Chapter 23 23
Earth time: May 7 clear
The sky is very clear, and the weather in China on Earth has begun to show signs of warming up in early May, although it is not as good as midsummer, but it also makes people feel that the temperature of the skin is rising. I'm a person who is relatively poor in heat resistance, and this has always been the case on the earth, so whenever the temperature starts to rise, I will move the place where I write my diary from the sunny side to the dark place, so that it can at least calm my mind a little, and remember that in that world the mention of mid-May already makes people sweat, but fortunately in that world I can protect myself with qi, although I can't avoid the sun's rays, at least I can resist the rising temperature.
And on that day, it was not only the weather that was hot, but also the bloody stories that had to be told in the arena.
Otherworldly time: Sunny afternoon on May 15
The weather is unusually hot, if I hadn't changed into summer clothes and learned how to weaken the temperature of the weather with qi, otherwise I would have found a dark and ventilated place to live until the end of summer, although the climate of this world is similar to the earth, but the changes in the months are very obvious, the summer is long and the winter is short, the spring is more and the autumn is less.
But at the moment, I really don't have time to care about the weather, but rather compared to the tense and scorching atmosphere on the field, the natural weather is nothing.
Yesterday's fight between me and Huang Tianhao didn't seem to have much impact on them, it didn't cause any shock to their hearts, but it inspired their fighting hearts in reverse, and when I stepped into the arena, when the host began to announce the start of the game, I was startled by the dozens of people who rushed in for a while.
Out of embarrassment, Zhao Bin and Yaoguang automatically gave up the competition, and my ranking immediately changed a lot, but the others didn't have much friendship with me.
But even so, I was also prepared in my heart, and I resolutely rushed forward in the face of dozens of people.
Since there was no requirement for third-year students to participate in the competition, they cheered hard as they were in the audience.
I fought against the students who were constantly on stage, and I forgot the time and the tiredness. Although a life and death contract was signed, everyone knew that it was just a measure to deal with accidents, if it was really killed, he would definitely be punished like me, except for Huang Tianhao's boldness, no one really dared to take this kind of risk.
Although each person's shot is very heavy, if they perceive that the other party has lost their combat effectiveness, they will also divide the victory and defeat and no longer make up the sword. The same is true for me, although the number of first and second grades sounds like a lot, but through my observations, I found that most of them have basically not passed the realm of the Void Divine Objects, the first grade is generally like this, and most of the second grade Imperial Objects are at the peak, but their combat power is relatively not to be feared.
Since it was a challenge, there was no one-on-one rule, so many students who were not strong began to form groups to fight me.
At the beginning, they were all first-graders, and when they came up, they shouted that they would let me step down immediately, and they were very angry, but the result was that I was put down by all of them in a few moves, lost their combat effectiveness, and they were obediently carried off the stage by others.
This is a good start, and it also gives me a little more confidence, but I don't careless, but take every fight more seriously, when I stand in the middle of the field, surrounded by a group of people, I have a feeling in my heart that I can't open a husband, and the fighting spirit is even stronger. Among them were magicians from the Western Campus, and there were also cultivators from the Eastern Campus, but as the battle continued and the number of enemies and combat power continued to rise, I became more and more excited.
However, things are not as Yaoguang said before, because I messed up the rankings of the arena, now everyone wants to fight with me, and no one cares about such things as rankings for a while.
However, the calmness of wandering under the pressure of the enemy, the thrill of shuttling through the fierce flames of war, and the sense of accomplishment of defeating the opponent made me want to stop.
"Unbelievable!! In just one morning, two hundred people have been defeated, and they are currently ranked 800th! "The host's passionate commentary has not entered my ears, although there are many 200 people, it has been calculated that one-fifth has passed, but it is still a long way to go compared to the complete victory.
After I stunned the first-graders in front of me with a sword, I flicked my sword casually and found that a large number of students had already come up around me, and there were more than 100 people around me.
And through my observation, I found that the strength of these more than 100 people was obviously different from the previous ones, the speed of qi flowing in the body was stable, and the breath was uniform, obviously there was a certain amount of cultivation, which made me pay more careful attention to their changes.
Most of the mages in the Western Campus that I've defeated so far are long-range, and they are all relatively newcomers, and they are not good at physical training, and their defense is weak, so the only tricky thing is that they can release long-range magic and directional immobilization magic, and avoid their dense firepower. As soon as they get close, they are generally incapacitated, and even if some of them use protective magic, they will all be broken by my sword, announcing their defeat.
The most troublesome are the students of the Eastern Campus, both near and far offensive, and most of them are Imperial Masters, many of them use weapons or puppets made of real metal to replace the battle, usually injected with qi as a protective shield, although it is not to the point of being free of monsters, but it also takes a certain amount of strength to cut it.
Because it's a challenge, there's no break in the middle, and even if it's noon, you have to keep facing the battle, and as an ordinary person, you've been taking on all kinds of challenges all morning, and you've already surpassed your limits and even lost your life if you're not careful. But cultivators are different, they have to adapt to this kind of battle, and I have already been abused by the Jade King from meditation thousands of times during the time I was in the Forbidden Mountain.
The meditation method used by ordinary practitioners only cultivates the spirit and qi, not the physical body, but the mental method passed on to me by the Jade King seems to be able to refine the physical body while cultivating the spirit.
I didn't expect this kind of golden finger to appear in online novels to be obtained by the Jade King, so it was passed on to me.
In the face of the students who kept rushing up, I was alone, with a sword, a heart, a thought, and one go.
"Fireball Technique!!"
"Ice Spirit!!
"Wind Blade!!"
"Tsuchiyama !!"
"Thunder Burst!!"
“......”
The mages who kept shouting the names of their skills were throwing the whole hall into chaos, and I was on the lookout for ambushes from the students of the Eastern Campus while avoiding them.
In the crowd, I brandished my sword and shouted to kill, dodged in dense fire, swam among sharp and deadly blades, and felt the thrilling thrill in each opponent.
The more I dealt with the students behind me, the more fierce the battle became, and even from the third round, I was injured to varying degrees, but I still didn't stop my steps, and I didn't give up the sword in my hand and my heart.
Because I know that, in addition to the mission and the agreement with the school, more importantly, there are still people waiting for me to go back, and I can't face her as a loser, which is a promise I made in my heart.
I slammed my sword into the ground, my hands attached to the hilt of the sword, although my body was shaky, I still gritted my teeth and held on to the heavy body that was about to fall and gasped, reached out to wipe the sweat from my forehead, I was relieved to see the students I defeated in the fifth round on the embarrassed field fell one by one in the arena, I chuckled at the corner of my mouth, although the non-stop fighting made my body start to weaken, the speed of swinging the sword was also slowing down, and the speed of reaction was gradually slowing down, but at least I had not fallen.
But I know my own state very well, because now I am already very reluctant to maintain my body without using qi to form a sword shape, and if I fight again, I can't guarantee that I will not be defeated. But to do this is to tell the others that I can fight again, and I haven't lost yet! More importantly, I can't be defeated!
I forgot how much time had passed, only to look up to the sky and see that the clouds in the sky had begun to turn red, the heat of the sun felt by my skin had also been reduced by a few points, and the shouts in the arena in my ears had changed from the original boiling lane to only scattered shouts, and the number of people in the audience had also been reduced by more than half from the beginning to full, except for the silent third-grade area, only a few people in the first and second grades were still shouting.
"Oh yo!! Our dark horse, Beidou Yaichi, actually carried the sixth round of offensive, and now his ranking is actually the third and first place!! Unbelievable! It's only the first day that he has defeated 700 students, this is really from what I know, the first person since the establishment of the school to challenge 700 students in a row without defeat, not to mention a one-on-one group, whether he can survive to the end today or not, he has created a legend in the school!! Maybe it's because he shouted for a day, so even if the responsible commentator wants to stay excited, he can't hide his hoarse voice: "But we saw that the Big Dipper was already tired early in the morning, and the sword in the form of gasification also tended to be nothing, and sure enough, even those who could fight could not withstand the attack from seven hundred people, obviously the current state of the Big Dipper Night One will be more difficult to face the next battle, but fortunately, there is a time limit for every day of the competition, Maybe Beidou Ye will end today's schedule as soon as he needs to face the last round of battle, and whether he can resist today's last round of attack, let's wait and see! ”。
I scanned the audience and saw that no one was shouting at this time, let alone shouting, because I had carried the attack again, and my efforts and fights had only made them fully recognize and face it up to now.
The atmosphere in the arena suddenly became strange and solemn, and even more than a thousand people in the third grade still had hostile and contemptuous eyes, which made me breathless, but I still had to resist, and I still couldn't fall.
I pulled out my last hole card, the card, from my pocket.
During my confinement, I also learned about my cards, which can only be used once after being injected, which is my killer feature and my last hole card. And last night, I learned a new direction about my cards, and these were all conveyed to me by the cards, although I didn't understand the mystery, but at least it was enough to solve the problem in front of me.
"Looks like I have to use it" I clutched the card tightly, I had a plan in my mind, yes, yes, if I had done this in the first place, maybe I would have ended this pointless battle a long time ago, but, just now, I wanted to prove that I had to get an answer.
Is that really getting stronger?
Do I really have what it takes to protect those around me?
I don't know, but I do know only that when I take out my card, it means that I have reached my limit.
"It's a shame, but I have to win," I muttered to myself, then reached out my hand holding the cards, pointed to the most positions in the first and second grades, and shouted, "My time is running out!" All of you rest of you are on it! ”
After I shouted, the commentary also came to the spirit, and the voice suddenly raised: "Oh yo!! Hokuto Yaichi actually provoked everyone left at this time! I don't know whether to praise him for his courage or to say that his suicidal provocation is a kind of abandonment."
And the audience after being provoked by me also suddenly erupted, especially the first and second grade people who were still sitting in their seats to observe, all of them couldn't sit still, and they shouted and cursed in the audience.
"Crazy, right? Let's all go together at this time?! ”
"That's it, it's not a small tone! Do you know who the rest are? ”
"I think he's bragging, and he's ready to break the jar, right?!"
"It's just in the early stage of chemical matter, and it's still a general thing, what ability can I have?"
"But being able to resist the attack of 700 people is indeed not to be underestimated, and it cannot be sloppy."
"yes, there must be a scam in it"
"What's the matter, those hundreds of people are nothing more than miscellaneous fish, what's there to talk about?!"
There was a lot of talk among them, and although only a few were analyzing why I was doing what I was doing, most of them were easily provoked by me to stand in the audience and fight with me.
Although I heard their various chatters, I ignored them, but scanned the crowd again and continued to shout, "What? There are only 300 people left, so if you let you go together, you will only sit in the audience and quarrel and shout with me?! I don't think it's 300 students, it's 300 seeds!! Coward!! ”
"Hey, my temper! You wait! ”
"Who are you talking about cowards?! Boy, you wait, I'll let you know it's amazing! ”
In the end, my words still provoked a large number of impulsive students to rush to the field, after all, they were still young and impulsive. I rejoiced in my heart.
But I want more than that, it's not enough, there are still people in the audience who are not moved by my provocation, I want all of them to come in, even those who are sitting together are Huang Tianhao's dog legs have not moved yet, they are also looking at me coldly, as if waiting for the last chance, to wear down my strength, and completely eradicate me when I finally dry up.
I didn't move for a while, and I wouldn't give them this opportunity, ignoring these people who were in the past and who I scorned and hated, but continued to shout, "What? Are the rest of the people rubbish that dare not be touched?? I can tell you that if you hesitate you may miss the opportunity to defeat me in the end, and if you fail to defeat me this time, I can guarantee that all of you will be at my feet next time!! ”
My words were simple, but I was more aware of the concerns of those who seemed to be watching calmly, and I used them to threaten them and force them to join in.
As I expected, the rest of the people in the audience eventually rushed to the arena, and the doglegs finally couldn't hold back.
I dodged the students who were rushing at me and threw the cards into the air.
When the door formed in the air, revealing half of the silver lotus, I smiled at everyone.
"Not good!! Sure enough, there is a fraud! One of the clever men noticed the change and suddenly shouted.
But it was too late, and I couldn't laugh at them in my heart, but I laughed at them for being too young.
Then I heard a loud bang in the arena again, and a white light in front of me.
"It's amazing!!!!! Just one day!! Just one day!! He accomplished a feat unprecedented since the founding of the school!!! He went from the lowest challenger to the fifteenth place in the rankings, and he hit nearly a thousand people in one day!! Now ranked sixteenth! It is the first place except for the ten masters and ten candidates for the top 10!! But his journey is not over yet, because from tomorrow he will face the Ten Masters Candidate and the Ten Masters in turn to complete the contract with the school, we don't know if he will be able to complete the contract, but at least today even I have expectations for him! ”
The buzzing ears came the host's exciting commentary, and some of the polite words and exciting words that the commentators behind him often said were ignored by me, because now I just want to go back, because there are still people waiting for me, and my battle is not finished as the host said, everything is not over, I can't fall yet.
I ignored the noisy third-graders and the presenter, and dragged my heavy body off the stage on my own.
I saw a figure waiting for me at the door, and the smile she showed at me swept away all the tiredness and pain.
At the same time I also told myself, yes, at least today, I won.
