Chapter 88 Final
Chapter 88 Final
The Magical Girl League in Miyuki City has a one-day rest day after three days of intense competition.
The main purpose is to give the finalists some time to rest and recover. After fighting their way through the brutal elimination rounds, they will all have some injuries or at least be exhausted.
In addition, there was a lot of online promotion to build momentum for this final competition, and this time, even the "Beginner Group" was included in the promotion.
"The Successor of [Dawn] VS A Super Genius Who Learned Transformation at the Seed Level?!"
Although it has a somewhat sensationalist feel to it, it has indeed successfully attracted a lot of attention and made people quite interested in this "battle of the future".
Even on the last day, planes continued to land at Fukazuki City Airport, as many people came specifically to watch the matches.
It's important to understand that during the crucial period of mid-July, various cities are hosting their own regional competitions. For these citizens to forgo their local matches and spend a significant amount of money on plane tickets to travel to other cities to watch is truly remarkable. Some estimate that this year's league may have attracted the second-highest number of out-of-town tourists to Shenyue City, only behind Huancheng.
The Ring City is special, needless to say, only there are [Lei] level competitions, it cannot be compared with other places.
From the perspective of boosting the economy and consumption, that chubby mayor must be grinning from ear to ear.
The atmosphere at the venue was so lively, not to mention the online live stream, where the number of viewers has multiplied several times over. There have also been many posts online about predictions and discussions about the match.
However, it's clear to anyone with eyes that the competition between Lin Yongxi and Duan Zhiyao alone couldn't have created such a strong attraction. In fact, many people weren't there to watch them.
Most people went to the Phoenix Hall to watch the Intermediate Group competition.
It seems there's something even more captivating about the finals over there...
"Don't overthink it, just focus on playing."
"Um."
However, just as Chen Mu said, Lin Yongxi really had no mind to pay attention to anything else right now. After exchanging punches, she walked out of the dark contestant tunnel.
For a moment, the deafening cheers and applause, along with the host's enthusiastic announcements, resounded throughout the venue.
"Let us warmly welcome... Lin Yongxi! A native of Shenyue City, inheritor of that light! Reaching this point at 18 years old, having participated in the beginner's group competition, a truly inspiring example!"
"Great! I support you the most!"
"You're my role model, keep it up!"
Hearing the host's shouts, Lin Yongxi couldn't help but complain in her heart: I'm not a native of Shenyue City at all. Neither my sister nor I are locals!
She simply couldn't stand how people here treated 18 as a sign of being old, when she was clearly still a vibrant and beautiful young woman.
But this was a formal occasion, and there were quite a few cameras filming her, so she managed to maintain her cool and serious persona and walked onto the ring with a blank expression.
"Let's give a warm welcome to... Duan Zhiyao! A dark horse who emerged from nowhere, a true genius! Was that fleeting glimpse of a gem a transformation? Let's wait and see!"
Just then, Duan Zhiyao from the opposite side also came on stage, and the host gave her a similarly enthusiastic introduction:
"Will the dazzling light pierce through everything, or will the gem remain unmoved? Let us witness firsthand this clash between the strongest spear and the strongest shield!"
"You have to win! I've bet everything I have on you!"
"We can definitely win! Who can defeat the Gem Body at this stage!"
It's clear that Duan Zhiyao's personality is distinctly different from Lin Yongxi's. As she walked out of the contestant's passage, she jumped slightly and raised her hands, creating a lively atmosphere.
It feels like if a microphone were handed to her at this moment, Duan Zhiyao would shout something like, "We're all the same age, I didn't mean to use a lower dimension to attack you."
She stepped onto the stage with great enthusiasm and vigor, and as soon as she saw Lin Yongxi, she raised an eyebrow:
"Oh? A magic weapon?"
"Yes." Lin Yongxi nodded. At this moment, she held a long, emerald-green stick in her hand, which emitted a faint chill. She then took it onto the stage.
The magical weapon [Ice Jade] is a magical weapon given to my brother-in-law by the Dean of the Demon Academy as compensation. It has the effects of amplifying magical power and hardening, making it a powerful and precious weapon.
This was something she had specifically reported to the referee before the match. After all, it was her most powerful weapon right now, and if she didn't use her trump card in the final, it would be worthless.
It's time for her to put her stick-fighting skills, which she has been practicing diligently for so many days, to come into play.
"Not bad, you've finally shown some attitude. I thought you were going to admit defeat right away."
Duan Zhiyao smiled. Although she had no weapon in her hand, her confidence remained unchanged: "Axi, if you let me have my fill, I'll make an exception and forgive you."
"I don't remember ever doing anything to wrong you."
Lin Yongxi laughed too, but simply held the long stick horizontally in front of her, striking a pose: "Don't worry, I'll teach you a lesson and make you obediently apologize to your older sister."
"The match begins!"
At the referee's signal, the two made their moves almost simultaneously!
Duan Zhiyao immediately placed his hand in front of him and shouted, "[Imaginary Body - Violet Stone]!"
Instantly, the magic around her became much more active, forming a bluish-green light that covered her body. This was clearly not just a simple enhancement of magic.
It's clear that, with the blessing of this secret technique, her body has already completed the transformation into the [Gemstone Body] within seconds!
Duan Zhiyao knew that Lin Yongxi's attack output was powerful, and that he was good at surprise attacks, especially that terrifying [Instant Light] which could appear at any time...
Therefore, we must be cautious and defensive from the very beginning, otherwise we may be caught off guard and suffer a fatal setback due to carelessness.
boom!
Sure enough, the next moment, Lin Yongxi shot up in front of him like an arrow. Her expression had completely lost its previous calmness, leaving only ferocity!
He swung the long stick in his hand and slammed it heavily onto Duan Zhiyao's body!
"Well!"
Because of chanting the imaginary body, Duan Zhiyao was a moment too late to dodge. Fortunately, he managed to block with his arm at the last moment, and a crisp cracking sound was heard!
Click.
The spot on her arm where the long stick had struck her had split open, and the cracks at the wound resembled gemstones—the blue-green iolite.
"Oh... Iolite?" Lin Yongxi, even at close range, still leaned forward and looked up, maintaining a calm observation. She finally heard the other person's chant clearly.
"Hmph, I've completed my transformation, that's the end of it."
Duan Zhiyao looked down and sneered. Clearly, although the wounds inflicted by the stick damaged the [Gemstone Body], the injuries were limited.
But Lin Yongxi didn't create distance to dodge; instead, he continued to swing his sword!
"Okay, let's see how hard it is!"
