Chapter 460: Senior Shen Heng Eliminated (Seeking Monthly Votes)
While watching the battle, his brain was also operating rapidly.
Analyzing who would be the final winner on the arena.
Because both had broken through to the Seventh Realm, their physical fitness had been greatly improved.
One person's breakthrough was a breakthrough, but two people's breakthrough was equivalent to no breakthrough; the gap was not large.
However, Senior Shen Heng had awakened the special ability 【Lightning】, which could control lightning to amplify his combat power.
His Lightning Fist was also very close to Great Completion, but after all, it was not complete, with only a 1.8x amplification.
Even so, the improvement it brought was huge.
As for Ivan, he had awakened as a 【Mentalist】.
Without combat power amplification, he would be at a great disadvantage in close-quarters combat against Senior Shen Heng.
But his advantage was that he could control flying knives; after awakening, a Mentalist needed to learn mental secret techniques.
Learning how to control flying knives, multitasking, and using consciousness to manipulate mental power to command the flying knives while attacking himself.
Because the higher the material of the flying knives, the stronger the power; once besieged, it was difficult to take care of three flying knives in the ever-changing battle.
Once a flaw was caught, there might be a danger of death.
Therefore, this battle was also exceptionally exciting.
Even though Senior Shen Heng was very careful, his combat suit was still slashed by the flying knives, and wounds appeared on his body.
And Ivan was not having an easy time either; close-quarters combat was not his forte, and every collision was a huge impact on his body.
His body might not be able to hold on.
This battle lasted for a full five minutes.
It was at a certain moment that the Shanhe King suddenly spoke in the high-level spectator area:
"The winner is about to be decided!"
Li Qifeng and the North River Sword King nodded; five minutes of high-intensity combat with almost no buffer.
This was not fighting against Disaster Beasts.
In a battle between martial artists, the winner was decided in a single moment.
"Block!!"
"Zzzzt!!"
On the arena, Senior Shen Heng seized a momentary gap, the silver snake dancing wildly, dodging the attacks of the three flying knives.
He swung his battle sword and thrust it toward Ivan.
The timing he seized was very clever.
"Die!"
Seeing this, Ivan's mouth curled up slightly; he swung his battle saber, and a powerful artistic conception ability was released from his body.
"Hum hum!!"
Centered on his body, it spread outward.
The lightning sword light thrust out first, but it deviated; in an instant, Senior Shen Heng felt the power of the artistic conception.
It made his sword tip deviate, just like a slippery loach, sliding past from the side.
Not good!
Senior Shen Heng was shocked, but it was too late; he and Ivan brushed past each other.
"Shoo shoo shoo!!"
"Puff!"
The flying knife pierced through the air, penetrating Senior Shen Heng's chest.
Ivan added another sword, completely piercing his throat.
"How is this possible……"
"Is this Artistic Conception Divine?"
Senior Shen Heng dissipated into the air with a shocked face.
"That's right!" Ivan revealed a confident smile.
【Semi-final Match 1: Ivan Petrov (Mao Xiong) wins!】
Above the arena, the intelligent voice announced.
"Clap clap!!"
Ivan Petrov listened to the applause and cheers; the championship was already within reach.
It was already in his pocket.
……
In the high-level spectator area.
In the Xia Guo area, many people's faces looked ugly after seeing Senior Shen Heng's defeat.
The Shanhe King spoke:
"It is Artistic Conception Divine!"
Xu Wenji said with a serious expression:
"Artistic Conception Divine is the level of the late Fourth Stage, reaching a higher realm in the understanding of martial arts techniques."
"At the mid-Fourth Stage, one can integrate the power of artistic conception into every move."
"And the late Fourth Stage, which is Artistic Conception Divine, is not limited to being used on the martial artist themselves, but is similar to a magnetic field, causing an impact on the surroundings."
"Senior Shen Heng was affected, his sword technique deviated, leading to losing the match."
"For their level, a slight deviation is enough to affect the outcome."
"This Ivan Petrov hid too deeply; only now did he reveal his late Fourth Stage technique."
Xue Zhou also sighed:
"Seventh Realm, late Fourth Stage; this is not weak even among Seventh Realm martial artists."
"Senior Shen Heng's defeat is not unjust."
"If he can't win the championship with this, heaven will not tolerate it."
The others nodded; Ivan's current strength was too strong, and the others were completely no match.
"Haha!!"
At this moment, on their right hand side, in the Mao Xiong Nation's spectator area, someone laughed.
Everyone looked over; this was a tall, plump black-haired woman.
She was 1.9 meters tall, with a charming temperament, beautiful and deep eyes, wearing a white and blue robe, and her whole body exuded strong mental fluctuations.
Her red lips pursed slightly, revealing a proud smile:
"Shanhe King, the champions of the previous two sessions were taken by your Xia Guo."
"But the champion of this Global Martial Arts Tournament is definitely going to be my disciple."
The Shanhe King remained calm and spoke:
"Ice and Snow King, it seems you have taken in a good disciple."
"With a boundless future, he will also be a powerful Ninth Realm martial artist in the future."
"Congratulations!"
"However, the competition is not over yet."
The Ice and Snow King said indifferently:
"Oh, you are counting on that genius Lin Qi."
"He is indeed a top-tier genius, but if he wants to win the championship, he should wait for the next session." Li Qifeng also spoke slowly:
"Perhaps, this session will be enough!"
……
Following Senior Shen Heng's defeat, the Xia Guo audience immediately felt low.
"It's over, Senior Shen Heng lost."
"The championship is gone!"
"There is still Lin Qi; he might not lose!"
"It's useless even if Lin Qi goes up; Ivan is too strong."
Senior Shen Heng, in the spectator area, also heard the discussions of others around him, and his face looked ugly.
"No, Ivan has already successfully broken through to the late Fourth Stage."
!
"If I had a few more days, I would also have been able to make my sword technique break through."
Unfortunately, there were no "ifs."
He had already lost.
……
Not far away, Lin Qi shook his head; Senior Shen Heng had lost, it seemed it would still be up to him.
The people beside him were also plunged into the shock of Senior Shen Heng losing the battle.
Wan Ming sighed:
"What a pity, Senior Shen Heng was eliminated, and all hopes are pinned on Lin Lin Qi Ge."
Jiang Tao also nodded:
"Lin Lin Qi Ge, our Xia Guo is counting on you."
Lin Qi also slowly stood up and said:
"The championship is also my goal, but before that, I need to enter the finals."
After saying this, he was rushed onto the arena by a burst of crimson light.
At the same time, in the distant Tianzhu Nation spectator area, a pillar of light also descended onto the arena together.
"Boom!!"
On the arena, the crimson pillar of light dissipated.
Lin Qi walked out slowly; he held a spear in one hand, looking at this opponent—Nitin Lei Di.
Nitin was bald, wearing a gray combat suit; he had an ordinary appearance and a calm expression.
But his body was lean, only 1.85 meters tall, and his muscles seemed to be highly concentrated, with a solid and heavy temperament.
He swung a blue spear with one hand, and his momentum continued to increase.
Lin Qi looked at Nitin curiously, and the other party's information appeared in his mind.
The other party was an ascetic monk from the Tianzhu Nation, a monk from childhood to adulthood.
After the Disaster Beast invasion, the temple still existed and was living well.
Because the temple often gave birth to geniuses with exceptionally powerful comprehension and talent, the strongest person in the Tianzhu Nation was an ascetic monk.
Nitin was one of them, and he might be the strongest genius in the Tianzhu Nation in recent years.
Compared to Senior Shen Heng, Ivan, and Genos, he was also very low-key.
But his strength could not be underestimated, especially since the other party was the same as him, both practicing spear techniques.
Perhaps he could make his spear technique improve.
Nitin looked at Lin Qi, whose aura was constantly increasing.
His expression was serious; Lin Qi was like a beast hidden in the darkness, only faintly seeing a bit of claws and fangs.
When he completely walked out of the darkness, he would devour everything in front of him.
Nitin held his spear in the middle and said seriously: "Lin Qi of the Xia Guo, please enlighten me!"
Lin Qi nodded and also raised his spear; he could feel that the other party was a pure person.
【Countdown: ……3, 2, 1】
【Semi-final Match 2 officially begins!】
Following the emotionless announcement of the intelligent female voice, the battle was on the verge of breaking out.
"Whoosh!!"
In an instant, the temperature on the arena plummeted, and white and blue patterns instantly appeared under Nitin's skin.
Centered on his feet, frost visibly condensed on the concrete road.
"Whoosh~"
Nitin made the first move, his spear tracing a beautiful arc.
Wherever the spear tip passed, the water vapor in the air instantly condensed into ice needles, shooting out like ten thousand arrows fired at once.
"Boom!!"
At the same time, Lin Qi's body erupted with golden light, and golden sharpness was released from his body.
The golden sharpness in the air turned into sharp blades; he opened his Golden Pupils, and all the ice needles released in the air fell into his line of sight.
He controlled the golden sharpness to be released.
In the air, all the ice needles and golden sharp blades collided first, energy vibrating.
Special abilities collided in the sky; on the ground, Nitin launched an attack with agile movements.
His speed was extraordinarily fast, and a bone-chilling cold wind blew past.
The spear thrust out, the blue spear light condensed cold ice, artistic conception emerged and integrated, forming an ice dragon.
"Ice Dragon Spear Technique" — Dragon Roar!
Seeing this, Lin Qi unleashed the "Shanhe Spear Technique," golden spear light spitting, golden sharpness condensed and swept out with the great spear.
Shanhe Collapse!
"Bang!!"
Golden light and ice dragon collided, erupting with brilliant light, the air exploded, and ice chips splashed everywhere.
Lin Qi felt a bone-chilling cold attack, and a thin layer of ice even stained the spear shaft.
He could feel the temperature of the air constantly dropping; if this continued, the lower the temperature, the greater the impact on himself.
Nitin also felt a powerful force impact his body, making his arms numb and his blood surging.
So strong!
He frowned; he was worthy of being the person who defeated "Iron Tower" Genos.
This power impact was too fierce; for ordinary people to go head-to-head with him was just looking for death.
"Clang clang!!"
Lin Qi exhaled, his Golden Pupils operating; he penetrated through Nitin's combat suit and skin and flesh, deep into it, seeing the other party's control of force.
And the movement trajectory of the special ability 【Ice】.
It was all laid bare in his eyes, and he felt it was very interesting after seeing it.
Fighting a battle with Nitin, his gains would not be bad.
