Chapter 360: Good News, Bad News
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The two sides were aggressive, afraid that the other party would beat them to it.
In a breath, the two sides almost ran dozens of meters at the same time.
However, after the [Explosive Slime] blasted away the surrounding [Metal Devouring Ants], Wang Xiao and the others were nowhere to be seen. “What’s going on? Where are Wang Xiao and the others?”
Tang Hengshan was stunned when he saw this. He suddenly thought of something and looked at Su Qingmo. “Could it be that you blew him up?”
Su Qingmo was also stunned when she heard this. She opened the interface and shook her head. “It has nothing to do with me. At such a close distance, they’ll definitely be eliminated if they got blasted. However, our points haven’t changed. ”
“Then where are they?”
Tang Hengshan asked in return, “There were a total of four people. Why are they gone?”
“How would I know!”
Su Qingmo rolled her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, “Perhaps they escaped in the chaos just now. After all, it took us some time to prepare. Wang Xiao and Gao Lixuan are not fools. It’s impossible for them to sit here and wait for death! ”
No one answered, but from everyone’s disappointed expressions, they clearly accepted this explanation.
The chosen target was gone just like that. Everyone’s expressions did not look too good. However, since the time was not over, the competition had to continue.
“There are too many mutated beasts here. Wang Xiao and the others have few people and small targets. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to find them.”
As Su Qingmo spoke, she looked at Fang Tianyu, her beautiful eyes flickering. “In that case...
Before she could finish speaking, Fang Tianyu had already understood what she meant. She shouted, “Lin Dong,” and the ten gold quality [Blood Men] immediately moved and pounced at the people of the Flowing Cloud Academy!
Since the Kaiyang Academy had taken the initiative to fight, the people of the Flowing Cloud Academy naturally did not stand on ceremony. With a thought, they summoned their soldiers and the two sides immediately started a huge battle!
At the same time, five meters below the battlefield.
When they realized that the two academies had begun to fight, the four of them revealed evil smiles.
“Brilliant! Truly brilliant!”
Gao Lixuan raised his thumb at Wang Xiao. “First, use nonsense to wear down their patience. When they point the spearhead at us, they’ll escape. There’s no time to search for us in the remaining time. They can only attack each other. As expected, you’re simply evil!”
“...I’ll take that as a compliment.”
“But Idol, there’s something I don’t quite understand.”
Yi Han raised his hand weakly. “Now that the two teams are fighting, if someone is eliminated, the difference in our scores will be even bigger, right?”
“That’s right, but it can’t be helped.”
Wang Xiao sighed and explained, “The strategy of stalling for time has been seen through. It’s not beneficial for us to fight head-on. We can only give the other party points. Now, we can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
At least we still have a chance to protect second place and fight for first.”
At this point, a sudden tremor transmitted down from the ground. Wang Xiao immediately began to laugh evilly. “Moreover, their battle now is very intense. In the end, both sides will most likely suffer. Perhaps we still have a chance to benefit!”
“I see!”
Yi Han nodded in realization and also gave Wang Xiao a thumbs up. “Brother Xuan is right. Indeed, you’re evil!”
Wang Xiao gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to curse. He then changed the topic and looked at Gao Lixuan. “But fortunately, Brother Xuan still has the energy to create this underground space. Otherwise, we would have to flee now.”
At the mention of this, Gao Lixuan’s expression suddenly became a little stiff. He pursed his lips and whispered, “Um... I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?”
The other three were stunned. Yi Han directly shouted, “Good news!”
Gao Lixuan opened the interface and opened the competition information interface. “The academy’s ranking assessment will end in seven minutes.”
“Is that good news?”
Yi Han frowned when he heard this. “Wasn’t there only ten minutes left just n-(0VelbIn
Gao Lixuan pursed his lips and did not say anything. However, Wang Xiao’s expression changed as if he had thought of something. “Brother Xuan... What bad news are you talking about?”
“Hmm... I’m out of energy.”
Gao Lixuan’s voice was not much louder than a mosquito. Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment before reacting. Then, his expression instantly turned ugly!
Without energy, it meant that Gao Lixuan could no longer activate his [Lord Talent]. The underground space where everyone stayed might not collapse, but if they wanted to return to the ground, they could only leave by digging themselves out!
The distance of five meters was not considered far, but this space was created by Gao Lixuan’s talent. There was endless lava outside the earth wall. It was more than enough to burn them to death eight times over!
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao hurriedly opened the interface and wanted to find an [Energy Potion] for Gao Lixuan, but he realized that his potion had already been drunk by the crazy Lang Buli after he surrendered to the Lang brothers in the [Challenge Arena]...
Yi Han and Gao Lixuan were also one of the main combat strengths previously. Their energy consumption was also not small
“Why didn’t you say so earlier!”
Wang Xiao widened his eyes and questioned, “It’s easy for you to say that you’re out of energy. Do you want us to swim up from the lava?”
“It’s my fault?”
Gao Lixuan also widened his eyes and retorted angrily, “Just now, you only asked me to create an underground space to hide. You didn’t ask me how much energy I have left!”
Wang Xiao was instantly rendered speechless. Then, he sat on the ground as if he had rotted. “Then let’s wait here. In any case, we can still leave when the time comes. It’s just that this score...”
Although Wang Xiao did not finish speaking, the others also understood what he meant.
Now, they were no longer able to control the battle. The only thing they could do was wait for time to run out. It was definitely impossible for them to get first place. Whether they could even keep second place depended on luck. Suddenly falling into an absolute passive state, the atmosphere instantly became silent.
At this moment, Zhou Xiruo, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said,
“Um... I still have one.”
As Zhou Xiruo spoke, a white light flashed in her hand, and a potion that emitted a faint blue light appeared out of thin air.
“[Energy Potion]!”
Gao Lixuan’s eyes lit up. He took it and poured it into his mouth.
Wang Xiao was also delighted, but he immediately became puzzled. “The resources we surrendered and lost have all returned to me after I killed the Lang brothers. Where did you get this potion?”
“Tianyu gave it to me previously when I was injured and unconscious...”
Halfway through her sentence, Zhou Xiruo’s pretty face suddenly turned red.
She stammered like a mosquito, “She gave it to me to replenish my energy, but
I felt that I couldn’t help, so I wanted to save it for Wang Xiao...”
Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. Gao Lixuan, who was at the side, was instantly petrified. He raised half of the [Energy Potion] in his hand and froze in midair.. He didn’t know if he should drink it or not!
