Chapter 229: Broken Shadow
With a soft sound, the dagger in the girl's hand slashed past Xiao Lin's back, and a hideous blood mark was immediately drawn, and blood oozed out of the wound.
Xiao Lin only noticed the other party's movement at the moment when the girl cut off the dagger, although he quickly made a dodge move, but after all, he still couldn't completely avoid it, and his back was immediately injured.
Xiao Lin swept to the corner of the competition platform, turned to look at Liu Qiang, who was standing not far away, and muttered in his heart: "I can't notice her movement at all, her breath is completely gone, how can I fight?"
He has a headache now, the other party has not shown any momentum, if he can't see Liu Qiang's figure, he almost thinks that there is no one on the other side.
"Deliberately?" Situ Lei looked at Zhao Xingnan a little strangely, "You mean this girl deliberately didn't release her momentum?"
"That's right. Zhao Xingnan nodded, "Momentum is a sign of ability, the more powerful the ability, the stronger the momentum he can cast, although this is something that cannot be seen by the naked eye, but we can clearly feel it." ”
"I know that, and then?" asked Situ Lei.
"In addition to those with psychic abilities who have unique means of perception, those with other abilities who want to determine the position of their opponents when their line of sight is obstructed, they generally rely on perceiving momentum to make judgments. Zhao Xingnan continued, "This is a very conventional method, even the lowest level of ability can do it. ”
"So that girl completely restrained her momentum just so that her opponent wouldn't notice her position?" Situ Lei somewhat understood.
"Yes. Zhao Xingnan nodded, "This kind of means is generally only possessed by assassins, holding your breath, lowering your heartbeat, completely restraining your own momentum, collecting your breath, and combining with some hidden means, you can make the other party completely uncertain about your position." ”
"Isn't that invincible?" Situ Lei was stunned for a moment, "This trick seems to be very useful." ”
"Of course not. Zhao Xingnan smiled, "This method can only reduce your breath as much as possible, but it can't completely take it away, as long as you are alive, you will have a heartbeat, as long as you are still panting, your breath will always exist, the key depends on whether your opponent can find it." ”
Situ Lei was silent, he looked at the girl in the black combat uniform in the field, and asked himself if Xiao Lin was replaced by him, I am afraid it would be difficult to perceive the whereabouts of the other party.
In the field, Liu Qiang's figure slowly blurred again, and finally disappeared from the field completely.
Xiao Lin stared ahead with wide eyes, he watched the girl's figure become invisible, and that faint aura disappeared from his perception range, he now seemed to be standing on an empty competition platform with no people, no opponent, only himself.
"There must be a way to perceive it. Xiao Lin thought in his heart, "Everyone is about the same age, there is always a way to sense her position." ”
Su He looked at Xiao Lin calmly, his eyes quickly swept in the direction of the competition platform, and then returned to Xiao Lin's body.
He is natural
can clearly perceive Liu Qiang's position, but as a referee, he needs to ensure that the game is fair, if he looks in one direction for too long, Xiao Lin will naturally be able to react, and Liu Qiang will stand there.
"Snort" was another soft sound, and a scratch also appeared on Xiao Lin's right arm, and blood slowly seeped out of the wound and penetrated into his clothes.
Xiao Lin's figure flickered back and forth in the field, urging the "Flying Shadow", and he moved himself quickly instead of standing in place, so that it would be difficult for Liu Qiang to hit him accurately.
However, this is just not a way to do it, after all, maintaining the "Flying Shadow" for a long time will have a huge drain on Xiao Lin's physical fitness, if you can't find a way to solve the other party's hidden means, then defeat is only a matter of time, either Liu Qiang defeats him or he himself is tired and dies, and loses the ability to continue fighting.
Xiao Lin took a deep breath, a dark flame burned in his eyes, he thought of a way, but this method was very risky, and if it didn't succeed, it would be benevolent.
"You can only gamble. Xiao Lin made a judgment, "If I can't locate the other party's position, then there is no possibility of winning." He clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and a bright red flame suddenly jumped out of his body, wrapping around his body and flying, the flame burned more and more, and soon turned into a sea of fire in the air, and then suddenly fell from the sky and bombarded the arena.
There was a soft "bang", and a collision sound was heard in the corner of the competition platform, and at the same time, there were brilliant sparks blooming, as if stirring up a wave in the sea.
"There!" Xiao Lin's eyes froze, and the "Flying Shadow" urged with all his might, turned around and came to the location where the sound came from, and a sword quickly slashed down, and he used all his strength with this sword.
"When!" the sound of metal clashing came out, and sparks sputtered around, Liu Qiang's figure manifested, and kept retreating on the tournament platform until it stopped at the edge.
"Don't run!" Xiao Lin's figure jumped out again, and at the same time, the surrounding sea of fire quickly rolled up, surging towards Liu Qiang, trying to drown him.
The dagger in Liu Qiang's hand flew quickly, and a cold sword light slashed through, chopping the surrounding sea of fire into pieces, and his figure quickly swept towards the distance, and his figure gradually faded as he skimmed.
Xiao Lin used this sea of fire to confirm Liu Qiang's location, so he didn't put too much effort into the power, so Liu Qiang could easily cut through the fire wave.
But it was precisely because of this short moment of delay that Xiao Lin, who was fully engaged in the "Flying Shadow", had already come to Liu Qiang's face, and the long sword fell again.
"Heart Sword Technique: Yang!"
This time, Xiao Lin no longer used ordinary sword moves to fight the enemy, but used the sword move at the bottom of the box, and the sword light that was imperceptible to the naked eye brought a sharp sword aura, and came to Liu Qiang's face in an instant.
For the first time, Liu Qiang's expressionless face fluctuated, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, the dagger in his hand flew quickly, and the cold cold light of the Dao Dao roared out, colliding with Xiao Lin's sword move.
There was a banging sound in the field, and the cold light that Liu Qiang cut out was taken by Xiao Lin's heart swordsmanship in an instant
Crushed, and the sharp sword light slashed towards Liu Qiang.
With a soft sound, Liu Qiang's figure flew out upside down and fell heavily to the ground, and she spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow" and sprinkled it on her black combat uniform.
Xiao Lin didn't stop as soon as he remembered his hand, stepped on the ground with the soles of his feet, and his figure swept out again, holding the long sword in his hand, and swept towards Liu Qiang.
Through these rounds of fighting, he gradually touched some of the opponent's routines, and the opponent's means of removing his body shape required a period of preparation, and each time the opponent disappeared slowly, rather than disappearing in an instant.
"I just need to keep my attacking rhythm and don't give her a chance to disappear and the victory will be mine. Xiao Lin made a judgment in his heart and found a key breakthrough, "She is not as good as me in close combat, and she can't stop my offensive." ”
The two collisions just now also made Xiao Lin realize that Liu Qiang was not his opponent in close combat, and the other party completely relied on the means of concealment, and did not have much advantage in his own combat power, if he completely relied on his own means, the other party might not be able to break into the top thirty-two.
"But the boy found some doorways. Situ Lei stared at the competition in the field with an ugly face, and he was very unhappy that Xiao Lin had the upper hand, "Count him lucky." ”
"It's not luck. Zhao Xingnan said softly, "I'm afraid that if I were a bystander, I would have been flustered a long time ago, and I don't know what to do, but he is very calm, using his body to dodge the opponent's possible attacks, and at the same time determining the opponent's position with a range move that covers the entire field, and finally using a storm of quick sword moves to prevent the opponent from entering the state of concealment again, the use of each move has a meaning behind it, and he has a lot of combat experience." ”
Zhao Xingnan looked at Xiao Lin, his eyes were full of appreciation, and Xiao Lin's strength was even higher than he imagined.
"If he can really get into the talent camp, he will be a good helper. Zhao Xingnan thought softly in his heart, and made his own judgment in his heart.
"You're still here, and I'm really optimistic about him. Situ Lei pouted and said, but in his heart, he didn't think much of Xiao Lin's ability, and didn't pay attention to it at all.
"Let's keep watching. Zhao Xingnan didn't bother to tell Situ Leiduo, he knew Situ Lei's temper, no matter how much he said, it was just a waste of words, and it was better to speak with facts.
With a soft "snort", the long sword in Xiao Lin's hand slashed across Liu Qiang's arm, and suddenly a hideous scar appeared in front of everyone.
And the dagger in Liu Qiang's hand also came out of his hand, fell to the ground crisply, and swiped out in a whirlwind, her figure quickly retreated, and at the same time began to blur again, wanting to hide again.
"I've seen through your moves. Xiao Lin's voice suddenly sounded behind Liu Qiang, and the long sword was against Liu Qiang's back, "Admit defeat." ”
Liu Qiang was silent, his body trembled slightly, and he never said a word, and the surrounding audience also watched this scene quietly, obviously it should be the time to cheer, but everyone was very quiet.
Su He didn't speak, and let Liu Qiang make his own decision, Bi
She still has the physical strength, and if she really wants to continue fighting, she can still do it, so the referee will not intervene at this time.
"I lost. In the end, Liu Qiang still said lightly, although she can continue to fight, but there is no point in it, when her biggest reliance is seen through by Xiao Lin, she has actually lost.
"How did you see through it?" asked Liu Qiang softly.
Xiao Lin was stunned, he didn't expect Liu Qiang to ask like this, and finally he touched his nose a little embarrassed: "Luck." ”
Liu Qiang nodded solemnly: "Thank you." With that, she turned around and left, leaving Xiao Lin, who was confused, standing in place, a little at a loss.
Xiao Lin won. Su He announced the results of the competition, and the audience erupted in amazing cheers, everyone was very excited, according to the current situation, two of the candidates for the top four were from the Tianxiang Empire, which undoubtedly made them very proud and felt particularly face-saving.
Xiao Lin looked towards the players' seat, his gaze finally stayed on Situ Yun's face, he slowly raised his long sword and pointed at the other party, his eyes burst out with an amazing light, the flames on his body instantly rose, and he said softly: "I'm waiting for you in the divisional finals." ”
Situ Yun slowly stood up, bowed slightly, his gaze quickly swept over Wang Yang, who was sitting not far away, a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly.
"I'll be here soon. ”
