Chapter 174: The Wild Mark
Life always has some unexpected turning points.
Just like when Chen Ran first came to this world, when he was frustrated that the teleportation treasure box had sent him here, and when Azshara met him, these could all be said to be fate. Without all this, many interesting things would not have happened.
Never complain about so-called fate, because some things are irreplaceable. Time will not stop for anyone. You can complain about the difference in your starting point, but in the days of your growth, in the same amount of time, you have the ability to live a more exciting life.
Chen Ran quietly watched the competition point.
At this time, the two sides of the competition stood at both ends of the competition point, waiting for the official start.
Undoubtedly, Eris was the protagonist of this competition, enjoying the vast majority of the cheers and support. But Azshara’s outstanding performance and her age of less than twenty, at the very least, made her a strong dark horse. Her performance was witnessed by everyone. He believed that the warriors who were cheering for Eris’s victory also hoped that Azshara would have a good performance, to increase the excitement of this match, and hoped that it would not be a one-sided scene.
Of course, those who were expecting a miracle also hoped that Azshara could show a miracle and become the leader with the most hope of being re-elected as chieftain in history. Such a dark horse had never appeared in the history of the Amazon rainforest.
In the arena, the eyes of both sides were very serious. No matter who the opponent was, the Amazon female warriors would do their best to face their opponents. In their eyes, this was a kind of respect for their opponents. Even Eris, who had more advantages, did not have a trace of underestimation in her eyes. For Azshara, this was destined to be a tough battle.
Chen Ran could not guarantee Azshara’s victory, but with his help, she definitely had the strength to fight. The key still depended on Azshara’s performance. The only thing Chen Ran knew was that as long as both sides of the competition did their best, it would definitely be a match that would not disappoint.
The two on the competition point did not speak. The sharp look in their eyes was enough to tell the other side their attitude. Chen Ran admired this. He remembered the bad habit of Colin and his opponent talking nonsense during the match. Such a battle was more exciting and full of gunpowder.
The referee looked at the time, nodded, and made a gesture to the two sides of the competition.
The competition began, and the two of them approached at the same time…
The two on the field were a pair of master and apprentice.
As Azshara’s mentor, Eris naturally knew all of Azshara’s skills. She was quite impressed that this girl, who had been under her guidance for a long time, could win unexpectedly.
Eris knew that Azshara wanted to participate in the chieftain selection. Azshara had talent, just like her back then, but she was still too young. Just like Eris back then, Azshara had specially gone out to hunt alone to obtain the qualification to participate.
To her surprise, after Azshara came back, Eris found that she could not see through this student and sister-like girl. She had grown a lot. She had originally thought that Azshara would at most reach the second round, or even the third round if she was lucky. She herself had lost in the first round back then. She had not expected that her final opponent would be Azshara…
She looked at Azshara with a complicated expression. Eris took another step forward, her eyes filled with a strong sense of aggression, and at the same time, she licked her lips.
My little wildcat, you can’t win.
Her eyes conveyed this message.
Azshara was not afraid at all and glared back, as if to say, Even if you are a tiger, I will eat you!
The two sides jumped at the same time, and the scene immediately boiled…
Chen Ran looked at the field and analyzed the situation.
Azshara obviously knew her instructor’s strength. The moment she started, she activated the wild activation potion in her body. He believed that in just a short time, her wild power could rise to its peak and reach the power of a berserk.
From the exchange just now, Eris had indeed taken the initiative in the competition as everyone had expected. She was too familiar with Azshara’s habits and techniques.
Eris had a very solid foundation, which was why she could become the instructor for a group of people. And her own strength was also the strongest among the young female warriors. The most crucial thing was that her attacks were often the most aggressive.
With Chen Ran’s series of super-strong support statuses, Azshara’s body’s aura barely reached the standard of the eighth tier. But the gap in combat skills and experience could not be made up in a short time.
In the beginning, Azshara was in a miserable state.
The unpredictable stick shadows would suddenly appear on every part of Azshara’s body, and they could often achieve the effect of knocking her down or pushing her back. Just like in the previous few rounds, many opponents were knocked to the ground by Eris in this way, and then a stick was quickly pressed against their necks, indicating the end of the match, not even a warm-up. But Azshara’s getting up or moving speed was very fast, not giving Eris a chance to pursue.
Chen Ran shook his head. If the weapon of the competition was the spear used by the female warriors instead of a stick, Azshara would probably be covered in scars by now.
Fortunately, the wild activation potion in Azshara’s body was about to activate, and the balance of victory and defeat was gradually being turned back.
Azshara’s speed was faster and more fierce. Eris’s techniques were gradually becoming less effective in the face of stronger speed and strength. Azshara dodged Eris’s attacks with her more amazing reaction ability. Then, Azshara finally hit a not-so-mistake weak attack of Eris’s. At the cost of taking a heavy blow, she actually launched a counterattack.
Azshara’s attack frequency became faster and faster. Her eyes were red, and she bared her teeth, like a fierce beast. That look couldn’t help but startle Eris, who was looking at her. Her attack couldn’t help but be a beat slower. Although she was not hit by Azshara, the situation was a little more passive.
Eris showed her perfect defense technique, which was so classic that it made people can’t help but praise. If it were anyone else facing Azshara, they would probably have been defeated long ago. But Eris had blocked Azshara’s suffocating attacks with her almost perfect defense technique. Because of this beautiful offense and defense, the atmosphere in the field instantly became explosive.
In the fast attack, Azshara finally found a suitable opening. She gave up the long stick in her hand and hit Eris’s lower abdomen with a heavy elbow. Eris was in pain, but she still showed her high quality. Taking advantage of Azshara’s excitement after her first successful hit, she also threw away her long stick, grabbed Azshara’s arm with one hand, and put her other hand on her shoulder. With a beautiful spin, she quickly turned around, and then with a powerful over-the-shoulder throw, she threw Azshara heavily to the ground…
Chen Ran looked at the tragic scene, watching his woman being abused like this, and felt a sense of helplessness.
There was nothing he could do. This was a fair fight between women, and he could only watch like this.
Azshara stood up from the ground again, but this time, she was different. A suffocating coldness gradually spread from her body…
Has it begun?
A strange atmosphere appeared in the field. Even Eris did not continue to pursue, looking at Azshara, who seemed to be moving strangely.
Azshara’s body was convulsing, not the kind of weak convulsion, but the performance of her body being unable to withstand a special power for a while.
The nearby female warriors found that some colors of different textures had appeared on half of Eris’s body, gradually forming images of various living creatures. On it, there were demon eagles, giant tigers, pythons, and antelopes… They appeared one by one, but they were incredibly harmonious, shining with a moving color in the sun.
“It’s the Wild Mark!”
Someone in the audience couldn’t help but exclaim.
“My God, it’s really the Wild Mark! Has she been blessed by the goddess?” someone said, covering their mouth and crying out in disbelief.
The magical wild runes covered half of Azshara’s body, and it was so conspicuous in the sun. The wild power began to activate, and a faint yellow qi wave steamed from her body, sometimes turning into a tiger, sometimes into a leopard, and sometimes into a flying eagle. Her aura was constantly changing, and a wild “gugu” sound came from her mouth, like that of a hungry bird of prey, which gave people a clear feeling of being about to be devoured.
On the other side, Eris discovered Azshara’s change, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes. She actually felt a rare tremor. She felt that her aura was completely locked, and even her breathing was no longer as calm as before. Now, she was no longer the hunter, but the prey…
Eris roared, tightly grasped the long stick in her hand, and charged at Azshara. Only in this way could she reduce the tremor in her heart. This match was very important to her. She could not lose!
A hand stretched out from nowhere, so fast that it was impossible to see how it appeared. Eris was startled. She saw that her long stick was grabbed by Azshara. Her wrist seemed to have just been flipped lightly, and that specially made long stick was actually broken in two by one hand. At the same time, it was like a broken pride…
Azshara’s other right hand also stretched out fiercely. Everyone only saw that hand suddenly grab Eris’s throat. At the same time, Azshara’s whole person shot up, like a leopard pouncing, and threw the tall Eris to the ground. She locked her throat with both hands and coldly looked at the struggling but unable to escape Eris.
Time passed minute by minute. Eris still did not give up resisting. Everyone found that her strength was gradually weakening, and the strength of her struggle was also getting smaller and smaller, but she still did not give up.
The female elder and the chieftain in the field found that the situation had suddenly changed and realized that if they did not stop it, someone would die. They immediately rushed up and pulled Azshara away, regardless of the result. After being freed, Eris coughed violently. There were purple finger marks on her neck from Azshara’s chokehold. But all the pain was not as painful as the tears that flowed down her eyes.
Chen Ran saw this scene when he went to feed Azshara a life potion. He lowered his head, and a sense of guilt arose in his heart. This beautiful female warrior was still obsessed with the faith of victory at the last moment, and would rather die in battle than admit defeat. He felt as if this had pierced something in his heart. Such a persistent person was also very “beautiful.”
