X-Dragon Era-Chapter 696 - s Trouble Opponent_3
Hearing Xin Yun get to this point, Chu Rui excitedly chimed in, "Right, we agreed once to prove we're not scared, but if we agree to everything, then we're at too much of a disadvantage. We're not fools; it'd be irrational to suffer a loss for no reason. Why should we bother pleasing them and doing what they want when we have nothing to gain?"
"Yeah, yeah..." Yi Luo Xiang nodded in agreement after hearing Chu Rui, "Exactly, whether we're confident about beating them or not, we can't keep doing such things. Otherwise, people will think we have brawn but no brains, always getting outsmarted. As the Fantasy Dream Team, we need to not only outfight others but also not get outsmarted or bullied when it comes to intelligence and wisdom. That's even more important than strength."
Frowning deeply, Po Kong said, "It won't be easy to refuse. What I'm most afraid of is them cornering us with their words; if it gets to that point, it'll be really difficult to say no."
With a wry smile, Ming Xuan added, "Yeah, it's really hard to refuse, but if we don't refuse, it means we're getting played. This is tough."
As everyone was voicing their opinions back and forth, Xin Yun took a deep breath and said with a rueful smile, "That's why I was so anxious to get everyone back here to think this through. We're not afraid of their one-on-one challenges, but if we just let them challenge us like this, it makes us look simple-minded. So... we must come up with a foolproof strategy before the next match!"
With Xin Yun's words, the room suddenly fell silent. Everyone was lost in thought. It could be said that... there wasn't a single fool here, but to come up with a foolproof plan was definitely easier said than done.
After much contemplation, finally... the day's matches all ended, and the matchup chart for the next round was also laid out. Unfortunately, in the next match, the Fantasy Dream Team came up against another strong team anchored by a future member of the Nine Great Experts; this time, it was the eighth-ranked Poison Dragon, Mo Dun!
Speaking of Mo Dun, he had quite the reputation; he came from one of the World's Ten Great Families, the Mo Family, ranked third, with an imposing influence. Like Po Kong, Mo Dun was the future heir of the Mo Family.
Even though it's called the world's third, in reality, the power gap between the top three Family Clans of the world is quite minimal, almost at par with each other. Although there were differences in strength and influence among them, these small gaps were not enough to determine anything. Perhaps it wouldn't be long before third place became first, and the first became third. Anything was possible.
In the room, Zixia calmly briefed everyone on Mo Dun's characteristics, including his family background, and most importantly, Mo Dun's own capabilities.
The Poison Dragon was a type of plant-series giant dragon. In terms of the Five Elements, it would belong to the Wood Series, famous for its formidable defense, incredible recovery ability, and intense poison.
Speaking of defense, although the Poison Dragon's wasn't as exaggerated as the Stone Dragon's, it was indeed as tough as steel. When it came to defense alone, it was only surpassed by An Xi's Dark Magic Dragon, and by quite a margin, in fact, an entire class apart!
There's no need to elaborate on the Dark Magic Dragon's defense—as even Xin Yun had to use all his strength to break through it—and yet, the Poison Dragon's defense was even stronger than that of the Dark Magic Dragon.
Some might say that the defense of the Dark Magic Dragon was already extreme, and indeed it was... But when it comes to sheer defense, the ninth-ranked Diamond Dragon — Ka Ka — claims the top spot! Following are the first-ranked Emperor Sword Dragon — Po Kong, then the second-ranked Obliterating Sand Dragon — Cang Mang, and after them is Poison Dragon Mo Dun, and only then Dark Magic Dragon — An Xi!
However, although its defense is stronger than that of the Dark Magic Dragon, the Poison Dragon is not immune to energy attacks. Any attack could potentially harm it, and it has a relative weakness to the Fire Series. Thus, it may seem less formidable than the Dark Magic Dragon, but in terms of absolute defense, the two are in completely different leagues.

Beyond its formidable defense, the Poison Dragon's most distinctive feature is its freakish healing ability. Even if the Poison Dragon gets sliced into more than ten pieces or burned to a crisp, it can recover rapidly. Unless one can completely obliterate it into fragments in one go, the Poison Dragon is nearly indestructible and unbeatable!
Next, the Poison Dragon's biggest feature is its poison. Whether it's the physical impact of its body or the remote energy blasts, both contain intense toxins. Especially the poison glands on the fangs of the Poison Dragon; once bitten, it's an immediate and lethal effect, and no one can resist such toxins.
Moreover, even without a direct bite, the attack of the Poison Dragon is still terrifying. The poisonous breath it sprays and the toxic mist it spreads are exceedingly fearsome. There's no substance that can resist the toxins of the Poison Dragon; once within its attack range, one must endure continuous corrosion from the poison. Even a steel-constructed giant dragon would quickly be reduced to ashes!
The stronger the Poison Dragon is, the more violent its poison becomes. At its peak, it could even corrode a small hill into nothingness in just a few seconds, reaching the limits of horror.
While Mo Dun may currently have only Ten Stars, one must remember that this is the World Academy Challenge, where everyone's realm is the crystalline stage. Therefore... no matter how you look at it, there won't be any change in the situation. Mo Dun's poison is not something that a crystalline-stage giant dragon can withstand.(To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com for more chapters, and support the author, support genuine reading!)
