Chapter 83 Methods of a Shadow-Type Mage

Gu Su narrowed his eyes, ignoring Qiao Yu's provocation.

"Gu Su, you have to be careful! That kid's strength is unbelievably terrifying!"

"Yeah, and his ability to withstand injuries is also outrageous. I suspect he really used the Corpse Flesh Technique!"

"Gu Su, you are our No. 1 High School's last hope. You must defeat that kid!"

"That's right, my stomach still hurts. Su-ge, you have to avenge me!"

Du Ziteng and Ruan You chimed in, offering Gu Su advice.

Gu Su raised his right hand to stop them, saying calmly, "Don't worry, I can't possibly lose. I'm confident, and Rongrong is still waiting for me."

Gu Su turned his head and glanced at Shi Shaorong affectionately, then frog-leaped onto the stage.

"Both contestants, prepare!"

The proctor was in a very good mood because Qiao Yu had been very cooperative in the later matches, and the arena had not been damaged at all.

"Wait!"

Gu Su interrupted the proctor. "Proctor, I request a ten-minute timeout! I have something to say."

"Okay."

The proctor picked up a stopwatch and started timing.

Gu Su walked towards Qiao Yu with a cold expression.

Looking closely, Qiao Yu realized that Gu Su was not bad-looking. His features were distinct and angular. If his eyes weren't so gloomy, he would almost be half as handsome as Qiao Yu himself.

Gu Su walked closer and closer, his expression becoming increasingly icy.

Qiao Yu's muscles tensed, and he clenched his fists, ready to strike at any moment. He felt that Gu Su was going to use some insidious trick to deal with him.

The two became closer and closer until Qiao Yu could even see the pores on Gu Su's face. At this distance, Qiao Yu was confident that he could take Gu Su down with two quick punches.

What on earth did he want?

Gu Su parted his thin lips and slowly brought his mouth closer to Qiao Yu's ear.

"I'll give you five million. Will you concede?"

Gu Su's face was uncertain, and he was very nervous inside.

Spending five million to buy the title of Su City's No. 1 and getting Shi Shaorong as a girlfriend was a worthwhile deal!

He was now afraid that Qiao Yu would not agree. Thinking of this, he quickly lowered his voice and added, "I've investigated you. You're an orphan. Besides an old house left by your parents, you have no assets and need to receive relief funds all year round."

"How about it? Five million can keep you fed and clothed for half your life!"

Qiao Yu raised his eyelids. "Are you saying, you want me to deliberately concede?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"But that's the Su City college entrance examination champion, the dream of my life!"

After Qiao Yu finished speaking, Gu Su's heart was in his throat, anxiously awaiting Qiao Yu's response.

"You have to add money."

Gu Su: "..."

Gu Su: "How much do you want to add?"

"Not much." Qiao Yu grinned, revealing his white teeth, and held up one finger. "One hundred million will be enough."

"One hundred million? Why don't you just rob a bank?"

Gu Su shouted excitedly, attracting the attention of the audience in the stands.

Seeing this, he quickly lowered his voice again. "One hundred million is too much! Ten million at most!"

"No! It has to be one hundred million. If I put one hundred million in the bank, I'll get ten thousand yuan in interest every day. That's enough for me to spend." Qiao Yu said seriously.

"I %&*#@..."

Gu Su started cursing in his heart. Imagining the pleasant scenes of being with Shi Shaorong, he still patiently continued to negotiate.

"Twenty million, that's really the most I can do. You're making things difficult for me!"

"Difficult? Well, then don't do it!"

Qiao Yu immediately ended the discussion, and the negotiations officially broke down.

"Qiao Yu! Since you refuse to accept a toast, you'll be forced to drink a forfeit! Don't blame me for being heavy-handed!"

Gu Su's face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip from it.

The proctor on the side looked at the stopwatch in his hand and raised his hand directly. "Timeout is up! Both contestants, return to your positions!"

"No. 1 High School, Elementary Shadow Mage, Gu Su, at your service!"

Gu Su gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words.

Qiao Yu felt a tightening in his heart. Shadow type?

When Yang Xiangdi said that when he used a set of skills on Gu Su, he bore all the damage himself, Qiao Yu had speculated that Gu Su might be a Curse-type mage.

Although Curse-type and Shadow-type were both black mages, the Shadow-type's combat ability was much stronger than the Curse-type's.

Like Zhou Xiang, whom he had met before, he was a weakling after leaving his two big brothers.

After all, Curse-type mages leaned towards support.

"Student Qiao Yu, Student Qiao Yu!"

The proctor called back the dazed Qiao Yu.

"Here!"

"Please introduce yourself before the match."

"No need!"

A voice directly interrupted the proctor. "He's already introduced himself so many times, I'm tired of hearing it."

Gu Su couldn't wait to start.

"Alright, let the duel begin!"

As soon as the proctor's voice fell, Gu Su released his skill.

"Shadow Servants!"

Four black shadows surrounded Qiao Yu from four directions.

Many spectators looked towards the mage arena with anticipation.

Necromancer versus Shadow-type mage, this was going to be a good show.

After all, these were the few professions that possessed summons.

Shadow Summoning and Undead Summoning, which one was better?

However, Qiao Yu grabbed his Azure Dragon Crescent Blade and charged towards the four Shadow Servants.

Summon the undead?

The necromancer himself was warming up!

Clang!

The Azure Dragon Crescent Blade struck the black shadow, emitting a sound of metal clashing.

To Qiao Yu's shock, the black shadow only shook a few times before straightening up again.

"What the hell is this thing? Is it that hard?"

It was the first time Qiao Yu had seen a creature from the Otherworld that could withstand one of his strikes.

"Shadow Servants, steel bones. Do you like the first feast I've prepared for you?" Gu Su revealed a cold smile.

The servant that Qiao Yu had slashed at did indeed pounce on Qiao Yu again.

Clang clang clang clang!

Qiao Yu swung the Crescent Blade in a full circle, and the four servants were directly knocked away by him.

"Is that it? The servants you summoned aren't that good."

Qiao Yu also realized that the Shadow Servants' combat power was not strong at all. Their main problem was their tough skin and iron bones, which made them difficult to deal with.

Every time Qiao Yu wanted to get close to Gu Su, the four Shadow Servants would desperately stop him, and the situation fell into a stalemate.

However, with these four Shadow Servants, it was impossible for Gu Su to defeat him.

He must have some trump card!

Thinking of this, Qiao Yu became even more cautious.

The four Shadow Servants had been beaten down by him countless times, only to get up again and again.

Finally, one Shadow Servant could no longer hold on and fell softly to the ground.

A look of horror appeared in Gu Su's eyes. Before he came on stage, he had already overestimated Qiao Yu's melee ability as much as possible.

But when he faced him head-on, he truly felt Qiao Yu's terror.

Even the Shadow Servants were being beaten to pieces by this man. In Gu Su's eyes, Qiao Yu was no different from a humanoid beast.

After the four-on-one became a three-on-one, the previously impenetrable siege immediately had a flaw.

Qiao Yu seized the opportunity and swung his blade, and another Shadow Servant fell down as if its spine had been pulled out.

The remaining two servants were no match and were quickly dealt with by Qiao Yu.

"It's your turn! Rainbow Pineapple Slash!"

Qiao Yu raised his blade and slashed down at Gu Su.

"The Shadow Servants I summoned weren't just for combat!"

A glint flashed in Gu Su's eyes. He raised his hand and sucked a Shadow Servant that had already died into his hand.

"Sacrifice - Shadow Assimilation."
