Chapter 36: Advance to the finals (second update)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Phew——

A sound broke through the air.

Qin Zhiyue shook the whip in her hand and suddenly attacked Luo Fan.

Qin Zhiyue has a long whip in her hand, which is three feet long, but in her hand it is extremely flexible and can be used with ease.

The long whip shook, and the head of the whip shot towards Luo Fan like a straight arrow.

There is a small blade at the head of the whip, which is very sharp. This thrust pierces the air flow, which is why the sound of breaking through the air is made.

Qin Zhiyue held the handle of the whip and could control the direction of the whip at any time. Although the whip was now stabbing straight, the attack had actually enveloped Luo Fan's body.

Faced with such an attack, it is difficult to resist it with pure brute force. It requires equally dexterous attacks to be able to resist it relatively easily.

Because of this, Luo Fan did not use his personal favorite spear in this duel, but chose two swords.

Using a treasured spear, Luo Fan can also block the opponent's whip technique, but it takes several times more energy, but with two swords, it is much easier.

Luo Fan flicked his right wrist, and the sword in his hand instantly stabbed out, directly piercing the small whip blade that shot out.

Seeing this, Qin Zhiyue's palm holding the handle of the whip trembled, and the whole long whip suddenly flew like a long snake. The small blade of the whip that was thrust straight towards Luo Fan suddenly swayed and missed the sword thrust out by Luo Fan.

It burst into Luo Fan's chest.

Luo Fan had already expected this. He raised his left hand and slashed upward with the sword in his hand. The speed was so fast that a streak of metallic white light was drawn.

Before the small blade of the whip hit Luo Fan's body, it was deflected by the sword blade and bounced two meters away with a crisp clang.

Luo Fan's reaction speed, the speed at which he drew his sword was so fast, and the position of his sword was so precise, which shocked Qin Zhiyue. Luo Fan was actually very skilled in using both swords, and was not unfamiliar at all.

It can be seen that Luo Fan's swordsmanship skills are also extremely strong.

It is difficult for a warrior to become proficient in a weapon. For example, among the four hundred new disciples, less than one-tenth can be considered proficient in a weapon.

Qin Zhiyue herself was only proficient in the whip technique, and she put almost all her energy into it to achieve the whip technique she has today.

Luo Fan's proficiency in spear skills was as good as Qin Zhiyue's whip skills, and he was also proficient in swordsmanship, which surprised Qin Zhiyue.

Moreover, swordsmanship is divided into single sword and double sword. The difficulty of using double sword is much higher than that of using single sword.

If a middle-aged warrior spends all his time practicing martial arts after he has lost much potential in practice, because he has enough time to practice martial arts, he may become proficient in two or more weapons.

But Luo Fan was only fourteen years old, and he didn't have enough time no matter what. Even if he started practicing from his mother's womb, he only had more than ten years. Being able to master two weapons was simply a miracle.

Usually, only those warriors who are naturally adapted to various weapons and can use various weapons with twice the result with half the effort compared to ordinary warriors can become proficient in two or more weapons at a young age.

This kind of person has a recognized title, which is called "Martial Arts Wizard", which corresponds to the "Martial Arts Genius" who practices very quickly.

Martial arts wizards are naturally much better than ordinary warriors because of their adaptability to weapons. Their strength is usually stronger than warriors of the same level, and they even have the ability to leapfrog challenges.

Luo Fan's martial arts cultivation is at the second level, but he can defeat opponents at the third level of martial arts. He is also proficient in two types of weapons: spears and double swords. He is obviously a "martial arts wizard" and a very outstanding martial arts wizard.

Although Qin Zhiyue was surprised, her attack was not ambiguous at all. She waved her arms, and the long whip in her hand swayed like a snake. She was extremely flexible and continued to attack Luo Fan.

Luo Fan held a sword in each hand. Both swords were as fast as lightning to defend against the opponent's long whip.

No matter how unpredictable Qin Zhiyue's long whip attack was, at most it could only surpass Luo Fan's first sword. Luo Fan's second sword attack was able to hit the opponent's long whip away accurately when Qian Jun fired.

Ding ding ding ding...

Luo Fan swung his swords so fast that the sword light almost enveloped his whole body. The long whip that attacked strangely was repulsed by Luo Fan time and time again, with a continuous crisp sound.

The disciples who were watching the battle watched the battle intently. They were all dazzled. They saw the sword light flying and the long whip advancing and retreating. The duel between the two seemed to be in a stalemate.

To be precise, Qin Zhiyue was constantly attacking, while Luo Fan was blindly defending. However, Luo Fan defended flawlessly. Although he was on the defensive, he did not lose at all.

Time flies quickly, and the two exchange moves one after another.

The two exchanged more than fifty blows, and the evil smile on Luo Fan's face became stronger and stronger. He had basically figured out 70% to 80% of Qin Zhiyue's whip skills.

Qin Zhiyue's face became more and more serious. After she had finished using her whip skills, she started to use repeated tricks, but Luo Fan had been able to resist them with ease.

The whip technique failed to threaten Luo Fan the first time, but the second time it was used, the threat to Luo Fan was obviously even lower.

Luo Fan used his two swords to resist Qin Zhiyue's whip attack, which did not consume much physical energy. The physical energy consumption was less than a quarter of that of using the spear technique to resist. After fighting for more than fifty moves, Luo Fan still had plenty of physical strength.

When Qin Zhiyue performed several similar whipping moves, Luo Fan chuckled, took a step forward, and launched a counterattack against Qin Zhiyue.

Luo Fan stepped forward step by step, waving his swords, blocking and repelling Qin Zhiyue's whip attacks, and gradually got closer to Qin Zhiyue.

The advantage of the whip method is that it can defeat the enemy from a long distance. If Luo Fan gets close to Qin Zhiyue, the latter's advantage will be gone.

Qin Zhiyue knew very well that once Luo Fan got close to her, she would not be able to withstand Luo Fan's sword skills and would be defeated, so she quickly retreated.

However, when retreating, Qin Zhiyue had to keep using her whip technique, but her speed was not as fast as Luo Fan's approach. The distance between the two kept getting closer.

From three feet to two feet, the distance soon reached ten feet!

All the disciples watching the battle held their breaths. This duel has reached a critical moment. As the distance between the two people gets closer and closer, although most of the disciples don't want to see Luo Fan win, they can win.

The scales are obviously shifting towards Luo Fan.

When the distance between the two was only about ten feet, Qin Zhiyue's eyes suddenly flashed with a serious expression.

"Wind and Flying Tornado!"

Qin Zhiyue shouted loudly, her clothes shook violently, her black hair flew, her aura suddenly increased, and her arms swung violently.

I saw the long whip in her hand swinging violently and flying. The three-foot-long whip rotated rapidly, like a long dragon flying into the sky, and the attack suddenly became violent.

Qin Zhiyue has very high attainments in the whip technique. The middle-grade martial art 'Flying Dragon Whip Technique' she has cultivated has reached the level of Dacheng. She is able to perform the ultimate killing move in the whip technique. Her strength is much higher than Shangguan Yun, and she is at the peak of the third level of martial arts.

Extremely top level.

Qin Zhiyue's burst of strength was clearly a step higher when she unleashed the ultimate killing move of the 'Flying Wind and Dragon Scroll'. If Luo Fan had only been at the level of strength he had shown just now, then... he would have suffered a big loss in the face of this move.

The outcome of this battle may be reversed in an instant.

Seeing Qin Zhiyue suddenly making such a terrifying move when she was at a disadvantage, most of the disciples looked stunned and showed surprise.

If Qin Zhiyue can defeat Luo Fan, this is obviously a result they would like to see.

However, in just a blink of an eye, the look of surprise on the disciple's face solidified.

I saw that Ding Ding Ding Ding burst into a burst. In a blink of an eye, Luo Fan blocked at least the last ten attacks and blocked Qin's big killing trick back.

Although this move 'Flying Wind and Dragon Scroll' is powerful, it is also derived from the whip technique performed by Qin Zhiyue. In fact, the attack routine is still the same, but it is more powerful, faster, and more difficult to resist.

Luo Fan had just exchanged dozens of moves with Qin Zhiyue and had already figured out Qin Zhiyue's whip technique. Although the latter's attacks were fast and violent, Luo Fan still resisted them one by one.

Luo Fan looked as usual, blocking Qin Zhiyue's killing move without any difficulty. This shocked Qin Zhiyue, Luo Fan's strength was even more terrifying than she expected.

Swish, swish, swish...

The sword light formed into pieces and was swung out one after another. Luo Fan strode forward, getting closer and closer to Qin Zhiyue, and accelerated the speed of closing the distance.

Qin Zhiyue had already used her most powerful killing moves and had no chance of recovery. After resisting several moves from Luo Fan, she saw that Luo Fan was about to come closer and quickly admitted defeat.

"I surrender."

Qin Zhiyue put away her whip skills, raised her white and tender neck, and said a little aggrievedly.

Luo Fan's swordsmanship also paused momentarily, and the tip of the sword was still one foot away from Qin Zhiyue's pink neck.

Putting away his swords, Luo Fan said nothing more.

Qin Zhiyue glanced at Luo Fan and saw that Luo Fan did not look proud, nor did he mean to ridicule her. She felt a little more interested in this boy who was one year younger than her.

"Do you really have any hope of defeating Lin Dingtian?" Qin Zhiyue asked, a little excited in her voice.

After this battle, she also gained some confidence in Luo Fan.

Donglin Hall has occupied the first place in the entry competition for too long. It has been for several consecutive years. Whether it is Zishan Hall, Qinghe Hall, or Dongyang Hall, they all want to knock Donglin Hall down from the first position.

If Luo Fan can really defeat Lin Dingtian and let the number one position of Donglin Hall change hands, Qin Zhiyue will be very happy.

Luo Fan looked at Qin Zhiyue, with an evil smile on his face, and nodded slightly.

His expression was indifferent, but his eyes were firm and unquestionable.

Qin Zhiyue blinked her beautiful eyes, looked at Luo Fan and her eyes shone brighter, and said, "I'm looking forward to it."

After saying this, Qin Zhiyue withdrew from the duel venue.

Zheng Xinghe, the elder of Qinghe Hall, looked overjoyed and announced: "Luo Fan wins and advances to the finals."

Even if Luo Fan loses to Lin Dingtian in the finals, Qinghe Hall will still be ranked second in this entry competition.

From being at the bottom of the last term, and for two consecutive years, to being ranked second in one fell swoop, this is a great honor for Qinghe Hall, and everyone in Qinghe Hall is happy.

Moreover, if Luo Fan wins in the final... that will make Qinghe Hall the first place!

This result is exciting just thinking about it.
