Yu
Chapter 592 Point Taken?
"Woah, woah, woah!" Ma Ke looked at the scene on the field with shock and disbelief.
The match had just begun, before the cherry blossoms could even fall, Saito Nobuyuki was already moving with wind and rain, drawing a cherry blossom in his wake. It was difficult to see his movements clearly, but the path of the falling cherry blossom revealed his trajectory.
Jiang Xiao raised his giant blade, a cyan glow appearing on the blade, and Saito Nobuyuki was blasted away!
Jiang Xiao raised his left hand and threw out a Silence. Saito Nobuyuki, who was rapidly flying backwards, flashed, his body as ethereal as a ghost, and reappeared on the ground.
It was from this moment on that cherry blossoms rained down in this vast green field, within this iron cage.
He could not only dodge blessings, but even this rapidly shuttling figure could evade a large-area Silence domain!
Saito Nobuyuki's figure disappeared again, but Jiang Xiao directly threw a Silence at his own feet.
"Hmm."
"Cough cough." Both of them made strange guttural sounds, a consequence of being slammed by Silence.
Within this Silence domain, the katana and the giant blade intertwined, a spectacle of flashing blades that left everyone dumbfounded.
Was this a live demonstration?
Saito Nobuyuki's movements were incredibly fast. Even without the support of the cherry blossom domain, he still held an absolute advantage in speed.
Jiang Xiao, however, stood firmly in place, his giant blade moving horizontally and vertically, blocking in front and behind his body, actually withstanding Saito Nobuyuki's continuous attacks.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of weapons colliding was quite crisp, and occasionally sparks could be seen.
Within the short ten seconds of the Silence domain, Saito Nobuyuki's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Under the onslaught of the surrounding katanas, Jiang Xiao seemed to enter a "snowfield state." His eyes lost their usual sparkle, becoming devoid of any light, and his expression became lifeless.
In the nearly 50,000-seat stadium, the roar grew louder and louder. Such an intense close-quarters battle filled people with passion and excitement.
What puzzled the Star Warriors was that the ten seconds of Silence had passed, but the two seemed to have forgotten that they possessed Star Techniques, and were still sparring on the western half of the field.
In a small auditorium in a hotel in Edo, Hou Mingming clenched her fists, watching the back-and-forth between the two on the screen. This was the root of her failure. She couldn't stop Saito Nobuyuki from closing in, and she couldn't even withstand the storm of attacks, so she could only entrust her fate to the bombardment of arrow rain.
Jiang Xiao proved with his actions that he was different from her. Even if he didn't use any Star Techniques, even if his physical fitness was somewhat inferior to his opponent, he still defended tightly. Even a sudden step back, a light lift of his elbow, pushed Saito Nobuyuki back several steps, causing his chest to churn with blood!
Finally, Saito Nobuyuki changed his battle tactics. His body flashed, and a cherry blossom path reappeared, with petals scattering down the path. He returned to the eastern half of the field where he had stood at the beginning of the match.
The 30 seconds of close combat had captivated the audience, making them feel as if only 10 seconds had passed. Time passed so quickly.
Jiang Xiao held his blade horizontally, dragging the giant blade in his hand, looking at Saito Nobuyuki from afar, and gently shook his head.
Saito Nobuyuki's expression turned angry. Ever since the trash-talking segment began, Saito Nobuyuki's emotions had not been very stable.
The red tide behind Jiang Xiao had cracked his tough exterior, and Jiang Xiao's subsequent trash talk had also stirred up Saito Nobuyuki's inner emotions.
Now, Jiang Xiao's silent, gentle shake of his head was so hateful and so provocative.
Immediately afterwards, Saito Nobuyuki's figure flashed again.
Jiang Xiao threw another Silence down, but... judging from the path of the falling cherry blossoms, Saito Nobuyuki had turned back.
Jiang Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, his figure rapidly retreating. Saito Nobuyuki waved the katana in his hand repeatedly, and one cherry blossom after another suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Xiao, and then exploded.
"Hmm?" Jiang Xiao's retreating figure paused slightly, he pushed off with his feet, blocked his face with his left hand, and leaped backwards in an almost supine position. Behind him, cherry blossoms silently appeared and exploded, directly blasting him out of the Silence domain.
The next moment, a flash of blade light.
The person arrived first, the flowers fell later.
The instant Jiang Xiao left the Silence domain, his body disappeared abruptly, and he stood directly on top of the iron cage.
"Hmph." Saito Nobuyuki swung his katana, but his strike missed. He couldn't help but snort coldly, quickly turning to find his enemy.
Jiang Xiao also appeared on his left.
Clang!
The giant blade collided with the katana again, and Saito Nobuyuki's expression changed! He only felt that he had consumed a lot of stamina, and his Star power had also dissipated somewhat!
In front of him, at Jiang Xiao's feet, a halo of attachment had already been stepped out.
Saito Nobuyuki's pupils constricted slightly. He didn't meet Jiang Xiao's second slash at all, but instead, his figure moved away at high speed.
Jiang Xiao's figure also flashed, directly appearing at the location where Saito Nobuyuki had stopped!
The following scene was unacceptable.
On this green field covered in cherry blossoms, the figures of the two were elusive.
One second they were fighting in the bottom corner of the western half of the field, the next second they were entangled in the center line, and the next second, the battlefield had shifted to the baseline on the eastern side.
When the two appeared, there would inevitably be 1-2 exchanges of swords, and when the two disappeared, everyone was looking for them and secretly guessing where they would appear...
The online broadcast room was already a boil.
Such a scene of battle was truly a visual feast. After all, on the World Cup stage, there were a few who could move at high speed, but only one who could teleport and pursue.
"This... this is... what is this?"
"Oh my god, these two are fighting out the charm of Wuxia in a world of fantasy..."
"Is Pi God chasing Gu Xinzhi? Am I seeing things? Is there anyone who can see clearly? Who has the upper hand, who is chasing who?"
Among the massive barrage of comments, one pointed directly to the key: "Pi God is trying to grind Gu Xinzhi to death."
On the field, Saito Nobuyuki naturally felt this as well. Every time the weapons collided, he would lose some stamina and Star power. If this continued, he would only meet with defeat.
So Saito Nobuyuki went berserk.
When the two suddenly appeared at the sideline on the eastern side of the field, the cherry blossoms exploded in their location.
Rumble...
In that instant, Jiang Xiao subconsciously teleported away, and stepped onto the top of the ten-meter-high iron cage again.
On Saito Nobuyuki's body, a layer of cherry blossoms fell. In this violent explosion, he was unscathed.
Saito Nobuyuki stretched out a hand, and a layer of cherry blossom petals quietly pieced together, scattering around his body like a pink and white cherry blossom armor.
And those delicate petals were not as fragile as people imagined.
Rumble!
At Jiang Xiao's feet, the cherry blossoms exploded again.
Jiang Xiao's body flashed, directly appearing to the right rear of Saito Nobuyuki, and slashed down again. Saito Nobuyuki did not use his weapon to resist, but instead seemed to be exchanging injury for injury, stabbing the katana towards Jiang Xiao's left eye.
Jiang Xiao's head tilted violently. Under the slash of the giant blade, the cherry blossom armor was directly cleaved open, but... the cherry blossom armor, which was slightly away from Saito Nobuyuki's body, did not provide Jiang Xiao with any stamina, only a very small amount of Star power.
A detached-type defensive Star Technique.
Jiang Xiao nodded in his heart. He knew the other party's Star Technique very well and was not surprised. It was just that the other party found a way to deal with it so quickly, and his combat IQ was indeed good.
Saito Nobuyuki's blade, which was stabbing towards Jiang Xiao's left eye, was dodged by Jiang Xiao. The cold blade brushed past Jiang Xiao's temple. Saito Nobuyuki twisted his wrist, and the katana slashed horizontally.
At the same time, the cherry blossom petals that fell on Jiang Xiao's left side exploded again.
Swish... Jiang Xiao's figure flashed again.
The dazzling and thrilling battle finally came to a slight pause.
In the second phase of the battle, Jiang Xiao seemed to have the upper hand?
Saito Nobuyuki stood on the field, looked up at Jiang Xiao standing on the iron cage, and waved the katana in his hand again.
Rumble!
The sound of explosions accompanied the sound of thunder!
At some point, the sky was covered with dark clouds.
Saito Nobuyuki's expression changed, and he raised his left hand. A set of detached cherry blossom armor appeared again. This time, it was not just blocking in front of his chest, but from head to toe, piecing together a complete set of cherry blossom armor.
Jiang Xiao, who appeared in the bottom corner of the western side, had red eyes: "I hate this Star Technique."
Saito Nobuyuki's body was covered in cherry blossom armor, and his figure became much larger, like a two-and-a-half-meter giant. The sharp katana in his hand was also entangled with cherry blossoms, turning into a huge cherry blossom blade.
Saito Nobuyuki said, "It's useless against me."
Ding~
A bell chime pressed against his chest. Jiang Xiao looked at Saito Nobuyuki from afar, but did not move at all.
The pitter-patter of wounded tear rain fell on the other party's huge cherry blossom armor. Even though it couldn't harm the person inside, under the guidance of the halo of attachment, the wounded tear rain still continuously transmitted the Star power on the cherry blossom armor to Jiang Xiao.
Saito Nobuyuki felt that something was wrong after saying that sentence.
In the end,
The opponent was not a melee fighter, but a medical support!
Support Star Warriors' Star Techniques include healing, sustain, and weakening!
Saito Nobuyuki gritted his teeth and roared. The cherry blossoms floating around Jiang Xiao's body exploded again.
Swish...
Jiang Xiao's figure flashed, standing on the iron cage again, a bell chime pressed against his chest, and the pitter-patter rain turned into a downpour.
In the iron cage, the cherry blossoms, which could originally float gently in the air, were heavily slapped onto the green grass by the heavy rain...
Jiang Xiao lowered his head and looked at the huge cherry blossom armor warrior through the iron cage mesh.
Under the tear rain, Jiang Xiao's mood was very bad, and his voice was a bit gloomy: "I don't need to stop there."
