Chapter 473: 473 Chapter Inexplicable Madness

“`

“Thump! Thump! Thump!…”

The thunderous beating of war drums echoed between heaven and earth, fierce winds rustled through the leaves, and an air of sternness made the creatures still in the primitive jungle burrow into their nests, daring not to move.

The two mage teams counteracted each other back and forth, and so far, neither side had succeeded in casting a legendary spell.

Even though the Star Spirit Mages had an overall advantage, the casting of legendary spells was too cumbersome and time-consuming, and the other side also had quite a few legendary-rank mages, making it basically impossible for them to successfully cast.

Therefore, until now, as the ground forces of both sides were about to make contact, neither had managed to unleash a powerful legendary spell against the opponent, although several strong defensive spells had been successfully cast.

This situation continued until the close combat troops were about to clash, and the mages stopped pursuing the super-powerful legendary spells in favor of summoning medium and small-scale spells such as Rain of Fire and Lightning, making it impossible to counter the opponent.

In an instant, fire rain, blizzard, and lightning descended from the sky, covering the vanguards of both sides, and the intense blizzard almost submerged the front ranks.

It was nearly visible to the naked eye that the vanguards of Cao Yichen and Feng Ziqi were affected by various spells, their speed becoming slow, and from time to time warriors fell down. Even the front ranks of the mammoth people, with their thick skins and heavy steel armors, could not withstand the dense spell coverage.

No matter how hard the armor or how thick the flesh, ice, fire, lightning, shadow—there was always something to counter them.

In contrast, the Asura Nagas, with their complete Dragon bloodlines, blocked all these spells and emerged from the spell storm completely unscathed, as if they had taken a bath.

“Hiss!”

Inside a large Void Ship, a dozen seniors from the Radiance watched the scene on the light screen on the wall, all simultaneously gasping in shock at the sight of the Asura Nagas emerging from the fiery blizzard unharmed.

“How powerful!”

Suddenly, a colossal object outside the plane broke through the Void Storm and appeared outside the Plane Crystal Wall.

At the same time, on the other side of the plane, a shadow flew out of the Void Storm and directly plunged into the Plane Crystal Wall, quickly merging into it.

“Primordial and War, truly the breeding ground for conspiracy and chaos!”

Not far away, a Void Ship was stationed, and a Demigod seemed to notice something and glanced here. However, seeing nothing, he didn’t dwell on it. At this moment, this plane was attracting many gazes, and who knows how many people were rushing over. Perhaps it was a senior who quietly came over, so he turned his gaze back.

The giant object was a super Floating City, as large as a small asteroid. Several Void Ships outside the Plane Crystal Wall swerved aside, allowing this behemoth to approach the Plane Crystal Wall slowly. Several gigantic transparent palms extended from the behemoth and pushed into the Void to anchor itself.

In the most central hall of this behemoth, the floor was made of transparent crystals, with streams of light flowing inside. The light refracted through the crystals, casting a kaleidoscope of colors, unbelievably beautiful.

Around the circular table in the hall sat five young men and women, all of extraordinary demeanor and presence. Right now, they were all looking at the scene within the central crystal ball of the table.

One of them, a handsome man with a head of silver hair, propped his chin with his hands, his eyes slightly narrowed as he gazed at the Asura Nagas emerging unscathed from the spell storm, a trace of sharpness shining in his eyes.

He looked up after a moment at the other four, who were intently watching the crystal ball and said in a voice full of unique magnetism:

“This is one of the four candidates that the club is observing this semester. The performances of the other three candidates have already been observed, and they all had very excellent displays in this grand lesson. This junior named Lin Xiao is the last one. Please observe carefully, and later vote on whether to accept him into the club.”

“By the way, the observers from the four top clubs, Meteor, Butterfly, Bloodfang, and Silver Moon, are all here, and they seem to be very interested in this junior. So, there isn’t much time for observation. Please decide whether to accept or give up Lin Xiao before he leaves this plane,” he added.

The same scene was being played out in different places. Although not present on the plane, several top clubs were observing this battle.

Challenging both sophomores and juniors at the same time during the freshman stage was very attractive in itself and also a manifestation of Lin Xiao’s powerful personal strength. From this alone, it was clear that his strength was formidable enough to meet even the top clubs’ recruitment standards.

In fact, just the tip of the iceberg that the Asura Naga clan had revealed since their appearance had already caught the discerning eyes of the seniors, and many were already quite optimistic about him.

If it weren’t for the fact that he was currently battling an opponent and it wasn’t suitable to make contact, it’s likely that clubs would have tried to reach out to him already.

“Boom!”

A Supreme Naga chopped down a tree blocking the path, only to see a robust mammoth warrior also felling the last tree behind it. Its huge eyes reddened slightly, and nostrils blew out thick white breaths as it bent down and charged fiercely.

The Supreme Naga, of course, would not show weakness. Since ascending to the Legendary Race, their strength had never been overpowered.

Both sides, taking heavy steps that turned the ground into flying mud and rotten grass, quickly merged at a fast pace and collided heavily:

“Bang!”

The air twisted upon impact between them, erupting into a shockwave that rolled the nearby withered leaves outward.

The tremendous force of their clash caused the air itself to distort.

And such encounters were being played out between every Naga and mammoth warrior, and from a high vantage point, the first point of contact started a series of air distortions that swiftly spread along the contact lines to the left and right.

“`

The standoff lasted barely two seconds before the Mammoth People’s nearly one-inch-thick skin began to turn red as if beads of blood were oozing out. Their muscles, already swollen, quivered again, and they let out a loud roar.

“Bang!”

Their thick legs suddenly sunk deep into the ground, more than a dozen centimeters. Involuntarily sliding backward, the Supreme Naga’s gold-scaled dragon tail viciously smacked the ground, carving out a deep trench. It lifted its sturdy thighs and stepped forward, enduring the pressure from the Mammoth elephant men to push back more than two meters.

“Hah!”

All the Supreme Naga shouted in unison as their enormous claws sunk several centimeters into the thick steel armor, pressing hard enough to deform and dent the heavy plate inwards. In the disbelieving gaze of the Mammoth elephant men, the Naga wrapped their arms around them and hoisted them off the ground.

This was an absolute overpowering display of strength, achievable only by those who surpassed their opponents in both strength and physique.

In terms of strength, among the billions of races in the Chaotic Void Sea, only Giants, Behemoths, and a few other superior races could stand shoulder to shoulder with Dragons, and even the immensely strong Mammoth species could not match them. Moreover, the Asura Naga had not only fully inherited the Dragon lineage but also undergone Lin Xiao’s enhancement and optimization, surpassing real Dragons in both physique and strength.

In the first wave of contact, the Mammoth elephant men were directly crushed.

If this had been a small-scale battlefield, the victory would have nearly been decided.

But this was a massive battle with over a million combatants. On such a grand battlefield, this was merely a boost to morale in a small area and not a determinant of victory.

Up in the air, Feng Ziqi saw everything, his facial muscles twitching involuntarily, a trace of shock apparent in his eyes.

As the owner of the Silverback Mammoth People, he knew the true strength of his Core Clan. Having this knowledge made the vision of the gold-crafted Supreme Naga crushing his Core Clan even more terrifying.

He glanced towards Lin Xiao, who seemed unfazed in the distance, and a dangerous thought unconsciously rose in his mind. freёweɓnovel.com

But he immediately dismissed the idea, knowing it would be impossible. Countless eyes, including those of school authorities, were fixed on this place, and they would never allow him to do anything excessive.

“The Elite Ranking is truly well-deserved!”

He murmured to himself, self-deprecatingly adding:

“It seems I, as a senior, am just a stepping stone for his fame. This really irks me!”

Qin Rong was even more surprised than him. Hearing his words, a mysterious dark glint flashed in her eyes, and she whispered softly:

“Boss, this guy is using us to make a name for himself. Shouldn’t we teach him a lesson?”

Feng Ziqi shook his head and said:

“There’s no chance. If I’m not mistaken, his Core Clan must be a Legendary Race, and a new one at that. Do you realize what that means? The school authorities will absolutely not tolerate any excessive actions from us.”

“But I’m really not happy about this.”

Feng Ziqi felt that Qin Rong was acting rather strangely, almost eager. He didn’t think too much of it and simply said tersely:

“Don’t be hasty. We might not act, but someone will. This plane might be important to us, but it’s not essential. Yet, it is crucial for Cao Yichen, and they have a feud. Maybe he will do something. Let’s just sit back and watch the drama unfold.”

“Of course, we need to implement some restraint. While we can’t be extreme, teaching him a lesson is still no problem.”

Feng Ziqi waved his hand, issuing an order:

“Call back the main forces. Have the Aboriginal Army and Totem Warriors advance.”

“Since we can’t go to extremes, there’s no need to use the main forces.”

While they were quietly maneuvering troops, Cao Yichen, on the other hand, either didn’t notice or didn’t care. Moving troops on the battlefield was usual, not a retreat.

What Feng Ziqi could think of, he could too, but he wasn’t as constrained. With a grim expression, he said to Li Ran:

“Send a message to Senior Feng’s side, tell them to coordinate an encirclement from the right, and keep an eye on Chu Mo from the Dragon Kingdom Royal City on their side. I will encircle from the left. Leave Lin Xiao to me.”

After pausing for a moment, his voice grew low as he ominously added:

“Soon, I will link with his Divine Realm. You must entangle his main forces at all costs and prevent them from retreating back into the Divine Realm.”

Li Ran was about to agree when he suddenly stopped short, turning back with a face full of surprise and alarm:

“Are you crazy!”

“You want to engage with his Divine Realm in full battle. That’s against the rules, and regardless of the outcome, you’ll face severe punishment from the school, possibly even forced expulsion, and it could impact your Clan.”
