Chapter 265: Chapter 182: Finally showing your tusks?_3
"I can’t even match a girl!"
Slap!
Imitating the chef’s action, Wesley forcefully slapped his own face. He might have used a little too much force, making his cheek burn. However, it seemed that this act dispelled some of his fear.
"Ai Lin, are you ready?" Long Yi asked.
"Don’t worry! I won’t be careless this time!" Ai Lin clenched her little fist and smiled confidently.
Actually, Long Yi’s biggest worry wasn’t the chef and the mosquito brothers or the seemingly unconfident Wesley, but Ai Lin. Even though the chef and mosquito brothers seemed unreliable, they were in fact very meticulous thinkers. They were geniuses in their own right and would naturally understand anything without needing too much explanation. Wesley, even though he lacked confidence, was always able to complete any tasks assigned to him successfully. He just couldn’t accurately assess his own strength.
Conversely, Ai Lin, despite being second only to Long Yi in power among the group, was the most prone to mishaps.
She used to be a genius as a child, yet somehow turned into a useless person halfway through. After regaining her power, she was left with many shadows in her heart. That is Ai Lin. Sometimes, Long Yi really wishes her to be like the main characters from some crossed-over novels, where all the inner shadows completely disappear after a small prompt, transforming into a brand-new self. Unfortunately, life is not a novel, and humans are destined to be complicated creatures. The good news, however, is that Ai Lin is continuously becoming stronger. This strength is not just her fighting power, but also her inner strength. For example, her previous failure made her cry quietly afterward, but it didn’t leave any indelible impact on her. It’s like a child not being able to get a big red flower from the teacher. To adults, it may seem irrelevant, but to children, it’s taken very seriously. Thankfully, in Long Yi’s eyes, Ai Lin is not that carefree adult nor the fussy child yearning for that big red flower.
Long Yi initially wanted to say something to Ai Lin, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. Long Yi isn’t particularly good at persuading others, saving his verbal skills for his opponents.
He chose to trust instead.
And for Long Yi’s trust, Ai Lin felt very moved.
Previously, Long Yi trusted her and handed over the fight against Luo Yi to her, but she screwed it up. This time, she thought that Long Yi would instruct her, but he did not, treating her as usual.
That is trust!
He doesn’t need to instruct someone he trusts!
Thinking about this, Ai Lin immediately felt full of energy!
What’s more, there’s special training!
We are not afraid!
On the battlefield, the five people from the White Dragon Empire are in unprecedented danger. The White Dragon, corroded by the Black Dragon’s breath, is increasingly heavy, and its flying speed is also continuously decreasing. They can no longer maintain a significant distance from the opponent. In the midst of battle, the knights on the dragon’s back can’t gain any advantage! If it was a normal competition, the referee would have stopped the game and declared a winner by now. But now it’s different. The referee has no intention to end the game. The Emperor of the Black Dragon Empire, Kaniel Black, has bought off everyone up and down. This time, he wants the entire world to watch those five people from the White Dragon Empire die! Nobody is allowed to interfere!
Then, in the next moment, Long Yi steps onto the battlefield with four other people.
At the same time, Ka Zan’s voice rang loudly.
"White Dragon Empire! Substitution!"
Substitution?
What a strange term.
A substitution is allowed in demonstration matches. This rule was originally set to prevent anyone on the field from being unable to fight due to unforeseen circumstances, such as sudden illnesses. Since all countries have always treated these demonstration matches as battles of national honor, this substitution rule is hardly ever used. About three years ago, a Dragon Knight had a sudden bout of diarrhea and a replacement was made.
Now, when the White Dragon Empire suddenly wants to make a substitution, by the rules, they certainly can. But now, are there any rules left to speak of at all?
"No substitutions!" The referee shouted.
"What, got cold feet? Afraid you can’t beat us?" Long Yi yelled back, pointing his finger at the Emperor of Black Dragon Empire. Kaniel Black burst into laughter: "Hahaha, fine! Let him substitute!"
As Ka Zan shouted for a substitution, the five members of the White Dragon Empire headed straight for the resting area. At this point, who still cares about the referee’s attitude? Ka Zan’s command is their only guide.
But the mutated Black Dragon Empire’s five members on the field seemed to not hear their emperor’s words, still chasing after the previous five members of the White Dragon Empire.
"Tsk tsk, the mutation must have burned their brains." Long Yi chuckled, while Bajie beside him opened his gigantic mouth, inhaling deeply.
"Bajie, no need to hold back anymore. To prevent others from looking down on us, let’s go full power this time!"
Bajie’s big eyes gleamed with mischief.
"Roar!"
Bang!
A huge, exaggerated pillar of fire accompanied by thick smoke drew an arc in the sky from the ground. It abruptly blocked the five Black Dragons!
Bajie had never used his full power to exhale dragon’s breath before. As a hybrid of Demon Abyss Dragon and Black Dragon, he possesses a power far beyond that of ordinary dragons. He inherited the potent fire destruction power of his mother, the Demon Abyss Dragon Empress; at the same time, he also inherited the debuffing ability of his father, Tyl the Black Dragon.
In the sky, the five Black Dragons instinctively perceive the powerful dragon’s breath and at the same time, feel the power of the Black Dragon within it. They are somewhat confused. How could such an obvious Black Dragon bloodline mix into the team of the White Dragon Empire?
The dragons are puzzled, but the knights on their backs are not. The mutated knights, having lost some of their intellect, have gained even stronger combat strength and desire to fight.
The dragon’s breath blocked their sight, but they saw Long Yi.
"Roar!"
The five mutated Half-Dragon Men let out non-human roars and then five Fighting Aura slashes flew towards Long Yi! (To be continued.
