Elemental Card King.

Chapter 198 Invincible Belief, Captain Su is in charge of silencing the home crowd.
It's all over.

As Qi Hanhai said in his psychological warfare remarks at the end of the opening match, your Magician deck, the Lord of Secrets, has nothing to hide.

It's the same old story, over and over again.

At the time, the Duke of Orvie spoke casually about things like 'the burden of reputation,' and his nonchalant and carefree demeanor suggested that he didn't care much.

But just half a minute into the match, when only one of the five Stars of Destruction Magicians remained in his original form, his mentality had completely collapsed.

The "magic cylinder," which had been anticipated, failed to demonstrate its effectiveness.

The ability to nullify damage and create a perfect counter-damage effect was successfully applied to Su Chen.

It is worth mentioning that...
The Dragon Warrior form possesses the terrifying characteristic of an 'undying dragon body'. As long as the burst damage doesn't reach the level of 'instant kill', Xiao Ling, who is in a severely injured state, can recover from it and gain resistance.

'What doesn't kill you makes the Dragon Girl stronger.'

This proverb is correct.

at the moment.

When he was at his wit's end, Duke Ovi also activated the secret technique of revealing his hand, 'Demonic Revelation'.

This secret technique can transform an individual's annihilation beam into a terrifying surge of energy, granting unparalleled damage amplification.

“ShiT”

However, when the other party finally couldn't help but curse, this excellent method of attacking Long Wuji completely failed.

Su Chen used the same trick again, using the effect of 'Shadow Shuttle' to teleport away Xiao Ling, who lacked mobility.

"asshole."

At this moment, Duke Ovi really didn't want to play anymore.

The difference in strength between the two is clearly an insurmountable chasm.

Once he realized this, the last bit of strength in his body seemed to be completely drained away.

Soon.

The figure clad in the Demon Scale Robe fell from the sky like a paper kite with a broken string.

"This navigator talent has been hyped up for so long, but in the end he still has to rely on his teammates."

At this moment, the audience realized that the Star of Destruction Magician, without the power of the four elements, was practically crippled and performed terribly. In order to possess this magical power, he would have to consume the sacrifices of his teammates.

finally.

In the instant before Duke Ovi fell to the ground, a sentence inexplicably surfaced in his mind.

'The pull of reality is ultimately too heavy, forcing all soaring dreams to crash to the ground.'

boom!
With a muffled thud, the body crashed to the ground. With the lumbar spine severely bent and deformed, the person's consciousness was completely overwhelmed by the intense pain.

Even those things that fell to the ground and shattered had their own dreams.

"As expected of the Xuanhuang Kingdom, this ancient civilization is truly not lacking in talent."

Amid the cheers, even the president of the Florence Association couldn't help but let his thoughts wander, and he inexplicably felt a sense of emotion towards Su Chen and the country behind him.

"He has the ability to compete for the championship in the individual competition, right?" one player couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Based on my years of experience watching matches, he's definitely a top favorite, but it's hard to say how many monsters there will be this year," the president said.

After all, under the wartime regime, all countries have increased their resource investment, and the generous treatment enjoyed by this year's contestants is unimaginable in previous years.

It's no longer appropriate to use the old standards to measure it.

"gone."

Seeing that the match was over, the gentlemanly president stood up, put on a top hat, and walked away with a cane in his hand.

For him, apart from Su Chen, the other people's matches weren't very interesting.

"Su Chen is really strong."

Regarding this, the Xuanhuang teammates in the VIP box couldn't help but sigh.

It's always fresh and new.

Every now and then, the opponent always manages to surprise people with something special. It's easy to imagine how strong our captain will become in the next three months.

"Ten times the resources, the strength of ten people, that's how it is." Teacher Wu Zhongming couldn't help but laugh. He was already enjoying the prospect of his earliest collection of 'Legendary Card Master's Pen' appreciating in value rapidly.

No, I still need to salvage some collectibles from Future Legend during this period.

"This guy probably has a lot of ulterior motives." Teacher He Yun couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Teacher Wu's silly grin.

"The pressure is immense."

At this moment, after enjoying the captain's perfect solo performance, the teammates felt a surge of pressure from the bottom of their hearts.

After all, they knew very well that Jiang Ran, who suddenly appeared three years ago, also failed to lead his teammates to victory. If history were to repeat itself, how painful would that be?

"What's wrong with everyone?"

After Su Chen returned to the private room, he looked at his many teammates who all seemed preoccupied and felt a little puzzled. He wondered if he had lost.

"I was worried about holding you back," Xia He said with a faint smile, explaining his situation.

"That's good."

The two were whispering to each other in the back.

At least Su Chen hopes that his teammates will become stronger and stronger, and it would be even better if they could step up.

However, he also knew that the third team match against the host country would be very difficult. Playing on someone else's home turf would inevitably put many people at a disadvantage.

at this time.

Su Chen's sleeve was gently tugged, but it was Xiao Ling, who was floating to the side.

"Xiao Ling, don't delay any longer."

The little spirit in its wind spirit doll form held its head high and patted its chest; its little ears had been listening intently the whole time.

"You're the best and most obedient."

Su Chen smiled and ruffled the other's hair: "You did a really good job just now."

When encouraged, the little guy's pretty face lit up with a smile, and he also rubbed his head against his owner's hand quite often.

Xia He, a cat lover, was inexplicably reminded of a cat by this scene.

Childhood memories always unconsciously and profoundly influence Xiaoling, although the little cutie is not that old now.

"Good luck to you later too," Su Chen said, looking at the girl in front of him.

"It's a minor issue," Xia He nodded.

As he said.

The girl easily defeated a summoner in less than a minute.

Their unstoppable dominance extends to tomorrow's two singles matches.

then
The third team competition, which must be taken seriously, is also approaching.

This is the real highlight.

No matter how you look at it, facing the host team Fiorentina is undoubtedly the most difficult match. If they win, they will be guaranteed five wins and will be able to swim out of the group of death without any problems.

This heavy burden also fell somewhat on Su Chen's shoulders.

Day 5 of the competition.

Early in the morning.

After having breakfast at the Orion Hotel restaurant, the Xuanhuang team was on their way to the Azure Arena when a teacher suddenly said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if we lose this game. The opponents in the next two games are easy to handle. We can easily win four games in the end."

This isn't unfounded. Because Alfonso's national team lost to the host nation yesterday, they've now suffered two defeats and are essentially on the verge of elimination.

"It's not certain who will win or lose yet, but we'll fight hard to win."

Cao Zheng didn't bother to refute such discouraging words before the match.

"What's it to you as a substitute?" Tang Nianwei couldn't help but tease.

The clone, whose face fell after being talked back to, was so angry that he couldn't speak. Indeed, this substitute hadn't had a single chance to play yet.

Once he thought about the commotion his next opponent would cause, his face became even more worried, realizing that he would definitely not get a chance to play in this match.

"He's become withdrawn." Cao Zheng sighed.

Generally speaking, the strict Deputy Team Leader Lin would stop such behavior of admitting defeat before the battle even begins, but the leader who set off with him did not have any objection to it.

Yesterday, the Fiorentina national team unleashed a killer move, completely overwhelming dozens of islands of varying sizes in the water area with the commotion they caused.

more than.

The water level rose with extraordinary force, as if countless sluice gates were releasing water simultaneously. The boundary barriers of the site also hindered the outflow. In an instant, the entire water area almost transformed the battlefield into a giant bathtub.

This is too outrageous.

The opposing card player not only had nowhere to land, but even an entire area of ​​airspace was about to be completely swallowed up by the continuously and terrifyingly rising water level.

Hard to beat.

Deputy Team Leader Lin also couldn't imagine how much strength the other teammates, besides Su Chen, could demonstrate in the water. This tough battle was definitely a test for their captain.

"Keep a calm mindset and don't worry too much about winning or losing."

After arriving at the training room at the venue, Deputy Team Leader Lin also gathered his teammates for a talk.

Upon hearing this, the members of the Xuanhuang team had strange expressions, as if their leader had been possessed by Yao Yi.

Perhaps sensing the many eyes turning to him, Yao Yi, with his kind and amiable expression, also gave everyone a smile.

The meticulous old man smiled and said, "If we look at it from the perspective of the result, the outcome of this match is probably insignificant. Losing will not affect advancing to the next round."

"but."

"If everyone's goal is to win the national championship, then naturally we cannot give up easily."

In this regard.

The group of spirited young men and women laughed; this was more like it.

"Trying to drag me down with you? Not so easy."

Pei Xingwei's fists and palms clashed. He had made many preparations to deal with the water area, because deep down, he, the number one person in Jiangnan, did not want to hold anyone back.

"Even when you're a water ghost, you have to drag someone down with you." Qi Hanhai, the Undead Singer, laughed. He didn't want to taste the defeat of the first round again.

Let those painful memories stay with others.

Looking at the confident faces around him, Su Chen felt a sense of fulfillment. At least this enthusiasm and momentum were just right. If they gave up easily because they felt the outcome of the game didn't matter, he would indeed feel uncomfortable.

After all, he has a very strong desire to win, and his undefeated record this year shouldn't end today.

"Alright, let's make our entrance."

at the same time.

The event organizers sent staff to indicate that they could take the stage.

Led by Su Chen, the group walked neatly through the long venue corridor once again. At the end of the light, however, came a series of unusually loud shouts.

"Florence!!"

"Florence!!"

"."

The synchronized cheers revealed their boundless enthusiasm.

The deafening shouts caused the group, who had just been full of excitement, to change their expressions.

Pei Xingwei, the burly man whom Cao Zheng jokingly called having the delicate thoughts of a young girl, suddenly became somewhat unnatural.

"There are way too many people at this home stadium!"

"Holy crap, is all that sound their cheering?"

To be fair, one point that is often overlooked is that the host country's advantages go far beyond just having access to water facilities.

The entire audience was almost entirely composed of local residents.

Because the first two team matches did not involve the preferences and interests of their local audience, they received just as much encouragement. However, when they walked out of the tunnel, they were greeted with boos.

"Shh!"

Once someone starts stirring things up, the boos that were just beginning to emerge immediately become much louder.

This is undoubtedly torture from noise.

"Damn it, we have to silence them later." Cao Zheng was a little annoyed.

Fortunately.

When the commentators introduced the Xuanhuang team, many locals still applauded and cheered out of courtesy.

"It's alright, that's how it is when playing away from home."

Qi Hanhai didn't care. He had watched many professional matches and found that developed cities, both domestically and internationally, all had local teams. When playing away games, the local people usually wouldn't give them a friendly welcome.

of course.

The audience size today is indeed enormous, at least tens of thousands of people. A large group of people are wearing matching support outfits, which suggests they are a large number of supporters of a local professional team who have come to watch the game.

Upon closer examination, this match is indeed the most exciting one in the group of death, not to mention that it also involves the host country.

"They're not targeting us intentionally, they're just putting psychological pressure on us. If you can't even handle this, then you won't be able to hear anything once you're in the competition area anyway." Qi Hanhai patted Pei Xingwei's shoulder with a smile, clearly trying to make him relax.

"Whatever."

Cao Zheng, who always had a straightforward temper, said disdainfully, "It's so noisy, I'll turn this market into a library later."

"Don't forget, you can't play." Tang Nianwei sneered, emphasizing again.

Cao Zheng's face turned red, which was unusual for him, and he looked like he was holding back his anger. Finally, he said with some discomfort, "I wasn't talking about myself. It was Captain Su who messed things up."

In this regard.

Tang Nianwei glanced at the other person with considerable surprise.

Judge Gao Jun also looked at the other party with surprise. In fact, he also noticed that Cao Zheng unconsciously revealed some respect for Su Chen in his words.

At least, Su Chen is no longer addressed by his given name, but rather with respectful titles such as "Captain" or "Team Leader Su".

Is this the same Cao Zheng who was careless in everything he did and looked down on everyone during the national competition, a copycat?

Think of this.

Once Gao Jun put himself in that situation, his heart skipped a beat. After all, wasn't he the same way?

The other party's invincible belief in omnipotence subtly influenced the subconscious of many people around them.

Su Chen is truly a terrifying yet admirable person.

"It will win."

Upon arriving at the substitute zone, Gao Jun's previously wavering belief was suddenly strengthened. He firmly believed that even if a 1v5 situation did occur in the end, those Frenza national team players would be completely swept away.

"Seriously, the substitutes' area is really noisy."

Even the usually refined and elegant Qi Jinglong couldn't help but laugh after adjusting his black-rimmed glasses: "Then I can only hope that Captain Su will quiet things down."
