"Thank you everyone for selling me face. In the end, they all chose one-on-one."
At the same moment, among the endless bookshelves in the Void Library, a gray-robed magician named Duan Qing had just woken up from a tired and decadent state. He looked at the magic projection in front of him and smiled with a sense of contentment: " When they kept making trouble for me before and wanted to get rid of me, I thought my hatred in their hearts had reached the sky and they had used all kinds of methods."
"Ninglan's thoughts are different from those of sir." Ninglan, who was sitting on her knees and taking care of the work of taking care of her, put away the towel wiping his forehead and showed a touching smile that was inappropriate for the topic: "Ninglan actually felt that It's a good thing that they have resentment in their hearts, otherwise there would be no chance of this event being held, which means——"
"Does 'promoting love' all come from holding grudges?" With a wry smile, Duan Qing said what the maid player had not finished. Duan Qing waved his hand and climbed up from the stone bed where he was resting: "Maybe it's because he can't save the last face, or maybe it's secretly What kind of calculations and reasons are there? In short, the situation of swarming five on one and five on five has not happened yet. "
"It's a pity that the audience couldn't feast their eyes on the battle." Ciyu Ninglan tilted her head and replied: "If it were those real villains, they would have ignored all the rules and just rushed in. Come on...hehe, Ninglan really wants to see such a grand event happen."
"So this choice is actually very risky."
Holding his head and smiling casually, Duan Qing set his sights on the endless darkness above the Void Library: "Forcing the battlefield to be on the front line is simply exposing the fattest pieces of meat to those wild beasts. In front of the wolf, can they bear not to pounce?"
"Maybe they haven't reacted yet, or they are waiting for the opportunity." Dark Language Ninglan smiled and pointed at the beautiful back of Snow Spirit Huanbing on the magic screen: "Maybe they are observing every corner of the battlefield like us. Wait for the husband to reveal his flaws before taking action... Well, no wonder Miss Lingbing rushed back impatiently and insisted on fighting in his place."
"I emphasize again, she did not play in my place, otherwise those who finally made it to the finals would not give up." Duan Qing pressed his forehead and replied helplessly: "Of course, if she has the eloquence and chips, she can I won’t have any objections to convincing those representatives participating in the war to agree to a duel with her.”
"Miss Lingbing's performance was very good before. What else do you have to worry about, sir?" Enyu Ninglan covered her mouth and said with a sweet smile, "It is truly a blessing for me to have such a young lady as my partner."
"Hu, what are you talking about?" The old gray-robed magician blushed, and his expression became a bit embarrassed: "I, between us... ahem, in short, it's not decided yet, she... that... she hasn't either It was clearly stated..."
"Ninglan knows, Ninglan will help you sir." She covered her mouth and snickered, interrupting the hesitant words of the man in front of her. Ninglan smiled and made a cheering gesture: "Ninglan will also find a way to continue to create. If you have the opportunity, try to let me continue to be in the limelight and win more attention from Miss Lingbing. I will definitely win!"
"Why do these words sound so familiar?" Duan Qing coughed to hide his embarrassed smile, and shook his eyes from side to side in an attempt to change the topic: "You said it so skillfully, have you told it to other men?"
"What are you talking about, sir? Ninglan is wholeheartedly devoted to you." Ninglan covered her mouth and replied with a chuckle: "As for why it sounds familiar... Well, maybe it's because Ninglan said the same thing three years ago. Right, but the target at that time was Miss Yushang——"
"stop!"
Finally unable to withstand the gentle teasing words of the delicate and smart maid player in front of him, Duan Qing raised his hand to intercept all the voices in mid-air: "Anyway, I have to prepare for the next battle! I I need to restore my physical strength and magic power, and replenish some of the magic potion that was consumed before..."
"Is there anything Ninglan can help with?" Encrypted Ninglan asked with a smile: "Do we still need Ninglan to collect some 'void matter'?"
"It's not needed for the time being." Duan Qing, who seemed to be reminded by the words spoken by the other party, frowned for a while before shaking his head: "That thing is only useful in certain special times. It was only used in response to the situation before. He used Duan Feng Lei twice... Hehe, if he hadn't used it the first and last time when breaking through his body-protecting Qi, he probably wouldn't have been wary and cautious until the last moment. The direction of the battle might have been different. There will also be changes.”
"Sir, you are really a bad person. He scares people with things like this every day." Encrypted Ninglan replied with a smile: "If Duan Fenglei knew the truth, he would definitely be even more angry than he is now."
"By the way, what happened to him later?" Duan Qing turned his attention to the maid: "I waited there for a long time, thinking that he would definitely come back and continue to fight, but -"
"According to Miss Yushang and other members in charge of the organization, the president of Jianghu should have voluntarily given up on the idea of continuing the competition and returned to the principality with his subordinates." The secret language Ninglan explained in time: "Although the flowers are blooming Sijin and the others were also very surprised, but they quickly announced the results of the competition and announced that you, sir, had won, and——"
"Ladies and gentlemen! I've kept everyone waiting!" A harsh announcement belonging to Blossoms then lit up on the magic screen above, muting the voice of the maid player who was about to continue reporting: "The intermission is over. It’s over, and the arrangements for the next game have been decided! Let’s turn the camera to the east of the continent, not far from the beautiful coast of the Endless Sea, along the wonderful Star Flower Plain extending to the edge of the mountains!”
"There, our beautiful and freezing Snow Spirit Huan Bing lady is about to face the second best vice-president in the world, Yun Jing Bu!"
The deliberately prolonged announcement did not attract cheers from the audience, but instead caused a series of surprises and uproar. Xue Ling Huan Bing and Yun Jingbu, who had become the focus of the crowd, had already made a series of brief introductions and After the exchange, they stood on both sides of the canyon entrance: "So this is your final decision?"
】
"Let me explain in advance, we are not here for you, the beautiful young lady."
Raising his hands in an innocent gesture, Yun Jingbu, who was dressed in short black clothes, lifted the cloak behind him: "In order to support the new alliance and prove my own ideas, my companions and I stand I am on this stage, not because I want to fight you at such a critical moment, but because I want to face that legendary man and learn from him."
"I said, he needs to rest." Xue Ling Huan Bing's expression remained unchanged as she stood there, just like her tough attitude that remained unchanged at this time: "When the final schedule and rules were first announced, I strongly opposed it. This kind of almost endless wheel battle, and forcing the battle into the enemy's heartland...Humph, in short, I am standing here for him, not to break the rules, but to gain some breathing space."
"Anyway, if I can't beat you, let alone beat that person, right?" Yun Jingbu, who understood the implications of the other person's words and took off his weapon, smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter, I don't mind either. Playing one more game should be used to heat up the atmosphere for the subsequent games and warm up myself at the same time."
"Then let's start?" The long stick in his hand shook slightly in the air, and the cloak behind Yun Jingbu followed the constant blowing cold wind, making a hunting sound in the posture of his feet separated in front and back. : "It's embarrassing."
boom!
The crisp vibrations echoed inside and outside the valley, completely driving away all kinds of birds and beasts that were initially alarmed by the shouts of killing on the battlefield. The collision of swords and sticks caused the wind and waves to also drive away the participating players who were still entering and exiting the place. He was forced to retreat to both sides, fearing that he would have to retreat with the collapsing rocks around the canyon. Different from his playful and kind expression at the beginning, Yun Jingbu's first move after taking action contained majestic power, and he was passive. The defensive Snow Spirit Huanbing then kept flying back as the long stick thrust forward, and the white bone sword held between his hands also trembled with the excitement of the breath: "... bang."
Two deep and inconsistent marks were drawn under his feet. Xueling Huanbing stopped his body in front of the canyon cliff that he was about to hit. Yun Jingbu, who had already leaped into the air, was also wearing a black coat. The afterimage of Xue Ling Huan Bing fell from the sky, and the long stick in his hand hit the center of the big sword raised by Xue Ling Huan Bing: "Drink!"
"This feeling..."
There was no strong force coming from the surface of the heavy-lifting sword. Sensing the abnormal snow spirit and phantom ice, he stabbed the sword into his right side with his backhand. His cold and bright brows met the tip of the long stick that appeared there for a moment. , and then was forced back by the sword intent filled with cold light: "——It's really amazing to be able to distinguish reality from reality in an instant."
"Your stick skills are very good." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who did not take advantage of this opportunity to continue to attack and gradually raised his sword, replied in a low voice: "You have learned from a famous family, or have you learned it yourself?"
"How could I possibly tell you."
The long stick erected a straight slash in front of him. Yun Jingbu, who stepped back, shook his head and replied: "Telling you means telling the Sky-Breaking Blade and everyone else who is watching the battle. People...they should all be watching us in the sky now."
"That's not what I care about." Xue Ling Huan Bing shook her head and replied, "I only care about the battle between us."
"Very good, that's the mentality." So Yun Jingbu nodded with admiration: "These days, someone like you can pursue your own perfection without any distractions—"
"There really aren't many left."
Continuous heavy muffled sounds rose again inside and outside the canyon, accompanied by fierce sparks when swords and sticks collided with each other, and the agile movements of the two players exchanged back and forth among the rocks in the rugged area. Spliced into a series of phantoms, the seemingly distinct white sword and long cyan staff were now difficult to distinguish in the collision of phantoms - from the beginning, they chose the strategy of close combat and pressed on them immediately. The approaching Yun Jingbu uncharacteristically compressed the gap between himself and his opponent to the extreme. The seemingly long stick body also showed great power in this extremely close hand-to-hand combat. The huge power that Chi Chi's sword should have exerted was all suppressed. Not finding a chance to get rid of the opponent's entanglement, Xueling Huanbing, who raised his weapon and kept retreating, could only use a defensive blocking posture to temporarily resist Yun Jingbu's continuous attacks. The blows continued to come from the sword. The shock and shock also caused the female swordsman to step back to relieve the pressure on her, and her parrying movements became slower and slower due to the accumulation of stiffness. The non-stop continuous attacks finally achieved results at a certain moment. Yun Jingbu's sideways flash sent the bone sword in front of him completely flying into the air. Seeing that he was helpless, the white-haired female swordsman's eyes flashed. After a moment of determination, he let go of the long sword and then retracted his hands in advance, blocking the top of the green stick that was about to poke his chest: "Xue Ling Huan Bing was hit! She still didn't persist to the end!"
"After a series of attacks, the physical strength of the second vice-president in the world must have reached its bottom. If Xueling Huanbing could launch a counterattack at that moment... it would be a pity, a pity."
"Perhaps this is where Yun Jingbu's confidence lies. He was sure from the beginning that he could kill the enemy in this way before his physical strength reached the bottom. Although judging from the results, his tactics did not achieve all the results, but The use of this stick method really works wonders!”
"That's right, Xue Ling Huan Bing's 'Strong Man's Broken Wrist' saved her from the fate of being about to suffer the final fatal blow! But after losing her own weapon——"
"Can she still handle the fierce battle ahead?"
The bone sword was inserted upside down into the cliff in the air in the fierce rotation, and then there was the dull sound of the white-haired female swordsman's body flying up and hitting the cliff below. She was covering her abdomen with both hands. Then he let out several heavy coughs, and finally managed to pull himself out from the falling dust and gravel: "..."
"That's not right." Her opponent was still standing not far away in the standard standing stick posture, but the question he asked again was full of doubts: "You are not the kind of person who likes to let loose, but with you, Compared with your initial momentum, your current performance is extremely cautious."
"Are you afraid of something?"
He asked the last words, and his attention involuntarily shifted to the surroundings. The sound of the last few falling rocks later dotted the silence around this area, and the faint sounds of war continued to be heard from the front of the canyon. Together they passed in front of Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had empty hands: "...I see."
"I see."
Duan Qing, who was from a God's perspective, observed every change around the battlefield, and seemed to have noticed the source of the abnormality at this moment: "It seems--"
"Something is threatening her."
