13: Chapter 13 Chen Xi's Terrifying Domination

Seeing this utterly bizarre scene before them.

In the spectator stands, the members of the Shenfeng Squad, led by Lin Feng, were so shocked that their mouths instantly fell open.

Their expressions were as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

"Wh... what's going on? Did I see that right? Was Sun Lin... just sent flying?"

Fang Yue rubbed his eyes, his tone filled with incredulous questioning.

He even suspected that he might be hallucinating because he had been too careless.

Lin Feng's expression was even uglier, reaching the extreme. He stared fixedly at the arena, muttering to himself in disbelief:

"Impossible... This is absolutely impossible! That Li Murou didn't even make a move; didn't her skill miss? How did Sun Lin get sent flying!?"

Just as the Shenfeng Squad members were plunged into chaos and shock.

Yan Zidong, who had remained silent all this time, rarely revealed a trace of solemnity and astonishment on his face.

He spoke slowly, his voice low, dispelling the confusion for everyone:

"No, that Li Murou indeed did not take the initiative to attack."

His gaze was locked tightly onto Li Murou:

"It was Sun Lin who, before her attack could hit, was forcibly repelled by an invisible layer of defense on her body."

"What!? Repelled by a defense?" Zhang Xinyu exclaimed upon hearing this:

"Th... is this some kind of evil art? I've never heard of any support's defense skill that could send people flying!"

Watching the incredibly vivid expressions on the faces of Lin Feng and the others, Chen Xi, not far away, only slightly raised the corners of his mouth, forming a cold arc.

Scared already?

Don't be in such a rush.

The good show has only just begun!

He leaned leisurely against the back of his chair, calmly turning his gaze back to the arena.

At the edge of the arena, Sun Lin, who had been fiercely knocked away by that immense force, lay on the ground in a sorry state.

She also looked at the unscathed girl in the distance with shock, feeling as if her internal organs had been smashed by a heavy hammer, and her entire body's muscles and bones were so numb and sore that she couldn't muster any strength for a long time.

Enduring the intense pain throughout her body, Sun Lin trembled as she propped herself up from the ground bit by bit.

With a look filled with terror and confusion, she stared fixedly at Li Murou, squeezing out a single word in a hoarse voice:

"You..."

Meanwhile, Li Murou in the center of the arena, looking at Sun Lin who had been flying through the air a second ago and then lying on the ground the next, was also a bit slow to react at first.

However, a moment later, a look of sudden realization and wild joy appeared on her face!

"It's the effect of 【Thorn Echo】!"

One hundred percent damage reflection!

So... is this the power of the class core card Chen Xi gave me!?

Having figured this out, the last trace of timidity and anxiety in Li Murou's heart completely vanished.

Replacing it was unprecedented confidence and fighting spirit!

She did not give her opponent any chance to catch their breath.

Taking advantage of the fact that Sun Lin hadn't fully recovered yet, she placed her hands on the electronic keyboard in front of her again, and toward Sun Lin's direction, played another movement filled with sorrow and sluggishness!

"Sorrowful Elegy!"

This time, several musical notes filled with negative energy, carrying precise locking, slammed heavily toward Sun Lin, who had just steadied herself.

Sun Lin couldn't make any dodging movements in time; she could only watch helplessly as those few notes sank into her body.

However, after being hit by the notes, Sun Lin was surprised to discover.

There was no pain coming from her body, and not even her HP had dropped in the slightest.

"This is...?"

But soon, she discovered something even more terrifying than being injured!

Her body felt as if it had fallen into a quagmire; every movement became incredibly heavy and slow!

"My... my body!"

She discovered with horror that the simple action of wanting to lift her arm had now become even more difficult than lifting a mountain.

On the other side of the arena, Li Murou, watching Sun Lin's clumsy posture, which looked like a slow-motion replay, shook her head with dissatisfaction:

"The effect of 【Sorrowful Elegy】 is to reduce the opponent's movement speed and attack speed by 50% simultaneously! Having taken one hit, she can still barely move, it seems... I need to hit her again!"

Without the slightest hesitation, her slender fingers danced on the keys again, and a more sorrowful and desperate elegy was played once more!

And this time, because it was the third skill released in succession, it even triggered the passive effect on the S-rank core card—【Duet】!

Duet! Effect doubled!

Two waves of black notes, stacked together and almost materialized, slammed into Sun Lin like a violent storm once again.

Hum—!

The moment these two waves of notes completely merged into Sun Lin's body, her whole person, along with the surrounding air, seemed to have been pressed with a pause button.

Her arm, which she had just lifted halfway, her mouth slightly opened in terror, her eyes filled with despair and unwillingness...

Everything, absolutely everything, was like a frozen sculpture, completely solidified at this moment, unable to move a single inch!

In the spectator stands.

Watching this incredibly bizarre scene on the arena, the expressions on the faces of Lin Feng and the others had become incredibly vivid.

Their brains had almost entered a state of crashing.

"Wh... what's going on? Sun Lin... why can't she move at all?"

Fang Yue asked, stuttering, his voice filled with undisguisable trembling.

"Th... isn't it said that she's just a support? How... how can a support be played like this?"

Zhang Xinyu's face also turned deathly pale. Looking at Li Murou on the arena holding the electronic keyboard, who looked incredibly cute and dazed, she felt a chill shoot straight from the soles of her feet to her scalp.

Lin Feng's expression was even uglier, reaching the extreme.

He stared fixedly at the completely frozen Sun Lin on the arena, squeezing out his analysis from between his teeth:

"It looks like... it's that kind of debuff effect that slows down enemies, which she has forcibly stacked to the extreme using some unknown method... causing the slow debuff on Sun Lin to directly reach 100%... that's why she's completely frozen in place, unable to move..."

"Damn it! Can debuff effects even be stacked like this? How the hell are we supposed to fight!?"

Expressions of disbelief flashed across everyone's faces. The way they looked at Li Murou had completely shifted from initial contempt to deep wariness and fear.

Even Yan Zidong, who had always remained calm and composed, had a rare flash of lingering fear on his iceberg-like face.

"This skill... is just too perverted!"

In his heart, a monstrous wave had already been stirred up.

This girl named Li Murou, one day ago.

Was still a poor little thing who couldn't find a team and could only work as an intern in the administrative building.

But now, in just one day.

She had been trained by that Chen Xi into this kind of terrifying existence that was almost unsolvable!?

Given enough mental energy, couldn't she, by her own strength, freeze all the monsters in the entire dungeon, thereby allowing the team to achieve a true no-damage speedrun!?

Such a super crowd-control support, let alone being placed in their First-Year University Student team.

Even if placed in the entire Jiang University, or even among all the top teams in the country, she would definitely be a treasure that others would fight tooth and nail to obtain!

Yan Zidong's gaze moved away from the arena, lost in thought.

It slowly fell on the young man not far away, who had been calm from beginning to end, as if everything was under his control.

It seems that this Chen Xi is not the useless trash that Lin Feng described.

To have this level of strength after being trained by him for one day.

It's hard to imagine just how powerful he himself must be!
