Chapter 279: In Leaps and Bounds
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Beijing was famous in the entire country for its fire-series Star Techniques.
For example, if someone were to ask, “Which area of the country has better fire-series Star Techniques?”
Most people would think of several representative regions, such as Dajiang Province, Beijing…
At this moment, the young talents separated from Jiang Xiao by the wall happened to be from the Beijing High School students’ alliance. There were about six teams consisting of more than 20 people altogether.
Of course, the ones in control were the fire-series Star Techniques users.
They had Blazing Dragons, Fire Meteor Shower, three-headed Fire Snakes, and erupting volcanoes…
Jiang Xiao even saw the “summoning” fire-series Star Techniques, the Little Firemen.
As the name suggested, the “Little Firemen” were leprechauns gathered together by flames, each about 50 centimeters tall.
They had peculiar appearances, but of course, if one were to stare at them for a long time, one would realize that they were somewhat adorable.
The Little Firemen were humanoid. They had a head and limbs, but they did not have any facial features. Generally speaking, they were burning creatures shaped like humans.
No one could tell which side of them was the front and which was the back of their bodies. They leaped forward like happy fools.
Most of them were turned into frosty mist by the oncoming ice arrows, and a few of them raised their arms, causing flames to dart out of them.
It was fascinating that the Little Firemen would significantly shrink whenever flames were shot out of their bodies…
While moving forward, some of them actually destroyed themselves…
Only a small number of Little Firemen managed to dodge the attacks of the arrows, and as soon as they plunged into the arms of the Ancient Warriors, they instantly exploded!
Despite their small size, they were highly explosive and destructive, so much that they could blast the tall and muscular Ancient Warriors away.
“Wow.” Xia Yan’s eyes glistened. The “Little Firemen” were not Star Techniques commonly found in Beijing. They were creatures from the Fire Cave, a Dimensional Space not open to the outside world. There were videos about them on the Internet, but it was Xia Yan’s first time seeing those creatures.
From this perspective, it would indeed be a good choice for Han Jiangxue to attend university in Beijing.
After all, she had a White Flames Star Map that would be the best fit for fire-series Star Techniques. It would be wonderful if she could acquire some rare fire-series Star Techniques in their future university life.
The cooperation between the members of the Beijing High School alliance was not superb. The Shield Warriors were simply standing at the front and blocking the arrows while the Rules Awakened fought hard against the enemies. However, under the violent output of the fire-series Star Techniques, it was difficult for the melee fighters to get close and launch attacks.
The Ancient Warriors were no kind souls, either. There were about 30 of them, and they were all well-equipped. Most importantly, they seemed to have two leaders, and Jiang Xiao saw at least two Ancient Archer Generals!
Unlike the Ancient Archer Generals that Jiang Xiao’s team faced just now, the two Ancient Archer Generals now were both males, and they were much more buff and taller than the other Ancient Archer Generals. It was easy to distinguish their identities.
“Swoosh! Swoosh!” The Ancient Archer General reached his left hand forward to grab something in the air before pulling the arrow on the bow with his right hand. The jet black bows and arrows appeared out of thin air and quickly darted out.
Bang!
Some of the Shield Warriors in front were holding onto Shadow Shields while others were carrying Flame Shields and Lava Shields. They had different Star Techniques, but they could all conscientiously block the flying arrows.
However, this time, the arrows were no longer fire and ice, but…
“Hang in there! Hang in there! All of you, stay strong!” yelled a male supportive member at the back. The “Memorial Arrow” had emotionally hurt the students in the room, but under the angry roar, they felt enraged and full of battle intent.
The roar spread beyond the wall, and even Jiang Xiao wished he could throw a shot of Sound of Silence. He then rushed in with the sword.
It now seemed that Sound of Silence was a Star Technique that was extremely difficult to acquire. If the group of high school students from Beijing had a shot of “Sound of Silence,” the scene would not be so awkward or embarrassing.
Do these supportive members lack money? Or status? Do they lack connections?
Jiang Xiao didn’t think so. The only possibility was that they had splurged plenty of money, but none of them managed to acquire Sound of Silence.
The Memorial Arrow of the Ancient Archer General did not exhibit the effects that they should have. The angry roar just now was similar to the Howl Star Technique, and it could very likely be from Dameng Province.
The Ancient Archer General pulled the bow and arrow again. This time, it was a poisonous arrow!
Arrow Of Plague!
More than ten Ancient Archers launched all sorts of arrows, but they lacked an Ancient Archer with poisonous arrows.
However, as a Gold Quality leader, the Ancient Archer General did have Arrow Of Plague.
The black longbows summoned by the tall and burly Ancient Archer General immediately turned dark-green. They wandered under the meteor shower and tried to move. However, it seemed rather effortless for them to dodge all sorts of fire-series Star Techniques. At last, he still shot the Arrow Of Plague.
A tall young man with a square-shaped face had a change of expression as he raised both his hands ruthlessly.
Jiang Xiao knew who he was.
Ying Xi!
During the assembly, the officials had also paid close attention to him because he had Spatial Star Techniques.
The candle-shaped Star Map appeared on Ying Xi’s body, and his eighth golden star slot was suddenly ignited!
C… Candle…?
He’s such a tall and burly guy. Yet, his Star Map is in the shape of a small candle.
There were still some flames on the candle flickering and swaying from left to right under the strong Star Power. It was as if they would be put out by a gust of wind.
At the next moment, the ground began to shake at the spot where the Ancient Archer General was standing on. All of a sudden, there was a huge crack in the ground, and a “small volcano” that was pieced together by Star Power suddenly rose from the ground while lava spurted outwards.
After he was done doing that, the Arrow Of Plague had long been stopped by a Shield Warrior. Another arrow crossed the front line and darted straight to the back of the Beijing High School alliance. Without touching anything, the dark-green arrow was shattered immediately, and the dark-green poisonous mist quickly spread outward…
“King, look over there,” Liu Yang said as he gently bumped Jiang Xiao with his shoulder.
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
What kind of a name is that?
You can call me by my nickname, but you should add a “Toxic-healer” before it. If you address me that way, it’d be strange.
Jiang Xiao said, “If you call me that again, I will send you to the mountains.”
Liu Yang was speechless.
Jiang Xiao said, “You must nab a monk and turn him into our dinner~”
Cai Yao looked in the direction of Liu Yang’s gaze, and, through the hollow patterned wall, she saw a heavy box. She couldn’t help but say, “The organizers of this event are really considerate. When announcing the rules, they said that the weapons could be hidden anywhere. However, the box is right there. Where else can it be hidden?”
Liu Yang rubbed his hands in excitement and whispered, “Why are we…”
Before Liu Yang could finish speaking, a violent gust of wind blew over, blowing the dark-green poisonous fog, the fire snakes, and the flames away.
“Let it go!” A roar stunned everyone!
On the other side of the wall, a male supportive member raised his arms high, and some stars landed.
Jiang Xiao was slightly taken aback. He had seen that Star Technique on a member of the Victors Legion during the battle on the eve of the Lunar New Year.
Bang!
With a loud and crisp sound, the heavy box was shattered, and the shining star landed on the box.
Everyone was stunned and had no idea what happened, but they saw a figure appearing behind the box. There was still some fire on her trousers.
Where did this person come from!?!
Amidst the messy battlefield, he actually managed to delve in!?!
The battle between the Ancient Warriors and the Beijing High School alliance was spread around the room filled with ice and fire arrows, fire snakes, volcanoes, and Little Firemen!
However, despite such an environment, an assassin actually sneaked in!
Not only did she sneak in, but she also took the box away… What’s she holding in her hand? A golden bow and arrow?
“Hehe~” A girl’s figure appeared from time to time, and she had a pair of cheery eyes. Holding onto a bow with her right hand, she pressed two fingers of her left hand on her lips. She then pushed it forward and sent a blowing kiss to the students of the Beijing High School Alliance.
“Yuan! Qing! Hua!”
