CHAPTER 66 — "WHEN THE DRAGON CLAIMS THE SKY"
The arena no longer felt like an arena.
It felt like a battlefield carved out of history.
Cracked stone glowed red-hot in places where Divine Flame had scorched it. Frost still lingered in the air from Ouyang Xuer's suppressed domain, shimmering like shattered glass. Spiritual pressure layered over itself so densely that even spectators at the edge struggled to breathe.
And at the center of it all—
Azure Dragon Academy stood.
Not unbroken.
But unbowed.
The announcer's voice rang across the stadium, strained with disbelief.
"—WE ARE ENTERING THE FINAL PHASE OF THE MATCH! BOTH TEAMS HAVE LOST ALL EPIC-TIER MEMBERS!"
The projection screens updated instantly.
VERMILLION PHOENIX ACADEMY
Divine Tier: 3 remaining
AZURE DRAGON ACADEMY
Divine Tier: 2 remaining
Mystic Tier: 2 remaining
A murmur rippled through the crowd.
"This is insane…"
"They're outnumbered…"
"How are they still standing?"
AND ONE GOLD TIER.
