One in white and one in red stood on the left and right of the referee, about twelve to thirteen meters apart. This was the first official battle between Peng Leyun and Ren Li, who had been known together for a long time, after more than a year. The last time they fought, one of them was a weak Sixth Pin, while the other was a top Seventh Pin. Now, both of them had reached the Inhuman stage and were worthy of the title of Heavenly Son of the Era.
Unfortunately, the audience didn't understand the hidden history and meaning behind this battle, so they couldn't create the best atmosphere.
Ren Li regulated her breathing and slightly trembled her muscles, secretly warming up her body. Her eyes reflected the young man opposite her who was no longer idle and was focused on his battle.
The referee looked around, raised his right hand, and shouted,
"Begin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ren Li take a step to the left and twist her body in the opposite direction. Her muscles, fascia, and strength bulged, and with a bang, a tornado visible to the naked eye appeared. It roared and swept toward Peng Leyun.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. The wind whimpered as if a demon was coming, especially disturbing the listener's mood.
Just as Peng Leyun's mind outlined the sacred and majestic Thunder God Statue to suppress his mind, he felt the heavy wind pressure on his face. Ren Li was approaching!
As an "old enemy" who knew her well, he didn't try to respond. He directly put his palms together and was about to release the Thunder from a Clear Sky.
At this moment, Ren Li seemed to have sensed something. Her "wind force" suddenly swelled, twisting her muscles and fascias, and suddenly swinging her center of gravity, making an incredible turn in the high-speed dash.
Bang!
There was an explosion at the original spot, as if an airplane was flying at low altitude, or a high-speed train was running at full speed from dozens of centimeters away. The strong wind made the referee subconsciously raise his hand to block in front of his face, and his body swayed back.
Ren Li's "Wind Steps" had reached an incredible level and reached the real Inhuman level. In a turn, the strong wind could push people away!
Peng Leyun's "Thunder from a Clear Sky" was drowned out by the loud noise. The thin Thunder Blade that he pulled out chopped at Ren Li's original path, hitting the ground and creating a scorch mark.
Having fought against each other so many times, they were no longer probing each other. Right from the start, they were all shaken to the core!
After completing the turn, Ren Li suddenly lowered her shoulders and flicked her wrist in the opposite direction, causing the force to surge into a high-speed spinning wind blade that shot towards Peng Leyun's throat. At the same time, she twisted her back and swung her waist, kicking seven times in a row. Every kick was either aimed at Peng Leyun's ankle joint or his knee. She had completed the 27th move of the Wind Sect.
Striking from the top and kicking from the bottom, "Cold Blade" and "Tornado"!
Peng Leyun seemed to have expected this. He suddenly raised his right arm in front of him, and his fist, which was wrapped in electric light, went from bottom to top and hit the bottom of the wind blade. With a sharp friction sound and a sudden high-pitched sizzling sound, the wind blade disintegrated and turned into a gust of wind.
Inside his body, there seemed to be a turbocharger that was spinning crazily. When he raised his arm to block the "knife", he seemed to be repelled by the wind pressure generated by Ren Li's Tornado Chain Kick. He was "pushed" hard and swung back just in time. He didn't straighten his back and didn't exert any strength.
Bam bam bam!
Ren Li's kick missed. Peng Leyun took a step forward, withdrew his qi and blood, and exploded his Dan force. He stretched his fascia, flexed his joints, and launched a "Machine Punch".
Bam bam bam bam bam bam! The sounds of the punches were endless, and the electric light came one after another. Ren Li didn't back down. She used "Tornado" again and kicked with explosive force. Her whole body seemed to be half floating, stirring up a scary strong wind.
Seeing the electric snakes flying around, the strong wind blowing, and the sound of the punches hitting their hearts like drums, Lou Cheng and Ann Chaoyang couldn't help but be amazed by the level of Peng Leyun and Ren Li when they gave it their all.
The "Big Devil" who was serious from the beginning was really scary. His attacks were smooth and his defense was natural. Ren Li, who was usually unreliable, didn't seem to be at a disadvantage at all. Her leg skills were amazing, and her sword skills were in her palms. They were evenly matched.
This level of intense battle was enlightening for the two of them. They watched without blinking, afraid that they would miss out on the key points.
Because of this, Lou Cheng only took pictures occasionally and posted them in the live thread. Everyone understood his condition, because everyone was like this. The heated discussion just now had become cold and quiet.
Phew, when my transformation is complete and I stabilize, will I be at Ren Li's level now? Lou Cheng thought as he watched.
It had been almost five days since his transformation. He had already overcome the difficulties in the early stage, and his progress was more than half complete. There were only seven or eight days left for him to slowly finish up. In terms of physical fitness, he could be considered a standard Inhuman Mighty One, but he still lacked the taste of precise control.
Hmm, maybe not as pure as Ren Li, but his actual combat level should be about there … Lou Cheng nodded slightly, comparing and judging himself.
Bam bam bam, bam bam bam!
Dust floated above the arena. The wind was strong, and lightning flashed continuously, illuminating the eyes of the spectators. Ren Li and Peng Leyun fought and retreated, sometimes competing with their body movements, and sometimes making turns. They fought from the center to the left, and then from the left to the other side. There was not a single intact brick left on the ground.
In these five or six minutes, they didn't use their simplified Physical Invulnerability moves, because if they didn't have a good opportunity and missed, they would easily fall into a passive state and be suppressed by their opponent.
After a tough battle, Ren Li finally relied on the advantage of her body movements to sneak to Peng Leyun's side, seizing an excellent opportunity.
In her mind, she naturally outlined a green hurricane that connected the nine heavens and the earth. Seawater, trees, and boulders were sucked into it and rushed to the sky.
This led to changes in her corresponding muscles, fascias, and organs, causing the layers of Wind Empress Force to twist and turn into a spiral.
Following which, various kinds of wind blew, replacing the hurricane and condensing into the image of a female god, suppressing the force that was about to go out of control.
Bam!
Ren Li bent her body forward and blocked with her left arm. She turned her waist and stretched her back, so that her right fist came out from below and turned into a Sky Cannon!
Peng Leyun took a deep breath and gathered his strength. His arm swelled, and he bent his elbow to strike. Electricity leaped out of his body.
Bam!
The sound was urgent. Ren Li's right arm reverberated. Her fist was sore and her muscles were numb. She couldn't help but take a step back. Peng Leyun felt that every part of his body was being torn apart. A strong wind rose from under his feet, spiraling and sweeping, making him fly up uncontrollably.
The tenth move of the Wind Sect, Nine Heavens Breath!
Simplified Physical Invulnerability!
Peng Leyun had just been sent flying when Ren Li stepped on the ground and made another loud sound. She took advantage of the place where her opponent was about to fall and was ready to wait for him to come out.
Facing this, Peng Leyun's thoughts turned quickly. He quickly visualized and finally fixed his eyes on the green jade amulet floating in the void.
Bzzt bzzt bzzt!
Lightning flashed on the jade amulet and turned into seal characters. The Force of Heaven Punishment in Peng Leyun's body gathered in his right palm.
Bam! He pressed down hurriedly and a silver lightning as thick as a thumb suddenly appeared in his palm and struck towards Ren Li.
This was another application of the Thunder Seal!
Peng Leyun couldn't use it unless he reached the inhuman level and his body had mutated.
Ren Li's scalp was numb. When her opponent pressed down hurriedly, she suddenly straightened her back and took a step back forcefully, triggering the strong wind.
Bam!
The lightning struck and brushed past Ren Li's body and hit the ground, spreading out small sparks in all directions.
Taking advantage of the arrival of the Divine Punishment, Peng Leyun had already landed halfway. When Ren Li regained her composure and came again, his feet had landed on solid ground.
He didn't use the Divine Punishment consecutively like how he dealt with Wahku because his opponent was different. Ren Li could throw wind blades and had many tricks up her sleeve, unlike Wahku who only knew how to fight head-on after turning into an Asura. Therefore, he felt that it was best not to take the risk unless it was absolutely necessary.
Ren Li knew that her chance was only for a moment. She didn't hold back anymore. The scene in her mind was already fixed on the Plague Sect deity with three heads and six arms and vertical eyes.
Bam!
She threw out a punch. Her joints suddenly stretched and her arms strangely grew a little longer.
It was this little bit that made Peng Leyun's dodging look like a mirage. He could only use the Force of Absorption and Explosion to block the attack with his fist.
Bam!
Ren Li was knocked back. Peng Leyun's body was suddenly empty. His chest was stuffy and he was short of breath. He almost lost his mind.
Knowing that Ren Li would follow up with the Hidden Scent, he suddenly used Force Concentration to dispel it. Then, he held his breath and launched a crazy attack.
Bam bam bam. Bam bam bam. Punches, kicks, elbows and knees. Every attack of Peng Leyun's was accompanied by a thick silvery-white electric light. In the eyes of Lou Cheng and the rest, it was like lightning strikes again and again.
The continuous Divine Punishment had changed to an explosion on flat ground. However, it was still terrifying!
For an Inhuman Mighty One, not breathing for a few minutes wasn't a problem. However, that was under the condition that they didn't do any strenuous exercise. Now, Peng Leyun had been holding his breath for a full two minutes and still showed no signs of stopping. Lou Cheng's eyelids twitched as he felt the difference between him and his opponent.
Ren Li activated the Hidden Scent and gritted her teeth to hold on. Her Wind Force was continuously shattered and her body was continuously electrocuted. However, she couldn't find a chance to open up a distance.
As time passed, the accumulated numbness in her body finally reached its limit. She couldn't even use Force Concentration. Her arm was knocked away by Peng Leyun's elbow. Taking advantage of the situation, he flicked his joints and threw a punch towards her throat.
Ren Li's body was numb and her movements were sluggish. She couldn't block in time and could only watch as the punch stopped before her vital organs.
Without hesitation, the referee raised his hand and announced,
"Peng Leyun wins!"
Ren Li heaved a sigh of relief. After a while, she did a Force Concentration to suppress part of the numbness. She then cupped her hands and turned around, walking towards the stone steps with the bouncing of her muscles.
After two steps, she suddenly paused. Peng Leyun was still standing there, motionless, as though he was waiting to be cheered.
Puzzled, Ren Li turned around and looked at that guy. She asked softly,
"Why aren't you moving?"
Peng Leyun smiled bitterly and said,
"I'll fall if I move …"
I couldn't hold my breath for the last dozen moves. Now that the Hidden Scent has completely taken effect …
Ren Li was stunned for a moment. The corners of her mouth suddenly curled up, and a hint of pride appeared in her eyes. She waved to the staff next to her, raised her chin, and said,
"You guys help him!"
With that, she walked down the arena with her head held high. Her mood improved inexplicably as she accepted the compliments from Lou Cheng and Ann Chaoyang.
In the fourth match, Gusai won easily and clinched the final spot in the top four.
The lot-drawing ceremony was held shortly after. The guest drew the first name.
"Gusai!"
Eh … Lou Cheng lifted his gaze from his phone and saw the guest take out the second round ball.
Let's hope the host pulls another dirty trick. I'm the weakest after Gusai. Pick me, pick me!
He'll only have a chance of entering the finals if he picks me!
The guest took a look at the round ball and showed it to the crowd.
"Peng Leyun!"
Ah … Lou Cheng was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, his opponent was confirmed.
Kaori Karasawa, the top seed Kaori Karasawa!
