Chapter 2681 - 2681 Battle of Ice!



2681 Battle of Ice!

Tian Ningning had confirmed these matters repeatedly long ago and had done many rehearsals.

She had also conducted the others aside from Lin Yuan, and they were all willing to cooperate with her.

As long as Lin Yuan and the rest were willing to cooperate with her, nothing could go wrong. This was something that Tian Ningning could guarantee!

Even if there was a kink in the process, the talented people in the teams could handle it.

Tian Ningning knew that Liu Hao was acting this way because he was worried that something would go wrong and he would have to take responsibility for it. At the same time, he wanted to remind her of the gravity of this matter.

“Don’t worry, Big Brother Hao. The Radiance Hundred Sequence reranking has begun. I need to begin working and preparing. I hope you can send another team to me. I need them to help out the hosts and commentators. This will raise the publicity of the event to the greatest extent.”

Tian Ningning had selfish reasons for saying this to Liu Hao.

Tian Ningning had not watched that youth grow up, but he hoped that she would be able to brighten up his most glorious moment. She wanted the spotlight on him to be as dazzling as possible so he could be even more astounding than he already was.

The most troubled person in the entire Radiance Federation was Mu Yan, who was Sequence #100.

According to the rules of the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection, she would be the first to issue her three challenges.

It did not matter if she lost these three challenges. But as long as she won one, she would be able to move up the ranks.

Those who challenged first meant that in the subsequent 200 matches, they could only be chosen to be challenged.

Given that she was Sequence #100, people naturally assumed that she was the weakest.

Mu Yan was confident in her power. She had improved her power significantly in the past year.

But if her opponent was sufficiently powerful, even if she managed to win the match, she would have to expose herself completely and reveal all her secret weapons.

Secret weapons were what struck fear into others.

Hence, Mu Yan had no idea who to pick!

Ever since she became part of the Radiance Hundred Sequence, Mu Yan had been preparing for the reranking a year later because she was worried that she would be eliminated.

Thus, she had been researching the other members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. She would only be able to improve her chances when she understood her opponents.

Eventually, she decided to set her sights on Sequence #87 Wu Ting, who was called Icy Waves.

Wu Ting was a veteran in the Radiance Hundred Sequence. She was already 29 years old this year but had never made it into the top 60. She always fluctuated around the 80s.

She was one of the main members of a B-level guild club and had a wealth of battle experience.

One of the rules of the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection was that once a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence had been eliminated, they could not compete again!

Wu Ting’s power and tenacity were proven by her tenure in the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

Wu Ting was surprised to be chosen by a rookie, and she hurriedly stood up from her seat before gallantly striding to the arena.

Mu Yan had selected Wu Ting as her opponent after all the research she had done.

Every spirit qi professional contracted many feys, so it was difficult to effectively counter them. One could only target one area to try and influence the battle.

Element-type feys battled each other in terms of the level of their elements. If a fire element was of a high enough level, water would not be able to put it out. For example, Zong Ze’s Fiery Sky Hou could instantaneously dry up a river.

Mu Yan had nurtured a new fey. Although this fey was ice-type, it could also effectively counter other ice-type feys.

This new fey was what gave Mu Yan the confidence to take on Wu Ting.

At first, one could only challenge ranks that were up to ten ranks above one’s position. But now, this restriction had been lifted. The ranking would become more flexible and fair.

Even if Mu Yan used natural countering to win one match, she would not be at an advantage for the rest of the reranking.

However, Mu Yan did not care.

All she wanted to do now was to raise her rank as quickly as possible while trying to keep as many of her secret weapons hidden as possible. This would give her the chance to use them if she was challenged by anyone else.

Although she had learned from previous information that her new fey could counter Wu Ting, Mu Yan dared not underestimate Wu Ting. It was possible that Wu Ting had significantly increased her power in the last year or still had secret weapons that she had yet to reveal.

Wu Ting smiled and nodded at Mu Yan.

“Sister Mu Yan, you can summon your fey first!”

Wu Ting’s arms hung by her sides, and she looked expectant.

It was an advantage to be able to summon one’s feys first during battle.

There was a tradition in the Radiance Hundred Sequence, which was that when those of higher ranks were challenged by those of lower ranks, those of lower ranks could summon their feys first.

Mu Yan did not stand on ceremony with Wu Ting and pointed ahead of her. Two identical ice-type feys appeared in front of her.

These two ice-type feys were two Ice Vein Frozen Bats with wingspans of less than 40 centimeters. They could absorb the coldness in the air around them to boost their combat abilities.

Wu Ting’s lips twitched. It was no wonder that this brat was challenging her!

Two of her ice-type feys were skilled at creating icy environments. The two Ice Vein Frozen Bats would be able to effectively counter these two feys.

However, Mu Yan was naive if she thought that she would be able to defeat her just with these two Ice Vein Frozen Bats!

Wu Ting leaned forward and charged ahead. While she was running, a giant creature that was more than 20 meters tall crashed to the ground ahead of her.

An aura barrelled over towards Mu Yan at the instant that his giant creature appeared.

The giant creature’s claws pierced the ground, and the arena’s ground froze solid.

When the giant creature roared, ice slabs rose from the ground, completely altering the arena’s environment.

The Shaman Ice Bear was one of Wu Ting’s signature feys. It was what enabled Wu Ting to win most of her battles.

The Shaman Ice Bear’s reputation caused the audience watching the Radiance Hundred Shaman Ice Bear reranking to let out gasps.

The Shaman Ice Bear was much more famous than Mu Yan’s two Ice Vein Frozen Bats.

However, the hosts and commentators who were analyzing the battles could not help but frown.

The Ice Vein Frozen Bat was part of textbooks and described as the perfect ice-type fey.

Those who took Fey Observer classes in university all had a certain understanding of the Ice Vein Frozen Bat.

Wu Ting and Mu Yan were both members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. Although Mu Yan’s rank was lower than that of Wu Ting, it was unlikely that Wu Ting knew nothing about Mu Yan.

There had to be a special reason for Wu Ting summoning the Shaman Ice Bear in such circumstances!

Wu Ting had a fair number of feys. She had three.

The ice-type fey that was mainly in charge of attacking had restrained cold aura, so none of it leaked to be absorbed by the Ice Vein Frozen Bats.

Mu Yan instructed the Ice Vein Frozen Bats to produce two ice walls to block the fierce aura.

The cold aura within the rush of cold air was the best nourishment for the Ice Vein Frozen Bats.

As the Ice Vein Frozen Bats absorbed the cold aura, they started to divide and separate.

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

A year ago, before the Radiance Federation had begun building mirror cities in the abyssal world, the price of relatively perfect ice-type feys was very low because it was very costly to nurture them.

But now, the Ice Vein Frozen Bat had become the most popular ice-type fey.

The Ice Vein Frozen Bat had the exclusive skill Cold Accumulation Body Split. When the frozen aura in its body reached a certain level, it would begin splitting its body to become a swarm of bats.

This was slightly less rare than the Mirror Silver Obsidian Bull’s ability Sacrifice.

Both of Mu Yan’s Ice Vein Frozen Bats’ exclusive skills were Cold Accumulation Body Split.

She had spent a lot of effort and resources to nurture these two feys.

But when Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the Shaman Ice Bear, Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. He had not expected Wu Ting to be hiding such a move.

The Shaman Ice Bear’s Diamond ability Zero Degree Disintegration would allow the Shaman Ice Bear to infuse its spiritual energy and soul energy into its cold aura. It would then freeze its target and cause the target’s muscles to disintegrate.

Given that Zero Degree Disintegration required the Shaman Ice Bear to use its spiritual energy and soul energy, it was considered a restraining ability that was not commonly used in combat.

This ability was extremely costly for the Shaman Ice Bear, and Wu Ting had been significantly troubled by it.

Yet, this ability was going to become the crux of this battle!

The Ice Vein Frozen Bat’s exclusive skill, Cold Accumulation Body Split, would also use up its own energy.

Moreover, Mu Yan did not have the clarity to see all that was happening and used the Ice Vein Frozen Bats’ swarm as both her method of attack and defense.

When they clashed, the Ice Vein Frozen Bats would be immediately broken down by the Shaman Ice Bear.

The Class 3 Creation Masters had to carefully examine the Shaman Ice Bear to notice that something was different about the Shaman Ice Bear’s ability.

The Class 4 and above Creation Masters were able to see through the Shaman Ice Bear’s abilities.

There were Creation Masters amongst the Radiance Hundred Sequence, but they were only Class 3 at best. It was rare for a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence to reach a higher level before they turned 30 years old.

Wu Ting saw that Mu Yan was busy ordering the Ice Vein Frozen Bats to absorb the cold aura released by the Shaman Ice Bear and did not summon any other feys.

Wu Ting intended to push Mu Yan to the brink before pushing Mu Yan to reveal her secret weapons. This would give her the advantage and enable her to assess if it would be necessary for her to use her own secret weapons.

When she saw the expression on Mu Yan’s face, she believed that Mu Yan thought of her as a moron who was enabling her to absorb as much cold aura as she wanted.

Although Mu Yan was still somewhat wary, the Ice Vein Frozen Bats continued to split up, and there were eventually tens of Ice Vein Frozen Bats flying around her. Mu Yan felt that she might be able to defeat Wu Ting without summoning that fey!

The two Ice Vein Frozen Bats had powerful control over the more than 60 Ice Vein Frozen Bats.

When she felt that there were enough of the bats, Mu Yan ordered half of the swarm to attack Wu Ting. As for the other half, they circled Mu Yan to protect her.

When Wu Ting saw that Mu Yan was beginning to attack, she issued another order to the Shaman Ice Bear.

After receiving Wu Ting’s order, the Shaman Ice Bear let out a loud roar.

Soon, three ice walls appeared in front of the Shaman Ice Bear, blocking it from sight. However, the gaps between the three walls were large enough for the swarm of bats to fly through.

Mu Yan could no longer see Wu Ting, and she immediately frowned.

Wu Ting used this opportunity to summon another two feys.

One of these feys was covered with crystalline ice and was around the size of a pet rabbit.

However, this small creature had taken Liu Jie down in a previous battle. The memory was still fresh in his mind!

The small creature rushed into the ice wall and became one with it.

Liu Jie knew that this fey called the Ice Mirror Hunter Sable would not remain in the ice wall. The entire ice-covered arena could become its dwelling.

The Ice Mirror Hunter Sable would attack Mu Yan at the right moment.

If Mu Yan could not remove the layer of ice underneath her, it would be difficult for her to survive the Ice Mirror Hunter Sable’s attack.

The other fey was a yak that was around the same size as the Shaman Ice Bear.

Once the yak appeared and stomped on the ground, the cold aura in the arena intensified.

At first, there was only ice on the ground. But now, there was snow, too. The snow shot up to the sky from the ground.

The territory of ice created by the Blizzard Wild Cow and Shaman Ice Bear was the reason that Wu Ting was called Icy Waves.

The Shaman Ice Bear produced waves of cold air continuously, and Mu Yan had no choice but to go on the defensive.

The rushing waves of cold air covered the sound of the Blizzard Wild Cow’s stomping.

Thus, Mu Yan did not know that Wu Ting had already summoned another fey.

Nonetheless, Mu Yan had sensed that she was in danger.

Because of this, Mu Yan summoned the fey she regarded as her secret weapon.

A mouse with a half-red and half-blue body appeared by Mu Yan’s feet and started squeaking. It did not look very intelligent.

At the instant that Lin Yuan saw the mouse-species fey, an amused appeared on his face.

The victor of this game was yet to be confirmed!

If this mouse-species fey’s ability was not so one-sided, Lin Yuan would have been interested in forming a contract with it.

This fey was called the Hot Ice Boiling Mouse. It could transform cold attributes into flaming hot ones.

There were two sides to every element. But most feys could only control one of them.

The opposite spectrum of the element would cause backlash to a fey that controlled the element on the other side of the spectrum.

The damage caused by such backlash was much stronger than external elemental attacks!

This was the first time that Lin Yuan was seeing a fey that could overturn the attributes of another fey.

Mu Yan’s sense of danger heightened.

She no longer cared that her secret weapon was being exposed, and she ordered the Hot Ice Boiling Mouse, “Squeaky, turn the ice into flames!”
