"Of course."
Wang Baiqing chuckled lightly, "As the top student, you're underestimating our Academy's first place too much."
"Jiang Yuan's Star Power duration is problematic," Jin Lingyu shook his head somewhat helplessly.
Whether as a student from his own Academy or as a Tenth Realm Longevity Star Realm powerhouse, he was fully aware of Jiang Yuan's condition on the field.
"It seems that Jiang Yuan has also noticed it. If it continues this way, Jiang Yuan might actually be able to defeat Li Chengyi."
Yu Chengtian, too, excitedly rubbed his bald head and said with a bit of happiness, "If that happens, wouldn't Huang Huanqing be firmly in first place?"
Whether Huang Huanqing from their Academy took the champion title of the second battlefield in the four-school Joint Examination, or the fact that the betting had just opened, both thrilled him.
"Not necessarily, if it drags on like this, Li Chengyi might not necessarily lose."
Guan Chutian shook her head, "Nezha's strongest attack method has been sealed. Without a powerful attack to break through Li Chengyi's defenses, the now restricted Nezha and Zhao Gongming can't get close at all."
"Indeed, the ultimate result would basically be Li Chengyi wearing the opponents down one by one with his continuous Star Power recovery, and finally defeating Jiang Yuan."
"After all, in such a scenario, as long as one opponent is defeated, the pressure will be greatly reduced."
Yu Chengtian also spoke out, the undertones of the conversation among the three of them indicating that they weren't optimistic about Jiang Yuan's chances of victory.
After all, even though Li Chengyi was currently unable to inflict direct damage on Jiang Yuan, Jiang Yuan was also unable to deal a fatal blow to Li Chengyi.
However, that was only the point of view of these three.
"I beg to differ."
Jin Lingyu smiled and then looked up at the two competitors on the field: "Nezha has quite a few methods of attack."
"For example, that golden bracelet."
After Jin Lingyu finished speaking, the three people beside him immediately remembered the attack power of that golden bracelet and hastily looked up at the field.
On the field, the [Ice Soul Storm] had disappeared, and with it, the Undead Enslavement.
However...
"It's almost time."
Inside the Linglong Pagoda, Jiang Yuan and Shi Ji, who had successfully resisted the [Ice Soul Storm], also revealed the same smiles.
The Undead Amplification Master, in the last moments before its disappearance, successfully amplified Nezha with his most powerful skill.
[Life Gift]: At the cost of one's own life, amplify the target's strength by fifty percent and critical hit by thirty percent!
The recent [Ice Soul Storm] did not wipe out five Undead Enslavement, but four.
The Undead Amplification Master sacrificed itself!
"Attack!"
"Understood!"
Shi Ji, Nezha, and Zhao Gongming all nodded simultaneously.
Shi Ji struck first, releasing the [Fear Poison Sting]!
Counteracted by Li Chengyi's skill release!
Immediately following, black thunder fell from the sky, smashing Li Chengyi's [Earth Barrier], while Zhao Gongming also conjured a black bow and arrow in his hand.
Drawing bow and loosing arrow, the short and thick, powerfully [Thunder Arrow] shot forth!
Li Chengyi was forced to release another skill to collide with the [Thunder Arrow], blocking the attack.
Li Chengyi furrowed his brow, having blocked three consecutive attacks, starved his already scant Star Power even more.
But there was still Nezha in the sky!
"Only enough Star Power for one last skill."
Li Chengyi pursed his lips, then released his last skill.
[Elemental Protection]!
A seven-colored Energy Barrier appeared, enveloping Li Chengyi inside.
Inside the colorful semicircular Energy Barrier, Li Chengyi looked up at Nezha in the sky.
"If this attack breaks through, I die; if it doesn't, you die!"
A hint of madness gleamed in Li Chengyi's eyes, as a skill capable of absorbing attacks and returning them double.
As long as it's not breached, the attack can be returned!
This was his final move!
His body's Star Power had been drained dry, and the card for restoring Star Power was already used up.
Waiting for the slow recovery of the skill that restored Star Power was futile compared to solving the problem in one go!
Contrary to what Jin Lingyu and the several headmasters imagined, with him slowly grinding down Jiang Yuan, he was very clear that without addressing his Star Power recovery issue, he couldn't possibly defeat Jiang Yuan!
"Now it's my turn!"
Nezha, seeing that both Zhao Gongming and Shi Ji had attacked, became excited as well.
"Qiankun Ring! Go!"
Nezha in the sky roared, the golden bracelet on his wrist suddenly enlarged, and with the sound of tearing through the air and immense momentum, it smashed towards Li Chengyi!
