Chapter 163: [Time Walker] Active in the Daba Star Festival (5)
[5] Yun Chengyu
(Forbidden World, Sunday, September 22, 2013, evening; School City, School District 20)
On the fourth day of the Daba Star Festival, after spending two days without sports, Yun Seung-woo ushered in the individual competition he signed up for - cold weapon fighting, which was held in the 20th school district where sports and engineering schools are concentrated.
Students in the school city have a wide variety of extracurricular activities, whether it is relatively popular kendo and fencing, or the unpopular ancient swordsmanship, European historical martial arts (HEMA), and even martial arts from China, you can find a considerable number of practitioners.
In this year's Daba Star Festival, the operating committee put all types of weapons together and held the competition according to the rules known as "infinitely close to actual combat". The protective gear and weapons worn by the players are specially made high-tech items that can not only prevent damage when hitting, but also record the location and force of the blow, and convert them into points according to a specific algorithm.
For the purpose of showing off superpowers to the outside world, as in any sport, superpowers with an interference value of less than 6 – a less stringent criterion than in the average sport – are naturally encouraged. In this way, the originally mundane fight scenes become like fantasy RPGs, full of various special effects such as fire, storm, and thunder, which is how many viewers who are not usually interested in fighting matches are attracted to it.
The final game of the group stage will be played soon. Taking advantage of the rest time, although Yun Chengyu was physically tired, his spirit did not dare to relax at all, and he stood in a pile in the posture of "Xiong Jing Bird Shen", his body rose and fell slightly, moving his small muscles everywhere, and adjusting his breathing at the same time.
Standing behind him, his hands roaming around, his [vector manipulation] ability to dissolve the lactic acid produced by the intense movement of his muscles, his white palms that seemed to be like dragonflies passing over like water, but they were better than any massage therapist's technique.
After a fifteen-minute break, Yun Chengyu's breath completely calmed down, his lower abdomen relaxed, and his legs were soft, but it was not a soft feeling of powerlessness, but like a fully relaxed bowstring, ready to re-tense at any time.
"The break is over. Yun Seungyu and Saki Nishio are invited to enter the arena. ”
"Come on!" Fang Tong patted him on the shoulder.
Walking into the empty arena, Yun Chengyu secretly looked at Saki Nishio, who was standing opposite. Now that neither of them had put on their protective helmets, the girl in front of him looked very cold, with long black shawl hair tied into a crisp ponytail, and her eyes were clear and sharp.
According to the observation of one party, Saki Nishio is a good player with a swift sword, and has defeated all the players who play against her with pure sword skills, including a Level 3 ability, and her own ability has not yet been exposed, and her strength is undoubted.
The swift sword, a one-handed sword with a length of about one meter to one meter three, can be said to be a cold weapon specially designed for duels, and the heads-up is brought to the extreme, and the protection of the fingers and wrists by the handguards is very good - this makes it difficult for Huaxia swordsmanship to use a lot of techniques to point hands and wrists, and the relatively low center of gravity makes the controller's change of moves extremely fast.
In contrast, the Han sword used by Yun Chengyu to perform the Daomen swordsmanship not only has a disadvantage in attack distance, but also the short sword grid puts forward higher requirements for the user's "sticky sword" and other fine techniques. From the perspective of pure weapon fighting, Saki Nishio, who wields a swift sword, is indeed a difficult opponent.
Aside from the slight disadvantage of the blade, which can be compensated for by the divine consciousness that mutates after condensing the [Void Primordial], and the ability of [Time Shift], Yun Chengyu is more worried about the unknown ability that the other party has never used - if she is not Level 0. He hasn't forgotten that this is a school city, and nearly half of the students have their own superpowers.
"The game is about to start, please wear protective gear for both players. ”
Yun Chengyu put on his helmet as he said, and walked into the prepared position with the specially made Han sword for this competition. To his surprise, Saki Nishio, who had been using a single-handled swift sword before, was equipped with another short sword in his left hand this time, apparently seeing him as a fierce opponent.
The combination of short sword defense blocking, sword grid control of enemy swords, and long sword stabbing attack is undoubtedly extremely challenging for Yun Chengyu, who is not good at dual-wielding weapons.
"Game on!"
The voice fell, Yun Chengyu bowed his body, jumped out lightly, and pointed at the tip of his opponent's sword and struck directly at the lower end of his sword-holding right hand. Saki Nishio's weapon has a length advantage, and he must take the initiative to get close to him in order to have a good chance of winning.
Nishio Saki took a sideways step unhurriedly, accompanied by the block of the short sword in his left hand to the outside, and the swift sword of his right hand stabbed out under Yun Chengyu's mask. But Yun Chengyu was already making a false move, and as soon as the sword momentum was closed, he drew a circle and sealed the circle, pushed away the tip of the sword that stabbed over, and then stepped up again to approach the other party!
But Nishio Saki didn't let it, and the long sword that was initially controlled in his right hand was sent forward, biting Yun Chengyu's sword body with a complicated and exquisite sword grid, and then twisting his waist, moving his hips, and kicking his hind legs in one go, and the short sword in his left hand stabbed out, straight to the back of his right hand holding the sword - if it was a real duel, it would be to abolish his hand at once!
Although the short sword is usually used to defend and block, in actual combat, opportunities are fleeting, and they can also be used to attack at the right time!
At the last moment, the ability of [Time Speed Change] was launched silently, and in more than double the time, Yun Chengyu's center of gravity was like mercury, flowing freely, and he suddenly retreated half a step back to the side, standing the sword and sinking his wrist, and the muscles and muscles of the wrist, elbow, and shoulder were coordinated, like a taut rubber band, and then suddenly it was loosened, slightly knotted, followed by the middle section, and the root section urged, driving the tip of the sword to collapse forward suddenly, and the force carried out the blade, directly collapsing the short sword of Nishio Saki.
At this moment, the Han sword in Yun Chengyu's hand seemed to come to life, like a green dragon going to sea, implying the meaning of wrapping and wrapping, but the body was as light as a feather, attached to the sword and moved with it, which really responded to the sentence "The immortal makes the sword like a dragon". Under the combined effect of body technique, swordsmanship, and time ability, his sword was just handed over, and the tip stabbed in front of Nishio Saki, and the difference in body position of one and a half steps seemed to exist at all.
With the sound of the score signal of "drop", Yun Chengyu and Saki Nishio each retreated to their prepared positions. In just a few seconds of confrontation, in the eyes of outsiders, it may not be as good as Er'er, and it is not at all comparable to those battles with flames and electric special effects, but the danger is only known to the two of them. Attack, counterattack, false moves, and ability to launch, all rely on the sense of battle between lightning and fire, and do not allow the slightest distraction!
"If she has superpowers, she should use them next time. ”
Yun Chengyu thought so, concentrating on the unknown abilities that might appear. Up to now. His [Time Shifting] ability is only used to accelerate itself, and under the mainstream view that "time ability does not exist", it is easy to misinterpret it as the ability to stimulate motor potential by manipulating the electrical signals of body cells. He doesn't intend to reveal the true face of his abilities too soon unless he has to.
The second round of encounters begins. In this game, Yun Chengyu still attacked first - the opponent's weapon was already a little longer, and if he defended passively, there would always be mistakes, so it was better to take the initiative to win a chance to win. However, as he swooped forward, Saki Nishio had enough time to react, and the tip of his sword was already facing him, as if ready to stab straight at any moment.
Then, unexpectedly, Yun Chengyu suddenly felt a condensed strong wind squeezing the protective suit, the skin on his chest seemed to be pricked by needles, and the pores suddenly contracted, followed by a strong tingling sensation. With a "drop", the system judged that the damage of the attack was valid, and the referee stretched out a plastic stick and signaled the two to separate and return to their original positions.
That was the ...... Sword Qi?Yun Chengyu couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. No, sword qi is such a thing, only Huaxia's martial arts have, and it is not something that can be done by simply cultivating martial arts, and the martial arts method of entering the Dao also conflicts with the development of superpowers, and the other party is unlikely to have the ability to emit sword qi. So, is it some kind of superpower that manipulates the air or creates shockwaves?
The third round of encounters soon resumed. Yun Chengyu kept an eye on it this time, refining Qi and transforming the gods, and the keen divine consciousness brought by the condensation of the [Void Primordial Stone] of the "October Pregnancy" unfolded, just like a god three feet above his head opened his eyes, taking in the formless and colorless "sword qi".
If you let it go, he can also send out sword energy, and the edge is even worse than the previous attack;But that's the cultivation of the Daomen.,In the base camp of the scientific side of the school city.,Even if you get a legal visa.,The identity of the disciple of the Daomen is above board.,It's better not to be exposed to the public.。
The first to attack this time was Saki Nishio. The unpretentious straight stab, the swift sword of more than one meter plus the sword qi, it was clear that he was bullying Yun Chengyu The length of the blade was not as good as his own.
Facing the tip of the sword that stabbed over, Yun Chengyu's heart was like a mirror, and the outgoing divine sense reflected the trajectory of the sword in his heart, not retreating at the moment, but advancing, double the time to accelerate, a style of "clearing the clouds and seeing the sun", the long sword in his hand crossed a delicate arc, washed away the enemy's sword qi, and then stepped up and wiped his throat, Nishio Saki had no chance to react at all!
The sound of the score decision sounded unsurprisingly. Since Yun Chengyu has been forced out of the ability of [Time Shift], he simply exerts it to his heart's content. In the face of the power of time, any martial arts technique is extremely fragile.
In the next few rounds of confrontation, Nishio Saki faced a strange body method like "shrinking the ground into inches", and the swift sword and the ability similar to "sword qi" could not hit at all, and Yun Chengyu won points again and again.
"The game is over, the winner: Yun Chengyu!"
