Battle Against Zhao Wuji

Qian Qiao took out a briefcase. Inside was a belt larger than those of the other Riders.

After putting it on, Qian Qiao took out his phone.

He pressed the three buttons.

5! 5! 5!

"Standby!"

Qian Qiao snapped the back cover of the phone shut and raised it one-handed.

"Henshin!"

The phone was firmly inserted into the belt.

"Complete!"

Photon Blood began flowing from the belt throughout his body.

In an instant, red light spread everywhere, drawing everyone's attention.

What finally appeared before them was an Armored Man clad in white, red, and black.

It was Kamen Rider Faiz—or rather, Kamen Rider 555!

Qian Qiao lightly shook his left hand, then shot forward in a single stride.

The battle on the field had only just begun.

Although Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu possessed exceptional speed, their constant harassment tactics had irritated Zhao Wuji. However, Zhao Wuji was not so easily thrown off.

After all, Zhao Wuji possessed Soul Power above level seventy. Even though he did not specialize in speed, his body had been strengthened by years upon years of accumulated Soul Power, making him far faster than ordinary people.

Moreover, the gap in Soul Power often represented a gap in strength. No matter how Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing maneuvered, evaded, and harassed Zhao Wuji—

Zhao Wuji only needed to give a light burst of Soul Power to nullify their attacks entirely.

Even attacks he could not evade were basically unable to break through his defenses, thanks to Zhao Wuji's formidable defensive power.

After all, a difference of more than forty levels of Soul Power was not something that could be made up so easily.

"Not bad!"

Zhao Wuji still gave Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing a thumbs-up. As a defense-type Soul Saint, he knew they could not break through his defenses, so his assessment of the two focused on their speed and positioning.

In both respects, their movements had displayed the strength expected of Soul Grandmasters. In Zhao Wuji's heart, the two had already passed.

Zhao Wuji then turned his gaze toward the others.

With a light use of Soul Power, far exceeding that of Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, Zhao Wuji sent both of them flying.

"Cry before my strength!"

Kintaros charged forward recklessly.

Zhao Wuji had a rather deep impression of him. After all, there were not many people with such a split personality.

Furthermore, Kintaros had arrived early, and Zhao Wuji had observed him in secret for some time.

Seeing Kintaros's charging fist, Zhao Wuji grinned and met it with his own fist.

Boom!

A shockwave burst from their fists. From afar, Tang San seemed to see the veins on both their arms bulging.

"Not bad!"

Zhao Wuji praised him. Zhao Wuji himself was a power-type fighter, yet Kintaros, despite being a Soul Elder, possessed strength that was already close to that of a Soul King.

Praise was praise, but Zhao Wuji would not go easy on him. After all, the battle had only just begun for Zhao Wuji.

"Ha!"

Zhao Wuji increased the force in his hand and simultaneously used Soul Power to strengthen his right arm.

Bang!

With a light push forward from Zhao Wuji, Kintaros—who had even left Dai Mubai helpless—was sent flying.

Whoosh! Bang!

The flying Kintaros smashed hard into the ground.

"I should've gone easier. Franky's definitely going to get mad again."

Looking at the battle damage, Zhao Wuji knew Franky would not let him off easily.

Thinking of his shriveled wallet, Zhao Wuji could only sigh helplessly.

"So strong!"

Kintaros forced himself to his feet and patted the dust from his hands.

It had also been a long time since Kintaros had encountered such a powerful opponent.

But Kintaros would not be afraid. He immediately strode forward and charged again.

"Blue Silver Grass First Soul Skill: Blue Silver Entanglement!"

"Blue Silver Grass Second Soul Skill: Blue Silver Parasitism!"

Once Third Brother made a move, it was obvious whether he had the goods.

The Blue Silver Entanglement earlier had been intended to restrict Zhao Wuji's movements, but Zhao Wuji merely lifted a foot and snapped all the Blue Silver Grass in half.

Tang San therefore used two Soul Skills in succession.

Although the two Soul Skills were slow to take effect, weak in damage, and had control effects nearly equivalent to none, they still successfully angered Zhao Wuji.

After all, such disgusting things were rare even among this group.

Though they had little effect on Zhao Wuji, there was simply too much Blue Silver Grass, and it was too disgusting.

"Vajra Bear First Soul Skill: Immovable Bright King Body!"

Zhao Wuji directly used his First Soul Skill. The Immovable Bright King Body could reflect Soul Skills and attacks within three meters.

Tang San's Soul Skills were directly nullified and even reflected back at him.

However, Tang San dodged the reflected Blue Silver Grass with his nimble footwork.

At this moment, Qian Qiao also joined the fight.

Compared with Kintaros, who was renowned for his strength, Qian Qiao's Faiz was based on a shark, but it inevitably had a somewhat frail quality to it.

So now was the time to test Qian Qiao's combat foundation.

Qian Qiao punched Zhao Wuji in the chest. Though it was not as powerful as Kintaros's punch, it still injured Zhao Wuji.

When Zhao Wuji followed up with an elbow strike, Qian Qiao twisted at the waist and dodged it. At the same time, he planted both hands on the ground, supported himself with his arms, and viciously kicked Zhao Wuji in the chin with both feet.

The chin was one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body. For a moment, Zhao Wuji felt pain as well.

However, Zhao Wuji endured the pain in his chin, gathering Soul Power into a fist larger than a sandbag before smashing it fiercely toward the ground where Qian Qiao stood.

Fortunately, Qian Qiao had been prepared. After supporting himself with his hands and kicking out, he used the recoil to flip backward several times, directly escaping Zhao Wuji's attack range.

Zhao Wuji's sandbag-sized fist struck the ground, creating a massive crater and kicking up a cloud of dust.

After dodging the attack, Qian Qiao assumed a stance with his left foot forward and right foot back, shoulder-width apart. His hands were half-clenched into fists, with his left fist lowered and his right fist slightly raised before his chest.

"Second Soul Skill: Gravity Enhancement!"

Zhao Wuji's third Soul Ring, the Thousand Year Soul Ring, appeared behind him.

This was the Third Soul Skill that most of those present did not possess.

Tang San felt his body grow heavier, as though his entire body were sinking downward.

The Third Soul Skill was a weakening—or rather, a restriction—created to deal with people Zhao Wuji could not reach, whether because of their speed or because their movement techniques surpassed his.

It was like a dog-headed champion with no mobility who could only rely on W to slow someone it could not catch.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Positioning Tracking!"

Zhao Wuji's fourth Soul Ring abruptly locked onto Qian Qiao at a speed that stunned everyone.

Looking at the Soul Ring around his body, Qian Qiao could not help but give a bitter smile.

Although the Soul Ring did not impose many restrictions on Qian Qiao, Zhao Wuji's first target was definitely going to be him.

Zhao Wuji's Fourth Soul Skill had a tracking effect and could also guide Zhao Wuji.

Zhao Wuji tensed his legs. His immense power caused spiderweb-like cracks to spread across the ground from beneath his feet.

Zhao Wuji crouched halfway down, then leaped. The immense force sent him soaring into the air.

Whoosh!

Like a cannonball, Zhao Wuji headed straight for Qian Qiao.

In midair, Zhao Wuji adjusted his direction. His sandbag-sized fist locked onto Qian Qiao as he prepared to unleash that fist technique descending from the heavens.

Damn, I found a manga I'd let build up for a while. I saw today that it had finished, so I decided to read it.

The manga was called 1,800 Days of the Salaryman and the Girl. If you haven't read it, don't.

At first, the male lead and the teacher were both pretty good, then they got NTR'd. The teacher was even cuckolded by some old divorced guy and got pregnant afterward. She even showed up again in the epilogue, as if they were afraid the audience would not be disgusted enough.

It was supposed to be a manga about raising a daughter, but the ending made the female president feel pretty awkward. At the very least, she could have been paired with the masked guy. Having the adopted daughter end up with the man who raised her after he already had a child was just ridiculous.
