X-Dragon Era-Chapter 682 - s 484-485: Outsmarting the Enemy

On the viewing platform, Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, Ming Xuan, Po Kong, Chu Rui, and Zixia sat side by side, looking up at the chaotic Dragon Group in the sky, trying to spot Xin Yun among them. Unfortunately, after catching a glimpse of him at the beginning, they couldn't find his figure anymore.

After a while, Chu Rui spoke up, "What should we do? All these guys are so strong. Brother Xin Yun won't be in trouble, right?"

In response to Chu Rui's words, Po Kong eagerly chimed in before anyone else could speak, "Don't worry. He'll be fine. That kid is hiding his strength."

Chu Rui was clearly not entirely satisfied with Po Kong's answer. She turned her head and began to whisper with Zixia beside her. Unfortunately, Zixia knew too little about Xin Yun. Not only that, she lacked understanding regarding the other competitors too, so she couldn't provide any authoritative opinion.

In the end, with no other option, Chu Rui had to turn to Yi Luo Xiang for advice. Yan Qingying might have known something, but she was too cold, and Chu Rui was slightly afraid to ask her, fearing a cold reception.

Moreover, among everyone present, only Yi Luo Xiang's wisdom was something Chu Rui couldn't see through and was the only person who could make Chu Rui wholeheartedly convinced. As long as it was Yi Luo Xiang's judgment, Chu Rui would be persuaded. After all... Yi Luo Xiang's wisdom spoke for itself. Coupled with her understanding of Xin Yun, she could definitely provide the most authoritative answers.

In the face of Chu Rui's inquiry, Yi Luo Xiang smiled lightly and said, "Your question is something I can't answer for you. In fact... I don't know how deep he's hidden his strength, as it's been a long time since anyone has forced him to give his all."

At this point, Yi Luo Xiang paused for a moment, then continued decisively, "However, one thing is certain. Passing the first round won't be an issue. The question is, which number he plans to pass at, or rather, in what manner he'll do it!"

Faced with Yi Luo Xiang's answer, Chu Rui nodded in realization, vaguely understanding Yi Luo Xiang's meaning. Xin Yun's strength was absolutely not an issue. But under the current situation, no one could afford to be careless. Hence... the choices were too difficult. Depending on different choices, naturally, the outcomes would vary. Everything had to be decided based on the situation on the field.

What is the best? In fact... what's most suitable is the best, a concept most people understood. Therefore... not just for Xin Yun, even Yi Luo Xiang didn't know what was the best course of action at the moment. They would only know once the fight commenced, making the most suitable decisions on the fly according to the changes on the field. Only that would be the best.

Time ticked away, and finally... a lingering bell sound echoed across the mountain peaks. As the bell rang out, the entire sky lit up in an instant.

With the ringing of the bell, the Giant Dragons above the viewing stands unleashed fierce attacks, red, yellow, blue, green... Various attacks lit up the entire sky!

At the same time, within the clouds... Xin Yun stood solemnly atop the head of his dragon, carefully observing the battle below, assessing everyone's strength.

After observing for a short while, Xin Yun let out a slight sigh of relief. Although everyone was the Head of the Institute at their respective academies, with a status equivalent to Po Kong's at the Mountain Sea Academy, the world's true masters were, after all, limited. Not every academy's top figure was that powerful.

Out of the three hundred captains, only a little over a hundred could be counted as true masters. As for the other two hundred, they could only be categorized as quasi-masters. Of course... these masters and quasi-masters were determined on the premise of the Water Series.

However, whether masters or quasi-masters, they weren't the focus of Xin Yun's attention. Xin Yun was looking out for the weakest among them. It must be known... these were often the targets for others.

With Xin Yun's experience and perspective, he quickly identified a dozen or so captains who were relatively weak. In fact... there was no way they could pass this round of battle. Their departure was only a matter of time.

Soon, Xin Yun locked onto those dozen or so weakest captains, quietly observing them. Xin Yun knew that these few would soon become the target of others' hunts, and what Xin Yun needed to do was to launch his attack while others were defeating them, to be that opportunistic yellow sparrow at the moment the others succeeded!

While Xin Yun was observing, a fluctuation arose to his right, and he frowned sharply. Although he was in the clouds, Xin Yun had already deployed Acid Fog. Within ten thousand meters, the fog was mixed with the mist emitted by Xin Yun. As soon as someone entered this region, they would immediately be sensed by Xin Yun.

It was clear that not just Xin Yun had thought of hiding within the cloud layer. After all... vision was obstructed within the clouds, and encountering danger there made it very difficult to counter. Even a Water Series Giant Dragon would not dare to enter lightly.

Since a scapegoat had delivered itself to his doorstep, why would Xin Yun act politely? The saying goes, 'Clouds follow the dragon, breeze follows the tiger.' For the Shen Long Clan, the sea of clouds was their world, and no dragon could contend with a Divine Dragon in the sea of clouds.

With a slight smile, Xin Yun and Yinglong gradually became indistinct, quickly enveloped by the surrounding mist. Within the clouds, a dragon-shaped mist moved silently.

Meanwhile, a Water Series Giant Dragon was cautiously hovering at the bottom of the cloud sea, observing the battlefield below through the fog, completely unaware that a leisurely curl of mist was rolling towards it.
