Volume 2 That World Chapter 21: Targeted? You should be afraid!
Li Haichao was injured in many places and fell to the ground without any fighting ability. He was quickly carried away to be treated by an extraordinary therapist.
Qi Ji let out a light sigh, turned around and walked off the stage amid the discussions of the audience.
"Qi Jisang!" Shangquan Yiren immediately came forward and said with admiration: "You are so strong to break the gun with a sword!"
Qi Ji smiled slightly and said modestly: "My opponent is an ordinary 6th dan player. He is a good player but not a genius. His real strength is probably not even as good as yours."
Shangquan Yiren gritted his teeth and said, "You can actually use long-handled weapons to fight short weapons. If this is the rule in the foreign land, don't blame me for using a long spear!"
That’s right, the ancestor of the Kamiizumi family, Kamiizumi Nobunaga, was a swordsman, but the gun he used on the battlefield was much longer than that of ordinary people, and he was known as the best gun in Nagasu.
The Sakura Country has this characteristic. In history, the strong men who were known as sword saints and sword masters were all better than each other in using guns on the battlefield.
Therefore, in addition to his family's inherited Shin-Yin-ryu swordsmanship, Kamiizumi Yito also learned a set of battlefield gun techniques.
Bai Tianhe also nodded slightly. The theory of spear is similar to that of sword. His master Yu Chengen is known as the Sword Saint of Great Xia. In fact, he is also an excellent spearman in private. Bai Tianhe naturally practiced this skill a lot.
Who wouldn’t come back with a sudden move?
Qi Ji defeated his opponent and was replaced by Kamiizumi Yiren.
And his opponent was actually a sixth-dan.
Qin Zijin saw Qi Ji returning to his seat and immediately handed him a drink that would help him recover his strength. He smiled and said, "Congratulations on your victory. It's really cool to attack alone. It's a good start for us."
Qi Ji took the drink and drank it all, then calmly sat in the chair and said easily: "When I first saw that man coming up with a big gun, I was really scared, but fortunately his level was limited."
On the field, the fight between Ueizumi Yito and his opponent had reached a fever pitch, with both sides suffering injuries. Of course, his opponent was more injured. After another round of attack, Ueizumi Yito finally seized the flaw, and with a chopped blow, he injured his opponent's forearm, forcing him to admit defeat and step down.
Shangquan Yiren also ran off the stage with a grin on his face, and found the treatment boss to manipulate the "Qi" for treatment. It took him a while to return to his seat.
When he saw Qi Ji, he couldn't help but complain: "Qi Ji-san, real sword fighting without protective gear is really dangerous! If I didn't have extraordinary power to recover from my injuries, I would definitely not participate again!"
Just as Kamiizumi Yito was speaking, Bai Tianhe, who had taken over from him, had already started fighting with the new challenger.
Bai Tianhe's opponent was also a sixth-level master!
This time, his opponent was using a long sword with a thin blade similar to a ring-handled sword. His strength was obviously not as good as Bai Tianhe's. He fell into a disadvantage as soon as the fight started, but he kept holding on and refused to fall.
Qi Ji frowned and couldn't help looking at Qin Zijin and asked, "Among the young masters from the outside world, are there so many who have reached the sixth stage?"
Qin Zijin also found it strange. She said hesitantly, "Although Donghua Continent is about the same size as Daxia in the inner domain, its population is less than 500 million. Even if their physiques are better due to the influence of the extraordinary factors and they are more martial than us, there shouldn't be many young people who have reached the fifth stage or above."
Qi Ji nodded, perhaps he was overthinking it.
On the stage, although Bai Tianhe is only slightly stronger than Shangquan Yiren under normal circumstances, he has sword intent and seems to have been mentally prepared for the competition without protective gear.
His sword strikes were fierce and swift. Even though his opponent was also at the sixth level and defended desperately, he was still defeated and fell to the ground with a single move of his Mantis Sword.
Bai Tianhe was not injured except for being slightly out of breath.
So he simply didn't come down and continued to stand on the stage waiting for the next enemy.
This time, Qi Ji saw through the enemy as soon as he made a move.
It’s definitely another six sections!
"This is not right!" Qin Zijin, who was standing next to him, straightened up suddenly : "Sixth Stage shouldn't appear at this frequency!"
How can there be such a thing one after another, when people under the age of 30 are considered cabbages?
Su Jingqiu suddenly said, "Someone should be teaming up to target us. I've seen four of the current contestants at level 6, and they have moves from the Liaoyuan Sect, the Divine Sword Building, and the Demon Exorcist Association that just entered the game."
She continued, "These three groups have probably joined forces to make a big fool of our Jiange."
Qi Ji looked at the stage seriously. This time, Bai Tianhe used several consecutive moves of the Mantis Sword to successfully defeat his opponent. The weapon used by his opponent was actually a steel mace. During the battle, it only collided with Bai Tianhe's weapon a few times, causing Bai Tianhe's weapon to deform.
Iron whips and steel maces are both rogue weapons known as weapon destroyers.
The round ended, Bai Tianhe walked off the stage to pick up a new sword, and looked like he was breathing a little badly.
Qi Ji asked softly: "Xiao Bai, are you okay? Do you want me or Shangquan Yiren to take over and take a rest?"
Bai Tianhe drank the drink Qin Zijin handed him in one gulp and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Not bad, I can still fight two more."
Qi Ji nodded: "Okay, don't force yourself."
Bai Tianhe nodded, picked up his sword and went on the field again.
…
Two hours later, Shangquan Yiren, who was defeated for the first time on the stage, was carried down. His opponent this time was Liaoyuan Zong who used a spear. Due to excessive physical consumption, even though Shangquan Yiren also used a spear this time, he was still defeated by the opponent's unique skill of continuous high-speed stabbing.
"It's so embarrassing... I'm sorry... I brought shame to Qi Ji-san." Shangquan Yiren, who was about to be carried away for treatment, smiled bitterly and apologized to Qi Ji.
Qi Ji nodded slightly approvingly to Shangquan Yiren: "I recognize your efforts, you have done well enough."
Bai Tianhe, on the other hand, was sweating profusely and sat silently beside Qi Ji to rest. He was so tired that he couldn't even hold the sword.
During these two hours, the Jiange arena welcomed twenty-three fifth- and sixth-level challengers in succession!
Including the previous four, there are a total of twenty-seven challengers, all of whom are above the fifth dan level.
What a concept! According to Qin Zijin, more than 60% of the young masters have chosen the Jiange Arena as their goal!
There are clearly seven arenas, but most of the masters are attacking the Jiange Arena.
In the round-robin battle, even Bai Tianhe, who is extremely talented and almost invincible in the same level, and Kamiizumi Yiren, the champion of this year's Newcomer Award in Sakura Country, have now fallen down due to exhaustion.
Although the extraordinary healers can completely heal the injuries of the two and prevent them from suffering hidden injuries, according to the regulations, they are not allowed to restore the physical strength of the defender.
Qin Zijin has urgently reported the situation to the upper echelons of Jiange and communicated with the logistics team.
The Jiange Logistics Team also gave an urgent reply - although they were the organizer, they were powerless. Since the inception of the Sword and Martial Arts Competition, there has been no such restriction on challenging specific arenas. It is the freedom of each participant to challenge which arena they want.
If Jiange suddenly came out and said that no one is allowed to challenge the Jiange arena anymore, it would be a complete loss of face.
Qin Zijin bit her lips hard, wishing she could replace Bai Tianhe or Shangquan Yiren, but unfortunately she couldn't.
She turned her gaze to Qi Ji. This guy was obviously the one who fought most frequently, but at the moment he only had a little sweat on his forehead and didn't seem to be very tired.
Among the 27 attackers just now, Qi Ji had been taking turns to compete and defeated a total of 12 enemies. In terms of physical energy consumption, Qi Ji should be the one who consumed the most energy among the three.
She said worriedly, "Qi Ji, if it really doesn't work, let the senior sister take the stage. Don't worry about whether it's a big deal or not, or whether it's embarrassing or not."
Beside her, Su Jingqiu had already sat up straight and said softly, "Okay, you take a rest, I'll do it."
Obviously, she agreed very much with Qin Zijin's suggestion.
Qi Ji pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked Qin Zijin: "Do you still remember the match between the two of us in the rookie game?"
Qin Zijin was stunned for a moment: "I remember, what's wrong?"
Su Jingqiu was also confused. Why was this inner realm genius talking about other things at this time?
Qi Ji suddenly smiled: "I said that day - 'I can fight like this all day long'!"
Qi Ji continued to laugh and said, "It's the same now. I can beat these chickens and dogs all day long."
Qin Zijin was stunned. Looking at Qi Ji's wanton smile, he felt his heart beating too fast.
Su Jingqiu next to him frowned. Her tone did not show contempt, but rather a hint of concern: "Qi Ji, it's good to be confident, but you really don't need to force yourself. I don't mind playing now."
Qi Ji looked at Su Jingqiu and said with a chuckle, "Big Sister, do you mind going on stage now..."
"But I do mind."
He pointed at Bai Tianhe next to him and Shangquan Yiren who was receiving treatment not far away: "They both care about it too!"
"We came here to serve as external aid to the Sword Pavilion to defend the ring. We came here to let the people from the outside world see that the geniuses in the inner world are no worse than them. We are not here to be a burden."
"If you go on stage now, it means the three of us are no longer capable."
Qi Ji put away his smile, his eyes revealed a cold look: "I don't care whether these people are targeting Jian Ge or the three of us who came from the inner domain. Now, the slap is about to hit me in the face."
He seemed to be talking to himself: "Why should I give in now?"
Qi Ji shook his head slightly, picked up a new long sword and stood up from his seat.
He said softly to Su Jingqiu: "I would rather be beaten down on stage than admit defeat."
After saying that, Qi Ji turned around and his expression became silent.
Playing a round-robin game, right?
So that you may know your lack of knowledge of my physical strength.
The game time is over, now it's time to show you the gap between you and me.
Amid the noise of tens of thousands of onlookers, and in the surprised gaze of the Liaoyuan Sect's spearman on the ring.
Qi Ji stepped onto the stage again.
According to the competition rules, Jiange Arena will have to deal with at least thirteen challengers today.
