Wo Chi Xi Hong Shi

Chapter 89 Such a Shifu

Chapter 200 Breaking Through

"Yi-jie, I'll hold him off. You look for an opportunity," Xu Jingming said in the team voice chat, his eyes fixed on his master, Liu Hai. At the same time, he reached behind him and took out a pair of shields, one in each hand. Xu Jingming took a few steps, blocking between his master and Yi-jie.

"Using shields?" Liu Hai chuckled and suddenly took a step forward.

His burly figure blurred as he charged straight at Xu Jingming. This scene shocked Xu Jingming. "So fast! Much faster than me."

The moment Liu Hai reached him, Xu Jingming also charged forward, slamming both shields forward as if to push open the sky.

Whoosh!

Liu Hai's figure flashed, as if moving horizontally, arriving at Xu Jingming's side. A flash of the blade descended.

"Bang!" Xu Jingming slightly retracted his left shield, intercepting the strike.

Shields were extremely adept at defense. Even ordinary people who knew nothing could block a large area with two shields in front of them. For an expert like Xu Jingming, he could seal off the enemy's attack angles with a slight movement of the shield.

"Bang, bang, bang!" But the blade didn't stop, delivering three consecutive strikes. Each strike was fiercely powerful, landing on the left shield, causing Xu Jingming to feel the shield tremble and his arm go a little numb. Just as Xu Jingming was about to deflect the fourth strike,

The moment this fourth strike came down, it strangely stuck to Xu Jingming's shield, causing Xu Jingming's attempt to deflect it to fail. Xu Jingming's expression changed slightly, but the clinging blade suddenly exerted force, causing Xu Jingming's shield to shake open. However, Xu Jingming reacted quickly, and his right shield immediately came together, blocking the blade that wanted to attack.

"Bang! Bang! Whoosh! Clang!"

The blade flashed, seemingly identical, but the sound of the collision with the shield was different. The different impact sounds represented different force techniques, making Xu Jingming very uncomfortable. He felt as if he was caught in an undercurrent, an undercurrent that surged, and the different blade techniques made him a little overwhelmed.

"My techniques of borrowing and deflecting are useless; they're even making me a little confused," Xu Jingming realized. "I can only attack head-on, using *Beng* strength to instantly disrupt Master's blade techniques, while the dual shields compensate for defensive flaws."

In an instant, Xu Jingming's shield techniques changed.

His defensive shield techniques were also extremely fierce. The moment the blade and shield collided, the shield suddenly exerted force, either colliding head-on, pressing down, or slashing! Every weapon collision made Liu Hai feel that the shield in front of him was like a rotating reef, rotating clockwise or counterclockwise, and sometimes even actively colliding.

"Interesting." Even so, Liu Hai still used his blade to suppress Xu Jingming, teasing him and tearing at Xu Jingming's dual-shield defense.



In the official Xia Nation live broadcast room, countless people were watching this battle.

When Liu Hai charged towards Xu Jingming, countless viewers were excited! Here it comes, here it comes; the peak battle they had been looking forward to was here!

"Xu Jingming, don't get one-shotted!"

"Block a few strikes!"

The audience watched nervously.

Liu Hai's blade light, like white silk, seemed identical, but the strength was completely different. There was hardness, softness, yin, and yang changes. Xu Jingming, holding his dual shields, became somewhat chaotic and began to show flaws. But immediately afterward, Xu Jingming's shield techniques changed, becoming extremely fierce, attacking head-on with every move! He fiercely attacked a large area in front of him.

Under the fierce shield techniques, Liu Hai's blade was still suppressing and pulling, but with the dual shields working together, the defense stabilized, and he couldn't break through for a while.

"Fierceness is the key!"

"Xu Jingming, it has to be this fierce. A fierce shield technique is hard to break."

"Haha, Xu Jingming blocked it; this is going to be exciting."

The audience was increasingly looking forward to seeing a turning point in the battle.

"Bajiquan is good at close combat." Xu Hong, who had been eliminated, was with his wife. He looked up at the battle and nodded in satisfaction. "Close-range power exertion is especially good. Even the captain won't find it easy to break Jingming's shield technique."

This was the difference in fighting style.

Shield techniques were good at defense, and Bajiquan was good at close combat. When the two were combined… within three feet, Xu Jingming's dual shields were extremely fierce. Even Liu Hai, with a single blade, found it difficult to break through the dual shields.



Mountain forest map.

As Liu Hai hacked at Xu Jingming, Wang Yi, who was fifty meters away, stood behind a large tree and raised her hand to fire an arrow!

"咻."

Wang Yi, with her high-level evolutionary method and third-order swordsmanship, now had terrifying arrow speed.

"Hmm?" Liu Hai, who had been paying attention to Wang Yi, frowned slightly and dodged the arrow. The arrow shot into the tree trunk behind him, causing the tree to explode and break, falling down with a crash.

"Wang Yi's evolutionary method has also broken through; the arrow speed is fast enough," Liu Hai realized.

"咻." "咻." "咻."

At a distance of fifty meters, Wang Yi looked for opportunities and fired arrows again and again.

Liu Hai had to dodge after attacking Xu Jingming a few times.

"I can't focus all my attention on dealing with my disciple; I have to put more than half of my attention on that girl, Wang Yi," Liu Hai thought. "Letting a third-order archer shoot arrows while trying to kill Xu Jingming? Even I can't do that."

"If I'm careless and get hit by an arrow, I'll lose. My footwork can't compare to Lei Yunfang. Lei Yunfang fell." Liu Hai didn't dare to turn his back to Wang Yi casually; he had to keep her in sight and keep most of his attention on her.



"Wang Yi's arrow speed exceeds 700 meters per second; Liu Hai is a little panicked by that arrow speed."

"Having to deal with Xu Jingming while still being attacked by an archer, Liu Hai is still a little too arrogant."

"If he gets hit by an arrow, Liu Hai might lose the match."

Countless viewers could see that under the terrifying bow and arrow, Liu Hai was also dodging with all his might or trying his best to block with his blade.

The arrows were just too fast!

Even the number one player in the world needed to be careful of such arrows.

"That goddess archer's bow and arrow are quite powerful." The envoys from various countries in the Blue Star Alliance delegation watched the match and made their judgments. "That shield expert is also quite good at defending; he blocked Liu Hai's blade."

"A shield expert and a goddess archer; in our Sakura Country," the Sakura Country envoy said solemnly, "they would also be among the top three experts. Xia Nation is truly powerful; our Sakura Country still doesn't have anyone who has passed the third level of the Star Tower. The younger generation of Xia Nation is so powerful… we must make our people work harder. We have a small population; if we don't work harder, we will only fall further behind!"



Liu Hai suddenly took out a shield from behind, holding a shield in one hand and a blade in the other. This surprised Xu Jingming, who became more cautious. "Is Master going all out?"

Whoosh.

Liu Hai charged straight towards Wang Yi in the distance.

"What? He's not dealing with me; he's going after Yi-jie?" Xu Jingming was shocked and immediately followed.

"Coach Liu Hai is going to defeat us one by one?" Wang Yi panicked. "I thought he would be confident enough to let me shoot arrows."

Liu Hai's full-speed burst caused Xu Jingming, who was chasing behind, to fall further and further behind.

Wang Yi determined at a glance, "He's much faster than me; I can't escape."

"The only hope is an arrow."

Wang Yi instantly took out an armor-piercing arrow.

The armor-piercing arrow, combined with the large bow in her hand! It was enough to break through the light armor of these third-order experts.

"Ordinary arrows must hit the head. He has a large shield in front of him; I can't hit him at all. I can only use armor-piercing arrows… and at short range, I only have time for one armor-piercing arrow."

"I only have one chance."

Wang Yi stood calmly in place, her bow and arrow aimed at Liu Hai.

A distance of fifty meters was less than a second for Liu Hai to reach Wang Yi, but such a long time… for an archer of Wang Yi's level, she could turn her thoughts around several times.

She looked coldly at Liu Hai charging towards her with a blank expression.

Thirty meters, twenty meters… she allowed the distance to shrink.

"If I release the arrow within ten meters, I don't believe he can block it in time." Wang Yi waited for the best opportunity.

But when he rushed to fifteen meters, Liu Hai suddenly threw the blade in his hand, catching Wang Yi off guard. She almost instinctively released the arrow! Originally, she wanted to wait until the distance was seven or eight meters before releasing the arrow suddenly.

But Liu Hai was too cautious.

The blade thrown from a distance of fifteen meters was extremely fast. Wang Yi couldn't dodge in time and was struck, piercing through her body.

And Wang Yi shot that armor-piercing arrow. At a distance of fifteen meters, Liu Hai only slightly lowered his left hand a little to block the arrow.

"He must have practiced the trick of throwing the blade." Wang Yi's body turned illusory as she thought unwillingly, "This Coach Liu Hai is too cunning."

Liu Hai came to the place where the blade fell and picked it up.

"When charging straight at an archer, you always have to throw hidden weapons. It's just that there's no need to carry hidden weapons when dealing with juniors." Liu Hai was so accurate whether he threw a blade or a stone, and he had indeed practiced a hidden weapon technique.

It was just that he hadn't chosen it when selecting weapons and equipment for this competition.

He simply threw the blade at close range!

For him, he was confident that he could defeat any opponent one-on-one with a shield in one hand, so he threw the blade away.

"It's uncomfortable being watched by an archer all the time. It's much more comfortable now." Liu Hai held the shield in his left hand and the blade in his right hand, looking at his disciple Xu Jingming, who was charging towards him.

"Master, with your strength, is it necessary to be so cautious?" Xu Jingming couldn't help but say, "Do you have to eliminate the archer first when dealing with the two of us juniors?"

"Naive."

Liu Hai said in a private voice chat, "This is the National Competition final. Carelessness is a lifetime matter. Also, you have to remember… when fighting, use your brain more! There's no need to make things so difficult if it's not necessary, so why make the competition so hard?"

"Battles have to be stable! If you can win, try your best to win. Do you think your master was injured in the five consecutive competitions back then?" Liu Hai looked at Xu Jingming. "You little guy broke your leg in your first World Competition? That's because… I'm more stable."

"Being reckless makes it easy to stumble. You've suffered so much, haven't you learned your lesson?" Liu Hai looked at Xu Jingming. "Fighting isn't about being reckless; fighting strategy is also part of the Dao of Tai Chi."

Xu Jingming sighed inwardly. He was obviously so strong that he was the best in the world, yet he was so stable and careful. Could he defeat such a master?

"Come on, without the interference of the archer, I can give you better training." Liu Hai looked at Xu Jingming with a smile, looking very gentle.

Fan Qie just finished doing math with his son and found that the monthly votes had exceeded 35,000, so he had to add more chapters. He hurriedly coded until now, updating a chapter for everyone.

This monthly vote addition ends at 12:00 tonight.

Adding more chapters is still too much pressure for the current Fan Qie. Sweat…
