Chapter 202: I Can Last 10 Moves! (Seeking monthly votes)

Lin Qi looked at the virtual little people in Xu Xu Wenji's palm.

【Bye contestant: Ao Feng (Ninth Academy)】

This time it was Ao Feng from the Profound Heaven Ninth Academy who got a bye, and the remaining 12 people each matched with an opponent.

【Match 2: Lin Qi (Sixth Academy) vs Ruan Gu Qian (Third Academy)】

Lin Qi looked at the position of the Profound Heaven Third Academy; this time his opponent was Ruan Gu Qian, the younger of the twin sisters.

At the same time, Ruan Gu Qian clenched her fists, her expression excited:

"Actually matched with Lin Qi!"

The older sister next to her, Ruan Yu, shook her head with a serious expression: "It seems this round is your limit."

"Lin Qi is too strong; there are also gaps among S-level geniuses. He is a super expert who is going to enter the semi-finals."

Ruan Gu Qian smiled confidently: "How can I say I am also an S-level genius; since I was a child, besides my sister, I have always been the second place in Jiangnan City."

"I have defeated countless opponents, and I have encountered all kinds of opponents; I am also a genius who practices mental power and can better perceive opponents."

"Lin Qi, that's all; if he wants to defeat me, he will at least have to... take 10 moves!"

Ruan Yu:...

"Bang!!"

In the arena, Li Lei brandished his battle axe; he had a huge physique, over 2.2 meters, his upper body muscles were exceptionally developed, and his arm muscles were almost the size of an adult's head.

He was broad-shouldered and thick-waisted, his whole person was like a savage bear, and his fighting style was endless violence.

His strength was powerful, and almost no one could block his attack.

His opponent was Guanshan; at this time, he was brandishing his battle saber, struggling to block the attack.

He wasn't tall enough, his style was speed-based, and strength was his weakness.

Originally he could rely on speed, but Li Lei's offensive was too fierce, brandishing the battle axe and actually blocking his Cold Wind Blade Technique.

By the time he started to counterattack, he couldn't block it anymore and was blasted back step by step.

"Puff~"

One minute later, he was torn apart by the battle axe and turned into nothingness, dissipating into the air.

In the spectator stands of the Profound Heaven Sixth Academy, Guanshan returned and smiled bitterly: "I tried my best; Li Lei is worthy of being the head of the Fourth Academy; I am completely not his opponent."

Lin Qi shook his head and said: "You already did very well!"

"The Freshman Competition has no restrictions; the gap in Qi-blood value and martial arts superimposed, the impact on combat power is too great."

"Facing Li Lei, very few people can win."

There was one more point Lin Qi didn't say, unless one possessed top-tier combat talent, it was possible to win.

For example, himself, top-tier combat talent, plus the Mind Eye talent.

Able to quickly perceive the opponent's flaws and find a line of opportunity to turn defeat into victory.

If he were Guanshan, he might have won.

Others nodded after hearing this; without restrictions, the gap was clearly widened, and for them, the academy heads were completely existences of another level.

【Please have the two contestants for the second match enter the arena!】

The intelligent voice in the arena sounded, and Lin Qi also slowly stood up and turned into a crimson light, dissipating from where he stood.

In the arena, two crimson beams of light descended.

Lin Qi, wearing a black combat suit, lifted his pitch-black great spear and walked out slowly.

Opposite him, Ruan Gu Qian, wearing a pink combat suit, held a silver sharp sword in her hand, twirling the sword.

She looked at Lin Qi, her expression gradually becoming serious, and an invisible pressure was released from the other party.

As if a golden giant tiger was staring at her.

"Crouching Tiger!"

She remembered Lin Qi's nickname, Crouching Tiger, meaning a person who hides their true self.

Now she had an even more real feeling.

The other party was even more powerful than she had imagined, and her breathing couldn't help but become heavier.

"Let me see just how strong you, the head of the Profound Heaven Sixth Academy, are."

Lin Qi said calmly: "You will know!"

【Competition preparation begins!】

【Countdown: 3, 2, 1...】

【Competition officially begins!】 The intelligent voice announced the start high in the sky!

In the spectator stands, countless spectators were also curiously watching the competition.

This was the first time they had seen a competition between academy heads; it was destined to be a battle of Mars hitting the Earth.

And the people of the Profound Heaven Third Academy were still expectant.

Ruan Gu Qian was also an S-level genius, the gap wasn't very big; maybe she could win?

In the leadership seats, a middle-aged beauty wearing black martial arts attire spoke slowly:

"Ruan Gu Qian's strength might not be as good as Lin Qi's, but it is possible to persist for a while."

"It is still possible to let her gain some experience."

She was the Vice Principal of the Profound Heaven Third Academy; last year they were first place, but this year it was different, and they could only choose S-level geniuses ranked lower.

"That is natural!" Principal Liu also said with a smile.

In the spacious arena

"Whoosh~"

!

Ruan Gu Qian pounced out like a flexible civet cat, her figure flexible, her sword technique cold and gorgeous.

Before the person arrived, a fierce wind had already rushed toward her face, and the next instant, sword light and cold light shrouded from all directions, as if they could be thrust out at any time.

Lin Qi, seeing this, also stepped out, brandishing the great spear in his hand, and his muscles exerted force at the same time.

He didn't launch a fierce attack for the first time, but instead defended.

In the Genius Competition, the opponent he faced in the last round was only Li Li Zehao; he hadn't fought against a real S-level genius, which made him quite regretful.

Now it could be considered a direct battle.

"Clang, clang!!"

The distance between the two sides was no more than 20 meters; for both of them, in less than a second, the attacks of both sides were launched and collided together.

In an instant, Ruan Gu Qian released the invisible power of the long sword through the long sword.

Her arm exerted force, launching attacks on Lin Qi from different directions, all of which were vital points.

Lin Qi was very familiar with this sword technique; it was the "Shadowless Sword Technique."

Feng Feng Qingyue, whom he had fought before, had also used this sword technique, but it was completely incomparable to Ruan Gu Qian in front of him.

When she made a move, it was like a gale and rain under the night sky; the sound of the sword blade breaking through the air lingered in his ears, fast as lightning.

At the same time, during the weapon collision, bursts of power like needle pricks shrouded his arms, making his Qi-blood stagnant and paralyzed, even destroying muscle blood vessels.

"Clang, clang~~"

Lin Qi brandished the spear shaft like a shield to block the attack.

And at this time, Ruan Gu Qian's expression was excited; the opponent's strength wasn't too strong, and she even had the illusion that she could win.

The sword technique in her hand was swung out faster and more fiercely.

And Lin Qi's body kept retreating; in the blink of an eye, he had an understanding of Ruan Gu Qian's strength.

Her strength was indeed good, and her sword technique also had a level close to 80% of the second stage.

With this level, she could win against other opponents, but facing himself, it wouldn't work.

The other party's sword technique trajectory fell completely into his eyes; he instantly predicted Ruan Gu Qian's next move.

At the same time, he also exerted force instantly, his toes kicked the ground, using the earth's reaction force, and brandished the long spear.

Terrifying power burst out instantly, and the power in his flesh, blood, tendons, and bones surged.

"Bang!!"

The moment the long spear and the long sword collided, Ruan Gu Qian's expression changed drastically.

She felt a terrifying power instantly wash away her invisible power, and at the same time, it was transmitted to her arms and body.

"Boom!"

Her body couldn't help but retreat backward,

The next instant, cold light flickered in front of her, the spear thrust out like a dragon, and three moves were launched in succession.

Big slash, big collapse, big thrust

"Clang, clang!!"

She simply blocked two moves, her arms almost lost sensation, and her reaction was a big step slower.

The next instant, the spear tip cold light thrust out and instantly pierced through her neck and throat, and fresh blood splashed out.

Ruan Gu Qian fell to the ground and turned into nothingness, dissipating into the air.

The battle ended!
