Seeing Principal Charlie attacking eagerly, Lady Dragon Tar was more convinced that the "Greed Dragon Poison" had taken effect. She tried to provoke Principal Charlie further to anger him while desperately defending to buy ti for the poison to fully manifest.
"But I still underestimated this kid Charlie's strength."
Lady Dragon Tar thought to herself at this mont, "I noticed that he had surpassed , but I didn't expect he had surpassed by so much! Even while severely poisoned, he almost defeated . In the end, he was just one strike away from defeating , or even... killing on the spot."
Her eyes fell on the collapsed Principal Charlie. Lady Dragon Tar no longer shouted extravagantly, and her gaze beca complex, filled with awe, admiration, envy, and fear.
All these emotions were soon replaced with pride: "No matter what, I won!"
Havier shouted, "This... isn't this against the rules? Using poison to plot beforehand, isn't that against the rules?"
Susan remained silent.
Strictly speaking, this was indeed against the rules, but these so-called negotiation duels were inherently so. A completely "clean" negotiation duel practically doesn't exist in history. The other side using poison against Principal Charlie had little to do with whether the King was present or whether he was biased toward the Magic Guild.
"In the end, we were just careless ourselves." Susan gritted her teeth, her chubby face filled with gloom, looking at Lady Dragon Tar, "When did you start using poison?"
Lady Dragon Tar would certainly not reveal that the poison was actually the work of the Earth Fire Scholar. She chuckled and retorted, "What are you talking about? Why shouldn't I use poison? Earth Fire Magic itself is poisonous!"
She panted more as she spoke, showing that being pressured by Principal Charlie just now was indeed quite stressful.
Yet she also beca more smugly excited, her gaze crossing Susan's huge body and landing on Andrew beside Principal Charlie: "I know your healing ability is quite good, and you might rival Old John soday, but even if Old John were here himself, he would be powerless now! 'Healing' and 'Detoxification' aren't exactly the sa!"
With a malicious expression, Lady Dragon Tar grinned wickedly: "This poison may not kill Charlie, but it can completely cripple him! Hahaha, did you think we old folks were so easy to surpass? This is the price of disrespecting your elders!!"
From the throne, Catherine said, "Since the first round of the negotiation duel has already been decided, please, Lady Dragon Tar, provide the antidote to detoxify Principal Charlie."
Lady Dragon Tar spread her hands: "Firstly, this poison has no antidote. Secondly, even if there were an antidote, why should I give it up? Unless the Warm Fire Comrce Association agrees to surrender in the next two rounds of the negotiation duel, then it might be considered..."
Susan's face turned ashen, no longer listening to Lady Dragon Tar's chatter, knowing that whether Principal Charlie could survive depended solely on himself.
Turning back, she gestured for Andrew to carry Principal Charlie away, while she prepared to contact Warm Fire City through the "Heart Net" to see if Captain Linda of the Shield of Flowing Fire could be dispatched to the Royal Court urgently for assistance.
However, Andrew was squatting beside Principal Charlie and did not move to carry him, but instead was focused on casting so magic.
Frankly speaking, Andrew hardly heard any of Lady Dragon Tar's gloating.
His entire mind was devoted to treating Principal Charlie.
"It seems that this poison is not sothing I can dispel right now." Andrew quickly made his judgnt, but was not discouraged because, "if I want to cure Principal Charlie, I don't necessarily need to remove this Fire Poison myself."
The "Water Priestess Series" combined with "Counterattack Technique" indeed couldn't tackle the Fire Poison within Principal Charlie.
Even though Andrew had just deepened his understanding of the Counterattack Technique by watching Principal Charlie's battle, faintly touching the threshold of "Continuous Counterattack," it was still not enough.
But...
If using the "Water Priestess Series" paired with the "Heart of Assistance," it might be possible.
The Heart of Assistance's awakening taught Andrew a principle: two against one will always have an advantage over one against one.
Alone, he couldn't dispel the poison, but he could assist Principal Charlie, support him, and let him remove the Fire Poison himself.
Principal Charlie's strength was imnse, as had been fully displayed in the battle just now.
As for that Fire Poison, Principal Charlie actually didn't have no counterasures at all, he was just a little short.
And what Andrew needed to do now was to make up for that shortfall for Principal Charlie.
So at this mont, Andrew was facing the most difficult injury he had ever encountered, yet in fact, he used the least effort. It was similar to when he first t Ivan and healed him, requiring about the sa amount of effort.
It's like moving a long lever with the least effort—
Principal Charlie suddenly cried out, sprang up from the ground, and made a simulated grasp at Lady Dragon Tar across from him.
This was what Principal Charlie was supposed to execute as his final winning strike in the battle.
It was also his most powerful magical move: Principal Charlie hadn't completely comprehended "Continuous Counterattack," but based on his characteristics, especially the advantage of his Wind-Fire Dual Attribute, he blazed his own path, creating a new kind of Counterattack Technique— "Void Counterattack" and "Delayed Counterattack."
The characteristic of "Void Counterattack" is that it seems like a hard collision, but upon actual contact, the opponent finds that Principal Charlie's counterattack is hollow and without force. Opponents with weak basic skills would imdiately suffer a significant loss of Magic Power and get severely injured on the spot.
"Delayed Counterattack," on the other hand, launches its own power with a delay on the base of Void Counterattack. When the opponent, who had suffered a Void Counterattack, pulls back to retreat and you advance to push forward with montum, you can break through effortlessly!
And this was exactly what Principal Charlie did at this mont.
The simplest "Fireball Technique," combined with the "Blowing Fire Technique," under the coordination of "Delayed Counterattack," landed on Lady Dragon Tar.
Lady Dragon Tar was startled seeing Principal Charlie rise suddenly, but quickly cursed dismissively, "What's all that noise? Do you think yelling can change..."
She couldn't finish her sentence.
Because a searing fla was born directly from her breath as she spoke!
Throughout the previous battle, every magical blow Principal Charlie inflicted on Lady Dragon Tar had a latent force.
These hidden forces now erupted in unison, fire born from the wind, and the wind aiding the fire.
With a loud "boom," a burst of fla exploded right on Lady Dragon Tar's face!
Lady Dragon Tar scread, clutching her face, and rolled over on the ground. This ti, her screams were without a hint of pretense or acting, and the shrill sounds echoed repeatedly throughout the hall, sending chills down the spines of many present Frost Guards.
After delivering the strike, Principal Charlie, as if having exhausted his last ounce of strength, fell again and fainted.
