Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome

Chapter 395: Participation is the Key

"Oh, they found it!"

After seeing the members of Team Yellow begin to dodge on the stone pillars, Instructor Hurst's voice sounded at the right time - "Yes, the sandworms' vision has long been degraded, and their eyes have disappeared, but they are extremely sensitive to sound. No one can escape their pursuit on the sand."

Along with the voice of Instructor Hurst, the sand began to ripple again. Those jagged pillars seemed to have been modified by the dwarves using special techniques, making it difficult for sound to be transmitted. After the yellow contestants climbed up, the sandworms began to move towards the position of the white team.

Lilith and her team had no time to pay attention to the situation of other players. There was a small black storm above the field, wandering and raging across the field, stirring up waves of sand, which was very annoying. However, the tumbleweeds carrying boxes were spit out from the storm from time to time, so Lilith and her team chose to move in that direction.

The wind and sand were raging and the sand under their feet was scorching hot, making it impossible for them to speed up. A journey that normally wouldn't take them long now required an arduous trek, and they had to hide behind stone pillars from time to time to avoid the sudden increase in the wind and sand.

"Boom--boom--"

Another tumbleweed ball rolled out from the black storm. The fluffy dry ball hit the ground and bounced high up, just like a child's toy. But thanks to this, it slowed down and was caught by Lilith's sight.

"there--!"

Lilith pointed to the right side of the large group. Hannah was closest to that place. She was quick-witted and immediately chanted a spell, casting the wizard's hand. A floating ghost hand appeared out of thin air and held down the playfully jumping tumbleweed.

"Well done, Hannah!" Lucas cheered and rushed over to grab the huge ball of hay.

"Puh, puh, puh!" Hannah didn't bother to respond to Lucas's praise. She spit out sand with a bitter face. It was a pain to chant spells in this damn place! The summoned wizard's hand also dissipated with her "Puh, puh" sound.

"Learn from me." Lilith pointed at her own face, went over to cut off a piece of the hem of Hannah's wizard robe, and tied it tightly around her face.

Ian went forward and worked with Lucas to dismantle the huge tumbleweed, taking out the brightly colored small box inside. Seeing that the magicians had already tied up cloth towels to cover their faces, he opened the box in his hand.

Bobby's heart was beating very fast, and his throat was so dry that it seemed to be smoking in such a dry environment, but at this moment he didn't even bother to swallow his saliva, and just stared at the box in Ian's hand.

The moment the box was opened, a shriek rose into the sky, and a beam of golden light broke through the encirclement of the wind and sand, leaped into the sky and exploded above their heads, and a new number appeared -

"Five extra points for the red team! Oh, teams without any points, you better hurry up!" Instructor Hurst was fanning the flames again.

"...It's a good start!" Lilith looked at the fireworks above her head and encouraged everyone amid the cheers of the audience, "Keep going, friends, head towards the storm!"

Although it is not as good as expected, it is worse than nothing. As for opening blind boxes, as long as you open enough, you will always get the guaranteed prize!

Several tumbleweeds were thrown out from the black storm one after another. Lilith and the others used various methods to stop two of them.

Continuous screams sounded again on the field, and characters jumped out in the sky one after another.

Now even Lilith was a little surprised - uh, their luck seemed to be a bit good?

"Five points, three points! Oh, are you nervous, students of the Yellow Team? Your first place is no longer secure!" Instructor Hurst fanned the flames. "The Red Team is leading for now! Ahem, they are just southwest of you, do something!"

"It's over!" Lucas suddenly spoke at this time, without any joy of scoring consecutively on his face. He didn't understand the rules of the game, but didn't he understand human nature?

"boom--!"

Sure enough, before they could move with the storm, a loud bang exploded beside them, and a gray fog rose up in an instant, spreading towards the crowd with the wind, as if it was going to swallow them up.

"镱——!" The sound of weapons clashing rang out in the fog. Ian blocked the sudden and fierce attack from the gray fog, and his right leg almost sank into the sand.

Someone was approaching silently under the cover of gray fog and sandstorm!

"Oh! The Blue Team finally woke up?" Instructor Hurst teased.

Compared to the yellow and white teams who quickly entered combat mode from the beginning, the blue team was as calm and composed as their colors. They watched for a long time in the early stage. Perhaps the red team's consecutive scores stimulated them and forced them to finally take action.

"The two teams are meeting here! Hey! Everyone, say hello!" Instructor Hurst's voice sounded, "Did you figure it out? Rebecca?"

"Of course." Teacher Rebecca nodded, "This time the competition encourages everyone to face the enemy head-on."

Compared to the random distribution of rewards scattered all over the field in the past, this time the boxes are all concentrated in the tumbleweeds near the storm. Everyone who wants to score points will inevitably gather towards the storm, and close combat between teams is inevitable. Lilith and the others can see it, and the blue team can also understand it, so they are now ready to compete with them.

"Hello, junior." Perhaps he heard what Instructor Hurst said, the strange guardian who came out of the smoke bared his white teeth at Ian. He was probably the best in the blue team, and he didn't take these young guys who were participating in the competition for the first time seriously.

"You are lucky, but... that's enough, junior. The most important thing in the competition is participation." The senior student continued to increase the strength in his hands. The connecting sword blades made a sharp creaking sound, and he continued to provoke Ian.

However, the boy opposite him didn't even raise an eyebrow. He withstood the attack and pushed the ghostly senior back. Then he said calmly to his side, "Keep going."

He saw Lilith quickly grab a huge tumbleweed that was rolling over.

The guardian of the blue team saw that the magician at the back heard the words of the person in front and actually started to dismantle it on the spot.

——Tsk, this really doesn't take him seriously! The guardian's proud eyes showed some dissatisfaction, he shook his neck as if warming up, and then raised his sword and rushed towards Ian again.

These little brats must be taught to respect their elders!

In the gray fog, other guardians of the blue team appeared one after another, and the two teams instantly engaged each other.

However, as if the situation was not chaotic enough, after the magic glow here exploded one after another, ripples appeared on the sand again. The audience seats high up could see that the lines that were wandering on the battlefield between the yellow and white teams began to move towards the red and blue teams!

The red and blue teams still knew nothing about this, or perhaps they could have predicted it, but now they were too busy to care about the sandworms underground.

The audience saw that the Red Team was trying to do two things at once, trying to intercept the erratic tumbleweeds while also dealing with the attack from the Blue Team. How busy!
