Looks like she’s from the Divine Protection Federation—her skin’s so pale and smooth, you could squeeze water out of it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luo Quan—she’s a native from the frontier wastelands of the Universe Civilization.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Native? Your natives grow this beautiful?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The universe is vast—anything’s possible.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…………”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The audience’s tone grew relaxed, as most believed this strike would end Luo Quan’s defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But many still watched the arena with intense focus—something in their gut told them this wasn’t simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, it wasn’t. Luo Quan leapt upward solely to buy time to charge her power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the arena’s height far exceeded its radius—jumping higher delayed the giant blade’s arrival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the technique she was charging? Only used once before: “Oath of Victory’s Sword.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After lying in bed at school for so many days, the Gate of Anywhere’s battery was fully charged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan opened the Gate of Anywhere in her storage space, summoning Dahei across dimensions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she leapt into the air, she raised both hands—and a silver-white longsword materialized in her grip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ex…calibur!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Luo Quan’s roar, the sword blazed with blinding golden light, and her golden hair erupted into radiant brilliance too intense to behold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, a swordlight of monumental grandeur shot skyward—its blade forged from surging golden sword qi, carrying the terrifying might of Mount Everest crashing from heaven, unleashing all its awe-inspiring force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two hundred-meter giant swords collided midair, producing a shockwave and an overwhelmingly brilliant flash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that brilliance was mostly Luo Quan’s doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After holding for a moment, both blades shattered simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since most energy had been spent in the stalemate, the blade fractures caused no explosion—only both sword-wielders staggered forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan internally sighed in relief—Oath of Victory’s Sword had nearly dissolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This technique was always a one-shot deal: strike and obliterate the enemy, or else the blade vanished once energy ran out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding out this long against Bai Xingwei was only possible because she’d desperately poured in spiritual energy—otherwise, it would’ve vanished long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she hadn’t expected this strike to shatter Bai Xingwei’s sword—seeing the scattered blade fragments, Luo Quan awkwardly asked: “Is this sword a limited edition? Can you buy another?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it was a one-of-a-kind by a deceased master, compensation would be nearly impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need. This blade was formed from my sword qi—shattered is shattered. I’ll just condense another identical one later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xingwei looked up, smiling at Luo Quan: “But you’re one of only two people to break my sword. Ordinary techniques won’t work on you anymore—let me show you my second divine art.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, the fourth sword flew from her sword case.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This blade was thinner than the other eight, and Bai Xingwei didn’t grip it—instead, it circled her like a guardian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Though the arena’s barrier will heal all wounds after the fight, I’ll still avoid your face—for caution.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Bai Xingwei spoke, the slender sword trembled—then split into two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then two into four, four into eight, eight into sixteen—until finally, it multiplied into one hundred and twenty-eight!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Bai Xingwei’s control, these flying swords zipped toward Luo Quan like missiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their blades glowed fiercely—clearly coated in Bai Xingwei’s sword qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan’s expression turned grim—just one blade’s qi had nearly broken her defenses; one hundred and twenty-eight would tear her apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing Dahei could act independently, she hurled it into the air and pulled her Ruyi Jingu Bang from her storage space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t trained much in sword techniques—under this pressure, swordplay would barely hold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A staff, by contrast, gave her far greater confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying goes: “A month for staff, a year for saber, a lifetime for spear”—staffs are easy to learn, spears take decades to master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as long weapons, staff and spear techniques share underlying principles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her true specialty wasn’t even staff—it was spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This “spear” wasn’t the American-style firearm, but the traditional Chinese long spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She learned it because she’d exchanged every martial art in the system’s shop related to Baji Quan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In traditional Chinese martial arts, all fist styles are merely entry-level—true power lies in weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baji Quan’s most famed technique is the Baji Six Harmonies Great Spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every grandmaster of Baji Quan throughout history mastered spear techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most recent grandmaster was Li Shuwen, a martial arts master of the Republic era and legendary Baji Quan patriarch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many Chinese might not recognize his name, but FGO players would.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s the only modern Chinese spirit in the game—known as “Steel Fist, No Equal, Divine Spear Li Shuwen!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Legends abound: he always fought with one move—“Tiger Climbs the Mountain”—slamming the crown of his opponent’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just that one strike was enough—opponents either died or were crippled, never surviving a second round—hence “Steel Fist, No Equal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Shuwen truly gained fame by defeating and injuring countless Japanese karate masters and military instructors as a Chinese martial artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His power was so overwhelming that even today, the Japanese still remember him—and even included him in games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Shuwen’s fists were fearsome, but his spear technique was even more extraordinary—so refined it earned him the title “Divine Spear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Baji Six Harmonies Spear technique Luo Quan exchanged was partly derived from Li Shuwen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other part came from Yang Family Six Harmonies Spear—the orthodox lineage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Combined, Luo Quan dared claim her spear skill could rival Li Shuwen himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Ruyi Jingu Bang in hand, Luo Quan’s confidence surged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did she now have a weapon suited to her spear techniques,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she no longer had to barehandedly intercept sword strikes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though her body was incredibly tough—she could endure Bai Xingwei’s sword qi cuts without a scratch,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pain was still real, constantly reminding her that the next strike might break her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This psychological pressure had always restrained her, making her fight stiffly, unable to fully unleash herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Ruyi Jingu Bang, she could now fight more freely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the premise is that the Ruyi Jingu Bang could withstand Bai Xingwei's sword qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing how excited it seemed—unfazed by the sharp blades and qi—Luo Quan spun a staff flourish before her chest, testing its resilience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ding ding dang dang”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A crisp, clanging sound like blacksmithing rang out, and every sword that struck the Ruyi Jingu Bang was shattered and flung away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining flying swords tried to circle around the Jingu Bang to attack Luo Quan’s back, but were promptly blocked by the floating Dahei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can you hold up?” Luo Quan asked the two weapons cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xingwei’s swords were all formed from sword qi—they could be shattered and remade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But these were irreplaceable treasures; even a single chip would break her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So if they couldn’t hold, there was no point continuing this match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem at all!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though unable to speak, both treasures simultaneously conveyed their readiness to continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this reply, Luo Quan no longer hesitated and finally unleashed her full strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With immense power and skill, she wielded the Jingu Bang so swiftly that not a single gap remained; Bai Xingwei’s flying swords were instantly shattered the moment they neared her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Luo Quan parried while advancing toward Bai Xingwei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defense alone cannot defeat an enemy—offense is the best defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet their distance remained considerable, and Luo Quan’s forward speed was not fast, so Bai Xingwei did not move at first, instead focusing entirely on controlling her flying swords, refusing to miss any chance to wound Luo Quan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this small oversight nearly cost her the match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After charging forward a distance, Luo Quan suddenly stopped and thrust the Jingu Bang straight ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve played the pig long enough—it’s time to eat some tigers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Luo Quan grinned wickedly, the Jingu Bang instantly extended over a hundred meters, nearly piercing Bai Xingwei clean through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp pain beneath her armpit made Bai Xingwei feel as if her body had been pierced; looking down, she saw the rod had passed cleanly through her armpit, tearing through her clothing and skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the blood flow was slight, it still trickled out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last time she had bled was during a fight with a senior fourth-year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Guess I was too relaxed,” Bai Xingwei sighed, drawing her fifth and sixth swords.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both swords shattered instantly without any display, then dissolved into white light and surged into her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two swords were formed from purest spiritual energy; upon returning to her body, they healed nearly all injuries and replenished all spiritual energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Equivalent to full health and full mana, instant resurrection—giving her an extra life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because her cultivation had been suppressed to the Blood Tempering stage, her spiritual energy reserves were far less than at full strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By this point, her spiritual energy was nearly depleted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After recovery, Bai Xingwei drew her seventh sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As this sword emerged, heaven and earth went dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan had just retracted the Jingu Bang when she realized her surroundings had plunged into total darkness—as if that single sword had devoured all light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Losing sight on the arena was terrifying; without hesitation, Luo Quan unleashed her best technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Infinite Sword Formation!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1992,"2026-06-20T22:54:06.151Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","91db7f823daef7096e3f44ba00a144776be789cb27bc62e11b242f6db87e31cf","becoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-chapter-955","becoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-chapter-953",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbecoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-cover.jpg"]
