Translator: 549690339

Li Zhen continued to announce from the side: “In this contest, the spell recipients are allowed to use any protective skills, and the three spellcasters can also apply different buff techniques to strengthen their teammates.”

“Is the rule clear?”

“Agreed!”

“I also agree!”

“Let’s start!”

Qin Zheng, Zhu Chengyu, and Terence stood in the front.

Zheng Cheng, Lin Feng and Joseph followed right behind them.

Li Zhen took out three pieces of paper, numbered 1, 2, 3 respectively, and held them in his hand.

“The order of spell casting will be determined by drawing lots, any objections?”

“No!”

“Neither do I!”

“Okay, then let’s draw.”

Li Zhen crumpled the pieces of paper and tossed them into a box, which he vigorously shook and placed it in the center of the six participants.

Impatient, Terence walked over and was the first to reach in and pull out a piece of paper.

“1?”

“Such rotten luck?”

Qin Zheng chuckled, stepped forward second, and also pulled out a strip of paper.

He opened it with glee in his eyes.

“3!”

Li Zhen immediately announced: “Terence’s team will cast spells first, Zhu Chengyu’s team second, and we’re third. Is there any question?”

“No problem.”

“Hurry up!”

“Well, Lin Feng and Zheng Cheng, please apply buff techniques to your teammates now!”

As soon as the words fell, Lin Feng reached out his hand and a green staff appeared in it.

As he mumbled an incantation, a flash of green light instantly flickered on Zhu Chengyu.

He turned a greenish hue and delicate green strings wiggled incessantly around him.

Zhu Chengyu then also shouted, and a flash of golden light flickered on him.

Li Zhen quietly told Zheng Cheng on the side: “Lin Feng’s Professionist rank is a seven-star Green Dragon Summoner, one of the five-color dragon summons.”

“The five-color dragons are the weakest of the pureblood dragons, but they are quite stronger compared to others like sub-dragons, pseudo-dragons and whatnot.”

“The Green Dragon summoner’s skills mainly center around poison and Lin Feng’s skill set is quite formidable.”

“We have investigated his skills before, the first one is called ‘Poison Dragon’, a purely poison-based attack.”

“The second skill is ‘Venomous Nova’, aside from the poison-based attack, it can also weaken the resistance of the target all over their body, inducing intense pain, vomiting blood, and even disability!”

“Then there’s Zhu Chengyu whose main strength lies with his giant dragon, but his individual skillset is formidable as well.”

At this point, Qin Zheng also shouted and a small red dragon-scale suddenly appeared on his forehead, and quickly vanished.

“Zheng Cheng, I have the body of the Divine Dragon which boosts all resistances.”

“Do you have any buff skills? if not then…”

“I do.”

Zheng Cheng nodded, touched the back of his hand and a Bloodlust Staff appeared, and he cast the Adrenaline Excitement Technique.

“Since when did you learn buff techniques? From a skill book?”

Qin Zheng looked puzzled while Li Zhen seemed to catch on.

“After coming out of the secret realm, Jiaojiao helped you to translate a learning diary,couldn’t it be that you have gained insights from it?”

“I remember it seemed to be Berserk War Song, Stoneskin War Song, and Agile War Song…”

Zheng Cheng nodded: “Yes, that diary… picked up a buff technique from it, quite useful.”

“These three skills are indeed useful, but in terms of resistance, it might only be Stoneskin War Song that’s somewhat useful…” Li Zhen doubted : “Which one did you pick up?”

“None of them.”

“Then it is…”

“What the fuck!”

Before Li Zhen could finish, he heard Qin Zheng curse.

“Adrenaline Excitement Technique, what sort of weird skill is this?”

“Immunity to fifty percent pain, enhancement to all attributes and all resistances, this is the fiercest buff technique I’ve ever seen!”

Zheng Cheng modestly replied, “It’s nothing special, I also don’t know why I was able to understand this technique from that diary, maybe there’s something wrong with it.”

He wouldn’t possibly reveal that the transformation of his skills was his greatest secret.

Given how things have turned out, he could only lay all the blame on that sacrificial notebook.

“Adrenaline Excitement Technique…” Li Zhen also puzzled: “Based on its name, it sounds like it’s like a stimulant, right?”

Qin Zheng nodded: “Quite similar, and it lasts for a good ten minutes, though the state of weakness afterwards is quite severe.”

“Ten minutes is enough…”

“Hey!” Joseph shouted towards them: “Are you guys ready now! Let’s start already!”

“Alright! Let’s get started!”

Li Zhen immediately announced, stepped back a few paces, and made way.

Qin Zheng, Terence, and Zhu Chengyu stood facing each other, while Joseph approached them with a sinister look on his face.

“I just want to clarify ahead of time, my spell is called ‘Dark Praise’. It can plunge the target into confusion and disorderly attacks in a very short time. Be careful!”

That being said, he raised his hand and a dark staff immediately appeared in it

He chanted and moments later, he swiftly waved his staff towards the three of them.

Three black shadows were emitted and in an instant, they infused into the bodies of the three men.

Not far away, Li Zhen quietly explained to Zheng Cheng: “Dark Praise, the initial skill of dark warlock. It can release the soul of darkness into the body of the target, attack their mind, causing them to hallucinate, or fall unconscious in a very short time. It’s really tricky!”

Zheng Cheng nodded and watched the three men on the field.

The crowded novice Professionists around them were excitedly discussing.

“Who will win this match?”

“I’m betting on Qin Zheng! He is a dragon vein user after all!”

“That white horse is so strong, he must have a formidable physique…”

“One, two, three… the three of them haven’t reacted yet…”

“Four, five… it’s been five seconds!”

“Damn! There’s an effect!”

“Six, seven…”

“Seven seconds… it’s…”

“Terence!”

Amid the discussions, as soon as the time reached seven seconds, Terence, who had a robust physique, suddenly couldn’t bear it anymore and threw a heavy punch forward.

He began to punch and kick at thin air immediately, too.

In the moment he lost control, a blond, blue-eyed bombshell appeared quickly from the crowd behind him and used magic to wake him from his chaotic state.

Qin Zheng and Zhu Chengyu were almost simultaneous in losing control, also descending into chaos.

Luckily, there were support roles such as priests and sacrificers, who quicky came to their aid and woke them up.

Li Zhen smiled and said, “In the first contest, Terence held on for seven seconds, Qin Zheng eight, and Zhu Chengyu nine. The winner is Zhu Chengyu! Any objections?”

Joseph’s face looked terrible. He muttered under his breath, “Waste!”

Terence’s face also turned pale, then red in alternation. He gritted his teeth and said, “Continue!”

“I can’t believe both of you and your debuff skills could ever affect me!”

Zheng Cheng suddenly lowered his voice and said, “Li Zhen, did you plan this in advance?”

“Of course.”

Li Zhen smiled and said, “I’m very familiar with Terence and Joseph’s data. Joseph’s Darkness Praise can affect the target’s spirit, cause hallucinations, and induce malicious, uncoordinated fighting within the target.”

“Terence emerged from the dark forces and was naturally violent and bloodthirsty. His body was strong but his spirit was weak. It was only a matter of time before he was affected by Darkness Praise.”

“As for Zhu Chengyu, he was a soldier and must have received training to resist hallucinations and hypnosis, so his victory was also in my prediction!”

Zheng Cheng’s eyes flashed, he asked, “And my techniques…..”

“Heh heh heh…” Li Zhen mischievously smiled, then took something out of his spatial ring.

Green cover, black pills.

“Damn, it’s Enteritis Ning! You little conniver!”

One of the packs had already been opened, obviously eaten by Qin Zheng.

Li Zhen immediately put away the Enteritis Ning and said, “Your Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique must have upgraded after such a long time. The effect of Enteritis Ning might be greatly reduced, but it’s better than nothing.”

“I don’t believe in Terence’s ability to resist!”

“Impressive! Your method is really impressive!”

The second showdown started quickly. This time, the caster was Lin Feng!

Lin Feng held a jade green staff in his hand, and after chanting his spell, three dark green glows turned into three little snakes, quickly slithering onto the three competitors.

“My technique is called ‘Emerald Serpents’. It is highly toxic. If you two can’t endure, you better find someone to treat you in time.”

Lin Feng said, smiling slyly, “If the venom enters the body, the conventional detoxification technique won’t cure it!”

“Hmph!”

Terence sneered, “Emerald Serpents? I have a robust constitution and there’s absolutely no way that I’ll get knocked down by poison!”

The people around were also looking excitedly at the three of them, chattering away.

“Poison attack, eh? I wonder who will succumb first?”

“Must be Terence! How can he possibly resist such a strong poison?”

“However, Qin Zheng and Zhu Chengyu, both of them having ‘dragon’ in their professional titles, dragons, after all, are naturally very resistant to poison!”

“I also think so…..”

“Five seconds have passed, and there’s no reaction yet…..”

“Six…seven….”

“Eleven seconds have passed!”

“Damn it!”

“All three of them are okay!”

Hearing the people’s discussions around him, Lin Feng’s face turned extremely awful.

Joseph’s debuff skills took effect in seven seconds.

But his ‘Emerald Serpents’ took eleven seconds. How come…..

“Uh…..”

Finally, at the twelfth second, someone started showing symptoms.

Zhu Chengyu…..

Lin Feng watched helplessly as his sweating and shaking captain clutched his stomach. He was absolutely distraught.

Damn it.

How come the enemy didn’t get affected, but his own boss did?

“Quick, detoxify him…..”

Lin Feng hastily started detoxifying Zhu Chengyu, who stood up quickly but looked terrible.

Twelve seconds…..

Could he have only lasted for twelve seconds? What about Qin Zheng and Terence.

“Fifteen!”

“Sixteen!”

“Seventeen!”

The onlookers, who thought the more disorder, the better, were shouting out the time loudly.

“Eighteen!”

It wasn’t until eighteen seconds that Qin Zheng also couldn’t hang on any longer. His face was pale and his forehead was covered in sweat.

Li Zhen nervously asked, “Qin Zheng, can you hang on? If you can’t…..”

Qin Zheng clenched his teeth and said, “Don’t worry, I can still…..”

“If you can’t, just give up.” said Zheng Cheng, “I’m still here.”

“No!”

Qin Zheng replied angrily, “I can take losing to Zhu Chengyu, but I absolutely can’t lose to the white horse!”

“You…..”

“Nineteen!”

“Twenty!”

It wasn’t until twenty seconds had passed that Terence’s face started to change, too.

He was sweating profusely, his lips were pale, but he was still staring fiercely at Qin Zheng, teeth gritted and persisting with all his might.

“Can’t hang on, can you? Quickly admit defeat!”

Qin Zheng sneered while gritting his teeth and said, “You’re the one who can’t resist it, right? Otherwise, why would you be the first to speak?”

“How it could be possible…..uh…..”

Qin Zheng’s face was even paler, his right hand hidden behind his back was clenched so tightly that his veins were bulging out.

Li Zhen’s face changed instantly. He was about to shout, but Zheng Cheng held him back.

He shook his head solemnly and said, “Don’t shout!”

“With the Adrenaline Excitement Technique, he can hold on!”

“This…..”

However, it was Terence on the other side who couldn’t hold on any longer. Covering his stomach, he fell down.

Li Zhen immediately declared, “The winner of the second contest is Qin Zheng!”
