Arriving at the center of the basin again, Chen Xinzhu was in a good mood.
After a night of pondering, he could feel——
Dugu Nine Swords is almost finished!
Looking at the girl in orange dress not far away, Chen Xinzhu felt even better.
(Let’s win for sure today.)
…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The bell rang, and the atmosphere in the basin instantly became tense.
Master Xuan Ning walked up to Chen Xinzhu and the other eight people and looked at them carefully.
"Amitabha, the poor monk Xuan Ning hereby announces that the finals of this year's ranking competition have officially begun!"
As soon as the words fell, the audience burst into cheers and cheers.
At this point, I have to mention the rules of the finals.
There are three rounds in total in the finals of the ranking competition.
Eight goes into four, four goes into two, two goes into one.
Theoretically, as long as they win three consecutive games, anyone can take the top spot on the list.
But in the same way, as long as you lose one game, the journey to the finals is over.
In other words, if you want to win the first place in the rankings, you must not lose a single battle in the next battle!
In this extreme situation of great pressure, all the finalists are bound to show their strength.
This also makes every battle in the finals extremely exciting.
After the cheers died down, Master Xuan Ning looked at Chen Xinzhu and the others, and announced the two sides for the first battle.
"The first match is between Huashan disciple Chen Xinzhu and Duan Lian, a disciple of the Duan family!"
After Master Xuan Ning finished speaking, the atmosphere in the venue instantly rose.
"Wow, the first battle was so exciting."
"A battle between two young dark horses? It's exciting, it depends on who can win to the end!"
"Chen Shaoxia, come on..."
"Xianzi Duan, I support you!"
"..."
In the forest, Duan Ping felt a little excited.
"Xiao Lian, you want to avenge my uncle!"
…
The other side of the forest.
Murong Jiang, who was defeated by Duan Lian, and Li Yi, who was defeated by Chen Xinzhu, both looked at the two young men in the arena with complicated expressions.
In the center of the basin, Chen Xinzhu and Duan Lian were hundreds of meters apart, looking at each other from a distance.
Although the battle has not yet begun, the momentum of the two people is completely different.
There is absolutely no room for failure in this battle.
"start!"
As Master Xuan Ning's voice fell, Chen Xinzhu stepped heavily and instantly charged towards Duan Lian, who was a hundred meters away.
"Wow wow wow, Chen Shaoxia is charging again!"
"The speed is still as fast as ever!"
Seeing Chen Xinzhu's quick attack, the audience screamed in surprise for a while.
However, Duan Lian is also one of the four dark horses, so he can deal with Chen Xinzhu's quick attack calmly.
I saw him crossing his hands in front of his chest, and a faint red light instantly appeared from his fingers.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, dozens of red streams of light shot out instantly, like a meteor shower, and quickly enveloped Chen Xinzhu.
Chen Xinzhu's expression was calm, his sword was not in use, and a faint purple light also appeared on his free right hand.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
In an instant, dozens of purple sword energies met the red meteor shower that was approaching at a rapid speed.
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Like the collision of meteors in the sky, the red stream of light and the purple sword energy continued to collide between the two people, and countless fireworks exploded in an instant.
There are red and purple ones, very gorgeous.
"this--!!!"
"Niubi——!!"
Seeing the extremely fierce long-range battle at the beginning, the audience's emotions were instantly aroused.
Not far away, many Xiantian realm experts gathered together.
Ji Tianhan sighed and said softly: "One hand is against the other, it is indeed Zixia's magic skill."
Hearing this, Zhang on the side nodded slightly.
"I haven't heard of any famous fingering methods of the Huashan School. The Zixia Magic Technique is undoubtedly true."
…
In the competition arena, Chen Xinzhu and Duan Lian were still shooting at each other.
Bang! Bang!
Although Duan Lian can attack continuously with both hands, in terms of quality, her Hou Tian Qi is still not comparable to Chen Xinzhu's Zixia Sword Qi.
Chen Xinzhu suppressed Duan Lian's attack with one hand.
However, Duan Lian was still able to deal with it calmly. While shooting at Chen Xinzhu, he kept moving out of the way, never letting Chen Xinzhu get close to him.
Although Chen Xinzhu was faster, under Duan Lian's powerful firepower, he was unable to close the distance between the two parties for a while.
Duan Lian felt extremely calm as he looked at Chen Xinzhu, who was dodging and approaching dozens of meters away.
"The speed is so fast, the power is so strong, and even the sword energy is so sharp. Is it true that you have mastered the Zixia Magic Skill of the Huashan Sect?"
"However, until it is confirmed whether he has mastered the Dugu Nine Swords, he cannot attack easily and must be more cautious."
Thinking of this, Duan Lian moved her feet slightly and quickly retreated. At the same time, her hands once again emitted dozens of red streams of light, quickly covering Chen Xinzhu.
Taking advantage of Chen Xinzhu's opportunity to either forcefully attack or evade, Duan Lian once again opened the distance between the two parties.
"Fortunately, my Qinggong attainments are pretty good, otherwise it would be really difficult."
With an extremely concentrated mind, Duan Lian implemented the tactics of delaying time, exploring intelligence, and then striking a fatal blow when faced with Chen Xinzhu, a difficult opponent.
However, facing this boring offensive and defensive battle, Chen Xinzhu felt a little tired.
"It's been a few minutes since the war started, why are you still running?"
Originally, Chen Xinzhu was counting on Duan Lian to bring him some surprises, such as special skills or something.
Unexpectedly, there was a game of hide and seek??
And it seems that she is ready to keep playing...
Chen Xinzhu extinguished an incoming stream of red light with a flick of his hand, and looked at Duan Lian not far away.
have to……
Looking at her expressionless look, Chen Xinzhu still couldn't tell what she was thinking.
"In this case, I won't play with you anymore!"
Thinking of this, Chen Xinzhu's figure disappeared in an instant, and he passed through Duan Lian's red meteor shower unscathed in a few flashes.
This time, Duan Lian's attack not only failed to widen the distance between the two, but was shortened by Chen Xinzhu in an instant.
The distance between the two——
Already less than twenty meters!
Seeing this scene, other people in the venue were also a little surprised.
Murong Xiu clapped his hands lightly and said in admiration: "This speed is really great. If I had this speed, the old man would never catch me."
Hearing his incomprehensible words, Xia Lixuan couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
(wack.)
However, just when he was thinking this, Gao Xiaoguo beside him nodded in agreement.
"Yes, this speed is really enviable. If I had this speed, I wouldn't have been caught last time!"
Hearing this, Xia Lixuan's mouth twitched.
(Who are these people?)
…
Just when everyone off the court had different thoughts, the situation on the court changed again.
Bang! Bang!
Constantly adjusting the position of his feet, Duan Lian danced with his hands and created an afterimage. There were nearly a hundred streams of red light, overwhelmingly sweeping towards Chen Hsinchu.
Bang!
After smashing dozens of red streams of light, Chen Xinzhu couldn't help but frown.
He has discovered that after he increased his speed, Duan Lian's speed also increased.
After the speed increases, Duan Lian's attack angles become more diverse.
Under this overwhelming carpet attack, the distance between the two people was once again widened.
Everything is back to the way it was before.
However, Chen Xinzhu became interested now.
"Even if I haven't mastered any special skills, I can definitely gain something with this level of strength."
(Then let’s be real.)
Thinking of this, Chen Xinzhu's free right hand no longer used the sword finger, but quickly tightened the hilt of the Zixu Sword.
