My Talent Panel Can Add Points-Chapter 110 - 102: Efficient Mage Civil War! (Part 2)
This doesn’t even include the usual study questions...
Ouch! My head hurts!
"Hmph, even though you’re not really great, and you’re full of trouble, I still have to thank you for letting me see her at her best, see her true strength." Xiaoguang glanced towards the battlefield, his eyes full of expectation and hope.
....
On the battlefield
Tang Ruobing and Feng Xinglie gazed at each other from afar, terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations rippling between them. They were both Level 8 Hero Mages, top mages from Chenghai High School, possessing quite frightening power.
"Is it worth challenging me ahead of time for that guy?" Feng Xinglie asked with a smile.
If given more time, letting Tang Ruobing experience more of the world, he might find it very tricky, but at the present, he was quite confident he could win.
"That guy? What are you talking about? I challenge you simply because I think I’m stronger than you and that I can defeat you," Tang Ruobing said coldly.
Feng Xinglie glanced at the audience stand from afar, thinking to himself: Why did you bring this guy along? No wonder you would say such things, sigh, I’m impressed.
He feigned anger, squinting his eyes at Tang Ruobing, and said in a deep voice, "Oh? It seems the victory in the team battle has given you some unrealistic fantasies, making you unable to see the gap between us."
"Well then, today I will show you what a truly powerful mage is like."
"Then let me see,"
Tang Ruobing said.
The tension between the two was palpable, but it was only superficial; in reality, neither had truly ignited. In mage battles, rationality is essential; if one cannot maintain rationality, then a mage ceases to be a mage.
At this moment, standing in the referee’s position was Teacher Lin, the head of the Magic Class. The battle between Tang Ruobing and Feng Xinglie was an internal ranking battle of the Magic System, and having Teacher Lin as the referee was just right.
Observing the states of the two, a slight smile appeared on his face; he raised his hand and said, "Both contestants, get ready! Three, two, one!"
"Begin the battle!"
As Teacher Lin’s hand fell, both Tang Ruobing and Feng Xinglie began casting spells simultaneously on either side of the battlefield.
"Light Body Skill!"
"Power Blessing!"
"Divine Movement Skill!"
"Perception Enhancement!"
Tang Ruobing rapidly cast spells, applying one buff after another to herself, while charging towards Feng Xinglie with considerable speed.
On the other side, Feng Xinglie was full of questions, unable to understand why Tang Ruobing would charge at him with such buffs. He knew Tang Ruobing could use Spiritual Power Suppression, but the problem was, after using Spiritual Power Suppression, she wouldn’t be able to move, making it pointless to charge forward.
Does she have a backup plan?
She surely has other backup plans!
Feng Xinglie quickly reached a conclusion. Memories of being punched "Ora Ora Ora" up close came flooding back, and that terrifying memory was enough for once; he didn’t want to be punched up close again.
"Thousand Wind Dance!!"
Countless wind blades danced around Feng Xinglie’s magic staff, transforming into a storm of wind blades blasting towards the oncoming Tang Ruobing.
While casting, Feng Xinglie also retreated, multi-tasking as he used Two Minds to unleash Nine Dragon Divine Fire on one hand and Wind Walking Skill to increase his speed on the other, maintaining a distance and giving Tang Ruobing no chance to come close.
In battle, he was always steady!
"Ha!"
Tang Ruobing laughed, dodging to the side as she pointed her magic staff at Feng Xinglie, launching an instantaneous Spiritual Power Suppression beam.
People progress continuously!
In previous team battles, she witnessed Ye Mingqiu using War Roar to control a skill while Feng Xinglie was manipulating Nine Dragon Divine Fire, causing the skill to lose control and reduce its power, failing to eliminate Level 1 Ye Mingqiu.
If it weren’t for War Roar interrupting the skill, Ye Mingqiu would have been gone, and they would have lost the team battle.
From that moment, Tang Ruobing deeply realized that interrupting didn’t necessarily require an interrupt skill; using other skills that affect the skill effect at critical moments could achieve the same interrupting effect.
The difficulty, however, would increase exponentially!
Is there a possibility that I could always feel the opponent’s spiritual energy fluctuations and output an interrupt as soon as their spiritual energy changes?
With this idea in mind, Tang Ruobing further optimized Spiritual Power Suppression!
"Swoosh!"
The blue spiritual energy beam hit Feng Xinglie, who was prepared for spiritual energy changes, but he didn’t sense any change.
What’s going on?
Did Spiritual Power Suppression fail? Or is this not Spiritual Power Suppression at all?
Without hesitation, Feng Xinglie directed Thousand Wind Blade to attack, but just as he used his spiritual energy, the glow from Spiritual Power Suppression suddenly intensified, the sensation of interrupted spiritual energy hit him instantly, and his eyes widened while the feeling of Thousand Wind Blade dissipated.
Even more importantly, the Nine Dragon Divine Fire prepared with Two Minds was also interrupted!
What kind of skill is this?
The blue thread wasn’t broken; it remained connected between Feng Xinglie and Tang Ruobing, but its color was faint, seemingly about to break at any moment.
"Flowing Flame Arrow!"
Feng Xinglie quickly made a decision, raising his magic staff to use an instantaneous skill, but just as his spiritual energy fluctuated, the blue thread connecting him with Tang Ruobing suddenly lit up again, interrupting his prepared skill.
The feeling of being continuously interrupted during casting was extremely awful, with even Feng Xinglie’s internal meridians subtly aching. He felt lost; if even instantaneous spells were interrupted, what should he do now?
What else could I do?
’The outcome is already decided.’
On the stage, Teacher Lin at the referee’s seat had already seen through the essence of Spiritual Power Suppression, his expression complex.
Instead of its former suppression role, the current effect of Spiritual Power Suppression involves connecting the spiritual energy of the target through a tether, using enhanced perception from Perception Enhancement to detect changes in the opponent’s spiritual energy, and then boosting output at the moment of change to interrupt magic skills.
The principle sounds simple, but practically executing it is quite difficult.
First, the user’s total spiritual energy must be higher than the controller’s.
Second, the user must possess accessories with Forced Execution effects; otherwise, the opponent can just use Purification, rendering it meaningless.
Third, the opponent’s effect resistance cannot be too high, or they can resist from the very start.
Fourth, the user’s perception power, concentration, and execution power must be extraordinarily strong, otherwise precise interruption would be impossible.
Fifth, the usage distance must be close; once the distance extends, it becomes impossible to sense clearly, rendering interruption impossible.
"Sigh!"
Teacher Lin covered his face with one hand, unwilling to see what would happen next.
Tang Ruobing, concentrating with Spiritual Power Suppression, couldn’t use any magic because her spirit was insufficient, unable to carry out more things.
So, at the beginning, she added Divine Movement Skill, Power Blessing, and Light Body Skill to herself, all for what was about to unfold.
Tang Ruobing swiftly approached Feng Xinglie, displaying a bright and hearty smile, her raised fist making her look like a cheerful, bright young man. Her figure overlapped with the image in Feng Xinglie’s memory, and as he looked at the enlarging fist, a voice naturally echoed in his mind.
"Ora!!"
"Do you know?"
"Ye Mingqiu’s Fist Technique Specialty..."
"Was taught by me!"
Tang Ruobing exclaimed excitedly.
"Ah???"
Covering his face, Feng Xinglie looked at Tang Ruobing, his gaze increasingly incredulous; he felt as if his worldview was gradually collapsing.
....
Inside the lounge
Xiaoguang sat dispiritedly on the ground, muttering softly to himself, "Gone! Gone! It’s all gone! My cool and noble Sister Bing has been infected by this guy! How can she, as a mage, fight so roughly! She shouldn’t... She shouldn’t have... This isn’t right..."
On the other side, Ye Mingqiu watched Tang Ruobing’s attack with great interest, muttering occasionally, "Efficient, truly efficient! Using the most precise means to restrain the opponent, rendering their skills completely unusable, this Spiritual Power Suppression has improved so efficiently! Now I even want to learn it!"
Gifted!
She truly is gifted!
