“A huge surprise.”
Lin Xiao pinched his chin, looking forward with anticipation.
Based on the information he had, Major General Keri might have possibly been a bearer of Powerful Divine Power, a being of such caliber ntioning a ‘huge surprise’ and a treasure highly esteed by the military – it was definitely an extraordinary object, worth his utmost effort to compete for.
He just didn’t know who the other two victors apart from himself would be in the end.
Lin Xiao had a bye round, with Aria, Wu Zhonglin, Wang Xinhe, and Shen Yuexin remaining. He had no idea how they would pair up or who would win or lose.
Fortunately, even with a bye, he still had a chance to draw cards, not taking them from an opponent but drawing directly from the central card pool.
Most importantly, since it was the last round of card drawing, the pool for this round was particularly extravagant.
Lin Xiao watched the familiar roulette wheel unfold before his eyes, where the thirty-six slots were at least orange – only a third of the wheel, not even including epic qualities, another third were Golden Mythical Quality, and the last third were all shimring with a jeweled light, being entirely Ancient Cards.
This card pool was incredible, practically telling you that even with your eyes closed, you could still draw one or two Ancient Godly Cards.
Lin Xiao actually closed his eyes, started the triple draw with a virtual press, and only opened his eyes after fully completing three turns. Two Ancient Godly Cards shimring with jeweled light and one legendary five-star card flickering with orange light appeared before him.
“Not bad!”
The two Ancient Godly Cards were already quite impressive. He took the cards and examined them closely.
The first Ancient Card was nad – Spirit of Saint Zulfa, summoning thirteen powerful knights of the Zulfa Temple, all Rank 6 transcendents.
The other was nad – Ancient Underworld Mage, summoning one powerful Ancient Underworld Mage, also a Rank 6 transcendent, and was one of those exceptionally strong beings akin to the pseudo-Fla Lord.
After all, the previous Ancient Card could summon thirteen transcendents, and this one only summoned one, clearly indicating its imnse strength.
The last legendary card was a magic item – Thunder Treasure. Wearing it could accelerate the recovery of spiritual power, summoning a thunderbolt every three seconds to automatically strike the most powerful enemy within a five-hundred-ter radius who harbored the greatest malice towards oneself, prioritizing undead demons and other evil beings.
“This…”
No soldier cards, only the summonings of powerful beings and one potent magic item.
With these three cards in hand, and considering the cards he already had, he had a clear plan for the three cards.
First, leave the Thunder Treasure aside for now, as it needed neither disassembly nor enhancent – it could simply be handed over to a powerful subordinate to wear.
Then the Spirit of Saint Zulfa card…
Lin Xiao took out the Ancient Underworld Mage card as well, both cards thrown together into the Creation Rubik’s Cube along with the Undead Legion Card also pulled out and tossed in.
It was simple, all rging into the Undead Legion Card.
Disassembling, refining, quickly completing the fusion, a new Undead Legion Card appeared in his hand, checking it imdiately as he had expected.
The Undead Legion Card had now reached its qualitative limit and couldn’t be enhanced further, so the only option was to increase its quantity. The thirteen temple guard knights were perfectly transford into thirteen Transcendent Rank Death Knights.
And after the fusion of the Ancient Underworld Mage card, the Ancient Underworld Mage beca the leader of the legion of Undead Mages, becoming the thirteenth Grand Magician plus the Ancient Underworld Grand Mage.
Then, he handed over the Thunder Treasure to the Underworld Grand Mage to wear, both to enhance his recovery of spiritual power and to serve as protection.
After doing all this, all that was left was to wait.
Since he had a bye this round, he had to wait for the other four to finish their matches and determine the top three.
After his bye, Lin Xiao learned that each person could only have a bye once, not repeatedly; no wonder Aunt Ouhuang didn’t continue to have a bye.
Waiting was incredibly long, almost as if his little aunt was about to fall asleep during the previous round. At this stage, everyone was very strong, and it was not so easy to determine a winner.
In another virtual plane unseen by him, Shen Yuexin and Aria each sat at the edge of their own plane, directing their subordinates to fight each other within the vast plane.
In this round’s matchup, the only two remaining super beauties t, and after a fierce battle, Shen Yuexin clearly had the upper hand.
There was nothing to be done about it; she was just too lucky. Her combat card group contained more than a dozen cards, with eleven being Ancient Quality cards—four more than Aria, which was outrageously strong.
The observers of this match maintained their silence, which was quite rare; they did not engage in discussions, as there was an obvious power gap. Unless Shen Yuexin made a mistake herself, which clearly wouldn’t happen.
Ironically, the observers of the other match between Wu Zhonglin and Wang Xinhe were also silent; this match had already been decided.
Wu Zhonglin had a group of over forty Kobold Dragonvein Magicians, plus his seven Ancient Godly Cards and Mythical Quality cards amassed on his own, completely overpowering Wang Xinhe.
With that, the top three were set: the lucky Lin Xiao who had a bye, Shen Yuexin, and Wu Zhonglin.
All participants from the Ivy League Alliance of High Schools were wiped out, not one left standing.
When Lin Xiao was awakened four hours later and saw the last three standing in the square, he was not too surprised. On the contrary, if it weren’t for those two, that would have been surprising.
Shen Yuexin walked up to him as he woke up, shoulder to shoulder, and said with a smile:
“Now it’s just the three of us, are you excited?”
Lin Xiao turned his head to see the enchanting, delicate face so close, suppressed the flutter in his heart, and shook his head:
“There’s nothing to be excited about; maybe I’ll get excited when I take first place.”
She tilted her head to look at him and wondered:
“You want to take first?”
“Yeah!”
Lin Xiao said seriously:
“Having co this far, I definitely want to take first place. Besides the official rewards from the Sumr Camp, I can also inherit Major General Keri’s legacy. Such a great, though fragnted, God Country is critical to .”
He paused before continuing:
“My background can’t compare to yours. Among all the competitors in the Sumr Camp, I co from one of the worst off,” he said. “How could I not give my utmost effort to obtain such valuable resources?”
“I see…”
Shen Yuexin’s eyes moved across his resolute face and she nodded vigorously:
“I understand. You have to work hard; that big guy isn’t to be underestimated.”
After she spoke, she seemingly realized sothing was amiss and quickly added:
“But don’t expect to go easy on you. Don’t end up losing to too.”
With that, she made a fist with her petite hand and gestured.
Lin Xiao…
At that mont, Wu Zhonglin suddenly ca over and stood in front of them, his tall figure exuberant with pride. The burning red dragon horns on his head emitted faint, scorching ripples, as he looked down at Lin Xiao and said in a deep voice:
“I heard you’re from Cloud Dream Province, Dongning City?”
“Dongning City No. 5 Middle School, Lin Xiao,” Lin replied.
His gaze fell upon the shadow of the Magic Cube in the Chaos Vortex behind Lin Xiao’s head, a vortex so intense it seed to draw in even light. “You’re quite good,” he said. “Let’s have a private chat after the Sumr Camp is over.”
Lin Xiao responded with a slight smile:
“Sure thing!”
When Wu Zhonglin shift his gaze to Shen Yuexin, a flash of amazent crossed his eyes but quickly disappeared. He said:
“I’ve heard of you before. You can co with him too.”
After he finished speaking, he turned and stood aside, silent.
Shen Yuexin tilted her head, pondered for a mont, and muttered under her breath in a volu only she could hear:
“Hmph, as if I’d go with him.”
Ten minutes later, a voice from Major General Keri suddenly rang in Lin Xiao’s ear:
“Congratulations to the three young people for making it to the end. I’m very pleased that the younger generation of the Main World is becoming stronger with each generation. Now, I’m going to announce the rules for the final round.”
The voice paused before continuing:
“The rules for the last round are simple, taking into account that the three of you could win or lose against each other and there wouldn’t be a clear first to third place, so I’m changing the rules. I will simulate a plane for each of you with the sa size and terrain. I will send an endless stream of enemies to invade, and you will have to use the forces in your hands to defend against increasingly powerful invasions. The one who lasts until the end will be the first place winner of this exchange event and will inherit all that I have left.”
All three maintained serious expressions as they listened to Major General Keri continue:
“You’re now being transported into the plane; you have one hour to prepare.”
As his words fell, their consciousness quickly sank into a rectangular virtual plane.
This virtual plane was five kiloters wide from north to south, and twenty kiloters long from east to west, covered with boundless grassland. On the far right, or the eastern edge, there were ten huge Teleportation Vortices with diaters exceeding a hundred ters. A one-hour countdown was ticking in Lin Xiao’s peripheral vision.
With a sweep of his eyes, Lin Xiao understood the situation within the plane. As he was about to activate his Combat Card Group, his hand hesitated, and a strange expression crossed his face.
After a long pause, he suddenly took several cards in his hands and began to scrutinize them, his expression growing increasingly odd.
“Damn it all, let’s gamble!” he exclaid.
He tossed all the cards into the Creation Rubik’s Cube and began to break them down and refine them, using the Fla lt Sea Card as the core, starting a mad enhancent.
Three-star Mythical Quality Ring of Spells.
The Undead Army Card fused with several Ancient Quality Cards.
Five-star Epic Magic Item Card—Defense Barrier.
Five-star Legendary Quality Magic Item Card—Thunder Treasure.
All these items were completely deconstructed and rged into the Fla lt Sea Card.
Soon, a card with an indescribably rich crystal brilliance erged fresh from the process, holding it felt like clutching a sparkling orb of light.
Ancient Five-Star Summoning Card—Fla lt Sea: Summon the lord of the Fla lt Sea—the False Fla Lord Kurbert, as well as randomly summon fifty to one hundred Transcendent Level Fla creatures, five hundred to one thousand large Fla creatures, three thousand to five thousand dium Fla creatures, and fifteen thousand small Fla creatures.
Note: Fla creatures include Fire Elents, Magma Elents, Steam Elents, Fla Beasts, and other fla entities.
“I must be insane!” he exclaid.
Lin Xiao grasped the new Fla lt Sea Card and quickly activated the summoning.
Then, a massive fla vortex appeared in the center of the plane. Endless lava and flas erupted from the vortex like a fountain, spreading rapidly in all directions.
“I am the Fla Lord, Kurbert!”
