Chapter 307 Four Against Two
Since it was a team battle competition, Violet began to set up a magic circle near the arena, not because she was afraid that the magic that suddenly flew out from inside would hit the Abyss Beast spectators outside.
The concern was that the fighting might be too intense, potentially causing injuries to the magical girls.
The Kikyo Judgment Team consists of three melee magical girls and one ranged magical girl, while the Osmanthus Judgment Team consists of three ranged magical girls and one melee magical girl.
"Green Ivy, you won't deliver a fatal blow to your teammate like you did in the last match against the Sunflower Judgment Team, will you?" Xia Qing teased.
"Hongmei, how dare you say that to me?"
Bai Youqing turned to look at Xia Qing in disbelief. "I couldn't stop because I had been holding onto my magic for too long. But your Firestorm was truly indiscriminate. If Qingju hadn't come out in time, Hanmei would probably have been eliminated along with the Sunflower Judgment Team."
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. This time is different. Sister Violet is watching from the side. Don't embarrass yourself at this time. Otherwise, you'll not only lose face for our Kikyo Judgment Team, but also for Sister Violet."
"I know, Violet Sister isn't just yours." Bai Youqing nodded.
As Violet's magical orb was released in the center of the arena, the magical girls of Kikyo's Judgment Squad rushed towards their targets. Their goal was simple: to separate the opposing magical girls.
Based on their experience fighting the Sunflower Judgment Squad last time, they know that the Kikyo Judgment Squad's magic range is generally quite wide, making it very easy to accidentally injure teammates.
Upon their first encounter, the Osmanthus Judgment Team was caught off guard. They hadn't expected their opponents to be so aggressive and unpredictable from the start, seemingly without any strategy.
On the Kikyo Judgment Squad side, Green Ivy, Red Rose, and Winter Plum are all melee magical girls, while Blue Orange is a ranged magical girl. Their strategy is simple: to accurately cut through the back row, one by one, while Blue Orange is responsible for giving them various buffs.
It was the same old faces: Bai Youqing faced off against Xiao Fei, Xia Qing and Han Xue faced off against Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu, and the only melee mage was kept in check by Li Xuanyu.
In the previous one-on-one fight, Bai Youqing was dominating the magical girl Xiaofei, who would occasionally retaliate. But now, Xiaofei isn't fighting Bai Youqing at all; her goal is to reunite with her teammates.
The same goes for Xiaowen and Xiaowu. Even though they had defeated Xia Qing and Han Xue before, they never showed any greed for battle.
The other melee magical girl, Xiao Jing, completely ignored Li Xuanyu behind her and instead kept flashing around her teammates. Every time Bai Youqing and the others were about to get one of the magical girls out of the arena, she would appear in time to share the firepower and reduce the pressure on her teammates.
Bai Youqing and the others also hated her to the core, but she retreated after helping her teammates defuse the fire, without fighting them at all.
While Li Xuanyu could also provide magical attack assistance from behind, most of her attacks were area-of-effect damage, so she dared not use them while Bai Youqing and the others were entangled with the enemy. She could only provide buffs to them from the side.
In the early stages of the competition, it could be said that the Kikyo Judgment Team completely dominated the Osmanthus Judgment Team. Bai Youqing wielded the Green Ivy Sword with ease, each strike brimming with vitality, capable of both offense and defense.
Xia Qing's Flame Spear was like a blazing sun, radiating heat enough to melt steel; Han Xue's Frost Spear, with each thrust, brought a bone-chilling cold. Coupled with Li Xuanyu's ranged buffs, the Kikyo Judgment Squad's offensive was like a tidal wave, one wave after another.
However, as the Osmanthus Judgment Team gathered together, the battle on the arena seemed to undergo a slight change: "Spatial Distortion!"
As the magical girl Aya chanted her magic spell, the air around the Kikyo Judgment Squad seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, and the surrounding scenery began to show strange fluctuations.
With a gentle wave of her hand, the magical girl Aya seemed to pluck the strings of the universe, and the scene before her suddenly blurred, space began to distort, as if an invisible force was tearing apart the veil of reality.
The sky, the earth, the wild grass, and even people rippled slightly, like a stone thrown into water, creating concentric circles of waves. Objects that were originally stable now seemed uncertain, sometimes clear, sometimes blurry, giving one the feeling of being on the edge of a dream and reality.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, almost the instant her teammates interfered with Kikyo's Judgment Squad, magical girl Xiaofei transformed into the most dazzling sun in the sky. She parted her cherry lips and softly shouted, "Holy Light - Gather!"
The next second, she gently waved the magic wand she was holding, as if she had pressed a button. One after another, dazzling magic arrows emerged from the blinding sun. They were densely packed together, as if the stars in the Milky Way had been gathered here, ready to unleash their brilliance together.
"come down!"
This gathered energy suddenly exploded, as if tens of thousands of rays of light were cascading down like a waterfall, like a violent storm on a summer thunderstorm night, covering a large area and impacting the Kikyo Judgment Squad's defenses.
These lights possess immense destructive power; they erupt with intense flashes, sparks fly, and dust billows whenever they touch any obstacle.
Normally, Kikyo's Judgment Squad wouldn't panic at all, but at this moment, the magical girls, interfered with by Aya, had no way to fight back and could only passively defend themselves.
"My head is spinning! Qingju, can you help us purify this magic?"
Xia Qing called out to the twisting, contorted figure behind her.
This uncomfortable feeling was unlike anything she had ever experienced before, even when she went out to ride the Ferris wheel or the pirate ship, she had never felt this dizzy.
So sad!
Han Xue and the others around her were also in pain, clutching their heads as if they might collapse at any moment.
"I've only learned offensive magic, and my buff magic is all basic. It's not very effective against spatial magic."
Qingju was somewhat speechless. She had always thought that as a magical girl, all she needed to do was learn attack magic.
She had only glanced at these purification and control spells and then ignored them. Now, looking back, she felt a little regretful.
"Xiao Qing, didn't you learn Kikyo-senpai's Guardian of Light? Use it! I'm going to take down that magical girl who keeps interfering with our battle!"
Xia Qing turned to look at Bai Youqing beside her, only to find that the other had already cast a shield on herself and rushed out.
The target of the other side was none other than the magical girl Aya and the magical girl Fei in the sky.
"Light Wing Slash!"
"Phantom Sword!"
Almost the instant Bai Youqing's pale green figure reached Xiao Wen and Xiao Fei's side and was about to swing her long sword, a ghostly girl suddenly appeared in front of Bai Youqing, blocking Xiao Wen and Xiao Fei's path.
The magic longsword in her hand drew a graceful arc in the air, and then, beams of transparent sword energy shot out from the tip of her sword, spreading out like mercury spilling onto the ground, forming an impenetrable net of sword energy that completely blocked Bai Youqing's "Light Wing Slash". These sword energies intertwined and collided fiercely.
Xiao Jing's figure appeared and disappeared in the sword net, making it difficult to pinpoint her true location.
As the only melee magical girl in the Osmanthus Judgment Squad, and with a magical artifact that is a longsword, how could she not pay attention to this pale green figure? The moment the opponent wanted to "cut off the back row", magical girl Shizuka began to act.
"hateful!"
Bai Youqing's attack failed, so she had to retreat immediately. Her "Light Wing Slash" was blocked by the layers of sword energy of the opponent's magic moves, losing its initial sharpness and only able to hover on the outside, unable to harm the magical girls Xiaowen and Xiaofei at all.
Moreover, she was able to seize this opportunity because the other side never expected her to suddenly rush out of the copper-restricted space. But now that she has been stopped, the other Osmanthus Magical Girls will naturally pay attention to her immediately and become the target of everyone's attention.
However, she did not immediately return to the Kikyo Judgment Squad, but instead remained outside the battlefield, keeping the magical girl Shizuka in check.
She had a premonition that if she dared to leave now, the magical girl Shizuka opposite her would take the opportunity to ambush her teammates. Or rather, Shizuka's original mission was to eliminate the key members of the Kikyo Judgment Squad after they were banned.
On the other side, while Kikyo's Judgment Squad was struggling, they suddenly discovered that the control effects and attack power of Magical Girl Aya and Xiaofei had decreased.
Xia Qing and Han Xue exchanged a glance. Without needing to say a word, they understood each other's thoughts. Just as they were preparing to adjust their strategy and seize the opportunity to launch a counterattack...
Xiao Wu, who had been standing at the back of the Osmanthus Judgment Team, suddenly stepped forward at this moment.
She gently closed her eyes, a soft smile appearing on her cheeks. Her lips parted slightly, and a light and melodious tune flowed from them.
Although it sounds nice, it's a waste to pull this stunt during a combat match.
Xia Qing and the others didn't believe that the Osmanthus Trial Team was being kind and playing some songs for them because they were tired of fighting.
Basically, the moment the magical girl Xiaowu appeared, Xia Qing and the others became extremely wary. During their earlier one-on-one fight, the seemingly harmless magical girl Xiaowu had actually pulled off a major attack on Xia Qing and Han Xue at the very end.
Without a doubt, the existence of magical girl Takeru is a ticking time bomb.
The most obvious thing is that the magical girls Xiaowen and Xiaofei, who were originally a little tired in the sky, seemed to have been injected with new magic power. Their magic attacks, which seemed to have weakened before, returned to normal in a short time, and were even stronger than before.
On the competition field, Xia Qing forcibly endured the nauseating feeling of seeing the distorted scene in front of her and launched the first attack. The magic device in her hand was surrounded by flames and quickly condensed into a sharp spear, which she hurled at the direction of the magical girl Xiao Wu.
The flaming spear ripped through the sky, leaving a scorching trail, carrying intense heat and destructive power, heading straight for Xiao Wu.
On the other side, Han Xue didn't just wait idly. The Frost Spear in her hand condensed and took shape, radiating a bone-chilling cold.
Whoosh!
Han Xue's speed was no slower than Xia Qing's. Just as she was about to approach Xiao Wu, she suddenly leaped up, and the Frost Spear drew a crescent-shaped arc in the air, slashing towards the magical girl Xiao Wu at an extremely fast speed.
Xia Qing and Han Xue's combined attack, featuring two distinct elements of fire and ice, created a spectacular visual feast.
However, Xiao Wu's performance in the face of such a fierce attack was beyond everyone's expectations.
She remained calm, her gentle smile continuing, her singing uninterrupted. The members of the Osmanthus Trial Team seemed oblivious to her safety, with no one returning to defend her.
Xia Qing and Han Xue seemed to realize something was wrong at that moment, but by then, it was too late, like arrows that had been shot.
"Boom!"
Just as Xia Qing's Flame Spear and Han Xue's Frost Spear were about to reach Magical Girl Xiao Wu, Magical Girl Xiao Wu's singing suddenly stopped. To be precise, Magical Girl Xiao Wu, who had been floating in the air, suddenly disappeared.
The attacks originally aimed at the magical girl Xiaowu intertwined at this moment. With a loud bang, the two forces collided, creating a violent explosion. Flames and frost mingled, releasing dazzling light and a tremendous shockwave.
This completely depleted their already limited magic power, rendering them unable to fight.
In the current competition, Bai Youqing is entangled with the magical girl Xiao Jing, which means that Li Xuanyu may have to deal with three magical girls at the same time.
The latter, however, held the magic staff in his hand, and his delicate face showed no fear. In fact, the magical girl Xiaowu saw a relaxed expression in his eyes.
"?"
Below the competition arena, Violet and Osmanthus magicians stood watching the match. The former's furrows deepened, while the latter's smile grew wider and wider, almost impossible to suppress.
"Violet Mage, are you sure your Kikyo Judgment Squad's team battles have been trained?"
"How can someone not even have learned a single Law of Magic skill?!"
Violet remained silent, but her pale purple eyes lingered on the members of the Osmanthus Judgment Team.
Seeing Violet's expression, the Osmanthus Magician's smile vanished, becoming somewhat stiff.
"Wow, Yuan, you didn't call me over just so you could get me to train the Kikyo Judgment Squad's team combat skills, did you?!"
To the Osmanthus Magician, the Violet's appearance now resembles that of Dai Bian's neighbor, Hu Zheng, who, in the first stage, saw a balloon zombie slowly flying over the plant defense line, landing on the ground, ready to open the door and eat his brain.
"I'm telling you, this is impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible! I would never train a team for battle for a team other than my own! That would be aiding the enemy!"
Violet glanced at the exaggerated reaction of the Osmanthus Magician indifferently.
"Such a big reaction? You want to lose money? I won't let you lose money."
"No way! Everyone else asks for the highest price and then haggles on the spot. Why did you just leave without even negotiating?" The Osmanthus Mage became anxious again when he saw Violet turn her gaze away from the Osmanthus Judgment Team.
"What's the rush? The battle isn't over yet."
"Four against two, and all four of us are basically at full health. Do you think those two can turn the tables?"
The Osmanthus Magician snorted indignantly.
