Chapter 147: The Contest (3)
But at the moment of actual touch, Boris felt as if he had been hit head-on by an adult beast dragon, and his feet involuntarily took a few steps backwards.
What kind of natural ability does this kid have, is it strength enhancement?
Philip is by no means only strengthened at this moment, but even his speed, reflexes, etc., are all twice as strong as just now.
He activated "Madness" and "Solid Wall" at the same time, and as for the other two abilities, they were not activated for the time being.
I saw Philip raise his broadsword from behind his back in a strange arc, high above his head, and smash it into his opponent's shield.
After a piercing loud bang, the corner of the hard and heavy shield in the upper left was completely rolled and deformed.
Then, with incredible speed, he dodged to Boris's side, the tip of his sword rising from the bottom up.
The bulky Boris couldn't keep up with Philip's speed, but fortunately, the area of the giant shield in his hand was large enough that he could barely block the path of the broadsword with only a slight adjustment of the angle.
But the next moment, he didn't feel any impact from the collision, and he found that Philip's figure had once again disappeared from the hole in the helmet.
Then the shield in his hand was swung aside with a sharp force, revealing a huge void in front of him.
Boris was devastated, and this was the first time he had been completely out of position under the attack of his opponents, apart from several of his own mentors.
The heavy broadsword in Philip's hand, nimble more like a small dagger, sliced through the void, and the head of the beast on his shoulder slammed into Boris's chest.
At the same time, the blade of the broadsword slid down Boris's arm, making a piercing scraping sound all the way before finally striking the inside of the shield.
The two diametrically opposed huge forces, one inside and one outside, made Boris completely unable to grasp the shield in his hand, and flew away from his hand.
This is not the end of the time, after opening the ability, Philip's blood is surging, and the fighting spirit is surging, raising his hand to block Boris's one-handed sword.
Bent slightly to unload that force, then bent over and turned half a circle, and escaped lightly from Boris's armpit.
With his left hand blocking his left arm, and with his right hand holding his broadsword, he just struck Boris on the back with a gentle blow, and the white slate shimmered and turned a striking green.
With four points, Philip won the contest without any suspense.
The game in the field was as fast as lightning, and the crowd on the field barely reacted before they realized that the battle was over.
They also knew that the two sides had turned on their abilities, but they didn't expect Philip to be so terrifying after awakening, and almost perfectly killed Boris at the same level of awakening.
Boris still holding on to his movements, as if he had not yet recovered from the reality of the defeat.
Compared with everyone off the field, he is the one who feels Philip's soaring combat power the most.
At first, he thought that the opponent was strengthening his strength, but as the battle progressed, he was surprised to find that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't keep up with the opponent's movements.
The heavy armor and huge shields that were once trustworthy seemed to have become accomplices of the other party, hindering themselves from seeing each other's figures.
Philip's strength at this time had surpassed him, although the magnitude was not large, but he was no longer inferior in the head-on confrontation.
What's even more terrifying is the ghostly speed and on-the-spot reaction, the time for you to slash a sword is enough for the opponent to dodge, and then use the flaws left by yourself to calmly counterattack.
After reflecting on the battle just now, Boris recovered, although he underestimated the enemy here, and did not understand the opponent's ability, but he had to admit that he was completely suppressed in the head-to-head battle.
Thunderbolt applause rang out in the arena, and even Taryn nodded appreciatively to Philip.
He had already seen that after a lapse of several decades, the Snape family in High Camp City had once again appeared as a genius with all attributes improved.
He beckoned and summoned all the teenagers present.
Philip didn't bother to celebrate with Bruce, throwing down the distorted broadsword in his hand and quietly waiting for the final result.
"You have all seen the battle just now, the winner is Philip, who defeated Boris by an absolute margin of four points, and also qualified to represent the Green Tree Vine Intermediate Military Academy in this Kent Cup intercollegiate competition.
If you have any objections, you can raise them now. ”
Taryn stood in the middle, announcing his decision to the teenagers gathered around.
Wesley and the others didn't speak, just looked at the blonde boy who hadn't paid much attention to it before.
Although his handsome little face still looks a little immature at this moment, there is no doubt that he has gone ahead of them in terms of strength.
"Well, since there are no objections, starting next week, you will form an official team and start training. The college has made arrangements and will provide you with all the conveniences.
The academy attaches great importance to this competition, and gives a task to you little guys who don't know the height of the sky, and whether you can complete it depends on your own efforts.
This year, our goal is not just to settle for the top 10, but to be at least in the top three.
If there is even the slightest possibility, go all out to defeat the Royal Academy and become the first. ”
Tyron's tone was loud, but he wasn't arrogant.
This year is the big year for Green Tree Vine Intermediate College.
The so-called big year refers to the fact that the heirs of the three master groups all coincided with their meeting and could play together, which can be called a super luxurious lineup, and it also has two awakened geniuses at once.
Such a grand occasion is unique in the past dozens of competitions, except for the Royal Academy.
This is something that the old guys have been looking forward to for more than ten years, and have made countless preparations for this, both openly and secretly, and I don't know if they were deliberately calculated when they gave birth to this generation.
And the Hanoi Tower Intermediate Military Academy in the same city, because the heirs of the Rock Division Tuannuo family are much older than Bruce, they have already graduated.
Therefore, this year's strength can only be regarded as a relatively mediocre session in recent years, and there are not many bright spots.
The hope of Gokan City rests on Philip.
In this regard, although I don't know how Marquis Nuo felt in his heart, he naturally supported it on the surface, and gave the green light along the way.
Philip didn't ask why there was one person missing, Taryn announced the decision in front of Boris, I'm afraid they had already discussed the outcome of the matter, but they didn't know.
Perhaps invisibly, he was also used as a gun to sharpen Boris, which became one of the reasons for him to continue to stay in the Giant Bear Division.
However, Philip didn't care, the plan that had been planned for many days was finally realized, and he was still very satisfied that he did not over-borrow the power of the family.
Taryn continued, "Your training plan, I'll give you a haircut through West.
He will also be the captain and commander of your competition, and I will not interfere too much, and you will make your own decisions.
I hope you can put aside your past prejudices and work together.
There is only one chance, and whether you can make those guys remember your name and win honor on the stage of the imperial capital depends on your own efforts, not the chatter of old guys like me.
Okay, now it's all disbanded. ”
With that, he turned and left, leaving the teenagers here.
There will definitely be those who are not convinced, but since Wesley has already boasted about Haikou, then let these little guys solve it themselves, and he will be happy.
Without the presence of this imposing teacher, several teenagers were obviously much more relaxed, and Bruce even clamped Philip's head under his armpit and rubbed it vigorously, as if to express his envy and congratulations in this way.
Philip and Bruce have no objection to the fact that Wesley has become captain, which is part of the agreement between Philip and Wesley.
And Bruce also knew that it was originally the turn of the Giant Bear Division to lead the team, and the captain was selected from among their people, which has almost become an unspoken rule for many years.
What's more, due to Philip's strong entry, one of the three places in the Giant Bear Division has been squeezed out, and Boris, the dignified awakener, has even become a substitute for his cousin.
It is impossible to take advantage of too much, otherwise it will cause an internal imbalance, so he also closed his mouth, and seemed to just care about his cousin's awakening ability, and his face was full of curiosity.
Among the few remaining, Holps, the pride of the plebeians, was only the pride of the plebeians, and he wisely chose silence.
Chris, as a mad lion brother, naturally has a close eye on the Snape brothers, especially Bruce.
The only thing that seems likely to be opposed here is one of the heirs of the Shadow Hunters, Chuck Gabry.
Randall, who is also from Hunter, also watched Chuck's reaction, ready to advance and retreat together at any time.
Although Chuck has a brother who is nearly ten years older than him, he is in a similar situation to Philip, and the possibility of inheriting the Shadow Hunter is very slim.
But after all, he is also the third generation of the army, and it is completely understandable that he has his own pride.
Surprisingly, Chuck just looked at Wesley faintly, nodded, and stopped caring about the matter.
Philip looked at Wesley's eyes with confidence, and scolded the eyes between the two of them for being too affectionate, as if there was an unspeakable dirty PY deal.
Obviously, during the period when Philip was preparing to wake up, Wesley did a lot of work, balancing the interests of all sides, showing his good sense of the big picture and flexible political skills.
From this point of view, regardless of the outcome of this competition, he is already a winner, and after Philip, he has become the second descendant to officially enter the eyes of all families.
Looking at the big face full of joy of his cousin next to him, and thinking about the ugliness of his grandmother's birthday party a few days ago, he couldn't help but worry about his grandfather Brad Sr.
"Congratulations again, Philip, a great game, impressive.
And you, Boris, you've been doing a great job as well. If you had known in advance about Philip's natural abilities, I'm afraid the outcome of the game would have been different. ”
