The answer will be revealed soon.
"It's about to begin..."
The two stood twenty meters apart, and with a shout of force, the final battle began.
Everyone thought that Himura Tanzaku would say a few words first, as he always did. Unfortunately, the arena was too big, and the contestants were standing in the middle talking. In addition, there was a lot of noise and a lot of background noise, so it was basically impossible to hear what the contestants were saying. It was a pity that this pre-battle banter segment was wasted.
However, this time, Himura Danzao didn't say anything. He smiled, took a few steps, and stood in front of Kai. He slowly raised his fist, aimed at Kai, but didn't swing it. Instead, he just left it hanging in mid-air.
"It would be too ugly to start with a fight." Hishimura Tanzaku smiled and said, "I've always been curious about the extent of your strength... Come and give it a try."
Chapter Thirty-Seven: You wouldn't believe it, but I know this trick too!
There are two types of fighting styles among martial arts practitioners: one is verbal combat, and the other is physical combat.
Generally speaking, people choose physical confrontation because verbal confrontation is too rigid, foolish, and idiotic, and the one with the worse overall attributes will definitely not agree. But this fighting method requires both parties to agree before it can start, which is different from physical confrontation. In physical confrontation, if one party wants to fight, the other basically has no choice but to fight as well—of course, they can also run away.
Without a doubt, Kui is the strongest person in the world in terms of intellectual combat; there is no dispute about that. His physique is simply like that of a god descended to earth. Even the Primordial Alien race, known for their strength, would be sent flying by a single slap when facing him.
But now... there's actually a guy who's volunteered to fight Kuiwen.
It's less about courage and more about being crazy.
The audience could hardly hear the conversation between Kai and Hisumura Dan's. But they could clearly see their actions. Hisumura Dan's action was obvious: she was asking to wrestle with Kai.
This move immediately caused an uproar in the audience, with everyone discussing it. Jiu Yi couldn't help but say, "He's a madman... Does he really think he can win?"
"Even if we can't win, it's good to get a feel for it." As a top-tier super-elite, Nephalem sees much more. Kui isn't the type to press his advantage from the start. Himura Tan's ability to get a concrete feel for Kui's power through this contest isn't actually a foolish move. Kui will have a hard time delivering follow-up attacks; he's just bound to suffer a defeat.
"The guild has moved!"
Ji Fa suddenly spoke, and everyone looked at the center of the arena. Kui slowly stretched out his arm, which was full of muscles that reflected slightly in the sunlight. Even without striking any bodybuilding pose, it still exuded a primitive classical beauty.
"Oh.."
Himura Tanzaku chuckled, and their fists collided, confirming the audience's suspicions... the two were indeed engaged in a battle of wits, but it was actually a contest of strength!
Kui is over two meters tall, and Xiao's muscle structure also has subtle differences from humans. Although he looks strong but not fat, he weighs 260 kilograms, while Hishimura Tan's height is only 1.7 meters and her weight is just over 100 jin, or 50 kilograms. Such obvious differences are clearly visible when their arms touch, giving people a great visual impact.
This huge difference makes it hard not to feel that Himura Danzakura would shatter at the slightest touch.
When their fists collided, the entire arena fell into a brief silence. Everyone held their breath, anticipating what would happen next. Although they didn't know what would happen next, anticipation was understandable.
boom!!
A thunderous sound resounded.
Beneath Himura Tan's feet, incredibly violent internal energy surged forth. This vast internal energy swept across the area, and it was hard to imagine that Himura Tan was only this young age to possess such a massive amount of internal energy.
But what's even more astonishing is that... this internal energy, so violent, doesn't serve an offensive purpose.
Spiderweb-like cracks spread, instantly covering an area of dozens of meters in radius. The violent internal energy served to deflect the force, dissipating the terrifying power from the body and then distributing it evenly to the ground.
The crack continued to spread, relentlessly, and within seconds it had already covered almost half of the arena!
"What amazing power..."
With a violent outpouring of internal energy, Himura Tan's mana bar was dropping rapidly, like a floodgate had been opened. Yet, at this moment, he still had the mind to speak.
"I'm afraid I can't handle it, so... I'll try this."
Suddenly, Himura Danzai withdrew her fist. The action was so sudden that Kai didn't even have a chance to pull back his strength... but he didn't need to. Because soon, another fist collided with him.
The ferocious six-armed demon god suddenly appeared from behind Himura Tan's back. This time, they were unarmed and unleashed all six fists at once, clashing with Kui's fist!
This scene is amazing!
A deafening roar, like a landslide or a tsunami, erupted from the audience.
Six-Armed Demon God!
Everyone knows that this is Atuoshe's unique move, and only a very few people know that it was created by Ye Jiaofang. But in any case, only Atuoshe knows this move. Just a few days ago, Himura Tan's strange move broke this move, causing Atuoshe to be defeated without a fight.
But now, Himura Danzai has actually used this move?!
He can do that too?!
He actually knows this move too?!
Even Ying Qin Guan was a little unsettled. His eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Holy crap, he can learn it after just one glance?!"
—Because of his experience of having his consciousness slash stolen by the other party, Ying Qin Guan subconsciously felt that Hishimura Tan Sakura had learned the False Self Visualization Method after just one glance.
In fact, that is not the case.
Although Himura Tan's innate talent and comprehension are both excellent, it's impossible for her to learn the cultivation method after just one glance. Unless you have the Byakugan, which allows you to see the flow of internal energy within the meridians, the reason Himura Tan knows this technique is because she received Ye Jiaofang's true teachings at Sakura's Sword Burial Hut, which included the False Self Visualization Method... However, apart from Shen Jiu, no one knows this. Therefore, even Ying Qin Guan is extremely shocked at this moment, believing that Himura Tan truly learned it after just one glance.
He certainly didn't want to think that way, as it would be a denial of the entire martial arts system. But given that Himura Tan's past record of secretly learning the Consciousness Slash... it's really hard to say.
Regardless of the shock of the spectators, the struggle within the arena continued. The six-armed demon god unleashed all six arms and actually managed to block Kui. However, this was of little significance, as Kui was only expending a negligible amount of physical strength, while Himura Tan's was expending a dwindling amount of internal energy.
After a few seconds of stalemate, Himura Tanzaku suddenly jumped back and withdrew her six-armed demon god.
Kui calmly withdrew his fist. The fact that Hisumura Tan's sudden use of the Six-Armed Demon God had not affected him much. He didn't care about such things at all. He wouldn't understand why someone else was using someone else's unique technique.
"Impressive." He praised sincerely, "You've already consumed so much internal energy in just a short stalemate. If it had lasted a few more seconds, I'm afraid I would have been defeated without a fight... Well then, let's end this child's game here."
Himura Tanzaku gripped the hilt and slowly drew the gleaming sword.
"Perhaps I've been a bit too talkative, but please be careful. When it's time to dodge, please step back, after all..."
A cold glint flashed, and in the blink of an eye, Himura Tanzaku was in front of Kui, slashing at his throat with her sword!
"Life is very precious!"
Chapter Thirty-Eight: You lost your life, but he was injured!
Kui's throat and eyes have received special care over the past few days.
Actually, there are some more effective ways to target specific areas... However, this is ultimately for a television broadcast, a battle of honor and resolve among martial artists. Attacking those areas would only be humiliating, not helpful in winning. After all, at that level, those areas are not vital points at all.
...Well, to say it's not fatal wouldn't be quite right; it's more like it's fatal in a different way.
Closer to home.
If you don't attack that part, where should you attack to deal more damage?
The only remaining answers are basically the eyes and the throat.
Kui is, after all, an Owl. Unlike the Reverse Demon Demi-humans, whose physical structure is exactly the same as that of humans, the Owls have an exaggerated physical structure. For example, their ribs are incredibly thick, with almost no intercostal spaces. The acupoints and weaknesses that exist in humans are basically non-existent in Owls. Therefore, Owls are a natural fighting race. For example, Kui and the strongest alien race below the progenitor, "Violence," is an Owl, and also a recognized peerless master.
But the king is even stronger.
He was the king of kings, the embodiment of invincibility and power. He had almost no weaknesses, not even his throat. If one possessed X-ray vision, one could see his thick neck, so thick that it made one hesitate to attack. However, compared to the rest of his body, this place could still be considered a weak point.
The cervical spine is such a fragile part of the body that even the slightest mistake can be fatal. While Kai's neck is no ordinary neck, neither is Hisumura Dan Sakura!
This strike will surely cut it off!
Suddenly, Hishimura Danzao's pupils dilated. He forcefully flipped over, stopping his seemingly inevitable attack.
What could possibly make Himura Danzai stop her seemingly certain strike?
The answer is...
Kui's attack!
The raised right palm struck down from right to left and from top to bottom with terrifying speed, creating a sonic boom. Even before it landed on Himura Tan's body, he could already feel the approaching, deathly wind!
If that knife were to strike, Kui would be injured, but he would lose his life. Who but Qiong Yao would dare to do this deal?!
Himura Danzai dodged the palm strike with a backflip, retreating about twenty meters away, her smile unchanged. However, the audience erupted in cheers.
This was Kui's first direct counterattack.
He still didn't block or dodge, but the difference between blocking, dodging, and counterattacking is something even someone who's never fought but has played a few games should understand. This was the first time Kai had counterattacked like this. He hadn't counterattacked like this before, even when facing ten top-tier masters, or even earlier, when facing the Sword Saint. Yet now, when Himura Tan's attack came, he counterattacked. Could this be interpreted as...?
Has Hisumura Dan's attack already become enough to threaten him?
"I had guessed that was the case."
Himura Tansaku spoke up. The arena was very noisy, even for someone of Ying Qin Guan's cultivation level. Unless one concentrated their inner energy and listened carefully, it would be impossible to hear their conversation amidst the noise. But Ying Qin Guan was clearly not that free, so this seemingly public conversation was actually the safest, as no one could hear it at all.
"But isn't this a bit too early? I thought we would spar for a while first before doing this."
Kui calmly said, "Your skills are not bad. Even if I fight like before, you are no match for me. I heard that you have the foundation of a sword saint, and you are much stronger than him. But it is not enough to defeat me. If it were normal times, I would not care, but after today's battle, I still have another battle to fight. I cannot let you leave too many injuries and affect my combat strength."
"Oh...?" Hisumura Tanzaku raised an eyebrow slightly. Without even thinking, he knew who Kai was talking about. "How unexpected, you actually know his identity?"
—Although I have said it many times, I still want to emphasize it again: although Kui is one of the strongest beings in the world, he has almost no sources of intelligence.
"You'll know as soon as you see it." Kui slightly raised his chin and said calmly, "You, come here."
“My thoughts are the same…” Himura Tanzaku slowly sheathed her sword, then bent over, lying prone on the ground. “But before that, I must overcome you…”
As Hisumura Tan's voice faded, he moved with it, like a dazzling shooting star, a cherry blossom-colored afterimage appearing behind him, bridging the distance of dozens of meters in the blink of an eye. In a daze, Hisumura Tan's figure vanished, replaced by three cherry blossom-colored sword lights, forming a triangle and slashing towards Kui!
The Nine Martial Arts of Heaven and Earth? Three Kingdoms Divided!
This is an incredible move. Internal energy separated from the body for a certain period of time and distance is uncontrollable, let alone a move like releasing internal energy from a distance. And now, Himura Tan's Sakura actually made these three sword lights appear from three different places... This move is simply fantastical.
There are no specific levels for usage and cultivation methods. The "fantasy level" does not mean that the move is powerful, but rather that its form is almost impossible to complete at first glance. For example, the Consciousness Slash and the False Self Visualization Method do not seem like skills released by martial artists. Therefore, they are jokingly called "fantasy level" or "ancestor level" skills. As the saying goes, if you don't cultivate your methods well, life will be full of fantasy. Ying Qin Guan's act of heating a hot pot with a chopstick shocked Yu Xie Tian for a hundred years.
Powerful internal energy is the foundation of everything!
The Consciousness Slash, the False Self Visualization Technique, and even the current move of Three Kingdoms, are all caused by powerful internal energy, representing a qualitative change in the methods of ordinary martial artists.
Of course, application is equally important. As the saying goes, "Practice application but not cultivation, and you'll be in your grave at forty! Practice cultivation but not application, and you'll suffer through countless youthful fist techniques!"
Such fantastical applications may not be powerful, just like the False Self Visualization Technique, which Ye Jiao quickly abandoned. But fantastical skills always have one characteristic: they kill upon first sight.
Each fantasy-level skill is unique; you cannot gain experience from facing other fantasy-level skills. Therefore, these types of moves can easily result in instant kills.
Unfortunately for him, it was Kui who was facing this move!
His movements were frantic; he suddenly spun around, his palm sweeping across his body, ensuring that Hisumura Dan's figure was hidden within the three sword lights. If he insisted on launching the attack, then Kai could also counterattack... Again, if you trade blows with Kai, he'll be injured, and you'll lose your life.
But this time, Himura Dan's courage had truly run wild. He had to attack. A surprise attack was out of the question, as Kai's speed was in no way inferior to his. Himura Dan's understanding was that, just as his strength was a weakness among peerless masters, yet he could still directly confront the top-tier super-class master Atoshe, who was known for his strength.
Therefore, he must use his inner energy to envelop himself and launch a surprise attack to see whether his inner energy will be exhausted first, or whether Kui will be unable to withstand it first.
Himura Tanzaku thought he was fully prepared, but when that heavy, sky-crushing palm strike actually landed, he discovered...
Actually, I wasn't fully prepared at all.
