Chapter 504, Even Mere Decorations Could Easily Defeat Ordinary Graduates

Translator: Silavin

 

Jian Ying also had a tone of experience in combat, so she was not one to be underestimated. She quickly stabilised her posture in mid-air whilst anticipating that Meng Jia would certainly not give up such an opportunity to pursue and attack.

 

She summoned her other two Flying Swords almost without looking, now holding nothing back.

 

Jian Ying’s other two Flying Swords were the Ten Thousand Flowers Sword and the Hellfire Twin Scythes.

 

The Ten Thousand Flowers Sword was a sword composed of countless small swords. It could transform from one sword to ten thousand swords. She could utilise these countless small swords to either attack or defend, and they were effective in each.

 

The Hellfire Twin Scythes dealt Additional Damage of the Dark Element and the Fire Element. They served as Jian Ying’s way to deal Magic Damage.

 

Jian Ying directly made the Ten Thousand Flowers Sword disassemble, arranging them densely packed in mid-air, almost laying flat like a shield.

 

At the same time, the Hellfire Twin Scythes was mixed among them, burning with black-red flames. They ignited the small swords, adding to their formidable defence.

 

Jian Ying’s prediction was on point. Almost at the moment her two swords formed a defensive barrier, Meng Jia had already charged over with another claw strike.

 

The power of this claw was only stronger than before, not weaker.

 

However, this time, it was the Ten Thousand Flowers Sword and the Hellfire Twin Scythes that confronted Meng Jia’s attack.

 

They handled it with ease.

 

Especially the Ten Thousand Flowers Sword. Once it transformed into many small swords, it was like a stream of water. Facing powerful impacts, it did not have to endure head-on like the Blood Breaker Sword, the Army Breaker Sword and the Ocean Freezing Sword earlier.

 

Countless small swords burning with black-red flames flowed in mid-air, completely absorbing and deflecting the power of Meng Jia’s strike.

 

Meng Jia felt like he was hitting cotton; there was no point of impact, yet all the force was absorbed.

 

Blocking Meng Jia’s attack this way might not seem like much, but it required extremely sharp Combat Instinct and great control over her swords as its foundation.

 

Jian Ying’s current strength absolutely qualified her to contend for second place among the freshmen!

 

After neutralising Meng Jia’s strike, Jian Ying finally gained an opportunity to stand firm.

 

After landing and stabilising herself, she recalled her Army Breaker Sword, Blood Breaker Sword, and Ocean Freezing Sword to her side. She soon launched them together with her Hellfire Twin Scythes and Ten Thousand Flowers Sword to attack and encircle Meng Jia.

 

At this point, Meng Jia was almost indistinguishable from a Humanoid Monster. He was constantly roaring, wanting to tear through the encirclement of these swords and directly attack Jian Ying and Lu Fan.

 

However, Jian Ying effortlessly controlled the five swords, forming attacks that surrounded him completely. It prevented Meng Jia from breaking free. She could even control the different swords to combine with each other, forming new Skills and unleashing even greater power.

 

Previously, Jian Ying had already mastered the combination techniques for her swords. After changing her Profession to Sword Dancer, which was similar to her original Profession of Sword Tamer, she refined her control over her swords to perfection.

 

Jian Ying’s encirclement of swords had virtually no gaps or weaknesses. Even though Meng Jia’s Attributes were ridiculously high, he still could not easily break free and was temporarily contained within.

 

Moreover, when those swords released Skills, they clearly wounded Meng Jia, leaving many injuries on his body.

 

These wounds did not bleed, but leaked Blood Qi, making the surrounding smell of blood even more intense.

 

For now, it seemed Jian Ying had gained the upper hand, temporarily suppressing Meng Jia.

 

Jian Ying was not the only one getting the upper hand though. On Tao Xiaoman and Qin Qiu’s side, the fight was also evenly matched, though it appeared that Tao Xiaoman and Qin Qiu would ultimately prevail.

 

This was because Tao Xiaoman’s Profession Characteristics were too versatile. In contrast, Jiang Fengyun’s side only had Xu Jing as their Support, and he lacked any Healing Skills.

 

As the situation developed, as long as Tao Xiaoman could hold on, she would inevitably lead Qin Qiu to defeat their opponents.

 

This situation was unexpected for everyone present.

 

Everyone thought today’s match would largely depend on whether Lu Fan or Meng Jia was stronger, while Jian Ying and the others would likely be evenly matched against Jiang Fengyun.

 

But now, before Lu Fan, the ‘Final Boss’, had even made a move, Jian Ying and the others had already caused Meng Jia and his team considerable trouble. If Lu Fan were to join the fight, what suspense would remain!?

 

Admittedly, Meng Jia, Jiang Fengyun, and the others had been too arrogant.

 

They could not even get past Jian Ying, which was truly disappointing.

 

At the same time, this also revealed to everyone just how powerful these girls were.

 

Each one was so quiet and unassuming. Yet, they possessed such terrifying Combat Power.

 

There really were not just mere decorations in Lu Fan’s team…

 

Or perhaps, even those who seemed like mere decorations, as long as they were around Lu Fan, could easily defeat ordinary graduates?

 

The battle continued for a full ten minutes without a clear outcome.

 

The audience watched with great relish, only disappointed that Lu Fan still refused to make a move, who was acting like another spectator enjoying the show.

 

However, during this time, the battle situation did not remain unchanged.

 

Especially between Jian Ying and Meng Jia. The advantage gradually shifted from Jian Ying to Meng Jia.

 

Strangely, during this period, Jian Ying had maintained the absolute initiative, even repeatedly injuring Meng Jia with her swords, leaving many wounds on his body.

 

Yet, every time Meng Jia was injured, not only did it not affect his Combat Power, but it made the Blood Qi around him even more intense. In fact, his Attributes continued to soar.

 

For Jian Ying, controlling five swords to attack brought her strength to its peak, nearly without weakness. For a time, she was even able to suppress Meng Jia. However, this also placed a terrible drain on her Mana Pool. Even though Jian Ying had equipped a set of new equipment that greatly enhanced her Attributes, after exerting full power for over ten minutes, her face had turned pale, with sweat constantly dripping from her forehead.

 

As the situation developed, Jian Ying lost all advantage, and her five swords gradually failed to contain Meng Jia.

 

Meng Jia was like a bloodthirsty beast. After seeing that the cage confining him was about to be torn open, his eyes glowed red.

 

Seeing that Jian Ying was about to be defeated, Lu Fan finally rose from the sofa. This caused many exclamations from the outside.

 

“Look! Lu Fan stood up! Is he finally going to make a move!?”

 

“Probably. Though Jian Ying is stronger than we imagined, it seems like she can’t maintain this for much longer. If this continues, Meng Jia will surely tear her apart. With the other two busy, Lu Fan needs to take over, right?”

 

“I’m really looking forward to seeing Lu Fan in action. The last time I saw him make a move was during the battle with Wind Cloud Pavilion.”

 

“Actually, you can’t really say Lu Fan took action at that time. After all, he only summoned his Pet Dragon, which frightened Jiang Fengyun and the others till they lost consciousness. We never saw how strong he really is.”

 

“Yeah, I prefer the battle between him and Chen Tianzhi back then. That was a spectacular fight. I wonder if we’ll get to see such an exciting battle today?”
