Mu Yuesheng found it unbelievable, so with a low growl, she shot out another Lightning Cannon!
This time, everyone was fully focused on Sunless. They finally saw Sunless' actions clearly. She did not slash out with her sword. All she did was gently shake it, but this gentle shake was enough to instantly obliterate the Lightning Cannon!
Everyone was astounded, but Sunless finally moved. She ran towards Mu Yuesheng, but her running posture was not as otherworldly as everyone imagined. Instead, she lowered her body and spread her arms behind her, as though she was a smart sprinter.
Sunless' eyes were cold and her speed was extremely fast. In a blink of an eye, she appeared in front of Mu Yuesheng.
Mu Yuesheng was still surprised by the gentle shake of the dissipated Lightning Cannon. Instead of being alarmed, she was overjoyed when she saw Sunless charging at her at an extremely fast speed.
When Sunless was only ten meters away from her, the throbbing electric bolts formed a barrier around her like violent pixies.
"Heavenly Lightning Summoning!"
The icy-blue electric barrier mixed with resplendent gold suddenly exploded outwards, transforming into a bluish-gold electric current that spread out. It instantly enveloped Sunless within it!
Against the bluish-gold electric current that surged at her like a tidal wave, Sunless did not show any signs of panic. With a flip of her wrist, the silver sword in her hand spun gently, extinguishing all the electric bolts. She raised her sword and stabbed straight at Mu Yuesheng, as though the sword had fused with her as one.
Mu Yuesheng's pupils constricted as she teleported a hundred meters away with the throbbing electric bolts. At the critical moment, she had used 'Lightning Flash', narrowly dodging the simple and unadorned stab.
Sunless' strike missed as she came to a halt. She did not pursue. She was truly as agile as a cunning rabbit, but as silent as a virgin.
"Wow, interesting!"
The audience was in an uproar. This short exchange was extremely interesting!
Mu Yuesheng took a deep breath as she frowned slightly. Although she did not suffer any injuries in this exchange, she was at a disadvantage in every aspect. Sunless had effortlessly extinguished her electric powers. This was completely out of her expectations, and it had subverted everything she knew.
"I can only use that move."
Mu Yuesheng looked at Sunless. The girl that was as cold as a fairy had given her a great shock. It was as though she could not stir up much waves in front of her, but this similarly ignited an intense fighting spirit in her.
Mu Yuesheng's eyes turned solemn as she transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged forward!
"Electric Field!"
Mu Yuesheng disappeared. She disappeared from the audience's vision. At the same time, an icy-blue bolt of lightning suddenly darted across the arena at an extremely fast speed. Mu Yuesheng's figure only appeared at the instant the bolt of lightning turned. The bolt of lightning was moving crazily, making it difficult for the naked eye to capture it.
"Zi zi zi!"
The sizzling sound of the electric current was the only sound at the moment.
At this moment, almost everyone in the audience stood up. This crazy movement was almost instantaneous. If it was a sudden attack at a certain moment, who could react in time?
There was no way to dodge this attack. One could only rely on a Psionic Barrier to forcefully defend against it, but could a Psionic Barrier withstand Mu Yuesheng's attack?
However, despite being in a situation where she could be attacked at any time and was unable to counterattack, Sunless remained calm. Even when Mu Yuesheng brushed past her at a certain moment, causing a violent wind to blow up her long hair, she still stood there silently. She did not even frown.
The audience stared with widened eyes as they held their breaths, afraid that they would miss the impending moment. When would Mu Yuesheng suddenly attack, and how would Sunless respond?
At this moment, Sunless suddenly took a step to the right and raised the silver sword in her right hand.
"Zi zi zi … Puah!"
At the instant Sunless raised her sword, the electric current dissipated with a puah sound. As for the crazily darting icy-blue electric current, it also dissipated like smoke.
Mu Yuesheng's movement came to an abrupt halt. Her body came to an abrupt halt, not daring to make the slightest movement. As for Sunless, the sword that she had raised was firmly on Mu Yuesheng's neck.
Sunless did not turn around. She did not even turn her head. She raised her sword with a calm expression, like an ancient well without any ripples.
"Zeus' side wins."
The elderly God of Swords announced the outcome of the match.
The audience fell silent for a few seconds before they erupted into the craziest applause and screams of the day. There were no words to describe this shocking scene. Against the darting electric current that could not be captured by the naked eye, Sunless had only taken a step forward. By raising her sword, she had disintegrated Mu Yuesheng's attack that had yet to arrive. She had even ended the battle!
Sunless slowly sheathed her sword and turned to leave. She did not like the deafening cheers.
"What … sword technique is this?"
Mu Yuesheng asked softly. She looked somewhat desolate. She had tried her best, but she had been utterly defeated. She did not even know what her opponent had done. She once believed that even if she was inferior to a super rookie, she could at least last for a period of time. She never expected to be so easily crushed.
Was there such an invisible chasm between her and a super rookie?
Mu Yuesheng's voice was nearly inaudible amidst the deafening cheers, but Sunless heard it. She stopped in her tracks and slowly shook her head. She said, "No … using sword techniques."
Sunless' voice was completely different from what she imagined. It did not sound cold at all. Instead, it sounded like an introverted girl, a girl who rarely spoke. It was soft, inexperienced and very pleasant to the ears.
However, this pleasant voice sounded like a bolt from the blue when it entered Mu Yuesheng's ears. She turned her head with great difficulty to look at Sunless. She was at a loss for words with her mouth agape. She had been completely defeated without using any sword techniques?
Mu Yuesheng suddenly instinctively sensed something amiss. She subconsciously took a deep breath as her eyes nearly popped out … Where's the air?
Sunless turned her head and exchanged glances with Mu Yuesheng. She remained expressionless, but it did not seem like it was because she was aloof, but because she was not good at making any expressions. Just like her voice, it was obvious that she was not good at speaking.
"Superpower."
Sunless said the word softly before turning to leave without looking back.
After Mu Yuesheng pondered for a moment, she was enlightened. A wry smile suffused across her lips. This girl … was actually a nemesis that she was powerless against.
.....
By the side of the arena, the elderly God of Swords and One-Pun stood side by side. The elderly God of Swords shook his head and sighed. He looked rather regretful.
"This child is not bad. He's a talent that can be molded, but when he meets Qinger, he is like a mouse meeting a cat. He has no means of putting up any resistance. Sigh, what a pity. There's temporarily no chance for you to witness Qinger's sword techniques."
The elderly God of Swords sighed, but the smile on his face was filled with pride and smugness.
One-Pun fell silent and moments later, he said, "If I'm not wrong, Sunless' superpower … is related to air?"
The elderly God of Swords immediately grinned and said two words while laughing.
"Vacuum!"
One-Pun shook his head with a wry smile. He was momentarily at a loss for words.
A vacuum was equivalent to insulation, so how could electric currents exist?
It was no wonder Mu Yuesheng's electric currents would instantly dissipate in front of Sunless. She was a natural nemesis.
.....
The audience enthusiastically discussed the short but exciting battle. There were all sorts of speculations. The audience, who did not know what was going on, nearly deified Sunless' sword techniques. They believed that Sunless' ability to shatter lightning was miraculous.
The three-minute interval quickly ended amidst the heated discussions.
When Heartless walked into the arena, the audience spontaneously quietened down. The battle exchange's seventh battle was about to begin. It was also the last battle of the battle exchange.
At the same time, it was also the battle that the audience looked forward to the most.
It was not because the battle would be exciting, but because Heartless had said that he would end the battle in three seconds. This meant that they would be able to see the glory of Heartless using all his strength.
At this moment, a burly figure walked out from another passageway. His extremely ferocious face left people shuddering in fear. However, after the pre-battle declaration, the audience had mixed feelings towards this ferocious but kind-hearted hunk.
Ye Jiaquan walked into the arena and faced Heartless from afar.
"Long time no see."
Ye Jiaquan looked at Heartless and scratched his head, like a bashful boy.
Heartless was expressionless, but his eyes were cold. He said coldly, "I never expected that after so many years, you are still such trash."
When the audience heard these two sentences, they fell completely silent. What was going on? The two of them knew each other long ago?
At this moment, a cold beam shot out. It was a silver sword. With a clang, the sword stabbed into the ground in front of Ye Jiaquan.
When the audience saw the silver sword, they stared with widened eyes. This sword …
Wasn't that Sunless' sword?
.....
Outside the arena, a speeding figure came to a stop just as he was about to slam into the arena's wall.
He slowly took a few steps back. His expression was calm, but his eyes were somewhat cold.
"This King is here."
.....
(Author's Note: Man, I wrote this plot mainly to portray the more important supporting characters in the subsequent mass selection plot. I never expected that not seeing Shi Xiaobai for a day would feel like three autumns had passed. What a mistake. Don't be anxious. Shi Xiaobai will be released soon. Although it won't be as satisfying as everyone wants, please read the next few chapters patiently. One book, one story. It's definitely not enough to write about a single person. Since we are about to enter the grand plot, it's best to first enrich the supporting characters.)
