#143 - Chapter 143 Finalists
In the afternoon, Qi Jing finished his last match of the day.
This time, he severed his opponent's throat as soon as he entered the arena, giving her no chance to attack.
It could be described as decisive and resolute, sharp and ruthless, merciless in destroying beauty, and swift and efficient!
After singing a song, he walked out of the arena with a flourish, leaving no lingering fragrance behind.
He felt incredibly handsome.
"Today's semi-finals have finally come to an end, and we have selected the top eight to advance to the finals."
Qi Jing and Tan Zuoyin listened to the host's speech from the audience seats.
The big screen displayed the figures of eight people, each striking a different pose.
"Look, your close-up is in the third position," Tan Zuoyin said, pointing to the screen in the sky.
In the picture, Qi Jing held a sword in his right hand, slightly lowered his head, and stared ahead, just as he was splitting an incoming bullet, the exploding sparks highlighting his sharp gaze.
Qi Jing glanced at it: "It's good that it's a screenshot of me cutting a bullet, not that disheveled one."
Tan Zuoyin took a picture of the big screen: "The academy knows how to choose, this one does make you look a bit more handsome."
"What do you mean 'make me look handsome'? I'm obviously handsome no matter how you look at it."
"Yes, yes, yes, you're handsome no matter what, Master Green-Faced Ghost."
Speaking of this, Qi Jing felt endless shame:
"Damn it, thinking about it now is still very embarrassing. What's the difference between this and publicly defecating at the opening ceremony!"
"Alright, alright, everyone has embarrassing moments, don't think about it, let's listen to the host's introduction."
The host had finished his lengthy speech, encouraging and praising those who didn't make it to the finals.
Next, he would introduce the highly anticipated top eight finalists.
"Next, I'm going to talk about Wu Xia from the Strengthening Branch of School A. I believe everyone knows that his superpower is the same as his name, Wu Xia (Martial Hero).
Speaking of the concept of Wu Xia, I believe everyone is familiar with it. Every boy imagines himself being able to fly over walls and sweep in all directions with a staff when they are young.
To be honest, I am also such a person who wants to be a hero. If I had a staff in my hand, I would dare to make Akita bow his head!
Wu Xia has brought the martial arts from novels into reality, allowing us to see what a true martial hero should be like.
To be honest, I am very envious.
Unfortunately, my superpower 'Not-So-Unforgettable Memory' can only allow me to be a small host."
Why does it feel like he's showing off?
"Come, let's admire Wu Xia's demeanor!"
The big screen began to play a montage of Wu Xia's battle videos.
The first clip was a scene of Wu Xia dodging an enemy's attack, where he lightly tapped his toes, and his whole body floated backward like paper.
The second clip was also a scene of him dodging, but this time he moved quickly to the left, and the most outrageous thing was that several afterimages appeared behind him.
"Although not as fast as me, the special effects are really cool." Qi Jing also wanted his special effects.
The third scene was him using a staff to beat the tiger-man from the transformation system on the opposite side to the point where he was crawling all over the ground.
"Dog-Beating Staff Technique?"
"Possibly."
The next video showed his defensive skill, Golden Bell Shield.
The last one was even cooler, he slapped out a golden dragon with one palm, sending his opponent flying.
"Cool! Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms! I also want such a skill, how cool is that."
Qi Jing had already made up his mind that after drawing the [Handsome Man] lottery at the end of the month, he would find these handsome superpower users one by one to draw lottery from.
"Next, I want to introduce Fan Tang from School C. Before the competition, she was hailed as the most likely person to win the championship. At that time, I was very curious, what kind of superpower could receive such high praise.
After watching her match, I understood why her popularity was so high. Her superpower 'Reflection' can reflect any attack against her, whether it's melee or ranged, whether it's physical or elemental, all can be reflected!
It's impossible to hurt her, how can you fight this?
Next, let us admire her wonderful battle."
This time, the video editing technique was completely different from the previous Wu Xia's.
The first half was a palm, a punch, a fireball, a lightning bolt, a sonic wave, and a knife attacking her, and the second half was her reflecting all these attacks back to the opponents who attacked her.
Although it was very short, it perfectly demonstrated her outrageous superpower.
Among them, that "palm" and "lightning" both came from Xiong Er.
That's right, Xiong Er was defeated by her.
"Do you have a way to beat her?" Tan Zuoyin asked.
Qi Jing said: "Not sure, at least I have a way to draw.
As long as I don't hit her and drag the time to fifteen minutes, it can be a draw."
She can't fly, and she's not as fast as him. As long as Qi Jing doesn't want to be touched by her, it's impossible for her to hit him.
"Whether I can win her depends on whether I can exhaust her source power. In theory, the stronger the attack she reflects, the more source power it should consume.
I will keep attacking her for fifteen minutes. If I can exhaust her source power, I can win."
From the video just now, it can be seen that her way of reflecting melee attacks is to directly nullify the damage and reflect it back to the opponent.
The way she reflects ranged attacks is to bounce back the fireball or lightning, not directly affect the person.
So, Qi Jing can smash her with a frying pan and dodge the frying pan that bounces back, which should be a harmless victory.
"Let us introduce the third finalist, Li Luoluo from the Combat Branch of School C.
Since her arena was A, I didn't see her battle with my own eyes, but when I saw the replay of her battle, I was shocked.
So far, she has directly killed her opponents in six out of seven matches!
Let's take a look at the recording of the remaining match!"
This time, the screen only showed Li Luoluo and Shan Tao's match, showing her "red", "orange", "yellow", "green", and "purple" all over again.
Qi Jing saw her match again, and remembered when he and Yan Cheng were discussing it.
Song Jiang even said that she would definitely make it to the finals, but he didn't expect him to be right.
"So it's her, it seems that she didn't encounter any strong opponents in the semi-finals, she actually killed her opponents three times."
Tan Zuoyin stared at Qi Jing and asked: "You know her? How do you know her? How come I don't know? Tell me quickly."
"At that time, I had just finished my last preliminary round, weren't you guys surrounding Xiao Pi?"
"And then you ran into her?"
"No, no, no, Song Jiang went to watch her match and came back and shared her battle video with us."
"That's it?"
"That's it, what else do you want?"
"Oh."
Qi Jing said: "Actually, you've seen her too, it was when I was in my first match, she was next after I finished."
Tan Zuoyin tapped her chin with her finger and thought for a while:
"Oh! Then can you beat her?"
Looks like you don't remember.
Qi Jing said:
"Probably can, her moves have a bit of a pre-motion, I can predict it and dodge it, or I can kill her as soon as I enter the arena."
Unless, she has a skill that can be cast instantly and can block his Golden Skyline, otherwise, victory is assured.
