75: Cooperate! The Knight's Resolve
Zhu Ming naturally also noticed that ever since the Rathalos appeared, Consultant had been hiding in a safe place watching the show, which made him a bit dissatisfied.
But a single sentence from Consultant made his expression freeze.
"Didn't you say you could handle it yourself?"
"..."
After Consultant finished speaking, he saw Zhu Ming's eye twitch slightly, his lips pressed tightly together, and he didn't make a sound for a long time.
Seeing his appearance, Consultant gave a helpless smile and then said:
"Sigh, fine, fine. I'll help out a little, okay?"
Only then did Consultant take out the famous sword moon shadow from his space ring.
Although he said he would help, he didn't charge straight in. Instead, he quickly ran a few steps with the sword toward Zhu Ming, who was adjusting his breathing.
"What are you doing?"
Zhu Ming furrowed his brows, looked at Consultant's smiling face, and couldn't help but ask.
Consultant smiled faintly and raised his left hand, shaking it:
"Don't rush, I'm adding a BUFF!"
"What..."
Before Zhu Ming could react, a golden light fell upon him.
In an instant, a burst of abundant energy poured into Zhu Ming's body, and a golden radiance flashed across his eyes.
"This is... a magic crystal stone?"
Zhu Ming immediately guessed it. Consultant definitely couldn't learn this kind of divine attribute spell.
Consultant didn't intend to hide it. He smiled, raised his hand and shook it, then clenched his fist in front of his chest and raised it high again.
"The Determination of the Knight Serving the King!"
After continuously using the power of the magic crystal stone to apply the Special magic crystal stone skill to both himself and Zhu Ming, he lowered his hand and spoke to Zhu Ming:
"Is that enough? Do you have the confidence to instant-kill that big idiot dragon with one move?"
Consultant had never seen a real dragon. Even the Rathalos in front of him was just created using Mimicry Magic.
He had no respect or fear for the Dragon Race.
Strangely, after Zhu Ming heard Consultant's words, he seemed to think of something, and a rare smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Heh heh..."
After a soft laugh, he said nothing more.
He didn't even ask what skill Consultant had applied to him, and simply raised the sword of night and fire again.
Blue magic power quickly adhered to the sword's edge, and at the same time, there was a sacred brilliance upon it!
"Night Style..."
Zhu Ming whispered the phrase, and his magic power rapidly surged!
Although Consultant had told Zhu Ming to go ahead, since the BUFFs were already applied, it would be too much of a loss not to strike once.
So he slightly crouched down, slanted the famous sword moon shadow at his waist, and gently placed his right hand on the hilt.
The Rathalos looked at the two people not far away, its golden Dragon Eyes flickering with the aura of fire.
It pressed its two wings firmly against the ground, and its two hind legs braced against the earth, opening its large mouth like a giant cannon emplacement.
Flames rapidly gathered in its mouth, and then... Whoosh!
With a Dragon Roar, scorching lava and flames shot out toward Consultant and Zhu Ming!
At the same time, Consultant and Zhu Ming's moves were fully charged!
The two hadn't discussed it, but they attacked together with perfect understanding!
"Crescent Moon Shadow!"
"Comet of Darkness!"
Consultant's Sword Energy flew out first, transforming into a crescent moon shape shimmering with blue and gold in mid-air!
This move was silent, seemingly capable of cutting through everything, effortlessly splitting the Rathalos's flames in half.
Taking advantage of this instant, Zhu Ming's Magic Power Torrent reappeared!
The abundant magic power mixed with holy strength greatly amplified the power of this move!
Because Consultant had broken through the flames, Zhu Ming's move successfully blasted the Rathalos.
Instantly, a bloody, fatal wound was struck upon the Rathalos's massive body!
"Awooo!"
The Rathalos roared toward the sky, struggled violently a few times, and then weakly collapsed onto the ground.
Immediately afterward, its body turned into purple magic power and quickly dissipated into the air... "Heh, that's all?"
Consultant looked at the purple magic power dispersing in the air and couldn't help but chuckle.
He hadn't expected the imposing and majestic Rathalos to be so vulnerable.
At this moment, outside the Gladiatorial Arena, the viewing students in the academy were in chaos.
After Jin Teng summoned the Rathalos, everyone thought Consultant and Zhu Ming were guaranteed to lose.
Some people were even secretly praying that the two wouldn't be too seriously injured and affect the subsequent matches.
But who could have imagined?
Consultant and Zhu Ming not only won, but they won so quickly!
"Are these two really first-year freshmen? That's incredible!"
"I heard they are in the Special Class. Could it be that Dean Jiang gave them special training?"
"I'm so envious. I want to join the Special Class too."
"That's enough. Our talent isn't the same as theirs. Even if you could get into the Special Class, you definitely couldn't be as strong as them!"
"Of course, but they are too strong. This is the first time I've seen someone defeat a Flying Dragon Species so easily!"
"Exactly. Even if it was just a Wyvern created by Mimicry Magic, it's enough to prove Consultant and Zhu Ming's strength!"
The students of Longjun Awakening Academy were enthusiastically discussing the matter, while Jin Teng on the stage had an extremely gloomy expression.
He had thought that creating a Flying Dragon Species would guarantee an easy victory, but he didn't expect the strength of those two freshmen to far exceed his imagination!
Jiang Cen still wore a smile on his face, seemingly unsurprised by Consultant and Zhu Ming's strength.
He looked at Jin Teng and said with a smile:
"Dean Jin, the outcome of this first round should be quite obvious now, shouldn't it?"
Following this sentence, everyone turned their gaze toward the other screen.
Displayed on it was the battle arena of Shuoshu Awakening Academy.
Two students were facing the Flame Giant created by Jiang Cen.
Although they weren't at a disadvantage, the Flame Giant had thick skin and flesh, and the winner certainly couldn't be determined in a short amount of time.
"It seems I underestimated you!"
Jin Teng sighed softly, slightly restrained his cold expression, and deliberately put on a helpless smile as he spoke:
"The first round, you win."
As soon as these words were spoken, the viewing students below the stage showed excited expressions.
"That's great! Victory in the First Battle!"
"So strong! It looks like we're going to win this match!"
"Exactly. Even if the opponent has a trump card, as long as we win the next match, we will definitely win in the end!"
The students of Dragon County below the stage were all incredibly hopeful for future victory.
Jin Teng suppressed the ruthlessness flickering in his eyes, looked at Jiang Cen again, and gestured with a raised hand.
Jiang Cen understood instantly and immediately gave his Staff a slight shake.
At this moment, Consultant and Zhu Ming in the Gladiatorial Arena were watching the two people on the other side battling wits and strength against the Flame Giant.
Suddenly, a voice sounded.
"The first round of the competition has ended. The winners are Consultant and Zhu Ming of Longjun Awakening Academy!"
Following this announcement, everything around them began to gradually shatter.
The massive Flame Giant also stopped moving, transforming into blue magic power and slowly fading away.
The next moment, as the magic power shone, the four people reappeared inside the original academy grounds.
Upon seeing Consultant and Zhu Ming, many students immediately broke out in cheers and celebration.
In contrast, the people from Shuoshu Awakening Academy on the other side had expressions like they had swallowed a fly, remaining silent with gloomy faces.
Consultant chuckled softly and was just about to leave when he suddenly noticed a gaze.
That was one person standing among the opposing team—Li Yi!
