Divine Seal: God Descends, Holy Priest Riding a Black Dragon

Chapter 6 The Cunning Moon Tae

On the second floor of the council hall, the leaders of the Holy Temple Alliance were scrutinizing the new recruits of this year's Demon Hunter Corps, and each of them was increasingly satisfied with their assessment.

Aside from the Assassin's Temple, Shadow Wind, the deputy head of the Assassin's Temple and a member of the Knights' Hall, coldly asked, "Who is that kid? How does he know the Holy Maiden?"

The assassin in black bowed his head and said, "I don't know. According to our investigation, the Holy Maiden doesn't seem to have ever known such a person before."

"Don't you know me? If you don't know me, why are you sitting so close to me?!" Ying Suifeng questioned like a furious black panther.

"Elder Ying, please don't be angry. You know the Holy Maiden's temper and her senses; she has never liked being followed by us," the black-clad assassin said with a wry smile.

Ying Suifeng grew angrier the more she thought about it, and her gaze towards Long Haochen unconsciously carried a hint of murderous intent.

The flirting boy, Xiao Long, was still unaware of what was happening when he suddenly felt a chill run through his body, as if his blood was about to freeze. Intense golden light burst forth from his body, slowly condensing into the shape of a giant sword.

"Huh? Fifth rank!" Ying Suifeng was taken aback.

"Shadow Follows the Wind, what are you doing with your potion?!" The Knight Hall boss on the other end charged over like a lion, golden light enveloping the two of them, blocking outside detection.

The deputy temple master of the Warrior's Temple exclaimed in astonishment, "What's wrong with these two old geezers? They're so old, yet they're still so full of passion."

The old magician beside him stroked his beard and said, "Who knows? Maybe he's just getting old and has had a second spring."

"It seems the Heavenly Shield only blocks actions inside; they can still hear messages from outside," Cardinal Ruoshui said with a faint smile as she walked over.

Ren Wokuang's expression froze for a moment, then he waved his hand dismissively and said, "It's alright, that old bastard Han Qian is at most a draw with me!"

"You think you can hold your own against me?!"

The protective barrier opened, and Han Qian and Ying Suifeng stepped out together...

Wen Tai appeared to be dozing off in his chair with his eyes down, but he was actually secretly talking to Austin. The two, a man and a dragon, were companions and their ages were not much different.

At this moment, a burly old man dressed in light gold attire walked onto the central platform.

The old man was broad-shouldered and burly, with his white hair standing on end like steel needles. Age had not made his body slack at all; his muscles under his tight-fitting clothes were like granite, and his eyes revealed a sense of majesty.

"Everyone has arrived. The group formation ceremony will now begin. All participants will retain their preliminary round numbers. We will now draw lots to determine the groups of ten. After the draw, proceed directly to the training grounds for the first round of competition."

The lottery process was conducted entirely by Ren Wokuang alone, and he quickly divided the contestants into six groups using a method similar to that of the Double Color Ball lottery.

"The first group of the finals...blah blah blah."

"The second group of the finals will be held at the Holy Alliance Grand Trial Grounds Magic Trial Grounds. The roster is as follows: Knight No. 98, Assassin No. 1, Priest No. 18, Mage No. 1, Priest No. 37..."

When Li Xin heard Knight Number 98, she stood up with a mixture of nervousness and excitement. However, to her surprise, in addition to Long Haochen, everyone around her also stood up.

Wen Tai, Cai'er, and Lin Xin all stood up.

Long Haochen was dumbfounded. Are you guys isolating me here?
The second group is a bit too strong!

Wen Tai said with a faint smile, "It seems that we are about to start a civil war at this stage."

Lin Xin laughed and said, "It's alright, Brother Wentai. We'll be more careful now that we've run into you."

"Alright, then thank you for showing mercy, Brother Lin," Wen Tai said slyly.

“I’ll hold back too,” Cai’er suddenly whispered.

"Then thank you, Miss Cai'er!" Wen Tai's face held a strange smile.

The two groups of ten went to the Magician Trial Grounds, where they drew lots to determine the order of the competition. The group matches would last for nine days, with five matches each day.

The final rankings are based on the number of wins.

Wen Tai's opponent today is quite a coincidence; it is Lin Xin.

The referees for the finals were all replaced by internal personnel from the Executive Government, while the referee for the Magician Trial Arena was a highly skilled female magician. "First match, Wen Tai vs. Lin Xin, let's begin the match."

"Since priests are not good at attacking, in the final stage of any match involving a priest, as long as the priest defends for ten minutes without losing, the match is a victory!"

Wen Tai and Lin Xin walked together to the center of the venue.

Lin Xin smiled and said, "Brother Wentai, magic has no eyes. Why don't you just admit defeat? I'm afraid I'll hurt you and affect your later matches."

Wen Tai said calmly, "It's alright, Brother Lin. I still have some confidence in myself."

Lin Xin smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Alright then, Brother Wentai, you'd better be careful."

【Fierce Fist】

Without much formality, Wen Tai immediately unleashed a fourth-tier spell, the crimson flames of wildfire transforming into a powerful, roaring fist that charged towards Lin Xin.

Lin Xin was completely stunned!
Dude, is this art style appropriate? Are you a magician or am I?
Lin Xin dared not underestimate Wen Tai. With a flick of his right hand, the Fire Cloud Crystal Staff appeared in his grasp. Intense fire element surged instantly, the viscous fire element turning the air on the field a pale red.

With a flick of Huo Yunjing's finger, a massive shield of flame appeared out of nowhere, blocking Lin Xin's path.

This is only a second-tier fire shield spell, but with the blessing of the fire cloud crystal, it has the power of a third-tier magic.

Unfortunately, the Fiery Fist was a fourth-tier spell. The violent fire fist instantly shattered the thick fire shield and charged towards Lin Xin.

The other players in Group Two were somewhat confused about the battle.

So...who exactly is the pastor?
[Fire Shield] [Fire Resistance Ring]

Lin Xin brandished the Fire Cloud Crystal Staff and quickly cast two spells.

The fire shield was used to resist the fierce fist. The intense fire ring rushed towards Wen Tai like a snake in the grass. Like the fire shield, the fire ring was also larger than the normal form.

Holy Shield

Light elements gathered in front of Wen Tai, and a Holy Shield of Light, several times larger than an ordinary light shield, perfectly blocked the ring of fire.

Lin Xin felt like he'd swallowed a fly. Who's the pastor here, anyway?!

He himself was a little unsure.

"Radiance!!!"

Wen Tai cast a spell again, and a bright ball of light rushed towards Lin Xin.

Lin Xin didn't take the small light ball spell seriously at all and directly deployed a magical shield to defend against it.

But Lin Xin soon understood what it meant to have defended against it, but not completely!

The Radiance remained outside the shield, but the light it emitted filled the entire arena, the blazing white light causing everyone to cover their eyes.

Lin Xin, who was closest to the light, was completely blinded by the brilliance!

"what!!!!!"

Just by listening to that pitiful sound, you should know how terrifying Guangyao is.

Lin Xin's eyes were burned and swollen by the light, and tears streamed down her face like a burst dam.

"Ten minutes are up, Moon Tae-seung!"

Wen Tai cast a Healing Sprite on Lin Xin and said, "Thank you for your mercy, Brother Lin."
