373 Known Victory and Defeat!

Tian Du City.

The First Academy.

Lu Ming was drowned in the striking red light…

Everyone was very worried.

“Did he lose?”

“I don’t think so. There is no barbecue smell.”

“I’m not smelling anything either,” everyone whispered.

This moment…

A huge pit appeared at the spot where Lu Ming had been. The impact of the red light had caused a great deal of damage. Smoke and dust filled the sky and one could not catch a clear glimpse of what was happening inside.

Everyone widened their eyes and tried to see what was going on. However, just at this moment…

Bang!

A thick laser beam shot out from that layer of dust and smoke!

Swoosh!

Red lights dazzled!

The students were shocked.

What the hell is that?

Could it be that Yan Suya has already reached the stage whereby she could control such lasers with ease?

However, they were unaware of something. Yan Suya was also staring at this scene in disbelief. She did not know how these red lights had come about!

What’s going on?

Yan Suya was puzzled.

Nevertheless, she had gone through numerous combats and came to a realization very quickly — Reflection!!!

She had once seen similar abilities from a cultivator with mirror techniques. He was very powerful and had once reflected her other abilities!

Reflection…

Yan Suya finally understood.

She would deal with Lu Ming later. Right now, she had to settle this laser beam! Because the sudden reflection occurred too quickly, she did not have much time to prepare a defense.

Nevertheless, this was an ability that she had cast and she understood it very well!

This Eye of Flame had many advantages. It was fast, accurate, could lock on to the target and so on. However, it also had a fatal shortcoming!

And that was…

It was afraid of ice!

Due to its special constitution, a layer of ice was enough to block it!

Hence…

Yan Suya waved her hands.

Shush!

A beam of thick ice wall condensed and shielded the front of her like a mountain.

In that case…

It could easily block it…

Swoosh!

Red lights flashed.

That mountain-like thick layer of ice which was akin to a shield was perforated. The dazzling red light penetrated the ice wall and blasted Yan Suya without any mercy!

Yan Suya’s eyes widened greatly. This power…

No!

This is not the Eye of Flame!

It was impossible for the Eye of Flame to be that powerful! It not only disregarded its greatest weakness but also was stronger in terms of tenacity and temperature!

To hell with it!

What exactly is…

Bang!

There was an outburst of red lights!

She was drowned by an endless glow.

Wow—

There was another outburst of red lights!

It dazzled the sky!

Everyone was dumbstruck.

During the last moment, they were watching to see if Lu Ming had become well done… In the next moment, they saw the red light dashing back and blasting Yan Suya…

What happened?

Was Lu Ming able to cast the ability as well?!

Could it be that…

This was also a core ability of the Sword Card Master vocation?!

Nevertheless, some teachers of the school noticed the clues.

“Reflection.”

“It’s not only reflection but also strengthening.”

The teachers were discussing in hushed tones. Their eyes were filled with amazement when they looked at Lu Ming. Having reached this stage despite being a four-star, he had already surpassed everyone present!

Sword Card Master…

This vocation was more valiant than they had imagined!

“Then Miss Xiaoya…”

“Don’t need to worry about her. She is close to seven-star and not someone that we need to worry about.”

“You’re right.”

The teachers could not hold back their smiles.

At this very moment…

In the huge pit, dust and smoke settled and Lu Ming’s figure emerged.

“This should have had some effect, right?”

Lu Ming looked grim.

Seven-parts sealing!

He made use of his ultra-high one hundred thousand energy points and cast the seven-parts sealing on an ability which was beyond him. Besides absorbing most of the energy, it also gave him some time to dodge…

Yes.

Miss Yan Suya’s attack was too powerful and Lu Ming could not completely absorb it!

He only absorbed a part of that terrifying red laser light. The remaining part blasted beneath his feet and thus created a huge pit!

The absorption of the energy bought him time to dodge the remaining attack.

Afterward… was the retaliation.

The seven-parts sealing and integration of such a large scale ability became extremely terrifying during his retaliation. Although the distance covered was shorter, the laser was much thicker!

Hence…

The rest was history.

Yan Suya did not manage to block it…

“I hope there will be some effect.”

Lu Ming was hopeful.

Of course, he wanted to beat this lady.

However…

That was very unlikely.

This lady was too terrifying. Each of her moves tested Lu Ming’s ultimate combat ability! He was almost pressured to death during the sealing!

Everyone knew that it was impossible for Yan Suya to be defeated!

The only question was —

What would be the extent of her injuries?

Lu Ming looked on seriously until he sensed a faint current from the red lights.

This aura…

“Oh no!”

Lu Ming’s expression changed drastically. “Let’s go!”

He stimulated the Original Card and fled to the sky immediately.

“What’s the matter?”

Xiao-Xiaojian was somewhat puzzled.

“She has absorbed all the energy that I shot out.”

Lu Ming looked grim.

“Absorbed?”

Xiao-Xiaojian was stunned.

To hell with it!

What was the level of the reflected powers?!

Absorbed…?

This lady’s true strength…

At that very moment…

Bang!

There was a deafening sound.

Lu Ming looked back.

At the spot where Yan Suya stood, that red light contracted, transformed into an even more exaggerated form and then exploded, engulfing the entire field…

The sky.

Underground.

With Yan Suya as the epicenter, the laser was blasted at an angle of 360 degrees. Even Lu Ming, who was in the sky, did not manage to escape…

Wow—

The flames swept across the field!

In that instant, the entire field turned into a land of flames!

Red!

Endless red!

“This is…”

Everyone was in shock.

“The Purgatory Realm!”

“She actually learned this!”

Even some teachers could not help but stand up.

The Purgatory Realm!

This was a top-notch ability in the hearts of every Elementalist!

It did not have any lethality or defense function, its only function was to transform an area into a Purgatory Realm and awaken all the fire elements!

All the fire elements seemed to have come alive! The effects of all the elemental abilities would multiply! The combat ability would more than double!

In it… the Elementalist was the only king!

This was the Purgatory Realm!

A top-notch ability for all the Elementalists!

It was unmatchable.

…

Swoosh!

The flames burned.

The audience could no longer catch a clear glimpse of the field.

Through the burning flames, everything in the field was blurry and distorted. Fortunately, they could vaguely see two figures in a confrontation.

“Lu Ming is going to be a goner…”

“This can’t be avoided. Yan Suya released a powerful move.”

“It’s too terrifying. I thought she was just playing along and didn’t expect her to be infuriated.”

“But then again, you guys call her Miss Xiaoya. Damn it. She’s clearly a queen…”

The students were discussing amongst themselves in trembling voices.

Where was the young lady?!

The person who appeared in front of them was clearly a queen!

Although they could not catch a clear glimpse of what Yan Suya looked like currently, they could see the fiery, red crown above her head and the flaming wings behind her.

It turned out that…

This was the Yan Suya in her complete combat state!

Domineering!

Terrifying!

One by one, the unconvinced association disciples who were once beaten by Yan Suya fell silent.

It was no wonder those seniors said that she was the closest presence to a seven-star. It turned out that she was already that powerful. She was extremely close to becoming a seven-star!

…

At this very moment…

In the field, Lu Ming also looked very dumbstruck, especially once he saw the lady’s transformation. Obviously, this lady’s strength was already beyond his understanding. She had even used the Purgatory Realm. What else could he expect?!

He had heard of this ability before because it was too famous!

However…

Do you have to use this kind of huge, lethal move when facing a four-star at the on-campus job fair?

Not too far in the distance.

Miss Xiaoya had completed her transformation.

She was shrouded in flames, resembling a burning Empress Flame [1. Empress Flame is a fictional character in The Five Star Stories, a manga series created by Mamoru Nagano, building on his work on the anime series Heavy Metal L-Gaim]. With the exaggerated fiery, red wings and attire, she looked like a young lady in the comics who had come alive…

Fiery, flaming wings?

Lu Ming was filled with emotions.

He had once seen this before. The nostalgia increased by 16 points…

Swoosh!

There was an outburst of flames.

Yan Suya looked at Lu Ming coldly with a murderous glint in her eyes.

Lu Ming felt very upset. “Miss, who would cast such a huge move that soon…”

Yan Suya wore a cold and icy expression.

“It’s true.”

Lu Ming sighed. “As a presence close to seven-star, you cast such a huge move on a four-star like me. It was not necessary. At the very least, let me display the Sword Card Master’s powers before I lose…”

However…

Yan Suya was still cold and aloof.

“Let’s end this.”

Yan Suya waved her hands.

Swoosh!

Lu Ming was drowned by the endless flames.

Yes.

There was no move.

There was no ability.

With a casual wave of her hands, she could control all the flames in the entire Purgatory Realm easily. This was the top-notch ability of the fire element indeed!

“Let’s go!”

Lu Ming instinctively wanted to fly.

Click!

Click!

Bolts of fire chains extended from the ground and chained him directly. He was trapped on the ground.

Lu Ming was speechless.

Well…

He was given the treatment of a great demon king.

This lady…

He glanced at Yan Suya and sensed that this lady was truly enraged! Why? Because he ad retaliated once?

That was strange.

Shush!

The flames were raging.

Yan Suya gathered the flames and was prepared to kill Lu Ming.

“Why do you have to do this?”

Lu Ming sighed.

Just as he finished his words, he lifted a card with his hand!

Bang!

The Moonlight Card was cast and Lu Ming was surrounded by dazzling moonlight.

Yan Suya furrowed her brows tightly and moved a step back.

Bang!

Moonlight landed!

Lu Ming’s combat ability increased tremendously!

His original plan was very simple. He would release a huge move to fight this. Although he knew that the chances were slim, he could at least display the powers of a Sword Card Master!

However, when the Moonlight Card landed…

Swoosh!

The surrounding flames actually receded slightly.

Yes.

The chains that trapped him were dissipated by the moonlight.

Eh?

Lu Ming’s heart jumped a beat.

This moonlight…

Furthermore, he acutely noticed that Yan Suya deliberately dodged when the moonlight landed. Did this mean that…

The moonlight could contain the flames?

That was interesting.

If that was the case…

There was a way to stop it!

Shush!

Lu Ming raised a stack of Moonlight Cards with his hands. “Lady, do you know Sailor Moon?”

Yan Suya frowned slightly.

“Who is Sailor Moon?”

“You’ll know very soon.”

Lu Ming smiled faintly.

Shush!

A card in his hands was instantly activated and he hollered, “Moon Prism Power: Make Up!”

Shush!

A card dissipated and the target this time was — Yan Suya!

Oh no!

Yan Suya instinctively defended herself. However, this pure incremental ability was not defined as an attack. At the very least, her defense technique did not come into play.

Afterward…

Bang!

Bang!

Beams of moonlight perforated Yan Suya.

Afterward…

Lu Ming was dumbstruck immediately.

It was true.

His original plan was to use the Moonlight Card to dispel the flames around Yan Suya. This could reduce Yan Suya’s combat ability significantly. However, in reality…

Even after the flames were dispelled, the augmentation effect of the Moonlight Card would make Yan Suya stronger!

After all…

Fire element was the only thing that this lady knew!

Therefore, what did an ultimate peak six-star + Moonlight Card augmentation = quasi seven-star mean?

Think about it.

Of course.

This was not the main point.

The main point was that Lu Ming had been feeling very strange about something. Miss Yan Suya did not have an eccentric temper. Why was she suddenly enraged? Why did she suddenly cast such a huge move…

Why did she have to cast the Purgatory Realm to seal the field…

However…

He understood fully now!!!

In that flaming Purgatory Realm, a cold beam flashed across the lady strengthened by the moonlight and Lu Ming caught a clear glimpse of something that he should not have seen…

Oh.

Damn!

It turned out that the seven-parts sealing retaliation had destroyed her clothes…

Hence…

Yan Suya’s gaze at Lu Ming turned even colder.

Lu Ming was speechless.

Wow—

The flames burned.

The humongous wings and flaming crown appeared. Yan Suya consumed a large amount of flame power and transformed again, dispelling all the power in her body that was multiplied by the moonlight!

“Sorry.”

Lu Ming sighed.

He paused for a moment and retracted the uncast Moonlight Cards in his hands.

Yan Suya’s gaze swept across him. She was obviously surprised.

She was well aware that Lu Ming were to throw out all those cards, she would become more powerful but the power of flames would also disappear!

Her attire condensed by flames would also lose its effect.

Therefore…

She would definitely leave the field of her own accord.

Lu Ming would attain victory then.

“Am I going to achieve victory in this way?”

Lu Ming mocked himself. “Sorry, I really can’t bring myself to do that.”

The earlier move was an accident and unintentional damage was inevitable. However, if he were to deliberately smash the Moonlight Cards despite knowing the outcome, that would be too shameless.

He would rather forgo such a victory.

Yan Suya’s gaze softened a little. “If that’s the case, you will have to lose.”

“It may not necessarily be the case!”

Lu Ming took a deep breath. “Let’s fight openly!”

“Bring it on.”

Yan Suya nodded slightly.

There were misunderstandings and they had been fooling around for the past few moves. But now, this combat had obviously reached its final stage, though Lu Ming did not have the slightest chance!

Furthermore…

She could also guess Lu Ming’s next move!

“It has begun!”

The hearts of the students at the audience seat trembled.

They had a blurry view from afar and could only see a part of the combat through the Purgatory Realm. Nevertheless, this did not prevent from being able to tell that a final stage of the combat was going to commence!

“It’s sheer pity for Lu Ming.”

“Yes, he would not lose if he had competed with a disciple from the other associations.”

“Exactly.”

The students felt regretful.

The disciples of the other associations were speechless.

What did this have to do with us?

Lu Ming was the one who had sought a challenge!

Furthermore…

On what basis is Lu Ming stronger than us?! He is just a four-star. Even if you can skip levels in combat and possess one ability to attack six-stars, it is only one ability!

Other people are not fools and can defeat you by draining your energy.

It was a pity…

No one paid attention to them.

Everyone held a unanimous view — Although Lu Ming would be defeated, it would be a glorious defeat!

…

Buzz—

The Original Card in Lu Ming’s hands transformed into the blue hues of the Moonlight Card.

Yes.

The Original Card had also been strengthened.

Lu Ming had also strengthened earlier!

He and Xiao-Xiaojian were in their peak state now!

“Come on.”

Yan Suya wore a calm expression.

If she had never come into contact with this move before, it might be troublesome. Unfortunately, she had already seen this move from Zhao Yunshan earlier…

It was the same move!

Especially this kind of move that could catch the opponents by surprise and defeat them…

He would not have a chance to defeat her as she had already seen it once.

Shush!

At this moment, the Original Card in Lu Ming’s hands shone and entered the Lunar Shadow legacy state of two becoming one. They dashed toward the opponent!

“Lightning Slash!”

Buzz—

Time stopped!

There were only the traces of the Original Card streaking across like lightning.

Lu Ming was full of anticipation.

Before…

The four-star Lu Ming had killed six-stars instantly! He was a peak four-star now. He was certain that he could defeat a peak six-star.

‘ll show you the prowess of having a hundred thousand points of energy!

Shush!

Cold lights flashed.

The Original Card streaked across the air, toward Yan Suya’s neck.

However…

At this moment.

A fair and slender hand suddenly reached out to pinch and stop the card, which was left with its afterimage in the air!

Lightning Slash…

It was a failure!

Shush!

There was a loud gasp from the crowd.

She was very powerful!

True enough…

It was Yan Suya, indeed!

She had terrifying combat ability!

This move released by Lu Ming was a great threat to peak six-stars. The prowess was astounding. However, such a terrifying move had been stopped by Yan Suya with one pinch!!!

Demonic prowess?!

“It’s over.”

Everyone sighed.

This time, even the Sword Card Master Association was silent.

This was the ultimate move!

Peak six-star!

This was already Lu Ming’s limit!

Although he had already surpassed countless people after casting all means and releasing this peak six-star move, Yan Suya managed to stop this ability with a pinch.

“Is your sister that powerful?”

Xiaobai looked at Yan Suqi.

“Yes.”

Yan Suqi felt proud and worried at the same time.

He felt proud because of his sister’s prowess but worried for his master!

“Hmm…”

Xiaobai was deep in her thoughts.

She was very worried about Master. Hence, after pondering for a moment, her gaze suddenly landed on Yan Suqi. “If I give you a round of bashings now, will your sister give up on the fight and come here?”

Eh?

Li Haoran and the group thought about it carefully. This was very logical!

Tears welled up in Yan Suqi’s eyes instantly. Who did I provoke?!

…

Right then…

Everyone knew that it was going to be over.

The vocation core represented the most sturdy and powerful weapon of a vocation. That was the lifeline of a cultivator! But now…

Miss Xiaoya was holding onto Lu Ming’s lifeline.

How are they going to continue with the fight?

Buzz—

Buzz—

Xiao-Xiaojian struggled several times but could not break away.

Yan Suya’s two fair fingers were pinching it tightly… However, just at this moment, an afterimage unexpectedly appeared in front of Yan Suya’s chest…

Pfft!

Cold lights flashed.

A faint streak of blood flashed.

Time seemed to have frozen at this moment.

Yan Suya touched the trace of blood on her neck and glanced at that thing which suddenly drifted to her in disbelief — It was a familiar card!

What the hell is this?

Confused, Yan Suya looked at the moonlight-powered Original Card in her hands and then at the Original Card which appeared in front of her.

“Why is there another Original Card??”

Lu Ming smiled faintly. “Have you heard of dual wielding swords… Cough… Dual wielding cards?”

Yes.

Dual wielding cards!

This was an extension of the Original Card!

Finally…

He had created it!

Based on the rules of the school on a challenge, when blood could be seen on injuries to certain vital and weak points of the body, it was considered a victory! You even had to thank the other party for showing mercy.

Now, Yan Suya’s neck had been scratched by Lu Ming’s card.

It was very faint.

It was very light.

But a trace of blood could be seen.

For this on-campus job fair, Lu Ming was the victor.
