Chapter 1138 Murong Xue’s Defense
Chapter 1138  Murong Xue’s Defense

Murong Xue pursed her lips and said disapprovingly, “Tsk, isn’t it because you weren’t strong enough? If you’re strong enough, what’s the point of letting go of the giant lion on the other side?”

Ye Yifan also expressed some dissatisfaction, saying, “Luo Wei, this kid. His luck was really good. He got a random individual reward. He’s really lucky.”

This undoubtedly stirred up complex feelings in Ye Yifan’s heart.

On the one hand, he had a good relationship with Luo Wei. They were old teammates. Seeing Luo Wei’s strength increase made Ye Yifan naturally happy for him.

On the other hand, whenever Ye Yifan thought about how Luo Wei used to be his subordinate, always following his orders, and how his strength had always been inferior, it made him feel uncomfortable.

But now, it seemed that Luo Wei’s strength was gradually catching up.

Especially this time, Luo Wei had been lucky enough to obtain a generous personal reward. His strength had increased significantly, widening the gap between him and Ye Yifan.

Being surpassed by his former subordinate, and even being left far behind, this disparity made Ye Yifan feel very uncomfortable.

The battle between the Origin Territory and the Lion Territory continued.

In the first small match, Ye Yifan defeated a giant lion and emerged victorious. Then, he chose to admit defeat in the second small match.

After that, Luo Wei defeated the second giant lion.

Facing the third giant lion, Luo Wei fought fiercely but was ultimately defeated. He still couldn’t manage to finish off two giant lions by himself.

However, such a result was already quite remarkable.

After all, Luo Wei’s strength was inferior to the giant lion’s.

To be able to perform so well despite being weaker, almost winning against two, was already a commendable achievement. Luo Wei was already quite impressive.

Following that, it was Murong Xue and Allen Smith’s battle.

Murong Xue seized an opportunity and easily defeated the giant lion that Luo Wei had worn down. Then, relying on her strength, she successfully dealt with the second giant lion. However, when facing the third giant lion, Murong Xue was still no match.

Murong Xue had a very stubborn temperament. Even when she was outmatched, she refused to admit defeat. She gritted her teeth and continued to fight until she was seriously injured, only then reluctantly choosing to surrender.

Only Murong Xue’s defense was formidable. If it were another contestant who was outmatched, she probably wouldn’t have had the chance to leave the battlefield safely and would have perished long ago.

After Murong Xue left the battlefield, she was heavily injured but still wore a look of defiance.

“I’m still a bit weak. If I were stronger, I would be able to defeat the giant lion!” Murong Xue lamented with some frustration.

Ning Shanshan and Liu Qingrou quickly surrounded Murong Xue, offering support.

“How are you feeling? Let’s rest and treat your injuries,” Liu Qingrou said, taking out a healing potion to help Murong Xue with temporary treatment.

Ning Shanshan was a bit exasperated. “You are outmatched, yet you insisted on continuing until you were so badly injured. It’s too risky.”

Ning Shanshan, usually aloof, was now showing rare concern for Murong Xue’s safety.

Despite just facing a life-threatening situation and being seriously injured, Murong Xue’s eyes still gleamed with stubbornness.

“I’m fine.”

Murong Xue waved her hand. “I just wanted to test my limits. Even if I couldn’t defeat the giant lion, it wouldn’t be able to keep me on the battlefield. It wouldn’t kill me.”

Ning Shanshan and the others remained somewhat worried. After all, they had witnessed Murong Xue’s perilous situation on the battlefield.

However, Liu Yan, Ye Yifan, and the others were well aware of Murong Xue’s formidable defensive capabilities. Naturally, they weren’t very concerned.

Even if the giant lion was only one star stronger than Murong Xue, or even three stars stronger, it wouldn’t be able to kill her.

After all, Murong Xue had faced opponents stronger than herself before and had never backed down.

Murong Xue’s defensive abilities far surpassed her star level.

Although it appeared that Murong Xue had sustained serious injuries in the battle and was in mortal danger, in reality, it wasn’t the case. The injuries she sustained were superficial, and the giant lion couldn’t harm her.

Ye Yifan reassured Ning Shanshan. “Sister Ning, don’t worry. Murong Xue has been through many situations like this. They can’t pose a threat to her.”

Luo Wei nodded in agreement. “Yes, Murong Xue’s defensive capabilities are quite remarkable.”

Ning Shanshan looked at them skeptically, then turned to Liu Yan for confirmation.

Seeing her expression, Liu Yan nodded slightly in confirmation. Murong Xue’s offensive capabilities might be average, but her defensive abilities were extraordinary.

The giant lion on the other side posed no real threat to Murong Xue.

At that moment, Murong Xue had already cleaned the blood off her body and temporarily treated her wounds. She stood up without assistance, looking lively and ready to continue fighting.

It was only then that Ning Shanshan and Liu Qingrou realized that Murong Xue’s injuries were superficial. She hadn’t sustained any serious harm.

“I didn’t expect Murong Xue’s defense to be so strong,” Liu Qingrou said with a smile. “She didn’t even suffer any serious injuries.”

“Then what about the way you were beaten up the whole time?” Ning Shanshan was puzzled. “I thought the injury was serious!”

Murong Xue scratched her head. Facing everyone’s gaze, she smiled awkwardly and said, “Cough, cough, my defense is very strong. That giant lion can’t hurt me. However, my offensive ability is relatively ordinary. I can’t hurt the giant lion at all. That’s why I was suppressed the entire time. Sigh!”

When everyone heard this, they couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

The few experts who didn’t know Murong Xue well enough before this gradually understood her situation after this battle. Murong Xue’s metal-farming ability was weak, but in contrast, her defensive ability was extremely exaggerated.

At this time, the Will of Tower announced that the next small battle was about to begin. Team Origin also needed to send out their next player.

Everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but fall on Alan Smith.

According to their prior discussion, the rookies would naturally go first, and the weaker the rookies, the more they would go first.

Up until now, Ye Yifan, Luo Wei, and Murong Xue had already gone up to the stage respectively, and all of them had achieved good results.

Up until now, only the last rookie, Allen Smith, had yet to go on stage. At the same time, Allen Smith was also the strongest member of the Origin Territory’s rookie team other than Liu Yan.

Ye Yifan, Luo Wei, and Murong Xue all wanted to see how far Alan Smith’s strength had grown. They wanted to see how big the gap between them and Alan Smith was.

Ye Yifan, Luo Wei, and Murong Xue were all clear that Lu Dajiang and the others were old hands. It was normal for them to be stronger than them. After all, Lu Dajiang and the others had been training in the Wind Barrier on the sixth level of the tower for two and a half years. Their strength had grown a lot, so it was normal for them to be stronger than them.

It was meaningless to compare them to Liu Yan. After all, in their understanding, Liu Yan was a monster-like existence. He was not something ordinary humans like them could compare to.

In the end, the most suitable person for comparison was Alan Smith.

Alan Smith was the strongest member of Team Origin apart from Liu Yan.

Ye Yifan and the others were able to see their progress during this period by comparing their strength with Alan Smith. They could also clearly see the gap between them and the top genius Alan Smith.

This time, it was a good opportunity to observe Alan Smith’s strength.

While Ye Yifan and the other rookies were looking forward to Alan Smith’s strength, Lu Dajiang and the other seniors were the same.

Ever since they joined the Origin Territory, Lu Dajiang and the others had gradually discovered that although the original members of the Origin Territory were all rookies, their strength could not be compared to the elders. There was still a certain gap between their strength and the elders.

However, Lu Dajiang and the others also gradually discovered that this batch of rookies had terrifying talent. They were far more powerful than them at the same time back then.

Even if they didn’t count Liu Yan who was like a monster, many of the rookies in the Origin Territory were talented.

Among these geniuses, Alan Smith was undoubtedly the most talented one.

Lu Dajiang and the others had long been curious about Alan Smith’s strength.

This battle was undoubtedly a good test of Alan Smith’s true strength.
