Chapter Ninety-Six: The Battle Begins

In the days leading up to the final round of selection, seventy-four students who needed to participate in the fifth round were all working hard for the fifth round of selection on the seventeenth day of the second semester. So that she could master the spells that Eco taught her faster and better, and Eco readily agreed.So, every afternoon, there would be two figures of Eco and Nora in a remote hill outside the city of Luoyin.

"Nora, mental concentration, it's time to practice, so in order to better master this spell, try to control the flow speed of the magic power in your body, and then carefully feel the condensation process of this spell." Eco said to Nora, who was condensing her magic.

"Yes!" Nora replied in her mind, immediately focusing her entire attention, and then following Eco's instructions, she first slowed down the flow of magic in her body, and then she could barely sense the condensation process of the spell she was casting now, and then feel it.

Because the spell can't be retracted when it is condensed, Nora's spell was finally released, but from the perspective of its effect, it is obviously not good because this spell is easy to release, but if you really want to use it well, you must be able to control it in your hand at the first moment when this spell is released, and then you can control it in the next step.

As for what exactly this spell is, Eco said that everyone will know it in the fifth round of selection.

Dividing line

A few days passed in a flash, and soon came to the day of the fifth round of selection, this day's selection, the teachers chose the location of the school's martial arts arena.

"This battle...... It's really big." Nora, who was in the martial arts arena at this time, looked at the audience around her, which was about sixteen or seven hundred people, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart, "And this martial arts arena, how can I think this is the gymnasium I have been to before......?" But the two big screens in the main stands on either side are quite a novelty." That's right...... Maybe it's a coincidence, maybe it's some special reason, the inside of the martial arts arena of the Luoyin Academy is a place that is very similar to a modern gymnasium, and the exterior is a unique architectural style in this world.The whole venue is getting lower and lower from the four sides to the middle.Among them, there are four rectangular martial arts platforms in the middle, which is where the cultivators fight their opponents.Then there is a passage of about three meters between the martial arts platform and the surrounding area from the outermost part of the arena down step by step, and the inward auditorium. If you don't look at the arena on the field, then this space does look very much like the gymnasium that Nora knew in her previous life, but the space here is obviously much larger than those gymnasiums, and this is because the area of each of the four arenas in the middle is no smaller than a football field that Nora knows.

But this is also very normal, Nora thought, after all, the average eyesight of people in this world is several levels higher than her previous life.

"Everyone must have been looking forward to this round of selection for a long time, right? This can be seen from the more than 1,000 spectators of us, so let's get straight to the point...... In the end, we will select forty-four of the seventy-four students who participated in this round of selection and what we think is the best in combat power to enter the final selection camp, and then together with six other priests, we will form the team for this trial. On the stage, the director of instruction is explaining the rules of this round of competition, selection methods and other things." The number of selections in this round is seventy-four, so after analysis, we decided to divide these seventy-four people into eight groups, the first six groups of nine people each, each for eight round-robin matches, and then the last two groups are ten people, the same round-robin competition, the rules remain the same.

"So, now it's time to announce the results of the grouping...... Please see the big screens on both sides of the main stand of the martial arts arena." Following the words of the dean, the students looked at the two large screens, and saw two sets of tables displayed on the left and right on the large screens.

The names of these two sets of tables are "Group A Battle Table" and "Group B Battle Table", and then, after some time, the two tables are replaced by the Battle Tables of Group C and D, respectively, and then the Battle Tables of the other groups appear in turn.

The eight groups of battle tables are also quite different from the four groups of ABCD, each group of nine people, and all of them are divided into five warrior students, three magic students and one alchemy student.

After the grouping is completed, then it is natural to start the battle.Due to the large number of opponents and the number of matches, the first game of the ABCD group starts at the same time.Among them, the first game of Group B is Koizumi. [,!] vs heliocentric

"Group A First Match ......"

"In the first game of Group B, Koizumi of the martial arts C class will play against the heliocentric of the martial arts A class!"

"Group C Match 1 ......." "Group D Match 1 ......"

"The contestants are in their places, and the tryouts start in a minute...... The competition begins!" With the order of the teaching director, the fifth round of the selection competition officially kicked off.

Not...... When I introduced the magic class A in the mouth of Tong Guò Aislin, there was already an explanation, that is, the magic class A is a class full of all kinds of strange magicians, and there is even a large proportion of non-human races.

Since he hadn't done anything about it, Eco didn't know the answer to this question, but one thing was certain, at least Koizumi's opponent on the stage at the moment, the girl named Heliocentric Martial Arts Class A, she was a cat lady!

The cat lady's weapon is a pair of short swords, and she is wearing the light armor of an agile warrior, while Koizumi has a long sword in her right hand and a short dagger in her left hand.

"Drink!" After a period of confrontation, the girls' footsteps began to move, and the weapons finally intersected, making a clear sound.

The strength and outburst on the temptation and the two sides played a draw.

Since you can't suppress each other in terms of strength, then let's run, and use speed to win!The two girls who were fighting thought of this together, and then they began to move at high speed, and in this fast movement, they fought each other at a high frequency.

"Oh, that's a good speed, these two kids, especially the Terran girl from Class C...... You must know that in general, in the case of similar cultivation, the body quality of the demon and beast warriors is one level higher than that of the warriors of the same profession, but this kid can actually be comparable to the warriors of the civet clan in terms of (movement) speed, which is simply rare." The onlookers were surprised.

"Indeed...... And in addition to the movement speed, this kid's attack speed and sword skills are faster than the cat people on the other side, so it seems that this battle can be over after a maximum of twenty rounds." One of the older teachers who was watching the game asserted about the game.

And it turned out that this teacher's vision was accurate.

In fact, when the two girls began to compete in speed and sword skills, the fate of the cat lady's heliocentric was already doomed.

Slash horizontally, stabbed straight, picked up, pointed, and dialed ...... The sword skills used by Koizumi are not those special sword skills with various names and styles, but only the most ordinary and basic sword usage, but these simplest skills combined with Koizumi's good attack speed (frequency) and her solid basic skills because of the special training of her master, the power exerted is quite extraordinary.

A powerful horizontal slash,When the cat lady's sword skills just came out,Hit the cat lady's left short sword,The opponent's short sword was deflected.,And then at the same time,Koizumi's footsteps also turned sideways to the right.,Successfully let the cat lady's double short sword stabbed according to the special sword technique miss.Although due to the greater force,,I also fell into a small stiffness.But compared to the opponent who used the sword technique,The stiffness time is still a little shorter.However, these moments of time determine the opponent's defeat.。

Thorn Thorn ...... Relying on the length of the long sword in his hand and the frequency of his own attacks faster than the other party, Koizumi was unforgiving, and directly made the cat lady Rixin busy.Then when he stabbed out the thirteenth sword, Koizumi took advantage of the other party's panic, pulled a sword flower, and then bypassed the opponent's right hand short sword, and took advantage of the situation to swing out the left hand short sword forcefully at this time, the two of them were empty, but the right hand of the heliocentric heart could not be recovered for a while due to the defense just now; But Koizumi's left hand is able to take the initiative to attack, and she also does this.The foot rushes,The dagger in the left hand pierces the heliocentric face doorAlthough it is said that the standard equipment of the contestants is an unopened sword and will not make the opponent suffer serious damage in the real sense, but if Koizumi is really stabbed, then the game will be lost.So the heliocentric can only force himself to withdraw his right hand, trying to block Koizumi's thrust.

Eventually, Koizumi's dagger was placed on heliocentric's neck, ending the battle.

"In the first game of Group B, Koizumi of the martial arts C class, win!" Seeing this, the teacher who was the referee announced the result of the game.
