air.
A piece of ice crystal grazed his cheek, leaving a thin trail of blood.
Li Yang hovered three meters in the air, his face gloomy.
He had originally thought that by relying on his flight advantage, he could easily kite Su Xiaoxiao.
But he didn't expect that Su Xiaoxiao's Ice Crystal Scatter was an area-of-effect attack, which perfectly countered his kiting tactic.
Li Yang gritted his teeth and continued to launch Feather Blades.
Five. Ten. Fifteen.
The Feather Blades poured down like a rainstorm.
Su Xiaoxiao stood in place, waving her right hand repeatedly, Ice Crystal Scatter coming wave after wave, weaving an airtight net in the air.
Feather Blades and ice crystals collided continuously, bursting into ice shards that filled the sky, shimmering with fine light under the sun.
The watching students watched intently.
"So intense!"
"Both of them are still burning through their reserves!"
"Let's see whose Spiritual Power gives out first!"
The corners of Lin Fan's mouth curled up slightly.
The two seemed to have similar consumption of Spiritual Power, but the actual gap was much larger than it appeared on the surface.
Li Yang's Feather Blade was a single-target attack; he could only launch five at a time, but the Spiritual Power consumed by each one was not small.
Although Su Xiaoxiao's Ice Crystal Scatter launched dozens of shards at once, the Spiritual Power consumed by a single ice crystal was extremely low, winning by sheer quantity.
Plus, Su Xiaoxiao was already one Rank higher than Li Yang; if this continued, Li Yang would definitely be the first to collapse.
Apparently, Li Yang had also realized this.
He took a deep breath and suddenly stopped launching Feather Blades.
He folded his wings, hovering in the air, staring intently at Su Xiaoxiao below.
Su Xiaoxiao also stopped and looked up at him.
The two stared at each other. The whole scene was quiet.
"What is he doing?" someone asked in a low voice.
"Don't know, maybe he's going to use a big ultimate move?"
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes.
Suddenly, Li Yang's wings spread wide, and he dove down like a real hawk!
The speed was extremely fast!
At the same time, he waved his right hand repeatedly, launching the remaining Feather Blades as if they were free, covering the sky and the earth as they descended towards Su Xiaoxiao!
"Damn! He's going all out!"
"This is his last resort!"
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up.
"Bring it on."
She tapped her feet, and Butterfly Dance was activated.
Her figure instantly shifted three meters horizontally, and at the same time, she waved her right hand, Ice Crystal Scatter covering them head-on.
Feather Blades and ice crystals collided again.
But this time, Li Yang did not dodge.
He endured the damage of several ice crystals, broke through the rain of ice, formed his right hand into a claw, and went straight for Su Xiaoxiao!
The distance was only three meters! Two meters! One meter!
Li Yang's eyes lit up. Close enough!
As long as he touched her, his close-range burst would definitely win!
But just at the moment he was about to hit, Su Xiaoxiao's figure suddenly disappeared.
No, not disappeared. It was too fast.
Butterfly Dance second stage!
Su Xiaoxiao instantly appeared behind Li Yang, her right hand gently reaching out and patting his back.
Freezing Touch!
This was her third Armor Skill.
A layer of thin ice instantly spread, from his back to his shoulders, from his shoulders to his entire upper body.
Li Yang froze in mid-air, his wings instantly losing strength, and he fell straight down.
Bang! He crashed heavily to the ground, a layer of thin ice still covering his back, unable to move.
The whole scene was quiet for a second. Then, it erupted into thunderous cheers.
"Su Xiaoxiao won!"
"So cool! That flash was so cool!"
"Su Xiaoxiao, total domination!"
Su Xiaoxiao retracted her hand and looked down at Li Yang lying on the ground.
"You are too kind."
Li Yang lay on the ground, his face pale, his lips moving, but he couldn't say anything.
Zhao Tieshan stepped forward and announced the result.
"Su Xiaoxiao wins."
He glanced at Li Yang lying on the ground and waved his hand. "Someone, help him to the infirmary."
Two boys stepped forward, hoisted Li Yang up, and supported him as they walked out.
When Li Yang passed by Lin Fan, he suddenly stopped.
He turned his head and stared at Lin Fan, his eyes complex. "You're lucky to have a bye."
He paused. "But in the finals, you're doomed to lose. Su Xiaoxiao is stronger than me; what do you, a piece of trash, have to win?"
Lin Fan looked at him and smiled. "Regardless, I've made it to the finals, and you haven't."
"Just tell me, are you angry or not?"
