On the pillar, Ding Meng raised his sword and pointed it downwards. Once again, he executed the Crossing Sword Technique. A new round of brilliant sword rain appeared in the night sky. The glorious scene of ten thousand swords shooting out at the same time appeared again.
This time, Lone Star could neither dodge nor block because the Demon Sword was in the hands of one of Ding Meng's doppelgangers. The three doppelgangers on the lake were all created by Solitary Lotus Steps.
"I don't believe it!" Lone Star roared. After making a few gestures with his palms, he suddenly struck towards the sky.
"Clang —"
This time, the five-colored shield was placed directly on top of his head. It did not even cover his entire body. His goal was simple. He wanted to take on the sword rain head-on.
On the pillar, Ding Meng shook his head and said, "It's no use. You will lose without a doubt!"
After saying that, he jumped. He did not jump down, but flew up into the sky. With a whoosh, he disappeared into the depths of the night sky.
What was going on?
The audience was really curious.
Soon, everyone knew what was going on. Suddenly, there was a sharp whistling sound in the sky. It was as if thousands of soldiers and horses were passing by.
The sound was getting closer and closer, and it was also getting louder and louder. Anyone who had experienced being chased by a starship in space would know that when the enemy's powerful weapons system locked onto you, this was the situation: A high-risk energy was about to hit the starship!
At this moment, everyone's vision was filled with shock. Amidst the countless swords pouring down in torrents, the mirror image of a gigantic holy sword that reached the sky appeared on the screen. This bright white holy sword was at least a hundred meters tall. It appeared almost without warning, and it immediately blinded everyone's titanium alloy eyes.
"Oh my god, what kind of move is this?"
"Wahhh, is this an interstellar missile?"
"F * ck, even an interstellar missile isn't as big as this, right?"
"Oh my god, it's the brothers who are coming to bite you!"
"With so many of them gathered together, let's see if you're scared or not!"
…
This was the last move of Zhao's Lone Sword, "Man and Sword as One":
The essence of the sword, the movement of the Qi, the dense mist of the body, the unity of heaven and man, the will before the sword, the divine power to break the enemy!
Not only did Ding Meng have a deeper understanding of the Solitary Sword of Zhao, but the Sacred Sword he created was simply destructive. Perhaps even Mr. Zhao himself did not expect that one day Ding Meng would be able to practice this sword technique to such an unprecedented level.
This was the true sword splitting the starry sky, its divine might invincible!
Solitary Star's five-colored shield appeared like a small piece of paper before the Holy Sword. Forget about shattering, the Holy Sword disappeared without a trace. Not even the white light of death could be seen. Solitary Star's five-colored shield appeared like a small piece of paper before the Holy Sword. Not to mention shattering, the Holy Sword disappeared. Even the white light of death could not be seen.
The system's subtitles immediately appeared, "Crazy Explosion wins!"
The livestream room was once again shocked. What the f * ck! Everything was flattened in an unstoppable manner!
Who asked you to surrender? Who asked you to act tough? Who asked you to go invisible and launch a sneak attack? Now, I'm going to use my ultimate move to wipe you out.
"I have a feeling that Ding Meng didn't win by killing his opponent directly, right?" Ling Xingqi said thoughtfully.
Suo Mansha smiled and said, "I think only he knows the reason behind it!"
This time, she did not guess correctly. In the second half of the match, only one person among the audience could appreciate the subtlety of the battle and understand Ding Meng's thought process. This person was Eisendale. Because she had the experience of plundering the Devouring World, she knew that Ding Meng had used a lot of the Immortal Elemental King's consummate skill.
Solitary Star's Devil's Shadow Strike was based on a premise, which was to absorb the power of the Sacred Lake. Who activated the power of the Sacred Lake?
It was activated by both Ding Meng and Solitary Star. In other words, Solitary Star would gain more and more of an advantage if they continued to fight normally.
And the turning point started when Ding Meng jumped down from the pillar platform. To be precise, Ding Meng used two consummate skills on the pillar platform. The first one was extremely important. If he didn't succeed in using this martial skill, he wouldn't be able to do anything to Du Xing. This consummate skill was "Immortal Yuan Dreamland".
Just like before they found the Immortal Elemental King in the underground ruins of Thousand Sails Star, the illusion that everyone had in the palace was all an illusion.
Therefore, Ding Meng jumping off the pillar, jumping into the bottom of the lake, activating the Sacred Lake, and floating to the surface were all illusions. What the audience saw was also an illusion. This was because Ding Meng's real body stayed on the pillar and did not move at all.
However, in order to make the illusion more realistic, he used his second skill, the Solitary Lotus Step. Therefore, everyone thought that his real body was Ding Meng in the center of the lake.
How was Solitary Star's Devil's Shadow Strike seen through?
That is, Ding Meng has used the Serene Dream Projection, which is the Nether Vision. Although you can be invisible when traveling alone, you have absorbed the power of the Holy Lake. Although Telekinesis vision and aura perception can't do anything to you, under the gaze of the Serene Dream Projection, your every move has nowhere to hide.
Finally, it was Ding Meng's time to perform. He kept letting his doppelgangers take the sword on purpose, giving Solitary Star the illusion that Ding Meng could not see him and could only use his doppelgangers to take the sword.
Therefore, when he succeeded many times and suddenly stabbed the real body, Solitary Star would inevitably strengthen his attack. At this time, his Devil Sword would be successfully tricked out. Once the Diamond Starfusing Art absorbed energy, Ding Meng would predict that Solitary Star would let go of the sword. At this time, the ending was determined.
It could be said that these thoughts, skills, and tricks were all linked together and impeccable. This was the strategy that Ding Meng had developed in countless battles. This was also why Eisendale admired Ding Meng. Even if Solitary Star had some strength, if he wanted to win against someone like Ding Meng, he was still a little lacking.
At this moment, the quarter-finals were over. However, today's competition was not over yet, because the top four contestants would be decided today. The remaining eight contestants would start a new round of battles after an hour of rest.
The system rematched again and after ten minutes, the next round was announced:
Round 1: Dream Return VS Eisendale; Round 2: Guan Wuming VS Long Feiyang;
Round 3: Kneel to Me VS Ji Chenyu; Round 4: Lei Jingtian VS Crazy Explosion;
In the Bingyi Group's VIP room, only Ding Meng and Jun Ling were left. Looking at the list of opponents, Ding Meng could not help but smile bitterly. After entering the pinnacle of the competition, the opponents that he met were all very strong. Now, he actually met the legendary Lei Jingtian in the quarter-finals.
Sir System really knew how to play. It matched him with such a strong opponent, and he was about to meet him so soon. He did not even have time to prepare.
Jun Ling also smiled bitterly. "Boss, you won't stop at the quarter-finals, right?"
Ding Meng's eyelids drooped. "You should worry about yourself. You met Wen Yang's fiancée."
"Tsk!"
Jun Ling shook her head in disdain. "I promised Miss Ji before that if I met this Ji Chenyu, I would beat him to death."
Ding Meng said, "Out of hundreds of millions of contestants, the last eight contestants basically represent the strongest eight people in the Federal Empire. If they can make it this far, do you think they're weak?"
Jun Ling pursed her lips and did not argue. She definitely understood this logic, and she understood it better than most people. Ji Chenyu was not easy to deal with. To be able to marry Wen Yang to Chancellor Ji Chenxue, how could such a person be weak?
While they were discussing, Ling Xingqi and Suo Mansha were also studying the competition schedule.
"I didn't expect Ding Meng to meet Lei Jingtian so soon." Suo Mansha's expression was a little regretful.
Ling Xingqi was curious. "Madam, you seem to be more optimistic about Lei Jingtian?"
Suo Mansha nodded. "He's a two-time champion. His record is impressive. If nothing unexpected happens, he might become a three-time champion."
Ling Xingqi did not answer. Although Suo Mansha's words were not without reason, she was more optimistic about Ding Meng. Ding Meng was always able to surprise people, and Ding Meng was a guy who was good at creating miracles.
Suo Mansha suddenly said, "Xingqi, do you have any thoughts of working for the Federation?"
Ling Xingqi smiled bitterly. "Madam, you know that I don't participate much in the management of the company. My two little sisters are in charge. As for the official career, I really don't have much interest."
Suo Mansha smiled. "I know that you and Dai Dai are the same type. You both admire martial arts and love adventure, but this does not conflict with working for the Federation."
Ling Xingqi was curious. "Madam, you mean …"
Suo Mansha put away her smile and said seriously, "I can only tell you this. If you are interested, you will be rewarded. Moreover, this reward will be of great help to you."
Although her words were tactful, the meaning was very clear. For an expert like Ling Xingqi, the successor of a large financial group or a high ranking official of the Federation could not arouse her interest. What she was truly interested in was the Mou Xing Civilization's Divine Light Energy, or the higher level of martial arts.
Since Somantha was speaking like that, it proved that the so-called reward was definitely related to this aspect.
Ling Xingqi was shocked. Could it be that the president also knew about the Mou Xing Civilization?
Ling Xingqi suddenly felt her heart pounding, but she was still very calm. "Madam, if there is such an opportunity, I am willing to give it a try."
Suo Mansha nodded. "In the future, you will be very glad that you made the choice you made today."
An hour passed very quickly, and the top four battle was about to begin.
The first battle was between Dream Return and Eisendale. This battle lasted for a full hour, and in the end, Eisendale unfortunately lost. The audience could not tell, but Ding Meng knew that Nanxun had the psychic power of transformation. Although Eisendale was very strong, it would be very difficult for her to win.
The second battle was not suspenseful. After Guan Wuming and Long Feiyang fought fiercely for half an hour, Long Feiyang was eliminated. At this point, all the experts in Shenghao Xinhong were eliminated.
At this moment, the third battle had not started, but the official website showed that there were 3.2 billion people online. It was undoubtedly the most watched battle of the Fengyun Convention, because both sides were very popular.
Ding Meng even sneaked into Ding Meng's livestream. Jun Ling's popularity was as high as 1.1 billion. When Ding Meng's "Crazed" ID appeared in the livestream, the fans there were instantly excited.
"F * ck, am I seeing things? Crazed Boss is here!
He is here to cheer for Big Sister! "
"F * ck, it really is Crazed Boss. He is so sneaky!"
"Boss is mighty, Big Sister is invincible!"
"Kill the opponent, kill that bullsh * t goddess."
"Yes, that girl loves to show off!"
"Big Sister is good, evil is good, you need to experience it for three minutes, then you will be like me, like Big Sister and Boss!"
"F * ck, 666!"
