[Star-shattering Stab]!

Ignoring Defense Equipment Skills, it causes direct damage to the target!

Clearly, this was the special card Wenren Fangyan had prepared specifically.

The reason he had let himself attack several times before using this special card was to prevent Jiang Yuan from realizing it.

It made Jiang Yuan feel that Le Zhengding resorted to this card because he was unable to breach the defense, not because the Demon Clan knew his information and hence used this card.

As the Short Sword in his hand struck Linglong Tower, under the effect of the Skill Card [Star-shattering Stab], Linglong Tower shattered in response.

The defensive power of Linglong Tower was not very high to begin with; it mainly relied on the Skill entries on it for defense.

Now without the defense of Skills, the inherent defense stood no chance against Le Zhengding's attack.

Linglong Tower shattered, golden fragments falling down.

A hint of joy rose in Le Zhengding's heart, and he quickly launched an attack on Jiang Yuan.

However, Jiang Yuan just glanced at him, and the next second, another golden tower phantom appeared, blocking Le Zhengding's attack.

But this golden tower seemed to carry the weight of the earth compared to the previous shiny golden one, lacking that glittering appearance.

"How does he have another golden tower?"

Players from All Clans watching the battle frowned almost at the same moment.

Right after the golden tower was broken, those who had fought against Jiang Yuan before had shown excited expressions.

However, unexpectedly, that golden tower was just the first layer of defense; there was a second golden tower forming the second layer of defense!

According to convention, the second layer's defense is generally stronger than the first one's.

Doesn't this mean that after all their efforts, they haven't even breached Jiang Yuan's weakest layer of defense?

Their mentality was on the verge of exploding!

At this moment, some players in the early stages of Chunhuo also frowned.

After all, based on Jiang Yuan's current Combat Power, he might very well become one of their opponents next.

Although it's unclear whether Jiang Yuan would choose to challenge a higher level?

But there's no harm in challenging upwards; most people would want to try it.

What if he does too, and what if he has even more Defense Equipment?

Then they would have to get prepared ahead of time as well.

In the arena, seeing another golden tower phantom appear before him, Le Zhengding couldn't help but be stunned.

And it was in this moment that Shi Ji, who had hidden almost all Illusion Technique Skills throughout the field, finally made his move and took control of Le Zhengding.

Shi Ji's spiritual power was on par with Jian Qing.

And presently, Jian Qing's spiritual power had already reached the later stages of Chunhuo.

Thus, Shi Ji naturally did too.

However, the Illusion Techniques released by Shi Ji were even stronger.

The main reason lay in Shi Ji's two Skills: [Stubborn Stone Will] and [Illusion Dream].

One could enhance the strength of spiritual type Skills, and the other could amplify the power of Illusion Techniques.

When combined, Le Zhengding, of the same level, couldn't withstand them at all, immediately falling into the Illusion Realm.

"Indeed, there is another layer of defense."

Wenren Fangyan's face darkened, especially when he saw Shi Ji use Illusion Techniques to pull Le Zhengding into an Illusion Realm, he was even more shocked.

Just a Card Spirit, and yet so powerful!

Shi Ji had become much stronger than the last time Wenren Fangyan saw him!

Could it be that he's almost invincible at his level without the help of any other Card Spirits?

Last time they met, Shi Ji was just a Support Card Spirit!

It wasn't only Wenren Fangyan and the Demon Clan's lead teacher who were frowning, but some players from other Clans did the same.

It felt as if Shi Ji still hadn't used his full strength yet?

Although they had felt Shi Ji had already exerted his all just a while ago, now it seemed they might have been wrong.

This led them to believe that Shi Ji still wasn't showing his full Combat Power, still hiding his strength.

But not having used his full strength, he already seemed invincible at his level.

Then if he were to use his full strength...

"Of course he would be invincible at that level!"

Gudusidan looked at Shi Ji on the screen, his face enraptured: "This is my future wife; how could she not be strong!"

Gudusidan rolled her eyes, not really wanting to bother with this love-struck fool.

Wondering if there was a way within their Clan, or among All Clans, to cure such a lovesick mind.

This guy is really hopeless!

Gudusidan shook his head and continued to watch the battle above.

After being controlled by the Illusion Technique, that guy from the Demon Race clearly couldn't hold on much longer.

His Defense Equipment had been shattered, and what was defending him now should be the Defense Equipment on his body.

Just like the Linglong Tower and the Purple Ribbon Robe.

This guy from the Demon Race also had a dual-layer defense.

"However, is the duration of the Illusion Technique supposed to last this long?"

"Why hasn't he woken up from it after such a long time?"

"Could it be because it didn't hit his body, so it doesn't hurt?"

"Is it possible that her Illusion Technique Skills are too strong?"

"This guy really didn't use his full strength!"

Nearly half a minute of control time, even for the Demon Race, which doesn't have particularly strong Spiritual Ability, this duration of control is too terrifying.

Is this guy's mental strength so high?

But it makes sense, after all, he's a Summoner. If his mental strength weren't high, he wouldn't be able to control so many Summonings.

Soon, all of Le Zhengding's Defense Equipment had been destroyed.

Twenty-odd seconds later, Le Zhengding successfully woke up from the Illusion Realm.

After using a Skill Card to block Shi Ji's attack, Le Zhengding also felt his speed had greatly reduced.

But before he could think further, Shi Ji's attack arrived once again.

With a firm grip of her tiny hand, Ghostly Light Burst forth, taking away Le Zhengding, whose Defense had already been reduced to very little.

In the end, Jiang Yuan once again achieved victory in the battle.

He was also the fastest to secure victory, no one else came close!

When Jiang Yuan returned to the Giant Stone Plain, other battles were also underway.

Including the battle of Mu Qianshan.

However, this battle seemed to be much easier for Mu Qianshan.

After all, his opponent was from the loser's bracket.

But although the opponent from the loser's bracket was somewhat weaker, Mu Qianshan still had not ended the battle.

Jiang Yuan watched for a while, and the Golden Crow also exerted its full strength.

A Golden Crow Beam, as thick as a water bucket, pierced through the opponent, and Mu Qianshan also successfully obtained the victory.

"An S-level Red Quality Skill Card, let's see if you can use it."

As soon as Mu Qianshan returned to the Giant Stone Plain, he immediately lay down on the grass.

But he didn't forget to check his spoils of war.

Seeing that the world's will rewarded a Red Quality S-level Skill Card, he directly handed it to Jiang Yuan.

"Nope."

Jiang Yuan shook his head, somewhat helplessly smiled: "This card perfectly avoids all the cards whose quality I need to improve."

"Alright then, no other way, you'll just have to hope I win another round later."

"Winning another round is fine, we'll meet in the finals after another victory."

"I'll try my best!"

"I just hope I don't run into you in the next match."

Mu Qianshan was serious. The upcoming matches were to determine who would advance to the final four.

Jiang Yuan, the just victorious Mu Qianshan, and the winners from the battles between the Giant Troll Clan and the Demon Clan.

Plus one more contestant, a total of four people, from four to two!

Among these four, two were from the Human Clan, so the chances of them encountering each other were quite high.

If they wanted to reach the final round, then they must not meet in the semi-finals.

"Let's just wait and see."

Mu Qianshan watched the two ongoing battles on the screen.

The winners of these two battles would be their next opponents.

Soon enough, the victors were decided.

One player from the Demon Clan, and one from the Mechanical Clan.

After a five-minute rest period, the semi-finals also began.

After mutually exchanging a glance, Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan entered the battlefield at the same time.

Subconsciously, both of them looked up at their opponents.
