Chapter 332 Blazing Vanguard, Legendary Advanced Class
"My God, what's going on? Why did Jiang Yaoyue also admit defeat?"
"That's impossible. How could a battle maniac admit defeat?"
"I must be seeing things."
The surrounding students were discussing among themselves, none of them expecting Jiang Yaoyue to admit defeat.
Fangzhou didn't care; his goal was to occupy the main duel position and prevent anyone who had a chance to take first place from winning.
With his current points advantage, as long as he can maintain this lead, Haicheng Military Academy's top position is unshakeable.
The next challenger is Mo Zishu, who was just instantly killed by Fang Zhou.
"No need to teleport anymore, I concede." Mo Zishu, the number one seed from Tiancheng Military Academy, who had already revived and rushed over, said with a gloomy face.
Then, the Ark entered another fifteen-second countdown.
"Holy crap, how come all these big shots have admitted defeat?"
"It feels a bit fake, lacking fighting spirit!"
"Come on, haven't you seen how Ark fought against all the other heroes before?"
The students watching the match discussed it amongst themselves; some questioned it, some were amazed, and some expressed their understanding.
The students watching the game split into two factions.
Most of the students who have been watching the Ark battle livestream can naturally understand the wise choice of these top players.
Meanwhile, a small number of spectators who hadn't paid much attention to Ark were completely bewildered.
They simply couldn't figure out why they were all giving up.
Fangzhou stood on the arena, feeling a mix of emotions.
He understood that the reason he could make so many strong people choose to admit defeat was not only because of his strength, but also because of the intimidating power he had shown in the previous battles.
However, this deterrent force may give him an advantage for the time being, but the real strong will not give up. One day they will make a comeback.
However, Ark has this confidence.
Those who are left behind by him have absolutely no chance of catching up with him.
"When did you become so timid?" A voluptuous female student asked Mo Zishu from outside the dueling arena.
"Sang Ling, you are no match for him." Mo Zishu's expression remained unchanged, his tone indifferent.
"Is that so? I'll really give it a try," Sang Ling said calmly. "Maybe I'm no match for you, but I won't run away without a fight. Are you even a man?"
"Hehe, you'll know once you try." Mo Zishu's words had two layers of meaning.
"You're too soft, I'm not interested." Sang Ling glanced at Mo Zishu, then looked at Fang Zhou. "I'd rather choose Fang Zhou, he seems pretty tough."
"Good luck, and hopefully you won't be traumatized." Before Mo Zishu could finish speaking, Sang Ling had already teleported in.
Sang Ling glanced around the arena, then said to Fang Zhou opposite her, "Apprentice-level necromancer, I've heard you're quite powerful?"
"I'd say it's pretty good," Fang Zhou said, his tone relaxed.
"Since you're so self-aware, I'll go easy on you later and won't let you die too miserably." Sang Ling's tone was full of confidence, as if she were stating a fact.
"Thank you." Fang Zhou shrugged, then grabbed the necromancer orb in his hand.
He wondered to himself where this female student got her confidence from.
The arena wasn't very large, and Ark was completely within the opponent's charging range.
As the countdown ended, the giant sword in Sang Ling's hand suddenly burst into red flames, transforming into a flaming sword.
"Explosive Vanguard." A glint flashed in Fang Zhou's eyes.
Blazing Vanguard is a rare combat class known for its ferocious damage output, and it is not lacking in control abilities.
The weapon in his hand was essentially enchanted with fire, making it incredibly powerful.
"You've got some sense, but I won't hold back until you fall." Sang Ling's voice was full of confidence.
brush--
Sang Ling clearly had enough confidence in her speed and strength.
Without the slightest hesitation, she charged straight at Fang Zhou.
Her movements were like a red lightning bolt, instantly covering a distance of several meters.
boom--
However, she had only charged ten yards when she crashed into a skeleton that appeared out of nowhere.
Although the skeleton shattered under the violent force, her charge was halted as a result.
"That's interesting, let's do it again."
Sang Ling launched another charge, leaving a trail of flames on the ground she passed through.
boom--
Just like last time, she bumped into a skeleton again.
This time she got really serious. If the first time was just luck or chance, the second time definitely wasn't.
But calculating her charging point in an instant was extremely difficult.
If the timing of summoning the skeletons is wrong, either she will have already charged forward, or she will have bypassed the skeletons and continued charging.
"You really know how to do it, let's try again." Sang Ling's competitive spirit was completely ignited.
"Then let's go." Fang Zhou beckoned with his finger, appearing very relaxed.
"You're asking for it!" Sang Ling roared in anger.
So far, Ark hasn't used a single other skill, which is a clear indication that they don't take her seriously.
"Come and kill me then." Fang Zhou still smiled.
Being on the main duel stage, he could gain points every minute, so naturally he would try to stall for time as much as possible.
For him now, it doesn't really matter who he spars with.
"Fire Blade Dance!"
Sang Ling's eyes were practically spitting fire, and her arms became afterimages.
A series of illusory, crisscrossing fiery giant swords intertwined to form an irregular sword net, rapidly enveloping the ark.
"The range is quite large, but it's too slow."
Looking at the crisscrossing sword net, Fangzhou, relying on his agility far surpassing that of all the other participants, twisted his body slightly and irregularly, as if he were performing a strange dance.
To the spectators, the sword net pierced through Fangzhou's body, but to everyone's disappointment, Fangzhou remained completely unharmed.
He moved like a nimble butterfly, weaving between the flaming greatswords, each movement perfectly avoiding the attacks.
"Go to hell, are you even human?"
Sang Ling was startled.
She originally thought that her "Fire Blade Dance" would be enough to block every escape route of the Ark, but the Ark seemed to have foreseen it and avoided it every time.
If Fangzhou had dodged it using a movement skill, she could accept it a little.
But to pass through the Sword Net in such a seemingly impossible way is something no one could have imagined.
However, right under her nose, all of this happened.
"Hurry up, you've been standing there for five seconds. If you're going to surrender, just do it already." Fang Zhou beckoned again, his tone relaxed.
"Arrogant!" Sang Ling launched another charge.
However, this time Ark didn't use skeletons to block; it got serious.
boom--
A skeletal spear was launched!
Breaking move!
Fang Zhou successfully broke through the attack, interrupting Sang Ling's charge. She couldn't help but let out a painful scream before kneeling on one knee.
Fangzhou stood still, making no other move.
Sang Ling was furious and embarrassed; her anger had reached its peak.
"Explosive Whirlwind!"
After Sang Ling got up, she brandished her flaming greatsword, spun around, and formed a whirlwind of explosive flames that quickly approached the ark.
This is actually a lower-level variant of the [Whirlwind Slash] skill, which is a common skill for Black Iron-level combatants.
Ark's skeletal clones were also proficient in this, so he was clear about the general effects of the skill.
Ark leaped backward, moving away from the range of the Blazing Cyclone, and then fired a Skeleton Shackle, which was blocked by the Blazing Cyclone.
As Fangzhou flapped its skeletal wings to dodge the rapidly approaching whirlwind of fire, it said, "You look really good when you spin, but you're just too slow."
Wow! ...
Sang Ling was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
The students watching were dumbfounded.
On the arena, the battle between Fangzhou and Sangling became unusually comical.
Fang Zhou easily neutralized every attack Sang Ling made, while Fang Zhou's counterattacks caused her great suffering.
"Are you alright? Are you dizzy? Do you need me to help you?"
Fang Zhou's words were like ice water poured over Sang Ling's heart, igniting the anger in her chest.
"I'll fight you to the death!"
Sang Ling gritted her teeth and unleashed all her hidden skills.
Even so, Ark still played it like an easy game, effortlessly dodging every attack.
Sang Ling returned empty-handed, having been teased by Fang Zhou for a long time, and she was furious.
Just then, Bai Xiaochun's voice came from the other side of the barrier, breaking the stalemate.
"Fangzhou, you're having a lot of fun!"
"Ahem." Fang Zhou chuckled awkwardly, realizing that there were still many people watching, and it wasn't very elegant to humiliate a mere sheep like this.
He coughed twice, adjusted his posture, and said to the panting Sang Ling, "Don't mind me, I was just joking. You're no match for me."
Please concede defeat; you'll still have a chance to challenge for other duel slots.
Sang Ling was panting heavily, her eyes fixed on Fang Zhou, and said, "You wait, I will come back to find you."
'
After saying that, Sang Ling immediately admitted defeat and was teleported away.
Among the onlookers, many turned their attention to Cheng Hao, who was standing to the side.
He was the number one cadet at the Mountain City Military Academy and ranked fifth in the individual points leaderboard of the recruit competition.
"Cheng Hao, are you confident?" someone asked.
Cheng Hao glanced at Fang Zhou and shook his head slightly. "I won't humiliate myself. The third duel position suits me better."
After saying that, he turned and left the preparation area, leaving behind a series of soft sighs.
"Even Cheng Hao said he's no match for him, is this guy really that good?" someone whispered.
"You can give it a try." Someone said this, but no one responded.
Fifteen seconds later, a confident-looking warlock student dressed in a long robe was teleported to the opposite side of the ark.
He snorted coldly and said, "I'd like to see if you're as good as they say."
Fang Zhou simply replied, "I'm not amazing just because they flatter me."
However, you will never see it.
"I'm ranked ninth in points, isn't that enough?" the warlock student roared.
Fangzhou didn't speak, but instead held up two fingers.
As the match began, Fangzhou raised his hand and released a seemingly ordinary Death Ripple.
A hint of disdain flashed in the warlock student's eyes, and his figure suddenly became ethereal as he used a movement skill to evade the attack.
"I thought you were so great, but—"
puff--
However, the moment he regained his footing, a skeletal spear that followed him pierced through his defenses and precisely struck his throat.
Sold out instantly!
"Next." Fangzhou pointed to the surrounding stands.
Soon, another challenger stepped onto the stage, this time a knight clad in heavy armor.
However, the result was entirely predictable.
It's still a combination of two skills: first, use Death Ripple to force the opponent to move, then immediately follow up with a deadly spear that hits the vital point and kills instantly.
The second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth matches—
As each battle ended, the arena gradually quieted down, and no one dared to step forward and challenge anyone again.
Ark's near-perfect performance instilled unprecedented pressure and awe in everyone.
That's insane.
Regardless of profession or which student he faces, Ark always resolves the battle with just two moves, without exception.
What's even more disheartening is that everyone knows Ark is a necromancer capable of summoning hundreds of skeletons.
And now, even such a massive army of skeletons hasn't been forced out.
This means that the battle ended before Ark even truly unleashed its full power.
"Anyone else going in?" Ark's voice echoed in the silent main duel arena.
After waiting for a minute, the room remained completely silent.
Everyone was speechless; faced with such an opponent, they simply didn't know where to begin.
They were confident, but that confidence seemed so insignificant in the face of the Ark.
Some even muttered complaints: "Damn it, can't you just let someone use a skill?"
Even the most powerful professional players, if they are instantly killed before they can even use their skills, what's the fun in the competition?
Seeing this, Fangzhou simply stood still, closed his eyes to rest, and looked quite relaxed.
Seeing his behavior, the crowd that had been watching began to disperse, since no challenge meant no excitement.
Meanwhile, the battles in the second and third duel positions were raging fiercely.
The second duel spot was firmly occupied by Jiang Yaoyue from Longcheng Military Academy.
Every move she makes is full of power, giving people an irresistible sense of pressure.
Meng Hongzhuang stood aside, glaring angrily at Jiang Yaoyue. She had just been defeated by her, but the difference in their strength left her helpless.
In the third duel position, Wei Beifeng from Tiger City Military Academy sat firmly in his place.
Instead of confronting Jiang Yaoyue head-on, he chose a more secure position.
11. Gong Yaran felt helpless, her heart was filled with sorrow.
In the third duel position, Wei Beifeng from Tiger City Military Academy sat firmly in his place.
Instead of confronting Jiang Yaoyue head-on, he chose a more secure position.
Despite this, he still holds a solid second place in the standings.
Wei Beifeng's tactics are clearly conservative. He doesn't launch attacks blindly, but patiently waits for opportunities, and once an opportunity arises, he delivers a fatal blow to his opponent.
Although Jiang Yaoyue and Wei Beifeng are both very powerful, at least in front of them, the other students can still see a glimmer of hope.
But on the Ark, all that remained for the people was profound despair.
Fangzhou stood there quietly for over an hour until the recruit competition finally came to an end.
