175 Shadows Make Light BrighterSeeing that Feng Xiaotian failed to break free of the copper ring martial spirit in time and was hit by countless musical waves, Feng Wuque, the deputy captain of the Kamikaze Academy, shouted, "Captain——"
Amid the fierce explosions, Feng Xiaotian endured the bombardment of a large number of musical chopping waves and roared, "Second soul skill, double wolf possession."
Suddenly, strong winds blew up in the sky, and the soul power burst out from Feng Xiaotian's body, forming a strong green wind that blew towards him, and it actually shattered all the musical waves that were bombarding him.
After using the second soul skill, Feng Xiaotian's attack, defense, and agility attributes will all increase by 50%. The power that surged in an instant shattered the three copper rings that bound his body, "Attack——"
It's a very simple word, but its meaning is very clear.
After receiving the order from Feng Xiaotian, the six members of the Kamikaze Academy spread their wings and used their respective amplification soul skills to increase their speed and strengthen their attacks.
At this moment, six people from the Kamikaze Academy dropped from the sky and swooped down towards Li Gang and the others who were attached to the ground in the form of shadows. In a flash, like a divine bird attacking, the six people from the Kamikaze Academy hit six black shadows attached to the ground respectively, and there was a continuous roar.
However, the six black shadows transformed by Li Gang and others had already used their ability to move freely in the shadow area to get out of Lu Buliang's shadow and easily avoided the dive attack of the six members of the Kamikaze Academy.
Seeing Li Gang and the other six people transforming from shadows back into human form and appearing next to Lu Buliang safely, Feng Xiaotian in the air was immediately displeased. If they didn't eliminate Lu Buliang, Li Gang and the other six people could use Lu Buliang's shadow to avoid danger at any time. But if they wanted to eliminate Lu Buliang first, they would have suffered the same fate as the two agile attack soul masters from Thunder Academy in the last game.
Before his sneak attack could succeed, he was eliminated by Lu Buliang.
Feng Xiaotian was filled with resentment. He hated the fact that a Soul Emperor appeared in the elite competition. It simply broke the balance and made the competition unfair. Couldn't the organizers add a restriction that 'from now on, any Soul Emperor whose soul power reaches level 60, regardless of age, cannot participate in the elite competition'?
"Attack--" Feng Xiaotian shouted.
Just as Li Gang said, the attack mode of the Kamikaze Academy is very simple, that is to use the advantage of flying to engage in air combat. Being high above, one can pay close attention to the opponent's every move. Once the opportunity is seized, they will swoop down like an eagle.
After receiving the "attack" order, six members of the Kamikaze Academy dropped from the sky again. Their target was not Li Gang and others, but they all rushed towards Lu Buliang at an incredibly fast speed.
Li Gang, Xiaoxuemei, and the other four substitute players all received the order given by Lu Buliang in their minds, which was also a simple word: attack.
The four substitute players are all strong attack spirit masters, and their spirits are Fire Lion, Golden Stick, White Bear and Thunder Tiger respectively.
After receiving the order, they turned into shadows and rushed towards the four Kamikaze Academy members who were swooping down. In the shadow state, they could ignore the terrain obstructions and stay in the air temporarily.
The four substitute players wanted to use this short period of air-staying ability to entangle the opponent in shadow form, and then use their own soul skills to launch an attack.
The four members of the Kamikaze Academy never thought that someone would rush towards their attack trajectory, which was simply seeking death.
With a flap of their wings behind them, the four members of the Kamikaze Academy simultaneously increased their dive speed, intending to use speed to enhance the destructive power of the dive and then defeat the oncoming enemy in an instant.
However, they underestimated the members of Tiandou Team 2 under the command of Lu Buliang.
Through the shadow communication, they received the news from Lu Buliang. No matter it was Li Gang, Xiao Xuemei, or the four substitute players, they all seemed to be closely connected by the shadows. With Lu Buliang's command, they were no longer like headless flies.
The four substitute players rushed towards the four members of the Kamikaze Academy in shadow form. They seemed brainless, but in fact they hid their true intentions.
Just when the four members of Kamikaze Academy were about to hit the four substitute players rushing towards them, a scene that surprised the audience appeared. The four substitute players changed into a circle of black copper rings in the form of shadows.
It was a hollow black copper ring with a diameter of about half a meter, and it looked like a replica of Li Gang's copper ring martial spirit.
The four members of the Kamikaze Academy dived down and passed through four circles of black copper rings. Their attacks missed and their bodies were tied up by the black copper rings that shrank in an instant. As their wings were restrained by the copper rings and could not move, the four members of the Kamikaze Academy lost their ability to fly, lost their balance and fell, hitting the floor of the fighting arena hard.
Bang, bang, bang, bang.
Four muffled sounds echoed on the fighting arena. The four people from the Kamikaze Academy who fell to the ground with the force of the dive suffered considerable injuries.
At this time, the four substitute players who had turned into copper rings on their bodies changed back into shadow state, and then changed back into human form, and released their respective soul skills one after another.
The flaming claws of the Fire Lion Martial Spirit, the blow to the head from the Golden Stick Martial Spirit, the pushing palm from the White Bear Martial Spirit, and the lightning impact from the Thunder Tiger Martial Spirit.
The four spirit skills hit the four seriously injured members of the Kamikaze Academy almost at the same time. The fierce attack not only made their injuries worse, but also knocked them off the fighting stage and lost their qualifications for the competition.
Feng Xiaotian, who was suspended in the air, was stunned when he saw his four companions being eliminated. It was the first time for him to see people from the Kamikaze Academy being killed when they launched a dive attack.
This cannot be blamed on Feng Xiaotian for being too careless. No one present had ever thought that the members of Tiandou Team 2, who were operating in shadow form, could change as freely as shadows. Without any warning, they turned into Li Gang's copper ring martial spirit to restrict the flying ability of the Kamikaze Academy.
Moreover, in this game, the members of Tiandou Team 2 showed obvious changes in their combat quality and awareness when fighting against Thunder Academy.
Combat awareness is accumulated through combat experience. How is it possible that a member of Tiandou Team 2 could suddenly transform from a rookie into an experienced eagle in such a short period of time?
Ordinary audiences naturally couldn't understand the mystery, but Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chenxin in the guest seats, as well as some college teachers in the contestant viewing area, could understand it.
The one who made such an amazing change in such a useless team as Tiandou Team 2 was none other than Lu Buliang who was assisting them at the moment.
It turns out that Lu Buliang not only gave his teammates the ability of shadows, but also commanded the team to fight.
"He actually takes care of both the auxiliary and control positions." Shui Bing'er's gaze has always stayed on Lu Buliang. From the moment Li Gang trapped Feng Xiaotian with the copper ring martial spirit, she felt something was wrong.
Now seeing the four substitute players from Tiandou Team 2 eliminate the four players from Kamikaze Academy, Shui Bing'er finally realized what was wrong.
Throughout the entire game, Tiandou Team 2 never spoke a word, but the rhythm of each attack and retreat was just right, which showed that someone was directing the battle of Tiandou Team 2.
So who is this person?
There is no doubt that the members of Tiandou Team 2 are all nobles with extremely poor combat qualities.
The person who can turn this group of rookies into eagles is probably Lu Buliang, who plays a supporting role on the battlefield.
In team battles, the ones who command the operations are usually control-type soul masters.
In other words, although Lu Buliang appears to be assisting his teammates, he actually also takes on the role of control, directing his teammates in combat through some kind of mental communication.
Seeing that the strongest of the five elemental academies, the Divine Wind Academy, had no power to fight back against the Tiandou Team 2, Shui Bing'er's stereotype of Lv Buliang's arrogance changed a lot. It turned out that Lv Buliang was not only strong in his personal strength and combat quality. With him, how could the useless Tiandou Royal Academy Team 2 become so strong?
After the four people from the Divine Wind Academy were eliminated, only the captain Feng Xiaotian, the deputy captain Feng Wuque, and another team member were left.
With three against seven, Feng Xiaotian smiled bitterly. When fighting with Thunder Academy, the members of Tiandou Team 2 were just a bunch of trash. But why did they become different when fighting with Kamikaze Academy?
Kamikaze Academy was forced into such a desperate situation before Lü Buliang made a move. Wouldn't this make other elemental academies laugh at it?
"Captain, what should we do?" Feng Wuque said, "Lü Buliang alone can wipe us out. Now these members of Tiandou Team 2 have become so powerful that we can't win at all. Instead of fighting any further, we might as well admit defeat. Save our strength. With our points, we should be able to rank in the top five and pass the preliminaries."
"Give up?" Feng Xiaotian sneered, "I have already promised Huo Wu to vent her anger, how can I give up?"
"Captain, which is more important, Huo Wu or the honor of the Divine Wind Academy?" Feng Wuque advised, "Think about it, when facing Lü Buliang, both the Blazing Fire Academy and the Thunderbolt Academy exposed their trump cards, but what was the result? Didn't they still lose the game? If we keep our trump cards, it means that in future games, as long as we don't run into Lü Buliang, we will have a winning chip. Have you forgotten? You promised your father that you would lead the Divine Wind Academy to go further!"
After hearing this, Feng Xiaotian calmed down. He knew that Shenfeng Academy had no chance of winning the Elite Championship. But he had promised the dean of Shenfeng Academy, who was also his father, that he would lead Shenfeng Academy to get a good place in the finals.
The agreement with Huo Wu is certainly important to Feng Xiaotian, but Feng Xiaotian values the promise to his father more.
However, if he said the word "surrender", how would he raise his head in front of Huo Wu in the future?
Feng Wuque could naturally see Feng Xiaotian's difficulties, and before he made a decision, he said first: "Referee, we surrender. Let Tiandou Royal Academy Team 2 win this game."
"Are you sure?" The referee looked at Feng Xiaotian, the team captain.
Feng Xiaotian gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. After a fierce ideological struggle, he finally nodded slightly.
"In the fourth round of the preliminaries, the Kamikaze Academy played against the second team of the Tiandou Royal Academy. The second team of the Tiandou Royal Academy won the match—"
After the referee announced the result, the audience was still silent for a moment before they cheered and applauded enthusiastically.
Well done, you are not useless, well done to Tiandou Team 2.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Similar shouts reached the ears of Li Gang, his junior high school sister, and the four substitute players. His eyes slowly swept over the spectators who stood up and cheered excitedly. Li Gang's eyes were red. In the battle with Thunder Academy, he suffered all the cold words and humiliation from the audience.
Today, thanks to my own efforts, I have finally changed the audience's evaluation.
I am not a waste! Li Gang was very determined. He was an aristocratic soul master who was idle and neglected his cultivation all day long, but he was definitely not a waste.
The dignity of a soul master is to stand up where you fell.
Never give up even if you lose, this is Li Gang's belief.
Xiaoxuemei had never been so popular before. Amid the cheers of the audience, she tasted the sweetness of hard work being rewarded. This made her realize that if she wanted to be favored and recognized by others, she should enhance her own charm instead of seeking popularity.
The other four substitute players wiped the tears from their eyes. It would be the glory of their lives to receive such warm applause in their first elite competition. The desire for victory made them more determined. In the next elite competition, they must work hard to practice and not rely on Lu Buliang, but on themselves to win the recognition and applause of the audience.
Where there is joy there is sorrow. The four main players of Tiandou Team 2 who lost confidence and chose to withdraw from the competition because of the battle with Thunder Academy are now extremely ashamed.
The joy of victory not only did not make them feel happy, but instead made them leave in shame and anger, never to participate in this elite competition again.
Looking at the members of Team 2 enjoying the cheers of the audience, Lu Bu smiled inadvertently. Shadows would make the light more dazzling, and now was the time for Li Gang and others to shine. As a shadow, he had completed his mission and it was time for him to let them enjoy the honor.
In the corridor leading to the lounge area.
Lu Buliang was just about to open the space channel and rush to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire to practice.
But unexpectedly, a sudden voice called him, "Captain."
Turning around, I saw that the person coming was Li Gang, his junior high school sister, and four substitute teammates.
"Captain, are you going to practice again?" Li Gang asked. This was the first time he called Lu Buliang the captain. After today's game, as much as he disliked Lu Buliang before, he now respected him.
Lu Buliang nodded.
"I have been targeting you before. I have said a lot of excessive things. I am really sorry." Li Gang looked into Lu Buliang's eyes and said sincerely: "Captain, I will never do this again. We will do whatever you want us to do. I will never resist you again. I swear!"
Lü Buliang smiled, "You should work hard to cultivate in the future, and don't let down the applause of the audience today."
"Yes!" Before Li Gang could respond, four substitute players answered first.
"You guys go and have a rest. I'll leave first." After saying that, Lu Buliang walked into the vortex space passage in front.
As the space closed, Lu Buliang disappeared in the corridor and came to the shore of the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
Lounge area.
After finishing today's game, the second team of Tiandou Royal Academy returned to the rest area to take a short rest.
Li Gang and others knew that Lu Buliang had gone somewhere to practice, so after the rest, they would also return to the mimicry field of Tiandou Royal Academy to practice.
Today's audience's applause and recognition made them realize how glorious it is to be a soul master.
If you want to get such recognition again, you must practice hard.
Li Gang stood up from the sofa and said to his junior sister and the four substitute players, "Let's go. We have finished our rest and it is time for us to go back to the academy to practice."
The junior high school girl and the four substitute players stood up one after another. When they were about to leave the sofa, they were stopped by a girl, "Li Gang, why are you the only ones here? Where is Lu Buliang?"
Li Gang looked towards the entrance of the rest area and found that seven main players from Tianshui College were walking towards his position.
The person who called him just now was Shui Yueer.
Before Li Gang could answer, the younger sister said to Shui Yue'er with a cold face, "Why are you asking where our captain is?"
Shui Yueer didn't understand why the girl suddenly rolled her eyes at her, and said unhappily, "I'm not asking you, why are you so anxious?"
The junior high school girl was about to retort, but Li Gang stopped her with his hand and replied, "Our captain has already gone to other places to practice. He doesn't have time to stay here."
"Practice?" Shui Yue'er was a little surprised. "Didn't he just finish the competition? Why is he in such a hurry to practice?"
Li Gang smiled proudly, "Don't you know? Our captain is a practice fanatic. He practices various practices almost every day, and they are all practices that we can't do. Otherwise, why do you think he is so powerful?"
