399: A power that even Nezha finds difficult to deal with!

An Miao, amidst the flames and lightning, kept her gaze fixed on Jiang Yuan not far away.

The next second, a bolt of lightning struck, hitting her before she could dodge in time.

Although it didn't break her stealth, the sight of lightning hitting the ground was different from it hitting other creatures.

Nezha, Zhao Gongming, Shi Ji, and even Old Lord, who usually didn't pay much attention to this side, instantly detected An Miao's hidden location.

In the blink of an eye, flames and lightning simultaneously struck towards An Miao's position.

An Miao quickly moved, no longer caring about the lightning falling from the sky.

If it hits, it hits. Her purple-quality defensive equipment should be able to withstand one more attack.

Her body's toughness should also barely be enough to withstand one attack.

This distance is enough!

She was hit again by the lightning falling from the sky, or rather, she actively ran into it while moving.

Her purple-quality defensive equipment shattered, and at the same time, An Miao, in stealth, flickered and appeared before Jiang Yuan the next second.

The short dagger in her hand stabbed directly towards Jiang Yuan without hesitation.

Seeing An Miao suddenly appear in front of him, Jiang Yuan's pupils couldn't help but constrict.

Although his combat experience wasn't very rich, his nerve reaction speed was quite fast.

After all, with strong mental power, nerve reaction speed naturally becomes stronger.

After breaking through to Real Shen, while his body was being reshaped, he also clearly knew the extent of his mental power.

It was more than one major level higher than his realm!

Jiang Yuan's current mental power was roughly equivalent to Quail Head Late Stage of the Seventh Realm!

And even in Quail Head Late Stage of the Seventh Realm, Jiang Yuan's mental power was considered among the stronger ones.

As the Ice Crystal Shadow Thorn was about to hit Jiang Yuan, everyone in the audience watched nervously.

The next second, Jiang Yuan suddenly vanished!

The Ice Crystal Shadow Thorn missed, and An Miao was momentarily stunned.

Nezha's third Zhentian Arrow had already been shot, and Zhao Gongming's attack had also arrived.

At the same time, the Qiankun Circle, Huntian Ribbon, and Binding Dragon Rope were all entangling her.

An Miao, facing imminent death, decided to give it her all!

The range of [False Shape] is any object within five meters.

There's no time now to carefully check what items Jiang Yuan could replace within five meters.

It's better to just launch a large-scale attack.

Facing the incoming attacks, An Miao's expression remained unchanged, and the purple-quality card in her hand instantly shone.

Purple-quality Skill Card [Pillar of Blazing Fire]!

Within a range of about ten meters, an orange-red pillar of flame suddenly rose from the ground, engulfing An Miao as well.

However, An Miao also used another life-saving card.

Bought from Mu Qianshan, she had just used one, and now only the last [Seventy-Two Transformations · Sitting in Fire] remained.

A white-quality card, it could only allow her to be unharmed in flames for five seconds.

But five seconds was enough!

It just depends on whether Jiang Yuan has time to react and use this Skill Card.

After all, this Skill Card was made by him, so he must have it on him.

It doesn't matter, I'm going to die anyway.

The next second, the Zhentian Arrow pierced through her body.

The Pillar of Blazing Fire had just risen and hadn't yet fallen.

An Miao died, and the Martial Arts Arena disappeared.

"What a pity."

After exiting the Martial Arts Arena, An Miao also knew the outcome of the battle.

She lost.

Jiang Yuan blocked her final blow once again.

He blocked her third seemingly inevitable attack!

As expected of a Student who could challenge beyond his level with Shi Shen Early Stage strength to reach this point.

Even excluding the Card Spirit's abilities, his own abilities were very good.

"You won."

An Miao looked at Jiang Yuan in front of her and actively extended her hand.

After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Yuan also gave her face.

After all, it was in broad daylight.

As their hands clasped, An Miao spoke, "You still had defensive equipment on you, right?"

"Yes."

Jiang Yuan nodded. He indeed still had a piece of defensive equipment on him.

[Purple Ribbon Garment]!

An Miao's second attack actually hit the invincible barrier after the Linglong Pagoda shattered.

The Purple Ribbon Garment was still intact.

Since he hadn't taken any more attacks afterward, the Purple Ribbon Garment was naturally still on Jiang Yuan.

"Indeed."

An Miao smiled helplessly, then returned to the audience seats.

Jiang Yuan was a bit confused.

Why ask that?

In the end, you didn't even manage to trigger my Purple Ribbon Garment, did you?

However, this question was purely about what two different people were thinking, it wasn't the same thing at all.

An Miao thought that Jiang Yuan indeed still had a piece of defensive equipment, which was how he resisted the attack from that last Skill Card.

But Jiang Yuan felt a bit inexplicable, after all, he had just used his own [Five Thunder Arts · Thunder Doppelganger] to dodge her last attack.

[Pillar of Blazing Fire]?

What kind of last attack was that?

It was purely a Skill Card used casually.

And looking at the way it was cast, maybe she even used the wrong card.

The Thunder Doppelganger Jiang Yuan used directly transferred him to the furthest point from An Miao.

The audience present could see this clearly.

After all, Thunder Doppelganger only brought him to the location where the lightning struck, it wasn't substituting the lightning's fall, and then still appearing as lightning Energy.

"Hiss, this is a bit annoying."

After watching Jiang Yuan's battle, Ji Daolong, ranked second in the sixth grade, couldn't help but scratch his head, feeling a bit helpless.

His attack power wasn't as high as An Miao's.

Compared to An Miao and the guy ranked first, he was just a simple, traditional Card Master.

Wielding a long spear, facing an opponent like Jiang Yuan was obviously the most difficult for him among the three.

After all, he couldn't directly face Jiang Yuan; he needed to face Nezha and Zhao Gongming.

However, his combat power was truly terrifying.

If one wasn't careful, even the guy ranked first would have a hard time against him.

Well, simply put, it's extreme power!

His power was terrifying.

Even higher than Dong Quan Quan's full-strength confrontation with Nezha.

And his trait was also a combat trait; every third attack had about a seventy percent chance of triggering a critical hit.

The intensity of a critical hit was about 1.5 times that of a normal attack.

Combined with his strength, it was simply terrifying.

And unlike Dong Quan Quan, his movement speed and agility were not low; he was a complete hexagonal warrior.

And he was a hexagonal warrior with extremely prominent strength.

After Jiang Yuan returned to his seat and rested for a while, he then issued a battle invitation to the second-ranked.

No choice, that last battle was simply too perilous.

From over 3000th place, battling all the way to now, only that last battle gave Jiang Yuan a terrifying feeling.

Even his greatest reliance, the Linglong Pagoda, was shattered the moment they met.

This lack of security made Jiang Yuan very uncomfortable, and his mood couldn't calm down for a long time.

But fortunately, he ultimately won.

So, after only a brief rest, Jiang Yuan recovered his state.

Hmm, the opponent for the next battle is a traditional combat Card Master, so he shouldn't give me that feeling again.

I can leave it to Nezha and Zhao Gongming.

After Jiang Yuan let out a long breath, he challenged the next Student.

The challenge was instantly accepted, and a plain-looking young man stood up in the audience.

The young man's eyes held a smile, and when he saw Jiang Yuan turn to look at him, he also nodded slightly and smiled at Jiang Yuan.

After Jiang Yuan also nodded, the two walked towards the arena.

Jiang Yuan was closer to the Martial Arts Arena, so he went on stage first.

Ji Daolong followed soon after, not much slower than Jiang Yuan.

"Please guide me in the upcoming match."

After Ji Daolong stepped onto the stage, he smiled at Jiang Yuan and said.

"Let's learn from each other."

After Jiang Yuan nodded, the two entered the Martial Arts Arena one after another.

It was still a 3-second countdown.

The moment the 3-second countdown ended, purple light shone on both sides of the Martial Arts Arena.

Ji Daolong appeared in a set of plain black armor, just like his appearance, and a long spear made entirely of metal appeared in his hand.

Nezha looked at this scene with some surprise, stepping on his Wind Fire Wheels, holding his long spear, and directly smashed down towards Ji Daolong's location.

Zhao Gongming didn't rush to act; he planned to watch Nezha's battle with the opponent first before deciding.

If there was an opportunity, he would go up and ambush the opponent.

Hmm, this was taught by Old Lord.

Old Lord also said that when his Golden Bracelet was made, if the two of them went up together to ambush the opponent, the opponent would definitely not be able to defend against it.

What could Zhao Gongming say?

He could only agree with Old Lord.

Old Lord flicked his horsetail whisk, giving Jiang Yuan, who was hidden within the whisk, a more comfortable viewing position, then began to watch the battle in the arena.

He also chatted casually with Jiang Yuan.

"Why did you suddenly appear in that last battle?"

"What do you mean I suddenly appeared? I didn't know what Skill Card the opponent used, and then I came out."

Old Lord was a bit strange: "Skill Card, I did see a purple light flash on his body."

"So you didn't come out on your own."

Jiang Yuan complained weakly, "I'm not stupid, why would I come out on my own to be a target for the opponent? Especially when the opponent is a Skill Card Master."

"Alright then."

Old Lord nodded, unaware that at the moment Jiang Yuan disappeared from that battle, An Miao's friend in the audience also seemed to suddenly remember something and curiously asked An Miao.

"Jiang Yuan suddenly appeared in that last battle, was it because you used a Skill Card?"

"Yes."

An Miao nodded, "A Skill Card that dispels illusions, capable of nullifying transformations and illusions."

"Hmm? There's such a Skill Card!"

An Miao's friend was a bit excited: "Where did you buy it? I'll go buy two too, just in case I encounter an opponent like Jiang Yuan in the future."

"None left. I bought it from Mu Qianshan, and he only had this one."

An Miao shook her head: "This is said to be a reward he brought out from the Space-Time Gate Hall last time."

"A reward from the Space-Time Gate Hall, alright then."

An Miao's friend was a bit disappointed, after all, among the rewards from the Space-Time Gate Hall, there were many strange cards that had been lost.

Presumably, this card was one of those.

It's just a bit of a pity, this card would have been very good for dealing with Jiang Yuan.

However...

Hmm, it feels like many cards that can counter Jiang Yuan are sold by Mu Qianshan.

An Miao's friend thought of this, couldn't help but smile, and then found Mu Qianshan's contact information.

"Friend, you don't want Jiang Yuan to know about you backstabbing him, do you?"

Mu Qianshan, who received the message, was stunned.

I backstabbed Jiang Yuan again?

Which card was it this time?

Mu Qianshan looked at Ji Daolong, who was currently fighting Nezha in the arena, and fell into thought.

This guy doesn't seem to be using any cards that I'm familiar with.

So which card was it?

Mu Qianshan really didn't know, after all, that card was indeed useless to him.

He had never encountered an opponent who used illusions.

So even though the card was sold, he completely didn't remember what its effect was or who he sold it to.

Mu Qianshan thought for a long time, and after failing to recall, he pouted and continued to watch the battle in the arena.

In the arena, the battle between Nezha and Ji Daolong grew more intense.

Nezha, as the Heavenly Court War God, San Tan Hai Hui Great God, the boss of Chen Tang Pass, the gatekeeper of the South Heaven Gate, and the Red Flower Double Stick of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, naturally had very rich combat experience.

After fighting for a short while, he discovered the opponent's characteristic.

Or rather...

Jiang Yuan seemed to say this was a trait.

Every third attack was stronger than usual.

But it seemed to be probabilistic.

Among dozens of strong attacks, there were one or two that were the same as usual and didn't trigger.

Understanding this, Nezha let loose. Although he was at a disadvantage in terms of raw strength, Nezha was much more skilled than the opponent in terms of technique.

Without even talking about defeating the opponent, it was relatively easy to contend with him.

"His trait isn't a boosting trait, give me a buff!"

After Nezha dodged the opponent's attack again, he shouted at Shi Ji.

Shi Ji nodded, and two Undead Enhancement Card Masters appeared. One instantly died, giving Nezha a terrifying buff.

The other continuously used various purple-quality cards to amplify Nezha's various abilities.

As for the [Lingzhu Reincarnation] skill, neither Nezha nor Jiang Yuan had any intention of using it.

The consumption was too terrifying.

Each use required a purple-quality heavenly material and earthly treasure!

Moreover, this could be said to be their trump card.

Currently, Jiang Yuan hadn't even sent out the Golden Crow, and Zhao Gongming, Shi Ji, Old Lord, and he himself hadn't even joined the battle yet, so they naturally wouldn't use this skill.

They might only use this skill if they all joined the battle and still couldn't defeat the opponent.

For now, it was Zhao Gongming's turn to enter the fray.

The remaining Undead Enhancement Card Master gave Zhao Gongming a buff, and then Zhao Gongming transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged towards the opponent.

"This guy's strength is too strong!"

Nezha roared, dodged the opponent's attack, then pointed his hand, and the Huntian Ribbon directly wrapped around the opponent!
