398: The broken exquisite pagoda! (asking for monthly ticket)

“As expected, he’s still very strong.”

The battle on the field ended, and Sui Shuyuan, who had exited the Martial Arts Arena, couldn't help but smile at Jiang Yuan and say.

Both Nezha and Zhao Gongming were terrifyingly strong!

He even suspected that either of them alone had the ability to defeat him.

However, because it would take longer, all three of them went up together.

You should know, Card Spirits don’t have traits.

Unlike himself.

The reason why the Sixth Realm and before the Sixth Realm are said to be two different worlds is mainly due to body reshaping and traits.

But Nezha and the others are Card Spirits; they don't have such a thing as traits at all.

Naturally, their combat power, theoretically speaking, cannot compare to theirs.

Yet, even so, their combat power is strong enough to challenge opponents of higher levels!

And two minor levels at that!

He didn't understand.

Sui Shuyuan truly didn't understand, but what he understood even more was why Jiang Yuan was able to create Card Spirits whose combat power far exceeded his own realm.

Even Beast Tamer Cards didn't have such a thing.

One could only say he was exceptionally gifted.

After taking a deep look at Jiang Yuan, Sui Shuyuan walked off the stage.

His battle was over; because of Jiang Yuan, he was now in tenth place.

But it wasn't a big problem; the rewards for tenth and ninth place weren't much different.

It was just tough for the original tenth-place Student.

The difference in rewards between tenth and eleventh place was quite significant.

After silently sighing to himself, Sui Shuyuan returned to his seat.

“How was it? He’s indeed very strong, right?”

“He’s indeed very strong. I feel like either Nezha or Zhao Gongming could defeat me.”

After Sui Shuyuan finished speaking, Dong Quanquan couldn't help but smile too.

He nodded: “Indeed, I have the same thought.”

“A genius, this is a genius. We are just relatively hardworking Students.”

Sui Shuyuan shook his head with a bitter smile, watching Jiang Yuan continue to challenge the next Student.

The eighth-ranked Student on the sixth-grade leaderboard.

However, the result was no different for him; under the combined assault of Nezha and Zhao Gongming, he lost the battle in no time.

Subsequently, the seventh, sixth, fifth, and fourth-place Students were also quickly defeated.

After all, from fourth to tenth place, their strengths were not actually very different, just some minor disparities and slight counter-relationships.

For example, in a proper fight, Sui Shuyuan was confident he could defeat the sixth-ranked Student.

But he was completely countered by the eighth-ranked Student, unable to overcome that hurdle at all.

This was unavoidable.

“Third place, his strength is already a clear dividing line from ours.”

Sui Shuyuan said, looking at An Miao, the third-ranked Student on the sixth-grade leaderboard, who was preparing to enter the arena.

As the third-ranked Student on the sixth-grade leaderboard, An Miao’s strength was naturally not to be underestimated.

As an Card Assassin, her attack intensity was very high.

Especially her trait, which was very well-suited to her profession.

This made her strength terrifying.

Especially for Card Masters like them who engage in close-quarters combat.

They were often eliminated the moment they saw her.

She seemed to have a few cards in her hand that could increase the attack intensity of the next attack.

Coupled with her trait that doubled the attack intensity of her first attack.

As long as it hit, under the same level, it was almost a guaranteed kill!

No purple-quality defensive equipment could withstand that attack from her.

It was just unknown if Jiang Yuan’s Linglong Pagoda would work.

If Jiang Yuan’s level was the same as hers, then the Linglong Pagoda’s invincibility skill could still be triggered.

But now Jiang Yuan was two levels below her.

The Linglong Pagoda was useless; could the other golden small pagoda block the attack?

After watching so many battles, although the golden small pagoda in Jiang Yuan’s hand hadn't been used many times, they had roughly guessed its ability.

It should be an extremely terrifying defense.

They just didn't know where its weakness was.

Was it the number of uses or the duration?

All of these remained unknown.

They would just have to see if An Miao’s attack this time could help them figure something out.

The battle quickly began, and Jiang Yuan, following his usual combat style, directly hid himself within Lao Jun’s whisk.

Nezha and Zhao Gongming appeared in the arena, but the opponent instantly vanished.

Jiang Yuan found it a bit strange but didn't pay too much attention to it.

Just wait for Lao Jun and Nezha to set the mountain on fire.

Hiding, in this kind of arena, was the easiest to break.

As long as the opponent didn't find him, he would be fine.

Jiang Yuan thought this, but the next second, Jiang Yuan’s true body directly appeared in the arena.

Hmm?

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then a cold, sharp gaze appeared before him.

“Indeed, you’re here!”

An Miao’s clear, cold voice rang out, and five or six purple lights suddenly flickered on the ice crystal shadow thorn in her hand, stabbing towards Jiang Yuan’s chest.

Although Jiang Yuan hadn't reacted to the situation yet, the passive skill [Tai Chi] instantly activated.

After weakening a portion of the opponent's attack intensity, the Linglong Pagoda and Linglong Pagoda also enveloped Jiang Yuan.

The Linglong Pagoda was on the outside, and it disintegrated the moment it was touched by the short thorn in the opponent's hand.

Jiang Yuan was startled. Although his Linglong Pagoda wasn't very useful against opponents whose strength exceeded his level, its defensive power was still very good.

But in front of the short thorn in the opponent's hand, it was like paper, disintegrating instantly.

This was indeed somewhat beyond Jiang Yuan's expectations.

And this was even after the Tai Chi skill had weakened the opponent's attack intensity by 20%.

This attack intensity is a bit too abnormal, isn't it? Is it something that can appear at this level?

As a thought flashed through Jiang Yuan’s mind, the black crystal-like short thorn in the opponent's hand had already made contact with the Linglong Pagoda.

This time, the Linglong Pagoda lasted longer.

However, the Star Power within Jiang Yuan’s body was instantly drained.

Jiang Yuan felt the loss of Star Power in his body, and his expression suddenly changed.

This attack intensity has already surpassed Shi Shen Late Stage!

No, is the third place already this abnormal?

As all the Star Power in his body disappeared, the Sweet Dew Water didn't even have time to fall before the Linglong Pagoda disintegrated.

The Linglong Pagoda disintegrated?

Lao Jun, whose face had been calm, couldn't help but contract his pupils when he saw this scene.

He was perfectly clear about how strong the Linglong Pagoda’s defense was.

Although the one in Jiang Yuan’s hand was just a replica, those few skills were all very good.

Putting aside other things, against opponents of the same stage, the Linglong Pagoda and Linglong Pagoda were perfectly stable and fully capable of protecting Jiang Yuan.

But what did he see now?

The Linglong Pagoda also disintegrated?

This meant that even after being weakened by Tai Chi and blocked by the Linglong Pagoda, this attack still exceeded the Linglong Pagoda’s defensive limit.

In other words, it exceeded the attack limit of Shi Shen Late Stage!

When Jiang Yuan fought the fourth-place Student just now, the opponent's full-strength blow only nearly drained Jiang Yuan’s Star Power.

Even though the Linglong Pagoda blocked one of the opponent’s attacks, Jiang Yuan still had some Star Power left in his body, completely enough to use a white-quality Skill Card.

But now?

All his Star Power was consumed, and he still couldn't withstand the opponent's attack.

Not only that, the disintegration of the Linglong Pagoda meant that the Linglong Pagoda’s own defense also failed to withstand the remaining attack intensity of the opponent.

What kind of monstrous attack is this?

As Lao Jun’s pupils contracted, the surrounding audience who saw this scene were equally surprised.

That golden small pagoda, known as indestructible, was broken just like that?

However, why did Jiang Yuan suddenly appear?

Not only the audience, but even Nezha, Zhao Gongming, and Shi Ji were somewhat surprised when they saw this scene.

Why did Jiang Yuan suddenly appear?

And, the Linglong Pagoda was actually shattered?

All of this happened in an instant.

Nezha and Zhao Gongming had only just raised their bows and arrows.

The moment An Miao appeared, their neural reaction speed was enough for them to take action.

But An Miao’s attack was too fast.

Just as she had said.

From the very beginning, he had guessed Jiang Yuan’s location.

With the Linglong Pagoda shattered, Jiang Yuan, who was at close quarters and even facing a life-threatening crisis, felt the greatest impact.

Surprise!

Indeed, he was surprised, surprised at how terrifying this young girl's attack intensity truly was, to be able to directly shatter the Linglong Pagoda through his layers of defense.

However, it’s not a big problem.

After the Linglong Pagoda shattered, the golden-yellow fragments from the golden small pagoda also transformed into light particles and appeared on Jiang Yuan’s clothes.

Or rather, on the Purple Ribbon Garment on Jiang Yuan’s body.

As the Purple Ribbon Garment’s Energy defense barrier popped out, the golden light particles also attached themselves to the Purple Ribbon Garment’s Energy defense barrier, blocking this attack.

Linglong Pagoda skill [Pagoda]!

When the Linglong Pagoda is shattered, gain three seconds of invincibility.

Speaking of which, this seemed to be the first time Jiang Yuan had seen the Linglong Pagoda being shattered.

However, so it attaches to another defensive barrier?

He was somewhat curious; if he didn't have the Purple Ribbon Garment, how would this invincibility manifest?

But now was not the time to be curious about this.

An Miao was also very curious, looking up at Jiang Yuan with some surprise.

That shouldn't be, right?

Her full-strength attack, let alone Jiang Yuan, even Ji Daolong, ranked second, and that guy ranked first, as long as they were hit, they wouldn't be able to block it.

Why could he block it?

My attack intensity is beyond this stage!

An Miao was puzzled, but she also saw that the Linglong Pagoda on Jiang Yuan’s body had been shattered.

Jiang Yuan’s biggest reliance was gone; what defense could still block her?

This purple-gold defense barrier that just appeared?

Impossible!

The subsequent attack suddenly lacked the intensity of the first attack, but it could still reach the attack intensity of an ordinary Shi Shen Late Stage.

An Miao gritted her teeth, violating her Card Assassin principles, and attacked Jiang Yuan again.

Unfortunately, she still couldn't break through the Energy defense barrier on Jiang Yuan’s body.

“Holy crap, this is a turtle shell!”

“Is this guy that afraid of death? How many defensive items does he have on him?”

“Linglong Pagoda, after breaking the Linglong Pagoda, there's that golden small pagoda, and after breaking the golden small pagoda, he still has a defensive item on him, seriously…”

“To be fair, if you also had that many defensive items on you, you could definitely last more than 10 minutes against him.”

Facing his friend's teasing, the tenth-place, now eleventh-place Beast Tamer Card Master also gave an awkward smile.

How could he compare to Jiang Yuan? Jiang Yuan had so many defensive items on him.

Let alone three, even if he just took out one, it would be stronger than the defensive items on himself.

Indeed, is the ultimate goal of a Beast Tamer Card Master to protect oneself?

It seems that it is indeed so.

Look at Jiang Yuan; as long as he can protect himself and ensure he doesn't die, his Card Spirits can resolve all battles for him.

Truly enviable.

Beasts in Beast Tamer Cards require a lot of resources to feed, but Card Spirits don't seem to need it.

They can increase their strength simply by following the Card Master’s realm advancement.

However, envy was useless.

Jiang Yuan didn't seem to sell Summoning Cards.

Resting his chin on his hand, he continued to watch the match in the arena.

Upon seeing that Jiang Yuan’s last line of defense was also so strong, An Miao’s expression finally changed.

Indeed, if that terrifyingly defensive golden small pagoda was only the second line of defense, then the final line of defense must be even more terrifyingly strong.

This…

An Miao gritted her teeth and, against her will, re-entered stealth.

Zhao Gongming and Nezha's attacks were already nearing her.

But even so, she couldn't help but curse under her breath.

“Even a turtle shell isn’t this thick!”

Indeed, it wasn't that thick, but after the Linglong Pagoda was shattered, Jiang Yuan also panicked a bit.

After blocking the opponent's second attack with the Linglong Pagoda’s [Pagoda] skill, once the three seconds were up, Jiang Yuan was equivalent to a squishy target.

With only the Purple Ribbon Garment on him, he felt a severe lack of security!

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but become serious.

[Lightning Storm] was unleashed, a wide-range attack that not only made the hidden An Miao struggle to cope but, most importantly, was the card Jiang Yuan had made.

[Five Thunder Method · Lightning Doppelganger]!

As the name suggests, once this skill is used, within a certain period, Jiang Yuan can exchange positions with any lightning-attribute Energy in the arena.

It’s similar to the Flying Thunder God Technique.

While using these two skills, Jiang Yuan also directed Zhao Gongming, Nezha, and Lao Jun to use wide-range attack skills.

Instantly, wind rose, black lightning fell from the sky, and another wide-range lightning attribute skill, [Thunder Roar], was unleashed.

Samadhi True Fire and Six Ding Divine Fire were also used, covering the entire arena.

The Star Power in Jiang Yuan’s body was also rapidly draining, and the Jade Purification Bottle above his head continuously dropped Sweet Dew Water.

Now that the Linglong Pagoda no longer consumed Star Power, he would use all of it for offense!

But even so, Jiang Yuan still didn't send out his Golden Crow.

The Golden Crow was a trump card; it wasn't needed yet.

If the battle still couldn't be ended later, then he could send out the Golden Crow.

The interplay of fire and lightning covered the entire field.

An Miao’s purple-quality defensive equipment was almost unable to hold on.

Looking up at Jiang Yuan, An Miao decided to launch one last attack!

Success means victory, failure means death!
