Chapter 27

As soon as the competition started, the curly-haired man exerted force instantly, rushing out like a sharp arrow with lightning speed.

He was excited inside: "My luck is really good today, haha, I actually ran into a novice, I can happily bully a noob again."

So fast!

Lin Qi was secretly shocked. As expected of a real person, the movements were agile and swift, without any hesitation; they could not be compared to the stiff movements of an AI.

"Whoosh~"

Lin Qi exerted force under his feet, his thigh muscles gathered and his Qi and blood erupted simultaneously. He rushed out wielding the black great spear, the spear shaft shook, and the spear tip drew circles in the air, dancing out brilliant spear flowers.

"Swish swish~"

The curly-haired man brandished his great sword, cold light shrouded the area, and sword shadows rushed out. He launched the attack first, swift as the wind.

"Clang, clang, clang~"

In the center of the arena, the great sword and the great spear collided instantly. The metal weapons clashed, and the crisp sound of the collision echoed all around.

Cold light and sword shadows, murderous intent shrouded the area.

In the curly-haired man's hands, sword shadows were unleashed, attacking from all directions.

Shadow Rising Style!

So fast!

Lin Qi was secretly shocked. The curly-haired man's strikes were as fast as lightning, leaving no time to react before the sword moves were already attacking before his eyes.

The sword technique used had already shown its characteristic: speed!

"Too slow, too slow!"

"Brother, your speed is so slow, how are you going to make a living in the arena in the future?"

The curly-haired man suddenly spoke mockingly at this moment.

Lin Qi was slightly stunned; an AI wouldn't be able to speak.

"Swish!"

A sword thrust out fiercely, a flash of cold light, and in an instant, it had broken through the long spear and appeared before Lin Qi. The next moment, it was about to kill Lin Qi.

"Newbie, welcome to the Red Realm!"

The curly-haired man laughed loudly, and the movements in his hands seemed to become even faster!

Retreat!

Lin Qi was jolted, his body suddenly waking up. He exerted force instantly, his arms swung with a boom, and the spear shaft moved instantly.

"Clang~"

After the long spear and the great sword collided, the direction of the great sword tilted.

"Pfft!"

The sharp sword light cut a bloody mark on Lin Qi's face. The pain stimulated his nerves, subconsciously making his body unable to stop retreating backward.

Lin Qi frowned. That was too dangerous just now; the opponent's great sword almost pierced into his eyes. He almost died.

A very strong opponent!

The curly-haired man was quite surprised: "Actually dodged it."

"Kid, you won't have such good luck next time."

After speaking, his figure flashed, shooting out like an arrow from a bowstring. The great sword danced out sword flowers, cold light arrayed, and he attacked again.

"Whoosh~"

The battle didn't give anyone a moment to breathe, and the terrifying murderous intent swept over again.

Lin Qi exhaled, his heart beating violently, the blood in his body flowing rapidly, and his eyes becoming brighter and brighter.

He recognized the opponent's sword technique; it was the "Swift Shadow Sword Technique," a Black Iron-level sword technique manual.

Swift as the wind, coming and going without a shadow.

The sword strikes were as fast as lightning, the sword technique was proficient, and the level of mastery was even above his own.

"Really strong!"

His eyes became brighter and brighter, the large muscle groups all over his body exerted force simultaneously, Qi and blood surged in his body, his body erupted suddenly, and the veins on his arms bulged.

His speed increased by a large margin suddenly, the long spear was brandished, the momentum was magnificent, and the aura was released.

In his eyes, the curly-haired man's sharp sword thrust out, his body moved rapidly, turning, and the sword strikes were tightly combined with the sword moves, as fast as lightning.

Shadow Piercing Style!

But Lin Qi saw it clearly at this moment.

Countermeasures emerged in his mind.

Left side!

His head tilted, his body moved, brushing past the sharp sword, lowering his head, and dodging again.

Successfully dodged two swords in a row in a perilous second!

The curly-haired man was stunned instantly after seeing it.

"It's now!"

At the critical moment, Lin Qi seized the curly-haired man's momentary distraction. His hands and waist coordinated, exerting force instantly, and the black great spear in his hand thrust out fiercely.

Point Break!

With a precise point thrust, he broke the opponent's Swift Shadow Sword Technique.

In the curly-haired man's eyes, he suddenly saw the cold light of the spear tip flash, full of murderous intent.

"Pfft~"

The sharp spear tip pierced through the heart, and blood sprayed wildly!

【Battle ended, "My Great Sword" has died!】

"How could this be?"

"Boom!"

The curly-haired man fell to the ground, only to see a person wearing a black mask appearing in his line of sight from a high position, and beneath the pitch-black mask was a pair of indifferent eyes.

"Thank you for the lesson you taught me!"

"I..."

The curly-haired man wanted to say something, but he had already turned into nothingness and dissipated in the arena....

When the curly-haired man opened his eyes again, he had already returned to his personal space.

"Damn, I actually died."

He looked frantic, his face full of unwillingness.

"I actually lost to a novice?"

"Right, it must be that I was careless, that's why I let him win."

The curly-haired man found a reason to comfort himself, wanting to match another round to regain his face.

He immediately opened the matching, burning with impatience, eager to defeat that "Yang Jian" and regain his face.

At this time, on the other side.

【Battle ended! Congratulations to you "Yang Jian" for winning, points +3】

【Record: 1/10】

!

【Win rate: 100%】

【Points: 3】

Lin Qi also retreated to his personal space at this time, but his gaze was locked on his panel.

【You engaged in a fierce battle with a strong enemy, "Mountain Crushing Spear Technique" proficiency greatly improved, spear technique +2%】

【You engaged in a fierce battle with a strong enemy, body technique proficiency greatly improved, body technique +3%】

【Spear technique: Stage One 80% -> 82%】

【Body technique: Stage One 70% -> 73%】

"Whoosh~"

Lin Qi looked at the data improvement on the panel and revealed a smile, but it was blocked by the mask, so his expression couldn't be seen.

"That curly-haired man's strength is indeed very strong, his spear technique realm is a large margin stronger than mine, and his sword technique is swift, as fast as lightning. I almost lost."

Lin Qi recalled the battle just now, still having lingering fears. That kind of nervous and exciting feeling was something he couldn't experience before.

His spirit was highly concentrated, and the outcome was on the line. If the spear was 0.1 seconds slower, he would have lost.

"But after one battle, the improvement is still huge, and I also have a new understanding of the 'Mountain Crushing Spear Technique'."

"Spear technique and body technique, the improvement is too fast, every battle can improve."

"Come again!"

Lin Qi chose to match again.

Three minutes later, two figures appeared in the arena. Lin Qi's opponent this time was a beautiful woman wearing a green combat suit and holding a long sword.

"Newbie, let me teach you a lesson!"

The woman looked at Lin Qi and revealed an unkind smile, like a hunter looking at prey.

But what greeted her was a black great spear.

Soon an hour passed.

【Battle ended, unfortunately, "Yang Jian" you have died!】

【Record: 5/10】

【Win rate: 80%】

【Ranking function unlocked, Yes/No to view?】

"Whoosh~"

In the personal space, Lin Qi's face was a bit pale.

"The feeling of death is really not pleasant!"

"Although the pain of death was lowered to 20%, it is still uncomfortable."

"The opponent just now was too strong, there was a huge gap in realm between me and him. He likely has already reached over Stage One 90%."

Lin Qi recalled the battle just now. After the first round started, he matched four more rounds. The opponents' strength was similar, and he became more and more handy, winning three rounds.

Until the last round, the opponent's strength was too powerful. Even if his intuition was sensitive, he was still not an opponent and was beheaded by a sword.

"Ranking function?"

"Yes!"

Lin Qi clicked "Yes," and the panel began to change.

【Red Realm Arena Ranking (Tianhai Branch)】

【Nickname: Yang Jian】

【Points: 12】

【Ranking: 328】

Lin Qi was puzzled, 328th place? Does it mean there are 328 people in the Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion stronger than him?

Then he shook his head, it might be related to points or win rate. Because his points were too low, it led to a lower ranking.

【Warm reminder, your experience time is almost up!】

Just when Lin Qi intended to continue exploring, the screen popped up a reminder, showing that the experience time would end in three minutes.

"An hour passed so quickly?"

Lin Qi shook his head, sighing that time passed too quickly, and he also felt mentally exhausted.

It was time to go offline. Today's harvest was already big enough, and he felt grateful in his heart that Guo Heng brought him to experience the "Red Realm."
