Chapter 96

Meng Yunxin flashed, holding a dagger in her hand, continuously cutting the vines. However, the vines kept growing endlessly, extending continuously.

Meng Yunxin jumped onto the golden griffin and cast fire magic instantly, and the vines were soon ablaze.

Su Hua was fighting with Duan Yiran while seeing this scene from the corner of her eye. She casually cast water magic, and the fire disappeared instantly.

Ye Xi immediately launched a magic spell, “Wooden Spikes.”

“Roar!”

The golden griffin spat out a fireball, burning the wooden spikes clean.

“Well done,” Meng Yunxin praised.

“Roar.”

The golden griffin, happy, spat out another large fireball.

Su Hua flicked her hand, and the fire disappeared completely.

“What kind of magic is this?”

Su Huai looked at Ye Xi.

“Continue yours; don’t stop.”

“Roar.”

The golden griffin, angry, pounced towards Su Hua.

Su Hua flicked her hand to extinguish the fire and then swung her sword towards the golden griffin.

A powerful airflow swept towards the golden griffin. Meng Yunxin was startled and immediately cast a magic spell in front of the golden griffin, “Fire Shield.”

“Bang!”

The sword’s energy directly leaped over the fire shield and slashed the golden griffin.

Blood flowed immediately.

“Roar!”

On the other side, Duan Yiran finished his incantation, “Meteor Fall!”

Countless large rocks flew towards Su Hua and Ye Xi.

Ye Xi quickly cast a wooden net to block, and Meng Yunxin, seeing this, cast lightning magic again, striking directly at Ye Xi.

“Earth Shield.”

“Fire Shield.”

Several protective magics simultaneously protected Su Hua and Ye Xi. Su Hua jumped away and said, “Wrath of the Thunder God.”

“Boom!”

Seeing this, Meng Yunxin also immediately cast Wrath of the Thunder God.

For a while, the sound of thunder continued to echo.

After fifteen minutes, Ye Xi and Duan Yiran were both somewhat exhausted, constantly depleting their elemental reserves and almost running out.

Only Su Hua and Meng Yunxin seemed to use magic without needing elements, as if they didn’t need to chant incantations, continuously releasing powerful magic attacks on each other.

Su Hua, seeing this, took up her sword again, blocking Meng Yunxin’s magic with her sword.

The dazzling magic disappeared one by one under the crimson sword.

Meng Yunxin saw Su Hua approaching and gave up using magic, switching her dagger for a broadsword.

“Ding!”

The blades clashed.

Meng Yunxin felt her fingers go numb, especially at the tiger mouth, as if they were bleeding.

(T/N: The tiger mouth is located on the hand in the web between the thumb and index finger, also described as the depression where the index finger and thumb bones part.)

How could someone have such strength?

Meng Yunxin took a few steps back, but Su Hua seemed unaffected. The next attack had already fallen, and Meng Yunxin dodged it in a sorry state, her eyes filled with shock and unwillingness.

She was trained as a special agent, unmatched in killing. But now, she was being pushed back step by step by Su Hua’s swordsmanship.

“Bang!”

Without warning, Meng Yunxin was kicked by Su Hua and fell to the ground.

On the other side, Duan Yiran wanted to come over to help, but he was trapped tightly by Ye Xi’s wood magic. As for the golden griffin, Meng Yunxin had already put it into her space when it was injured.

Meng Yunxin looked at Su Hua as she walked towards her, feeling resentful. Since crossing over, she has never been in such a sorry state.

“Yunxin, let me out.” The voice of the dragon came from space.

“No, my strength is not enough now. I can’t let people discover you.”

The space and Zijin were her biggest cards. She absolutely couldn’t let anyone discover them.

The sword was pointed at her neck, and Meng Yunxin knew she had lost.

Duan Yiran had also been trapped by Ye Xi’s vines.

“Yao Hua Ye Xi wins! Rest for fifteen minutes and proceed to the final match.”

Cheers of victory erupted from the crowd, mixed with some lamentation. Of course, they weren’t cheering for Su Hua; they were merely celebrating their correct bets.

In the highest spectator stands,

Emperor Qi sat on the golden dragon throne, asking, “Did you see clearly?”

An old voice echoed faintly into his ears, freezing him in place.

“Space displacement, this is a power only possessed by the God of Magic.”

The God of Magic! The legendary God of Magic!

It was said that the most powerful skill of the God of Magic was space displacement, transferring all attacks to other spaces.

Emperor Qi had previously been skeptical but dared not believe it.

Thinking back on everything he had done before, Emperor Qi couldn’t help but feel a chill. He had actually offended a God of Magic.

“Hua Hua, you were really amazing just now,” Zhou Yuke, as straightforward as always, asked.

“How did you do it? How did you make the magic disappear instantly?”

Su Hua looked at her steadily, and Zhou Yuke paused, cautiously asking, “What’s wrong, Hua Hua?”

“Well.”

Su Hua’s expression became serious.

Zhou Yuke, Mu Ye, and Ye Xi, who had come down together, unconsciously straightened their spines, quietly listening to what she would say next.

“…I’m a fairy.”

The three of them: “…”

Hehe, host, you’re such a funny monkey sent to entertain me.

[You have blocked the system De’er.]

Host, what else can you do besides blocking?

Can you fight me?

The system recalled the feeling of being hit by that kitchen knife and immediately dared not speak anymore.

In the following match, Ye Xi probably made a move and then surrendered. In the end, as announced personally by Emperor Qi, the champion of the Tri-Nation Tournament was Yao Hua from Xuanyun Academy.

The competition ended.

The final six students were all going to the palace to attend the banquet.

Su Hua naturally couldn’t leave Mu Ye alone in the inn, so after a short rest, she took Mu Ye and the mentors to the palace.

As for Mu Ye, the mentors all pretended not to notice anything.

The dean sent a message to them, reminding them to take good care of Su Hua and not to offend her. Secretly, they had already dispatched experts to protect them.

Arriving at the palace, the chief eunuch personally came to welcome them. Apart from Su Hua and Meng Yunxin, there were also two mentors, for a total of five people.

On the side of Baiqi Academy were Duan Yiran, Wen Yuqi, and two mentors.

Su Hua held Mu Ye’s hand, ignoring the covert glances from others and remaining indifferent.

Arriving at Jingde Palace, there were already quite a few people inside, all princesses, princes, or important courtiers. Su Hua immediately spotted Zhou Yuke, accompanied by a handsome man around twenty-five years old.

Presumably, he was the brother she often mentioned.

“Hua Hua.”

After taking her seat in her designated position, Zhou Yuke couldn’t wait and walked over, whispering, “Your position is quite prominent. Does His Majesty have something planned for you?”

Indeed, Su Hua was seated in the second position on the left, which was quite prominent.

The first position on the left was occupied by the Crown Prince, and the first position on the right was occupied by the head of the three major families, the Hao family master.

The second position on the left was Su Hua and Mu Ye, and the second position on the right was Meng Yunxin and Ye Xi, while the mentors and others were seated far behind.

“No matter what he does, this fairy has no fear.”

“…”

Is the fairy joke not getting old?

“The Emperor arrives.”

A eunuch’s sharp voice came from outside the door, and Zhou Yuke hurriedly returned to her seat.
