Chapter 58: Speed Pass, Determine Qualification
Chapter 58: Speed Pass, Determine Qualification
In the virtual fighting arena, Lin Ye’s figure had just solidified when a red lightning suddenly struck!
"So fast!" Lin Ye was shocked and his body reacted subconsciously, barely avoiding the swift attack.
Looking closely, he saw a figure wearing red armor and holding a sharp blade standing in front of him. It was the Kamen Rider Kabuto, who was famous for his super-high-speed combat!
"Clock Up!"
Jiadou didn't pause at all and started moving at super high speed again, leaving a trail of afterimages around Lin Ye, which was dazzling and difficult to capture his true form.
"Interesting." Lin Ye looked at the red afterimage that kept flashing in front of him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
He knew that with his current physical reaction speed, he could not keep up with Kabuto's Clock Up, but that didn't mean he would be helpless.
Because he has the power to predict the future!
Although the predictive effect of Zi-O's basic level is far inferior to that of Zi-O's second level, it can completely lock in a future that is bound to happen.
But it is more than enough to predict the landing point of a high-speed moving target.
"I see!" Lin Ye's eyes were as sharp as torches, catching a tiny energy fluctuation, which was a sign that Jia Dou was about to launch an attack!
"It's now!"
Lin Ye did not hesitate at all. The Time Limit Sword in his hand turned into a silver-white lightning and slashed in the predicted direction.
"clang!"
A crisp sound of metal collision was heard, and Jia Dou's figure appeared at the position predicted by Lin Ye. The blade in his hand just blocked the attack of the Time Limit Sword.
"What?!" There was a flash of surprise in Jiadou's eyes. He obviously didn't expect that Lin Ye could predict the trajectory of his attack.
"You are indeed very fast, but it is not good enough in front of me!" Lin Ye snorted coldly, and swung the Time Limit Sword in his hand again, and the attack rushed towards Jiadou like a storm.
He knew that facing Jia Dou who had the ability to move at super high speed, he had to fight quickly and not give him a chance to breathe!
Although Lin Ye's attacks seemed to be random, each one was deadly. Every time he swung his sword, he accurately predicted Jia Dou's next move, forcing him to defend himself.
"Damn it!" Jiadou's heart was burning with anger, but he could do nothing about it.
Lin Ye's predictive ability made it impossible for him to hide. Every attack he made was resolved in advance by the opponent, as if all his actions were under the control of the opponent.
"3, 2, 1! Rider Kick!"
After a long period of unsuccessful attack, Jiadou finally found an opportunity. He jumped high, and his right leg, wrapped in red energy, turned into a red meteor, and kicked towards Lin Ye fiercely.
"It's over!" A gleam of light flashed in Lin Ye's eyes, and the Time Limit Sword in his hand was swung violently.
"Crack!"
With a crisp sound, the knight's kick that Jiadou was proud of had no time to hit Lin Ye, and the sharp horns on his head were cut off by Lin Ye's sword!
"Impossible!" Jiadou looked at the scene in disbelief, his body turned into starlight and disappeared in the virtual fighting arena.
"Huh, it's finally over." Lin Ye breathed a long sigh of relief, and the Time Limit Sword in his hand slowly dissipated.
He raised his head and looked at the virtual interface, which showed his wins: 100!
This is the result of his hard work this week.
In order to qualify for the Yunzhou Knight Competition, he devoted almost all his time to virtual battles. Except for eating and sleeping, he was almost always fighting life-and-death battles with various opponents.
This week, he encountered many strong opponents and experienced many difficult battles. It must be said that the guys he met in the qualifying round were much stronger than those he encountered in the previous performances.
But in the end, he achieved final victory with his own strength and wisdom.
"Congratulations on qualifying for the Yunzhou Knight Competition. Please fill in your personal information."
The system prompt sounded, pulling Lin Ye back from his thoughts.
"Finally." Lin Ye showed a relieved smile on his face, stretched, and clicked the information filling button.
The first floor of the Academic Affairs Office, which used to be as deserted as a stagnant pool of water, was now surrounded by a group of students, and the air was filled with a restless atmosphere.
"Have you heard? The list of schools selected for this year's Yunzhou Knight Competition will be announced today!"
"Hey, I can't wait to see those seniors show off their skills! I wonder who will qualify this year?" "As for the sophomores, I heard that Li Yunxiao who uses Balkan is very good, and Su Qingxue who uses Magic Jade is definitely a master!"
"Shh—keep your voice down! Look, Teacher Zhang from the Academic Affairs Office is coming down!"
There was a commotion among the crowd, and everyone's eyes were directed towards the stairs.
I saw a slightly plump middle-aged man holding a huge red list in his hand, walking down surrounded by several student union members.
"Here it comes! It's finally here!" The students were so excited that their faces turned red and they wanted to stretch their necks to see the names on the list.
Teacher Zhang walked to the bulletin board with a smile, motioned for the student union members to post the list, cleared his throat, and said, "Ahem, students, be quiet! This year, the number of students from our school selected for the Yunzhou Knight Competition has reached a record high, a total of - forty-five people!"
"Fuck! Forty-five people? Why are there so many people this year?" Exclamations broke out in the crowd.
"You know, in previous years, it was good enough for our school to have 35 people selected. This year, there are 10 more!"
"It looks like our school is going to shine again this year!"
Teacher Zhang pressed his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, and continued, "According to convention, each of the sophomores, juniors, and seniors has ten places each, which are directly recommended. In other words, there are still fifteen places this year, which are obtained through other channels!"
"Other ways? Could it be..."
"That's right! It's just as you thought. These fifteen people either achieved excellent results in the national competition or passed the extremely strict qualifying competition!"
"Look quickly, who are they?"
The students couldn't wait to look at the list, and soon, a name caught everyone's eyes.
"Senior Shen Dong! I knew he would be qualified!"
"Of course! Senior Shen Dong is a super strong man who achieved an SSS rating in the S-level copy of the national competition last year!"
"SSS rating? Oh my god! That's an SSS rating for an S-level copy! There aren't many people in the entire Yunzhou who can do that, right?"
"Senior Shen Dong is simply a legend in our school!"
"Except for Senior Shen Dong, I don't think I've heard of any other seniors having SSS records. How did they qualify? Did they pass the qualifying competition?"
"Don't be ridiculous! Do you know how difficult the qualifying round is? There aren't many people in the entire Yunzhou who can pass the qualifying round and qualify!"
"Then what about them?"
"Hey, you don't know this, right? I heard that." A boy lowered his voice in a mysterious tone, "They might be related families!"
"A relative?!"
"Shh - keep your voice down! For things like this, it's better to understand them in your heart, it's not good to speak them out loud."
"Don't tell me, the possibility that he is a relative is quite high. After all, the qualifying round is too difficult."
Just as the students were discussing the matter, two unbelievable names suddenly caught the eye of a sharp-eyed classmate.
"Wait! Look, what is that?!" His voice trembled a little because of shock.
"What's wrong? What is it?"
"Freshman! There's a freshman!"
"What? How is that possible? It's impossible! In all these years, I've never seen a freshman qualified to participate in the Yunzhou Knight Competition!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on the end of the list, where two names belonging to freshmen were written at the end of the long list:
Lu Zijin, Lin Ye.
