Chapter 43 Crisis
A full moon emitted a pale white light, and the battle continued under the hazy moonlight. As the terrain narrowed, the battle became more and more intense. White lights continued to flash in the woods, proving the reduction in the number of people.
Suddenly, the magic power around Xingyan trembled violently, and the air around him became more and more intense. The magic beads beside him burned a hot flame, and the magic power around him poured into his body like a spring water.
Mu Xue suddenly felt the change of magic power around her, and immediately ended her meditation, holding the sword in her hand, and in the blink of an eye, she had already raised her magic power to the peak. She looked around cautiously and found that there was nothing abnormal. Finally, she turned her gaze to Xingyan. Xingyan's body was wrapped in hot high temperature at this moment, and the two magic beads were gradually solidifying. Under the wrapping of the two magic beads, a faint red ball was gradually condensed. Although it was just a vague phantom, it was extremely real. This proved that he was breaking through the level of the Three-Pearl Magic Master. Once he entered the field of the Three-Pearl Magic Master, then there would be no big suspense in this competition.
"It's really easy to find a place without any effort. I actually chose to break through here. God helped me." A man in white walked out of the woods and stood not far away. Looking at Xingyan who was breaking through and Mu Xue standing with a sword, his eyes were nothing but pride.
Mu Xue glanced at the man in white and her face became a little ugly in an instant, but she calmed down immediately and said coldly: "Sun Hao, you are my defeated general. Do you still want to challenge me?"
Sun Hao glanced at Mu Xue, looked extremely calm, and said with some disdain: "I admit that you are very strong, but Xingyan should be very important to you. If you use that power here, I think his breakthrough will inevitably be interrupted, so you should know what the consequences are."
Mu Xue's face turned pale again. You should know that Sun Hao is the best in the rankings. In order to defeat him, he exhausted all his magic power and finally activated the second magic source to defeat him. However, the activation condition of the second magic source is to extract the surrounding magic power, so that his magic power can instantly break through his own boundaries, and increase his strength in a short period of time. However, if she opens the second magic source now, it will be easy to defeat Sun Hao. However, Xingyan will inevitably fail to break through to the three pearl realm due to the lack of magic power, so he will not be able to break through to the three pearl realm again in a short period of time.
Sun Hao looked at Mu Xue's expression and knew that his guess was correct. He immediately took out the spear behind him, and the yellow light on his body was lit up. Two yellow magic beads quickly rotated around his body. A piece of earthy armor was draped on him, and the rich earth elements gradually rose on his body, and the peak strength of the second beads was fully revealed.
Mu Xue didn't dare to neglect and rushed towards Sun Hao immediately. She knew that this battle could not be avoided anyway, so she could only try to keep the battle location away from Xingyan. She only hoped that Xingyan could break through to the Three Pearl Realm as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would not be able to guarantee that he could defeat Sun Hao with his current strength.
Sun Hao also deeply understood Mu Xue's fighting style, so he took defense as soon as he took action and continued to fight attrition with Mu Xue. In addition, he slowly pulled the battle location towards Xingyan. He knew that if he wanted to win as soon as possible, he could only mess up Mu Xue's mind, but he could not guarantee that Mu Xue would give up the qualification to enter the inner courtyard to protect Xingyan. Once Mu Xue was forced to open the second magic source, his defeat was only a momentary matter. After all, what he heard about Xingyan and Mu Xue was that these two people entered the academy together. The relationship was not bad, and the others knew nothing. In addition, Xingyan's mysterious disappearance for a while, he was even more unable to determine Xingyan's true strength. However, he had one thing to be sure that once Xingyan's breakthrough was successful, he would have no chance of winning, so he could only gamble about Mu Xue's care about Xingyan.
Mu Xue also knew what Sun Hao was thinking, but now she could only try her best to delay Sun Hao's pace, and silently prayed in her heart that Xingyan could wake up quickly.
Sun Hao waved the spear in his hand, like an invisible barrier, completely blocking Mu Xue's attack, causing Mu Xue's attack to completely lose its previous edge. In addition, the earth attribute is mainly defense, so Sun Hao was not worried that his defense would be broken by Mu Xue.
The figures of the two people were constantly interlaced. Although Mu Xue always seemed to have the upper hand, a discerning person could see at a glance that if the winner could not be decided in a short period of time, Mu Xue would definitely lose. However, Sun Hao has always been mainly defense, and the magic power consumed is far less than Mu Xue. So if he continues to fight like this, Sun Hao will definitely win, but the problem is that he dare not wait. The existence of Xingyan has always threatened him, making him creepy, especially when he saw that the third magic bead around Xingyan had a prototype phantom, which made him afraid to wait. The defense in his hand also transformed into attack moves and stabbed Mu Xue's body.
The attack in Mu Xue's hand was getting faster and faster, and the magic power in her body had been consumed for more than half, but she still did not hurt Sun Hao. This made her feel anxious. The attack in her hand became stronger and stronger, and she was about to approach Xingyan. If she got too close, Xingyan would inevitably be disturbed, and something might really happen at that time.
The star flame not far away seemed to have encountered some bottleneck. The flames on its body trembled violently. A trace of cold air was mixed with the hot temperature, which quickly dissipated around. A blue halo gradually appeared in the red power on its body, and it was not soon swallowed by the red magic. The cold air around it also disappeared without a trace in an instant. The temperature around it rose rapidly, and all the trees within a radius of ten meters were withered.
Sun Hao suddenly felt the temperature around him was a little hot, and immediately turned his head to look at the place where Xingyan was. This glance made his hair explode, and the attack in his hand became a little messy. Mu Xue almost broke the defense, but it also became a little embarrassed. A trace of horror appeared in his heart. The spear in his hand swung out with all his strength, blocked Mu Xue's heavy blow, and flew back.
Mu Xue didn't even bother chasing Sun Hao, and rushed to Xingyan without hesitation. Just as she was about to approach Xingyan, suddenly the flames on Xingyan's body trembled, and a little flame dragon floated out from his side and rushed towards Mu Xue's chest.
Mu Xue thought that her battle affected Xingyan, so she was not prepared at all. When the fire dragon floated out beside Xingyan, Mu Xue could only place her sword across her chest and barely blocked it with the magic power in her body. However, she was caught off guard and was knocked out by the fire dragon. She rolled for nearly a hundred meters away, and blood slowly overflowed from the corner of her mouth.
After a long time, Mu Xue slowly stood up, looked at Xingyan with an extremely pale face, and glanced at Sun Hao not far away from him from the corner of her eyes, and smiled bitterly at the corner of her mouth, and turned to Sun Hao helplessly.
"It's God's help. Let me take you away today." Seeing that Xingyan was not about to wake up yet, Sun Hao couldn't help but breathe a little relaxed and slowly walked towards Mu Xue, with a hint of pride flashing in his eyes.
