SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 209

Chapter 209: Holy Light Qin Shield! Holy Storm! Surprise Attack!

TL: Rui88

“It really is! The Divine Gift Skill! Holy Flame Halo!”

On the commentary stage, the gold medal commentator Wang Kun was shocked.

One had to know, a Divine Gift Skill was a skill that many third-transfer professionals could not obtain.

Now it actually appeared on a first-transfer professional, which was simply incredible!

“Hmm? What’s a Divine Gift Skill? Why does the commentator seem so excited?”

In the spectator stands, someone showed a look of confusion.

And some people, as if they had thought of something, their expressions changed slightly.

“A Divine Gift Skill! Zhou Yi actually has a Divine Gift Skill?”

Zhou Heng’s face was ugly.

As an ancient family with a history of several hundred years, he naturally knew what a Divine Gift Skill was.

In fact, the Zhou family, which possessed the Ice Bloodline, were themselves believers of the Goddess of Ice!!

“This Holy Flame Halo was clearly bestowed by the God of Light.”

“It seems Zhou Yi has come into contact with the God of Light before and has also received his blessing…”

Zhou Yang sighed faintly, “Every professional who has been blessed by a god possesses great potential.”

“It seems we’re going to make a trip for nothing this time…”

Hearing this, Zhou Lin and Zhou Dong’er looked at each other.

Although they had also heard of Divine Gift Skills, ever since the Ice Bloodline in the clan was cursed, it seemed that they had never heard of any professional in the clan ever receiving the blessing of the Goddess of Ice…

“No! We still have a chance!”

Zhou Heng gritted his teeth. “After the competition is over, I’ll talk to him again!”

Such a brilliant performance made him even more convinced that the hope for the Zhou family’s resurgence lay with Zhou Yi.

He would never give up easily until the last moment!!

…

…

On the giant arena that was 500 meters long and wide, a flame halo with a diameter of about four meters was extremely bright.

The golden-white flames burning on the halo even made the Qingjing University contestants eighty meters away feel the heat!

And under the backdrop of this holy and scorching halo, Zhou Yi, holding the Blood-Weeping Battle Axe, exuded an endless sense of majesty like a god!

The audience and contestants in the entire stadium were also in a state of extreme shock due to the appearance of this halo.

Of course…

This also included Lu Zhou from Qingjing University.

This level 19 genius Mage, after seeing his Extreme Fire Phoenix, which could easily level a small mountain, being absorbed by a halo, was completely stunned.

“Although I don’t know what skill Zhou Yi released, it’s certain that fire-type magic skills are useless against him!”

As the captain, Li Yuan’s face also showed a hint of shock, but he quickly reacted and shouted in a low voice:

“Lu Zhou, use other elemental skills to attack!”

“Xia Lan, don’t stop the long-range archery attacks! The target is not only Zhou Yi, but also the others from Suhang University!!”

“The rest of you, prepare for battle with me!”

“We must stop him at a distance of 50 meters and must not let him get close to the Priests and Mages!”

Under Li Yuan’s command, the entire team quickly moved.

Lu Zhou’s eyes were slightly closed as he began to chant a spell again.

For him, ordinary magic skills like Fireball could be released almost instantly.

But Zhou Yi not only countered fire-type spells, but his defense was also extremely strong!

Releasing skills of too low a level would not be able to break his defense!

It would only be a waste of mana and time, with no meaning at all!

Therefore, the skill he was chanting at this time was also an A-Rank skill!

But this time he did not choose the fire element, but the wind element!!

Beside him, Xia Lan also gave up on only targeting Zhou Yi.

Her hands turned into phantoms, and one after another, magical energy arrows were continuously shot out!!

Compared to the previous [Suffocating Arrow], even if these arrows hit, they could not cause much damage.

But the advantage was that they could be fired quickly and multiple times at once! She could almost reach the rate of shooting one arrow every 0.03 seconds!

Under such terrifying hand speed, just Xia Lan alone had actually formed a terrifying arrow rain like a dark cloud!

And the target of this arrow rain was precisely Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan’s group in the distance!!

“Single-target attacks don’t work, so you switch to area-of-effect attacks to obstruct my advance?”

“A good idea, but still too naive…”

Zhou Yi shook his head slightly, clenched his left hand into a fist, and swung it upwards!

“Holy Light Qin Shield!!”

With a hum, a Holy Light shield wall about 7 meters high and 5 meters wide, like a huge wall, appeared out of thin air.

In the middle of this Holy Light shield wall, there was a magnificent cross, exuding an incomparably thick holy light aura.

The inheritance skill taught by Teacher Wang Hui, Twin Qin Shield, was perfected on the basis of the Holy Light Qin Shield.

When releasing this skill, one could freely choose to release the Twin Qin Shield or the Holy Light Qin Shield.

And what Zhou Yi was releasing now was the Holy Light Qin Shield!!

Ding ding ding…

A large number of magical energy arrows shot at the Holy Light Qin Shield, making a continuous crisp sound, but it seemed as if they had not caused any damage at all.

The Holy Light Qin Shield continued to push forward slowly and steadily.

“Not bad.”

Zhou Yi nodded with satisfaction.

During his training at school, he rarely used the Holy Light Qin Shield skill.

Today was pretty much his first time using it in actual combat.

And this A+ Rank skill, which he had raised to LV8, also showed an extremely powerful effect of defending against long-range attacks.

“Relying on the Holy Light Qin Shield, I can also chant other skills.”

Although the damage from Divine Archer Xia Lan’s arrows was not high, it greatly hindered his charge.

So, next he needed to interrupt Qingjing University’s attack rhythm!

Zhou Yi gently touched his glabella with his left hand. After the golden cross on his glabella lit up, he slowly pushed his left hand forward:

“Holy Storm!”

The Holy Flame Halo behind him, which had absorbed all the fire elements of the Extreme Fire Phoenix, injected incomparably pure magical energy into Zhou Yi’s body.

And this magical energy was directly used by him to release a skill!

Hum—

In the middle of Qingjing University, a golden storm of holy light suddenly began to condense and appear!

“Not good, retreat quickly!”

Li Yuan’s expression changed drastically, and with a loud shout, all the members immediately scattered!!

Hoo~~ hoo~~~

This storm of holy light rapidly expanded. In the blink of an eye, it became a giant storm over twenty meters high and with a diameter of over ten meters!!

The fierce wind howled, blowing the corners of the clothes and hair of the Qingjing University members around them.

“This…”

The elf girl Xia Lan’s head of black hair floated in the wind. Her pair of light green eyes also carried an incomparable sense of shock.

How could a heavy-armored support Saint Knight release such a terrifying magic attack?

“This Holy Storm, if I get caught in it, I’m afraid I’ll be directly eliminated…”

Lu Zhou, who had been forced to end his skill casting, stood firm in the distance. Looking at this giant storm, he subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

As a Mage, he was very sensitive to elements and magical energy.

According to his senses, within that Holy Storm, there was an incomparably terrifying holy light raging!

Once caught in it, one would probably suffer tons of light attribute magic damage!

“Is this still a Saint Knight? I feel like the skill he released is even more terrifying than the skill I, a pure Mage, released!”

Lu Zhou couldn’t help but click his tongue.

Just at this moment, a loud shout came:

“Lu Zhou! Be careful!”

“Hmm?”

Lu Zhou was about to turn his head when he suddenly felt an incomparably dangerous and terrifying aura descending!!

Without any hesitation, he immediately chose to activate all the shield magic on his magic robe and numerous magic equipment!!

Instantly, he was enveloped by more than ten magic shields of different colors!!

And just at this moment, a battle axe glowing with golden light arrived!

Hwa—

The battle axe was like lightning, its sharp blade drawing a cold arc in the air.

Its target was Lu Zhou’s right arm holding the staff!!

Bang! Bang! Bang! …

With an unparalleled momentum, in an instant, more than ten magic shields were directly shattered by the battle axe!!

The sharp blade still chopped down on Lu Zhou’s right shoulder!!

Compared to light armor and heavy armor, the defense of a mage robe was slightly lower.

But it was after all a piece of armor, so it still had some defense.

And after the axe broke through more than ten layers of magic shields, it had already lost some of its momentum.

So, when this axe chopped down on Lu Zhou’s shoulder, it only went in three or four centimeters before it could no longer go deeper.

But even so, a large amount of blood immediately flowed out from his shoulder, dyeing the magic robe a bright red!!

“Flash!!”

The intense pain also made Lu Zhou react, and he immediately flashed to the side of his captain, Li Yuan.

“Zhou Yi…”

Lu Zhou, standing firm in the distance, looked at the place where he had just stood with a terrified expression.

And there, stood a tall young man with a halo behind him, holding a giant battle axe, and an extremely oppressive presence!!

“What a pity, otherwise that last axe could have directly chopped off your right arm along with the staff.”

In the distance, Zhou Yi shook his head with some regret.

The release of the Holy Storm skill had a certain delay.

This disadvantage was not obvious when farming monsters in dungeons.

After all, the monsters’ reactions were slower, and the monsters in ordinary dungeons were usually in groups of dozens.

Even if they realized it, they couldn’t completely dodge it.

But it was different on the arena.

Every contestant from Qingjing University was a top genius!!

After discovering that something was wrong, they immediately chose to dodge!

With only six people, and on an open arena, dodging was naturally very easy.

Of course…

Zhou Yi had also anticipated this.

His purpose for using Holy Storm was, on the one hand, to interrupt Lu Zhou’s spell casting and Xia Lan’s arrow attacks.

On the other hand, it was to allow himself to advance better!!

And the final effect was also very good. He successfully advanced to the front of the Mage Lu Zhou, who had been left behind because he was dodging the Holy Storm.

But it was a pity that this Lu Zhou had too many defensive magic items, which prevented him from chopping off his opponent’s right arm with one axe!

Losing his right arm, even if there was a Priest in the opponent’s camp, it would be extremely difficult to recover in a short period of time!

It could be said that it would instantly weaken Qingjing University’s combat power!

Unfortunately, it was not successful in the end.

If there were three or four fewer magic shields, Zhou Yi might have succeeded…
