Chapter 91: The Qualifiers for the Martial Soul Duel
"Today is Liu Shengjun's first battle, right?" In the conference hall of the Sword Heroes Association, several Sword Heroes were chatting.
"Well, Yanagi-kun has already set off for the qualifiers. Hoshino Yuaki replied casually while looking at the three-dimensional projection.
"Every time I watch this paragraph, I feel that Chief Sasaki and Yanagi Jun are really unfathomable, although those experts in the project team analyze these movements to the Tao, but how can people do this kind of action?"
"Those experts don't care if you can make it or not, as long as they figure it out. ”
"It's too difficult, Chief Sasaki and Yanagi-kun are the same as us, but we're too far behind, right?"
"Come on, what is called a sword hero, people are half-step sword saints, why are you called a sword master?"
"Eh, isn't it a qualifier today?
"Ao, I know about this, Yanagi-kun said that he has no experience in this kind of competition, and he wants to accumulate some experience from the qualifiers, so he didn't use the recommendation right of the Sword Hero Club. ”
"-I'm afraid that Liu Shengjun will be disappointed, as long as there is a little ability or prestige, the players can start directly from the official competition, and the people who participate in the qualifiers are generally here to mix a name that has participated in the martial soul duel competition. ”
"Haha, no matter what, at least Yanagi-kun can familiarize himself with the admission process!"
"Hahaha. Several swordsmen present laughed.
"Teacher, the time has come. In the lounge, Aoki reminded Yanagi in a whisper in his ears with his eyes closed.
In the modern martial arts duel competition, the players who are paired are all randomly matched by the computer, and the opponents who have basically the same evaluation of personal martial arts.
And Yanagi Motokazu has 0 martial arts points in the martial arts duel, or the world martial arts rankings, because he does not have any record of the results of an open tournament (the kind of competition of the Tokyo Metropolitan Junior High School Kendo Award is not counted in the martial arts competition score record), and naturally the opponents he matches are not very smart.
Liu Shengyuanhe slowly opened his eyes, he originally thought that he would be a little nervous in his heart when he participated in this kind of world competition for the first time, but when it came to the end, maybe because he had a more thorough understanding of himself last night, he was actually calm in his heart, and he didn't even fluctuate.
Slowly stood up from the sofa, today he was wearing a protective kendo suit that Jianhao would customize for him, and according to his requirements, the style was specially modified, and inside the kendo suit was a Ruyi armor that he customized to Master Mingshan, which was directly registered as a 'special tortoise shell' by the staff just now, which made Liu Shengyuan and secretly scream in his heart 'bad luck'.
However, the customs of Japan and the Celestial Empire are different, and the Japanese turtle is a ruizhao, but there is no such pejorative connotation as a green hat.
From the blue side's exit channel, Yanagi Yuanhe walked out slowly, and looked at it from the audience, today's Yanagi Yuanhe was wearing a white kendo uniform, with wide sleeves fluttering, and the upper body chest and abdomen were tightened and close to the body, lining his figure slender and straight, with half a black frosted mask on his face, covering the face above the bridge of the nose.
The deep black of the mask is in stark contrast to Yanagi Shengyuan's white clothes, and the hands and feet that expose the outside of the kendo suit are all skin-like jade, and only the black of the mask on the face of the whole person is particularly prominent, so that people can notice the perfect lower half of the face under the mask at first glance. There are also two small black wings at the top of the mask, which are attached to the left and right temples of the head, which can also provide some protection.
This image was not created by Yanagi Shengyuan and himself on a whim, but was designed overnight by a senior image designer specially hired by Hiromi Takahashi. This mask is shaped like this in order to enhance the mystery of Yanagi Yuanhe, after all, his fourteen-year-old face is still a little green, and he can't be eaten by all ages, and the martial soul is definitely not open to audiences under the age of twenty-five at all, so for the sake of the road to stardom, the designer designed this image for him, while covering up the sense of youthfulness, but also creating a slightly mysterious image of a beautiful boy for him.
If Liu Shengyuan can give his appearance a score of eight on weekdays, look in the mirror after changing into this outfit, Liu Shengyuan and feel that his appearance at the moment can be above nine points, to say the least, as for what is nine o'clock, he is not sure, anyway, there should be no pressure to be an idol star.
He didn't wear shoes and stepped into the ring barefoot.
Ever since Yanagi discovered that his pores could breathe, he didn't like to wear shoes very much, and the feeling of tightly wrapping his feet always made him feel a little stuffy on his feet.
Fortunately, in Japan, whether it is kendo or karate, it is a tradition to step on the competition venue and not wear shoes, so his behavior is not rude.
The ring of Wuhun Duel is not a wooden ring, but a special high-strength rubber floor, which can fully ensure that the contestants will not affect their performance because the floor is too slippery.
Because this is just a qualifier, there are not many spectators, and the room is not very large, only fifty spectators, and it is not yet full of spectators.
However, at the very front of the audience, the two people who were most important to him were on the scene, and his father Yagyu Kazushima and his mother Masako Minamida were sitting side by side and waving to him.
The corners of Yanagi's mouth under the mask curved upward, and he raised the long knife he was holding in his left hand and shook it slightly in the direction of his parents, then looked at his opponent.
Ten meters away, from the red runner's tunnel, Yanagi and the opponent of this match also stepped into the ring.
Wang Hong felt that he was very lucky, he originally participated in this martial soul duel, which was completely the result of a bet with his friends, so he didn't ask to win a few games, anyway, as long as he stepped into the ring of the martial soul duel, it would be considered as a completion of the bet.
However, looking at the opponent opposite, Wang Hong felt that at least he still had a great chance of winning this one, so that even if he was eliminated in the next game, he would not be disgraced when he went back, after all, he had won one game and had never won a game, and for the players who participated in the martial soul duel, it was also a big difference.
Dare to come to participate in the martial soul duel, Wang Hong has also practiced for a few years, and he is famous in the circle of friends to be able to fight, once once, he went out with a few friends, and met a little hooligan who molested the girl on their side, the two sides clashed, Wang Hong alone put down the four gangsters, and for a while he became famous in the circle of friends, like a martial arts master, and his current girlfriend was the fate formed at that time.
However, it is precisely because of this reputation that he sometimes can't wipe off his face, no, during the Chinese New Year this year, he was squeezed by his friends, and his brain was hot, so he signed up to participate in this martial soul duel.
However, at this moment, seeing the opponent who walked out of the blue channel, Wang Hong suddenly felt that the psychological pressure was reduced a lot, he was originally very nervous, and even the palm holding the spear was sweating, but the moment he saw his opponent, he was magically calm. You might be able to make it to the next round, right?
Where did the beautiful boy with fluttering sleeves on the opposite side come to participate in the martial arts competition, he clearly came to walk the catwalk, the other party's posture, Wang Hong dared to say, even if he is an international-level male model, he is at most like this on stage, I saw him barefoot, step by step on stage, every action looks extremely pleasing to the eye, with the swing of the robe sleeves, it is like the immortal in the painting has entered reality.
The beautiful boy is holding a sword in his left hand, the upper half of his face is covered by a translucent black mask, revealing the part below the nose, his hands and feet and exposed jaw, his skin is pure and smooth, as if it is like jade, there is a warm luster. In contrast to the black mask, it shows a mysterious beauty. The whole person was covered in a body, except for the kendo suit, not even half of the armor.
The armor on Wang Hong's body is the so-called Mingguang Iron Leaf Armor, the breastplate is a whole piece of metal, protecting all parts from the neck to the waist and abdomen, there is also a heart guard embedded in the chest, and the arms and legs are metal armor composed of layers of iron leaves, fixed with various elastic straps and locks. This set of armor was originally filmed in a costume film - "Zhao Zilong", the prototype armor used by the protagonist.
Of course, the movie has been filmed, this set of armor was borrowed by him through a friend, there is really nothing to say about the protective power, the cuirass is embossed with a fox, and it looks really beautiful, this set of prototype armor is used, and it is a real iron guy, and the whole set of armor weighs more than twenty kilograms. Of course, the actors who actually went on stage were wearing the same type of armor made of plastic.
The weapon in his hand was a spear with a length of two and a half meters, but it was not that he couldn't get a spear with an ash pole, but that the teacher heard that he was going to participate in the martial soul duel, and denied his idea of using a spear.
His martial arts teacher also has some reputation in the Beihe martial arts circle, and he once participated in the martial soul duel, but he didn't get any rankings.
The spear made of ash pole, according to the teacher, can not deal with the real master, don't look at this kind of gun elastic enough, the gun flower play round, for the real master, in fact, the elasticity of the gun itself is a kind of flaw! If the person holding the gun cannot control the elasticity of the gun, as long as he fights, he will reveal the flaw, and there is no difference between looking for death.
Of course, if you practice the big gun to the point where you can fully control the elasticity of the gun and turn it into your own help, it will be a different realm.
Anyway, Wang Hong's two strokes are far from meeting the standard of using a big gun, since this is the case, it is better to use a spear that is easier to control.
Before leaving, the teacher's teaching to him is to try to force the enemy out of the range of his spear, what spear spins around the body and flies and hovers like a dragon, it is all a showcase, giving people a good look, if the long weapon is deceived into the defensive circle by the short weapon, you can basically admit defeat, and it is not a place to show off in the martial soul.
"Try, let's go!" The referee of the martial soul duel did not stand between the two fighters like a boxing referee and announce the start. They all announced the start directly under the ring, and they would not set foot in the ring at all, after all, it was safer this way, and in the previous martial arts duel arena, the referee was not injured by mistake one or two.
Wang Hong took a deep breath, flattened the spear, pointed the tip of the spear to the waist and abdomen in the middle of the opposite body, moved step by step, raised the soles of his feet flat and moved forward, never more than an inch away from the ground, the front foot landed and stood firmly, and the back foot moved forward from the ground.
Wang Hong is quite nervous at the moment, the martial soul duel has been held for decades, although the casualty rate is not as terrible as the first and second sessions, but it has never been broken, there are dozens of martial artists every year, dead and injured in the martial soul duel, this is different from his fight in his hometown, although there are also people who are extremely ruthless in the fight, but at most it is a broken arm and leg, if someone dies, it is a big deal.
Before participating in the martial soul duel, he had signed a life and death document, and his face was calm and calm at that time, after all, his girlfriend who came to Japan with him was watching from the side, and the man didn't fall down, right?
But in such a life-threatening ring, he is really the first time to compete on stage, and now he is going to fight hard, how can he not be nervous?
He secretly encouraged himself in his heart, "Wang Hong, you can do it, the other side is just a little white face, you are definitely not as good as him as a duck, but you are definitely more powerful than you in a fight!"
Fortunately, Liu Shengyuan couldn't hear it, otherwise it would be really difficult to say whether Wang Hong would be able to stand and walk out of the ring.
Liu Shengyuan and a super handsome guy image to the ring, it is not meaningless, a few days ago the family discussed this problem, one of the solutions is to improve their popularity, the higher the popularity, the less likely to be sacrificed, so in order to improve popularity, Liu Shengyuan and Cai specially found someone to design the image, carefully dressed, and came to the competition venue.
Look at the opponent on the opposite side, even the hand holding the spear is trembling slightly, this kind of opponent, it is the first time that Liu Shengyuan and he has seen it, of course, in addition to dealing with the junior high school gangsters a few times, other people who are qualified to stand in front of Liu Shengyuan and are at least the level of an inner disciple.
The one in front of you,In addition to being a little stronger,Looking at his body shape and footwork,It's probably the level of the top three or four in the kendo club of Kangtian School Park.。
This makes Liu Shengyuan and a little embarrassed, to win beautifully, to be impressive, but also to cooperate with the opponent, if you go up is a knife, the opponent fell to the ground, winning is a neat rope, but how can it not be beautiful!
He watched boredly as his opponent approached cautiously with his spear in his hand. Liu Shengyuan and didn't even bother to pull out the knife, so they just stepped forward slowly, planning to end the game as soon as possible.
The east and west ends of the ring are ten meters long, and the two of them are facing each other, and even if they are not fast, they will soon approach each other.
Wang Hong's eyes flashed, opportunity! Regardless of whether the kid on the other side was trying to be handsome or looking down on himself, anyway, he didn't even pull out his katana, so he entered his attack range. "You're killing yourself!" Wang Hong shouted in his heart, of course, only in his heart, he didn't really shout out so thick-skinned.
Wang Hong, with normal men's natural aversion to handsome guys, stabbed his most proud blow - Zhongping Gun - Nima even Lao Tzu's girlfriend only looks at you and doesn't look at me!
The so-called 'middle level is the most difficult', the characteristics of the middle flat gun is to attack the opponent's waist and abdomen, where is the center of gravity of the human body, it is difficult to move and dodge, and that position is also very difficult to block, no matter up and down, it is possible to be stabbed before the gun is blocked out of the outer door, and it is possible to expand the wound because of the action of blocking.
"Ah————h
This is the voice of his mother Masako Nantian, hearing this voice, Yanagi Yuanhe didn't even care about making a move, and hurriedly looked back to see what happened, this is the mother who has pulled him up for fourteen years, he has never heard his mother scream in such a panic, which really made Yanagi Yuanhe startled.
Mom is panicking to stretch out her hands to herself, as if she wants to catch herself from a distance, across such a distance, Mom can only grasp in vain in the air, there seems to be tears in her eyes about to overflow, that helpless look makes Yanagi Yuanhe heart ache! Father Yanagi Kazushima pulled his mother tightly, and his eyes couldn't hide the worry.
Wang Hong felt that he was simply a dog, he stabbed out with a shot, and he was originally nine out of ten, but this distance was too close. As a result, the stupid hat on the other side actually turned his head to look at the audience at this time? Isn't this Nima ten stable?
As a result, the people looked towards the audience, but the katana in his left hand casually flicked and his spear was deflected with the hilt.
Wang Hong didn't believe in evil, and before the other party turned his head back, he collected the spear and stabbed again.
Nima was pushed away again, could it be that the other party had eyes on the back of his head?
Thorn and stab, laughter came from all around.
Wang Hong stabbed more than ten times in a row, no matter how stupid he was, he reacted, and now the sword is not out of the sheath, and the head is not returned, just one sword hilt can resist his full attack, then he is still hairy, and he doesn't know each other anymore, I am afraid that as soon as he pulls out his sword, he will kneel.
Wang Hong hurriedly jumped a step, put his spear up, prepared to say two words, and then quickly admitted defeat and stepped down.
A long rainbow suddenly rose, spanning a space of three meters, and fell straight down!
"I-" Wang Hong just popped out the word 'I', and his eyes were already full of swords.
'Nima Laozi wants to kneel, he really shouldn't make any bets with those bastards!' Wang Hong's mind only had time to turn such a thought, and he felt a chill in his chest.
"Blue side, black mask wins!Blue weapons need to be rechecked!" Wang Hong, who had his eyes closed, heard the referee announce the result, hey, he didn't seem to be in much pain?
Wang Hong opened his eyes cautiously and slowly looked down at his chest and abdomen. The iron leaf armor in front of him was neatly split in half, revealing his chest and abdomen full of chest hair.
Wang Hong hurriedly reached out and touched his chest, there was no wound, but it was okay.
He looked up at his opponent, at this time, Liu Shengyuanhe was turning around and handed the long knife in his hand to the referee, probably feeling Wang Hong's gaze, Liu Shengyuanhe glanced at him slightly, and only said: "You scared my mother, this knife is a lesson for you!"
This is a sentence of the Celestial Empire, but Wang Hong didn't have the heart to care if the other party said the Celestial Empire at this time, the excitement of escaping death made his hands and feet a little weak, especially the straps of his pants were broken, and he was about to fall.
Wang Hong hurriedly lifted his pants while going to see his girlfriend, escaped death, and now Wang Hong felt that he urgently needed comfort!
