Chapter 239: Chapter 208: Securing a Small Million Contribution Value, Initiating the Third Match
“This girl’s Holy Light auxiliary spells really are numerous, but her skill connectivity seems a bit rough.”
He didn’t rely on the summoned Necromancer Skeleton Mages to focus fire on Sun Yuanzhu; otherwise, if he threw nearly three thousand “Death Dark Arrow”s at her in one go, she would probably have been instantaneously defeated.
At this moment, Zi Liyuan was simply using a Necromancer and his own learned spells to bombard his opponent.
However, given that Holy Light had a suppressing effect on death and darkness, the spells cast by Li Yuan were weakened by one tier under the illumination of Holy Light.
Of course, Lord Zi didn’t use any extraordinary skills, such as “Death Dark Arrow” or the newly earned “Elemental Arrow” either. Otherwise, the only outcome for his opponent would have been instantaneous defeat.
As the battle progressed, Sun Yuanzhu’s expression grew increasingly unsightly.
The Angel Holy Elephant was entangled by the Spider Queen and couldn’t exert its full power, being suppressed by the opponent instead.
And this was when the opponent had not even used the large group of Skeleton Mages.
Meanwhile, she, who used Holy Light, was being dominated by the Necromancer who wielded death and darkness powers. It was practically a blasphemy of Holy Light!
But no matter what approach she used, under the opponent’s various weakening spells, curses, and attack spells, all she felt was a deep sense of powerlessness.
“It seems I have no choice but to use a Minor Forbidden Spell, but…”
Biting her lip internally, Sun Yuanzhu reluctantly turned to the last skill in her skill pane—”Sacred Judgment.”
It was a Minor Forbidden Spell she had comprehended after breaking through to Fourth Order and completing the silver hero class quest.
However, using this skill required very stringent conditions. Yet, if she adjusted her status to the best condition and stacked all her trump-card buff and support spells on herself, she might barely meet the usage threshold.
“Miss, what are you looking at? Have you run out of tricks?”
Seeing her hesitate, Zi Liyuan immediately knew she still had a trump card to play, although it probably came with significant limitations.
Now was the time to taunt her, forcing her to reveal her last resort; if not now, then when?
From the recent battle, Lord Zi had already grasped Sun Yuanzhu’s strength, which indeed was a notch above Ouyang Lin’s.
And this was without her even using her final trump card yet.
However, as far as he knew, almost every Holy Light Professional had a “Holy Shield” up their sleeve—a tough defensive shell that was basically unbreakable by same-tier opponents, serving as a life-saving trump card.
“Bastard, don’t think you’re so great. I’ll show you next time! I concede this match, hmph!”
After thinking for a moment, Sun Yuanzhu promptly retracted her Angel Holy Elephant, spread her hands without any hesitation to surrender, then turned and teleported out of the arena.
If she couldn’t win the fight now, then she couldn’t—why struggle in vain? Especially after watching Ouyang Lin’s previous match, she learned well.
Zi Liyuan had a skill at his disposal that could banish her into a dimensional space. Even if she managed to use Sacred Judgment by a narrow margin, what good would it do?
He could instantly escape into a dimensional space, and Sacred Judgment couldn’t break through dimensional barriers, so it wouldn’t touch him in the slightest.
Rather than risking backlash just for the satisfaction of retaliation, it was better to return and strengthen her state, striving to reach Tier 4 Peak Level 100 as soon as possible. Then, she could seek revenge against that bastard!
Besides, even though she couldn’t defeat him, her bestie could definitely beat him up.
So, Sun Yuanzhu conceded very decisively, giving Lord Zi one ferocious look before leaving the arena.
The first thing she did after leaving the arena was to pull out her guiding jade card and start to contact her bestie.
She pretended to be pitiful with a series of “woe is me” complaints, painting Lord Zi as utterly despicable, then playing on her bestie’s sympathies until her friend agreed to help teach that bastard a lesson.
Never underestimate a woman’s desire for revenge; they can be incredibly spiteful, eager to frustrate you from dawn till dusk like petty tricksters.
At this moment, Zi Liyuan was left completely speechless.
He had not expected the woman he intentionally aggravated into a hot-headed state to actually concede so calmly.
[Ding, the second match of the pairing competition, winner: Zi Liyuan]
[The duel has ended, the winner takes the loser’s betting stakes, those who bet on Zi Liyuan’s victory share a total of 47,050 Contribution Value, and a total of 6,511,510 points of Contribution Value.]
[Zi Liyuan bet 10k on himself, with a 21.2% stake, winning 1,380,440 points of Contribution Value.]
Once again, three pieces of information appeared on the holographic screen above the arena.
Zi Liyuan had won the second match of the arena pairing competition and again added 1.38 million Contribution Value to his account.
“Made a killing!”
Looking at the credit notifications received on his guiding jade card, Zi Liyuan couldn’t help but smile broadly.
“It’s a shame that next time, these sophomores won’t bet so unwisely.”
The reason he could obtain so much Contribution Value this time was all thanks to Sun Yuanzhu.
Not only was this girl a goddess-level figure among sophomores, but she had also just broken through to Fourth Order. After all, the power of Fourth Order is a qualitative leap from Third Order.
So, it led many sophomores to believe she could suppress Zi Liyuan, resulting in many betting on her.
Essentially, Zi Liyuan had once again picked up a huge bargain, earning 1.38 million Contribution Value in one go. It would be difficult to make this much profit again in the future.
But with the two pairing matches, he earned 2 million Contribution Value, which was enough to solve his current urgent need.
