On Arena No. 38.
A gentle breeze blew past, causing Yu Xiyan's white dress to flutter. A gentle smile hung on her lips.
She was graceful and poised, making the hearts of many in the audience skip a beat.
It was the feeling of a first love's white moonlight!
The mont they saw her, the crowd had already figured out what to na their children!
Across from her, Chiyue Honglian was dressed in combat attire.
Though she lacked a young girl's softness, she had an added air of competence. Paired with her tall figure and the long white hair that cascaded to her waist, she looked heroic and badass, appealing to everyone!
It drew shouts from the girls in the crowd, declaring that they were up for it too!
The two of them appearing at the sa ti was a perfect case of White Moonlight vs.
Red Rose!
Beautiful won were already a resource that drew everyone's attention, let alone two of them about to clash. The excitent instantly soared!
"This woman is as weird as they say.
My Abyss-type ocular art can't find the slightest trace of her!" Chiyue Honglian's expression was grave; she was quite wary of Yu Xiyan.
Thinking back carefully, she discovered the problem.
Although Yu Xiyan had won every match so far, she had never once summoned a pet beast!
Every ti, her opponent's pet beast would be mysteriously injured, or faint, having suffered so unknown heavy blow, and be directly eliminated.
It was as if a bullet from the past had shot them in the present!
And Yu Xiyan was in control of it all!
If not for the fact that Yu Xiyan's registered information listed her as Fate-type, the referees would have thought the woman had bribed her opponents and nearly applied for an investigation!
But after a few Scions of Great Clans were eliminated in the sa way, the referees' wariness of Yu Xiyan reached its peak!
Against an opponent who could sche with fate, you wouldn't even know how you died!
'So it's not Chiyue ng.
Ever since Lu Yu arrived, most of the futures on the arena have changed. What terrifying Absolute Correctness…'
Yu Xiyan smiled as she looked at Chiyue Honglian.
Just as the other girl was about to lose her patience from the staring, she suddenly turned her head to look in Lu Yu's direction, waved, and said:
"Lu Yu, can you cheer for ?"
Her smile was sweet, and her navy blue eyes were filled with anticipation, like a shy girl in love, breaking countless hearts.
"It's Lu Yu again.
Damn it, it's one thing for that guy to have good talent, but how is his luck in love so strong too? Can't he leave so opportunities for us ordinary people?!"
"Yu Xiyan is originally from Great Abyss City High School. It's normal for them to know each other.
Besides, Lu Yu is handso, has good moral character, and is powerfully talented. They might even be childhood sweethearts.
If I were a girl, I'd also want to ask him to be Happy to Pillar People!"
"You could cross-dress as a woman!"
"…That's not out of the question, as long as he can accept it!"
"…"
The crowd buzzed with discussion. Aside from envy, they didn't have many other feelings.
The live comnts were also mostly joking.
After all, even without Lu Yu, such an excellent girl wouldn't look their way.
On the contrary, Lu Yu, with his grassroots origins, winning the beauty's heart, gave them a better sense of imrsion.
It was a kind of joy, a nurturing-type of feeling!
So people even felt that if their own son could be this excellent in the future, they would go and die…
On second thought, no!
Descendants will have their own fortunes, I'll enjoy my own first!
"You'll suffer a huge loss if you only look at her face!" Qi Wei listened to the surrounding discussions and shook his head, looking like soone with past experience.
After all, he too had been attracted by his cousin's beauty back then, couldn't resist confessing, and ended up starting his current miserable life!
After this period of hellish training, he could no longer feel a single trace of beauty from Yu Xiyan.
All that was left was the feeling of being devoid of the will to live.
He even had psychological trauma about won now!
Moreover, Yu Xiyan was only this gentle in front of Lu Yu. At all other tis, she was terrifyingly black-bellied!
Love? Not even a dog would want it!
It would be better to be the man behind Lu Yu, to hide one's achievents and fa!
Thinking of this, Qi Wei decisively took out his phone, went online, and bet his entire fortune on Yu Xiyan in the newly opened betting pool!
Snarking was one thing, but his cousin's strength was still unquestionable!
Whether he could get rich and buy the latest Miniature Spiritual Energy Cara to continue filming Lu Yu, it all depended on today!
On the referee's platform,
"Poor background, beauties by his side, constant fortuitous encounters… he's almost got all the elents of a protagonist from a travelogue novel.
Didn't they say those were all just lies made up by poor boys?" Xiao Ling couldn't help but snark.
"But there are always so freaks who are mandated by Heaven!" Shang Yuguang sighed emotionally.
"Besides, novels need to follow logic, but in reality… have you seen Lu Yu follow any logic?"
Mao Guixian said with a grin, "You guys don't know yet, do you? This Yu Xiyan's opponent is Chiyue Honglian, and her younger sister is also quite close to Lu Yu. This is very likely a Shura Field!"
"Rivers of blood? I love watching won fight the most!" The lazy expression on Li Shu's face was swept away, and he was suddenly interested.
Yue Hao pushed up his glasses and said coolly:
"No matter what, we're still teachers. We need to have so face!"
The other four looked at him in unison, their expressions astonished.
This guy who would die for money over the smallest thing, when did he change his ways?
However, the next mont, Yue Hao pushed forward a phone and said calmly:
"To make it more fun for everyone, I've opened a betting pool. Everyone can place their bets.
I'll just take a tiny little commission!"
"…"
The four fell silent. They were just trash-talking, but this guy had directly beco The House, steadily collecting money!
As expected, Yue Hao was still that sa greedy middle-aged man from before.
Not a single bit had changed!
However, Lu Yu, who was at the center of the storm, was not as comfortable as everyone imagined!
Of course, there was a little bit of secret satisfaction!
But… the deadly question this woman Yu Xiyan had given him was too outrageous!
After all, he was friends with both Chiyue ng and Chiyue Honglian. Cheering for either one would be awkward.
But Yu Xiyan had also just helped him, played a huge role in the Battle for the Defense of Great Abyss City, and hadn't even taken her reward yet. It wouldn't be good to refuse.
So…
"You both have to do your best! I'll treat you to a al when it's over!" Lu Yu said with a smile.
Only children make choices.
He was an adult, so he chose them all!
If he cheered for both of them, it would be fine!
"Hmph, you know what's good for you!"
Chiyue Honglian snorted lightly, but the joy in her heart was already showing on her face.
This counted as encouragent from her future brother-in-law!
She finally wasn't being ignored!
"What a greedy man!" Yu Xiyan's smile didn't fade.
She looked at Chiyue Honglian and suddenly switched to Mind Resonance, saying, "But does he know your true identities?"
"So what if he knows?"
Chiyue Honglian wasn't flustered at all about her identity being seen through. After all, the biggest obstacle to interfering with them was not the Abyss, but the Alliance High Command.
However, this concerned the hope of the Succubus Race, so she frowned and reminded her, "To Pry into Fate is a boon, but also a curse. Knowing too much is not a good thing!"
As her voice fell, the Chubby Chirper that had been lying on her impressive chest was startled awake.
It stood up, the ground beneath its claws sinking slightly. Sparks spread from its body, instantly igniting into crimson flas that enveloped Chiyue Honglian.
Hiss! Hiss!
The scorching heat spread out, distorting the line of sight. The flas danced, continuously forming into crimson armor that covered most of her body.
Fla Rings flowed over it, like blossoming crimson lotuses, and finally ford a pair of huge Fla Wings behind her.
Clack! Clack! Clack!
Her long white hair fluttered, and black-red Abyssal Sparks scattered, continuously striking the defensive ritual!
The Crimson Lotus Valkyrie!
"Such a high temperature!"
"Both sisters of the Chiyue Family are so strong, but how co I feel like I've never heard of this family? Is it because I haven't seen enough of the world?"
"They might be from so Secluded Clan.
They usually only enter the world during an Era of Great Strife, and related information is kept secret!"
"I see… but how do you know so much?"
"I read it in a novel!"
"Oh… huh!?"
"…"
The crowd buzzed with discussion. They didn't expect Chiyue Honglian to have hidden her strength.
With this, Yu Xiyan's hopes of winning were slim!
The epic clash, was it going to end before it even began?
"Being rich really lets you do whatever you want!" Lu Yu was also envious.
The last ti they t, Chiyue Honglian was only at Peak Gold Rank, but now she had successfully advanced to Early Morning Star Rank!
This promotion speed was also at a monster level!
This wasn't just a difference in talent; the most crucial thing was having money.
Otherwise, just collecting enough Prival Copper would take a lot of ti.
The only drawback was that the Abyssal Red Sparrow hadn't entered the Celestial Phoenix Nest yet, so it had no chance to find materials for promotion and undergo a qualitative change!
Otherwise, she would have been a formidable opponent!
But even now, aside from himself and the one with the Law Seed, no one could say they could win against her for sure!
As for Yu Xiyan, her chances were also slim, unless she chose to use the power of Fate!
But she could already enroll steadily.
With her calculating style, she probably wouldn't force a fight.
"Crimson Lotus War God, Burn All Things!"
The dancing flas were reflected in Yu Xiyan's navy blue eyes, revealing the madness within.
This ti, she was not planning to retreat!
Rustle, rustle!
Behind her, the sound of a Tributary of the River of Fate echoed, and a Black Shadow, invisible to the naked eye, quietly erged.
"What is that woman doing?"
Although Chiyue Honglian couldn't see the phantom of the River of Fate, her intuition began to warn her.
Thinking of the examinees who had been defeated in strange ways before, she knew she couldn't wait.
She had to go for a quick battle, quick resolution.
Chiyue Honglian raised a hand, and a vortex of flas coiled around it, quickly forming a black-red Fla Spear that burned everything!
'Secret Art—World-Scorching Crimson Lotus Spear!'
Chiyue Honglian was extrely wary of Yu Xiyan.
So she went all out from the very beginning!
Boom!
As the sound of a space-quake reverberated and a shockwave ring surged, the Fla Spear shot forward like a teor, like a roaring Dragon of Abyssal Vilefire!
If it hit, everything would turn to ashes!
"Starting with a Profound aning Skill, isn't that a bit too brutal!"
"As expected, won are vicious when they fight!"
"Is this the end?"
"…"
The crowd sighed, and so even turned their heads, unable to bear watching the next scene.
The other examinees also felt the difference in worlds. Compared to these geniuses, they were practically living like dogs!
So were inspired with fighting spirit, wanting to chase after these prodigies, while others resigned themselves to their fate, just wanting to graduate from Imperial Capital University and go back to be local tyrants…
"These little fellows are really not making things easy!"
The five teachers had also summoned their respective pet beasts, ready to rescue at any mont!
Hum!
Yu Xiyan watched this scene quietly.
The Trapezohedron buried in her chest pulsed with a faint light, and the 【Fate ssenger】 began to turn.
From that Black Shadow of fate, a wobbly Paper Airplane flew out and crashed into the oncoming World-Scorching Crimson Lotus Spear.
Rumble!
The two collided, and a terrifying impact force erupted instantly!
However, just as the crimson lotus phantom turned into red light and was about to bloom, it was suddenly tapped by a slender, fair palm!
The next mont, an endless tide of water surged forth, instantly subrging all the flas!
The water churned, flooding the arena. Blocked by the defensive ritual, it didn't spread out, but instead ford a huge vortex!
"What!?"
Chiyue Honglian's pupils suddenly shrank.
The Abyss Fire around her swept out, instantly evaporating a large amount of water, turning it into steam.
But there was simply too much water.
She could only temporarily avoid the brunt of the attack, flapping her wings to rise into the air and dodge the surging water.
Drip, drop! Drip, drop!
Raindrops began to fall.
Chiyue Honglian looked up into the air, only to find that the sky had, at so point, beco overcast, and a light rain had begun to fall!
It grew heavier and heavier, and soon turned into a downpour!
Yu Xiyan stood on a water platform condensed from the vortex, and a mysterious figure appeared beside her.
It was a demonic beast with the lower body of a black-gold serpent tail and the upper body of a woman, similar to a Jiao-ren, but even more beautiful.
Its ten-ter-long serpent tail was coiled, sitting on the vortex. Black water flowed around it, emitting an aura like that of an Undersea Abyss!
Although her face was obscured by the flowing water, one could tell from her figure that she was an absolute beauty.
As for her strength… she was also an Early Morning Star Rank!
This scene directly caused the live comnts to explode, triggering a heated discussion.
Lu Yu was also a little surprised, because he could see that Yu Xiyan was only at the Spirituality Transformation stage, yet she was commanding an Early Morning Star Rank demonic beast.
Could this be another ability of the Fate-type?
Was it necessary to fight so hard in a harmless battle?
"Aren't the ones who command storms supposed to be Sirens or rmaids? What's with the snake-person?"
Chiyue Honglian was also a bit confused and couldn't imdiately identify the serpent-person before her.
"Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent!"
However, Yu Xiyan said her na, her gaze profound.
"Abyss? You an a Sea Abyss, right? A great serpent that can swallow a Sea Abyss, that's indeed a good na!"
Chiyue Honglian murmured softly. Although there was an elental counter, it didn't make her feel fear.
Instead, she grew more excited.
"Water can extinguish fire, but fire can also boil the sea!"
Chiyue Honglian flapped her wings, her figure turning into a red stream of light.
Her body flickered, and she darted dozens of ters away.
The spot where she had been was pierced by nurous water guns, which crisscrossed to form a huge cage!
High-tier Skill—Black Water Cage!
Yu Xiyan didn't give any commands.
The Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent beside her raised a fair arm and waved it casually!
Swish, swish, swish!
The vortex churned, and from it erged water elental serpents, baring their nearly transparent fangs and biting at Chiyue Honglian from all directions!
Crack, crack, crack!
Chiyue Honglian continuously dodged, and at the sa ti, one after another, 【World-Scorching Crimson Lotus Spears】 roared out, shattering the water serpents and plunging into the boiling vortex!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The boiling Abyss Fire exploded, creating one water pillar after another. A large amount of steam was generated, shrouding the entire arena!
The high-temperature water vapor contained the power to scald everything, surging towards Yu Xiyan.
Hum!
However, the mont it got close, it was blocked by a ghostly blue water shield!
The half-woman, half-serpent Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent extended a finger and tapped lightly!
The water vapor condensed, forming chains that wound towards Chiyue Honglian.
However, the opponent's movent speed was faster, making it very difficult to defeat her!
'High-tier Skill—Black Water Vortex!'
'High-tier Skill—Cloud and Mist Lockdown!'
'Super-tier Skill—Tidal Judgnt!'
'Combination Secret Art—Black Water Apocalypse!'
The Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent attacked, and it was a Secret Art from the start.
The vast black water swept over, like God's great flood to destroy the world, subrging everything!
It could easily flood a town outside, let alone on the restricted arena.
The huge tsunami, carrying endless montum, crashed forward.
If it hit, even steel would be instantly deford!
"This is troubleso!"
Seeing this, Chiyue Honglian knew she couldn't hold back anymore. Her figure paused in mid-air, and the Fla Wings behind her retracted, taking on the form of a crimson lotus.
However, this ti it was not blooming, but returning to a bud form!
The scorching hot flas were continuously compressed and refined. Through its own extre high temperature, it gained terrifying defensive power!
Secret Art—Reverse-Ti Crimson Lotus!
Hiss! Hiss!
The tsunami crashed down hard, but it didn't break Chiyue Honglian.
Instead, a huge hole was burned right through it!
"World-Scorching Crimson Lotus Spear!"
Chiyue Honglian attacked again, and the Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent also raised its hand, manipulating the water waves to continuously bombard her!
Because of the lesson learned from Lu Yu before, the referee, even at the cost of being wasteful, had already turned the power of several key defensive rituals to the maximum, enough to withstand a high-tier Morning Star attack!
It wasn't that they didn't want to raise it higher!
It was just that the machine's limit was here!
Crack, crack, crack!
Faced with the continuous clash of water and fire, the entire defensive ritual also made sounds of being overwheld, but fortunately, it barely held on!
"What kind of deep-seated hatred do these two won have? Why are they fighting so fiercely?"
"Oh no, I bet my entire fortune on Chiyue Honglian to win. I'm not going to fail spectacularly now, am I?!"
"It's fine, gambling addicts deserve a horrible death!"
"…"
Although it wasn't as visually impactful as Lu Yu's instant kill, such an extre clash of attributes was still incredibly shocking.
The five teachers were also dumbfounded. Although they knew there were many geniuses this year, they didn't expect there to be this many!
If they were thrown into this cohort, they felt it would be hard to even get into the top ten!
"This is going to be trouble!"
Luo Zisong, on the other hand, was a bit worried, because he knew about Chiyue ng's feelings for Lu Yu, and Yu Xiyan was even more obsessed.
He had been quite satisfied with his own granddaughter before, but looking at her now… she was a complete noob!
She didn't even have the qualifications to join the Shura Field; she might be shaken to death by accident!
How embarrassing!
"So strong!" While Qi Wei was shocked, he also had a question: "Where on earth did my cousin get all these weird demonic beasts…"
Why was it that every pet beast Yu Xiyan summoned just happened to counter her opponent?
And their appearances were also sowhat similar…
The battle between the two continued. Although Chiyue Honglian, like Chiyue ng, had high-level shielding skills on her, which Yu Xiyan couldn't calculate, her own accumulated combat experience from hundreds of millions of battles made her tactical skills grandmaster-level.
Under continuous pressure, she soon sealed off Chiyue Honglian's escape route.
After seizing an opening, she used 【Secret Art—Black Water Apocalypse】 to knock her to the edge of the arena.
The referee, who was already at a safe distance below the stage, saw this and imdiately announced:
"The victor is… Yu Xiyan!"
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Thunderous applause erupted from the entire audience, showing their approval of the exciting battle between the two.
Compared to an instant kill, this was much more entertaining to watch!
"Damn it!" Although Chiyue Honglian was extrely unwilling, she had truly been defeated head-on!
She wasn't a sore loser, but…
to fight in a Shura Field for her sister and still lose, it was too embarrassing!
Chiyue Honglian saw that the spot where Chiyue ng had been was now empty, and her heart ached with self-bla:
'She must be very disappointed in such a useless sister…'
But the next mont, she saw her own sister right next to Lu Yu.
She had closed the distance, they were almost sticking together, and she was poking Lu Yu with her finger.
"This feels pretty good!"
As a new-age youth with a body full of tally marks, Lu Yu decisively turned his body so that the President could massage other places.
He had repeatedly warned the President that n and won shouldn't be so close, especially not touching the place for weapon polishing.
But the President… just looked at him with innocent eyes, as if she didn't understand anything, and then continued to go deeper, bit by bit.
'Huh? Is the President pretending to be stupid?' Lu Yu was a little suspicious.
Forget it, he'd deal with everything after he finished enjoying this!
Others might not have noticed, but Chiyue Honglian, being a succubus herself, discovered that Chiyue ng was using her own bodily fluids and aura to slowly cover up the other scents!
Succubi often use this thod to mark their territory, warning other females not to get close!
Feeling Chiyue Honglian's gaze, Chiyue ng subconsciously looked up, her eyes dazed, as if asking:
"Is it over?"
"…"
Chiyue Honglian clutched her heart, feeling as if she had been hit by a ten-thousand-ton blow.
She was fighting for her life on the arena, while her sister was flirting with a man below!
In the end, she didn't even pay attention to the outco!
This is too much!
"Chiyue ng!"
Seeing this, Yu Xiyan was not angry. Her expression was calm as she softly recited the other's na.
The Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent beside her also slowly faded, disappearing from everyone's sight.
However, from Yu Xiyan's perspective, it had always been there, never having left!
Rustle!
The water obscuring the Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent's face dispersed, revealing a face highly similar to Yu Xiyan's, but the edges of her face were covered in small, colorful serpent scales, adding a touch of demonic charm.
It opened its mouth, made a "hissing" sound, and said in a hoarse voice:
"…Lu… Yu…"
The voice was tired, yet filled with a strong sense of attachnt!
"Why don't you let him see you?" Yu Xiyan asked.
"…Aberration… ugly… don't want him to see…" The Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent's eyes dimd as it slowly spoke.
It was only a few words, but with its current vocal cord structure, it was extrely difficult to say.
Its navy blue serpent pupils looked at Yu Xiyan, and it said softly:
"It's… up to you now…"
The mont it spoke, more dark figures erged from behind the Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent, and they were constantly spreading, densely packed, filling the entire world in the blink of an eye.
Figures of all strange shapes and kinds were silently watching Yu Xiyan!
They… were the Yu Xiyans from other fate tributaries, the embodint of every possibility.
And the Abyss-Swallowing Great Serpent was the possibility of Yu Xiyan from a certain future, who had walked the path of a water-type beast tar, but ultimately failed and underwent aberration.
In the Sea Abyss, her reason quietly shattered completely, and she beca a new Aberrant Body!
And every ti Yu Xiyan used them, she was accelerating their demise!
The other figures were the sa; on the path of chasing Lu Yu, they had all failed!
Having lost the concept of absolute correctness, they may or may not exist!
Now, connected through the 【Fate ssenger】 talent, they were being used by Yu Xiyan!
Her pet beasts… had always been herself!
However, faced with the expectations of countless versions of herself, Yu Xiyan showed a lazy smile and said coolly:
"I refuse!"
"A bunch of losers are not qualified to tell what to do!"
As her voice fell, the corners of all the figures' mouths curled up, and they shattered with a boom. Yu Xiyan also returned to reality.
She glanced at the "pushing her luck" Chiyue ng, and continued to fight, accumulating points.
For the top ten, the higher the ranking, the better the reward from Imperial Capital University!
The arena battles continued.
Even late into the night, there were still more than a thousand people left!
After coasting on easy wins for a long ti, Lu Yu finally t a formidable opponent!
A 6,300-character chapter, asking for monthly tickets. Too sleepy, will fix typos after I wake up tomorrow.
