#504 - Chapter 502 Qi Jing's First Battle of Pretending

"Okay, try not to get hurt."

Hearing Cai Ziqin's instructions, Fang Jun chuckled softly, then pointed at the Valor Society across the arena and said:

"Those guys? My Brother Qi could beat them with one hand tied behind his back. Don't underestimate this kid; he's arguably the strongest rookie king in recent years."

"Still, don't be careless. Wear all your equipment. It's best to go up there and use your ultimate move to instantly kill them, just in case you screw up."

Although Cai Ziqin hadn't participated in many matches, she knew the importance of not underestimating your opponent.

Fang Jun argued again:

"No need. With Xiao Qi's skills, they wouldn't even be able to touch him for a minute. No need for all that equipment, too much trouble. Screwing up is definitely out of the question."

"Indeed."

Qi Jing nodded.

"Alright, it's just the first match anyway, go wild. We'll take care of winning the remaining two."

Amidst the noise from both sides, time quickly passed.

Qi Jing, as the contestant for the singles match, was the first to step onto the arena.

Just like Fang Jun had said, he wasn't wearing any equipment, just like Liu Hao Han, the esper who had asked Song Jiang to 'give him face' at noon.

When the members of the Valor Society saw his face, their eyes widened.

Isn't this this year's rookie king?

How did he join the Welfare Society?

Wasn't he someone who hadn't joined any club?

As the rookie king, he would naturally receive many club invitations, but he had rejected them all. All the major clubs knew about this, so they didn't bother him anymore.

That's why they were so shocked when they saw Qi Jing enter the arena as a member of the Welfare Society.

Especially Liu Hao Han, who remembered seeing this rookie king once at noon.

Could it be that he was here to avenge that idiot in the expensive combat suit? That's why he joined the club that challenged them today?

No protective gear, no 'no pain' armband, just a pair of sunglasses. Even more pretentious than he was at noon.

Is this young man so hot-tempered?

"Welfare Society freshman Qi Jing is ready, Valor Society sophomore Gu Zhiyi is ready, begin the match!"

The referee quickly announced the start of the match.

Gu Zhiyi looked at the opponent in front of him, sweat seeping from the soles of his feet and the palms of his hands.

No one told him that he would be facing the rookie king! He didn't even bring a gun, just relying on the knife in his hand to chop him?

Well, he's already here, what else can he do?

Fight!

He charged forward with his knife.

So what if he's the rookie king? How strong can he be? As long as he finds the right opportunity, he can still win!

But what puzzled him was, why wasn't this rookie king moving?

Neither attacking nor dodging, not even carrying equipment, and still chewing bubble gum.

Is he looking down on me that much?

Damn it, being too confident isn't a good thing! Let this senior teach you the basic etiquette of combat!

Activate my ability, I'm already here!

"Die!"

Qi Jing watched his opponent "slowly" run towards him, chewing on the bubble gum in his mouth.

People with non-speed-type abilities are too slow. At his speed, he could kill him a hundred or eighty times.

But since he's already showing off by blowing bubble gum, he has to keep it up. There's no need to dodge unless it's an extreme situation.

With his abnormal status immunity, significant resistance to mental attacks, speed far surpassing his opponent, and the anti-glare sunglasses, he couldn't think of any reason to lose.

Blow a bubble.

Gu Zhiyi, who was staring intently at him, frowned.

So pretentious?

Since you're not dodging, then I'll chop you!

Gu Zhiyi quickly approached and swung his knife with all his might, aiming for the motionless neck.

Hahaha, my ability has been activated! Now, whether you dodge or not, you will lose to me!

His ability, "I'm Already Here," could fix an object or person in a space, not unlike a body-freezing spell, but those who couldn't be completely frozen wouldn't be completely frozen. When they moved, they might leave a part of themselves in the previous space.

For example, now, he had already applied his ability to the rookie king's neck. If he tried to move his neck to dodge, he might not be able to move it, or he might leave some organs behind while moving.

Perhaps the trachea, perhaps blood vessels.

Therefore, whether he dodges or not, this arrogant guy is doomed!

Just as Gu Zhiyi's knife was only one centimeter away from Qi Jing's neck, he suddenly hit something extremely hard, and the blade in his hand was instantly deflected.

Ding ~

What? Such a hard neck?

No, something is blocking the knife at his neck!

He saw that a palm-sized pink umbrella that could float had appeared next to Qi Jing at some point. It was probably this little toy that had blocked the attack for him.

"A natal magic treasure?"

"That's right."

In fact, Qi Jing wanted to dodge it with an extreme evasion.

However, at the moment when Gu Zhiyi confidently charged towards him, he thought of a better way to show off.

That was to use the Sword Control Technique to control the谪仙伞 (Di Xian Umbrella) to block the knife.

What could be more impressive than controlling the umbrella while standing still and chewing bubble gum?

"Continue."

Seeing the opponent utter these three words lightly, Gu Zhiyi sped up the movements in his hand.

Too pretentious, I'll chop you to death!

Overlord Sword Technique!

Chop your waist! Chop your arms! Chop your thighs! Chop your head!

Four consecutive slashes, each containing great force, but they were all blocked by the extremely fast-flying little umbrella.

Moreover, after blocking the attack, Qi Jing showed no signs of attacking, continuing to chew the bubble gum in his mouth.

Looking at the little umbrella hovering and spinning around him, Gu Zhiyi felt insulted.

Why aren't you attacking me?

I don't believe it. You're just a freshman who's been in school for half a year. Do you have that much origin power and mental power to control a magic treasure?

I'll chop again!

"The prince of love songs is so arrogant."

"Indeed, he's too pretentious, but his strength is also really strong. He can actually block that sophomore's knife with just his natal magic treasure."

"Yeah, we don't even have natal magic treasures, and he can already use his natal magic treasure like a hand."

"Why is it an umbrella?"

"Who knows? But we have to be careful when our club fights him. He has a natal magic treasure that can block knives, so we have to use other weapons to fight him."

"Look, he blew a bubble! He even has the time to blow bubbles!"

"Meow meow meow, a real man should be like this!"

Hearing the words of the people below, Gu Zhiyi, who was already worked up in the arena, suddenly calmed down and stopped the swinging motion in his hand.

He knew that continuing to chop would only highlight the opponent's strength. It was better to admit defeat.

Damn it, why is the opponent's fighting style exactly御伞 (umbrella control)!

If he had just moved his neck, he would have won!

Fate is not on my side!

"I admit defeat!"

"The match is over!"

Hearing the referee's voice, Qi Jing prepared to turn around and leave.

"Don't, I'll release..."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Gu Zhiyi remembered that his ability hadn't dissipated yet, and quickly spoke to stop him.

But he actually saw Qi Jing turn around easily, without any obstruction or injury to his neck.

Ah?

Fate is on my side, but it's still useless?

"Release what?" Qi Jing turned his head and asked.

"Re, re, take it, you won me, I'll give you this knife."

"Thanks, but it's all chipped, I don't want it."

"Uh, okay, goodbye."
