Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

On the Gobi Desert, the dry wind blows across the pitted stone pillars, playing a mournful and strange melody in the wind-eroded cavities.

Jiang Yue's words, woven into his tone, lingered in everyone's hearts for a long time.

"If Wang Yi hadn't reacted quickly enough to support you, and hadn't had the healing ray and light cage spells, do you know what would have happened?"

Jiang Yue stepped forward, placing one foot on the edge of the pit. He bowed slightly, looking down at the pit with a more serious tone: "The result is that you will be the first to lose your fighting ability, and then we will have to face the attack of the mid-level magical beast, the Fire-Patterned Black-Tailed Leopard."

We'll either become pieces of flesh torn apart by the Fire-Patterned Black-Tailed Leopard, or our teacher or the Candlelight Army will come to our rescue and declare our training over.

Which one would you like to accept?

Which one can you accept?

Jiang Yue's questioning voice was deafening.

Seeing the atmosphere gradually hardening, Qi Xiaohao, standing behind Jiang Yue, quickly stepped in to smooth things over: "Old Jiang, it's not that serious. Old Wang really did go because he had something to do, and he wanted to protect us. Besides, this leopard isn't that difficult to deal with. Look, it ran away in fright, haha, haha..."

Jiang Yue did not accept Qi Xiaohao's idea to ease the atmosphere. Instead, he continued to press, "General Wang, you rushed over on your own to confront the monster head-on. Who will stand in front of us? Is it Wang Yi from the healing class, or me from the attack class?"

"If you enjoy showing off your recklessness so much, why don't you just ride a thousand miles alone instead of forming a squad?"

Jiang Yue seemed genuinely angry, a departure from his usual style, every word he uttered carrying a questioning tone, striking the general's heart heavily.

Chen Zhengkai was introverted and didn't like to talk, and at this moment he shrank his neck and remained silent. Hu Lili was also seeing Jiang Yue so angry for the first time. She opened her mouth to say a few words for Wang Jiang, but she didn't know how to start.

They could only hide behind Qi Xiaohao's broad back, acting like little quails.

Wang Yi devoted most of his energy to vigilantly patrolling the surroundings to prevent any further trouble.

Only Qi Xiaohao kept trying to act as a mediator, putting his arm around Jiang Yue's shoulder and shaking him: "Old Jiang, we're all brothers, say less... Old Wang, what are you standing here for? It's not a good place, hurry up and come up, we need to get some treatment and rest."

After listening to Jiang Yue's accusations in silence for a while, Wang Jiang finally spoke, "I'm sorry, it was my fault."

Jiang Yue sneered, "You don't need to apologize to me, I don't care. But your actions might get the entire team wiped out with you!"

Wang Jiang planted his halberd into the charred rock, raised his head, looked around at the group, and solemnly said, "I'm sorry, everyone. I was too impulsive this time, which put you all in danger."

"Hey, Lao Wang, what are you saying? You're hooking up with all those guys, how can I blame you? Right, Brother E?" Qi Xiaohao shook his head repeatedly, but his words didn't elicit a reply. So, he curiously turned to look at Wang Yi: "Brother E? Brother E? What are you staring at?"

Wang Yi spared some of his energy to answer, "It's not Wang Jiang's fault. He rushed over to prevent the Fire-Patterned Black-Tailed Leopard from getting close to us. Otherwise, if the Fire-Patterned Black-Tailed Leopard had charged at us and done this, we would probably have been wiped out."

Wang Yi pointed to the large crater caused by the explosions in all directions and continued, "Moreover, the purpose of our training is to discover problems, solve problems, improve our strength, and make up for our shortcomings. After all, this is the first time for everyone to enter the interdimensional passage and face magical beasts for the first time. There must be a process of growth."

Of course, for now, I still suggest we find a relatively safe place for the post-battle debriefing meeting. Otherwise, standing here naked in this open field, frankly, I don't feel very safe.

Wang Yi fully understood Wang Jiang's feelings. On the one hand, Wang Jiang probably wanted to keep the monsters away from everyone. After all, everyone could still block or dodge rare-grade magic such as fireballs and earth fire eruptions.

Even if things go wrong, at least they can at least leave behind a complete corpse.

Or a charred corpse.

However, once the divine-grade Four Directions Explosion Flame explodes in the crowd, it's estimated that no one will be left with even a trace of flesh and blood. Bai Yu, who probably doesn't know where the cat is, probably won't have time to save people.

On the other hand, this was also the first time that Wang Jiang had entered the interdimensional passage. He had practiced his halberd for so long, and his growth path was all for the purpose of facing the monsters and engaging in close combat.

Now that there's a suitable opportunity, I naturally want to weigh it carefully.

However, a mid-level magical beast is still a mid-level magical beast. Its physical strength alone is so great that its speed and power are indeed not something that ordinary humans can easily withstand.

"Yes, yes, Brother E is right. It's too dangerous here. Let's run away first." Qi Xiaohao echoed, then bent down and reached out, trying to pull the king out of the pit.

Wang Jiang declined Qi Xiaohao's offer, drew his halberd, and leaped out of the pit in two strides.

However, the movements were a bit too large, and the three scarlet scars on his chest started to bleed again.

Having recovered a significant amount of magic power, Wang Yi once again unleashed a healing ray of light, connecting him and Wang Jiang, and also sending a portion to Qi Xiaohao.

Although the healing beam was powerful, the Fire-Patterned Black-Tailed Panther was enormous, and the wounds inflicted by its claws were no small ones; it could be said that the King was practically disemboweled.

For an ordinary person, this would definitely be considered a fatal injury.

After being afflicted with the healing beam, Wang Jiang had not yet fully recovered from his injuries when he immediately struggled to his feet and unleashed a rock spike attack. Finally, he threw his halberd with all his might, reopening the wounds that had just begun to heal.

To achieve this level of healing with just a single beam of light is already a testament to the king's extraordinary will and physique.

The healing rays continued to rapidly heal the king's injuries, and the color of the scars continued to deepen.

Wang Jiang nodded to Wang Yi as a way of thanking him.

Wang Yi, meanwhile, curiously examined the dark halberd in the general's hand.

It's unclear what material this halberd is made of, but it plunged headfirst into the divine-grade, four-sided burst of flames without sustaining the slightest damage.

Moreover, if its flight trajectory hadn't been altered by the flames of the explosion, the sharp halberd would likely have pierced the Fire-Patterned Black-Tailed Leopard directly, pinning it to the rocky ground, instead of merely severing half of its tail.

This also shows the power of the king's halberd strike.

"Let's go, let's find a quiet place to recover our magic power. I don't want to absorb any more magic crystals, and we can also do a proper post-battle debriefing while we're at it," Wang Yi suggested, patting Jiang Yue's arm.

Jiang Yue nodded in agreement.
