Chapter 143: Cornfield Love (2/2)
I nodded. ”Little Gui is correct. This is a great chance for us. If the Bloody Mercenaries want to rise quickly in Floating Ice City, Who Will Fight Me is the key to success!
Yamete rubbed his hands and licked his lips. ”You make me feel excited...”
”Damn!”
……
I opened the Who Will Fight Me interface. The battles for the Top 64 were ongoing. Seventeen teams had already reached the Top 32. Snowy Cathaya led by Lin Yixin, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls led by Murong Mingyue, Gods of Destruction led by Dominating Heaven Blade, and Mad Dragon led by Roaming Dragon were among them.
In the Top 16, it would likely be a fight between titans and the truly spectacular parts of this Floating Ice City tournament will start!
Soon, the system notified me our next opponents had been set. In the sky above me, there were lines of words—
Cornfield Love:
One Corn LV-60 Mage
Two Corn LV-60 Mage
Three Corn LV-61 Mage
Four Corn LV-61 Mage
Moan LV-60 Mage
……
Du Thirteen shuddered. ”Damn! A team of five mages? This... is so strong?”
Gui Guzi had a cautious expression and said, ”A freakish team! This is a super-freakish team. Five mages, all of them third-promotion players...”
I thought for a moment. ”Third-promotion players possess a super strong single-target attack skill—Ice Dragon Howl. It can increase magic damage by 75%. Once the five of them cast together, they can instantly kill one of us.”
Beiming Xue blinked her eyes and said, ”In other words, we will definitely suffer losses in this match?”
”Yes!” I nodded. ”Little Gui and I will be cannon fodder and attempt to kill 2–3 mages. The rest will be up to Lil Beiming and the rest of you!”
”No problem, don't worry!”
Everyone exchanged looks, our gaze full of agreement and trust. A workshop could not lack trust in each other's strength in the long run.
I had absolute confidence in Beiming Xue's long-range attacks, Gui Guzi's close combat power and Defense, and Mamate's healing abilities. Similarly, the three of them respected my strength, and even revered it. My strength was above the three of them. As for Du Thirteen's strength, everyone ignored it. In reality, in this tournament, we’ve been prepared to fight 4v5 since the very beginning.
A few seconds later, accompanied by white light, the five-person team appeared!
The four corns were male mages about twenty or so. They should be students. The other was a female mage called ”Moan”. She looked alright, but did she not know the meaning of her name? Thinking of the cornfields, then moan, I suddenly blushed...
Beiming Xue tilted her head and looked at me. ”Boss, why are you blushing?”
”Cough cough, you must be seeing things... prepare for battle!”
”Oh oh!”
The system started the countdown and we also held our breaths. Our opponents this time were not weak. Mages were natural killers of warriors, and warriors were natural killers of mages. This battle would completely depend on bravery and strength, and who was more decisive.

Start!
Gui Guzi immediately charged out first. The five mages started chanting together. In the next moment, their magic power surged, turning the sky blue. Five magic vibrations from their respective ice dragons plunged down from the skies and smashed into Gui Guzi’s head, immediately causing five damage numbers to float up!
935!
1050!
980!
1110!
1220!
At the same time, there was a string of green damage absorbing numbers—
+280!
+315!
+294!
+333!
+336!
After the damage ended, Gui Guzi shook slightly and turned into dots of light. He had been instantly killed!
