It seemed like a very inappropriate sentence, but it timely solved the current awkward situation and eased the awkward atmosphere.
The captains looked at each other, and their desire to help Kirito pass the test became even stronger.
They were the only ones who could see that Kirito's expression was deliberate. He was faking it to ease the current atmosphere.
Soi Fon's expression became even more appreciative. She nodded and said, "Since that's the case, let's begin!"
Kirito did not waste any time. He immediately used Dao Breaker 33, Fall of Blue Flame on Soi Fon's face.
Everyone was happy with Kirito's performance. In their opinion, the reason why Kirito didn't hold back was because Soi Fon's warning made him lose face, which was why he attacked so fiercely.
In their opinion, Kirito's sneak attack would only anger Soi Fon. Even if he could pass the test, they believed that his future days would not be as smooth.
For people like them who enjoyed watching a good show, they were naturally happy to see such a situation. They were so happy that they almost laughed out loud.
However, Soi Fon did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. Instead, she praised Kirito's decisiveness and ruthlessness.
Since both sides had already decided on this battle, it was inevitable that they would make a move. If Kirito still showed mercy in the face of such a powerful opponent, it would only mean that he was a fool.
As for the so-called sneak attack, it did not exist in Soi Fon's eyes. In fact, she thought that she could make her move after Kirito rejected her suggestion to switch people.
This was the difference between experts and ordinary people. Ordinary people would find all kinds of excuses for their failure. They would even use morality to kidnap their opponents.
However, true experts would not do that. Every battle they fought was a matter of life and death. They had to cultivate such habits in order to survive on the battlefield.
This was the way of survival for experts. They would never let their guard down for any reason.
Even if this was just a test, in their eyes, it was still a kind of battle. They could not let their guard down.
If they made a mistake, it would be the scariest thing for an expert.
Failure and death were not scary to them. After all, they were already prepared for it.
However, if he were to lose to someone weaker than him or die at the hands of someone weaker than him, that would be the true humiliation.
Soi Fon lightly stepped on the ground and dodged Kirito's attack by a hair's breadth.
Kirito did not even have time to react before he felt his wrist being grabbed. His heart skipped a beat.
Soi Fon looked like she was barely dodging, as if she was caught off guard by Kirito's sudden attack. But in reality, this was a common tactic used by experts.
They would never use 20% of their strength to solve something that could be done with 10% of their strength. Sometimes, in a battle of the same level, 10% of their strength was enough to tip the scales of the battle.
Although he was surprised, Kirito didn't give up. He would rather die than lose this fight in one hit.
Dao Breaker 33, Descent of Blue Flame!
Kirito did not care about Soi Fon grabbing his hand and used the same move again.
Although Soi Fon dodged the attack just now, Kirito did not think that she could dodge it again in such a short distance.
Soi Fon now only had two choices. She could either block it or dodge it. Only in this way could she deal with it.
As for the power of the explosion at close range, Kirito did not care at all because his Armament Haki was enough to protect his safety. Besides, he did not believe that Soi Fon would choose to block it.
Not everyone had the opportunity to learn Armament Haki. After all, this was Soul Society and not One Piece's world.
But to Kirito's surprise, Soi Fon didn't even try to dodge the attack when it was right in front of her.
At this point, Kirito had no time to think about why he made a mistake in his judgment. He chose to use Armament Haki to cover the surface of his body.
In an instant, Kirito's body turned black, and his whole body was covered with Busoshoku Haki, making him look like a statue.
Kirito's protection could be said to be very good. Even the wrist that was grabbed by Soi Fon was covered with a layer of Haki.
Of course, he also wanted to add a layer of protection to Soi Fon. After all, Soi Fon had always been very good to him.
It was a pity that he had been training the reaction speed of Armament Haki, but he did not pay attention to the amount of Haki. Now, it was impossible to cover two people.
However, with his current strength, he would not cause too much damage to Soi Fon. At most, he would make Soi Fon look a little embarrassed.
Based on Soi Fon's personality, she wouldn't get angry at Kirito. Besides, it was a bonus that he was able to put a party leader in such a difficult position with one hit. So, Kirito decided to only cover himself.
However, the expected explosion and impact did not happen. When Soi Fon approached Soi Fon, a strange change occurred.
The Soi Fon did not hit Soi Fon. Instead, it seemed to have touched an invisible shield and slowly became smaller.
In the blink of an eye, the Soi Fon became invisible under Kirito's eyes. It was as if it had never appeared.
Looking at Kirito's stunned expression, Soi Fon seemed to understand his expression. She said with a mysterious smile on her face, "Surprised, right?
This is called Anti-Ghost Killing!
You will know when you pass the test! "
Before Kirito could recover from his shock, Soi Fon had already used the hand that grabbed Kirito's wrist as support to fly sideways. Her slender leg carried a destructive Reiatsu power as it flew towards Kirito's head.
When Kirito's wrist was grabbed by Soi Fon, everyone was almost certain that Kirito would not be able to pass this test.
At this moment of crisis, Kirito did not even have time to react. His life might even be in danger.
In their opinion, Soi Fon did not go back on her words. On the surface, she seemed to be very optimistic about Kirito, but she actually wanted to kill him.
Thinking of this, they could not help but shiver. There was an ancient saying that the most poisonous thing was a woman's heart.
