There was dead silence in the stands, and then there was an explosion.
"What kind of martial arts is that?!"
"I didn't see it clearly! She pointed her finger three times and Xiao Zhenyue knelt down?"
"Penetration a large shield and armor? This is outrageous!"
"Buddhism Secret Method, only Buddhism has such a method of ignoring defense."
"When did Xiao Yan become so strong? Didn't she play reluctantly in the previous games?"
Qin Tiexin was sitting in the rest area with a solemn expression.
Others don't know, but he can see clearly. Xiao Yan knows both of the two martial arts skills he used just now.
The method that made Xiao Zhenyue freeze on the spot was Brahma Sound Valley's top-notch Nascent Soul Realm martial arts, Brahma Sea Chan Stillness. It can dissipate the fighting spirit and hostility, and the person who is attacked can no longer have the slightest intention to fight. It is like falling into the deep sea or entering Zen.
Those few fingering techniques are another Brahma Sound Valley top Golden Core Realm martial arts, Thousand Epiphyllum Delusion-Breaking Finger. Penetration extremely powerful, specializing in sealing meridians and acupuncture points, directly hitting the vital points of the human body.
He is very familiar with these two martial arts.
In the ruins of Pure Land Chan Temple, Xiao Wan had used these two martial arts, which caused a lot of trouble for him who was disguised as Liu Qing.
Brahma Sea Chan Stillness made him almost put down the knife, and Thousand Epiphyllum Delusion-Breaking Finger sealed his spiritual power so hard that he could not move. He remembered the feeling clearly.
Xiao Wan is Buddha Maiden. It's not unusual to know these things, but why can Xiao Yan also do this?
There are only two possibilities.
First, Xiao Yan's talent in Buddhist martial arts is no less than that of Xiao Wan. He has studied these martial arts very deeply in the past few years and has gained the respect of Brahma Sound Valley.
Second, she is not Xiao Yan, she is Xiao Wan.
Qin Tiexin basically concludes that it is the second type.
He has seen the strength of Xiao Yan, Foundation Establishment Late Stage, the palm skills are acceptable, but it is absolutely impossible to hide it so deeply.
Thousand Epiphyllum Delusion-Breaking Finger, Brahma Sea Chan Stillness, any of them are enough for her to easily win in the first few rounds. She won all the way with difficulty, there is only one explanation, those difficulties are just fake.
She can only be Xiao Wan.
This also explains why Xiao Yan was able to reach the semi-finals all the way.
If it's Xiao Wan, everything makes sense. Buddha Maiden, who is False Core Realm, won the quarterfinals with no difficulty. It's just that no one in front of her could force her to expose herself.
At this moment, "Xiao Yan", who had already stepped down, suddenly turned his head and glanced in Qin Tiexin's direction.
There was a deep searching look in her eyes, as if she was confirming something. Her eyes were clear and sharp, passing through most of the rest area, and fell on him, as if she was identifying him, but also as if she was testing him.
Qin Tiexin felt anxious, lowered his head hurriedly, pretending to be nervously preparing for the next game, put his fingers on his knees, tapping them one by one, and his eyes fell on the toes of his shoes.
But that gaze was like a needle, piercing him across most of the rest area. Even with his head lowered, he could feel the weight of that gaze, which carried some inexplicable meaning.
She came to Star Selection for what?
Is it a reward from the palace, or... him?
After the third game, the discussion in the stands lasted for a while before it gradually subsided.
There is no need to look at the opponents in the fourth game, there are only two players left who did not play.
Mingjue, Chen Du.
Although this scene may not seem as eye-catching as the Gu Ting scene, it still intrigues many people.
Instead of watching the head-to-head battle between Mingjue and Xiao Zhenyue, watching the speed and power showdown between Mingjue and Chen Du fills the gap.
There were already people arguing in the audience.
"I have been optimistic about Mingjue since a few games ago, betting that he will enter the semi-finals."
"I'm still optimistic about Chen Du. What else does Mingjue have besides being stronger? When it comes to Chen Du's speed, he's a living target."
"Chen Du has such a fast sword, who has been close to him in the past few rounds? Mingjue can't even touch the corners of his clothes."
"Mingjue has a strong body and thick skin. Chen Du's sword may not be able to penetrate it."
Lin Chuan, Liu Suifeng, Du Heng, and Xu Ying are all sitting in the stands, crowded together with Ming'an. Du Heng had the loudest voice, waving his fist and shouting, "Senior Brother Ming, come on!" Xu Ying pulled him and asked him to keep his voice down, but he stretched his neck and looked towards the ring.
Qin Tiexin Get up.
He did not take the Zen staff, but left the three-ring Zen staff on his seat. He only brought the Star Scar short knife, which was fastened to his waist.
He walked onto the ring with his bare hands and raised his hand to Chen Du on the opposite side.
Chen Du looked calm. The dagger was unsheathed, and the blade was faintly blue, glowing with a cold light under the sun.
He nodded towards Qin Tiexin as a return gift, but his eyes never left.
The butler jumped off the ring.
The moment the battle started, Chen Du disappeared.
Qin Tiexin and Killing Intent Perception are instantly full.
The person is on the left, slightly behind.
He turned sideways and punched out with his left fist. The wind of the fist exploded, and the air was punched with a muffled sound. Chen Du's figure flashed on the edge of the wind of fist, and the dagger brushed across the fist surface, bringing up a string of sparks.
Qin Tiexin's fist was numb, and he lowered his head and glanced. There was a very fine white mark on the skin, and a very faint blue light flashed at the wound.
Poison.
Chen Du's sword blade is quenched with poison, which is extremely toxic and can cause poison when it enters the blood.
A cold breath seeped into the meridians along the wound, and Qin Tiexin's left arm began to feel numb.
Fire of Life moved.
The Fire of Life in the ventricle jumped suddenly, and the pink bird mark remaining on the Red Luan Heart Flame on the chest became slightly warm.
As soon as the cold toxin penetrated into the meridians, it was pulled by an invisible suction force and rushed toward the ventricle. Fire of Life With a roll, the toxin was wrapped, swallowed, and purified. In a few breaths, the toxin was absorbed, and the numbness in his left arm subsided, leaving only a vague coolness.
Qin Tiexin had a calm expression on his face, and deliberately let his left arm sway, pretending that his movements were sluggish after being poisoned.
Chen Du really took the bait.
His figure flashed again, and the dagger went directly into the gap between Qin Tiexin's right ribs. The sword's light was faintly blue, and it was so fast that it only left a light blue line in the air.
This is what Qin Tiexin is waiting for.
He turned his left hand and the Star Scar dagger was unsheathed.
Inch Step·Blood Vortex Thrust.
Five-Direction Inch Steps stepped away, his body suddenly dwarfed, and passed under Chen Du's sword edge. With a flash of light, Chen Du's dagger was swept away. Qin Tiexin followed with his left palm, and Prajna Palm's golden palm print hit Chen Du's chest.
Chen Du flew backwards, turned half a circle in the air, and knelt down on one knee when he landed, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
His expression darkened.
He took out a dark gray pill from his waist with his left hand and crushed it. The gray mist spread, with a pungent fishy sweetness, enveloping Chen Du's entire body.
Qin Tiexin smelled that smell and felt slightly dizzy.
He immediately held his breath and urged Qi and Blood. Fire of Life to beat again to swallow the toxins that had seeped in.
Chen Du took advantage of this gap to close the distance again, the dagger drew blue arcs in front of him, and his figure became erratic again.
The two fought on the stage for dozens of rounds.
Chen Du is extremely fast, Movement Method is weird, and the dagger spits out messages like a poisonous snake. It specializes in targeting blind spots in Qin Tiexin's vision and gaps in defense.
His poison blade and poisonous mist caused a lot of trouble for Qin Tiexin. Although it was purified by Fire of Life, there would be a moment of lag every time he inhaled the poisonous mist or was scratched by the sword blade.
Chen Du relied on this moment to avoid Qin Tiexin three close blows in a row.
