Chapter 27: Bet on Zhang Yi!

In the arena, Gu Xin saw Nono’s figure rushing toward him under the blazing sun, but he was somewhat helpless.

He was doing his best to suppress the restless energy in his body!

It was over, and it was too late to even surrender!

A despairing thought had already risen in Gu Xin’s mind.

Under the circumstances of not allowing him to use his weapons, Nono’s fists were covered in flames as she rapidly attacked Gu Xin.

The energy from the fire dragon showed no signs of being digested at all.

This time, he might not be able to block it!

Just as Gu Xin resigned to his fate, Nono’s attack arrived.

Nono’s thin and small figure was almost incomparable to Gu Xin’s. However, on the surface, she was the one who had the upper hand in the confrontation between the two!

Nono gathered all her strength and threw a heavy punch at Gu Xin’s swollen abdomen..

However…

The loud bang that everyone expected did not come.

Gu Xin’s abdomen was like an elastic ball, and sunk deeply under Nono’s heavy punch.

At the same time, Gu Xin felt that the energy in his body seemed to have undergone a change.

The energy that was originally out of control actually showed signs of being released at this moment.

Following the attack, the energy in Gu Xin’s body continued to fuse into the spot that was hit.

“Dong!” There was a muffled, loud sound.

Gu Xin’s body instantly bounced back.

Nono’s expression was shocked as she was sent flying by this huge force. Her flying speed was even a few times faster than before!

Before Nono could react, she had already flown out of the arena.

Seeing this scene, Wan Ling quickly made a move and stabilized Nono’s body, preventing her from getting hurt from the impact.

Until Nono’s body landed on the ground, she had an incredulous expression on her face.

It was obvious that she had not reacted to what had happened in that instant.

She was clearly the one attacking, so how could she be defeated all of a sudden!

However, when she looked at the arena, she realized that Gu Xin’s gaze was similarly stunned.

It was as if she did not understand the reason for her victory.

“Me… Him?” Nono opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but did not know where to start.

Su Chen also felt a little helpless.

It was not that he felt bad about losing 10 contribution points.

It was because in this battle, both sides did not understand each other’s superpowers. In fact, Gu Xin did not even know much about his own superpowers, yet he was able to win!

“Gu Xin wins. Rest for three minutes and prepare for the next battle.”

Gao Fei’s voice entered everyone’s ears.

In order to answer everyone’s doubts, and also to enhance their understanding of superpowers, Gao Fei commented, “First, it’s Wan Ling. Before they know the specific effects of the opponent’s superpowers, they rashly attack. The final result is that they are defeated under an advantageous situation.”

“Second… Gu Xin.” Speaking of Gu Xin, Gao Fei also had a headache.

He was strong, right? Gu Xin did not even know the effect of his own superpower, and was the only one among all the rookies!

However, if he was weak… Gu Xin still won!

“Gu Xin, your superpower is simply a conversion of energy. You can absorb the energy generated by the opponent’s attack and use this energy to counterattack. It can be considered a superpower that can attack and defend at the same time.

“If you still can’t figure out your special ability in the next match, you know the result.”

Having said that, Gao Fei glared at Gu Xin, who was still standing in the arena.

Gu Xin almost fell to the ground. When Gao Fei stared at him, he felt that he was going to be finished!

How could this person be more terrifying than an Origin Beast?!

However, after the battle just now, Gu Xin had gained a lot of understanding about his special ability.

At the very least, he knew what the function of his special ability was.

Gu Xin was not so stupid that even after Gao Fei explained the principle behind his special ability, he still could not understand how the devourer used it.

Gu Xin pondered over the reason for his special ability, as he prepared to leave the arena.

Seeing his action, Gao Fei added another sentence.

“Gu Xin, you don’t have to come down. You’ll still be in the next battle.”

Hearing this, Gu Xin was stunned.

“No way? There’s even such a thing as a wheel fight?!

“I’m so unlucky!”

Gao Fei did not care about Gu Xin’s complaints. The battle list had been randomly selected by the system, and it was not arranged by him.

However, Gu Xin had only been on the stage for a few minutes, so he did not consume much energy.

Even the energy for the counterattack came from the fire dragon that Nono had released. The only thing that could be said to have been consumed was the energy barrier that Gu Xin had released on the surface of his body to resist the high temperature of the fire dragon.

Gu Xin vs Zhang Yi!

As Gao Fei’s voice fell, the names of the next two contestants appeared on the big screen above the arena!

Seeing his name appear on the big screen, Zhang Yi did not feel any fear in his heart.

Although Gu Xin had defeated Nono in the battle just now, he was not afraid.

However, after this battle, Zhang Yi had already learned about Gu Xin’s special ability.

This could be considered an advantage in terms of intelligence.

Apart from that, with the natural advantage of the arena, Zhang Yi did not feel that he had a chance of losing.

With this thought in mind, Zhang Yi walked up to the stage.

“Zhang Yi.”

Su Chen looked at the big screen in the center of the arena.

He had quite a good impression of Zhang Yi. Although Su Chen could see that his brain did not seem to be working well, he did not feel any resentment toward this newcomer.

Su Chen really did not feel any resentment toward him.

Did he not just mock him that day?

He could just fight back in the arena. They were all good classmates, so what resentment could there be?

However, Su Chen still had some understanding of Zhang Yi’s special ability. If he remembered correctly, Nono had told him yesterday.

Zhang Yi’s special ability was to control metal.

In this alloy-cast arena, Zhang Yi had a natural advantage. In addition, he and Gu Xin had the same level of superpower. This time, Gu Xin would not be so lucky.

Even when Glasses opened the bet, Gu Xin’s odds were 1:2.

“Bet on Zhang Yi! 20 contribution points!”

Su Chen shouted at Glasses.

In fact, the battle went on very quickly.

It turned out that Su Chen was right this time.
