Chapter 114 The Competition Ends
As the giant sword gradually materialized, the surrounding air seemed to ignite, staining the sword tip with a dazzling crimson.
Suddenly
A powerful gust of wind pressure erupted from the greatsword and spread rapidly outwards.
Like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples visible to the naked eye.
Wherever this force passed, the clouds were torn apart like fragile dandelions by the wind pressure.
The appearance of the giant sword shook the hearts of everyone on Luofu.
They involuntarily stopped and focused their gaze on the giant sword.
Even Yanqing, who was performing his special skill, subconsciously lowered the hand that was holding the long sword.
at the same time.
Lin Qiong, who was watching all of this, suddenly felt his phone start vibrating in his pocket.
He took out his phone and looked at it.
A chat group labeled "Starry Sky Train Family" was found to be receiving a constant stream of new messages.
When Lin Qiong opened the group chat, the first thing he saw was March 7's urgent inquiry.
March 7th: [Did you guys see that thing in the sky? Could it be Nanook attacking?!]
Himeko: [I saw it! It's a truly magnificent sight!]
Dan Heng: [No imaginary number reaction at the level of Star God or Commander has been detected so far. What's going on?]
March 7th: [Aren't you on Luofu Mountain?]
Danheng: [No, Mr. Walter and I are resting on the train.]
Star: [A giant sword has pierced a hole in the sky.]
Danheng: [What do you mean?]
March 7th: [I'll take a picture and send it to you.]
Then.
March 7th shared a clear photo.
The image depicts a giant sword extending from the clouds.
After the photos were posted on March 7th, the previously lively group chat immediately fell silent.
half an hour.
Walter Yang slowly typed a question mark in the group chat.
Walter: [?]
Walter: [Danheng, could you help me find my glasses? Some things in the photo are a little hard to see.]
Danheng: [Mr. Walter, it seems you've already put your glasses on.]
Walter: [...]
Walter: [Looks like I didn't sleep well last night, which is causing me to hallucinate. I'd better go back and get some sleep.]
Lin Qiong looked at the contents of the group chat and couldn't help but smile.
He sent a Pam shocked emoji in the group chat to liven things up, and then put his phone back in his pocket.
When Lin Qiong's attention was drawn away from his phone and returned to reality...
He discovered that the once bustling arena was now eerily quiet.
The faint sounds of people breathing were clearly audible, as if time had stopped at that moment.
Each of them stared blankly at the sky, their faces filled with solemn expressions.
Lin Qiong followed the gaze of the crowd.
The giant sword was rushing rapidly toward the arena.
"boom--"
The crimson sword tip tore through the air, falling rapidly like a burning meteor with unstoppable force.
Seeing this, the people below the ring froze in place, their eyes filled with terror.
As the target of this attack, Yanqing's face was ashen.
Sweat, like soybeans, rolled down his forehead and dripped onto the ring.
The immense pressure emanating from the sword's edge was like a mountain pressing down on him, rendering him unable to move.
Yanqing had never felt so close to death.
His eyes were fixed on the approaching sword tip, a look of unwillingness flashing in them.
At this critical moment.
The giant sword that fell from the sky suddenly transformed into countless golden specks of light and vanished in an instant.
This moment.
Yanqing felt the heavy pressure suddenly disappear, and her body involuntarily staggered forward, almost falling.
Yanqing's dilated pupils reflected the breathtaking scene that had just unfolded.
"Huff...huff..."
Having survived the ordeal, he was now panting heavily, his chest heaving violently, as if he had just escaped from the clutches of death.
The people below the arena also came to their senses and looked around in confusion.
"What happened? Was that just a hallucination?"
Someone in the crowd asked in a loud voice, with a hint of uncertainty in their tone.
Others chimed in, their eyes filled with shock and bewilderment.
"Yeah, how did the sword suddenly disappear?"
"I was so scared, I thought I was going to die."
"If that sword really comes down, it'll probably smash a hole in Luofu Mountain, won't it?"
Just as the people around began to discuss and speculate about why the giant sword that had fallen from the sky had suddenly disappeared.
Only Lin Qiong and Yan Qing noticed Li Sushang's subtle action.
original.
Just as the giant sword was about to strike Yanqing, she cut off the power supply that sustained her form.
And the greatsword, unable to sustain its existence due to the loss of energy, vanished without a trace before everyone's eyes.
At this time.
Li Sushang slowly approached Yan Qing, gently touching the back of her head with her left hand, while naturally reaching out her right hand towards him.
"Um... I'm sorry, this is my first time using this trick, and I didn't quite get the hang of it."
As she spoke, a hint of apology appeared on her face, and a touch of embarrassment showed in her eyes.
Yanqing looked at her, the turmoil in her heart gradually subsided, and her eyes revealed admiration.
He nodded in understanding and took Li Sushang's outstretched hand.
"No need to worry about it. On the contrary, this duel with Miss Sushang has benefited me greatly and I have gained a lot."
Yanqing's eyes gleamed with sincerity, as if he had discovered a treasure, and he continued, "I never expected that our Luofu Cloud Cavalry would have such a hidden master as Miss Sushang."
Yanqing's words revealed his affirmation of Li Sushang's abilities.
Judging from the attack she just unleashed.
If it could be used in the battle against the abundant monsters, it would certainly play a huge role.
"I will definitely report to the general later and ask him to come and meet Miss Su Chang."
Upon hearing this, Li Sushang's face showed a hint of worry.
"This... I've only been in Luofu for a few days, and suddenly I'm asked to meet the general? This might not be appropriate...?"
Although I do admire the legends in the history of the Cloud Cavalry and yearn to become a figure as renowned as them.
But when she learned that she would be able to meet one of the legendary figures in person, she felt a sense of unreality.
Upon hearing this, Yanqing smiled but remained silent.
In Li Sushang's slightly bewildered gaze.
Yanqing grabbed her hand, lifted her arm above her head, and then announced loudly, "Ladies and gentlemen,"
Let us give a warm round of applause to the winner of this competition—Miss Su Chang!
Yanqing's voice startled those who were still engrossed in their discussion.
They all snapped out of their daze and looked at the two people on the stage with puzzled expressions.
"Did the little girl win?"
"Is it over already?"
"What exactly was that giant sword from earlier?"
The group looked at each other, their faces filled with disbelief, clearly unaware of what had happened.
Just then.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
A burst of crisp applause rang out from the crowd, breaking the silence of the scene.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Lin Qiong clapping his hands lightly while exclaiming, "What a wonderful duel!"
Lin Qiong's move instantly attracted everyone's attention.
When Li Sushang's gaze fell on him, her eyes widened slightly, and a look of surprise flashed in them.
at the same time.
The man in the stands who was also the commentator and host also recovered from his shock.
He quickly announced loudly, "The winner of this competition is Li Sushang!"
As his voice faded, the bewildered audience members had no choice but to suppress their doubts and erupt in thunderous applause.
Although they haven't figured out the current situation yet, now that the victor has been chosen, they should give her the warmest applause.
