[??? Did I see that right? Why are there two of him?]
[Why are there two people, wasn't it agreed that the tournament is a one-on-one mode?]
[Hiss? A humanoid Guardian Beast?]
[Two against one in the name of justice!]
[Honestly, kind of cute...uh, three heads...never mind.]
[Three Heads and Eight Arms, looking cool!]
The moment Nezha appeared in the Martial Arts Arena, the audience was taken aback.
A supposed one-on-one, why did it suddenly become two against one?
What's going on with Nezha?
But obviously, no one was there to explain any of this.
After all, there's no commentator in this round of the Joint Examination between the four schools.
At the moment when Nezha's Three Heads and Eight Arms form initiated, Ma Mingyu was startled, but then calmed down considering he was at the Mid-stage power of Great Liang, and his opponent was merely at the Initial stage.
He even felt like laughing.
A frightening form with no real power to back it up is just a show!
Ma Mingyu scoffed as he watched Nezha charging towards him, swinging his great sword directly at Nezha's head.
However, Ma Mingyu's attack was easily blocked by Nezha.
The gun blade blocked the swing of the great sword, both hands holding the spear, stepping sideways, the spear tip at the gun point suddenly thrust forward.
Ma Mingyu couldn't react in time, completely unaware that not only was the spear tip a spearhead, but even the rear end of the spear was a spearhead too.
Fortunately for him, although Nezha's attack was successful, Ma Mingyu's Defense Equipment protected him from the fatal strike.
Even so, under Nezha's powerful attack, his Purple Quality Defense Equipment dimmed significantly.
This was after triggering the Skill effect on his defense equipment.
A look of surprise flashed in Ma Mingyu's eyes. His defensive power wasn't weak, and the Defense Skills on the Defense Equipment were among the best of the same quality.
Yet, a Purple Quality Equipment Card which could achieve an A-level, was so easily breached?
What quality level was the long spear in the opponent's hand?
Ma Mingyu was shocked and immediately thought to retreat.
But clearly, Nezha wasn't giving him the chance.
The Fire-tipped Spear slapped horizontally against Ma Mingyu's chest, while the other two hands holding rocket guns aimed at Ma Mingyu's knife-holding hand.
Ma Mingyu was forced to loosen his grip on his great sword and retreat.
Disarmed!
And by a contender whose power was lower than his!
Looking at Nezha across from him, this was the only thought in Ma Mingyu's mind right now.
"How is this possible!"
Ma Mingyu wanted to roar, but the Defense Equipment on his body had already shattered after two attacks from Nezha.
Plus, with no weapon in hand, Ma Mingyu was practically in a bare state.
Nezha gave him no chance; the Fire-tipped Spear directly pierced through Ma Mingyu's throat, cutting short the words he was about to spit out.
The scene shifted, Nezha disappeared.
Effects of the Martial Arts Arena ended, and Jiang Yuan appeared on the stage with a terrified Ma Mingyu.
"How can this be!"
After recovering, Ma Mingyu turned his head fiercely to look at Jiang Yuan.
"You, just an Initial stage of Great Liang, so much below my power level, how could you defeat me instantaneously?!"
"Hmm..."
Jiang Yuan thought for a moment looking at Ma Mingyu in front of him: "Strength, I suppose."
After saying this, Jiang Yuan smiled slightly, without caring what Ma Mingyu looked like, and directly turned to leave the stage.
"Not bad, successfully passed the first round."
After Jiang Yuan stepped down, seeing Ai Xiu and Li Chengyi looking at him, he also smiled slightly and spoke to the two.
"Indeed not bad, faced the weakest."
"Hmm, except you."
Before Ai Xiu and Li Chengyi could speak, a young man sitting in front of Ai Xiu spoke up.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, glanced at him, but had no intention of engaging with him, and directly went back to his seat.
"That guy is not from our Zhongyuan Academy, just like the Ma Mingyu who just fought, he's from Martial Arts Academy, that's why he spoke like that."
After Jiang Yuan sat down, Ai Xiu explained to him: "But he's just a guy who ranks somewhere around twentieth on the leaderboard, not that strong."
Ai Xiu's voice was not concealed, and the guy who just mocked Jiang Yuan clearly heard her.
However, unlike Jiang Yuan, Ai Xiu is indeed a strong second-ranked player in the fifth year of Zhongyuan Academy.
The guy could only glare fiercely and then turned to continue watching the stage.
"So that's how it is."
Jiang Yuan also laughed a bit, deliberately raising his voice: "Seems like he's really not that impressive."
"That's enough!"
Hearing Jiang Yuan's loud comment, that guy from the Martial Arts Academy finally turned his head around, looking coldly at Jiang Yuan.
"My strength may not be something, but it's still much stronger than someone like you who relied on luck to get in!"
"I hope you'll still be as tough when you face me next time!"
"Don't worry, my mouth is definitely tougher than your strength," Jiang Yuan grinned at him, completely disregarding his comment.
Two hundred people, how easily could these two encounter each other?
Maybe one of them will be eliminated first.
A threat?
Just a joke.
