Mythical Card Supplier: Starting with Nezha, the Third Lotus Prince

Chapter 100: Are You Sure You're Not Acting?



Soon, Qin Boyuan and Wang He'an entered with a young man who appeared to be about the same age as Jiang Yuan.

"Let him be your opponent. Would you like to recover first?"

After Jiang Yuan finished making the Skill Card, Qin Boyuan turned to him and said.

"No need, I'm just showing you."

Jiang Yuan waved his hand, somewhat helplessly.

I'm just showing you how I'm holding Nezha back.

But such words really can't be said aloud!

"Alright then."

After Qin Boyuan nodded, he took out a [Martial Arts Arena] card and unfolded it.

Having already explained to the young soldier beforehand, the soldier did not hesitate and immediately entered the Martial Arts Arena.

After Jiang Yuan collected the newly made card, he also entered the Martial Arts Arena.

"Then, let's begin the battle."

As Qin Boyuan's words fell, Jiang Yuan materialized Nezha.

Next were the [Jade Purifying Bottle] and the [Fire-tipped Spear].

Although it was just a battle for show, he still needed to prepare at least the basic weapons for Nezha.

"There's a battle so soon!"

Nezha, familiar with the Martial Arts Arena, was also happy and charged at the opponent with his Fire-tipped Spear.

The young soldier on the other side had already materialized his standard armor and donned it.

Seeing Nezha charging at him, the young soldier also materialized his weapon.

A long sword!

The young soldier was somewhat surprised but not by the mid-stage Xingji strength of Jiang Yuan and Nezha.

The Military Commander had briefed him on the opponent's strength beforehand, so he was not surprised by Nezha's mid-stage Xingji power.

What surprised him was the young man wielding the spear.

If he wasn't mistaken, that young man was materialized from a card?

A summoning card?

The young soldier was puzzled but didn't say much.

Was the Military Commander asking him to use his full strength?

Was he really sure about that?

The gap between small Realms was not insignificant, but compared to the gap between Great Realms, it seemed hardly worth mentioning.

Not to mention the gap of one great and one small Realm between his early-stage Xuanxiao and Nezha's mid-stage Xingji.

Go all out in this situation?

The young soldier shook his head, then prepared to attack Nezha, who was charging at him.

At the same time, a white quality Skill Card appeared in Jiang Yuan's hand.

They wanted to see him and Nezha fight with their full strength.

So be it!

[Thunder Skill·Summon Thunder]!

The white-quality card shone, and in the next second, thunder struck down above the young soldier's head.

"Boom!"

The thunder blasted on the ground, and Nezha's face darkened.

As the thunder struck, his Fire-tipped Spear was also thrown at the opponent.

But because of the thunder, the opponent dodged both their attacks at once.

However, Nezha didn't comment; he was already close to his opponent.

He leaped and swept across!

This powerful and heavy hit was hard to dodge by backing away due to the close distance to the opponent.

Either don't back away and get hit by the shaft, or back away and get hit by the spear tip.

The only choices were to block.

Or be struck.

If you dare to lower your head and bend your body, then the sweeping spear would turn into a downswing spear.

The young soldier naturally understood he didn't have much choice, so he decided to use his long sword to block the sideway sweep of the spear shaft.

Nezha's eyes flashed, and after his sideway sweep was blocked, he flicked his spear to make a quick jab, taking his opponent by surprise!

The sword went vertical, but the young soldier suddenly felt something stirring under his feet.

Subconsciously shifting aside, a huge rock burst forth.

[Earth Spirit·Rock Spike]!

Again, it was an attack from Jiang Yuan.

However, this attack seemed ill-timed.

The Fire-tipped Spear swept across, directly hitting the rock spikes.

The immense force shattered the spikes, but the Fire-tipped Spear no longer had the momentum to strike the opponent.

"Yuan, you're causing trouble again!"

The young soldier, surprised by the block from the Fire-tipped Spear, but driven by his combat instinct, subconsciously swung his sword at Nezha.

After Nezha jumped back to dodge the attack, he yelled out, and Qin Boyuan and Wang He'an on the outside couldn't help but facepalm.

If they hadn't known in advance, they would have thought Jiang Yuan was the one causing trouble.

How could it be such a coincidence?

Are you sure you're not putting on a show for us?

"Uh, this was an accident..."

Jiang Yuan felt somewhat awkward, but Nezha didn't pay attention to his explanation and turned around to engage in a clashing battle with the young soldier.

Although Nezha's skills were superior to his opponent, their strengths were nearly matched.

But relying on his greater power, the young soldier fought Nezha to a standstill.

Mainly because the young soldier's armor helped block many of Nezha's attacks.

The military standard armor's defense was indeed very strong.

Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment, but then he thought about showing Qin Boyuan and Wang He'an how well he could coordinate with Nezha.

So Jiang Yuan opened his eyes wide and watched their fight intently.

Moments later, as the young soldier's strength increased with a white quality Skill Card, Nezha began to be overwhelmed.

Using brute force to break through finesse, that's all there was to it.

Jiang Yuan carefully picked his moment—when the young soldier was sweeping his sword toward Nezha's throat, Jiang Yuan decisively made his move.

Simultaneously, Nezha also rejoiced upon seeing his opponent's action.

Finally, a mistake was exposed!

All he needed to do was to block the incoming sword with his own spear, then a reverse thrust of the spear could directly target the opponent's throat.

The opponent couldn't retract the long sword; this move would effectively break through his defense.

Once the defense was breached, the rest would be easy!

Nezha's tactics were sound. Faced with the young soldier's horizontal sword strike to the throat, Nezha was ready to deflect it.

The feeling of being overpowered was not pleasant.

Even though Nezha knew his opponent was much stronger than him.

[Earth Spirit · Quake]!

Jiang Yuan activated his Skill Card to the rescue!

The sudden quake made the young soldier's body sway.

The ground's tremor disrupted the force of his original horizontal cut; combined with the staggering from the quake, his long sword directly jabbed towards Nezha's head.

Luckily, Nezha reacted quickly, dodging his head to avoid the blade.

However, the edge's cold glint likewise grazed Nezha's skin, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.

"Bang!"

Their bodies almost pressed together, the option to trust with the spear was no longer viable; Nezha had to use an Iron Mountain Lean to bump the young soldier away first.

"Yuan!"

After bumping the young soldier away, Nezha also shouted.

"Leave it to me!"

"Let's end it here..."

After rubbing his brow, Qin Boyuan also withdrew from the Martial Arts Arena.

Nezha disappeared, leaving Jiang Yuan with an embarrassed look on his face alongside the young soldier in front of Qin Boyuan.

"You two have absolutely no coordination."

After waving the young soldier away, Wang He'an, with a frown, spoke.

From the recent battle, it seemed there was no issue with Jiang Yuan.

Even the timing of his interventions was acceptable.

The first time was a coincidence; both attacked at the same time, leading to the outcome where a slight sidestep allowed the avoidance of both attacks.

But the second time, while the timing of the release was fine, it was executed in the wrong place.

If the release had been on the opposite side of where the Fire-tipped Spear swept, or in front of the opponent, forcing him back to face the spear tip, it would have been good coordination.

The third was an attempt at rescue.

However...

"Can you materialize Nezha now?"

Wang He'an was also somewhat troubled; it was not an issue of one of them messing up.

It was purely a lack of synergy.
