Chapter 9: Tempering
Zhao Xingchen slashed out a sword at an extremely fast speed! For the current Zhao Xingchen, this sword is already almost to the extreme, and it is a sword that he wields with all his might.
At this moment, time seemed to stop, and Hu Peng's face was full of malicious smiles, as if he was about to see Zhao Xingchen's head flying, perhaps because of the excitement or because of the upcoming victory.
Taishan has already climbed the martial arts platform for a distance, only to see him lean forward and stride forward, it can be seen that his speed is not slow and very fast, but far from the rescue, at this moment his face is full of worry and despair.
The expressions of the classmates were different, from the initial surprise Hu Peng suddenly made a move, and gradually evolved into those who were looking forward to it, and those who were excited, most of them still couldn't bear it and didn't dare to look at it, and many female students subconsciously closed their eyes or covered their mouths.
Zhao Xingchen's forehead was covered with cold sweat, this was completely a move he subconsciously made, and the speed was completely the ultimate he could do now, if he couldn't make a contribution, he would immediately be in a different place, and he even felt a cold sword blade on the skin of his neck.
Time continued, the sword in Hu Peng's hand could touch the skin of Zhao Xingchen's neck, but after that, he could no longer move forward, Zhao Xingchen felt the cold touch of the skin on his neck in contact with the sword.
Hu Peng's right arm continued to exert force, but the sword in his hand could no longer be cut down, and the next moment Hu Peng's arm suddenly broke from the middle, one arm holding the sword was separated from the body, and the other arm connected to the body was as bloody as a column, because of inertia Hu Peng's body drove only half of the arm to continue to move to one side, because the distance between the two was relatively close, and the blood spurted out of Hu Peng's broken arm was sprayed on Zhao Xingchen's face and clothes, which looked just as terrifying.
The sword that originally touched Zhao Xingchen's neck, together with Hu Peng's broken arm at this time, fell weakly, and the sword body fell weakly to Zhao Xingchen's shoulder, and then slowly rolled down to the ground against Zhao Xingchen's arm.
"Bang bangββ, bang!" The sword and the severed arm landed on the ground, making a sound that broke the tension and silence that had always existed.
Zhao Xingchen covered his chest with his left hand and gasped for breath, he was afraid for a while, he was afraid that he had broken through in battle, and his swordsmanship had reached the extreme that he could swing now, otherwise he would definitely confess here today, and he almost became the protagonist of the fastest death.
"Ahββ, my hand? My hand....... Hu Peng looked at his only remaining severed arm, and yelled indiscriminately, as if he had lost his mind.
He calculated in every possible way, but in the end he didn't hurt the other party at all, but he lost an arm, and he was already confident and arrogant.
"Xingchen, are you alright?" Taishan finally rushed to Zhao Xingchen's side, asked with concern, and looked at Zhao Xingchen's neck, and when he saw only a shallow white mark, he gradually relaxed his heart.
"I'm fine!" Zhao Xingchen looked at Mount Tai and said. At this time, the two suddenly heard a messy footsteps, like a group of people rushing towards this side, and their eyes turned to the source of the sound.
"If you dare to cut someone's arm on the martial arts platform and hurt your classmates, we have to let the school punish you!" Before anyone arrived, someone in the crowd shouted.
Zhao Xingchen calmly looked at these people who boarded the martial arts platform, and he didn't need to think about it to know that these people were Hu Peng's fox friends and dogs.
Taishan took a step, blocked the middle between Zhao Xingchen and the crowd, protected Zhao Xingchen behind him, and then shouted to the crowd: "This is a duel, a duel is to take life in Bo, not to mention Peng's last move is clearly to take Xingchen's life." β
"Who said it was a duel, we have so many people who prove that it is a martial fight, Taishan and Zhao are fools, you just wait for the punishment of the Academic Affairs Office......." The crowd chatted in a mess, but eventually it slowly became quiet.
I saw Taishan reach above his shoulders with both hands, draw out the two spears on his back, hold one of the spears in each hand, and dock them together in front of him.
"Brush ββ!" Taishan waved a shot at will, there was a sound of breaking wind, holding the gun in his right hand, the tip of the gun pointed obliquely at the ground, and there was a horizontal knife immediately.
"I, Taishan, am a ninth-level combat power, and now I am challenging all of you at the same time in the form of a duel, do you dare to fight?" Tarzan yelled at everyone with a fierce look in his eyes, and finally pointed his gun at everyone.
"Do you dare to fight?" A few words echoed in the martial arts arena for a long time, and no one in the crowd answered. When the spear was pointed, everyone subconsciously took a step back.
Just kidding, fighting with Taishan, a guy with natural divine powers, is no different from looking for death, do you know how heavy the spear in his hand is, 365 pounds, even if he is not stabbed, he will be crippled if he is not dead if he is hit on the body.
At this time, Mount Tai has a big husband and a husband, and he can't open the posture.
The scene fell silent for a while.
At this time, the staff of the martial arts arena finally arrived, and stood between the two parties and shouted loudly: "Now I announce that Zhao Xingchen won today's battle, as for Hu Peng's deliberate sneak attack to take people's lives, I will truthfully report to the Academic Affairs Office, and wait for the school leaders to decide." β
Then the staff looked at the group of people who came for Hu Peng: "Since you are Hu Peng's friends, why don't you send him to the medical room quickly, even if you connect your arm when it's late, I'm afraid it will be useless, and you are still in the mood to reverse right and wrong here!" Did it work? β
"Yes, yes,...... The teacher is taught! The crowd said babblingly, then looked at Hu Peng, only to notice that Hu Peng had fainted and fallen to the ground. Several people hurriedly lifted Hu Peng to the outside of the martial arts arena, and at the same time took away a severed arm of Hu Peng, ready to pick it up, but the sword was still tightly held in his hand and could only be taken away.
Zhao Xingchen said thank you to the staff, and then walked off the martial arts platform with Taishan and left the martial arts arena.
The protagonist and the latter participants leave one after another, but the crowd is reluctant to disperse for a long time, as if they are reminiscing.
Before the competition began, no one would have thought that it would be such a result, one was the fierce and aggressive little overlord Hu Peng, and the other was a little person with only two levels of spiritual power and no combat effectiveness, most of them still don't know his name, only know that many people call him a fool.
Originally, there would be no suspense about the result, everyone is here to find excitement, to see someone being abused and bleeding, and now only blood can stimulate everyone's nerves. As a result, someone was really abused and bled out, but it was completely the opposite of what he thought.
And the guy who was called a fool, the defense was perfect, it was just textbook teaching, and it was evocative.
"Taishan, I want to go out of the city to temper myself, what can you do?" Walking on the road, Zhao Xingchen suddenly said to Taishan.
For going out of the city, Zhao Xingchen was well thought out, although Youling used his spiritual power to hone his combat skills, but if he didn't move and didn't participate in the actual battle, his final progress would be limited. Only by going out and facing the danger that comes at any time can it be possible to truly break through yourself.
Taishan looked at Zhao Xingchen in surprise, saw the determined gaze in his eyes, and thought of Zhao Xingchen's combat power today, and then said: "I'll go back to the mercenary group in a while, please ask our head to see if we can find a suitable task to take you out of the city together." β
ββββββ
Steel Fortress, Zhao Xingchen turned into a mecha and calmly waited for the arrival of the tentacle worm.
This was the first time in a week that Zhao Xingchen had reopened the battlefield simulation for Ling Ling. Since combat is the foundation of increasing combat power, you can't participate in actual combat for the time being, so you can only pass the simulation first.
When the tentacles of the twelve tentacles attacked, Zhao Xingchen, who was incarnated as a mecha, waved the sword in the hand of the mecha and instantly cut off all the tentacles that attacked.
Immediately after more tentacles attacked, Zhao Xingchen swung his sword again and again, and soon Zhao Xingchen was surrounded by tentacle insects, and the tentacle insects on his body gathered more and more, after all, there was only one mecha, and there were too many tentacles.
"Polar Storm!" When the mecha was about to be covered by tentacle insects, Zhao Xingchen shouted violently, and used the Extreme Wind Sixth Form, and the mecha engine roared.
But in the end, the mecha only rotated less than ninety degrees, and it could be stopped, and the engine turned off, because the speed of Zhao Xingchen's sword could not catch up with the speed of the mecha itself's rotation, which made the mecha bear too much resistance, so the power was insufficient and the follow-up was weak.
Ling calculated that the engine of the first-generation mecha could push the mecha to rotate at most once, and at the same time, it had to cut out at least 520 swords before it could fully cooperate with the mecha to use the Extreme Wind Storm.
When Zhao Xingchen's extreme wind storm stopped, the gap that had just been cut out was immediately covered by a large number of tentacle insects. The engine power cannot support the second use of the Polar Storm, and the system automatically declares the mission a failure.
Time inadvertently, nine days passed. In ten days, all the students of Zhao Xingchen and Taishan will graduate from middle school, or go directly to the interstellar society to become a low-level person, or join the army to participate in the war, or join the mercenary group and become ordinary mercenaries to participate in the adventure. Of course, the best option is to be able to enter a first-class university in the stars, graduate from college in a few years, and get a good position no matter where you go.
On this day, Taishan found Zhao Xingchen and told him that he could follow the mercenary group out of the city as a deputy, because Zhao Xingchen had not yet registered as a mercenary and would not be incorporated into the mercenary group. Mercenary points are also not available.
ββββββ
Inside the steel fortress, Zhao Xingchen's incarnation mecha was once again completely covered by tentacle insects.
"Extreme Wind Storm, Breaking ββ!" Zhao Xingchen shouted, and the mecha instantly rotated 360 degrees in place, and Zhao Xingchen couldn't calculate how many swords he swung out at this moment.
Time slowed down, and in an instant, all the twelve tentacle insects were separated and cut into countless pieces, and the next moment, all the tentacle insects that were cut into countless pieces quickly fell, and the feet of the mecha were covered with thick tentacle corpse fragments.
Immediately after the giant sickle insect attacked, a sickle insect brandished its sickle weapon and stabbed towards the mecha, and Zhao Xingchen raised his sword to resist.
"Bell-" The sword and scythe in the mecha's hand collided, and there was no sound of flesh, only the sound of steel resonating.
This was not expected by Zhao Xingchen, after all, the sickle of the sickle insect was harder than the hardest metal on earth.
Zhao Xingchen didn't stop the movement in his hand, and the sword body reversed and slashed towards the neck of the sickle insect.
The underside of the scythe's neck is muscled flesh, which has little defense, and although there is a hard shell on the back that can evolve, the hardness is far from that of a scythe weapon.
Sure enough, a huge scythe insect's head rose into the sky, and the huge body of the scythe insect without a head also fell to the ground.
At this time, several giant sickle insects attacked at the same time wielding huge scythes, and Zhao Xingchen could only resist with all his strength, and the laser blade in his hand struggled to hold several attacking sickle weapons.
The scythe weapon was blocked, the neck of the giant sickle insect was completely exposed, Zhao Xingchen did not hesitate to raise the super machine gun in his left hand and fired at the neck of the giant sickle insect without hesitation, and suddenly the yellow flesh fat flew sideways, and the necks of several giant sickle insects were completely broken, and the huge body of the sickle insect fell to the ground, and at the same time, more sickle weapons stabbed at the back, directly penetrating the body of the giant mecha.
