Chapter 131. Sword Master vs. Thunder God of War (3)

"Zi Liu——"

Fu Yunhui's insulated gloves tightened amidst the crackling of electricity, and the hem of his dark purple jacket was whipped up in a sharp arc by the sandstorm.

He stood like a bayonet in the center of the simulated battlefield, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly at his taut jawline.

Suddenly, the curtain of yellow sand was torn open by some invisible force, and half of a gleaming sword blade was revealed in the cracks—the sound of the blade cutting through the sand reached the eardrums even before the "tap-tap" of boot heels striking the ground.

"Sword Master."

Fu Yunhui's greeting, laced with grit, hurtled towards the other side, each word grinding between his teeth with a metallic taste.

"you are late."

He declared war on the forum at 3 p.m., and Fu Yunhui arrived on time, but he didn't arrive until half an hour later.

"Sorry, I've never been to a simulated battlefield before, it took me a while to find the place."

The white-robed swordsman, dressed in a long robe, stood amidst the yellow sand, holding his sword and nodding slightly. He spoke politely and courteously, his cool voice carrying a strong sense of nonchalance as it echoed through the sand.

Fu Yunhui clicked his tongue in displeasure.

He invited Yin Ju to go swimming in the morning, and in preparation for their afternoon sparring session, he hurriedly ate lunch and immediately went to the training ground to practice.

Yin Ju was drinking tea beside him, and he commented that Young Master Fu hadn't been this diligent in a long time.

He himself indeed attached great importance to this sparring match, after all, before Jiang Jianxin arrived, he was ranked first on the war faction list.

— He awakened his talent at the age of four, joined the War Alliance at the age of five, became the number one on the War Ranking at the age of fifteen, and has dominated the rankings for several years now. He has only suffered one defeat in a one-on-one duel, which was against the Fool Giant of the Chaos Faction.

Fu Yunhui thought he was invincible in the war camp, but then a Sword Master suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

His eyes were fixed on the girl in white before him, and he said solemnly:
"I applied for a public simulation battlefield. This battle will be broadcast live in its entirety. I hope that Sword Master can show his true strength and take this sparring seriously."

Because I had only seen Jiang Jianxin's combat videos online and had never witnessed her true strength, and because some gifted individuals in the supernatural world use illegal means such as potions and contaminated tools to enhance their strength, they used the "sixth man" tactic in battle.

Fu Yunhui specifically applied for an online live stream—because he wanted a fair match.

From the moment Jiang Jianxin's longsword sliced ​​through the yellow sand and gracefully appeared, the live broadcast signal of this battle was connected to the battle section of the Ping An Forum and broadcast to viewers across the entire network in real time.

Jiang Jianxin slightly raised his sword, and the bright blade of the Tangguang Sword reflected the surging yellow sand around him.

However, the next second, the sand and dust twisted and decomposed like data streams, transforming into countless fine, transparent bullets that floated like bubbles on the sword's edge:

Wow, front row, front row! Liu Ming is here!

[It was a live stream! Mom, I'm so proud of myself! I witnessed the Sword Master battling the Thunder God of War with my own eyes!]

[Who do you all think will win? Actually, I'm more inclined to support Young Master Fu. After all, Thunder God of War is a veteran powerhouse, while Sword Master has only been around for a few months and just has the air of a packaged internet celebrity powerhouse.]

[I also support Fu Yunhui, the Thunder God of War, his thunderous power is truly awe-inspiring!]

[Support Sword Master! The world's number one war tycoon!]

[I don't understand why anyone supports Thunder God of War. Is that huge war ranking just for show? Sword Master is three or four thousand more battle points than Thunder God of War, isn't he?]

[Emmm... to reply to the comment above, the main issues are elemental advantage, the mage has a long reach, and Young Master Fu can control lightning. Won't the Sword Master get electrocuted wielding an iron sword...? I can only say that they are indeed difficult to deal with.]

……

The live stream was packed with people, especially from the moment Jiang Jianxin appeared, when the number of viewers jumped to a million and was trending toward ten million.

The online gossip didn't affect Jiang Jianxin. She merely glanced at the barrage of comments appearing on her sword before turning her attention back to the battlefield. Autumn winds howled past, carrying sand and dust, stirring up a hazy, yellowish mist. Fine grains of sand brushed against the blade, emitting a faint, sharp whistling sound, like the low murmur of some ancient weapon.

The entire battlefield was shrouded in sandstorms, making even the light murky and sharp, as if the air itself had been cleaved into countless invisible blades.

If she hadn't clearly seen the data stream on the sword, she would have really thought this was reality.

But in reality, this is a virtual battlefield developed by the Dream Pavilion, which the Alliance invested heavily in. It is essentially a man-made pollution tool. The entrance is a large black screen. It was this thing that Jiang Jianxin searched for for half an hour.

The white-robed swordsman on the battlefield raised his hand and lightly flicked away the swirling dust, speaking unhurriedly:

"My war ranking is higher than yours—please make the first move."

Fu Yunhui gritted his teeth, thinking that this Sword Master really knew how to rub salt in the wound. He was already resentful about losing his top spot on the rankings, and now she was bringing up something he didn't want to hear. He immediately shouted angrily:
"Then I won't be polite."

"Take this! Thunder Serpent Coil!"

Fu Yunhui removed the black gloves from both hands, and lightning gathered in his palms as he launched his first attack at Jiang Jianxin.

Purple lightning struck, but Jiang Jianxin raised his hand and blocked it with a faint sword aura.

It was clear that Fu Yunhui's initial stance was merely a probing attack, and she said bluntly:
"Lord Thunder God of War, you should practice more. Is this little bit of electricity just a tickle for my Tang Guang?"

Fu Yunhui sneered:

"I hope you'll still be this cheeky when you get struck by lightning later."

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and pointed upwards.

Jiang Jianxin felt that this action looked familiar, as if Yin Ju also liked to do it.

Sure enough, Fu Yunhui shouted loudly:

"The clouds of calamity gather, and thunder roars!"

“Boom!”

The sky suddenly changed color, with thick, inky thunderclouds surging and gathering, completely different from the gray, watery clouds summoned by Yin Ju. This calamity cloud was as black as an abyss, with lightning bolts dancing wildly among its layers, and every flash of purple light carried a chilling aura of destruction.

Jiang Jianxin, dressed in flowing white robes, gracefully retreated the instant the lightning struck. Where he had stood, the yellow earth was now scorched and cracked, wisps of smoke rising from the burning fissures.

A sudden gust of wind arose, and the yellow sand surged like a raging torrent.

Fu Yunhui raised his arms high, lightning crackling between his fingers, his solemn face flickering in and out of focus in the electric light.

"Thunderbolt—A Thousand Pounds!"

"Boom--!"

The sky shattered, and dozens of lightning bolts as thick as buckets tore through the clouds. Silver-purple lightning intertwined to form a net of death, crashing down on the white-clad figure.

Just as the lightning was about to engulf everything—

"Andetang's sword, cross the sea and kill the whale!"

With a clear shout, Jiang Jianxin's three-foot-long sword unleashed a blinding white light. The sword energy, like a rainbow, actually cleaved a vacuum rift in the sea of ​​thunder.

Two world-destroying forces collided with a deafening roar, and the resulting shockwaves whipped up the yellow sand within a radius of a hundred feet, instantly unleashing a dazzling golden rain of sand.
