Chapter 415 - 296: Victory!_2
"Click, click, click," Lao Tie’s steel arms tightly gripped Lin Zifeng’s hands, preventing her from pulling out the knight’s greatsword that had pierced into his body.
Eight spider claw spikes, at this moment, turned into streaks of afterimages, mercilessly piercing Lin Zifeng’s skin and stabbing into her body.
The spider claws pierced through her torso and clasped her back tightly, pinning her in place.
"Die!"
Lao Tie spat out a word, and then his steel head smashed down.
"Thud, thud, thud," the sound of impact continued without end.
Above Lin Zifeng’s head, red numbers indicating damage kept floating up, and above Lao Tie’s head, likewise, red damage numbers appeared, except the damage he sustained was easily twice as much as his opponent’s!
"Crap! Lucky I had a trick up my sleeve, or I would have been taken out in one fell swoop. By the way, your talent is pretty thick-skinned."
The Holy Knight’s "Eye for an Eye" skill absolutely cannot reflect two hundred percent damage!
Therefore, Lin Zifeng must have obtained some kind of mutated fusion reflective skill or her talent naturally came with a reflective damage effect.
Zi Liyuan had seen the detailed information on his opponent; Lin Zifeng, since entering Dragon Academy, had relied on reflective damage to kill her enemies in nearly every battle.
From the lower ranks all the way to her current Fourth Order Level 100 Peak, she relied on reflective damage for protection.
This only indicated that her talent included a powerful reflective damage ability.
"Holy Light Judg..."
"Get lost!"
Feeling the vast gathering of Holy Light Power so close by, Zi Liyuan instantly activated the "Death Energy Shock" skill that came with the Death Epic set he wore!
"Boom," an explosion sounded, and a wave of death energy instantly struck Lin Zifeng.
Together with Lao Tie, it sent her flying hundreds of meters away, simultaneously interrupting her attempt to cast Holy Light Judgment.
"Roar, roar, roar~!" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The three-headed golden behemoth that had been holding back its anger instantly charged over and began pummeling Lin Zifeng, who was still gripped by Lao Tie, in a furious and brutal punch-up.
"This challenge match is over, the victor is first-year Zi Liyuan!"
A gentle, pale green energy instantly swept across the entire arena.
The epic beast, Spectral Dragon, was directly pushed away by this force, taking along Lao Tie, who was controlling Lin Zifeng, and forcibly moved them to Zi Liyuan’s side.
The headmaster of Dragon Academy, at some point, appeared next to Lin Zifeng, his hand emitting a soft blue light that he channeled into her body, almost in the blink of an eye, healing the wounds made by Lao Tie.
"Well done, go and rest."
The headmaster patted Lin Zifeng’s shoulder, her brow not even frowning despite the eight gaping wounds her enemy had made on her body.
The willpower of Lin Zifeng, this young girl, was truly formidable.
"Headmaster, I failed to complete the task you entrusted to me, Zifeng..."
"Don’t take it to heart, facing a monster like Zi Liyuan, you’ve done your best."
Patting Lin Zifeng’s loose hair, the headmaster comforted her, and then with a gentle push, sent her off the platform.
Turning his head to look at Zi Liyuan, the headmaster fell into silence for a moment.
He truly hadn’t expected this fellow’s luck to be so defying, easily solving Lin Zifeng’s defense with the overlay of the Aging Curse.
He also hadn’t expected that Lin Zifeng’s final strike would be blocked by the puppet following Zi Liyuan.
You must know that with that burst of power, the damage had broken through 220 million points!
Just a touch on Zi Liyuan would have been enough to obliterate him on the spot.
Even at the final moment, this fellow could rely on his equipment to instantly release skills that interrupted spellcasting, thoroughly outmaneuvering Lin Zifeng.
Little freak!
"Did you feel a bit stifled in that great battle?"
After a long silence, the headmaster spoke again.
"Not at all; I just stood by and watched the show, feeling quite at ease."
Zi Liyuan shrugged his shoulders, imitating Bronzebeard’s manner, with his hands spread and an expression of helplessness as if to say, he hadn’t even exerted himself when his opponent was already down.
What frustration? He was almost a spectator throughout, never having fought such a relaxed battle.

"Do you realize that with the way you’re chatting, you might not see tomorrow’s sun?"
A mischievous smile appeared in the principal of Dragon Academy’s eyes.
"Don’t scare me, old man, I’m faint-hearted and can’t take a fright. Otherwise, if I do something wrong later, you’ll have to wipe my ass, won’t you?"
Zi Liyuan patted his chest, pretending to be shocked.
However, quietly, he had snapped two pictures and sent them to the principal of Dragon Academy, immediately causing his face to stiffen.
One picture was of the super bomb’s specs, thoughtfully marked with the damage numbers it could cause.
The other was a screenshot of the number of super bombs stacked up: actually not that many, just about thirty.
But if those things were to explode, they could instantly turn Dragon Arena into nothing but debris!
As for the group of teachers and students currently leaving the arena, without special protection, massive casualties were inevitable.
All in all, Zi Liyuan was merely showing off his boredom, letting the principal of Dragon Academy know that he hadn’t played all his cards in this challenge match.
If he wanted to settle the matter with Lin Zifeng, the eggshell-thin Holy Knight, he had plenty of ways.
"Alright, you are a monster; just don’t mess around with those high-powered bombs."
With a sigh, the principal of Dragon Academy had initially wanted to teach him a lesson to maintain a good attitude but kept getting surprised by the cards up his sleeve.
"After tomorrow’s challenge match, come to my office. I have something for you and some matters to entrust to you."
If he couldn’t teach him a lesson, then he would simply clear up what needed to be said, giving him a clear understanding to avoid detours in the Sea of Realms.
"Okay, sure!"
Zi Liyuan put on an obedient smile and immediately nodded in agreement.
Being called aside by the principal of Dragon Academy was certainly good news.
"You little rascal, never mind, I can’t manage you anymore. Take care of yourself."
With another sigh, the principal of Dragon Academy vanished in front of him.
"Off he goes..."
As soon as the principal of Dragon Academy left, the danger signals continuously sent in Spirit immediately dissipated, relieving Zi Liyuan immensely.
As Blue Star’s acknowledged strongest, the pressure was truly immense, suffocating him so much he dared not even breathe deeply.
At Dragon Academy, First Year District, Zhuangyuan Manor.
"We’re rich, we’re rich! I didn’t expect the third-year seniors to be so loaded, a whole double than the second-year seniors. I wonder how much loot the fourth-year seniors will bring tomorrow."
Lying in the spiritual pool, Zi Liyuan was taking out his guiding jade tablet to check the Contribution Value info he had reaped.
Over ten million Contribution Value had come in yesterday, and today it was over twenty million.
Easily fighting two leisurely matches, the previously exhausted Contribution Value had swiftly filled up again.
"Come on, everyone, gather around, time for the loot split."
With a shout, Zi Liyuan summoned all the beauties swimming in the spiritual pool to his side.
One million Contribution Value each, including Sikong You without exception.
"Little Youyou, how come you haven’t reached Third Order yet?"
After distributing some of the spoils, Zi Liyuan’s gaze fell on Sikong You.
This legally adult lolita had great talent; he had brought her in from the Heretical Sect with the plan to train her into his enforcer.
Who would have thought, after such a long time, this girl had only reached Second Order Level 50, clearly slacking off!
You must know, Shen Yurou had prepared special equipment and props for silver tier hero advancement for everyone, along with a detailed guide through the process.
Basically, their success rate for passing the Third Order hero advancement quest was as high as ninety percent!
"I... I’m getting used to the assassin’s fighting style. My strength has grown too fast, and I’m not adept at handling it."
Speaking, Sikong You lowered her head, her gaze towards Zi Liyuan carrying a fearful expression.
Initially, he had mercilessly killed everyone in the base and wiped them out clean.
She herself was snatched by him and forced to sign a Boundary Sea Contract, a kind of servitude agreement.
Therefore, she was very fearful of Lord Zi.
