Although she didn't look behind her and couldn't hear the sound of the attack, Dong Xiaomei could already feel the malicious killing intent coming from behind her.
She stretched out her hand and a surge of water appeared beside her. Like a rolling wave, it wrapped around her and quickly shuttled through the gaps between the stone pillars.
The spider silk that was originally flying behind Dong Xiaomei shot into the water like a bullet. However, it was hit by the water and stopped half a meter away from Dong Xiaomei's back before being swept away by the water.
"Interesting."
Huang Tianze was a little surprised. This Dong Xiaomei's reaction speed was pretty good!
Although the way she escaped was a little funny, her reaction speed was very fast. As she ran, she released the Silver Soul Skill 'Water Dragon Wave'. If she hesitated for even a second, she would have been caught.
"Dong Xiaomei is amazing!"
"Not bad, her reaction speed is not bad. Her speed of releasing her Soul Skill is also very fast. She's very experienced!"
"Haha, I don't know why, but when I see Dong Xiaomei running away, I feel like laughing. Her short legs and chubby face are too funny."
The audience also laughed. At the same time, they were also nervous for Dong Xiaomei.
In many people's eyes, Dong Yunan relied on her relationship with Lin Feng and Yunkai to reach this stage.
Usually, the audience wouldn't like this kind of person, but Dong Xiaomei was an exception.
Two years ago, with Lin Feng and Yunkai attracting the attention of the entire country, Dong Xiaomei of the trio was also well known by people.
Perhaps it was because of her cute appearance and lively personality, but when people saw her, it was as if they saw their own sister or daughter. Therefore, her popularity was not low.
Everyone was also used to calling her Dong Xiaomei.
From her performance just now, the rookie in their eyes seemed to have matured. This even gave the audience an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
Although he was a little surprised, Huang Tianze had no intention of letting Dong Xiaomei go. Relying on the spider silk, he shuttled between the stone pillars.
Below him, Dong Xiaomei was also shuttling through the water. There was no spider silk in this area, so she didn't encounter any obstacles. In order to not be caught, Dong Xiaomei continuously released 'Water Dragon Wave' and constantly changed directions. However, this didn't escape Huang Tianze's eyes, but he couldn't stop the water from flowing.
Above Huang Tianze, a purple-winged youth flapped his wings and quickly appeared in front of Huang Tianze.
It was the Maleficent's Lightning Chen Zhijun.
He had been following Huang Tianze, observing his opponent, at the same time, to protect his's's safety.
As soon as he appeared, purple light lingered around his body. On his wings, lightning shuttled back and forth. Bolts of lightning struck towards Dong Xiaomei, who was in the water.
The lightning condensed into a lightning snake, rolling on the water surface. The turbulent water seemed to be boiling. With a 'bang', water splashed everywhere, and the water level dropped rapidly. Soon, Dong Xiaomei appeared in front of everyone, drenched and twitching.
At this moment, Dong Xiaomei's eyes were tightly shut. Her face was pale, and she seemed to have fainted. However, perhaps because of the pain, her expression was still twitching. Many of the audience felt sorry for her, but they also found it funny.
For some reason, this embarrassing scene was quite amusing.
"Let's go quickly. The Water Dragon's movement is not small. It might be discovered by Lin Feng and the rest."
In mid-air, Chen Zhijun glanced at Dong Xiaomei and said to Huang Tianze.
Dong Xiaomei had fainted from the electrocution and was eliminated.
Just as he was about to flap his wings and leave, Dong Xiaomei, who was lying on the ground with her eyes closed, opened her eyes slightly, and her fingers trembled slightly.
In mid-air, the moist water vapor quickly condensed into chopstick-like ice needles. Although the ice needles were small, there were many of them. There were hundreds and thousands of them, and they surrounded Chen Zhijun.
The number of ice needles was still increasing. The moist water vapor in the air caused the ice needles to condense at an extremely fast speed.
Chen Zhijun flapped his wings and looked at the densely packed ice needles around him. His expression was very ugly.
At this moment, it was too late to dodge. He could only use his spiritual power and use his soul skill.
"Be careful."
Huang Tianze's expression changed slightly. He stretched out his hands, and two spidersilk brushes shot towards Dong Xiaomei.
Dong Xiaomei ignored this attack. She only groaned and allowed the spidersilk to pierce her left and right shoulders. Accompanied by blood splattering, almost at the same time, an ear-piercing whistling sound was heard. Hundreds and thousands of ice needles poured down on Chen Zhijun like raindrops.
At first, Chen Zhijun's defensive barrier could still resist, but it was soon pierced and slowly disappeared.
Accompanied by a painful roar, the ice needles kept piercing Chen Zhijun's body. Some even directly pierced through. The scene was a little bloody. Some of the audience even closed their eyes, not daring to watch.
Chen Zhijun fell from mid-air. Huang Tianze caught him and slowly put him on the ground.
At this moment, Chen Zhijun's body and wings were full of holes and densely covered with all kinds of red dots.
When Dong Xiaomei saw that she had killed an opponent, a faint smile appeared on her face as she muttered, "I'm finally not a burden anymore …"
Before she finished speaking, she fainted.
Seeing this scene, the audience was in an uproar.
One for one.
Using a healer in exchange for a lightning technique. This was definitely not a loss. It was a profit!
This calm reaction speed in the face of danger, this meticulous step-by-step planning, and this endurance. Was this the Dong Xiaomei they knew?
Not to mention the audience, even Dong Xiuxian could not recognize his own daughter.
Seeing that his daughter was injured, his expression did not change, but his right hand trembled slightly. Seeing that his daughter had killed an opponent and fainted, his face was full of heartache and pride!
"Yunan's strength has improved very quickly!" Lin Anbang exclaimed from the side.
Dong Xiuxian nodded and got up to leave his seat.
Soon, two healers appeared at the same time. They released healing techniques and sent Dong Xiaomei and Chen Zhijun out of the arena.
Looking at the backs of the staff members, Huang Tianze's expression was a little ugly.
It was two against one, and they had the absolute advantage. However, one of them had been eliminated.
They were too careless!
Because it was Dong Xiaomei, they had underestimated their opponent too much!
If they had paid more attention, Chen Zhijun would not have been surrounded by the ice needles.
"This is really embarrassing."
Shaking his head, Huang Tianze laughed self-deprecatingly. With a spurt of spider silk, his figure moved and disappeared from the spot.
Not long after he disappeared, Yunkai appeared on the thorns. Seeing the wet ground and bloodstains, his eyes were a little uneasy.
"Have we been eliminated?"
Yunkai looked around and frowned slightly. He looked up and saw that the thick fog blocked his vision. However, he could still see through the fog. He could vaguely see that the top of the stone pillars had merged into one. He could not see the sky.
They had been sealed.
They were locked in this special cage.
On the other side, Yue Mingming, who had fallen behind, ran with all his might for two minutes but was still blocked.
Looking at Huang Zhongtian in front of him and the figures on both sides, he panted and smiled helplessly.
In this arena filled with stone pillars, not only did it restrict Lin Feng and Yunkai, but it also restricted him.
Because in such a place, the huge size of the summoned beast could not display its fighting strength. Moreover, at such a close distance, his opponent would not give him a chance to summon his beast.
Yue Mingming had the martial strength of a peak fourth-grade martial artist. Compared to the others, he had only absorbed two soul skills, both of which strengthened his spatial perception.
As a summoner, his strength lay in his summoned beasts.
Without being able to summon beasts, his strength was not even as good as Dong Xiaomei.
Facing the huge figure in front of him, his eyes were filled with despair.
At this time, Huang Zhongtian had already entered the demon transformation state. He was 2.3 meters tall and his body was covered with long and dense brown hair. His body was fat and strong, and there was a circle of black hair around his eyes. His brown-yellow pupils revealed a sense of ferocity.
Compared to his body size, his hands had changed even more. They were four to five times their original size. Like a bear's paw, they were short and thick, and covered with sharp claws.
Although Huang Zhongtian's body looked fat, he was extremely agile. His speed was even faster than Yue Mingming's, and he appeared in front of him in a few flashes.
He crossed his hands, lifted his hammer, and smashed it down. The air produced a violent wind pressure sound. Yue Mingming was helpless, and could only raise his hands to block. Without any resistance, he was smashed to the ground, face first.
Only a "bang" sound could be heard. Accompanied by a cloud of dust, Yue Mingming was motionless.
This scene caused the audience to feel pain.
His face was probably going to be disfigured, right?
"This strength is too abnormal, there's no way to resist it!"
"Demon Spiritualists are still the strongest. Fighters simply don't have the ability to resist."
"Making a fuss out of nothing. Huang Zhongtian was a peak fifth-grade martial artist who refined the Earth Ranking's Supreme Demonic Bear. Although his fame isn't as big as Linfeng's, he's still a super genius. His strength is also very strong!"
"Too violent, it hurts to watch."
The audience sighed.
Summoners were indeed powerless when facing this kind of berserker.
At this moment, the Hongyun Team only had three people left, and they haven't finished gathering yet. As for the Maleficent Team, they only had four people left. The scales of victory were already tilted towards the Maleficent Team.
What made the audience excited was that at this moment, Linfeng and Yu Qiao were rushing towards this direction.
They were just in time to see Yue Mingming being smashed to the ground.
Huang Zhongtian and the other two also saw the arrival of Linfeng and Yu Qiao.
Without any hesitation, Linfeng immediately activated "Ichthyosaur Transformation". His body expanded, and his whole body was covered with azure dragon scales. He quickly turned into a two meter three meter tall Dragon Scaled Giant. At the same time, a purple phantom appeared beside Linfeng, and gradually condensed into Linfeng's appearance. One on the left, one on the right, they quickly rushed towards Linfeng.
In such a densely packed area with stone pillars, 'Lightning Roar's' movement skill couldn't be used.
Yu Qiao followed closely behind. His feet lightly tapped on the ground, and as he flew, his figure seemed to have merged with the air and disappeared.
"Retreat!"
At this moment, Yu Yongjun, who had refined the Earth Demon Bear and looked somewhat similar to Huang Zhongtian, but his body was one size smaller.
Their mission was to assist Huang Tianze in building the spider web nest. As long as the nest was built, they would be able to control the rotation of the stone pillars. Linfeng and the other two would be lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and would be at their disposal. Thus, there was no need to directly clash with Linfeng. Perfect didn't need to take this risk.
If the battle caused too much of a commotion and attracted Yunkai, it would be even worse.
Guo Zhi obviously had the same idea. After refining Golden Armor, his body didn't change. His whole body was covered with brown scales like tiles, and the nails on his hands weren't long, but they were extremely sharp.
Golden Armor's innate skill, "Dig", was a silver soul skill. Although its rank wasn't high, it was perfect for escaping.
Just as he was about to dig a hole and escape, he heard Yu Yongjun's scolding, "Bad luck."
His footsteps paused, and he immediately turned around to take a look. However, he saw Huang Zhongtian standing in his original position. Facing the aggressive Linfeng, his yellowish-brown eyes revealed the desire to battle.
Obviously, Huang Zhongtian didn't want to escape. He wanted to defeat Linfeng!
"What's there to escape from!"
Looking at the dissatisfaction in his teammates' eyes, he roared.
If he escaped, how would he be able to display his strength?
He's also a super genius that refined the Earth Ranking's demon spirit. If it was in the previous years, he would be the focus of the audience and the darling of the media.
But this year, the attention was all on Linfeng and the rest. He wasn't any different from the other contestants.
The battle plan this time was completely coordinated with Huang Tianze, and the rest didn't have any chance to show off.
Huang Zhongtian had been suppressing his anger for a long time. At this crucial moment, when he saw Linfeng, he gave up on his original plan and decided to duel with Linfeng.
As long as he defeated Linfeng, he would be the hot topic of the news and obtain the top contract.
"Roar!"
Following an angry roar, Huang Zhongtian's body emitted a yellow light as he charged towards Linfeng, who was like a Dragon Scale Giant. When the two huge bodies collided, the air seemed to tremble.
"Boom!"
A dull sound of collision rang out. The two of them took two steps back at the same time. They seemed to be evenly matched, and neither of them had the upper hand.
And this kind of tough battle made the audience cheer excitedly.
Contrary to the audience's excitement, when they saw that Huang Zhongtian didn't retreat and even took the initiative to attack, their faces changed. Their eyes were filled with anger, but they couldn't retreat on their own.
Although they used the same soul skill, 'Earth's Core Pillar', they couldn't control another person's pillar. Without Huang Zhongtian, even if Huang Tianze's lair was completed, it wouldn't be able to display its true power.
Facing Linfeng and Yu Qiao at the same time, Huang Zhongtian wasn't their opponent. If he was eliminated, then the Maleficent Team's advantage would be gone.
Just as the two of them were about to support Huang Zhongtian, a scarlet dagger appeared out of thin air and stabbed towards Guo Zhi's throat. Guo Zhi hurriedly retreated and waved his claws. Sparks flew as the scarlet dagger disappeared.
"You two bastards, your opponent is me!"
Although Yu Qiao was invisible, his voice seemed to be right beside them, but they couldn't tell the specific direction.
The invisible Yu Qiao made Guo Zhi and Yu Qiao feel threatened. The two of them stood back to back and observed their surroundings. They had to give up on supporting Huang Zhongtian for the time being.
They had seen Yu Qiao's strength in the Rookie Challenge.
As substitutes, they couldn't be his opponent in a one on one fight.
Yu Qiao held back the two substitutes, while Linfeng began to face Huang Zhongtian head-on.
In this special situation, Bubbles couldn't be used, and Linfeng couldn't perform a suicide explosion. His strength was limited, and not only that, he couldn't use his Thundercry Movement Technique.
As for Huang Zhongtian, it didn't affect him much.
Huang Zhongtian's body emitted a dark yellow light. This color gave people a heavy feeling. Linfeng could clearly feel his body getting heavier and heavier, and the gravity was constantly increasing.
"Good soul skill!"
Looking at the dark yellow light, Linfeng thought to himself.
The Supreme Demon Bear's innate skill was "Gravity Control". It could freely control the strength of gravity within a certain range, but as the owner of the soul skill, it wouldn't be affected.
This was a very powerful innate skill that could be used for both defense and offense. It had unlimited possibilities, and if it was developed well, it was even stronger than a god-tier soul skill.
This soul skill was also a soul skill that close-combat professionals yearned for.
It was rumored that the Berserker Ye Xing had absorbed the "Gravity" soul skill twice, but both times had ended in failure.
Linfeng also wanted to have this soul skill. It was enough to raise his close-combat attacks by a level. Unfortunately, the difficulty of absorbing this soul skill was beyond imagination.
The Dragonfish was of the lightning and water attribute, so the success rate of absorbing this earth-attribute soul skill was very low.
If it was a Nightmare, it was possible, but they had to find the foreign race that had this soul skill first.
"At least five times the gravity."
Huang Zhongtian didn't attack again, but the dark yellow light in a five-meter radius became denser and denser, and the gravity was constantly increasing. Five times the gravity made Linfeng feel as if he had fallen into a quagmire, and even the surrounding air became thin.
The summoned doppelganger was even more unbearable, and the pressure was even greater.
It wasn't difficult to escape this gravity area, but Linfeng could only fight in this gravity area if he wanted to defeat his opponent.
Huang Zhongtian clearly understood this point, so he wasn't worried that Linfeng would escape. He took a few steps forward and appeared in front of Linfeng. His right hand was like a bear's paw, and with a whistling sound, he slapped towards Linfeng's face.
Linfeng wanted to dodge, but his speed was affected by the gravity, and his body was also very heavy. He couldn't make it in time, and could only raise his right arm to block. Accompanied by an ear-piercing sound of metal colliding, he was directly sent flying and crashed into a stone pillar.
The stone pillar shook slightly, and its surface cracked like a spider web.
If it wasn't for Linfeng's strong defense, Yu Qiao would've fallen to the ground from this attack.
Before Linfeng could get up, Huang Zhongtian appeared in front of Linfeng once again, and waved his right hand.
However, he didn't continue this time.
Because Linfeng's arms seemed to have been ignited by flames. The translucent flames weren't hot, and instead contained a trace of coldness. However, this caused Huang Zhongtian's expression to change.
Diamond Soul Skill, Demonic Flame.
It didn't cause much damage to the body, but it could burn the soul, bringing unbearable pain.
"Come!"
Linfeng chuckled, and his smile contained a trace of viciousness.
Under the gravity, although his speed was severely affected, he still charged towards Huang Zhongtian.
At this moment, Huang Zhongtian's entire body was flickering with golden light. When the light dissipated, an earthy yellow armour covered his entire body.
The huge armour looked a little cumbersome, but it gave him a strong defense.
Facing the transformed Huang Zhongtian, Lin Feng's strength was suppressed by Huang Zhongtian's Ichthyosaur Transformation. Those who refined bear-type demon spirits had thick skin and flesh, and were famous for their strength.
This was especially true for the Earth Ranking's Supreme Demonic Bear.
Lin Feng's strength was suppressed, and his reaction speed and speed were also suppressed due to 'gravity'. In addition to the limited environment, Lin Feng was suppressed by Huang Zhongtian for a while and suffered a lot. Seven or eight bloody wounds appeared on his body. It was only when Huang Zhongtian's doppelganger joined the battle and the three of them started to wrestle with each other. Only when Huang Zhijun's Devil Flame touched Huang Zhijun's arm did the situation reverse.
Fist to fist, flesh to flesh, and the three of them no longer had any rules. They were competing in strength and ruthlessness. This violent and bloody scene made one's blood boil.
