Xu Jintang raised his hands, maintained his balance, and quickly retreated.
At this moment, the burly man who had been holding back finally revealed his true colors.
His lips, framed by a thick beard, curled slightly upwards as he swiftly raised his hand and lifted the meteor hammer. " Meteor Blazing Flames!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of crackling sounds rang out.
Sparks then flew into the air, accompanied by a pungent smell of gunpowder.
"It's actually a weapon or magical artifact with special effects. These kinds of artifacts are priceless and practically unavailable."
"No wonder he dared to challenge the second one; he must have something to rely on."
"I saw this kind of magical artifact once before at the Myriad Treasures Pavilion auction, and it ended up selling for over eight million."
The surrounding chatter reached Xu Jintang's ears.
She frowned slightly, staring at the flame cracks that were spreading across the other side.
She had heard of such magical artifacts with special effects; not only were they expensive, but their attack damage was also two to three times higher than that of ordinary magical artifacts.
While he was pondering, the flame cracks had already rushed towards Xu Jintang.
The sweltering heat brought a strong sense of dryness.
Flames shot skyward, transforming into a fierce tongue of fire that attacked.
Two attacks came at the same time, and Xu Jintang had no time to dodge.
She pursed her lips and decisively raised her hands to shield herself. The Power of Dragon Blood within her instantly ignited and boiled, and the powerful energy rapidly spread throughout her body, forming a thin energy shield on her exterior.
As the flames scorched towards them, the energy shield instantly solidified, becoming like transparent glass, firmly blocking the fire wave.
At the same time, the incoming airflow was also blocked outside.
Xu Jintang gritted his teeth and continued to unleash the Power of Dragon Blood upon the opponent.
In just a few seconds, it was evenly matched with the two attacks from the opposite side.
The burly man was stunned for a moment.
This woman was actually able to block his fire attack with her bare body?
Taking advantage of his momentary lapse in attention, Xu Jintang raised his hand, clenched his fist, and punched out, forcefully breaking through the flames. Then, he quickly bent down and rushed towards the other side, his speed so fast that he left a blur.
By the time the burly man realized what was happening, Xu Jintang had already rushed in front of him.
She raised her leg high, bent it slightly, and slammed her knee directly into the burly man's abdomen.
"Hiss..."
The overwhelming leg strength caused the burly man to feel pain.
Xu Jintang gave him no chance to escape, rushing forward to grab his neck. The ruby-embroidered dart in her right sleeve was pressed against the burly man's throat, and she said coldly, "You lost."
The battle lasted less than five minutes from start to finish.
The burly man felt a chill on his neck and a wave of fear washed over him.
If Xu Jintang hadn't stopped in time, that hidden arrow might have already pierced his throat.
"I surrender, I surrender," the burly man quickly raised his hands in surrender.
The onlookers snapped out of their daze and stared at Xu Jintang in astonishment.
"To be able to withstand the special attack of a magical artifact with one's bare body is just too monstrous."
No wonder he dared to stand up and defend his title.
"Those who can come to the Command Camp are indeed all hidden talents."
Xu Jintang's performance in this battle completely changed everyone's perception of her.
The other team leaders who hadn't paid much attention to her initially now had a more serious look in their eyes.
Fatty Fang pursed his lips, lost in thought.
"The next challenger can raise their hand." The team member in charge snapped out of his daze and continued the process.
Many people are still recovering from that battle.
No one responded immediately.
Xu Jintang flexed his wrists and looked around.
Seeing that no one had accepted the challenge, the team member in charge of hosting the event spoke up to defuse the situation, "Then let's take a ten-minute break, and then continue the challenge."
Xu Jintang didn't waste any time; he immediately sat cross-legged and began to recover his mental energy on the spot.
Outside the simulated battlefield, several Command Camp who were observing the battle were also somewhat surprised.
"This trainee soldier's combat effectiveness is surprisingly strong."
"I have absolutely no recollection of her."
Wang Yile explained, "She just arrived today; she came from Leikedasi, and her mental strength level is already at Fourth Tier."
Several people turned their gazes toward them. "You're only reporting for duty today? Wasn't the reporting time long ago?"
"Her mental strength level is at Fourth Tier?! To reach this level at this age, her talent can only be described as freakish."
"Let's take another look." Wang Yile didn't say anything more, his gaze remaining fixed on the live stream screen opposite.
Within a simulated battlefield.
Xu Jintang was surrounded by the crowd, his breathing was steady, and his mental energy had already started operating automatically.
The others stared at her with complicated expressions, probably hesitating whether or not to challenge her.
"The ten-minute break is over." The team member hosting the selection meeting stood up again. "Is there anyone who wants to challenge the champion? Just a reminder, if no one challenges this time, then the champion will be considered the successful defender."
The previously silent crowd finally reacted.
A few seconds later, a girl wearing a white training military uniform came out.
"I'll give it a try." She wore two braids, and when she smiled, she had shallow dimples on her face. Her voice was also very sweet.
Upon seeing the girl, Fatty Fang suddenly recalled some unpleasant memories from the past, and his lips twitched slightly.
Xu Jintang exhaled a breath of stale air and slowly finished his practice.
She stood up, looked up at the girl opposite her, and quickly prepared for battle.
Chapter 153
This girl's name is Fang Kexin, and she's quite a celebrity in the Command Camp.
However, she is known for her unique and unpredictable fighting style.
When the onlookers saw Fang Kexin, they all twitched their lips in unison, as if they were thinking of some terrifying scene.
"Continue the challenge!" the team member in charge of the proceedings ordered.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jintang clenched his fist and rushed towards the other side.
Fang Kexin reacted quickly, smiled slightly, and turned to the side to dodge.
"Bang bang--"
Xu Jintang's two punches both missed.
She frowned, stopped in her tracks, and turned to look at Fang Kexin had already fled to the other side.
They dodged pretty quickly.
Xu Jintang pursed his lips, turned around, and charged forward again, clenching his fist in Fang Kexin's direction, while simultaneously activating the ruby sleeve dart on his right arm.
The homing arrow shot straight at Fang Kexin.
She suddenly bent backward, her body contorting into an unimaginable arc.
As the arrow shot towards her body, Fang Kexin twisted her body, making a 360-degree turn with her body skimming ten centimeters off the ground.
All the hidden arrows pierced the ground.
Fang Kexin regained her footing, and suddenly two throwing knives appeared in her hands.
Without giving Xu Jintang a chance to react, she threw him directly at the other side.
The edge of the throwing knife was extremely sharp, reflecting a cold light.
Xu Jintang raised his hand and shot another hidden arrow.
With two sharp "clangs," the hidden dart and the throwing knife collided and bounced away from each other.
Fang Kexin's fighting style was much more agile than the previous burly man's, and Xu Jintang struggled against her for a long time without gaining much advantage.
The onlookers also began to discuss among themselves:
"This Fang Kexin is indeed extraordinary; her combat skills are incredibly refined."
"You don't understand, that's not even the scariest thing about her..."
"What? She has something even scarier?"
"... It's a long story, you'll see for yourself."
Upon hearing this, Fatty Fang shuddered and quickly lowered his head to clear his throat to cover his embarrassment.
Another fierce battle ensued.
Xu Jintang stopped moving, slightly out of breath, and confronted Fang Kexin.
"Sister, watch out, I'm about to unleash my ultimate move." Fang Kexin toyed with the braid hanging over her shoulder, a smile playing on her lips.
A look of seriousness flashed in Xu Jintang's eyes.
When Fang Kexin came up, many people around her gave her strange looks, clearly wary of her.
This ultimate move might actually be pretty overpowered.
As soon as she finished speaking, Fang Kexin's smile vanished instantly.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes, and then she swiftly threw out a throwing knife.
This time, even more knives were thrown, and they reached Xu Jintang in the blink of an eye.
She braced herself on the ground with one hand, performed a side somersault, and simultaneously swung the ruby-embroidered sleeve dart from her right arm.
Throwing knives and hidden arrows collided repeatedly, producing a crisp "clinking" sound.
But Fang Kexin didn't stop.
She kept raising her hand and throwing knives, each time smaller than the last, but the number of knives she threw increased.
Xu Jintang was able to hold her own at first, but later on, the number of throwing knives became so dense that she couldn't defend against them at all.
The number of hidden arrows in the ruby-embroidered sleeve dart is also starting to run out.
Several throwing knives grazed Xu Jintang's arm, nearly cutting it.
"How many hidden weapons is Fang Kexin carrying?"
"No wonder she's considered a monster; she looks like a cute girl, but she's actually a knife-wielding maniac."
"Yeah, he's covered in hidden weapons, it's terrifying."
"Tear--"
The sound of clothes being torn rang out.
Xu Jintang frowned slightly and covered the wound on his arm.
Fang Kexin would raise her hand, kick her leg, and even shoot out several throwing knives from the soles of her feet.
In less than a minute, hundreds of throwing knives were flung out of Fang Kexin's body.
Xu Jintang's lips twitched several times as he watched the flying knives attack like a swarm of bees.
No wonder everyone looked at Fang Kexin so strangely just now.
A whooshing sound enveloped us.
A dense barrage of throwing knives completely surrounded Xu Jintang, making her almost invisible.
Everyone around stared intently at the situation inside the flying knife formation.
Xu Jintang's expression gradually turned serious after realizing that they were surrounded.
