”Did you all remember what I said?” Mo Fan was pretty calm even though he was flanked by two strong opponents.
Mo Fan was obviously not talking to the cunning vixen, Asha'ruiya. He was talking to his teammates.
Ai Jiangtu, Zhao Manyan, Mu Tingying, Guan Yu, and the others still remembered Mo Fan mention that if they found themselves in the worst situation possible, they had no choice but to fight with all they had!
The five members of the English team were clearly more aggressive than the Greek team. They kept blasting Zhao Manyan's defense with their destructive spells.
Zhao Manyan did not preserve his strength either, using all his magic equipment and spells to defend the team from the attacks.
While resisting the attacks from the English team, Ai Jiangtu, Mu Tingying, Guan Yu immediately attacked the members of the Greek team. They immediately cast their strongest spells and focused on the same target. They were not hoping to win the match, but aiming to injure the enemy!
Mo Fan did the same thing too. Even though Zorro who was said to be the strongest in the tournament, he was not actually a pure destructive Mage. It was unlikely that he could knock Mo Fan out in a short period.
Mo Fan aggressively attacked Asha'ruiya like a mad hound, as if he was completely disregarding Zorro's existence.
At the start, the Greek team could still hold their ground; they were a powerhouse, after all. However, they immediately realized that something was not right after a few rounds.
Even though both the English team and the Greek team were picking on the Chinese team, the members of the Chinese team were fighting the Greek team recklessly. They were willing to take the risk of being disqualified just to inflict serious damage on the Greek team!
The Chinese team was using their magic equipment at will, thus the Greek team was forced to use their magic equipment, too.
Magic equipment was like a consumable in a match, as they would no longer be available for the rest of the match once they were used. Despite the two teams agreeing to take the Chinese team out, the Greek team was the only one that was paying the price, to the extent that someone on their team was at risk of being disqualified, too!
---
Not long after, the Greek team realized that the situation was unfavorable to them.
Asha'ruiya panted heavily. She briefly freed herself from Mo Fan's aggressive attacks and glared at Zorro, ”Keep him busy.”
”I'm planning to, but he's ignoring me completely!” Zorro said helplessly.
”Why do I feel like you're letting us fight instead?” Asha'ruiya could easily tell that Zorro was obviously not giving his best.
Mo Fan was only targeting Asha'ruiya, thus Zorro was more than willing to be a bystander. If Asha'ruiya ended up being injured or using a piece of important magic equipment, it would be easier for Zorro to fight her later.
Zorro had also discovered that Mo Fan was not the only one that was targeting the Greek team. All the other members of the Chinese team were going all out at the Greek team too! When the assassin Mage of the Chinese team was disqualified, he even managed to leave the Healer of the Greek team with serious injuries!
The Healer of the Greek team was still in the match, yet it would clearly take him some time to fully recover from his injuries. It would significantly weaken his performance!
”Mo Fan, are you out of your mind? What good will it bring to you?” Asha'ruiya protested anxiously.
”Enough talk! Eat this, you cunning, little foxy!” Mo Fan was not in the mood to talk to Asha'ruiya at all. He would not have been so aggressive if Asha'ruiya had not tried to set him up. If Asha'ruiya wanted to pick on the Chinese team first, he would make her team pay a great price too!
Mo Fan had six Elements in total. As he went all out, even Asha'ruiya was struggling to take him, on despite her outstanding strength. The destructive spells just kept coming. Asha'ruiya had already used two of her defensive items. Even though Zorro had been quiet throughout the fight, Asha'ruiya knew the man was gloating over it secretly!
”AHHH!!!” A cry of agony came from the woods not far away. Asha'ruiya created some distance between him and glanced into the direction of the cry.
She grinned when she saw the defensive Mage of the Chinese team being eliminated. However, her grin froze when she saw one of her teammates being knocked out by Ai Jiangtu, too!
Their plan to disqualify the Chinese team first was working like a charm, since they had managed to disqualify two members of the Chinese team when the match had only just begun. However, the Greek team had also lost a member, and their Healer was seriously injured!
On the other hand, the English team was perfectly fine. They did not seem like they had gone through any battle at all!
Asha'ruiya did not think the Chinese team would react like this. She glared at Mo Fan, who was pursuing her relentlessly.
”Everyone, fall back immediately, and stop attacking the Chinese team,” Asha'ruiya finally ran out of patience. She quickly gave the command to the members of the Greek team.
The members of the Greek team were not idiots. At this rate, both their team and the Chinese team were like two shepherds in a quarrel, while the English team was obviously the wolf running a winning game!
”Asha'ruiya, stop running! Come play another three hundred rounds with your daddy!” Mo Fan yelled when he saw Asha'ruiya fleeing into the distance.
There was no way Asha'ruiya would continue fighting the maniac. If she did, their team was surely going to lose the match!
---
Asha'ruiya quickly regrouped with her team and started evaluating their condition.
Their substitutes would soon enter the battlefield. They had to ensure that their new substitute was not ambushed by the enemy.
The teams in the mixed battle could only substitute members during certain time frames that occurred every fifteen minutes. A new member could only enter the match during that time, and regardless of how many members of a team had been knocked out, the teams were not allowed to send their members in outside of the time given, even if they still had chances to do so left.
In addition to it, if a whole team was knocked out before they could substitute new members in, the team would be disqualified from the match.
As such, the teams had to be extremely careful to not get knocked out by the enemy before new members were substituted in!
The substitute members of a team would be teleported to a certain spot on the battlefield. Therefore, the teams had to prepare themselves to receive the substitute members. Otherwise, the opposing teams could easily take their teammate out when they were still alone, meaning that their teammate would have been disqualified for nothing!
