Chapter 59: Semifinals
After announcing the victory of Ling Jiuqiu.
The crowd burst into sparse cheers.
The strong talent and strength that Ling Jiuqiu showed finally conquered some people.
There were also some people who glanced at each other, after all, they were still afraid of the second lady and Ling Bailong, for fear of being considered related to Ling Jiuqiu, so they didn't dare to cheer for them.
Next.
In the third game, No. 37, one of the popular players, Ling Zhanxi, defeated his opponent neatly and successfully entered the semifinals.
In the fourth game, No. 55 ordered Bailong to kill the opponent in one move.
No. 67 had a third bye.
At this point, the fourth round of the competition is over.
A total of five players advanced to the semi-finals of the fifth round.
In addition to the 67 bye again, the other two races were in the spotlight.
Ling Sichun VS Ling Jiuqiu.
Ling Zhanxi VS Ling Bailong.
Before the game even started, everyone was hotly discussed.
"There is no doubt that Ling Bailong defeated Ling Zhanxi, and the most suspenseful one is probably the duel between Ling Sichun and Ling Jiuqiu."
"The strength of both of them has been tested in four actual battles, and they are definitely the top powerhouses of this year, and they have both defeated opponents who are also popular candidates, and their strength is quite strong."
"This is going to be a battle for the pinnacle!"
"However, there is one thing to say, at that time, the battle between Ling Sichun and Ling Anping was stalemate for a long time, and finally dragged on until the opponent's true qi was insufficient before he barely won."
"On the other hand, the duel between Ling Jiuqiu and Ling Chengan was almost instantaneous, and Ling Chengping, who was crushed by him, was not an ordinary person, but one of the same popular players, so that among the five popular candidates, Ling Jiuqiu may also be among the top."
"In my opinion, Ling Jiuqiu should be able to defeat Ling Siyuan and finally achieve the runner-up result."
Someone rationally analyzes a wave.
Someone retorted: "Actual combat is not an intuitive comparison of numbers, or a simple analogy, one person can defeat another, but not necessarily another person's defeat." ”
"In addition to absolute strength, the battle is also about mutual restraint."
"I admit that Ling Jiuqiu's explosive power is quite terrifying, and among all the contestants, I am afraid that he is second only to the White Dragon Young Patriarch, so he can instantly defeat Ling Cheng'an's rock big hand and lay the victory in one fell swoop."
"Ling Sichun's strength is not necessarily stronger than Ling Cheng'an, but her Golden Jiao Whip Martial Soul has unpredictable attacks, and she is good at overcoming rigidity with softness, maybe it is just right to restrain Ling Jiuqiu."
"Not to mention anything else, once you are restrained by the Golden Jiao Whip, I am afraid that with Ling Jiuqiu's explosive power, you may not be able to break free."
"Ling Sichun can completely wander around and fight, constantly attacking from a distance with the Golden Jiao Whip, or trying to bind Ling Jiuqiu, so that his powerful explosive power cannot be exerted."
When I said this, some people suddenly realized.
"Seems to make sense! With Ling Sichun's strength, in front of Ling Chengan, I am afraid that he will not even be able to get close, but when the two of them face Ling Jiuqiu at the same time, Ling Sichun's chances of winning will definitely be greater. ”
"Ling Cheng'an was too big and chose to carry Ling Jiuqiu's attack head-on, but he didn't know that Ling Jiuqiu's strongest thing was explosiveness, and he was naturally defeated in an instant, but Ling Sichun could choose to fight and avoid Ling Jiuqiu's strengths, maybe he could easily defeat Ling Jiuqiu."
"In this way, there will be suspense in this battle."
The crowd was talking excitedly.
Suddenly, a faint voice rang out.
"By the way, don't you think it's the other person you should be paying attention to?"
"Number 67!"
"From beginning to end, there were five rounds in total, and this guy had four byes, that is, he only won one game and was firmly in the top three!"
"! Really! I didn't even notice, this guy quietly won the top three! ”
"By the way, what's the name of Number 67?"
"I don't know, I didn't pay attention, who cares what his name is? All I know is that I'm jealous of him! ”
"Nima! This luck! ”
Some people can't help but spit fragrantly, and their tone is full of sourness.
In the midst of the noisy discussions.
Round 5 has begun!
Ling Sichun and Ling Jiuqiu stepped into the ring one after another.
Stand at a distance of more than 10 meters.
Ling Sichun's expression was solemn, and he seemed to be ready for battle at any time.
Ling Jiuqiu's eyes were calm and indifferent.
Neither spoke.
The crowd below also gradually quieted down, as if they had a premonition that the next battle would be extremely fierce, for fear of missing a single detail.
Ling Dehui on the side waved his hand and said loudly: "Competition, start!" ”
As soon as the words fell.
A large amount of blood-colored true qi gushed out of Jiuqiu's body, outlining the form of the Soul Refining Ding.
Then his feet moved, and his body shot out!
Meanwhile.
Ling Sichun activated the Golden Jiao Whip Martial Spirit, and his white and delicate hands held the long whip tightly, and slammed it towards the figure that Ling Jiuqiu rushed to.
"Smack!"
The air suddenly exploded with a crisp sound.
Due to the morphological advantage of the long whip, this swing, the tip part easily exceeded the speed of sound, and ordinary people couldn't see the trajectory clearly, even a strong person like Ling Jiuqiu could only barely see a blood-colored afterimage.
But that's enough.
Ling Jiuqiu crossed his arms in front of him, did not dodge or dodge, and rushed forward towards the whip shadow.
"Smack!"
The whip slammed into his arm.
The Soul Refining Ding Martial Soul did not move at all.
Ling Jiuqiu was even more unconscious, his footsteps did not pause at all, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed to a place less than two meters away in front of Ling Sichun.
Ling Sichun couldn't help but change his expression.
Although her long whip has a long attack range, it is only about three meters long compared to her bare hands and swords.
If the opponent chooses to attack with a long whip, the next moment she can rush directly in front of her and pose a threat to her.
The strong defensive ability that Ling Jiuqiu had just shown made her clearly realize that the kite flying tactics she had thought out in advance would not work at all.
Because when he was trying his best to avoid the pursuit, he couldn't coordinate his whole body strength well and cast a powerful attack.
At most, you can only perform attacks of about 60% power.
However, even with his full strength, he couldn't break the defense, and the attack with sixty percent strength was even more impossible to shake Ling Jiuqiu's defense.
"Then, there is only a fight to consume."
"It's only been three months since Jiuqiu awakened, and at most the True Qi Realm is triple, and the True Qi is far less than mine, once I enter the war of attrition, my victory rate will increase greatly."
"Or try to tie it with a long whip."
"His explosiveness is too strong, and his defense is ridiculously strong, it is impossible to defeat it head-on, and it is also a good choice to overcome the restraint with softness."
In a short moment, two tactical plans popped up in Ling Sichun's mind.
"The first tactic is the safest, try the first first, and if it doesn't work, try the second tactic."
Thinking of this, Ling Sichun's feet moved, and his slender and slender body floated back abruptly.
Yellow-grade high-grade, catkins body method.
Although it is only a proficient realm, it is enough to significantly increase Ling Sichun's speed and flexibility, and compared with his peers, he has been able to open up a significant speed gap.
After all, everyone is only in their teens, and the formal cultivation after awakening the martial soul is generally only one or two years.
Most people's main energy is focused on the improvement of cultivation, and only when cultivation is bottlenecked and cannot be broken through for a while, will they devote part of their energy to studying martial arts.
Moreover, they usually concentrate on learning only one martial art.
Since Ling Jiuqiu doesn't know how to use martial arts, even if his body is only proficient, he can establish a clear advantage.
