SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 208

Chapter 208: Holy Flame Halo! Like a God!

TL: Rui88

“What! His defense is actually so strong??!”

In the Qingjing University team, the elf girl Xia Lan had a look of astonishment on her face.

She had guessed that Zhou Yi would be able to block her skill.

But she did not expect that the other party would block it without a single scratch.

“This is an A-Rank skill, and I’ve added points to it up to LV8…”

Her expression was incomparably complex.

A Divine Archer was an absolute output position!!

She had once used this skill to shoot through and defeat countless opponents, yet now, she couldn’t even break through Zhou Yi’s defense.

“Is this the strength that Little Ran said, that I could only hope to catch up to with all my might…”

Xia Lan muttered in a low voice.

Yesterday, she still felt that her best friend was exaggerating Zhou Yi’s strength a bit too much.

Now that she was on the stage, she realized that it seemed to be true…

“Hmph! A Saint Knight acting as an output, his defense is the only thing worth being proud of!”

“When Lu Zhou’s spell casting is complete, let’s see how you’ll block it!”

Li Yuan snorted coldly. As a melee warrior, he couldn’t make a move yet.

But beside him, a young man in a mage robe had his eyes slightly closed and was already chanting.

And on the magic core at the top of his right staff, a scorching and terrifying magical energy, like a small sun, was brewing and taking shape!

When Zhou Yi advanced to within 80 meters of the Qingjing University team, the young man suddenly opened his eyes:

“Extreme Fire Phoenix!!”

He raised his staff high, accompanied by a scorching aura.

In the sky above his head, countless crimson fire elements gathered, forming a fire phoenix that was six or seven meters long and five or six meters wide!!

The moment this phoenix appeared, the temperature on the entire arena immediately rose by more than ten degrees!

“Chirp—”

The fire phoenix let out an extremely high-pitched cry, and then attacked Zhou Yi!

“As expected of a contestant from the top-tier Qingjing University, this Extreme Fire Phoenix is an A+ Rank skill!”

“Released by a high-level Mage, it can easily burn a city into a sea of fire!”

“Although this Mage from Qingjing University is still at a low level, his mastery of the Extreme Fire Phoenix skill is very good. The high temperature formed by the fire phoenix has distorted the surrounding air!”

“Such a skill, it’s impossible to take it head-on. How will contestant Zhou Yi choose to deal with it?”

Wang Kun’s words echoed throughout the stadium.

As a Divine Archer, Xia Lan’s arrows were mainly biased towards physical damage.

The final explosion of magical energy from the arrows was just the icing on the cake; the damage was not high.

But this Extreme Fire Phoenix was different. This was cast by a Mage.

And it was also an A+ Rank skill!

If he was hit head-on, he would probably be burned to serious injury in an instant!!

“With a tank, at least they can help take some damage. Zhou Yi charging out alone is indeed too arrogant.”

“Indeed, he is too arrogant.”

“A typical A-Rank magic skill comes with a lock-on function. This A+ Rank Extreme Fire Phoenix definitely has a lock-on as well! Zhou Yi can’t escape at all!”

“Right now, he can only rely on his speed to quickly retreat to his team behind him and fight back with the entire team.”

Under the gaze of more than a hundred thousand spectators on site and hundreds of millions of spectators online, charging out alone and then returning to the team in a dejected manner was undoubtedly very embarrassing.

But at this point, being embarrassed was better than being directly eliminated.

This was the thought of most spectators.

However, just at this moment, the holographic projection in mid-air suddenly lit up.

Even the other 12 small screens were covered by the bright light, making it impossible to see the picture clearly.

“What happened?”

Everyone quickly looked down.

Then, they saw a shocking scene.

On the arena below, Zhou Yi, who was in the middle of a charge, finally stopped.

And behind him, a huge halo slowly condensed and appeared!

This halo was magnificent and carried an incomparable holy aura!

Looking closely, this halo was actually formed by countless golden-white flames!!

Faintly, one could even hear a murmuring prayer-like sound.

This murmuring prayer was not a real sound; it appeared directly in the heart of every spectator!!

Every spectator who saw this vast halo and heard this prayer felt as if their soul had been cleansed!

“What is this skill? I seem to have heard the prayers of all living beings!”

“I felt the aura of a god from it!”

“Is this a Saint Knight’s skill? It’s too scary…”

“…”

One had to know—

Although there were real gods on Blue Star, in the hearts of the people of Zhongxia Country, which had a long history, their faith in gods was extremely weak.

However, the magical scene that appeared at this moment shocked all the spectators!!

“God! It’s the aura of a god!!”

Some foreigners from overseas even took out their crosses on the spot and started their prayers.

In the official livestream room of the National University Freshman Exchange Competition, a crazy spam of comments began:

“What a cool skill!”

“With this one skill, Zhou Yi feels like a legendary god!”

“Too strong! He can simply be called God Yi!”

“…”

Powerful, holy, at this moment, Zhou Yi was simply like a god!

…

…

“Back then, the Eighth Regiment of the Snow Dragon Legion from Suhang Province sent news that this Zhou Yi had once used Divine Descent. I didn’t believe it. Now it seems, it should be true.”

Somewhere in the spectator stands, five or six people with powerful auras were gathered together.

They were all uniformly dressed in the same uniform. On the right chest of the uniform, there was an Eastern Dragon formed by ice and snow!

These few people were professionals from the Snow Dragon Legion’s headquarters!

They came to the National University Exchange Competition this time precisely to pick some good seedlings and make contact in advance.

And Zhou Yi, whom they had learned about from the Eighth Snow Dragon Regiment earlier, was the object of their key attention.

Of course…

Besides the Snow Dragon Legion, in the entire spectator stands, there were also many large legions and guilds that had also come here.

Among them, the Skyfeather Society was also included.

“Is this the student that the Old Guild Leader took in some time ago?”

Unlike the Snow Dragon Legion, the more relaxed Skyfeather Society did not have a uniform dress code.

At this moment, one of the young women in the Skyfeather Society was looking thoughtfully at Zhou Yi’s figure on the arena.

…

…

“Could this be…?”

Looking at the huge halo that appeared behind Zhou Yi on the arena, Wang Kun on the commentary stage showed a look of disbelief.

A Divine Gift Skill!!

It was actually a Divine Gift Skill!!

In the Freshman Exchange Competition, I actually saw a Divine Gift Skill!

He shouted silently in his heart!!

A Divine Gift Skill was a rare skill that only professionals who had truly come into contact with a god could possibly possess!

It could not be learned through a skill book!

It could not be passed down through any kind of inheritance method!!

“Calm down, calm down, what if it’s just a similar form, and this isn’t the skill I’m thinking of…”

As a gold medal commentator, Wang Kun quickly calmed down.

After all, he had only seen that Divine Gift Skill once before!

“Chirp—”

Just as everyone in the stadium was having their own thoughts, the Extreme Fire Phoenix released by the level 19 Mage Lu Zhou also approached within 10 meters of Zhou Yi!

“He’s still not running, he’s dead this time!”

In the Qingjing University team, Lu Zhou couldn’t help but laugh out loud!

Although the Extreme Fire Phoenix was extremely powerful, compared to Fireball, its flight speed was too slow.

Even with a lock-on function, it was extremely easy for the enemy to use the terrain to dodge.

However, Zhou Yi did not choose to run, but instead let the Extreme Fire Phoenix approach to within 10 meters!

10 meters was the must-hit range of the Extreme Fire Phoenix!

Now, Zhou Yi couldn’t run even if he wanted to!

“Captain, I’ll take down Zhou Yi of Suhang University~~”

Lu Zhou said triumphantly as he turned to Li Yuan.

However, instead of the praise he had imagined, he was met with Li Yuan’s strange gaze:

“Lu Zhou, your Extreme Fire Phoenix should explode directly after approaching the target, and then the high-temperature flames will directly engulf the enemy, right?”

“That’s right? What’s wrong? With such high temperatures, even if Zhou Yi’s defense is strong, he can’t…”

Lu Zhou subconsciously turned his head, and after seeing the scene in front of him, his voice suddenly stopped.

Eighty meters away, Zhou Yi stood there like a god.

And in front of him, the Extreme Fire Phoenix not only did not explode, but the dense fire elements that made up the Extreme Fire Phoenix were continuously converging towards the huge halo behind him!!

“This… How is this possible?!!”

At this moment, Lu Zhou felt that his worldview had somewhat collapsed…
