A few seconds later, Yan Zheke's reply came as scheduled. She replied with a "crying face" emoji.
"Liu Xunzhen?"
"Yeah. Why do you look like that?" Lou Cheng took his phone and walked away from the screen towards the second arena.
In the third round of double-elimination, there were only four arenas left in the arena.
Yan Zheke replied kindly, "I know this guy. His supernatural ability is very, very, very troublesome. Even Dan stage Mighty Ones have a headache."
Very troublesome? Even Dan stage Mighty Ones have a headache? Lou Cheng's mind suddenly flashed with images from the promotional video. He took a deep breath and typed, "What's so troublesome?"
He had spent the past few days quietly comprehending the meaning of "Withdraw" and practicing his martial arts. He wanted to enter Dan stage as soon as possible, so he didn't study the videos of the seeded players in advance. Only when the results of the draw were out and he had a specific opponent would he seriously analyze his opponent.
"The strength of his psychokinesis is actually not that strong. He can only pick up light things out of thin air." Yan Zheke crossed her fingers and held her chin. "If he uses it to fight with toughness, it won't have a good effect on a Professional Ninth Pin fighter. But there are too many delicate and fragile parts of the human body …"
"For example, the eyes?" Lou Cheng frowned.
"Yes, yes. Although his psychokinesis can't directly gouge out his opponent's eyes or blind him, it's enough to affect his opponent and make him blind for a period of time. Sigh, in the arena, this kind of battle can easily cause injuries." Yan Zheke sighed with emotion again with an emoji of crying.
The strength of supernatural ability was not only dependent on its type, but also its strength and development. Lou Cheng's supernatural ability of ice and fire sounded good, but its strength was too low. It could only be used to light a cigarette and make a portable air conditioner. It was not powerful at all. Liu Xunzhen's psychokinesis, on the other hand, had been improved step by step from its weak state to its current level. It could obviously affect the development of the battle and the result of the battle.
— In the battle with strange supernatural abilities, the referees were usually experienced supernatural ability users. That way, they could prevent the situation from worsening. But because of the existence of instantaneous attacks, unless the referees had the ability of prophecy, there was no way to make it flawless. Of course, maliciously injuring the opponent would be punished by the law.
Lou Cheng could already imagine the horrifying effect of psychokinesis attacking the eyes from a distance. [Stunned expression] said, "This fighting style is a bit like bullying …"
"That's not all …" Yan Zheke replied. "I've seen him pinch his opponent's private part from a distance …"
"F * ck!" Lou Cheng felt a chill in his crotch and couldn't help but curse.
With the strength of Liu Xunzhen's psychokinesis, although it was impossible to cause an explosion, the pain in the balls was not a joke. It was a real pain in the balls!
How could they fight like this?
In that instant, for the sake of Ke, for the sake of the happiness of the rest of his life, he had the impulse to give up this competition …
Seeing Lou Cheng's intense reaction, Yan Zheke giggled, "Luckily, he's still a gentleman. He wouldn't attack a girl's breasts when he's fighting, and he wouldn't do that to a guy unless he had no other choice."
Fortunately, it was a single elimination tournament. If he had encountered such an opponent in a life and death battle, that would be a real pain in the ass! Lou Cheng replied with an emoji of wiping cold sweat.
After scaring her boyfriend, Yan Zheke snickered.
"Don't be afraid, young man. Charge forward bravely!"
"I've summarized a few points about his supernatural ability. First, it doesn't have any penetrative power. It's more like an invisible hand that can block. Second, its range is limited. It has almost no effect beyond 15 meters. The closer it is, the stronger the psychokinesis becomes. Third, his use of psychokinesis is like your supernatural ability of a lighter. It requires a trigger action, and there's a possibility of prediction. In fact, without the trigger action, a Dan stage Mighty One's Absolute Reaction can also detect it. However, psychokinesis is instantaneous, and the speed of transmission is said to be close to the speed of light. If there's no trigger action, even if you can sense it, you can't avoid it …"
Lou Cheng was stunned. After a long time, he said,
"Ke, how do you know so much?"
"Humph, I've studied all the videos of the 12 seeded players!" Yan Zheke raised her head and replied with an emoji of arrogance.
She didn't need to participate in the competition, so why did she put in so much effort … Lou Cheng felt warm in his heart. "Ke, you're so nice!"
Yan Zheke blushed at his sudden words. A smile appeared on her face as she hurriedly reprimanded him.
"Call me Coach Yan!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Coach Yan is the best!" Lou Cheng laughed and waved to his parents and Fatty Jiang. He found a place to sit down and watched the videos that Yan Zheke had selected. He communicated with her nervously and hurriedly.
…
Liu Xunzhen sat cross-legged in the small, empty room of the seeded players' lounge. It was dark all around and there was no sound.
In this deathly silent environment, the external sensations gradually faded. He could more clearly grasp his psychokinesis and "see" the corresponding changes in his body. The only fuzzy part was his brain.
Because his psychokinesis was too strong, it affected his spirit. Until now, he had not been able to conceal spirit and qi and enter meditation. He could only rely on this extreme environment to practice.
This was why he couldn't enter the Dan stage.
Most of the time, others saw him as a supernatural ability user, not a fighter.
Suddenly, he vaguely sensed something. He opened his eyes, stood up, and walked to the entrance. He opened the two doors that separated the space.
Outside the door, a slender woman was approaching. When she saw Liu Xunzhen, she smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, what a coincidence! Your opponent is out. Number 18, Lou Cheng! "
"Number 18, Lou Cheng …" Liu Xunzhen read the name silently. He found it strange, but his expression didn't change at all. He smiled politely and said, "Thank you. I have to check his information."
"Don't bother. I've collected it for you, including the highlights of his matches in the past few days." The slender woman said dutifully.
Many fighters had not fought in public for one or two months in order to prepare for the Youth Tournament. All the previous videos could only be used as a reference and couldn't be used to accurately judge the specific strength of the opponent. After all, people grow. Only by combining the battles in the past few days could one have a complete understanding of the opponent.
"Thank you." Liu Xunzhen said politely and sat in front of the computer. He took the USB flash drive from the woman and began to watch from the beginning.
As he watched, his expression gradually became serious. When he saw Lou Cheng's recent matches, he couldn't hide the seriousness on his face.
"Crushing …" He muttered to himself and made an evaluation.
Although he still couldn't rely on this kind of intense battle to figure out the other party's background, it was obvious that in just a short two months, he had made a jaw-dropping improvement!
Compared to the top geniuses like Peng Leyun and Ren Li, this kind of growth speed couldn't be inferior at all.
Fortunately, if the Youth Tournament was delayed one year later, the number one seed would have been replaced!
Liu Xunzhen had made a name for himself with his supernatural ability, but he didn't become arrogant because he had suffered losses before. He knew very well that supernatural ability users were indeed strong in many aspects, but they were also weak in many aspects. Unlike Dan stage fighters, supernatural ability users were the type that was most likely to fail miserably. Of course, if one's supernatural ability reached a higher level, it would be a different story.
…
In the stands, Lou Cheng's mother, Qi Fang, asked puzzledly,
"What does the number nine seed mean?"
Tao Xiaofei was a little worried and didn't have the mood to answer. Only Fatty Jiang was still cheerful and said, "Auntie, the seeded fighters are those who are most likely to win this tournament. The smaller the number, the stronger the strength, and the greater the hope."
He tried to explain in a way that was easy for middle-aged and old people to understand.
"So this Liu Xunzhen is the ninth strongest fighter in the Youth Tournament?" Qi Fang asked in surprise, thinking of the 18 heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties.
In the whole province, it was amazing to be in the top ten of all the fighters under the age of 26!
Jiang Fei thought for a while and said, "That's right …"
"Then, does Cheng have a high chance of winning?" Qi Fang asked worriedly with a simple comparison view, which was what Cao Lele and Qi Yunfei were thinking.
Isn't this match very dangerous?
Would he lose?
Feeling that he was the focus of attention, Jiang Fei twisted his body uncomfortably and coughed twice. "It's okay if he loses. This is a double-elimination system, which means he has to lose two rounds to be eliminated. Cheng still has a high chance of entering the top 32."
He couldn't possibly draw another seeded fighter in the next round, right?
"Well …" Qi Fang pulled Lou Zhisheng's sleeve and whispered, "You know how to surf the Internet, right? Let's see what Liu Xunzhen is like. "
"Okay." Lou Zhisheng had this idea a long time ago. Under the guidance of Qi Yunfei, he searched step by step. Qiu Hailin and Cao Lele also began to do the same.
However, the more they watched Liu Xunzhen's battle video, the more silent they became. The more they watched, the more frightened they became.
…
"Ahahahahaha, finally there's a broadcast this time!" Yan Xiaoling refreshed the list and excitedly posted, "It's against the ninth seeded fighter. Hohoho, it's against the ninth seeded fighter!"
"Unparalleled Dragon King" had sharp eyes. "You don't know what a seeded fighter is, right?"
"Haha, how would I know?" "Eternal Nightfall" Yan Xiaoling didn't hide it.
"Unparalleled Dragon King" briefly explained the meaning of a seeded fighter. In the end, he said, "If it's the eighth or tenth seeded fighter, I think Lou Cheng will win. After more than two months, with his speed of improvement, he should have touched the threshold of the Dan stage. Plus, he is more familiar with Tremor Punch and Ice Sect Force, and he has more experience. It's not impossible for him to beat a normal Eighth Pin fighter of the Dan stage. But this Liu Xunzhen's supernatural ability is very difficult to deal with. It's his first time encountering him."
"Uh …" Yan Xiaoling was silent for a moment before replying, "Anyway, I think my Lou Cheng will win! A woman's sixth sense! "
"I believe it too, I have it too!" "Brahman" popped up.
"Unparalleled Dragon King" said, "Why are you two little brats calling me a woman …"
"I'm an adult …" Yan Xiaoling followed suit.
"But little Nightfall, your picture and your voice betrayed you. You're just a primary school kid!" "Brahman" quickly changed the topic. It seemed that they wouldn't be able to go back until the competition started.
…
After watching the video, Lou Cheng had a rudimentary understanding of Liu Xunzhen's fighting style. He looked at the second arena.
The winner of the first round was clear and would soon be over. The broadcasting equipment had been set up for the second round.
"It's about to start …" Lou Cheng sent a message to Yan Zheke. Then he stood up and stretched his arms and legs.
The fighting style of a supernatural ability user was indeed different from that of a normal fighter. He couldn't rely on his experience to master it.
Yan Zheke quickly replied with a voice message,
"Cheng, Cheng, come on!"
Lou Cheng smiled and stretched his neck. He quickly typed, "How can I cheer for such a powerful opponent in such an ordinary way?"
"Then, how about singing?" Yan Zheke gritted her teeth and asked hesitantly.
"We've been together for so long, shouldn't we change the way we cheer for each other?" Lou Cheng teased the girl to ease his mood. "For example, darling …"
"No! Rogue! Cheeky! "Yan Zheke typed quickly. Her face was red with embarrassment and annoyance.
How embarrassing! It's so embarrassing! Cheng is such a jerk!
…
At this moment, a few rows above him, Zhang Zhutong stood leisurely with his hands in his pockets. Beside him was a beautiful female companion.
"Do you want to watch the next round?" His female companion asked, bored.
Zhang Zhutong laughed in a low voice. "Yes, Liu Xunzhen hasn't participated in any competition for almost three months. His previous opponents were not strong, so no one could see how much his supernatural ability has improved. His opponent this round is not weak, so it should be able to make him reveal something. Look, Han Zhifei, Qiu Lin, and the others are also here."
He leisurely waved to Han Zhifei and the others not far away, as if he were the owner of this place.
Han Zhifei ignored his gesture, touched the scar on his face, and asked Han Ying and Xiong Yu,
"Is this Lou Cheng?"
"Yes!" Han Ying nodded heavily.
…
"Okay, okay. Sing a song to cheer for me." After teasing Yan Zheke for a while, Lou Cheng still couldn't make her call him darling, but he was still in a good mood.
In order to not be upset or painful later and still have this kind of happiness, I can't take it lightly.
Then let's do our best!
He stepped forward and walked to the second arena. In less than two minutes, he heard the referee say,
"The second round, Liu Xunzhen versus Lou Cheng!"
Lou Cheng took out his phone and was about to hand it to the competition supervisor when he saw a message.
Ke's song? He unlocked the phone with a smile, put the phone to his ear, and clicked on the voice message.
"Kiss, kiss … Come on!" Yan Zheke's voice trembled with shyness and nervousness.
As soon as she sent the message, she buried her face in the pillow.
Cheng is such a bad guy!
Kiss … Are you a customer service officer on Taobao? Lou Cheng chuckled. His heart was filled with strength.
This is what I want to protect!
…
"Yayaya, Sir Lou is on the stage!" Wu Ting looked at the second arena and cheered.
Wei Renjie didn't hear what she was shouting, but now there were only four arenas left. He subconsciously looked over and easily found a familiar figure standing there.
Lou Cheng?
How many rounds has it been?
He hasn't been eliminated yet?
