The two elements worked in tandem, the ice freezing Xie Xie while the flame scorched him—a terrifying combination. Had he not quickly reacted by using his Light Dragon Storm to mitigate the majority of the blast, he would have ended up in a far worse condition.
Just as he celebrated his survival, an ice wheel slammed into his back out of nowhere. Disbelief spread across his face as his body went rigid and toppled over.
Tang Wulin’s Bluesilver Grass trap untangled itself as he released one hand from Gu Yue’s neck while supporting her with the other on her waist, thus restoring her mobility.
Their bodies were so close that Gu Yue could enjoy Tang Wulin’s clean and crisp scent. She could have easily escaped his trap by teleporting, continuing the battle and eventually winning through guerilla tactics. She chose instead to let him grab her, as only in close combat could she have a chance of defeating him in one strike.
The result, however, went against her expectations. She had lost. She and Xie Xie had both lost.
The battle might have looked like Tang Wulin was fighting alone against the two of them from start to finish, but, as observers, Wu Zhangkong and Long Hengxu had clearly seen Xu Xiaoyan’s two decisive moves. Her actions had been made at the exact moments needed to turn the tide of battle.
This girl’s perception and control are pretty good. She supported Tang Wulin excellently. Even compared to her peers, she is excellent!
Upon arriving at this conclusion, Wu Zhangkong met eyes with Long Hengxu and the two exchanged nods of tacit understanding.
Long Hengxu approved of Tang Wulin, while Wu Zhangkong was beginning to approve of Xu Xiaoyan.
“You took many risks,” Tang Wulin said as he released Gu Yue.
She snorted. “I was just afraid I would hurt you. otherwise, I would have used even more elements that you can’t defend against.”
Tang Wulin came to a startling realization. That’s right! Gu Yue can control many more elements; water, fire, earth, wind, light and even space. Each and every one of them is powerful. Ice is an extension of water, but it’s not necessarily her strongest ability. With her control, she could have attacked me with three elements at once!
I went easy with my Golden Dragon Claw, but wasn’t she going easy on me too?
An awkward smile tugged at his lips. “You’re still the most amazing.”
Gu Yue laughed. “You’re amazing too! You would’ve injured me if I didn’t restrain you in time.”
“Ow, ow! I know you guys are busy admiring each other, but can you spare some time to help your good friend off the floor?” Xie Xie’s painful groans interrupted their exchange. He painstakingly crawled back to his feet with an irritated expression.
Only Xu Xiaoyan was nice enough to walk over and help him up.
Xie Xie looked at her and rolled his eyes. “Is slicing me up that fun?”
Xu Xiaoyan giggled and revealed a harmless, toothy smile.
The other two students walked over. Tang Wulin extended a hand to Xu Xiaoyan. “Welcome to class zero.”
