I dug up the magical girl's corpse.

Chapter 79 Killer Move

The opponent's initial plan was probably to use magic to weaken Lin Yongxi's stamina and then seize the opportunity to win.

Seeing Lin Yongxi retreat, and realizing that her plan was failing, she had no choice but to temporarily change her strategy.

Although every player wants to keep their trump card hidden until the very end, given the current situation, she is not without the ability to attack. She shouted:

"Magic: Earth as a Shield"

As she unleashed her magic, the arena beneath her feet shook violently as if an earthquake had struck, and several cracks appeared.

Lin Yongxi was shocked and could only jump and dodge quickly, but the vibrations grew stronger and stronger, as if the concrete was breaking free of its original constraints and flying up on its own.

The earthen blocks eventually formed a complete square in front of the girl, reforming into a solid structure.

Lin Yongxi didn't know what the other person's "Heart's Blossom" was, nor did she know what kind of concept could possess such magic. She simply turned around immediately:

"Referee, isn't this a foul?"

The referees in the audience exchanged glances, then shook their heads, showing no sign of stopping the match.

Oh shit.

Lin Yongxi couldn't help but curse inwardly. This had changed the shape of the arena, even uprooted the ground, and created a huge hole in the middle. Wasn't this a foul?

She was being pushed to the edge of the ring, with nowhere to hide. No, if she jumped, she would be the one to lose.

"Hmph, let's see where you can hide!"

The long-haired girl smiled smugly. Her "earth shield" seemed to be a defensive magic, but it could actually be used for offense.

Simply moving forward can create a terrifying sense of pressure. If you control the height and width well, you can prevent your opponent from getting around you and force them to leave the ring.

Lin Yongxi has been driven to the brink of despair, and it seems that taking one step back will put her on the edge.

Seeing her forced into such a sorry state, the audience below the stage couldn't help but start discussing among themselves:

"How could this happen? I thought I could quickly defeat my opponent again."

"I didn't gain the upper hand in close combat, and then the opponent cast a spell and I was cornered. Is this really related to [Dawn]? Don't disappoint me..."

"After all that hype, you're going to be eliminated without even showing us a magic trick? Heh, who's the young lady here?"

"It seems it was just a flash in the pan..."

Many people came specifically to watch this game, but the outcome was disappointing, and they thought they would leave after watching the last few seconds.

They began to feel disappointed with this "Lin Yongxi".

This is the world of magical girls. No matter how beautiful you are or how similar you are to a celebrity, if you don't have the ability, you're just a pretty face and won't be recognized.

On this field, only absolute strength can conquer the audience, make a name for oneself, and shatter all doubts.

However, amidst the skepticism, only the man remained seated, motionless, his expression and eyes perfectly calm.

Chen Mu said in a low voice:

"What are you waiting for? This is your stage to shine!"

As expected, Lin Yongxi did not disappoint him.

The girl on the arena, facing the thick earthen shield wall approaching her, did not retreat or dodge, but stood still.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then clenched her right fist—

Logically speaking, the barrier on the arena should have a soundproofing effect. Apart from the extremely loud cheers from the audience outside, which could create resonance, it would be impossible to hear Chen Mu's soft whispers.

But at that moment, as if Lin Yongxi had heard it, she suddenly opened her eyes, and a dazzling white light burst forth from her pupils!

The white light converged on the fist!

"【Fleeting Light】".

Two words, as light as a sigh yet as heavy as a drumbeat, pierced the barrier of the arena with crystal clarity, resounding in everyone's ears.

Then, light was born.

That was no ordinary light, but a pure beam of light, condensed to its extreme and as white as the blazing sun, which burst forth from Lin Yongxi's fist!

The magic, accumulated to its peak, erupted, and time seemed to stretch out in that moment. The audience only had time to see a flash of white light before their vision was completely filled with that pure, blinding white light. The intense light pierced through the barrier, forcing everyone to instinctively close their eyes, turn their heads, and even let out a soft gasp.

The seemingly indestructible, slowly advancing thick earthen shield appeared so fragile in the face of this destructive white light.

There was no earth-shattering noise, only a very brief but extremely clear snap!

The white light pierced through the earthen shield without hindrance, instantly shattering the solid earthen structure wherever it passed. Before the shattered soil could even fly, it was crushed into dust.

The beam of light, still carrying the force of a fist, slammed into the astonished long-haired girl behind him.

"What?!"

She only managed to utter those two words before her expression of fear had fully formed.

Bang--!!

This time it was a solid, muffled impact.

The pale yellow magical light emanating from the girl flickered violently under the impact of the white light, like a candle in the wind, dimming by more than half in an instant. She felt as if she had been hit head-on by a speeding train, the overwhelming force lifting her into the air and sending her flying uncontrollably backward!

Fortunately, her previous caution paid off, and the strengthening magic on her body provided the final protection, preventing the tragedy of fractures and serious injuries. However, the impact still instantly rendered her unable to resist, and her vision went black as excruciating pain spread throughout her body.

Whoosh—thump!

Her body traced a long parabola before crashing heavily to the ground several meters away from the edge of the ring.

On the arena, the white light had already dissipated.

Only Lin Yongxi remained in the punching posture, with specks of white light still clinging to his fist, and he wore a satisfied and pleased expression.

She can now freely control the magic of [Instant Light], and can unleash its magic at any time if she wants.

This is her trump card! A killer move that absolutely no opponent at the same level can withstand!

Before her lay a mess of broken stones and dust.

An eerie silence fell over the entire "Phoenix Pavilion".

"Well……"

The audience slowly opened their stinging eyes, or rubbed their eyelids, looking blankly at the ring, trying to understand what had happened in that one second that was beyond their comprehension.

Then, the silence was broken.

Whoosh—!!!

Incredulous gasps, frenzied screams, and excited discussions instantly shattered the silence and swept through the entire venue!

"What...what was that just now?!"

"My eyes! I couldn't see anything!"

"The earthen shield has been breached! Completely breached!!"

"One punch! Just one punch!!"

"Is that magic? What kind of magic could have such power?!"

"My God... this destructive power..."

"Is this her true strength?! Could it be that it really is related to Lord [Dawn]? This... this is definitely..."

"Who said she was just a pretty face? Step forward!!"

The roar of the audience nearly lifted the dome of the venue, and even the online live stream was flooded with incredulous comments and bullet screens.

At this moment, countless gazes focused on Lin Yongxi, filled with shock, fervor, curiosity, and a hint of awe. Audience members who had originally intended to leave now stood ramrod straight, on tiptoe, craning their necks, wishing they could rush onto the stage to see what was happening. Chen Mu sat among these standing crowd, a smile on his face.

Very good. Although the epiphyllum blooms only for a fleeting moment, that one instant is enough.
