I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Chapter 130: Fanning The Blaze

Due to the intervention of No. 4 High School, there were no hiccups during Lin Yao’s team competition. According to past practices, they competed against the first team from No. 2 High School during the first game. No. 3 High School was luckier, as they competed against one of the dojos.

There were only dozens of people in a dojo, hundreds of people at most, and apart from No. 1 High School, the other high schools did not take the elite route. Each school had thousands of students. These schools would choose the strongest players out of thousands of people, while the dojos could only choose from a smaller number of people. Therefore, the schools had a greater chance of winning. This was why Instructor Tu Hong and the instructor from No. 2 High School looked at No. 3 High School with envy.

Lin Yao ignored the rest, picked up his weapons on the edge of the arena, and stepped on the stage for the team competition.

Due to his handsome appearance, his maverick style, and the Lightning Flash he had used at noon, he was fairly famous by now. The audience cheered upon seeing him, and the two commentators on the commentary stage also paid more attention to Lin Yao.

A martial artist was different from ordinary people. One would definitely have a dry throat after several hours of commentary, and it was necessary to change commentators to continue the commentary.

However, martial artists were different. Even if the commentator was an ordinary martial artist who had yet to advance to become a warlord, they would still be able to talk for three days and three nights without rest.

Right now, the two commentators on the commentary stage were still the same. Ninghai’s famous host, E Longsheng, and his partner saw Lin Yao approaching the arena.

“Student Lin Yao is here. Old E, do you think they will win this time? Can Student Lin Yao still use his brilliant move?”

“I think…”

While answering the question, E Longsheng hesitated slightly. His understanding of the intermediate martial artist made him feel that Lin Yao could no longer use a single blow to defeat the enemy as he had done at noon. After all, the profound meaning was already considered an ultimate strike, and every time he used the profound meaning, he would need to take a break for his body to recover. If he exceeded the limit and went above the profound meaning, this would no longer be the move one used in regular combat but a forbidden move used in desperate times.

It was very common for people who used such a move to rest for half a day or even permanently damage their body’s foundation. Therefore, he did not think that Lin Yao was capable of using such a move again.

However, he did not want to make another mistake, so he was cautious.

“It’s difficult to say. By right, half a day is not enough for Lin Yao to recover, but there are some peculiar recovery items in the world. If Lin Yao uses such items, he might be able to fully recover.”

“Wow, he can use one single move to defeat the opponent within seconds. In that case, four people might end up fighting against five people. No. 2 High School is in danger.”

“That’s too extreme. Even if Lin Yao is in good health, No. 2 High School still has a chance. Lin Yao has revealed his profound meaning, so No. 2 High School will be vigilant. Most importantly, even if he successfully defeats one person and No. 2 High School has one less student, it will be very difficult for Lin Yao to compete. It will still be four against four. Therefore, Lin Yao will most likely maintain a sword-drawing posture to put pressure on the opponent during the team competition rather than take the initiative to attack.”

“He only has one ultimate blow. It would indeed be better to use it as a deterrent so that others will be alert. However, Teacher E, are you so certain that the Lightning Flash cannot be used twice in a row?”

“Of course, after unleashing his power just now, Lin Yao’s physical fitness is akin to that of a warlord. His physique has skyrocketed from an intermediate martial artist physique to a warlord one. How can such a move be used continuously!?”

E Longsheng sounded very certain, and the audience agreed with him. Even so, everyone was still staring at Lin Yao, not for any other reason, but because the Lightning Flash was powerful and cool.

Thunder and lightning struck, and he defeated the enemy with one single flash move. This kind of cool and powerful swordsmanship fascinated countless people.

Amidst the cheers and anticipation of the audience, Lin Yao and the others walked into the arena.

While walking, Lin Yao also thought about the information regarding the martial artists of No. 2 High School.

Yes, he had information on the martial artists from No. 2 High School. One could readily get information on high school students. Their usual training aside, many of the contestants’ combat skills had been known by others due to the individual match this morning. There was no need for Lin Yao to search for the information. Besides, people who were determined to score at this martial arts competition would collect intelligence and distribute it to the contestants.

Therefore, Lin Yao not only had information regarding the martial artists from No. 2 High School, but he also had information on martial artists from other schools.

However, due to the fact that advanced martial artists would usually end the competition quickly by achieving overwhelming victory, there was not enough information on them. Plus, there were four advanced martial artists in the first team from No. 2 High School.

‘As the competition progresses, we will expose more of our skills and techniques. Right now, we have very little information.’

A total of 10 people, consisting of five people from Lin Yao’s team and five people from the opposing team, stood in the middle of the competition arena. There were referees on both sides paying attention to the situation in the middle.

“Salute.”

One had to pay attention to the etiquette before the match. After performing the martial artist etiquette, the five people from Lin Yao’s team stood in a predetermined formation.

Their formation was the simplest 3:2 formation, with Lin Yao, Shi Qiang, and Tu Ying at the front for close combat, and Zhang Feng and Yan Yan attacking from the back from a distance. This formation was not very strategic, and it could not be easily adapted to suit the changing situation. Lin Yao was sure that once the battle began, everyone would fight separately.

Fortunately, the opposing team was also a mess. Judging from their formation, each individual was fighting on their own as well.

“Gather all forces to defeat the intermediate martial artist within seconds.”

After communicating a simple strategy, the five people in Lin Yao’s team stopped talking.

They could not help it. They’d had very little time for group training. Any strategies that were too complex might limit their individual performance.

“Get ready! 3, 2, 1… The battle begins.”

As the coaches on both sides roared, Shi Qiang and Tu Ying, who were on Lin Yao’s team, charged forward in an instant, and the ice swallows that were made of wind and snow, as well as inexplicable blood and aura fluctuations, were released against the opposing team.

On the opposite side, a fireball rose into the sky, accompanied by howling gusts of wind.

The howling winds fanned the blaze, and in an instant, the fireball turned into waves of fire that rushed toward Lin Yao and the others. The boiling fire waves melted Yan Yan’s ice swallows and prevented Zhang Feng and Shi Qiang from advancing.

“Fanning the blaze is a classic tactic. Compared to No. 4 High School, who is fighting separately, the geniuses of No. 2 High School are better.”

The battle continued, and so did the commentary.

The commentator was not wrong. The opposing team did have an advantage because they were cooperating with each other. The scorching fire wave melted Yan Yan’s long-range attack, and Zhang Feng and Shi Qiang instinctively darted to either side.

After they darted to the side, Lin Yao, who was standing on the spot and maintaining the posture of drawing a sword, and Yan Yan, who was behind him, were exposed.

They were indeed a disorderly crowd. Three days of training could at best prevent them from hitting their teammates during a battle.

Fortunately, Lin Yao had not expected to cooperate with them.

The scorching waves of fire might be turbulent, but they were released by a martial artist and hence could not block out everything. From the gaps between the billowing waves of fire, Lin Yao noticed the fighter charging forward along with the fire waves.

Lin Yao took a deep breath, and a flash of lightning appeared in his eyes. He had entered a state of accelerated thinking, enhancing himself with the holy seal and then stimulating his body with thunder and lightning, instantly allowing himself to enter an “extreme” state.

Buzz, buzz.

Thunder and lightning crackled around Lin Yao. This was Lin Yao’s talent after he activated various enhancements. This was the combined effect of Heavenly Thunder LV2 and the thinking speed acceleration (the external release of thunder and lightning).

This so-called “extreme” state had been named by Lin Yao himself so he could distinguish between his normal state and this powerful state after adding various buffs.

After entering this extreme realm, Lin Yao’s whole body flashed with electricity, and the roots of his hair stood up. When he took a breath, a loud bang was heard, as power suddenly erupted from Lin Yao’s feet, causing the ground to crack.

While the ground was shattered, Lin Yao disappeared as well. Everyone could only see a flash of electric light that flickered in the arena.

“What?! You are daring enough to charge forward despite the waves of fire?!”
