"Damn it, I'm supposed to take that guy on! what do you think you're doing?" Gamennon of the Greek team yelled, and hurried over to the area where Ai Jiangtu was .
Gamennon was an absolute madman . He totally disregarded the pact between the two allied teams . He broke into Ai Jiangtu's space and knocked him flying, just so he could take on Zorro on himself .
Ai Jiangtu was infuriated . The man was obviously stirring up trouble with him . He activated the trap of the Cursed Evil Spider to affect both Zorro and Gamennon!
Since the Greek team had broken the pact first, there was no need for Ai Jiangtu to keep calm!
The crimson-red silk of the evil spider densely scattered across the place when the curse was triggered, covering an area of two hundred meters . When the silk touched the trees not far away, the trees wilted away rapidly .
The Curse was just as effective against Zorro and Gamennon . The two did not dare stay in the area any longer . They quickly fled in two different directions .
Zorro was slightly quicker because of his Wind Element . As soon as he left the spider silk, Gamennon quickly chased after him like a mad hound . He cast a Light Spell and fired a bunch of light arrows at Zorro .
These light arrows were very good at tracing their targets down . While Zorro was nimbly dodging the arrows, he realized that he had been tagged by a Seal on his back that allowed the light arrows to pursue him relentlessly!
"You two, I guess I've been going too easy on you!" Zorro was extremely annoyed . After getting rid of the light arrows, he started spinning in place .
The white winds spun at an incredible pace and turned into long whips, lashing at Ai Jiangtu and Gamennon . The wind whips struck the ground and the trees, leaving scars across the place .
"Since you're so eager to show off your strength, I'll let you handle the winds instead!" Gamennon glanced at Ai Jiangtu and suddenly unleashed the restraining power of the Shadow Element .
Gamennon swiftly left the area being lashed by the winds, but restricted Ai Jiangtu's movement to prevent him from leaving the area!
"You won't be going anywhere either!" Ai Jiangtu was clearly not going to fall for it . His eyes glittered as he used his will to drag Gamennon out of the shadow, and applied the Gravitational Space to Gamennon . The smug man immediately noticed that he was struggling to move his feet!
—
The alliance between the Chinese team and the Greek team was not firm to begin with . After Gamennon took the initiative to break the pact, the battle between the three teams was suddenly a lot messier .
Seeing the situation was getting out of control, Mo Fan immediately backed away to preserve his strength and energy .
Mo Fan had expended too much of his energy when the Chinese team was picked on by the two teams . Knowing that he only had half of his energy left, he was unwilling to go all out before he could assert control over the situation .
"That idiot, why couldn't he wait until we eliminated the English team?" Asha'ruiya was displeased when she saw Gamennon breaking the truce between the two teams .
She seriously did not understand why the Greek team chose such a brainless man to be their captain . It explained why they had lost to the cunning Egyptians!
"Mo Fan, we'll pretend to be fighting one another close to a member of the English team, and find a chance to take him out," Asha'ruiya knew that the three teams were soon going to end up fighting one another . Everyone had been waiting to vent their frustrations, no one would care if they were still one another's ally .
"Good idea!" Mo Fan agreed with Asha'ruiya's suggestion . "Let's take that guy with fair skin out . He has been staring at me for a long time . I bet he wants to take me out to make a name for himself!"
"Sure!"
Mo Fan teamed up with Asha'ruiya again to set up the man who had just entered the match .
It was true that the man was planning to take Mo Fan out to earn himself some fame . Even an obstinate man could tell the two were putting up an act from the expressions and the looks in their eyes . Mo Fan had pretended to provoke the man when Asha'ruiya suddenly came and attacked him…
"You little b**ch, didn't you promise you won't hurt our team? Look at what Gamennon is doing . That's nothing like what you've promised me in bed last night!" Mo Fan yelled when he saw Asha'ruiya playing along with the act .
The English mage with a pale face was startled . He looked at Mo Fan and Asha'ruiya in disbelief .
These two had actually made a deal with their flesh . Such a disgrace, so infuriating… why didn't Asha'ruiya choose me instead!?
"Shut up, or I will cut your tongue off!" Asha'ruiya snapped furiously . Pieces of black armor appeared and covered her body . Even her glamorous face was covered by a silver mask, while her hair was tied up in a ponytail, reaching her waist like a waterfall .
Black energy erupted from Asha'ruiya's body . Mo Fan suddenly felt like the woman had turned into a completely different person, like she was possessed by some black energy!
A long sword engraved with patterns appeared in her hand . The black aura silhouetted a black unicorn approaching from the distance, at a speed comparable to a flash of lightning .
"What the hell, you can transform too?" Mo Fan was stunned .
Asha'ruiya was fully covered in black armor while holding a dark sword . If it wasn't for her alluring body, Mo Fan would have thought a female Dark Swordmaster had appeared out of nowhere!
"It seems like you are completely clueless about what Dark Magic can do!" Asha'ruiya's voice appeared from the silver mask .
The black unicorn was approaching rapidly . Mo Fan suddenly felt the light in the surroundings was being accumulated on the tip of the sword that Asha'ruiya was holding . The tip was emitting a deadly beam!
The sword stabbed forward, followed by multiple afterimages . After Asha'ruiya put on the black armor, it was like she had transformed from a Mage to a female Dark Swordmaster . Her speed, strength, and power were comparable to the Dark Swordmaster that Mo Fan had fought against!
Mo Fan was very quick at dodging the stab, yet the sword glow still pierced his shoulder . The blood only started pouring out of the cut after a few seconds, just when the pain came . It felt burning first, before it felt like his shoulder had just exploded!
"Are you for real?" Mo Fan grinned . The injury was barely anything serious .
"I thought we were putting up a realistic act," Asha'ruiya smiled .
"I bet you're the most cunning and dangerous person here," Mo Fan replied seriously .

"I can't help it if that's what you think of me," Asha'ruiya responded lightly .
"Actually, I was quite bothered by one thing . It really hurts my ego," Mo Fan said .
"Tell me about it," Asha'ruiya lifted her sword as she straightened her upper body . Her slender body was extremely alluring when wrapped tightly by the black armor . Her skinny ankles formed a great contrast with her muscular thighs!
"You said I was no match for you on Mount Tyrant, so I'm pretty interested to see how strong you are!" Mo Fan stomped the ground, engulfing himself in both the Calamity Fire and Rose Flame . The fierce flames attached to Mo Fan like a blazing red robe, and the scorching heat clashed with Asha'ruiya's dark energy .
The bright flames and the pitch-black darkness formed a clear boundary . A strong aura of destruction rose as the two types of energy clashed!
Their appearanced were unlike any ordinary Mages . Mo Fan was engulfed in flames after he was Possessed by Little Flame Belle . The exploding flames had transformed him into a fiery figure . Meanwhile, Asha'ruiya had obtained the power of the Dark Swordmaster through the Dark Contract, turning herself into a Dark Swordmistress . The English mage suddenly found himself in an awkward situation, as he did not have any way to transform himself!
The English mage, Muwen by name, decided to attack both Mo Fan and Asha'ruiya simultaneously . The only way for him to make a name was to boldly challenge the strongest destructive mage, Mo Fan, and the Candidate for the role of the Goddess .
A petrifying power burst out of Muwen's eyes . The trees, soil, and river were turned into a hard rocky substance quickly . The energy rapidly approached Mo Fan and Asha'ruiya .
"Go away!"
"Piss off!"
Both Mo Fan and Asha'ruiya fought back as Muwen attacked .
Mo Fan Summoned the Flame Sword and slashed forward . The flames surged at the English mage like a fierce tide .
Asha'ruiya's black sword moved at lightning speed and swept past Muwen in the blink of an eye .
The fiery tide and the sword shadow both landed on Muwen . The man stood no chance against their attacks . He was instantly covered in wounds and bruises as he fell to the scorched ground, shrouded by two different auras .

The difference in strength was way too ridiculous . Muwen was clearly not on the same level as either of them . He would have struggled fighting either of them, let alone facing both of them!
—
The assistant judge had recognized Muwen . He grumbled as he dragged the severely injured away, "Why would you even bother intervening in their fight?"
Muwen felt an urge to cry too . He knew those two were strong, but he did not expect their strength to be this ridiculous . He was bullied like a dog, when he was already an elite on the English team . He began to doubt the meaning of his life .
How was their ability in close combat so remarkable when they were Mages, just like everyone else!?
—
Asha'ruiya was incredibly fast . Even though her strength was not as overwhelming as the Dark Swordmaster that was able to destroy an entire troop of Battlemages with a single slash, Mo Fan was having a hard time defending against the woman's rapid slashes . To make it worse, she was also an expert of the Space Element .
When the woman utilized the Sword Shadow Strikes of the Dark Swordmaster and the Space Element's Blink at the same time, Mo Fan felt like she was everywhere around him, making it impossible for him to trace her down!
"Try to run from this! Volcano Fist!" Mo Fan slammed his fist on the ground .
The ground cracked open as scorching lava poured out fiercely . It started with nine burning pillars, but more pillars began to show up and connect in the pattern of the Nine Palaces . It eventually turned into a huge, roaring volcanic crater!
Chapter 1127: 1127

As the fiery pillars emerged from the ground, a curvy, black silhouette slid across the ground strangely . The pillars of lava were always slightly slower, and would only devour the afterimages left behind by her .
When the entire volcanic crater appeared, Asha'ruiya was already a hundred meters away . She tipped the foot before her up slightly, raising the sword in front of her . The sword was almost invisibly thin, splitting her perfect body in half…
The black sword reflected both sides of her silver mask . It was impossible to tell what expression she was wearing, but her demeanor was imposing, with the icy aura of a soldier that was ready to face death .
"One-Word Slash!"
{TL Note: It literally implies the slash is like the Chinese character '一' which means one . }
She remained still as a statue, but as she uttered the words, a dark aura rapidly contracted toward Asha'ruiya's foot like a ring…
More rings of dark auras contracted rapidly and accumulated at her foot .
Suddenly, the dark glow erupted under Asha'ruiya's foot in the shape of a deathly lotus!
Her sword swept forward like a black raven gliding along the ground . The icy afterimage pierced through everything, including Mo Fan's wildly erupting volcanic crater!
Whoosh! The sound it produced was incredibly short, yet shocking . The volcanic crater was slashed in half .
The woman was so quick that it felt like she had blinked to the other side of the volcanic crater as soon as the lotus blossomed . The dark lotus slowly dissipated, but the woman was still lifting her sword in front of her, as if she had never moved it!
Blood sprayed across the place like a mist . Mo Fan had a red wound on his chest . The cut was very thin, but blood kept jetting out from it .
Protected by the scorching flames, Mo Fan only felt a sudden chill from his chest, and a shadow flickering past him . Luckily, he was able to react instinctively . Otherwise, the slash might actually have sliced his chest in half .
"How was it? I said that you are no match for me!" the woman under the silver mask giggled .
"It's just a tiny cut with some blood, it's nothing serious!" Mo Fan glanced at the cut . It was not anything serious .
A spurt of flame swept over Mo Fan's chest . In order to stop the bleeding, Mo Fan decisively seared the cut just to seal it off!
It was pretty cool to mend his wound like that, but the pain was shocking . Mo Fan tried his best to pretend that he was at ease, but his forehead was already covered in cold sweat . Asha'ruiya saw the little twitch on his face .
Asha'ruiya giggled even more when she saw Mo Fan forcing himself . Her hips were shaking from her laughter . Her alluring temperament stood out more than the dark energy shrouding her .
Hearing the woman's giggles, Mo Fan had the urge to tie the cunning vixen up and whip her a hundred times . With just five minutes, he could guarantee that she would not be laughing anymore, and would struggle to get out of bed too!
"Do you want me to take a look at your injuries?" Asha'ruiya asked .
"But your milk is poisonous!" Mo Fan did not forget to trash-talk even when he was in pain .
{TL Note: Healing magic is described as feeding milk as a modern saying, maybe because both are giving vitality to someone? A Healer is also called a nanny, and is very common in video games . Looking for a nanny for party quest!}
"Little Mo Fan, it seems like you desperately need some instruction . I guess I'll just beat you up, heal you, beat you up, heal you, and repeat the same things for a hundred times . That way, you'll learn how you should talk to a noble Saintess of the Parthenon Temple," Asha'ruiya replied, her voice all smiles .
"But that wasn't something you said in bed last night…" Mo Fan deferred .
Asha'ruiya's chest heaved . It was not the first time that the asshole had vilified her with filthy words . She did not lose her calm, as she did not want others to know that it was actually getting on her nerves . However, Mo Fan seemed to be enjoying it; he acted as if he wanted to let the whole world know the Candidate for the role of the Goddess was actually very passionate when it came to having sexual intercourse!
"I have decided to take you out first!" Asha'ruiya was serious this time .
The strength of the Chinese team would decline significantly after she took Mo Fan out . She would worry about Zorro later . Even though it was not as ideal, anyone that dared to piss her off had to scram right away!
"Bring it on!" Mo Fan straightened his face and prepared himself for Asha'ruiya's attack .
Asha'ruiya executed the Tip-Toe Death Lotus once again . It was a kind of footwork, allowing her to dance lightly and gracefully like a black butterfly, making her movements unpredictable .
Mo Fan stood still, waiting for his chance patiently . His eyes were following Asha'ruiya's movement with a grim expression .
"Now!" Mo Fan yelled all of a sudden . A Gravitational Space suddenly came crashing down .
Asha'ruiya giggled in amusement . She was a Space Mage, so she was clearly not afraid of Mo Fan's spell . Strictly speaking, her Space Element was actually stronger than Mo Fan's .
Asha'ruiya quickly summoned a Gravitational Space in the opposite direction to cancel out Mo Fan's spell .
"Asha'ruiya, I now believe that you're a naive Saintess," Mo Fan grinned .
Asha'ruiya was startled . She was about to attack with her sword when she sensed the temperature dropping rapidly .
"Ice Lock Formation!" In an instant, ice chains filled the air as the ground was covered in frost . The thick chains immediately formed an enormous formation encapsulating Asha'ruiya and Mo Fan in a spectacular manner .
On Mo Fan's side, the ice chains did not bind him down, but on Asha'ruiya's side, the ice chains stacked up in layers and rapidly sealed off Asha'ruiya's escape routes…
Asha'ruiya completely lost her cool . She tried to escape with Blink, but the ice chains were being flung at her fiercely . She did not have any chance to construct the Star Constellation .
The Ice Lock Formation completely sealed off Asha'ruiya's movement . She was soon trapped in the middle, her waist, arms, and legs were tied down by the ice chains!
"Asshole, you asshole!" Asha'ruiya blushed with anger .
This asshole Mo Fan had set her up when it was meant to be a duel . He had been buying time for Mu Ningxue to set up the huge trap .

Unless Asha'ruiya was able to Blink away as soon as the trap was triggered, she would have no chance of escaping from the Ice Lock Formation because of its ridiculous coverage area and the chains that were restricting her movements…
"HAHAHAHA, you dare scold me, asshole? Aren't you a great fan of pulling your dirty tricks on us?" Mo Fan burst out laughing . -You cunning little vixen, how are you going to escape this time?-
As for the pride of a man? Mo Fan obviously did not have any sense of integrity . If he could eliminate Asha'ruiya in an easy way, why would he bother fighting her in a duel?
"Mo Fan, you shameless prick!" Asha'ruiya cursed .
She had not expected that she was being set up . Mo Fan had not intended to fight her alone from the beginning, since it was obvious that Mu Ningxue had spent quite some time setting up her Ice Lock Formation .
"Xiao Meng'e, you should really go and revise what it means by nothing is too deceitful inwar!" Mo Fan chuckled . The Lightning Tyrant was already glowing in his hand .
With how the situation was, he could easily disqualify Asha'ruiya with a Sky Lightning Claw . Mo Fan, with a rather perverted grin on his face, was so pleased that he totally lost his sense of measure and raised his brows at Mu Ningxue . However, the grin on his face disappeared when he saw Mu Ningxue's stern eyes .
"Sky Lightning Claw!" Mo Fan did not show any mercy .
They were currently in the middle of a match . Even though he had been flirting with Asha'ruiya throughout the match, he had never said that he was not going to set her up too, had he?
Asha'ruiya had been responsible for provoking the English team to team up with the Greek team to take out the Chinese team first . She was also the reason why the Chinese team had teamed up with the Greek team . Mo Fan agreed that Zorro was a great threat, but the resourceful Asha'ruiya was a great threat, too . If he could take her out, it would be easier for their team to control the situation, since they only had to worry about the English team instead of worrying that the Greek team would backstab them!
The lightning tore through Asha'ruiya's armor and penetrated her defense before landing on her .
"Asha'ruiya!"
Seeing that Asha'ruiya was in danger, Karolina immediately flew into the air and dove at the Ice Lock Formation that Mu Ningxue had set up!
"She's crazy!" Mo Fan stared at the reckless woman in astonishment .
Sponsored Content
There was no way Mu Ningxue would let anyone destroy her Ice Lock Formation . She leapt into the air by dancing on the ice chains and engaged Karolina .
Karolina completely ignored Mu Ningxue's attacks . She used the power of her sacred light to break the ice chains that were trapping Asha'ruiya .
Asha'ruiya regained her freedom . She grabbed Karolina and prepared to Blink away, worried that Mu Ningxue would entrap her again with the Ice Lock Formation, but Mu Ningxue's ice chains had wrapped around Karolina, dragging her out of Asha'ruiya's spell .
"Don't mind me, our team can't lose here!" Karolina said firmly .
Asha'ruiya did not push her luck further . She finished the spell and escaped from the huge Ice Lock Formation .
Meanwhile, Karolina clearly had no chance of escaping . As the Sky Lightning Claw continued to land on her, the protective light of the Ring of Venice soon surrounded her .
Mo Fan stopped attacking when the light appeared, allowing the assistant judge to carry Karolina away .
Not far away, Asha'ruiya stared at Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue coldly .
She had indeed been too careless . She did not think Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue had such great synergy . It turned out that Mo Fan was not the only threat on the Chinese team . Mu Ningxue's Ice Magic was terrifying too! She was almost trapped inside the Ice Lock Formation . If it wasn't for Karolina's sacrifice, she would have been knocked out by now!
Asha'ruiya was still feeling some lingering fear!
"It looks like we've completely fallen out with the Greek team," Mu Ningxue said .
"It was going to happen eventually . Too bad that we didn't manage to eliminate that foxy," Mo Fan replied regretfully .
It went without saying that Asha'ruiya would still have lots of tricks up her sleeves . Mo Fan's greatest worry was not Zorro, the man with outstanding strength, but the possibility that once they used everything to eliminate Zorro, Asha'ruiya would overwhelm them with her trump card!

Mo Fan thought Asha'ruiya would use everything she had to get her revenge since he had set her up . To his surprise, the woman actually controlled her anger and focused on the remaining members of the English team instead .
It was very easy for people to be disqualified in a mixed battle, since they might be at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, or a little mistake might provoke members of the other two teams to flank them…
More people were being disqualified from the match . Nanyu was disqualified, and not long after, Ai Jiangtu was taken out by Gamennon and Zorro .
The arrogant Gamennon was in pretty bad shape, too . He was severely injured by Zorro, and on his way back to the team to be treated by the Healer .
However, Gamennon stumbled into Mu Tingying as he was flying toward his teammates . Mu Tingying managed to trigger his Ring of Venice, meaning that Gamennon was disqualified from the match too!
Mu Tingying was the representative of the Mu Clan . Her strength was not outstanding in particular, but the resourceful Mu Clan had managed to get her a set of Ice Magic equipment .
Her boots, armor, weapon, shield, and wings were all made of a special kind of ice . The different pieces of magic Equipment were engraved with magic formations with the ability to summon thistles and thorns of ice around Mu Tingying . She suddenly looked like a thorny empress, the damage of the thorns outstanding .
Mu Tingying had done a great job conserving her strength . She had been holding onto the Set of Equipment until now, just so she could make a name for herself in the tournament . She did eliminate Gamennon, a key member of the Greek team, so the Ice Thorns and Thistles Magic Equipment Set was worth it!
The Chinese team only had a single substitute member left . Currently, Mo Fan, Mu Ningxue, and Mu Tingying were the only members of the Chinese team left in the match .
As for the Greek team, they also had only three members left, but they no longer had any substitute members . Gamennon's being knocked out of the match served as a great blow to their team .
The English team was not looking good, either . Zorro had played an important role in disqualifying Ai Jiangtu and Gamennon, but his teammates were no longer fit for battle . They basically had no chance of winning without a Healer .
Asha'ruiya was pretty cruel, too . Zorro had taken out Gamennon, but in return, Asha'ruiya had been picking on several members of the English team, putting the English team in their current state . The unbeatable Zorro was the only person left!
—
"It's almost time for substitution . Nanrong Ni is our last member; we can recover some of our strength," Mo Fan said to Mu Ningxue .
Feng Li had purposely arranged their Healer Nanrong Ni as the last member, hoping to give the team a final chance to secure the victory of the match .
"Mmm," Mu Ningxue nodded . She did not say anything else, since she had completely fallen out with the Healer .
"If we can protect Nanrong Ni, we are going to win the match!" Mu Tingying seemed quite excited .
The match had been chaotic so far, but somehow, the Greek team and English team had suffered greater losses . The three of them only had to wait for Nanrong Ni, and they could basically eliminate the remaining members of the other two teams!
Despite the conflict between them, they had agreed to work together for now, since they were representing their country .
Nanrong Ni was sent onto the battlefield when it was time .
Nanrong Ni's ability to defend herself was pretty weak . Her primary Element was Healing, her secondary was Plant, and her tertiary was Blessing . She would not last for long if the members of the other two teams found her first .
The three Chinese immediately searched for Nanrong Ni . Meanwhile, the English team and the Greek team were aware that the match was slowly leaning toward the Chinese team . They decisively called a truce and proceeded to search for the last participant that had just entered the match .
The other two countries no longer had any substitute members left . If the Chinese team had one more member, it would result in a huge disadvantage to them!
"If only Nanyu was here, she could immediately tell where Nanrong Ni is!" Mo Fan sighed .
The Sound Element was incredibly useful for pinpointing a person's location . It was very effective at helping the team find their substitute members, since the battlefield was quite spacious . It was rather tricky to find a person when they were concealing their presence .
It was necessary for the substitutes to hide as soon as they entered the battlefield . There were three teams in the mixed battle . Since the location of the substitute members was randomized, it was very likely that the person would show up somewhere close to their opponents . As such, it only made sense for the incoming subs to conceal their presence while observing the surroundings to slowly regroup with the team .
—
The trio failed to find any trace of their member after some time . However, when they went to the other side of the woods, Mo Fan noticed that some of the roots were tangled .
"She has the Plant Element, right?" Mo Fan asked .
Mu Ningxue nodded .
"It must be here, let's head over now . The victory is ours once she heals us!" Mu Tingying said .
The three followed the clues left by the tangled vines and saw Nanrong Ni close to the river .
Mu Tingying was overjoyed . She quickened her pace and walked toward Nanrong Ni .
"Wait," Mu Ningxue stopped Mu Tingying, signaling her to not move any closer .
"What are we waiting for? There are four of us now!" Mu Tingying said .
"It might be a trap," Mu Ningxue said .
"A trap? Are you being serious? Do you really think she's going to hurt us? Mu Ningxue, you think of yourself too highly, there's no way Nanrong Ni will think that taking you out is more important than winning the match!" Mu Tingying was amused .
"I just feel that something doesn't seem right," Mu Ningxue said .
"I bet you're worried that I'm going to take all the attention away once I recover from my injuries," Mu Tingying said .
Her ability to Summon ice thistles to cover the area within fifty meters was indeed powerful . Not only did she eliminate Gamennon, she also took out a member of the English team too!
In terms of contribution, her performance was the best so far .
However, in Mo Fan's eyes, Mu Tingying was just lucky to stumble into a few people that were already at their limit .

"We'll settle any dispute we have after the match . Mu Tingying, you better listen to Mu Ningxue's warning . What if it's actually a trap… f**k me, how stupid could she be? Why would she just go up like that!?" Mo Fan was trying to advise the woman calmly, yet she completely ignored Mu Ningxue's warning .
"Perhaps I'm just being too worried . Should we go too?" Mu Ningxue asked Mo Fan .
Mo Fan shook his head . If it was not a trap, Mu Tingying could meet up with Nanrong Ni and bring the woman here by herself .
The two waited among the woods . Mu Tingying was seriously lacking a functioning brain, she simply walked up to Nanrong Ni without any caution .
She soon brought Nanrong Ni back . She was wearing a mocking grin when she entered the woods .
"See, nothing even happened, and you said that it was a trap!" Mu Tingying said before turning to Nanrong Ni, "Quick, heal me, the English team and Greek team are at their limits . They can no longer treat their injuries . "
Nanrong Ni nodded . She looked rather dull . She started drawing Star Patterns and combining them into a Star Constellation…
"You are using the wrong Element, it should be the Healing Element, not the Plant Element!" Mu Tingying grumbled .
Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue exchanged glances with one another and immediately came to a realization .
"Run, it's a trap!" Mo Fan yelled .
Mo Fan grabbed Mu Ningxue and flung his Dark Noble Mantle . Both Mu Ningxue and he disappeared into the shadow and fled from Nanrong Ni .
Nanrong Ni's face was blank, but her Plant Magic had already covered the area . Vines burst out of the ground and coiled around them, building a huge cage to trap Mo Fan, Mu Ningxue, and Mu Tingying .
The Plant Magic emphasized a lot on preparation . The Mage had to insert the magic into the ground to spread the magic seeds . The plants would then sprout up and attack after receiving the command . Once done, the Plant Element's damage would usually surpass the damage of other Elements!
It was quite obvious that Nanrong Ni had been preparing the trap for a long time . Even before the three had yet to regroup with her, they were already deep within the trap .
Mo Fan had reacted fairly quickly . He started running as soon as he grabbed Mu Ningxue…

He could only bring one other person with him while using the Fleeing Shadow and Dark Noble Mantle . Mu Tingying was very close to him, but he did not have enough time to bring the stupid woman along too…
The vines grew even taller than the trees nearby, turning the whole place into a demon forest that was going to eat them all with a single bite .
Mu Tingying stood in the middle of the vines, her face filled with disbelief . She never thought Nanrong Ni would attack her teammates . They were currently in the middle of a match! She was supposed to put any personal conflicts aside . She was surely going to be in huge trouble for this!
The light above Mu Tingying was blocked off by the vines . Mu Tingying realized she could no longer escape . She stared at Nanrong Ni standing in front of her .
She finally recognized the strange look in Nanrong Ni's eyes . They looked hollow, as if they were covered by a cloudy, gray substance…
She finally realized someone was controlling Nanrong Ni's mind!
It was obvious that the other two teams had found Nanrong Ni first . They did not disqualify her straightaway . Instead, they controlled her mind and set up a huge trap, waiting for the Chinese team to walk right into it!
Seeing the vines surrounding her, resigned flames erupted inside her heart .
—
—
"You two were pretty quick at running; you didn't even trust your teammate!" a flattering giggle came down from the canopy .
Mo Fan already knew Asha'ruiya was behind it without needing to guess who the person was .
However, Mo Fan was confused . How was she able to control Nanrong Ni's mind? He did not remember Asha'ruiya being a Psychic Mage, could it be that the Greek team still had a Psychic Mage on their side?
"Let's leave this place first . We don't know if she has prepared another trap for us . " Mo Fan did not hesitate and brought Mu Ningxue further away from the place .
As he thought, the ground was indeed filled with deadly plants . Huge flowers that were completely still suddenly came alive . Some were hiding among the trees, tearing at anything nearby, while others were buried underground, and would drag anything that passed by into the ground…

"Fire!" Mo Fan set himself on fire . It blew out around him in a ring .
The deadly flowers scattered across the place were burned into ashes after the flames touched them .
Mo Fan quickly left the woods with Mu Ningxue, but he soon realized she had been cut a few times . The vines must have hurt her while they were fleeing .
They were both injured from their battles before, and their injuries continued to increase . It went without saying that their injuries would weaken them significantly, and as they bled, they would become feebler, and would eventually lose consciousness if they did not rest up soon .
A strong wind started blowing . White gusts like terrifying whips attacked both of them fiercely . Mu Ningxue quickly managed to set up some ice chains to defend them from the wind whips .
Mo Fan raised his head and saw Zorro standing on higher ground with his arms folded across front of his chest, a smug look on his face .
He quickly glanced behind and saw Asha'ruiya catching up to them . He was convinced that the two had decided to disqualify him and Mu Ningxue first!
"It's the man with green seaweed hair . I'll deal with him while you take Asha'ruiya on," Mo Fan knew the final battle had arrived . There was no running away now .
"Alright," Mu Ningxue glanced at Asha'ruiya and began to spread her ice into her surroundings .
"She is a Summoner too! My Flying Creek Snow Wolf will lend you a hand," Mo Fan stated .
The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was only able to unleash his full strength in Mu Ningxue's Ice Domain . Mo Fan was worried that Mu Ningxue would be unable to handle the cunning Asha'ruiya by herself .
"What about you?" Mu Ningxue was worried about Mo Fan's safety after he allocated the Flying Creek Snow Wolf to her .
Everyone was well aware of how strong Zorro was . They had failed to eliminate him when everyone was taking him on . How could Mo Fan possibly stand a chance against the man without the help of the Flying Creek Snow Wolf?
"Don't worry, I have an idea!" Mo Fan said .
—
Mo Fan did not waste his time talking to Zorro . He used the remaining Calamity Fire from Little Flame Belle to form a pair of burning wings on his back!
The fiery feathers exploded, propelling Mo Fan into the air like a bullet engulfed in flames . He threw a punch where Zorro was standing . Scorching lava erupted with flames surging across the place . The whole area began to tremble!
"Every person that has dueled me has faced humiliation in the end . I thought you were too smart to do something so dumb, since you have made yourself a name so far in the tournament . It's really unnecessary to ruin it now!" Zorro nimbly moved away from where the lava was erupting .
Mo Fan was unable to fly . He soon landed on the ground, but he was promptly propelled back into the air by an explosion, springing at Zorro like a fiery dragon .
Zorro was unable to dodge the attack this time . He frowned and covered himself with the four white Wind Wings on his back, shielding him from the attack!
The fiery dragon that Mo Fan had transformed into rammed into Zorro's defense . Even though the Calamity Fire failed to touch Zorro's body, the impact knocked him higher in the air…
Zorro's balance faltered . His body kept spinning until he reached the highest point . He finally extended his wings to regain control of himself .
"A man with pure brute strength!" Zorro suddenly realized that he had lost two of his Wind Wings .
Zorro had four wings in total, and the single punch had destroyed two of them! The man was not resigned to the outcome, but his Chaos Element was unable to nullify physical damage inflicted on him . Mo Fan had somehow deduced the weakness of his Chaos Element . It was also why Mo Fan was using a different approach when attacking him!
Mo Fan landed on the ground and raised his head to look at Zorro . He grinned wildly and said, "I like dueling people too! The only difference is, you are deemed to be stronger when you are up against more people because of your abilities, which means that you're going to be weaker when going against fewer people . As for me, my strength stays the same . If the opponent is weak, I can crush them with a single punch, but if the opponent is strong, I just need to throw a few more punches!"
"A destructive Mage like you has too many weaknesses . The Psychic Element can easily turn you into a useless man, and a defensive Mage could also nullify your attacks . As for my Chaos Element, it's the same as carrying a stone and stubbing your own foot! Meanwhile, my spells have high damage just like yours, and I can reflect your spells after strengthening them, too! Other people might have a chance against me, but that doesn't apply to you . You can't do anything to me, but I can wear you out with my wind and my insects!" Zorro slowly descended to the ground and faced Mo Fan .
"Green head, your ability to bluff people is actually a lot stronger than your strength . You almost convinced me there!" Mo Fan started drawing Star Patterns as he spoke .
Zorro was also adept enough at casting his spells that he could draw the Star Patterns while talking . However, his channeling speed was slightly slower this time . Mo Fan was the first to summon some black lightning to strike Zorro fiercely .
Zorro grinned when he sensed the lightning aiming at him .
"Chaos Vortex!"
A twisted surface appeared above Zorro . The wild energy of the lightning strike vanished as if it had been transferred to another plane!
"Back at you!" Zorro rotated the curved surface to reflect the spell like a mirror .
The lightning that vanished came out of the twisted surface, but it was now aiming at Mo Fan instead!
BANG!
The lightning shattered the ground into pieces as it landed directly on Mo Fan . His hair was standing on its end, while his skin was slightly scorched too…
"Sky Lightning Claw!" This time, Mo Fan used his strongest Lightning attack, as if he was unwilling to give up .
The Lightning Tyrant Domain descended upon the place, lightning arcs gathered toward Mo Fan, before lunging at Zorro like the soldiers under the command of a tyrant .
The lightning took the shape of claws, tearing at the cloudy wind circling the man . The rapid, black lightning with a strong, deathly aura was attacking Zorro wildly .
"Are you stupid? I told you, it's useless against me!" Zorro yelled .
The Chaos Vortex appeared close to Zorro once again . This time, it completely surrounded Zorro, since the lightning arcs were lunging at him from all directions . However, the energy of the lightning was still absorbed by the Chaos Spell!
"Have a taste of your own Sky Lightning Claw!" Zorro spun the twisted surface, aiming it back at Mo Fan .

The terrifying lightning claw tore at Mo Fan fiercely .
Any destructive Spell that was reflected by Zorro's Chaos Element would be slightly stronger than usual . The enhanced Sky Lightning Claw was absolutely terrifying . The giant rocks nearby had all turned into dust . Mo Fan was so tiny compared to the lightning, that it felt like he was going to be torn into pieces in any second!
The assistant judge nearby had the urge to intervene after seeing how strong the attack was . After all, the Ring of Venice could not necessarily nullify any spell . It was difficult to tell if the protection of the Ring of Venice was enough to shield against a strong spell like the Sky Lightning Claw!
Mo Fan held his ground amid the surging lightning . He clenched his teeth and endured the attack with his flesh!
Under the effects of the Lightning Tyrant Domain, Mo Fan's lightning resistance, and his ability to absorb lightning, had increased significantly . On top of that, his body was also strengthened by the Demon Element . He managed to clench his teeth and endure the damage of the enhanced Sky Lightning Claw!
His clothes were shredded, revealing his scorched skin and muscles .
Standing on trashed and shattered rocky ground, Mo Fan was already on the verge of collapsing, yet his eyes were still glittering!
"Sky! Lightning! Claw!" Mo Fan uttered coldly, and unleashed the destructive spell once again!
The wild lightning and gathered from all directions like dragons . The lightning dragons then combined into a powerful lightning claw targeting Zorro .
"Did you fry your brain with your own lightning? You're asking for it!" Zorro yelled at him .
The twisted surface appeared again . Zorro was very adept at casting the Advanced Spell of the Chaos Element . He managed to hold his ground when he was blasted by seven people at once, let alone a single Mo Fan . -Is this Mo Fan so naive that he thinks he can overcome my Chaos Element by attacking continuously?-
The energy of the Sky Lightning Claw was absorbed by the Chaos Vortex, before it was once again reflected back at Mo Fan again .

The crowd fell silent watching Mo Fan enduring the lightning strikes . It looked like the man was about to be crushed into pieces in any second . They heard the piercing screech of the lightning, and Mo Fan's painful cry as he endured the pain…

"Is that guy made of steel?"
"He's still standing after being hit by his own lightning spells twice . "
"The question is, isn't his approach somewhat stupid? Surely he knows his destructive spells are useless against Zorro!"
"Zorro is just too strong . He should be banned from the tournament, since he could easily topple the balance between the teams . It's basically like an adult fighting against a three-year-old . "
"My God, this Mo Fan is crazy, he's doing it again, he's going to kill himself!"
The people were incredibly shocked by Mo Fan's actions . To their surprise, Mo Fan continued to cast the Sky Lightning Claw for the third time stubbornly…
—
Zorro was infuriated when he saw the Sky Lightning Claw landing on him once again!
Somehow, Zorro felt that Mo Fan was looking down on his Chaos Element after seeing his self-destructive approach…
"You will never overcome my Chaos Element, even if you expend all your energy!" Zorro cried furiously . He repeated the same spell and reflected the Sky Lightning Claw back at Mo Fan .
Mo Fan raised his head and watched the enormous lightning claw coming down at him . However, there was no sign of fear on his face, but an ambitious, wild grin…
For some reason, it did not seem like Mo Fan was enduring the lightning strike, but was receiving it!
He was receiving his own lightning!

"Mo Fan…"
"Is that guy really out of his mind?"
Countless eyes watched the Sky Lightning Claw descended rapidly and land on him, his torso already stripped clean
Mo Fan's unyielding spirit was impressive indeed, since everyone knew that being struck by lightning was like having their bones being broken . The man was a serious masochist the way he kept casting the Lightning Spells, just to be reflected right back at him continuously!
As the Sky Lightning Claw kept landing on Mo Fan, his body had now absorbed a huge amount of electric current . It had formed a lightning cage around him!
"Even though I have no idea how you are still standing after taking so many hits, I believe it's time to end this battle! I was actually looking forward to dueling you, yet your idiotic approach has been very disappointing!" Zorro glanced at Mo Fan coldly .
Mo Fan had not fallen, but it was no different than him falling to the ground . His organs were almost blasted into pieces after being struck by the enhanced Sky Lightning Claws a few times in a row . It was unlikely that he could still fight with such serious injuries…
Only a few participants were left in the match . Once he took out Mo Fan, and disqualified Mu Ningxue and Asha'ruiya, who were going to be at their limit after dueling one another, the English team would still advance to the grand final, allowing them to take back their glory from the Egyptian team . The English team would claim first place in the World College Tournament, winning the utmost glory for their country, and earning the most valuable resources, too!
"It's very impressive that you were able to bring the Chinese team so far . You should be satisfied," Zorro waved his hands, preparing a deadly tornado .
He had no intention of playing the boring game with Mo Fan any further . He could easily knock the man out, since he was already at his limit, with a Wind Spell .
"You're pretty impressive too, to be able to force me into this situation!" Mo Fan raised his head . Black smoke was coming out of his mouth as he spoke…
"Who do you think you are?" Zorro was infuriated . He had never seen such an ignorant man . If Mo Fan admitted his defeat, Zorro would still show respect for him . However, the man had to annoy him even after the outcome had been decided!
"I will become the disgraceful shame in your heart that you can never get rid of!" Mo Fan promised, his eyes glittering!
Another explosion of lightning erupted . However, Mo Fan did not cast a Sky Lightning Claw this time . He had unleashed all the lightning that his body had absorbed instead!
The dense lightning arcs formed an enormous electric field, filling up Mo Fan's Domain!
The Lightning Tyrant Domain already had arcs of lightning surging through it, but now their number had multiplied ten fold . The Lightning Magic in the area was at least ten times stronger, too…
Zorro initially planned to finish Mo Fan off with a Wind Spell, until he realized that there was no other magic here apart from the Lightning Magic . He was unable to use his Wind Element!
The whole battlefield was shaking . Even the spectators in the distance could sense a strong energy rising!
"Let's see if your Chaos Element can endure this! Sky Lightning Giant Claw!"
The energy reached its limit, and countless dark dragons appeared in the sky, their long and enormous bodies were rolling in the stormy clouds above Zorro .
Zorro raised his head and beheld an utterly terrifying scene . He could not imagine that Mo Fan was responsible for the formidable energy that had gathered above him!
Zorro was struggling to use his magic under the incredible pressure . The lightning was many times stronger than the Sky Lightning Claws previously…
"Chaos Vortex!" Zorro managed to cast the Chaos Spell in the nick of time, using the twisted surface to protect himself .
Normally, Zorro would have a confident look whenever the Chaos Vortex was around, anticipating the pleasure of reflecting spells back at his enemies . However, watching the dark lightning dragons dancing in the sky, Zorro could not feel the slightest sense of security!
The Sky Lightning Giant Claw finally came down . The thick pillar of lightning had split into several lightning bolts, like the giant claw of a heavenly beast aiming to raze the whole battlefield to the ground!
Zorro's Chaos Vortex immediately absorbed the energy of the Sky Lightning Giant Claw, but anyone that was familiar with the Chaos element knew that the Chaos Vortex was not a bottomless hole . It also had a limit, but it was impossible for Mages of the same level to reach the limit, since the limit would increase together with the Mage's cultivation!
Zorro's cultivation was outstanding . As such, even when he was being attacked by seven people at once, he still managed to reflect their spells…
However, Mo Fan's Sky Lightning Giant Claw was not just the same spell with double the strength . Its power had surpassed that of a third-tier Advanced Spell, and was incredibly close to the power of a Super Spell . It had clearly surpassed the upper limit of Zorro's Chaos Element!
After the Chaos Vortex was shattered, the magic armor that Zorro was wearing was completely useless too . The destructive energy easily broke the armor into pieces!
The Wind Wings protecting Zorro were like mere decoration too, as they too broke within an instant…
Zorro still had a ring on his finger that would trigger automatically to protect the bearer . It was similar to the Ring of Venice . However, the light barrier that the ring Summoned also collapsed instantly after it was hit by the Sky Lightning Giant Claw!
In the end, the Water Barrier of the Ring of Venice appeared, too . It was Zorro's final hope . He believed that the victory would still be his once he overcame the situation…
However, the defense of the Ring of Venice crumbled very easily too! He even felt that the Sky Lightning Giant Claw was not weakened by the layers of defense he had at all . His mind went blank at the strong premonition of death . He could not figure out what he had done wrong!
BANG!
Zorro fell from the sky and slammed heavily into the ground .
He disregarded the pain from his back, staring at the Sky Lightning Giant Claw that could take his life at any second .
After falling to the ground, Zorro finally realized how enormous and terrifying the Sky Lightning Giant Claw was . It felt like the whole sky was covered by it . He could not believe that a student the same age as him was the one responsible for it!
Lying in the deep pit, it took Zorro a while to collect his thoughts . He rose to his feet…

The fall did not inflict much damage on him . As a matter of fact, he did not suffer any serious injuries, as the Sky Lightning Giant Claw had been withdrawn after it broke through the barrier of the Ring of Venice .
Zorro glanced at the man covered in wounds and bruises not far away, before looking at his clean, unstained shirt . He could not find any word to describe the bitterness in his heart .
He lost, he actually lost!
He was undefeated against nine people, yet he had lost when facing a single opponent!
He did not lose because of his cultivation, but he had lost to the other man's courage…
A moment passed before Zorro asked, "Does that mean you would have lost if I didn't reflect the lightning back at you?" .
"There aren't many 'ifs' in this world…" Mo Fan's face was covered in filth, yet he was still wearing a grin .
Zorro was startled . Before he could say anything else, the assistant judge flew over and brought Zorro, who was still thinking deeply, away from the battlefield .
Mo Fan was right . There weren't many 'ifs' in a battle . If he was not in a tournament, if the man did not go easy on him, the person that came to bring him away would not be the assistant judge, but the Grim Reaper holding a long scythe!
—
An assistant judge brought Zorro away, but another one paused beside Mo Fan .
It was quite obvious that Mo Fan was already at his limit . He did win the duel, yet could he even stay in the match? He was struck by his own lightning so many times!
The assistant judge could not intervene in the match, but he could not help but say . "You're very bold . "

Mo Fan lifted his gaze . He happened to hear the cheering of the crowd seated on the walls . It went without saying that they were totally impressed by his spectacular Sky Lightning Giant Claw .
The truth was, even Mo Fan was shocked by it . The fact that he was bold enough to keep attacking Zorro, just so he could absorb the lightning reflected back at him in order to overwhelm Zorro's unbeatable Chaos Element…
Tsk tsk, he was even more impressed at himself!
Mo Fan fell to his back and lay on the dusty ground, panting heavily .
The assistant judge came over and knelt down to pick him up .
"Hey, what are you doing?" Mo Fan yelled .
"You're finished," the assistant judge said .
"Nonsense, I can still fight! Don't touch me, I'm still in good condition!" Mo Fan yelled, but he immediately clenched his teeth from the enormous pain .
"Are you sure you can still fight?" The assistant judge was a woman, and a mature and alluring one . She was amused by Mo Fan's reaction .
"I sure can, just don't touch me . The rules state that if a participant hasn't fainted, or their lives are not in danger since the Ring of Venice wasn't triggered, they aren't disqualified from the match! But if you touch me, I will be disqualified for sure!" Mo Fan exclaimed .
"Alright, you can lie on the ground as you wish, but…" The assistant judge was helpless before the rascally Mo Fan, even though anyone could easily tell that Mo Fan could not lift a finger . "You have already earned yourself the utmost glory by taking out Zorro . Why do you still have to force yourself? Once your injuries worsen, it might take ages for you to recover . "
"We should always pursue more!" It took Mo Fan a great effort to place his scorched hands behind his head .
"You want to win the tournament?"
"You're damn right!"
