Endless zombies?

Nothing was ever endless in this world!

Zorro’s Chaos Element was thought to be unbeatable, since it was able to bear up against the strength of every destructive spell, but didn’t Mo Fan still defeat him with a single Sky Lightning Claw?

At the Nazca Lines, the creatures seemed to be endless, but it turned out that most of them were just illusions!

Similarly, the undead of the Egyptian team was not endless, either. It was just that the Greek team and the English team were unable to hold it together, and were eventually worn out in the long battle!

Even after Shreev joined the fight, Mo Fan was able to eliminate the undead at a remarkable pace. He was just too experienced in dealing with the undead, he was completely unafraid of them, and well aware of their weaknesses. He knew what spell would be the most effective to eliminate or suppress them!

Mo Fan’s basics were extremely solid, too. He was able to cast Basic Spells by just waving his hands. When trapped by the undead, a higher-level spell was not necessarily the most effective way to clear a path, since Mages would not have many chances to cast them. If a Star Constellation was interrupted in the process, the Mage would still lose the energy needed to cast it.

Therefore, Basic and Intermediate Spells were the key to fighting the undead!

“Lightning Strike!” Mo Fan established an electric field. The lightning arcs with paralyzing effects surged wildly between the Dark Red Mummies and immobilized them.

After acquiring the Lightning Tyrant, Mo Fan’s Basic Lightning Spells were almost as strong as an ordinary Mage’s Intermediate Spell. He could deftly cast Lightning Strikes as he wished at a negligible cost of energy. Even though a Lightning Strike was not strong enough to kill a Dark Red Mummy, it could still hold them off effectively. By casting a few more Lightning Strikes, or when the arcs of lightning were conducted continuously between the mummies, they would eventually inflict notable damage on them!

“Groundbreak!” Mo Fan slammed his fist into the ground when he sensed a huge bunch of mummies coming up out of it. He decisively used a stronger attack to eliminate them all.

If he was any slower, a few dozen Dark Red Mummies would soon crawl out of the ground. The Fiery Fist: Groundbreak basically wiped them all out in an instant!

The Dark Red Mummies ability to jump was fairly shocking. As a new batch of them arrived, some charged at Mo Fan while the others leapt into the air and lunged at him, trying everything they could to approach him.

“Telekinesis: Scatter!” Mo Fan was enveloped by a silver aura. A strong shockwave produced by his will knocked the mummies nearby flying, and they crashed back into their comrades!

“Fire Burst Feathers!” Countless spouts of flames appeared, before they were fired in all directions like feathers. The feathers exploded whenever they came into contact with the mummies!

A series of explosions took place around Mo Fan, like deadly, murderous fireworks!.

Mo Fan had recently learned a new move, Fire Burst Feathers, by combining the Basic spell Fire Burst and Little Flame Belle’s Thousand Piercing Fiery Feathers. Its damage was more than double the previous spells combined!

Mo Fan’s Fire Burst had already reached the fourth-tier, so the explosions were shocking. When they were launched in the form of Thousand Piercing Fiery Feathers, it felt like a thousand Fire Mages were casting Fire Burst simultaneously. It was not as effective against an Advanced Mage, because the attack did not focus on a single target, but it was perfect against the mummies!

The explosions were strong enough to inflict serious damage on the Dark Red Mummies. With the continuous explosions, a single Dark Red Mummy would be struck many times. Most of them died amid the explosions!

“Isn’t this guy’s strength a bit too terrifying to be true? He just killed all our undead!” Shreev stared at Mo Fan with wide eyes.

Meos was stunned too. The man was nothing like a student. He was more of a killing machine in a war. There were so many undead surrounding him, yet he had managed to slaughter them all!

“Most of the spells he cast were only Basic or Intermediate Spells too, meaning that he still has a lot of energy left!”

“We have to Summon more undead, we can’t afford to let him come any closer!” Meos said with a twisted look.

“But…we’ve used a lot of the Pharaoh Spring!”

“Don’t Summon the Dark Red Mummies, they are just too weak for him. He must have fought in a large battle before. He knows how to preserve his energy, unlike the English team and the Greek team that kept relying on their Advanced Spells to destroy everything,” Neferu of the Egyptian team noticed.

“It looks like we’ll have to Summon even stronger undead instead. Shreev, try keeping him busy for now,” Meos nodded.

Meos needed more time to Summon stronger undead, so she wanted Shreev to stop Mo Fan from coming any closer on his own.

“Me? I won’t be able to do it, that guy is killing my undead like he’s cutting weeds with a sickle… how did we end up facing such a troublesome man? The English team and the Greek team were so easy to handle!”

“I didn’t expect him to give us so much pressure.”

—

On the other hand, Mu Nujiao, Zhao Manyan, Jiang Yu, and Guan Yu continued to hold their ground. They had finally cleared a path through the army of undead, allowing them to see if the Egyptian team was sending more undead at them.

However, when they looked further into the distance, they were shocked to see a huge pile of corpses stacked up. It was almost a hill!

“It’s Mo Fan!” Jiang Yu was astounded.

Was Mo Fan for real? He had killed more undead than the four of them, and was not under any kind of protection, yet he was perfectly unharmed despite being surrounded by the undead!

“Is he forcing himself?” Guan Yu was struggling to accept the truth. How was it possible for Mo Fan to have such extraordinary strength?

“No wonder it feels like the pressure has slowly decreased. As expected of the man that saved the Ancient Capital!”

“I almost forgot, Mo Fan went through the Calamity of the Ancient Capital, one of the cruelest battles against the undead in history! No wonder he’s so experienced at killing them!”

With Mo Fan on the team, the other members were very much at ease. Both the Greek team and the English team were completely worn out when facing the Egyptian team. They could not even cast a single Basic Spell in the end. Compared to them, the Chinese team did not lose much of their energy. Mo Fan had purposely told them to refrain from using Advanced Spells. If a Basic Spell was enough to finish off an undead, don’t use an Intermediate Spell!

—

The students had not fought in any wars before. Even when they were training, they did not find themselves in a precarious situation, where losing the battle would cost them their lives.

On the other hand, Mo Fan had avoided death quite a few times. He had been surrounded by demon creatures many times. Perhaps even Ai Jiangtu and his military background was not as experienced as Mo Fan. The experience of trying to survive amid the despair of being surrounded by demon creatures was definitely not something students could learn from mere training!

The undead strategy of the Egyptian team might be useful against most participants, but it was nowhere near as effective against Mo Fan, who had survived an ocean of undead before!

—

“Still trying to Summon more?” Mo Fan had an intimidating grin as he stared at Shreev.

Shreev was utterly terrified. He was scared that Mo Fan would eliminate him together with the undead. The truth was, Mo Fan’s aura was totally different when he was on a rampage. He was basically a devil, with an overwhelming, deathly aura!

“I…I’ll leave myself…” Shreev said with a twisted face. He never thought he would be the first person to be knocked out from the match.

“I’ll give you a hand!” Mo Fan grabbed Shreev and sealed him off with the Giant Shadow Spikes, preventing him from casting a spell to Summon more undead.

He lifted the short man and tossed him toward the edge of the island.

The magic barrier was able to stop spells, but it would not stop a person from going through. Shreev fell straight into the sea, looking utterly miserable!

An assistant judge soon went over and scooped him out of the water. Shreev was not injured, yet he felt greatly humiliated after being tossed into the ocean like that!

“Screw that Meos, how could she ask me to stop that man? How could I possibly stop him on my own?”

Shreev was regretting listening to Meos’ instructions. Even though a new member would soon replace him, he was still knocked out from the match!

—

“Mo Fan, you’re going to pay for that soon!” Meos snapped.

Shreev was indeed unable to hold Mo Fan off. The Egyptian team had lost its first member!

“You’re the next!” Mo Fan replied with a calm smile.

As a matter of fact, it had been a while since Mo Fan had so much joy in a battle, the sensation of blasting the undead into pieces with every punch…

He sighed. He was really a man of great sins. How could he be enjoying the pleasure of murdering the undead?

It must be Little Loach!

The Soul Remnants of the undead he had killed were like shiny gold coins lining up to enter his pouch!

That’s right, that must be the reason behind it. Little Loach was able to refine the Soul Remnants. The Soul Remnants of these undead were of high-quality, too! He just needed to kill a few more to acquire the fifth-tier Thunderbolt!

The higher the level of a destructive spell, the more effective it was. The same principle applied here in the World College Tournament. It was the main reason why people were not willing to waste their money on upgrading their Basic and Intermediate Spells.

However, based on Mo Fan’s personal experience, it was actually very useful to upgrade both the Basic Spells and Intermediate Spells. He was able to cast the spells quicker, the cooldown was shorter, and the energy required was lower, too. The benefits were actually quite insane!

Mo Fan’s Fiery Fist was pretty strong, yet it was only enhanced by a Spirit-grade Seed, the Rose Flame. It was only useful with Little Flame Belle’s Calamity Fire, but he did not have an endless supply of them.

Meanwhile, his Soul-grade Lightning Seed was able to amplify the damage of his Lightning Spells by six times!

If he could upgrade the Intermediate spell Thunderbolt to the fifth tier, then with the Lightning Tyrant, its damage was going to be higher than an ordinary Advanced Spell. In addition to that, he could cast the spell more rapidly at a lower energy cost, allowing him to eliminate the undead easily!

As such, Mo Fan was hoping that Meos would summon more Dark Red Mummies to attack him. He would soon acquire the fifth-tier Thunderbolt!

As he thought, Meos did Summon some new undead, but it was not more Servant-class or Warrior-level undead, but a Commander-level undead!
