Volume 3: The World's Strongest Chapter 14: How strong can humans be?
If one does not work in a related profession, it is difficult for one to understand how strong those people who have reached the top of their profession are.
For example, military attack.
The audience present usually sees martial arts fighters fighting one-on-one on the stage, and often because the matches end too quickly, it is inevitable that some of them cannot understand.
What's worse, if only low-level players of ordinary ranks were competing on the stage, people who don't understand the difficulty of the fight might even think that these people look messy and ugly when they fight.
The matches that look truly exciting usually only occur between masters of the same level above the eighth level.
Experts above the eighth level have already mastered the art of using their sixth sense to assist in combat. They can instinctively dodge or block some of their opponent's powerful attacks and rarely lose due to negligence.
Under this premise, the exquisiteness of their own skills can be fully demonstrated in front of the audience , letting the audience know that what they are watching is indeed an extremely exciting battle.
And when Qi Ji, a true top master above the eighth level, began to demonstrate his strength in another way, the non-professionals at the scene finally began to feel the gap.
The gap between ordinary people and martial arts masters.
Even the five attackers were not ordinary people, but martial arts masters who were at the fifth level.
Five fifth-level masters, some holding knives and some holding swords, rushed towards Qi Ji at a speed that ordinary people could hardly keep up with.
The next moment, they dispersed suddenly when they were almost in silence, just like when the three of them attacked just now.
Two people rushed straight towards Qi Ji, trying to entangle him, while the other three split into two groups, one on the left and two on the right, trying to bypass Qi Ji and rush straight towards the employer actor behind him.
Qi Ji quickly glanced back and confirmed that the actor playing the employer was 20 meters behind him, so he shouted: "Run to your left!"
The employer actor did so immediately.
The next second, Qi Ji and the person he was going to protect behind him ran to the left in parallel and immediately stopped the attacker who wanted to bypass from the left.
The attacker immediately held the sword with both hands and assumed the Bull Stance of Meyer's swordplay, a move that was well suited for defending against the opponent's upper attack.
It seems that this person just observed Qi Ji's attack habits and initially concluded that Qi Ji likes to attack people's heads.
As he wished, Qi Ji slashed with a standard straight chop the moment the two of them came into contact. The attacker was delighted when he saw this, and immediately drew his sword and pushed it out, using the strong sword body to hit the upper half of Qi Ji's blade.
As soon as the blades of both sides touched, Qi Ji's opponent felt that the force he imagined did not appear. Just as a thought of something bad happened, he saw Qi Ji's wrist quickly turned, and a forward chop turned into a reverse slash and instantly hit his abdomen.
The attacker gritted his teeth and swung his sword with all his might, intending to use the "back strike" to kill both him and Qi Ji.
However, Qi Ji, who was prepared, raised his sword to block it.
Kill one person!
At the same time, as several people changed their footsteps at the same time, Qi Ji once again blocked himself between the attacker and the person being protected.
The next second, two enemies came towards him and swung their swords at Qi Ji from the left and right almost at the same time.
This was the first time since the start of the game that Qi Ji faced two people head-on!
The audience was sweating on their vests and couldn't help clenching their fists.
Facing the simultaneous attacks from two people, Qi Ji bravely met them head-on, with a calm smile on his face beneath the mask.
The next second, he swung his sword four times repeatedly to the left and right, changing his footsteps almost within one second!
Ding ding!
Boom boom!
The first and second swords slashed left and right, knocking the weapons of the two people away!
The third and fourth strikes hit the two attackers in the ribs!
When the two weapons fell to the ground, Qi Ji had already passed between the two stunned people.
Then, he met two other people who were running after him.
The two men saw Qi Ji pass out from between the two teammates in front of them, and they didn't even realize that their teammates had been defeated.
Because of the difference in leg strength, they are now walking one in front and one behind.
This is just convenient for Qi Ji!
As he ran, he performed Meyer's sword technique "Rage Style", quickly accumulating strength, and in just a moment he stepped forward and launched a terrifying furious attack.
The attacker hastily raised his knife to block, but the moment the two knives collided, he was violently shaken by a tremendous force, his palm became numb instantly, and the weapon was instantly chopped away.
The next second, Qi Ji did not stop, dragging the knife horizontally while running, and the blade smoothly slashed across the enemy's visor.
The last person saw the situation reversed in an instant, and his running momentum was stagnant and he stopped.
He faced Qi Ji nervously, holding the sword tightly in both hands, thinking that he must not let Qi Ji knock his weapon away.
Qi Ji didn't want to waste his energy trying to knock down his opponent's weapon. Instead, he changed to the hidden blade style while running, also known as the dragging sword style, or the long tail style in Meyer's swordsmanship.
He approached the last opponent in almost a second.
The next moment, facing the nervous opponent, Qi Ji smiled and took the initiative to wave his hand to hand over a knife, but at the moment when the opponent drew his knife to fight, he instantly turned his wrist to suppress the sword, then stepped forward, blocked the opponent's sword blade with a cross sword guard, and then pushed his hand and stabbed the opponent in the chest with a sword.
All five were killed!
I'm afraid it won't even take twenty seconds.
There was an uproar in the audience, and everyone couldn't help but whisper in exclamation when the attacker left the field.
The scene of Qi Ji "killing" the five attackers cleanly and swiftly really gave a huge shock to these ordinary people who usually lead a comfortable life.
"It's just like watching a movie..." The vice president sent by Penguin to attend the event as a friendly gesture muttered to himself as he looked at Qi Ji who was standing there calmly.
“With a person like this as a bodyguard, there’s no place in Daxia that you can’t go.” On the other side, the senior representative’s eyes were filled with amazement as he spoke in rhythmic syllables.
Indeed, in Daxia, where guns are strictly prohibited, having an eighth-level martial arts master as a bodyguard can basically ensure one's own safety.
Even in Northern Europe and the United States where people are free to carry guns, having a guard like this expert is much better than having no guard at all.
"How much would it cost to hire someone of Qi Ji's caliber as a bodyguard for an important event?"
Representatives of industrial giants such as Xia Wei, Xiaomai, and DYD all waved to their subordinates and asked them to inquire about the price of hiring an eighth-level master to do security work.
On the field, Qi Ji saw that no one was sent out immediately this time, so he looked at the referee curiously: "Where is the next wave of players?"
The referee looked at Qi Ji with admiration and said seriously, "The next two matches will be high-difficulty matches of one against seven or even one against nine. The players will be given as much rest time as possible. The next round of attacks will be launched in two minutes."
"All right."
Qi Ji obviously didn't need to rest. This amount of exercise was barely enough for him to be considered a warm-up.
He returned to his "employer", gently placed his straight knife on the ground, and waited for the next wave of opponents to attack.
Two minutes passed quickly, and with the referee's order, seven people rushed out from the other end of the training ground!
This time, the crowd of people seemed a bit overwhelming.
In the lounge, Pei Xingjian watched Qi Ji facing this large group of people on the big screen. His eyes moved slightly, as if he was thinking about how to break the impasse in this situation.
If I were alone and facing seven fifth-level opponents, I could easily defeat them with just mobile warfare.
However, this assessment is not just about oneself, one also needs to protect an "employer", which forces the guards to take the initiative and knock down the attacker as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, if I am alone and don't know how to clone myself, as long as the enemy successfully splits up and bypasses me, the employer will be hit and fail.
How will Qi Ji resolve this situation?
On the other side, in the lounge of Longchang, Jiang Biwu and Lu Siliang's faces were not so good. Jiang Biwu was better. He was confident that if he went up, he could divide and defeat the enemies through mobile warfare. However, he was also worried that if these people avoided him and focused on attacking his "employer" like they did to Qi Ji, he didn't know what to do.
Lu Siliang had no idea at all. He did have the confidence that he could fight against seven level five warriors in mobile warfare, but it was still a stretch. These people didn't even need to split up, they just needed to stick together and keep pressing forward. He had no choice but to admit defeat.
Qi Ji responded quickly. This time, he did not wait for the other party to divide their forces. He actually took the initiative to meet the seven attackers!
How dare he!?
The audiences in the audience couldn't help but worry for Qi Ji. They had never seen such a scene except in movies.
The attackers were not affected by Qi Ji's actions. This time, two of them took a detour, while the other five faced Qi Ji head-on.
Their actions are all planned in advance and they will not change their strategies because of their opponents' actions.
"Run to the right!" Qi Ji shouted and gave the "employer" a movement instruction. The next second, he also ran to the right, targeting the two people who had been separated.
He planned to repeat the same trick.
After a few seconds, he successfully defeated the two "alone" people.
Turning around, this time the remaining five attackers were no longer scattered, but formed a strict formation and rushed towards Qi Ji at once - strictly speaking, they were rushing towards the employer actor behind Qi Ji.
When Qi Ji saw this scene, he couldn't help but frown.
The plan of mobile warfare, dividing the enemy's ranks and defeating them one by one was no longer feasible at this moment.
Qi Ji had no other choice but to attack head-on.
Qi Ji paused, a helpless expression appearing on his face beneath the helmet.
It seems that I have to show some real skills.
He let out a sigh of relief and stood still as the five opponents rushed towards him.
The next second, a manic and fierce aura burst out from Qi Ji.
The method of nourishing the meridians is fierce!
The mighty force of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood pressed down on the five swiftly advancing opponents as if it were real.
Several people were shocked by the momentum and even slowed down their pace unconsciously.
Qi Ji lowered his body and pulled back the straight knife in his right hand.
Just as several attackers raised their weapons and were on alert.
Kui Ren thrusts!
Qi Ji suddenly pushed off the ground at an incredible speed, and his whole body almost turned into an afterimage. In a moment, he rushed in front of one of the enemies!
The enemy he locked onto didn't even have time to react before Qi Ji stabbed him in the abdomen and sent him flying backwards.
Not only was he sent flying, but the five men were originally arranged in a tight formation with three in front and two in the back. Now he, the man in the middle of the front row, was thrown flying and hit directly backwards onto the two men who were following closely behind him.
The whole scene was like the start of a billiard game. Qi Ji, the white ball, slammed into the formation fiercely, knocking all the other colored balls into pieces with just one move.
Although the formation was broken, the two people on the left and right in the front row were not affected. They reacted very quickly. When they saw Qi Ji appear in front of them almost in a sliding posture, they immediately raised their weapons and slashed at him.
But Qi Ji's figure disappeared from their sight in an instant!
