Even though World of Martial Arts had not been running for a long time, it was common knowledge that female players were not as good as male players in terms of their innate attributes, aside from their Comprehension and Body Movements!
Meanwhile, Emei Sect's martial arts were created specifically for women. Their martial arts targeted the weaknesses of women, and they paid attention to disarming and guiding. Hence, when it came to martial arts that relied on Arm Strength and Affinity to win, they relied on unique qi cultivation techniques and methods to gain a firm foothold among the seven great system-allocated sects, and they were only second to Shaolin Temple and Wudang Sect.
Chaotic Cloak Sword might be Emei Sect's basic martial art, but once any martial art reached Grandmaster Realm, they would experience a complete transformation. Besides, based on Glutinous Rice's demeanor and how she advanced and retreated, Happy could sense her fighting spirit. Her mind had completely fused with her sword will, and it had risen to another level.
Happy was not the only one. The others also noticed the change in Glutinous Rice.
The person who felt it the most was Orochimaru. He stood in front of Glutinous Rice, and he felt incredibly uncomfortable. His previous opponent, One Circle, was the most difficult and difficult opponent he had faced since he joined the martial arts tournament. Every single time he attacked, he had to use his full strength before he could deal even the slightest bit of damage to One Circle, but Glutinous Rice was completely different.
When he fought against Glutinous Rice, even though he had an endless amount of strength, he could not bring it out. He would either be sent into the air by her sword shadows, or his offense would gradually be dissolved by the overlapping sword waves. In fact, he could not even shake off her attacks. It was as if his weapon was bound by a soft cloak, and he did not know where to put his strength. His subsequent attacks would also be affected by her sword will! That feeling was even worse than when he fought against One Circle!
"Damned girl!"
Orochimaru finally saw the problem after his several consecutive attacks were nullified! As he gritted his teeth and cursed, he jumped out and freed himself from the overlapping sword shadows surrounding Glutinous Rice.
"…"
When he saw this, he knew that the situation was bad.
With Orochimaru's intelligence, it was impossible for him not to notice that Chaotic Cloak Sword Technique was a sword technique that focused heavily on defense and not offense. Once he understood that there was something off about it, he could target it, and Glutinous Rice would be in a bad situation.
What a pity!
In the next second, Orochimaru used reality to prove that Glutinous Rice had indeed only gained a temporary advantage. He held the mother-child swords in a reverse grip, and the momentum of the swords changed. They crashed into the sword shadows around Glutinous Rice like fangs.
When Glutinous Rice saw Happy rush at her again, she calmly continued to use her cloak to defend herself. As long as Happy Rice attacked, he would definitely be lured away. While she advanced and retreated, she used her footwork and sword will to neutralize the attack.
Orochimaru was only so-so …
The fighting spirit in Glutinous Rice's heart burned even higher.
What a pity!
When Orochimaru truly rushed into the sword shadows, he suddenly stopped moving forward. He hugged his swords and used them to defend himself. He hid his mother sword behind his back.
It was also a defensive stance.
Glutinous Rice's expression changed. Based on her opponent's brief defense, she could sense that the effect of her sword will on her opponent was becoming smaller. Instead, her mother sword, which had been accumulating power while waiting to attack, was continuously accumulating energy. It was like a venomous snake lurking in the dark, ready to launch its fiercest attack at any moment.
"…"
Orochimaru used calmness to counter calmness, and he successfully broke Glutinous Rice's defense. Happy felt that it was a pity, but a powerful fighting spirit rose in his heart.
South China Martial Arts Ranking Board finally had a powerful opponent who could pique his interest and use his full strength to fight against him in the martial arts tournament this time. It could be said that his trip was not in vain.
While he was thinking, the winner and loser were instantly decided in the arena.
With her mind in a daze, Glutinous Rice was forced to retreat. The openings in her sword techniques increased, and in the end, she was heavily injured by Orochimaru, who had been accumulating strength for a long time. The twin swords brought with them a terrifying, bloody light when they struck Glutinous Rice's shoulder, and she pounced on him like a cheetah!
This was the prelude for Orochimaru to torture and kill his opponent when he lost the ability to counterattack.
However …
Just when Orochimaru revealed his ferocious fangs and was prepared to torture and kill his opponent to satisfy the evil in the depths of his heart, a presence that only martial artists could sense came charging at him from not too far away. An inexplicable sense of danger caused him to come to an abrupt halt the moment he pounced on Glutinous Rice. He then moved to the side.
When he looked at the source of the warning in surprise and bewilderment, he frowned. He saw the masked swordsman in blue robes, who he had paid attention to before, standing quietly at the foot of the stage. His gaze was as cold as ice! He stared at Happy with endless killing intent. There was a small and exquisite throwing knife between his fingers, and in an instant, it disappeared from his hand.
When the other four people on the stage noticed Orochimaru's action of restraining his crazed killing intent, they also noticed it. Surprise and relief appeared on their faces.
'Thank goodness …'
If Orochimaru used a bloody method again and tortured and killed Glutinous Rice, they might really have to dig three feet into the ground to find this crazy senior who had left the university!
The system made an announcement in time.
"The champion of Group B, Orochimaru!
"The champion of Group A, Happy!
"The others will fight for the top ten places in South China Martial Arts Ranking Board. Happy, Orochimaru, prepare to enter the final battle and fight for the title of the strongest in South China Martial Arts Ranking Board. You will also obtain the right to be recommended for the martial arts tournament!"
The solemn and loud system announcement did not seem to be able to stir up Orochimaru's emotions. His gaze was like that of a venomous snake as he stared at the masked swordsman at the foot of the stage, who had regained his composure. He stuck out his tongue, and right before everyone's eyes, he licked his blood-stained twin sword in a disgusting manner.
Others might not feel it!
But Happy, who knew Orochimaru's personality and strength very well, could sense that Orochimaru wanted to kill him based on his provocative and disdainful actions.
'My path in the world of martial artists in the future might not be too dull and smooth.'
Happy knew that the killing intent and presence he released just now had alerted Orochimaru. At that moment, he should have been remembered by Orochimaru and listed as his number one enemy.
If he allowed Orochimaru to develop as he pleased, there might come a day when he would be set up for some inexplicable reason, and what happened at the foot of Shaoshi Mountain in his previous life might happen again!
When he thought of this, Happy looked up at the stage and stared into Orochimaru's eyes without hiding the killing intent in his heart.
One of them was evil, brutal, wild, and untamed!
The other had a profound domain, and his fighting spirit burned!
The two of them stared at each other for a few seconds with the height of the stage between them. There was no one else in their eyes. Electricity intersected with each other, and the temperature in the air seemed to have risen by leaps and bounds!
…
When Glutinous Rice returned to the spectator seat, she was still fearful of Orochimaru's cunning sword technique that could destroy everything in its path. When she remembered the terrifying scene where her life was hanging by a thread and Orochimaru's savage face under his great strength, her heart raced.
She knew.
If Happy had not interfered in time, Orochimaru's shadow would have definitely followed her for the rest of her life.
This person who had inadvertently saved her once was actually her enemy who had caused her to taste the humiliation of losing for the first time. He was also the one who had courageously come to understand an even higher sword will in Chaotic Cloak Sword Technique.
For a period of time, she felt as if all sorts of emotions had been overturned in her heart. She could not describe what she was feeling, and she did not know how she should face him in the future.
Gratitude?
Anger?
But there was one thing she was certain of.
She could not let Orochimaru snatch the University of South China's championship!
In the next moment, Happy and Orochimaru's figures vanished from the stage and reappeared on a huge stage thirty-two feet away.
