In the Name of Empress-Chapter 559 - 339: Slay! (Part 3)

Even the Firebird is a Tier Five Strong.

Lisa merely briefly elementalized herself, simulating the form of the elemental creature Firebird, to unleash the purest flame impact.

Even so, it had already exceeded the Flame Elemental Spirit’s understanding of human Transcendents.

"Is this something human Transcendents can achieve?"

Although Hawkeye’s attitude towards humans was arrogant and domineering, he was relatively gentle towards his own kind. He smiled and explained:

"A specialized Transcendent ability combined with pure flame magic control can create miracles."

Miracles.

This word invigorated Oliver and made Jena’s expression a bit unnatural.

She didn’t like this notion, nor did she believe that Lisa could break through Grosso’s Offensive and Defensive Integration.

The rankings just announced by Professor Hawkeye contained many errors, including those involving the Thunder Sage and the Sword Saint.

The usual state of the Sword Saint indeed wasn’t a match for the Thunder Sage, but when he raised his heavy sword, entering the Offensive and Defensive Integration state, his strength surpassed Ansue.

He and Ansue were Schrödinger’s runners-up; either of them could win.

At this moment, the Sword Saint was literally number two.

The pinnacle of swordsmanship is Offensive and Defensive Integration, and the pinnacle of flame is high temperature, a high temperature that surpasses defense.

"Sizzle!"

Lisa, having transformed into a Firebird, shot flames from the sky, precisely hitting the Sword Saint.

Grosso was engulfed in flames, his entire body ablaze, but he remained unmoved.

His Offensive and Defensive Integration swordsmanship was enough to withstand any damage.

Though he was in pain, he believed Lisa would give in sooner.

His guess wasn’t wrong. Despite his skin being burned in multiple places and even getting a bit scorched, he still held on.

Grosso looked at Lisa falling from the sky, a cruel smile appearing at the corner of his lips.

To kill without mercy is the greatest respect.

Miss Lisa, please proceed on your way.

Just as he swung his sword to fend off Roland and Sif’s attacks, waiting for Lisa to land, unknown powder sprinkled from the sky.

He instinctively held his breath but was still irritated by the powder in his nose, causing him to sneeze violently.

Was it pepper, chili powder, and cumin?

Forced to inhale the air, Grosso was dumbfounded.

Before he could speak, Lisa burst into clear laughter in the sky, "Sorry, the seasoning was sprinkled late; the flavor might not be great, wasting ingredients."

Everyone knew this was mockery and provocation, yet Grosso was still broken.

His old face flushed red; this damn woman actually treated him like grilled meat?!

...

In the air, the Flame Elemental Spirit was laughing heartily, flames flickering in his pupil-less eyes, matching his joyful mood.

"It’s so interesting. This human actually treats the enemy as a dish."

"No, this is a brilliant provocation method. Look, the one holding the heavy sword rushed into the encirclement."

"The battle is almost over."

Hawkeye sighed lightly, pointing to Alina reciting prophetic poems under the Ginkgo Tree.

"She is quite bold too, daring to make a loan prediction."

"Professor Hawkeye, what is a loan prediction?" A young, adorable Elemental Spirit asked curiously in a soft voice.

Hawkeye didn’t answer immediately but instead asked with a smile, "Do you know the ultimate killing move of Astrology?"

"Yes, the Great Prophecy Skill." The young Elemental Spirit replied instantly.

"The Great Prophecy Skill is a loan prediction. It foretells the enemy’s death in advance and then utilizes the disparity in power to turn the prophecy into reality, thus avoiding backlash. This is the Great Prophecy Skill."

Hawkeye smiled and said, "The Great Prophecy Skill is a very powerful skill, but it’s also very dangerous. If the prophecy cannot be fulfilled, the backlash force can easily tear apart the prophet."

"That human Astrologer has made five loan predictions simultaneously. If she fails, it would result in a dual death of body and soul."

"What if she succeeds?" The young Elemental Spirit asked curiously.

"Success is just success," Hawkeye replied nonchalantly.

"Is there no benefit?" The young Elemental Spirit was a little disappointed.

"Not having to repay the loan’s interest, isn’t that a benefit?" Hawkeye was amused by the young Elemental Spirit.

"See, the battle is about to end."

As Hawkeye made the judgment, the battle came to its climax.

Sword Saint Grosso’s mental cultivation was ultimately lacking a bit. Because he was broken by being treated like grilled meat.

If it were Roland, he would have laughed and asked the opponent to watch the cooking temperature.

If it were Sofia, she would have cut down the enemy with a single sword.

Unfortunately, Sword Saint Grosso lacked both Roland’s mindset and Sofia’s strength. Balanced abilities in all aspects also mean overall mediocrity.

Grosso was eventually killed under the Ginkgo Tree by the joint efforts of Sif and Roland.

The next battle was the showcase for Alina and Sif.

Alina made a loan prediction at the moment Grosso rushed into the Flower Sea, determining Grosso’s death.

Before she was backlashed by the prophetic force, Grosso died.

She pressed on, continuing to predict the deaths of the Great Shaman, the Spirit Medium, and the Yoga Prince.

Roland and Sif cooperated perfectly, taking them down one by one.

Roland was the Steel Wall, and Sif was the Piercing Spear. Wherever they went, Alina’s prophecies were fulfilled one by one.

As the heart of the Spirit Medium was pierced, the battle in the Flower Sea was declared over.

All members of Sofia’s team survived, but Sofia and Lisa were severely injured and lost their combat ability, while the others were also wounded.

All members of Sofia’s enemy team were annihilated.

The outcome was lopsided, but the process was perilous.

If Grosso could have cooperated tacitly with others, there was a complete chance to break Roland’s defensive circle.

Once Roland fell, Alina would face backlash from failed prophecies, Lisa would burn herself out, and Sif could only perform the Elf’s swan song under the Ginkgo Tree.
