Volume 1: This is a world that speaks with weapons Chapter 39: 32 to 16, See Tianxing Again
Straight chop, diagonal slash, sweep, stab, stab...
This time, Luo Lang chopped towards Qi Ji at a speed no slower than last time. The Embroidered Spring Knife in his hand seemed to turn into a ball of black light with white lines during the high-speed movement, quickly wrapping Qi Ji in his knife circle.
A huge pressure came upon me instantly.
Qi Ji acted decisively, faced the challenge head-on, and swung his sword with all his strength to block Luo Lang's fierce attacks coming from all directions!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
The sound of weapons clashing rang out as rapidly as machine gun fire.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!
In less than three seconds, Qi Ji's barely-held defense was broken by Luo Lang, and dozens of wounds appeared on his body in an instant!
Then he beheaded him with one sword!
【Spirituality 80/100】
…
He opened his eyes and sat up. This time Qi Ji was not frustrated about being killed. He was even a little happy.
He had expected to fail in defeating Luo Lang once or twice, but this time, he discovered more opportunities to win.
For example, before encountering him , Luo Lang had already experienced a great battle and even used the secret method of explosion.
For example, this time he was able to hold on for a few seconds under Luo Lang's explosive state, which shows that his special training method is effective.
That meant that as long as he trained a few more times, he would be able to hold out longer against Luo Lang in his explosive state. At the same time, he would try to reach the top of the tower faster next time and seize the opportunity when Luo Lang didn't have time to recover his strength after the desperate fight...
The final victory will definitely belong to him!
Get up, wash up, look at the time, it’s only 7 o’clock, let’s go!
Ding Dong.
On the bus, Qi Ji's cell phone lit up. It was a text message from Qin Zijin.
Qin Zijin: [Good morning, Qi Ji, have you set off yet? ]
Qi Ji smiled and picked up his phone to reply.
Qi Ji: [Just got on the bus, we only have 3 players left in Zangfeng, it’s too late! ]
Qin Zijin: [It is enough for Cang Feng to have you this time. You have been given many nicknames on the Internet. ]
Qi Ji: [What other titles can I have? The most handsome swordsman? ]
Qin Zijin: [Ugh! You really are a bit narcissistic! ]
Qin Zijin: [Your most liked nickname is "Weapon Killer", which means you specialize in knocking other people's weapons away, haha! ]
Qi Ji was chatting with Qin Zijin on the phone. Yan Qing came over and asked, "Brother Qi, today is the 32 to 16 qualifying round. Aren't you nervous?"
Qi Ji laughed: "Don't be nervous, I can handle it if I play normally!"
Yan Qing: "What if we face Bai Tianhe and Qin Zijin? Do you have confidence, Brother Qi?"
Qi Ji rubbed the kid's head, messed up his hair, and said calmly: "Qin Zijin's soft swordsmanship is indeed mysterious, but I basically know what he is doing. But Bai Tianhe's tricks have not been exposed yet. He is a tricky guy."
Then he added: "Fighting with the two of them is not a question of whether or not you have confidence. It depends on how you actually perform. Even if they have a trump card, your brother Qi has one too."
Yan Qing was shocked: "What? Brother Qi, do you have another trump card? What is it?"
Zhang Zizai, who had been listening for a while, chuckled and interrupted, "Xiao Yanqing, of course your brother Qi has a special move. I was so impressed by his special move that I recruited him."
Du Xishan also came over and put his hand on Zhang Zizai's shoulder: "What secret trick is that? Why are you keeping it a secret?"
Zhang Zizai opened his mouth and was about to say something, but then he remembered that he didn't know the name of Qi Ji's thrust, and looked at Qi Ji awkwardly.
Qi Ji looked at the three people's inquiring eyes and said with a smile: "My move is called Wuming Sword."
"The Sword of Innocent Wisdom? The lost secret technique of the Tenshin-ryu of the Ancient Sakura Sword School? Three-stage thrusts?" Du Xishan reacted the fastest and confirmed curiously.
Qi Ji nodded: "The inspiration does come from this legendary move."
Yan Qing asked curiously: "Brother, you have this trick, why didn't you use it last time you fought me?"
Qi Ji glanced at him and chuckled.
Yan Qing suddenly understood: "Damn! Brother Qi, you look down on me!"
While chatting and laughing, the group arrived at Tianhai Stadium smoothly.
Today is the schedule for the 32-to-16 round, which is basically equivalent to the competition having passed the initial stage and reached a white-hot stage.
Therefore, starting from today, there will only be one match in each round, and the competition system will be adjusted to a best-of-three system.
The competition venue was finally moved to the large stage in the center of the stadium, and all other small stages had been removed overnight.
At 9 a.m., the entire schedule was announced and the competition began.
And for this first game, Qi Ji was responsible for opening the game!
[Top 32 qualifying match - Match 1: Qi Ji (Cang Feng) VS Xie Shi Lian (Tian Xing)]
As the hot dark horse of this rookie competition, Qi Ji advanced to the next round by knocking down the opponent's weapons and killing them instantly in each of the first four games.
Because of this outrageous way of winning, Qi Ji is now the most popular person in the Da Xia martial arts circle. As one of the hottest sports in the world in recent years, being popular in the martial arts circle is equivalent to being popular on the entire Internet. Coupled with his good looks and physique that make him particularly good at fighting, he has even attracted the love of many fan girls, who post comments on his blog every day.
Weapon killer, dignity depriver, one-sword superman...all kinds of strange titles were given to him. If it weren't for Bai Tianhe and Qin Zijin backing him up, Qi Ji would definitely be the big devil of this rookie competition.
The organizers had their reasons for using a super popular player like Qi Ji to open the "elite level" competition.
The main reason is that the organizers found themselves being criticized by the audience for manipulating the competition system. The previous schedule was too artificial, resulting in almost every game being a bully game. After dozens of games, there were hardly any exciting scenes.
This time, they simply used a heavyweight player to open the show and arranged a strong player as well, intending to give the audience a satisfying viewing experience and restore the reputation.
Sure enough, when Qi Ji put on his equipment and appeared at the edge of the competition stage with a straight knife in hand, the audience in the entire stadium became excited.
Qi Ji raised his head and looked around, his handsome face was displayed on the big screen from different angles.
Countless spectators waved colorful flags and banners, blew whistles and horns, and amplified the voices of their cheers through loudspeakers.
The huge cheers of encouragement echoed in the stadium, allowing Qi Ji to clearly understand how exaggerated his current popularity was.
Just before going on stage, Zhang Zizai pulled Qi Ji aside and introduced him to his opponent's information again.
"Your opponent, Xie Shilian, is Tianxing's second-ranked seeded player this time. Among Tianxing's players participating in this competition, his strength is second only to Fang Hanxing."
Zhang Zizai said seriously, and then added: "The weapon he specializes in is the same as Fang Hanxing's, a Nordic two-handed sword. I suggest you go easy on him and learn about his style of moves. It should be helpful for your future battle against Fang Hanxing."
Qi Ji listened to Zhang Zizai's words, looked up at the contestant named Xie Shilian across the stage, smiled and nodded, agreeing to do as Zhang Zizai said.
