In the middle of the arena, there was a flagpole fluttering in the wind. The word 'South' was written on the brocade at the top of the flagpole.
System Notification:
The final battle!
In order to display the overall quality of the recommenders, the rules of the competition were different from ordinary martial arts competitions. Instead, the winner would be the one who obtained the banner. As long as one of them could stay within two meters of the banner for more than a minute, they would be the winner. If the opponent invaded the banner during this time, time would return to zero, and the countdown would start from the moment one of them was forced out of the banner.
During this period …
If either side admitted defeat, died, or was forced off the stage, they would be considered to have lost. The person who remained on the stage would automatically win the final battle and obtain the top spot in the Power Ranking Board of the University of South China, as well as the right to be recommended.
As soon as he finished speaking, the battles in the other two arenas came to an end!
All eyes were focused on the two people who slowly appeared on the third arena.
Happy was dressed in blue robes and had a strip of cloth over his face. His expression was calm, and he was not affected by the new rules announced by the system. His gaze was calm as he stared straight ahead.
It was Orochimaru, dressed in black and holding a short sword, with a cold look in his eyes!
"If you admit defeat, you won't have to suffer."
Orochimaru's body returned to normal, and he looked away. He spun the mother-child swords in his palm in an incredibly flashy manner before he clenched his fists tightly. He looked up slightly and cast Happy a scornful glance.
As he spoke, his inner force surged!
Boom!
His momentum increased swiftly, and he reached Gate Realm. His momentum did not slow down, and the aura spreading out from his body continued rising and swelling. His feet sank, and a pair of footprints were left on the stage!
A mighty presence that was so powerful that it could suffocate people pressed down on Happy from all directions.
Hiss!
The powerful aura was like a muffled thunder, striking at everyone present. The people on the other two arenas widened their eyes! All of them had shocked expressions on their faces.
"Blessed Realm!" "Oh no! This fellow had actually concealed his strength! His inner strength is one realm higher than ours! "
Tea Words, Puffy, and the others' faces were filled with disbelief and fear. They sucked in sharp breaths.
There were less than one thousand players who had reached Blessed Realm in World of Martial Arts, and all of them had their own different rumors and stories about them. He did not expect that the University of South China would also have such a person who defied the laws of nature. What was even more frightening was … He was also an anomaly that only brought harm to the University of South China.
Everyone's confidence in Happy winning the championship began to plummet.
Under the pressure from Orochimaru's aura, Happy, who did not activate his qi realm, stood on the stage like a candle flame that could be extinguished at any moment in a violent gust of wind. He swayed uneasily and was about to be destroyed by Orochimaru's might at any moment.
Happy did not answer Orochimaru's question. He brought out a medicinal tablet from his Universe Bag and stuffed it into his mouth before he chewed it quietly. His expression was so calm that it was as if he was eating noodles in a restaurant and did not forget to blow on them to cool them down. He completely ignored the danger he was in and the imposing manner Orochimaru had created.
"…"
A complex look appeared in Orochimaru's eyes.
In truth, Happy gave off a very weak feeling on the surface. It was as if with just one move, he would be able to crush his opponent to death on the arena with ease.
But for some reason, when he saw Happy's nonchalant expression and reaction and how he did not even activate his qi realm, he became a little hesitant and puzzled.
Happy's abilities …
Others might not be able to tell, but how could he not?
It was a fist technique at Grandmaster Realm, and it seemed to have surpassed the fist will that all the players could execute at the moment. It was bold and unconstrained, and it did not lose to a sword technique at Grandmaster Realm. It was straightforward, bizarre, agile, and had astonishing damage. What shocked him the most was the presence that Happy occasionally exuded while he was outside the stage. The presence from the knife made him feel as if he was lingering at the gates of hell.
"Come."
Happy naturally understood that with Orochimaru's experience and cunning in his previous life, it was impossible for him to truly underestimate him. Orochimaru's act of revealing his full strength was just to lure Happy out and force him to reveal more information and strength.
This was a good move.
If a normal player suddenly discovered that Orochimaru's qi realm was one whole qi realm higher than what they expected during the final battle, they would definitely panic, and their confidence would plummet.
Unfortunately …
At the moment Happy recognized Reverse Dual Rites Sword Technique, he had already learned about it. Hence, even if Orochimaru had suddenly increased his qi realm by two qi realms, he did not show any signs of shock.
His calm reaction made Orochimaru uneasy!
But …
Once he activated his qi realm, his qi filled his entire body and was slowly drained away. Even though Orochimaru was puzzled and shocked, he had to attack Happy. If this dragged on, he would be the one who suffered.
"Good lad, you've got guts, but I wonder if you have any real skills … Let me, your senior, have a good look at you!" Once he calmed down, Orochimaru laughed fiercely. He drew a circle in the air with the two swords in his hands, and like two black venomous snakes, they attacked Happy from the left and right.
The distance between them was less than sixty-five feet, but he instantly closed the distance between them!
Happy did not move.
He simply allowed Orochimaru's violent momentum and venomous snake-like attacks to close in on him. His expression was indifferent, as if he did not sense them at all.
“！”
Orochimaru frowned even harder. He changed his attack midway. The swords spun in the air at the moment they were about to touch his body, and he tightened his grip around them. The two venomous snakes turned into two black dragons that showed off their might. They opened their mouths wide, and with a monstrous momentum, they went to devour Happy. The situation instantly became one hundred times more dangerous, and it caught Happy off guard.
However …
Happy seemed to have long since expected that Orochimaru would do this. At the moment Orochimaru changed his attack, he shot up like a bird, spun around, and landed behind Orochimaru in a nimble manner.
Orochimaru's movements froze, and he turned around with a look of disbelief on his face. He stared at Happy.
"A lightness skill at Grandmaster Realm?"
It was not as if Orochimaru had never seen a lightness skill at Grandmaster Realm before, so he knew clearly that if he had used a normal lightness skill to move, he would definitely not have been able to shake off the attack radius of Reverse Dual Swordplay. Only those who had reached the pinnacle of speed could jump out of the stage at the instant the attack was about to touch them and use the momentum to return to the stage.
"…"
The people on the other two stages were dumbfounded.
Orochimaru's attack had exceeded everyone's expectations. The momentum of someone in Blessed Realm, the sudden change in Dual Swordplay, and the endless changes in his killing move. It was incredibly dangerous, and none of them would have been able to dodge it.
However …
But Happy dodged it with light movements.
He flicked off a speck of dust at the corner of his robes and raised his face, which was covered by a cloth. He opened his eyes, and they were still as calm as ever.
Orochimaru's expression had already been replaced by solemnity and focus.
"Take another attack from me!"
His voice was low and cold. This was the first time he treated Orochimaru seriously since he joined the martial arts tournament. He intended to fight with his full strength!
No one knew whether Happy was mocking Orochimaru or something else, but he used his lightness skill to avoid Orochimaru's strange and unfathomable Dual Swordplay Reversal. He flipped in the air and swiftly landed on the flagpole. Then, he turned around and flapped his robes. His landing was ingenious, and his movements were elegant. He was incredibly relaxed and at ease. All the men and women on the stage cheered in secret.
Even Orochimaru, who had always believed in himself and his strength, was shocked by Happy's ingenious lightness skill. He sucked in a light breath.
If he took the initiative to attack someone who had such a lightness skill, he would have no hope of winning.
If that was the case, he could only …
Just when Orochimaru swept his gaze over the flagpole at the center of the stage, he suddenly heard Happy say something that caused his heart to tremble.
"Thank goodness your Reverse Dual Swordplay has only reached the seventh realm. If you had reached a higher realm, I wouldn't have had such an easy time. Very well, now, it's my turn to attack." He did not give Orochimaru the chance to speak. His hands quickly fell to his waist, and at the same time he touched his lancet knives, his gaze focused, and the cold glare in his eyes was aggressive!
Boom!
A visible aura gushed out from Happy's body while he stood on the flagpole.
Gate Realm activated!
