Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Athletic Contest (Part II)
Shen Fangli, who won the first fight, successfully entered the next round, she checked her body in the tent where the contestants rested, but fortunately she only suffered a minor injury, and she was fine, and she was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief for the rest of the time.
In order to see the next game more clearly, Shen Fangli found a closer position to sit down, and by watching the game, she could know what the characteristics of her next opponent were, and then formulate corresponding tactics to deal with it.
"You did a good job, I thought you'd lose the game. Mu Yunxi was holding two popsicles in his hand, and he handed one of them to Shen Fangli, "But the next opponent will become more and more powerful, and you have to continue to work hard." โ
Shen Fangli obviously didn't pay attention to Mu Yunxi's words, she stared blankly at the competition between the two archers and boys in the ring, and slowly tore open the bag of popsicles with both hands, until Mu Yunxi waved her hand in front of her eyes, she came back to her senses from her daze and said, "What are you doing?"
"I want to ask you what you're thinking? Did you listen to what I had to say? โ
"That's not the point. โ
"Then what's the point?" Mu Yunxi asked rhetorically.
"Oops, I'm thinking about what you said to Long Yanchu when I was knocked to the ground by Long Yanchu during the competition just now. Shen Fangli stared at him, and her attitude became a little scared, "When did I become your woman, do you always speak so thoughtlessly? โ
"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to, but I really couldn't think of any way to help you at the time, so I made this decision, and I will definitely explain it to them at that time. Mu Yunxi put his hands together, put them on his head and kept apologizing to Shen Fangli, "I know that you will say that I am stupid and can't explain clearly, but I also have to do it as a last resort." โ
In other words, your words are not sincere. โ
"Well, that's understandable. Mu Yunxi touched his head and smirked to hide his nervousness, he pointed to the popsicle in Shen Fangli's hand, "Be careful! โ
Hearing Mu Yunxi say this, Shen Fangli reacted, she hurriedly took the popsicle in her mouth before the juice melted from the popsicle flowed, and the cool air emitted by the popsicle spread from the tip of her tongue to her head, and her brain, which was so hot and swollen because she cared about Mu Yunxi's words, was cooled down.
The remaining three players of the C class of the spell department gradually appeared in the next game, and Tang Xuancheng faced a very handsome boy, although he was handsome, but his cultivation was really not very good, and he was defeated by Tang Xuancheng with a thunderbolt in a few rounds. Duan Ruoxian's battle was a girl with extremely strong physical skills, but the opponent's immunity to combat skills was very weak, and she was blown out of the ring by the hurricane summoned by Duan Ruoxian with a spell ball. Only the female player who fought against Duan Ruoyin was evenly matched with her, but Duan Ruoyin took advantage of her carelessness and kicked her weapon to the ground.
In the finale, it was Liu Yuhan's turn to appear, and there was no suspense in the game, because her opponent abstained directly before she took the stage, which made her a little unhappy, and blamed her fan group for creating an aura that was too strong, and the opponent was shocked and frightened before she entered the ring.
Shen Fangli is very envious of Liu Yuhan's popularity among students, but she is also a foreigner, but she is always looked down upon by a few students.
The second day of the competition ended in a loud noise, all the top 16 players in the three grades were produced, nearly half of the schedule has passed, and the remaining three days, the competition will be more intense, first the quarterfinals, then the semifinals, and the last day is the finals.
After each day's competition, friends would invite Shen Fangli to dinner at the Snow Dove Restaurant, and the four girls often had a small meeting over dinner. But today, Shen Fangli suggested that they invite Liu Yuhan over.
Originally, Liu Yuhan was their main opponent, and the three of them were reluctant to invite her over, but for the sake of Shen Fangli's face, the three of them nodded and agreed.
It's just that what everyone didn't expect was that Mu Yunxi also took the opportunity to follow, saying that he was going to provide guidance to several girls present as a tactical adviser this time, looking at his clumsy gesture, Shen Fangli could only shake his head helplessly, but there was nothing he could do.
Under the guidance of Mu Yunxi's layman, several girls lost one after another, and the string sisters were both eliminated in the quarterfinals, and the opponent was above her in all aspects, she persevered for about 20 minutes, and lost because there were more black dots on her clothes than the other party. Duan Ruoyin was attacked by her opponent because of her light enemy, and the opponent's fierce attack shattered her spell balls, she was annoyed and ashamed, but she could only swallow the bitter fruit of defeat. Then there was Tang Xuantang, who was very unconvinced when she shot down her weapon with a clear foul disarming curse but was awarded the victory, and she appealed the result of the match after the match, but the tournament committee rejected her request.
Shen Fangli was surprisingly lucky, first her opponent in the quarterfinals was unable to participate due to illness, and her opponent in the semifinals was banned for malicious fouls. She made it to the finals in a daze.
In the finals, Shen Fangli's opponent was Liu Yuhan, and Shen Fangli won due to various luck components, Liu Yuhan's promotion road relied on her own strength, especially in the semifinals, she was able to reverse her opponent and win the victory under the unfavorable situation that she was about to lose the game.
For Shen Fangli, she is already very satisfied to be able to enter the finals, at least she has fulfilled her promise before participating in the competition, defended the dignity of the Wei family, she won the respect of the students with her actions, at first as long as she appeared in the competition, there would be a small number of students cheering, but when everyone witnessed her reaching the finals, it was a thunderous cheer.
So even if Shen Fangli loses to Liu Yuhan in the finals, she will also be happy for her friends, Liu Yuhan has made a promise that if she wins the championship, she will definitely use the prize money won in the competition to invite her to play in Panhu City, if Shen Fangli wins, she will be treated to a treat, and the result will be the same anyway.
Just when the two girls were arguing about who would win and who would have a treat, the night before the finals, it was Mu Yunxi who paid out of his pocket, and he called the two girls to the snow dove restaurant for dinner, saying that the three of them hadn't sat down and chatted for a long time.
That night, Lan Yifan was also invited to the restaurant for dinner, and she affirmed the growth of her three children, and praised Shen Fangli, in her opinion, she was not only the guardian of her three children, but also acted as a friend and teacher.
The three of them also like this female dean very much, especially Shen Fangli, who has lost her mother since she was a child, and sometimes she almost regards Lan Yifan as her mother.
Lan Yifan noticed that the other three girls in Shen Fangli's class did not come, she asked Shen Fangli for the reason, and Shen Fangli told her that the three of them had lost the game and were not in a good mood to come to dinner, and after the finals, she would find another opportunity to comfort them.
Returning to the college's girls' dormitory from the Snow Dove Cafeteria, Shen Fangli found that she didn't need to worry at all, and all three roommates recovered from the loss, and congratulated her on successfully entering the finals, saying that on the day of the finals, the whole class would come to cheer for her.
The words of her roommates unloaded Shen Fangli's ideological baggage, and on the day of the finals, she felt more relaxed than she had ever been, and even the commentary that Ye Xuanlu tired her of on weekdays sounded extremely kind.
"Handsome guys and beauties, the most exciting moment has finally arrived, please let me introduce you to the final matchup of this competitive tournament finals. Ye Xuanlu picked up the microphone, completely ignoring the several student union members who were frowning next to him, he touched his brows, "This year's competitive competition is really full of accidents and surprises, both sides of the finals have experienced a difficult promotion process, who can have the last laugh and become a real player, let's wait and see." โ
"It's a winner, President!" a student council member reminded in a whisper.
Ye Xuanlu couldn't help wiping the beads of sweat on his head and looked at the list of finalists: "The champion of this final will be produced from two foreign beauties, which is unique in previous competitions, so handsome guys, cheer! Dedicate your roar to the goddess in your heart, beauties, applaud! Use your applause to select the best person you think." โ
Shen Fangli shook her head, she had to feel helpless for Ye Xuanlu's commentary, this self-righteous president played so old-fashioned every time, he was still having so much fun, should it be said that he was still childlike? or not enlightened enough. Anyway, by the time he read the names of the two sides on the stage, Shen Fangli and Liu Yuhan had already stepped into the ring and took out their respective weapons to confront each other.
"It's going to start, don't be merciful to my subordinates just because it's me!" Liu Yuhan pulled out his Yingbi sword and said softly.
"Of course I'll do my best, don't think that I'll be afraid of you if you use the Yingbi Sword. Shen Fangli replied, and at the same time held the golden staff horizontally in front of him.
As soon as the bell rang, the finals officially began, Liu Yuhan took the lead in attacking, she picked up the sword in her hand, and suddenly several sword qi attacked Shen Fangli along the ground. She thought that Shen Fangli would dodge, but unbelievable, Shen Fangli easily blocked this move by wrapping the staff in her hand in front of her.
Then Shen Fangli cast a fire spell and an ice spell in a row, forcing Liu Yuhan to use the Wind Wings to increase speed to dodge, and when she summoned the stone wall to resist the ice picks summoned by Shen Fangli, she suddenly discovered that Shen Fangli's tricks and qualifiers, Tang Xuantang dealt with herself the same, Tang Xuantang lost to herself in this way, didn't Shen Fangli know how to learn a lesson?
So Liu Yuhan sacrificed her proud combat skill, Zixiang Heavenly Decision, and turned the sword qi into several qi-shaped blades that flew towards Shen Fangli from all directions, she thought that in this way, Shen Fangli would not be able to dodge even if she had great ability.
Just as Liu Yuhan expected, the lethal effect of Zixiang Heavenly Decision was quickly revealed, and several black dots appeared on Shen Fangli's white clothes, but what shocked her was that Shen Fangli still used the basic staff method to block several sword qi of Zixiang Heavenly Decision, and frequently launched counterattacks against her.
Because Shen Fangli's speed of making moves was very fast, there was no chance for Liu Yuhan to launch her combat skills, so Liu Yuhan had no choice but to use her basic sword technique to fight against her basic staff technique.
In this way, the two sides entered the stage of stalemate, and it became a contest between basic skills, and the two faced each other for more than ten rounds without a win, and after Liu Yuhan's hard blow was blocked by Shen Fangli with a staff, she approached Shen Fangli's face and said: "You can't get a lot of progress after watching these days, but you can actually block my tricks." โ
Shen Fangli responded to Liu Yuhan with a smile, she pressed her staff towards Liu Yuhan, gritted her teeth and said: "Since the first round of the official competition, I have realized the importance of physical skills, so I have carried out training to strengthen physical skills, just to restrain you, the last time you fought with Tang Yutang, I have carefully studied it, and I used the same method as her to attack you just to paralyze you, and the real intention is to ......"
I saw Shen Fangli take advantage of Liu Yuhan to shift her attention to the conversation with herself, silently recite the incantation, release the staff with her right hand, meet Liu Yuhan with her palm, and cast a soul snatching spell on her.
Suddenly, Liu Yuhan felt the leakage of spiritual power in her body, she hurriedly slapped Shen Fangli's staff, pushed her away a few feet, and then used a Zixiang Heavenly Decision, this time Shen Fangli, who was focused on casting spells and absorbing spiritual power, was defenseless, and was added a few more black spots to her clothes by Zixiang Tiandu, but she also counterattacked with her staff, adding more black spots to Liu Yuhan's clothes.
Just as Shen Fangli was about to strike the final blow at Liu Yuhan, the bell rang when the time for the game came, and Shen Fangli had to slowly stand up from the half-kneeling posture, stepped forward to help Liu Yuhan, who was also half-kneeling, and the two shook hands very friendly.
The referee asked the two to put away their weapons and began to judge, through the measurement of the mana sensor, the black points on Shen Fangli's body were fifteen, and the black points on Liu Yuhan's body were fourteen, and the referee finally announced that Liu Yuhan won the championship of the 20th competitive competition by one point.
In fact, this result was expected by Shen Fangli a long time ago, compared to Liu Yuhan, her cultivation was still far behind, she had to touch her head, and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry! โ
Liu Yuhan didn't blame Shen Fangli in the slightest, she raised Shen Fangli's hand in the air.
There was a round of applause from the audience, and the students of Class C of the Spell Department shouted in unison: "Shen Fangli! slogan.
At that moment, the happiness in Shen Fangli's heart was not much worse than winning the championship, and she understood a truth: that is, respect is not something you have to come, but to win respect through continuous efforts.
