The Strongest Princess Consort in the Interstellar

Chapter 94: Surrounded

The reason why they are called supernatural beings or superhumans is not only because they can transform into animal forms but also because they possess the five elemental abilities of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Usually, the power of the superhumans increases significantly when they transform into animal forms, and many enemies can be easily dealt with without needing to use their abilities. Therefore, the use of their abilities is rare.

Even when facing other superhumans, unless their relationship is extremely poor, to the point of wanting to kill each other, they rarely resort to using their abilities.

After all, the abilities of the superhumans are limited and once depleted, they need time to replenish. During this period, they become weaker than usual.

Therefore, unless in an emergency situation, superhumans seldom utilize their abilities.

The superhumans in Xiao Qinglan's team had previously defeated their opponents without using their abilities. However, when they encountered Xu Kaiyang and his group this time, they realized that the opponents were quite formidable, even the mecha warriors posed a great challenge. This displeased them greatly.

"Let's use our abilities to annihilate them directly," one of the superhumans in Xiao Qinglan's team suggested to the others.

His words were immediately met with agreement from everyone else. "Okay."

However, before they could unleash their abilities, they suddenly found four other superhumans emerging from the side, launching an attack against them without a word. The ability users in Xiao Qinglan's team were left dumbfounded, not knowing how the number of the other group’s superhumans had suddenly increased.

"Who are you? Why are you helping them? As long as you don't assist them, once we've dealt with them, we can divide their points equally between us," one of the superhumans in Xiao Qinglan's team, Gao Dacheng, spoke to Chen Yihan and the others who had suddenly appeared.

However, Chen Yihan and the others completely ignored his words and continued their coordinated attack with Xu Kaiyang's group.

Even the slow-witted Gao Dacheng realized that something was amiss. The sudden appearance of this team was not a coincidental encounter but a collaboration with the team in front of them. They had been deceived!

If they were only facing Xiao Qingyang's team, they would naturally have the confidence to take them down. But now, they were facing two teams, and no matter how formidable they were, they couldn't handle four opponents at once.

Xiao Qinglan, hiding in the back, also realized this. Her gaze towards Xiao Qingyang was filled with venom, as if she could tear him apart with her eyes alone.

Unfortunately, she had already missed the best opportunity. Now, they were facing two opposing teams while they only had one, clearly at a disadvantage. If they continued like this, they would undoubtedly be wiped out.

Xiao Qinglan had never thought that she would be eliminated, let alone being eliminated by the person she detested the most. Therefore, no matter what, she couldn't afford to be eliminated here.

As long as they could leave this place and find another team to cooperate with, they would still have a chance to deal with Xiao Qingyang. But if they were eliminated here, then they truly wouldn't have any opportunities left.

"Everyone, retreat quickly!" Xiao Qinglan shouted with all her might. Unfortunately, everyone was engrossed in the intense battle, and her voice was drowned out by the sounds of their fighting.

Gao Dacheng actually had the intention to retreat, but his plan was discovered by Xu Kaiyang and the others. They immediately intercepted their escape route, leaving them no chance to withdraw.

"Weren't you all so amazing before? Hand over your points now, and we might make your elimination a bit more enjoyable. Otherwise, if you continue fighting and get injured, don't blame us," Xu Kaiyang changed a few words in Gao Dacheng's previous statement and returned it to him.

Gao Dacheng, who was easily impulsive, had long abandoned the idea of retreat upon hearing Xu Kaiyang's mockery and provocation. He now had only one thought in mind: to take down the opponents!

Xiao Qinglan watched as the battle spiraled further out of control. As for Xiao Qingyang's side, the mecha warriors couldn't get any closer, intensifying her frustration.

There was no doubt about the outcome of this battle. Trying to fight against two teams while only being one team themselves was a foolish hope, unless they had a significant level advantage. Otherwise, even with their abilities, they would only end up being outplayed.

In the end, Gao Dacheng and the others, who had come seeking trouble and trying to snatch points from others, ultimately ended up giving away their own points. Each of them being eliminated, the expression of unwillingness on their faces was almost tangible.

"Just you wait, we'll settle this back at school," Gao Dacheng continued to taunt Xu Kaiyang and the others.

Once they returned to school, they could have one-on-one matches in the arena. They were determined to repay the humiliation they had suffered today!

"Sure, we're not afraid of anyone," Xu Kaiyang provocatively replied, showing no fear of the opponents.

It wasn't until the teacher came to escort them that Xiao Qinglan couldn't believe she had actually been eliminated, and to make matters worse, it was by the person she detested the most.

This was a tremendous blow to her, even greater than not being able to enter the top three and receive special rewards. As for Xu Kaiyang and the others who obtained the points from Xiao Qinglan's team, their smiles couldn't be contained.

"Hahaha, we hit the jackpot this time. We've struck it big!" Xu Kaiyang held the points card of Xiao Qinglan's team, unable to contain his laughter.

"This team is really fat. I wonder how many teams' points they've snatched before us," Shen Yu said, his lips curling into a slight smile as he looked at the points on the scoreboard.

Xiao Qinglan's team had more points than the combined total of their two teams' points, indicating how many teams they had previously targeted and successfully defeated. It's no wonder they were so arrogant before.

"Now everything is going our way. With these points, we're definitely going to make it to the top three," Gao Lingqi was also very happy. These points far exceeded what they had obtained from hunting mutant beasts.

"Alright, stop showing off. There are so many teams participating in this trial. How do you know other teams don't have as many points?" Lin Weiran couldn't help but pour cold water on Xu Kaiyang, who had gotten too carried away, to help him calm down.

There are still five days left until the end of the trial, and anything can happen during these five days. Points are particularly unpredictable.

Once they encounter stronger teams or face multiple teams blocking their path, it's not just a matter of entering the top three. They might even struggle to hold onto the points they have.

Therefore, they mustn't let their guard down for a moment.

"Got it, Captain Lin," Xu Kaiyang replied playfully. Then, he divided the points on the card according to a certain proportion onto his own card and handed the remaining portion to Chen Yihan.

As expected, as Lin Weiran had said, in the final few days before the trial's end, they encountered other teams almost every day and engaged in battles with them. While fighting, they also had to be vigilant of their surroundings, making sure that no third party took advantage of the situation.

As a result, everyone felt exhausted after each battle.

Especially as the finish line drew nearer, they encountered more and more teams, and there were even some alliances formed by two or three teams, just like them.

When facing an alliance of three or more teams, Lin Weiran and the others' first strategy was to "retreat when faced with superior forces" and avoid conflicts with them.

But sometimes, evading wasn't an option, just like now. As they were surrounded by three teams, a total of thirty people, in addition to their own two teams, there were fifty people present.

And this was only what was visible on the surface. There might be other teams hidden nearby.

But even so, these fifty people in plain sight already constituted a considerable force. Once a real fight broke out, it was doubtful whether their surroundings would be enough for them to unleash their full potential.

Among the three teams surrounding them, there were a total of seven logistics personnel, with the rest being either superhumans or mecha warriors. On their side, they had a total of five logistics personnel.

However, due to being surrounded, their logistics personnel couldn't break through the enemy's encirclement. They could only be protected from the inside while the enemy's logistics personnel had already retreated to a safe position, not impeding their teammates' actions.

Therefore, overall, they were at a disadvantage.

"Now what should we do?" Gao Lingqi remained on guard against the enemy, preventing any sudden attacks, while asking his teammates.

If it were just their two teams, they could still put up a fight, but they needed to protect Xiao Qingyang and the other logistics personnel who were still inside.

"I have a suggestion. When the battle starts, Li Ying, transform into your beast form and carry me out of the encirclement quietly, without letting them notice. I'll go ahead and deal with their logistics personnel, and then you can bring Xiaotian and the others out one by one. I'll have Xiaoyi assist you," Xiao Qingyang quickly explained his plan to everyone.

Currently, he was not a match for superhumans or mech warriors in combat, but dealing with a few defenseless logistics personnel was well within his capabilities.

Although the points assigned to logistics personnel in each team were not significant, every little bit counted.

Moreover, if they didn't eliminate these logistics personnel first, when Xiaotian and the others came out, the enemy's logistics personnel would surely come after them.

So, it was best to take the initiative.

"Alright," Lin Weiran agreed to Xiao Qingyang's proposal. "We'll do our best to hold them off. Just be careful when the time comes."

"No problem," Xiao Qingyang smiled and made an OK gesture to them. Then he took out the ability enhancing potions he had brewed over the past few days and distributed them to each superhuman to carry.

In this battle, using superhuman abilities was inevitable, so they should replenish as much as they could. The amount of superhuman reserves would also be a key factor in achieving victory.

After the enemy surrounded them, they didn't rush to attack, as if they were assessing their strength.

However, soon enough, the superhumans among the enemy began to transform.

Seeing this, Lin Weiran and the others quickly took action. The mecha warriors activated their mechas, while the superhumans transformed. Li Ying took the opportunity to carry Xiao Qingyang, who had climbed onto his back, and flew out of the encirclement.

Xiao Yi also took advantage of the chaos caused by the transformation and followed Xiao Qingyang's instructions to infiltrate their ranks, filling the vacant spot in their team. In this way, the enemy wouldn't notice that one person was missing from their team.
