79: Chapter 20: Summoning, Zi (3) 79: Chapter 20: Summoning, Zi (3) Like the Moon God’s Protection, Green Silk didn’t get stained with any blood.
Perhaps it was because she had just devoured a life, but at that moment, Green Silk’s green color looked even more crystalline.
Its offensive power, parable to that of a Divine Artifact, was fully demonstrated under Zhu Gong’s influence; otherwise, it wouldn’t have caused such a severe injury to Nesta.
With Ye Yinzhu’s current level of Douqi, he wasn’t strong enough to kill a Magical Beast like Machino the Iron Dragon, which had high defense, in one blow.
The might of Green Silk was indispensable.
Struggling to his feet from the ground, Ye Yinzhu staggered a little before he could stand firm.
He looked towards Nesta in the distance and said with a bitter smile, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to kill your dragon.
But if I hadn’t given it my all at that time, I wouldn’t have been able to block your attack at all.”
Nesta had also gotten up by now, and his sturdy body indeed lived up to its reputation.
After wiping the blood from his mouth and nose, he said boldly, “It’s nothing.
In my view, there’s no difference between a petition and a battlefield.
A fight where both sides give their all is the only kind that’s interesting.
It feels good; it’s been a long time since I’ve been injured.”
“You should concede.
Your injuries must be worse than mine,” Ye Yinzhu said.
His admiration for the heavy Cavalry Knight was growing, and he had no desire to launch another attack.
It was his first time using Zhu Yu and Zhu Gong against an enemy, and their power was much greater than he had imagined.
Nesta shook his head and said, “From the perspective of the petition, you’ve killed my mount, and I should have already lost.
However, as long as I still have the strength to fight, I won’t give up.
It seems I must reveal the secret I wanted to save for the finals now.
e out, my panion Di Jia.” As he roared, he raised his left hand high, and a red Hexagram lit up in his palm.
A golden light shot up towards the sky, reaching high altitude in the blink of an eye.
“Contract.” Ye Yinzhu looked at his opponent with some surprise.
He quickly realized, “So you have another mount.
No wonder I felt that your coordination with Machino the Iron Dragon wasn’t very good.”
The mount of a warrior can be replaced, unlike a Mage’s Magical Beasts.
However, a warrior also has only one chance to make a contract with a mount in his lifetime.
A warrior would use this contract only when he truly finds the panion of his heart.
Once the contract is plete, that Magical Beast will acpany him for life.
Only such a contracted mount can municate with its master’s intentions and exert the greatest strength.
Unlike Mages, warriors can’t summon but can only call upon their mounts through a contract.
Generally, a contracted mount will not stray far from its warrior.
A deep and resonant dragon’s roar sounded from the far-off sky.
Within the rolling thunderous noise, a patch of Red Clouds approached rapidly from a distance.
Nesta bowed towards the podium and said, “Please open the Defense Cover, and let my mount e in.” The Defense Cover of the Central Trial Field had been activated under Fergerson’s direction at the beginning of their match.
Fergerson looked at the sky in surprise, subconsciously controlling his Magical Power.
Exercising the authority of a dean, he directly opened the protection.
At this moment, the most surprised was none other than him.
As a Dragon Magic Master, he certainly knew what was flying in from the sky.
It was the same Red Dragon as his own mount Kosa!
Although the aura was far inferior to Kosa, the impression the Red Dragon gave was by no means bad.
As a true Giant dragon, the rank of the Red Dragon was slightly higher than that of the Green Dragon.
He couldn’t help but inwardly marvel that the students of today were getting stronger and stronger.
Nesta, who was only a second-year student, actually had a real Giant dragon.
As all genuine Giant dragons are Growing-Type Magical Beasts, once they mature, they possess strength above the seventh rank.
The Red Dragon is known for its Offensive Power among Fire Attribute Giant dragons, and both its physical attacks and Fire Magic are extremely formidable.
“Iron Arm, after the match, I will need an explanation from you.”
“I will provide one.”
For the first time, Nesta’s eyes showed a gentle light; the Red Cloud in the sky was getting closer and closer.
By now, Ye Yinzhu could see clearly— it was a giant dragon over seven meters long, slightly larger than Roland’s Green Dragon, and obviously growing better too.
Feeling the scorching heat from the Red Dragon, Ye Yinzhu couldn’t help but gasp.
It’s necessary to understand that the reason he had defeated the Green Dragon last time was partly because Roland had already lost his bat capabilities and partly because of his own sudden ambush.
And now, the Red Dragon in front of him was even stronger than the Green Dragon from last time, and with Nesta, a robust fighter, alongside it, how was he to face the uping battle?
For the first time, Ye Yinzhu felt a sense of powerlessness; fighting Dragon Cavalry meant facing more than just one enemy!
The Red Dragon circled the sky once, then suddenly its wings converged and it slowly landed next to Nesta.
Nesta let out a triumphant howl and leapt up, taking his seat upon the broad back of the Red Dragon.
With a wave of his left hand, a brand new spear appeared out of thin air in his grasp.
Although a Space Ring required Magic Power to operate, some of the high-level rings could be used with only a slight exertion of spiritual power.
The spear in Nesta’s hands was even longer than Austin’s Dragon Spear, a full eight meters, surpassing the length of the Red Dragon.
The shaft was dark red with four blood grooves on it, and under the sunlight, the dark red light flowed as if fresh blood was coursing through.
“Ye Yinzhu, this is my true weapon and mount.
The spear is named Blood Soul, and here’s my partner, the Fire-elemental Growing-Type rank 5 Red Dragon – Di Jia.
In the uping battle, I will be using my full strength.
If you have any Magical Beasts, you should summon them now.”
Ye Yinzhu slowly shook his head, “I don’t have Magical Beasts.
Since you can still fight, then let’s begin.
I’ll play for you ‘The Wild Geese Descend on the Sand’.” His gaze changed, the clear light in his eyes receded with purple haziness, and a layer of pale silver brilliance slowly emerged from the depths of his eyes.
Without saying anything further, the Eight Fingers were now on the Haiyue Qinhui that reappeared.
Under Nesta’s urging, the Red Dragon Di Jia soared high into the air and within a blink of an eye, had ascended a hundred meters.
With the Dragon Soul Spear in hand, the dark red light it emitted clashed against the pale green Douqi, creating a sharp contrast.
Then, with a sudden roar, the Red Dragon unleashed a torrent of fire breath, a green flame which fused with the power in Nesta’s Dragon Spear.
The air seemed to burn as ripples spread out, with limitless momentum, it directly targeted Ye Yinzhu below.
An eight-meter Blood Soul Spear, a rank 5 Red Dragon, and a Green rank Warrior—such a bination could even pose a challenge to a Blue rank Warrior without a mount, let alone Ye Yinzhu who was merely a Mage at the moment.
The searing air current seemed to tear the sky apart, Nesta and his dragon were like a lightning bolt interweaving red and green, racing through the sky towards Ye Yinzhu like a meteor chasing the moon.
The true strength he spoke of was not just his dragon and spear, but also the attribute of his Douqi.
In previous battles, Nesta had only used pure Douqi in his fight with Ye Yinzhu, but now, he had unleashed his Douqi attribute—Fire.
Ye Yinzhu’s Zhu Douqi was of the wood attribute, known for its rapid regenerative life essence.
However, Fire Douqi was the exact counter to wood attribute Douqi, the gap in their ranks was now irrelevant.
Ye Yinzhu sat there without moving, his hands affectionately stroking the zither strings.
Zither Magic Power enveloped him, red as deep wine; in this moment, he had even given up his Douqi which was equivalent to an Intermediate Green rank.
“Quick, stop them,” Nina anxiously said to Fergerson.
“No, wait,” replied Fergerson calmly, with Purple Magic Force already surrounding him, ready to intervene and stop the match at any moment.
However, for some reason, seeing Ye Yinzhu still posed and graceful, he always felt that Yin Zhu wouldn’t lose so easily, which was why he held back and didn’t take action.
