Fairy Tail: I'm invincible when I receive anime characters!

Boom!

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!"

"Qi Yan vs. Erza!!"

"I don't know how long it's been since I last saw them!!"

"This is amazing!!"

"I'm fired up!!"...

Everyone roared with excitement, a testament to the sheer brilliance of the duel between the two S-class mages.

"No...no way...?! The two of them?! Are you serious?!"

Lucy's eyes widened. Qi Yan and Erza were the two strongest people she had met since joining Fairy Tail. Wouldn't it be earth-shattering if these two fought?

Elfman crossed his arms and said, "Of course we're serious! What kind of man wouldn't be serious?!"

Mira smiled and said, "Erza is a girl."

Marcus quipped, "A monster woman."

Gray said, "If we're talking about monsters, Qi Yan is the real monster."

He remembered that Qi Yan had already demonstrated the strength of an S-rank mage when he first joined the guild, and later he went on a rampage, with each battle record more terrifying than the last.

Elfman said with great interest, "A battle between monsters, that's going to be super exciting!"

"I don't want to!! I don't want to see any of them lose!!"

Lucy closed her eyes and waved her hand, as if she couldn't bear to watch the two fight.

Gray remarked, "Unexpectedly innocent."

However, the duel will not stop because of Lucy's innocence.

Soon, everyone made way for the two of them, allowing them to fight to their hearts' content.

Qi Yan looked at Erza and said, "How long ago was the last time we fought?"

Erza replied, "Six months ago, I was defeated by you in one move. It was a perfect sword strike, and I benefited greatly from that battle."

Six months ago, not long after Qi Yan and Erza completed an SS-rank mission together, Erza challenged Qi Yan, but Qi Yan defeated her instantly with a single move after receiving the power of Yoriichi Tsugikuni.

The entire guild was shocked at that time. They knew Qi Yan was strong, but they never expected him to be this strong, especially since his opponent was Erza.

Since then, Erza has devoted herself to swordsmanship training in addition to her work, and her swordsmanship has now improved significantly.

"Are you confident you can beat me now?"

"No, but I want to test just how big the gap is between us."

Chapter 73 It's time to get serious.

"start---!!"

Harpy flew between the two to announce the start, then immediately stepped back.

The moment Happy announced the start, Erza immediately charged towards Qi Yan with her sword drawn.

Qi Yan also drew his sword and charged forward.

Clang, clang, clang! ! !

The two men clashed fiercely with their weapons, and for a time they were evenly matched.

Qi Yan has also put a lot of effort into his swordsmanship over the past six months. After all, he doesn't normally use any magic, so using a receiving spell to deal with some small fry would be a waste of his talent.

Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?

Qi Yan's body has been trained using the Sun Breathing Technique, and now it is top-notch. Coupled with his five and a half stars of magic power, even without accepting any anime characters, his own combat strength is only slightly inferior to that of an S-class mage.

"Amazing!!"

Lucy was deeply shocked by the fight between the two; she couldn't even see their swords swinging clearly.

Elfman said, "Right? Brilliant, isn't it?"

Natsu, breathing fire, shouted excitedly, "I want to fight too—!!!"

Clang!

The two people exchanged blows and then separated.

"As expected of Erza!"

Qi Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Erza was indeed a genius, far superior to someone like him who had only practiced swordsmanship for half a year.

Qi Yan was not discouraged by this, because he had known for a long time that people are different.

When it comes to studying, some people can get into Tsinghua or Peking University, while others can't even get into college.

When playing games, some people reach a peak rating of 2700, while others can't even reach the King rank and don't even qualify for the peak tournament.

I am not a genius, just an ordinary person. I was able to learn the Breath of the Sun because I received Yoriichi Tsugikuni's teachings.

However, although I am not a genius, when it comes to accepting anime characters, genius is just the threshold to meet him.

Every role he takes on is for a one-in-a-million genius.

"You are the one who has reached this level of swordsmanship in just half a year. It is truly amazing."

Erza was even more shocked. She was one of the people who knew Qi Yan best. She knew that Qi Yan originally relied on receiving magic to become so powerful. She never expected that even without relying on receiving magic, his strength was already comparable to a top-tier mage in the guild.

The speed at which their strength has improved is simply outrageous.

It should be noted that her current level of swordsmanship is the result of years of arduous training and countless battles.

"Now it's time to get serious."

Erza's eyes turned serious.

"That's true, let's get serious then."

"Full Body Absorption - Yoriichi Tsugikuni!!"

Qi Yan's hair began to grow rapidly, then turned dark red, and she wore a high ponytail.

His clothes also changed, and he became dressed as a samurai, wearing a red haori and holding a long sword.

Qi Yan's irises turned red, his facial features changed slightly, he wore paper earrings with red suns on his ears, and a strange crimson mark, or pattern, appeared on his left forehead.

Just standing there gives people a strong sense of oppression.

Everyone around couldn't help but swallow hard.

Most of them had only seen Qi Yan transform once, when he defeated Erza. With just one strike, he defeated Erza, an S-class mage, which brought them unparalleled shock.

At that time, Qi Yan gave them the feeling of being powerful, incomparably powerful.

Although Qi Yan is very powerful when he takes on other characters, Yoriichi Tsugikuni is the most dangerous. Just by looking into Qi Yan's eyes in this state, they would feel like they were being seen through.

Erza felt it especially strongly at this moment.

"I didn't expect that even after half a year, this feeling hasn't changed at all!"

"Equipment Change - Emperor Yan's Armor!!"

Erza changed into the fiery red Flame Emperor Armor and held a fire sword in her hand.

"Emperor Yan Armor!! It's fire-resistant armor!!"

Everyone recognized the function of Erza's Flame Emperor Armor.

Qi Yan smiled and said, "Do you think this armor can withstand my attack?"

"Of course not, but wearing it at least makes me feel more at ease."

Erza didn't think the armor could withstand Qi Yan's attack, which could even break through the defenses of an indestructible dragon.

"Is that so? Then I'll begin my attack."

"Breath of the Sun, First Form: Waltz!!"

Qi Yan rushed towards Erza at high speed, and when he reached her, he unleashed a circular slash of sunlight.

Erza immediately swung her sword to parry and defend herself.

"Breath of the Sun, Second Form: Azure Sky!"

Qi Yan leaped into the air and unleashed a fiery slash in a circular trajectory from top to bottom, the slash resembling the sun in a clear sky.

Erza also focused all her energy on parrying.

"Sun Breathing - Third Form - Blazing Red Mirror!"

Qi Yan used his Sun Wheel Blade to trace an attack trajectory in the shape of the number ∞, making it impossible to defend against.

"Breath of the Sun - Fourth Form - Phantom Sun Rainbow!"

Erza seized the opportunity to counterattack Qi Yan, but the moment her sword pierced through Qi Yan's body, she realized something was wrong; it was just an afterimage of Qi Yan.

"Breath of the Sun, Fifth Form: Train!"

After Qi Yan somersaulted in the air, he circled behind Erza and unleashed an arc-shaped slash at her back, which Erza quickly dodged.

"Breath of the Sun, Land Form, Scorching Sun!"

Qi Yan swung his sword, unleashing a spiraling slash of yang flames.

Qi Yan methodically used the Breath of the Sun techniques to attack. The attacks came so swiftly that she was powerless to retaliate and could only defend herself with all her might.

"Breath of the Sun, Twelfth Form: Flame Dance!"

Qi Yan unleashed two consecutive semi-circular slashes.

Erza fought back with all her might and finally blocked the attack, letting out a sigh of relief.

His all-out arduous training had indeed paid off. He couldn't even withstand a single attack back then, but now he could actually block all of Qi Yan's sword strikes. He had finally...

Snap!

Erza's sword and armor shattered and fell to the ground.

"when?!"

Erza's pupils contracted sharply, and she looked extremely shocked.

When? When exactly was I attacked?

She thought she had blocked Qi Yan's attack, but she didn't realize that Qi Yan's attack had already hit her. She didn't even notice when or how many times she was hit.

Not only that, the opponent's attacks were able to just barely break the armor without her noticing. This swordsmanship made Erza tremble once again.

If he were Qi Yan's enemy, he might not even know when he would be killed.

Chapter 74 Laxus

At this moment, she understood once again that what Qi Yan said was not an exaggeration at all.

Those who don't know swordsmanship see him as a frog in a well peering at the moon in the sky; those who do know swordsmanship see him as a mayfly seeing the blue sky.

She thought that her hard work over the past six months had narrowed the gap between her and Qi Yan, but now it seems that she had completely overestimated herself.

Even now, Qi Yan remains as unfathomable as ever.

"I lost!...Thank you!"

Erza realized that with Qi Yan's strength, she would probably be defeated in one move, but he showed her all his sword techniques from beginning to end, wanting her to learn them.

"I want to know, how many times was I attacked in total?"

"Hmm... eighty-one times."

"Eighty-one times?!"

Erza couldn't believe that she had been attacked eighty-one times, and most importantly, she hadn't even noticed.

Erza didn't know that Qi Yan had already underestimated the number of attacks; to be precise, Qi Yan had attacked Erza a total of 810 times.

There's an old saying that goes, "Of all sword techniques in the world, none can be broken except speed."

Besides being exquisite, Yoriichi Tsugikuni's swordsmanship is also characterized by its speed—extremely fast.
