Chapter 339: You almost won! (Please vote for monthly tickets)

The intelligent voice announced loudly without any emotion, while millions of eyes stared fixedly at the ruins arena.

"Whoosh~"

The moment the battle began, Miyamoto Genichiro's figure moved suddenly.

He was lean, under 1.85 meters tall, wearing a white combat suit, and holding a silver sharp sword radiating a cold glint.

"Whoosh whoosh!!"

Only the sound of the wind could be heard by his ears, and in this instant, he had already turned into a phantom, merging into the surrounding fierce wind.

The silver sword in his hand flickered, his sword technique unfolded, and sword shadows enveloped Lin Qi like a violent storm.

Wisps of cyan force covered the blade, and each swing carried a sharp whistling sound, as if it wanted to cut the surrounding air apart.

"Gale Sword Art" — Gale Storm!

With the very first move, Miyamoto Genichiro displayed his astonishing speed.

He had completely turned into wind, forming wind blades that were released one after another.

He possessed speed not inferior to Javier's!

At the same time, Lin Qi also rushed out like a black lightning bolt, executing his movement technique, "Lei Lei Ying Shun Sha Step," shooting out in a straight line.

"Boom!"

The ground shook, the concrete road cracked, and gravel jumped.

Lin Qi gripped his spear with both hands, his whole body vibrating, moving violently. His force condensed like a spirit snake surging out, and the spear body emitted a "humming" low sound.

Facing the sword shadows surging like a tide, his whole body felt as if it had been ignited by flames.

The black great spear in his hand swept out with force, like a black dragon leaving the sea, sweeping out with the momentum of sweeping across a thousand armies.

"Whoosh whoosh!!"

As the black great spear swung out, the air seemed to be forcibly torn open, creating a huge gap.

"Bang!!"

"Clang!!"

The sword and spear collided precisely in an instant, and the air exploded.

The moment they collided, Lin Qi felt a force like a wind blade surging from the spear body.

They seemed to have no physical form, penetrating every gap, yet they could automatically sharpen their edge.

Just like a gale, it was everywhere, yet it could cause significant damage.

His Mountain-Shaking force could only block a portion, but they were as smooth as wind, stabbing out from different parts.

Not only that, it was as if he hadn't been forbidden from using special abilities; the surrounding fierce wind had turned into his weapon.

It was like wind blades scratching at his face, and his eyes were also a target of its attacks.

He even felt the pain of small knives scratching at his eyes.

He could be considered to have experienced the feeling Miyamoto Genichiro's previous opponents felt.

In the first round of the exchange, he knew that Xiang Long was definitely not Miyamoto Genichiro's match.

"So strong!"

At this moment, Miyamoto Genichiro was also shocked.

He had used his full strength from the start; this was his fastest speed.

His speed had reached 68.5 meters per second, and the sword net he swung made it difficult for anyone to judge truth from falsehood in an instant.

But Lin Qi was not only incredibly fast, he had even directly blocked his sword moves with his great spear.

Not only that, at the moment of collision, a surging force washed over him, like a super steel armored vehicle crashing into him.

The force rampaged through his arms, making him feel numb, requiring him to mobilize his own force to dissipate the impact.

"Da da!!"

His body also involuntarily retreated several steps.

Miyamoto Genichiro frowned; he also understood why other opponents had been defeated.

His brain operated at high speed, and his powerful combat talent allowed him to analyze the path to victory in an instant.

"I am not his match in a head-on collision!"

"I need to play to my strengths and avoid my weaknesses, fully utilizing my advantages!"

"Find a glimmer of opportunity to win!"

"Whoosh!"

Thinking of this, he turned and activated his movement technique, merging into the long wind, and ran toward the ruined buildings.

"Whoosh whoosh!!"

Seeing this, Lin Qi immediately swung his black great spear and chased after him against the fierce wind.

The arena they were in was situated in a ruin, surrounded by dilapidated building wreckage, vehicles, tanks, and armored cars.

In previous battles, only a few contestants chose to use the terrain advantage to fight.

Lin Qi was the same; both sides were engaged in a head-on confrontation on the open concrete road.

Or rather, most of the contestants were proud geniuses who disdained using such fighting methods.

They felt it was shameful.

But this time, the opponent Miyamoto Genichiro was different; he wanted to win.

Being able to swallow his pride and use the terrain advantage made him stronger than many other contestants.

At the high-level leadership seats.

In the Sakura Nation's spectator area, a middle-aged man wearing black and white robes nodded after watching Miyamoto Genichiro's actions:

"As a martial artist, to win, one must use every possible means."

"Everything is for the sake of victory!"

"Since there is a terrain advantage, why not use it?"

A middle-aged man with a round face and small eyes beside him also nodded and smiled:

"That's right, Genichiro-kun practices the 'Black Gold Osprey Evolution Method' and possesses unparalleled affinity with the wind."

"The awakened special ability is 【Gale】."

"The sword technique manual is the 'Gale Sword Art,' and the movement technique manual is the 'Wind Shadow Step.'"

"He is a martial artist just like the wind."

"Penetrating every gap, constantly changing like the wind, possessing incomprehensible flexibility."

"With such advantages, he might be able to defeat Xia Guo's Lin Qi and successfully advance!"

Other leaders also nodded; they in the Sakura Nation liked to take unconventional paths.

This point was reflected vividly in Miyamoto Genichiro.

On the other side, at the Xia Guo leaders' spectator area.

The crowd was calm; seeing Miyamoto Shinichiro charge into the ruins, they shook their heads one after another.

"A smart move, but it only delays the speed of his defeat!" Wu Yueze, a leader of the First Academy, shook his head and said.

In everyone's eyes, this battle had already had a result from the beginning. They only needed to enjoy the entire process of Lin Qi winning.

At the ruins arena.

"Whoosh~ whoosh~"

"Bang bang!!"

Lin Qi was like a lightning bolt, waving his great spear and rushing into the buildings, chasing Miyamoto Genichiro.

The opponent constantly used the buildings to change direction, accelerate, and change direction again, without slowing down in the slightest.

Everyone's speed was divided into straight-line burst speed and turning speed.

Only a few people could remain fast while changing direction; this required astonishing speed and flexibility.

And Miyamoto Genichiro could do it; he was like a gust of wind, able to blow quickly in any direction.

He used the dilapidated buildings to dodge and then launched sudden attacks.

"Bang~ bang!!"

!

Vehicles and tanks were constantly being smashed by Lin Qi's great spear.

He charged through, smashing many vehicles.

At this moment, Miyamoto Genichiro in front of him jumped over a dilapidated sedan.

Lin Qi also jumped up.

"Bang!"

But Miyamoto Genichiro turned his sword, kicked the sedan away, and crouched slightly to begin accumulating power.

Lin Qi, in mid-air, held his black great spear high. He exerted force from his whole body and slashed down fiercely.

"Bang!!"

The sharp spear tip grazed the car body, actually splitting the dilapidated sedan in two out of thin air.

Just as he landed, cold light flickered nearby, and the surroundings seemed to be enveloped in a domain of wind blades.

Miyamoto Genichiro suddenly launched an attack, seizing the timing perfectly.

His whole body's force vibrated, like gusts of tornadoes, and gale force gathered around his body, covering the blade.

He even merged his body with the surrounding wind, turning himself into a gale, and stabbed out his strongest sword move with the surrounding storm.

"Gale Sword Art" killing move — Long Juanfeng Storm!

In this instant, the moment his body and mind were strongly shaken, Miyamoto Genichiro only felt his whole body relax.

"Almost there!"

The speed of the long sword he stabbed out became even faster, force wrapped around him, and he stabbed out a faster sword move than usual.

In an instant, his sword technique and movement technique had both achieved a breakthrough in the battle.

This increased his speed by a notch!

This was the speed!

A strong sense of confidence surged in Miyamoto Genichiro's heart; he could win this match.

He could defeat Lin Qi and successfully advance to the semi-finals!

"Whoosh whoosh~"

The intense whistling sound of breaking wind accompanied the air being cut open, dust spread, and gravel splashed.

Lin Qi also felt a deadly danger in an instant, which made his heart tremble and his body tense up.

He caught a glimpse of cold light flickering; the speed of this sword stab was too fast.

His body also ignited in an instant, and his movement technique, "Lei Lei Ying Shun Sha Step," erupted.

"Whoosh!"

His body also displayed astonishing flexibility; his consciousness precisely controlled his body muscles, and in an instant, his feet tapped the ground, his hands gripped the spear, and his body tilted backward.

"Shoo~"

The intense tornado storm raged on his face, and every wisp of wind was like a blade cutting on his skin.

"Puff~"

Lin Qi's entire face was less than five centimeters away from the sharp sword wrapped in force.

The wind of force turned into blades, cutting the skin on his face and splashing out several drops of blood.

"How is it possible...?"

Miyamoto Genichiro's expression changed drastically; his sure-kill sword move had been dodged?

But he couldn't stop his momentum, so he could only desperately control his body muscles and swing the sharp sword down to slash!

Just at this instant, Lin Qi's consciousness connected to every muscle, every fine muscle group.

The muscles in his arms exerted force, blue veins bulged like steel bars wrapped around, and the long spear held in his hands was pushed upward with force, like weightlifting.

At the same time, the surging force in his body also gathered in an instant, and his Mountain-Shaking force erupted.

Strength and force merged, venting out through the spear body.

"Bang!"

"Crack!"

The terrifying strength slammed into Miyamoto Genichiro's body, and the force twisted and killed everything.

In an instant, Miyamoto lost all sensation in his body and could only hear his body vibrating, bones shattering, and muscles tearing.

Although he possessed unparalleled speed, he was exceptionally weak in strength and defense.

Lin Qi's violent collision caused him to be severely injured instantly, and his entire body was sent flying.

At the same time, Lin Qi rotated the spear body and stabbed out!

"Puff~"

The spear tip radiating cold light instantly pierced through his chest, and hot blood splashed out.

"I..."

Miyamoto Shinichiro's chest was pierced through by the long spear like a candied hawthorn; he looked down at Lin Qi, fresh blood dripping from his mouth, his eyes revealing endless confusion.

Everything happened too fast; in less than a second, the battle was already over.

"Your speed... is fast!"

"You almost won!"

Lin Qi looked up and gave his evaluation earnestly.

"Sigh~"

With a sigh, his body turned into nothingness and dissipated into the air.

【Match 2: Lin Qi (Xia Guo) wins!】
