Chapter 284: Chapter 194 - High-End Brothers
Long Yi had spent a whole six hours in the Dragon God’s space, each time someone left and the countdown began, someone else would appear. Long Yi understood their cunning plan to try to exhaust him with their delay tactics. But the joke was on them as he had forgotten to set a max duration for this contest. However, it didn’t pose a pivotal problem. While the constant delays did make an impact, it wasn’t anything substantial to Long Yi.
Right now, his physical body was actually sound asleep on his bed back home. Simply put, one night in the real world equaled several days in the Dragon God’s space. Long Yi had all the time in the world to hang around. Compared to the previous torment endured in his private space, is this minor delay even worth fretting over?
About two days had passed in the Dragon God’s space, the number above Long Yi’s head had escalated to a monstrous number of 5,700,000.
At this point, some people were growing restless.
Within the Dragon Knight Academy, the ninth grade seemed unattainable to common folks. Anyone who made it to ninth grade flaunted illustrious battle records and held important military positions along with five Dragon Marks on them.
But even for these fighters, none had ever owned over a million credits.
Let alone, this unprecedented 5,700,000!
The ninth grade was just a nominal term. In actuality, there was no physical existence of this class in the Dragon Knight Academy. Generally speaking, the ninth grade marked the pinnacle of a Dragon Knight’s career. When you graduated from the ninth grade, it either meant that you had moved into logistics, or had retired.
At this moment, two figures of the rank of General watched their wristbands, their mount dragons idling on their shoulder, lazily watching the numbers on the bands.
"5.7 million! Goddamn, it hit 6 million! Which idiot just donated some more credits?" The middle-aged man on the left exclaimed.
"Take it a notch down, Fang Te. It’s late at night, we’re not blind. We can see it too. Besides, you’re making us look bad with your dramatic gasps - is their general some unworldly teenager?" said the man on the right.
"Damn, so what if I am being a little louder? Feit, are you seriously belittling me for this?"
"Get out of my face! Dare to call yourself ’old man’ in front of me? I’ll report to our dad when I get home, you don’t want to get slapped, do you?" Feit muttered.
"Damn it, I said I was sorry! But, this 6 million credits, do you think we should go back for another round? We can exchange so much for these credits. I saw there’s a set of special dragon saddles in there, those are made by elves and cost up to 2,300,000 credits! I used to think that was just elf props fooling around, but now it seems like the chance is looming!" Fang Te lowered his voice, but still came out loud and clear.
"Let’s wait a bit longer. I bet, soon there will be a batch of kids organizing a counterattack. When the time comes, another batch of credits will be delivered!" Feit suggested.
"Alright! I’ll listen to you! Of all people, you’re the smartest amongst us. Listening to you has never been a mistake!"
Feit was right. At dawn, the first wave of counterattacks arrived, and the space was once again filling with people. Long Yi’s Dragon-slaying Sword had already snapped into more than a dozen pieces, and six Dragon Spears had broken as well. Then, Long Yi remembered he still had a trident!
When Long Yi pulled out the trident, Mina immediately screamed in excitement. That was the trident she gave to Long Yi!
This trident was not forged by humans but originated from a far-reaching heritage, unparalleled in strength than any other weapon Long Yi had used! The Trident swung, stirring an oceanic aura in the Dragon god space and causing widespread screams alongside it!
"Wasn’t it said that he would have run out of Fighting Aura after staying up all night! They lied to us!"
"I hate you, we’re not brothers anymore!"
"Damn it! His Fighting Aura is still so abundant!"
The people that arrived overnight were reinforcements or individuals who braved danger for credits to enter again. They assumed Long Yi’s Fighting Aura would have been exhausted after a marathon of battles. But who would have thought that Long Yi’s Fighting Aura didn’t originate from dragons, but from himself! His giant power would never exhaust, so how could his Fighting Aura possibly deplete!
After an all-night battle, the credits had reached 9,500,000! Only 500,000 shy from 10 million!
But at this moment, Long Yi started to sense a peculiar feeling deep in his heart!
Yes, that’s the feeling! That’s the feeling Long Yi was longing for!
He must surpass 10 million!
He must surpass 10 million!
The countdown resumed on his head, Long Yi was actually anticipating an opponent to show up! The peculiar sensation didn’t manifest out of nothing but it came from the knowledge he inherited! At this point, Long Yi, who had already unlocked new knowledge, didn’t need guidance from the Golem anymore. He himself knew that this so-called Dragon God space had to be related to the Giants!
And that 10 million credits was a crucial hurdle! Although Long Yi was still unsighted at the moment to what would happen when he amassed 10 million credits, he had a vague feeling that it would be extremely beneficial!
That’s why Long Yi had stirred up such a massive event!
Playing big is the way to go!
The countdown continued. The number above Long Yi’s head kept dwindling. His heart beat like a drum. He couldn’t believe if there existed anyone not being greedy in this world. The wealthier, the greedier one becomes. Only through greed could one become wealthy, and one’s wealth was directly proportional to one’s greed. Of course, here, greed was defined by Long Yi as a neutral term instead of derogatory.
This 9,500,000 credits was similar to the concept of a lighthouse in the dark sea, no matter if you were a moth or sailor, you were driven towards it.
Of course, nobody believed themselves to be the moth charging into the fire, everyone thought they could find treasure there.
As for Long Yi, he was the final BOSS guarding the treasure, awaiting the credits to further fill his treasure cove.
Like all other stories, a great treasure lured a new enemy in.
Only this time, this enemy that turned up was a bit special.
Nameless.
Even though he was Anonymous, he already had a whopping credit score, his score had now reached nine hundred and eighty thousand.
Then, another Anonymous appeared in the arena.
The entire arena’s score instantly reached ten million and one hundred thousand!
Long Yi’s heart abruptly pounded, as if a large lock had appeared before him, and behind the lock was everything he had always desired! However, in here, only the victor would hold the key!
"Long Yi, we brothers have come to collect the score you’re offering."
The tall Anonymous’s big head spoke, his completely black body had no distinguishing features.
"Idiot, shut up."
Another person yelled at the big head, then turned to Long Yi: "Kid, you have potential. If you perform well today, I’ll tell you our names, and when you join the army in the future, directly look for us; we guarantee you endless battles!"
These two must be the Fang Te and Feit brothers, and the big head must be Fang Te, while the normal-sized one must be Feit. The huge credit score even made them a little greedy. Therefore, they definitely moved decisively, instantly boosting the score to ten million and one hundred thousand. Then, they planned to beat Long Yi and take the score!
Nonetheless, Long Yi just grinned: "I feel it may be better if you don’t tell me your names."
"Why?" Feit asked, puzzled.
"Because once you tell me your names, I’ll definitely boast about it to everyone I know, telling them that you two brothers lost to me," Long Yi said.
Feit couldn’t help but smile. This Long Yi was really interesting. Was he always so confident in himself? But if he had heard of the great fame of the brothers Fang Te and Feit, he would probably not be so sure of himself. The youngest major general, impressive military exploits, had decapitated as many as thirty giant dragons on the battlefield. Even just the last kill would make any ordinary Dragon Rider respectful.
"Alright, I’ll see what you are capable of."
"Capability? Plenty of that!"
Long Yi didn’t waste his breath, he waved his trident, directly pointing at brothers Fang Te and Feit. The brothers felt completely covered by the sight of his weapon. It was as if he was completely dismissing them.
"My turn!" Fang Te laughed loudly, gripping the Dragon-slaying Sword, he jumped straight up!
If an ordinary Dragon Rider used this move, it would undoubtedly be seen as an amateurish one; after all, it’s difficult to find leverage in the air. If they encountered a fast response, in the world to display the Fighting Aura technique, there’s nowhere to hide in the air, only hard resistance.
But Fang Te is different!
He jumps extremely high! But, he comes down even faster! His whole body is instantly enveloped by his Fighting Aura, turning into a dragon head! Then, it’s like a huge meteor crashing down from the sky!
"Dragon Bite Kill!"
With both sides’ Fighting Aura as guidance, a head-on onslaught technique that charges directly at the opponent’s side from the sky. The impact is huge. It’s usually carried out on the backs of dragons, directly charging from one’s dragon’s back to the opponent’s dragon’s back for combat.
This is a high-level tactic in Dragon Rider combat, not something an ordinary Dragon Rider can easily execute.
And moreover, it’s a Five Mark Dragon!
From the start, Fang Te had no reservations! He has always been this way, he firmly believes that holding back against an enemy is equivalent to giving them the chance to kill him. So he aims to end the battle with one strike!
But! Long Yi didn’t give him this chance at all!
Clang!
The piercing sound of metal echoed through the Four Side Array, even the spectators felt some pain in their eardrums.
With his Trident held crossways, Long Yi’s twelve-layered Fighting Aura of the Three Mark Dragon fully unleashed, as well as unprecedented brute strength, he actually held up against this attack!
Hiss——
The power of this blow made Long Yi’s arms hurt. Luckily, the ground wasn’t real. If it was, I’m afraid his knees would have sunk into the ground up to his calves!
"Good lad! You withstand my Dragon Bite Kill? Now try this!" Fang Te laughed loudly, even feeling some pain in his own arms. The vibration coming from the Dragon-slaying Sword was telegraphed directly to Fang Te. If it failed to cut off the opponent’s weapon, theoretically speaking, aside from the part from the Fighting Aura, the counter shock they both take is the same.
The Fighting Aura failed to shatter Long Yi’s Fighting Aura, and his brute strength also couldn’t succeed in dominating Long Yi, which made Fang Te quite pleased.
Yes, pleased.
Fang Te represents the Empire’s present, while Long Yi represents the Empire’s future. Once Long Yi officially joins the troops, the strength of this Empire’s Dragon Riders will inevitably increase significantly!
However, they say that this bastard Long Yi is always arrogant. If his edges aren’t rubbed away little by little, he’s likely to suffer in the future.
With the identity of a veteran, Fang Te thought this way while finding an appropriate excuse for his bullying behavior.
The second attack! (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to qidian.com and vote for it. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
