Chapter 99: Sword of Life vs. Sword of Death
The night passed quickly.
The next day, the ring battle began.
One hundred geniuses fought against each other at the same time. Shen Zhong's opponent was a spiritual master. When the opponent saw Shen Zhong, the expression on his face was as dead as death.
He cursed the virtual universe system in his heart, choosing him from among nine hundred people just to fight against Shen Zhong?
It would be better to just let him stay in the secret realm of the end times.
However, although he was in despair, this genius was also a man of strong mind. He still fought back, but was instantly hacked to death by Shen Zhong who burst out his agility.
When Shen Zhong came out after the battle, Luo Feng also came out.
Both of them looked at a screen in the sky, where Shen Cong was confronting a young man.
"Is it him?" Luo Feng was slightly stunned.
When they first arrived at this plane, the young man named Yi Feng stopped them and asked questions about Shen Cong's swordsmanship.
Unexpectedly, the two of them were assigned together by the virtual universe at this time.
"The Sword of Life versus the Sword of Death, the Virtual Universe Company is really good at playing!" Rong Jun also came out at this time, and he said with interest.
"This person is not simple. He ranked 48th in the Trial Tower selection and also mastered the Law of Wind and the Law of Wood. He is already very strong among warriors." Luo Feng was worried about Shen Cong in his heart.
This is indeed a strong enemy. Shen Cong didn't expect to encounter such a tough enemy in his first battle.
Among the two hundred people selected by the virtual universe, there are not many who master the two laws, only dozens of them.
If Shen Cong is lucky, he has a good chance of meeting someone who has mastered a single rule.
"Mastering two laws does not necessarily mean you are strong, and mastering a single law does not necessarily mean you are weak." Shen Zhong said calmly.
There are too many factors that determine strength to generalize.
The man Shen Cong met was indeed very strong, but Shen Cong was not a pushover. He would have to fight to know whether he would win or lose.
Hearing this, Luo Feng nodded, and he also looked up at the huge image in the sky.
At this time, Shen Cong and Sword of Life Yi Feng had not taken any action yet, and the two seemed to be talking about something.
Until after a while——
"It seems that it is difficult to convince you, so I can only defeat you." Yi Feng looked at Shen Cong.
"Just to my liking."
Shen Cong sneered and pointed her sword at Yi Feng.
In an instant, Yifeng moved.
His body movements that embody the law of wind make him incredibly fast.
Shen Cong stood still. Her body movement speed was indeed slower, but she was more flexible. Instant turning and speed change were her strengths.
Therefore, she responds to ever-changing situations by remaining unchanged.
Swish!
The sword wrapped in green airflow suddenly came from behind Shen Cong. Shen Cong turned and dodged, and the next moment, her sword also suddenly burst out.
The speed of the sword was incredible. Shen Cong's eyes were calm as he went straight to Yi Feng's vital points.
clang!
Yi Feng blocked the sword in time, and Shen Cong's rapid attack followed.
clang!clang!clang!
The two swords kept colliding at an extremely fast speed, one was extremely sharp, and each sword contained the determination to take someone's life, while the other was steady and heavy, with endless defensive moves.
In addition to swordsmanship, there are also competitions in body movements and domain.
"In terms of overall strength, the two are evenly matched. It just depends on who will be the more skilled in the end." Many immortals were quite interested in this battle and they were all watching.
Shen Cong is strong in swordsmanship and body movements, which she created after all. Although they are not at the mainstream level, the power she exerts is quite terrifying. Yi Feng is strong in domain, the combination of wind domain and wood domain allows him to gain some advantages.
However, these two rules did not bring much advantage to Yifeng.
The law, after all, still needs to rely on secret methods to play out. If you can't play it out, no matter how much you understand, it's useless.
Time passed, and the battle between Shen Cong and Yi Feng was the longest one among hundreds of battles.
The battle lasted for nearly half an hour, and both of them were covered with scars, and the star-level ninth-level flesh provided by the virtual universe had almost reached its limit.
But in the end, it was Yifeng who fell.
"Swords are used to kill people."
After Shen Cong left these words, she stabbed Yi Feng to death with a sword.
Shen Cong, who was seriously injured in the battle, has fully recovered after returning to the genius battle plane.
"This battle is really difficult." Shen Cong finally spoke her mind after seeing Shen Zhong. She said:
"The man named 'Yifeng' does have a unique understanding of life. He may have had some special experiences, which made him so persistent."
"Really?" Shen Zhong nodded slightly.
I have to say that Shen Cong's guess was very accurate. Sword of Life Yi Feng should have been disabled since childhood, and his experience was indeed different from that of ordinary people.
"The Sword of Life is also quite interesting. Perhaps I can consider incorporating it into my swordsmanship." Shen Cong said again.
Although she acted disdainful when fighting against Yi Feng, it was only to strike back at her opponent.
In fact, she still discovered some advantages of the Sword of Life, and inspiration kept coming to her, and she wanted to incorporate it into her swordsmanship.
"It's a pity that the next game will be held today and there is not enough time. Otherwise, you can improve your strength further and maybe a miracle will happen." Shen Zhong patted Shen Cong on the shoulder and said nothing more.
"What's with that expression?" Shen Cong couldn't hold it in anymore.
What's with Shen Zhong's expression, as if that's enough for her?
Shen Zhong smiled and said nothing.
It's not too surprising that Shen Cong can make it into the top 100, but it's really unlikely that she can make it into the top 10. Who can she beat?
. . .
"Congratulations to everyone for winning the first round of battles and successfully entering the Secret Realm of Heaven and Earth. Your bonus will be increased to 100 Hunyuan units." A voice sounded in the hearts of the one hundred geniuses who won the battle.
Then, the voice continued, "Next, twenty people will be selected to compete for the qualification to enter the Taichu Secret Realm."
"These twenty people are Bolan, Shen Zhong, Gu Si Luo Luo Feng, Qian Shui, and Jialexi Shen Cong!"
"."
As the voice rang out, some of the one hundred geniuses were surprised, some couldn't believe it, and some were angry and dissatisfied.
Unfortunately, after yesterday’s lesson, no one dares to question the choice of Virtual Universe Company today.
"Look, the Virtual Universe Company thinks I'm among the top 20. Why do you think I can't be in the top 10?" Shen Cong glanced at Shen Zhong, as if Shen Zhong should apologize to her quickly.
"The selection quota is not necessarily based solely on strength, but also on potential and so on. After all, you have only just entered the Law of Wood, which is a little worse than those dual-law geniuses." Shen Zhong said thoughtfully.
"Shen Zhong, it's not just the fourth sister who has only a single attribute law. The guy called Long Yun over there also only masters the law of earth attribute." Luo Feng interjected at this time.
Hearing this, Shen Zhong just smiled and said nothing more.
"Hurry up and get ready, the next battle is about to begin." Shen Zhong said.
In fact, apart from her comprehension of the laws, Shen Cong definitely has great potential. She is too young, and it is impossible for the Virtual Universe Company to fail to notice this.
From this point of view, Shen Cong certainly has extraordinary potential.
What's more, Yi Feng, who was defeated by Shen Cong, could have been in the top 20. Since Shen Cong was able to defeat him, it was natural for him to be in the top 20.
