Chapter 297: The Debut of Extraordinary Magic Network
Not only them, even the officers in themand room were stunned, whether it was Lei Bo, who supported Luo Shuang, Xie Yufei, who supported Lin Xiao, or those generals with golden stars on their shoulders.
No, it would be more urate to say they were shocked.
Even these True Gods couldn’t imagine before the summoning that Lin Xiao would summon these creatures. Even with the wildest imaginations, they never thought they would see a scene where a student at this level would summon over a hundred thousand Rank 7 Giant Elite Water Elements in an instant. This was beyond their knowledge, unprecedented.
“Fuck, what did I just see?”
An elite from the military couldn’t help rubbing his eyes and asked hispanion loudly, his face full of disbelief.
“I think I saw… a lot of elite Water Elements?”
His tone was one of skepticism.
“You’re not seeing things, he really did summon many elite Water Elements.”
Wu Zhonglin also had a hint of shock in his eyes and was full of confusion; this was just too abnormal.
He had always been considered the exceptional child in the eyes of other parents, the freak in others’ eyes. But no matter how freaky he was, it wasn’t to this extent, right? A hundred thousand elite Water Elements is equivalent to a hundred thousand Rank 7 High Transcendents – what concept is this?<div>
Even the prodigies from the regr rankings might not be this powerful, right?
Putting aside their shock, at this moment on the battlefield, the summoning of over a hundred thousand elite Water Elements filled the entire battlefield. Water Elementals of this grade naturally possess a radiating force field that automatically gathers surrounding hydro energy. What concept would it be when so many elite Water Elements gather?
The entire Elemental ne’s Water Elements began to converge towards this area. From a distance, it appeared as though a vast expanse of blue light was converging here; the whole world seemed to be covered by blue Water Elements.
The moisture in the air visibly increased at a rate that could be seen with the naked eye, from damp to wet, then mist rose, and turned into liquid dew. Countless droplets of dew converged to form water. In just a short ten minutes or so before the two sides engaged in battle, the convergence of moisture from the entire ne formed a water domain centered around these hundred thousand elite Water Elements, rapidly expanding and submerging the battlefield.
This natural change, akin to a natural disaster, forced Luo Shuang’s troops to halt. Arge number of Priests and Mages had to bestow underwater breathing spells and the like on them; otherwise, once submerged, they would all drown.
Even the Terrifying Dragon Tribe was no exception. The creature was indeed huge, but as purend-dwellers, they couldn’t swim. Usually, with its size, even entering the sea couldn’t drown it; but now, the endless pure water controlled by the enemy rendered its height useless.
Within a short ten or so minutes, a vast man-made ocean took shape. Luo Shuang stood in mid-air with his mouth slightly open, looking at the submerged battlefield and his n members struggling futilely in the water, his face filled with helplessness.
This move waspletely unexpected for him. Originally, upon seeing a hundred thousand Rank 7 Elf Water Elements, he had a premonition that he would lose; but before he could even make a move, just the natural change naturally produced by the gathering of so many giant Water Elements rendered him helpless.
There was absolutely no way to fight. If it were just a in water domain or swamp, they could still have a go, but this sea controlled by the enemy, as if it had a life of its own…
“How can we fight this?”
Lei Bo, the leader of the Nirvana Battle Group, mmed his hands on the table, startling the other officers. He turned to Xie Yufei with a look of frustration:
“Damn it, where did you find this kind of freak? What kind of cheating move is this? How can we fight this?”
At this moment, even Xie Yufei herself was a bit confused. The earth-shattering battle she had envisioned hadn’t even started, and it seemed like they were about to win. This was simply…
So exhrating!
And hearing Lei Bo’s annoyed table-mming, she ced her hands on her hips and burst into heartyughter:
“Don’t worry about whether it’s cheating or not, your guy brought out that huge Terrifying Dragon n member, isn’t that also cheating? If you can make your guy fight without the Terrifying Dragon, then my little… well, that’s forter. I won this round, hand it over!”
One hand on her hip, she stretched out her fair, slender hand with a justified air.
“Fuck, you just got lucky.”
“What luck? This is skill, this is power. How about next time we don’t use this move and let them fight again?”<div>
“Do you think I’m an idiot?”
“Idiot.”
…
Inside the challenge space, the ocean had already fully formed, turning into a massive pure water sphere over ten kilometers in diameter. As the mountains copse and the tsunamies crashing down, Luo Shuang spreads his hands with a face of helpless eptance that signifies concession.<div>
He wasn’t someone who couldn’t ept defeat; if he lost, he lost, without any nagging thoughts of usations like cheating. Instead, he was very curious and asked:
“Is this your trump card then?”
Lin Xiao was silent for a moment, then nodded:
“You could say that.”
“What do you mean ‘you could say that’? Don’t tell me you have other trump cards?”
“Yeah.”
“Fuck! I’m done fighting.”
Although he had lost, Luo Shuang wasn’t too desperate. Lin Xiao’s move was abnormal, but not unsolvable; it was just that this first time was too sudden, and he was caught off guard without any preparation.
First of all, through his observation, the Small Fishman in Lin Xiao’s n summoned these elite Water Elements and immediately copsed in the water afterward, which meant these ordinary nsmen summoned the elite Water Elements through some special method at the cost of overexertion, and they were powerless after summoning.
Also, summoned elements like these could be dispersed through banishment spells.
Moreover, summoned elements generally have a duration, after which they automatically return to the Elemental ne.
Taking these three points into ount, if they came prepared next time, he felt it wouldn’t be unmanageable.
But since he lost this time, he promptly chose to surrender without any reluctance to dy.<div>
Upon exiting the Divine Realm Login Cabin, Lin Xiao clearly noticed a change in how the elite officers looked at him. Gone were the various eager intentions to challenge; instead, they were reced with acknowledgment and respect.
Luo Shuang emerged from the Divine Realm Login Cabin and stretched out his hand with a brightugh:
“Your trump card is quite powerful, I think there’s a codename that suits you well, Water God, you can call yourself Water God.”
Wu Zhonglin immediately nodded and said:
“That codename is not bad, it just so happens that no one on the List of Young Geniuses is using it, it fits you.”
Lin Xiao: …..
“Cough, I don’t think that’s very good.”
He immediately vetoed it.
The title of Water God wasn’t prestigious enough, and summoning Water Elements wasn’t really his trump card; besides, the codename sounded odd.
They certainly weren’t going to fuss over that, as Luo Shuang cast a suggestive nce at Wu Zhonglin and said:
“Old Wu, didn’t you say you wanted to have a match with him? We’ve finished our fight, now it’s your turn.”
Wu Zhonglinughed and said:
“I know what you’re thinking, but you know what my core race is. Do you think I’d be scared of his summoning Water Elements when I’m prepared for it?”<div>
“Scared or not, we’ll only know after the fight. I’m quite eager to see who is more powerful – the Dragon Emperor, who has been ranking in the top three ever since he entered the secondary list of the Young Geniuses, or this neer who reached the top tier as soon as he got listed,” Luo Shuang said.
“Then let’s do as you wish!”
Wu Zhonglin looked at Lin Xiao, his eyes full of fighting spirit, and Lin Xiao’s gaze matched his own.
He had always been curious about Wu Zhonglin’s strength, what his race was, and what kind of ‘cheat’ he had that allowed him to rank so high on the List of Young Geniuses when he was only Rank 1 – an astonishing feat that in over 30,000 years of the Main World’s history, adding up to fewer than five individuals, which was even rarer than the birth of the Great Divine Power throughout human history.
This curiosity had built up for so long, and today it was finally going to be unraveled.
“All personnel, proceed immediately to the assembly hall! This is not a drill! This is not a drill!”
“All personnel, proceed immediately to the assembly hall! This is not a drill! This is not a drill!”
“All personnel, proceed immediately to the assembly hall! This is not a drill! This is not a drill!”
The urgent call halt everyone in their tracks. Lin Xiao, who was half-stepping into the Divine Realm Login Cabin, paused and raised his head to Wu Zhonglin, who was also preparing to enter the cabin, and spread his hands out, saying:
“What a coincidence, next time then.”
He too shrugged his shoulders and said:
“Indeed, it is unfortunate.”
Meanwhile, the other elite members of the military were already lining up to leave. Luo Shuang was talking loudly as they walked:<div>
“Discipline is paramount in the military; if you don’t want to be punished, it’s best not to bete.”
The two exchanged a smile and quickly followed the others.
Following the group downstairs swiftly, they took a major road to anotherpound, entering a metal structure at the center – the assembly hall.
Upon reaching the second floor, he saw five or six military officers seated on the dais, with Xie Yufei among them.
The group lined up in front of the dais, saluted, and then sat down.
The officers on the dais returned the salute and sat down, a colonel stood up and said:
“It was quite interesting watching you fight, but unfortunately, we just received orders from the Expeditionary Army headquarters. We must depart immediately to the Frontline Fortress, where the contest with the Ivy League Alliance of High Schools will take ce.”
His gaze swept all the elites below as he spoke loudly:
“This operation is your mission for the year, sess is the only option, failure is not. If you win, this year’s mission will be consideredplete; if you fail, ten points will be deducted.”
“You will be informed of the specific rules of the contest when you arrive. Are there any questions now?”
The crowd was silent, and Lin Xiao did not speak either. After waiting for about half a minute with no responses, the major general waved his hand:
“Prepare to depart!”
An invisible force descended upon them, and Lin Xiao felt the space around him warp – he had left the fortress and appeared in a small room aboard a Void Ship. Looking through the porthole, he could see the twisted Void outside as the Void Ship was charging up for teleportation.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
The crisp knocking sounded, and he looked toward the door screen, which showed Xie Yufei and several soldiers.
He opened the door, she gestured for her subordinates to leave first, then walked in with her hands behind her back, a smile spreading across her face:
“I didn’t expect you to be so strong. You’ve earned me some face this time, and as a colonel, I’m very pleased.”
As she spoke, she extended two slender fingers and a sprinkling of starlight converged into a card emitting a rich crystal glow, which she handed over:
“Here you go, I always keep my word. I said if you won, I’d give you a standard Wizard Tower Construction Blueprint, and now it’s yours.”
Lin Xiao didn’t hesitate to take it, thanking her sincerely:
“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.”
“No need for that, you are my man, you earned me face, this is your reward.”
She patted his shoulder and added:
“In future, you will see that as long as you perform well under me, you will not be shortchanged.”
