Chapter 29 Overwhelming Speed and Power
Just as the Sky-Splitting Cannon was about to engulf Cai'er, Cai'er moved.
There were no fancy footwork moves, no eerie afterimages. She simply and casually took a step forward.
Immediately afterwards, the green bamboo staff in her hand traced an extremely ordinary green trajectory from bottom to top, heading towards the violent silver beam of light.
"What is she doing? Trying to withstand a Sky-Splitting Cannon with a bamboo stick?!" The magicians in the audience stared wide-eyed, as if they had seen the most absurd thing in the world.
But the absurdity turned into horror in the next second.
"Bang!"
A deafening thud exploded on the ring.
The seemingly world-destroying Sky-Splitting Cannon, upon contact with the Green Bamboo Staff, was like a block of tofu hitting an iron hammer, being forcefully split in two and dissipating into countless silver specks of light in the air!
"What?!" Wang Yuanyuan's pupils shrank suddenly.
But she was a veteran of countless battles, and although shocked, she reacted extremely quickly. Using the momentum of her charge, she swung her arms violently, and the giant serrated shield, taller than herself, swept towards Cai'er with a piercing whistling sound, like a giant meat grinder!
Tier 5 Warrior Skill - Spinning Shield Sky-Splitting Strike!
The force of this strike was more than a thousand pounds! Even a fifth-tier magical beast standing here would be instantly cut in half at the waist!
However, faced with this powerful and deadly attack, Cai'er's lips curled into a disdainful sneer beneath her veil.
A contest of strength?
Although she is an assassin, don't forget that she has just refined the core of an entire dragon!
That dragon pill not only caused her inner spiritual power to surge, but also increased her outer spiritual power (physical strength) by a full three hundred points!
It should be noted that the limit of external spiritual power for ordinary humans is only a few hundred points.
At this moment, Cai'er's seemingly delicate and fair body conceals a terrifying brute force comparable to that of a pure-blooded humanoid dragon!
"when--!!!"
A metallic boom, like the sound of a great bell, resounded throughout the arena. The terrifying sound waves even made several contestants in the front row cover their ears.
Everyone stared blankly at the center of the arena.
Wang Yuanyuan's unstoppable "Spinning Shield Sky-Splitting Strike" came to a halt.
It abruptly stopped in mid-air!
What blocked this giant serrated shield was actually just the bamboo staff in Cai'er's hand that looked like it would break at the slightest touch!
Cai'er held the cane with one hand, her wrist as steady as a mountain, without the slightest tremor.
The terrifying force emanating from the shield, powerful enough to shatter mountains, was completely absorbed by her slender body, without even breaking the magic stone ground beneath her feet!
"This—how is this possible! Your power—" Wang Yuanyuan gripped the shield with both hands, his tiger's mouth was numb from the shock, and his eyes were filled with undisguised horror.
Her absolute strength, which she was so proud of, was actually blocked head-on by an assassin with one hand?! And the assassin even seemed to be handling it with ease!
What kind of monster is this?!
"Your movements are too slow. And your strength is too weak."
Cai'er's cold voice traveled through the shield to Wang Yuanyuan's ears, like the whisper of death.
The next instant, Cai'er's wrist, which was gripping the green bamboo staff, suddenly jerked.
A terrifying force, ten times more violent and domineering than Wang Yuanyuan's, erupted from the bamboo staff like a volcanic eruption!
"boom!"
Wang Yuanyuan felt an overwhelming force strike her. Even though she poured all her spiritual energy into her shield to defend herself, she was still uncontrollably thrown backward, her feet leaving the ground along with the shield.
In the instant she lost her balance, Cai'er's figure disappeared.
The audience below the stage only saw a flash of purple light.
Before even the sound of air being torn apart could be heard, Cai'er had already traversed more than ten meters like a ghost and appeared behind Wang Yuanyuan, who was flying backwards in mid-air.
Absolute speed dominance!
As Wang Yuanyuan crashed heavily to the ground with a muffled groan, a cold bamboo cane was already silently pressed against her pale throat.
If Cai'er is willing, she can stab her throat at any time.
The entire room fell silent.
You could hear a pin drop.
The referee's mouth dropped open, and he even forgot to blow his whistle.
The eight contestants below the stage, including Li Xin, were all frozen in place, staring blankly at the scene on the stage, their minds completely blank.
What happened?
How many seconds passed from the start to the end of the match?
The seemingly frail blind female assassin did not rely on speed to whittle down the enemy's strength; instead, she chose the most brutal method, using pure physical strength to overwhelm the shield-wielding warrior known for his power!
Then, in the instant the opponent lost their balance, they used a speed too fast for the naked eye to catch, and instantly killed them!
Overwhelming power! Instant kill with speed!
This is hardly a close contest; it's more like an ancient beast in human skin unilaterally ravaging its prey!
"I lost."
Wang Yuanyuan lay on the ground, feeling the piercing coldness in her throat, and closed her eyes bitterly.
She was completely convinced of her defeat and couldn't even muster the slightest thought of resistance.
Cai'er calmly put away her bamboo cane, turned around, and her purple skirt swayed slightly in the wind.
Ignoring the almost horrified stares from everyone present, she whispered to Bai Ye in her mind, "Bai Ye, the effects of the Dragon Pill seem to be quite good."
In her mind's eye, Cai'er's voice remained clear and cold, but if one listened carefully, one could hear a hint of excitement and shock hidden beneath the calm.
In that attack, she didn't even use much spiritual power; she relied purely on the strength of her physical body to send a peak fourth-tier giant shield warrior, known for his physical strength, flying.
This feeling of explosive power was an unprecedented and novel experience for her, who had always followed a light and agile path.
"Of course." Bai Ye crossed his legs in his mind, his tone full of smugness. "Don't you know who picked out this treasure for you? This is the dragon core of a pure-blooded dragon. Even after the passage of time, the life essence it contains is enough to transform your physical body. With your current external spiritual power, you could easily crush even those fifth-tier berserkers who specialize in physical cultivation. How could something I chose for you be anything less than effective?"
Hearing Bai Ye's arrogant tone, Cai'er couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth under her veil, revealing a faint yet captivating smile.
She didn't say anything more, but simply gripped the green bamboo staff in her hand. Then, under the awe-inspiring gazes of everyone present, she walked lightly down from the trial ground and returned to her seat.
With Caiji's departure, the suffocating and oppressive atmosphere in the magic trial arena finally eased a little.
"Round 1, Match 2!" The referee took a deep breath, calming himself after being stunned by Cai'er's performance, and announced loudly, "Magic Temple, Lin Xin, versus Priest Temple, Sima Xian! Please come to the stage!"
