Chapter 276 Battle of the Peak, Battle of Wu Xiao(1/2)
The fairy games arena in the live broadcast screen, with sunshine shining.
The summer wind blew, and the flag at the top swung in the wind, bringing out a burst of hot air. Below the flag was a very enthusiastic audience. Tens of thousands of arms stood up between the seats like forests, and swayed like waves under the impact of cheers.
Five minutes before the game started, the broadcast of the in-field began. From the audience to the rest room, the sound spread throughout every inch of the field.
"Friends of the audience, we are about to enter the last game of the first round of the Immortal Games. The contestants in this game are Wu Hao and Xiao Youyu."
In the preparation area, the staff responsible for the planning of the arena received news. The people wearing stadium uniforms walked into the contestants' resting place, entered the two rooms respectively, and rushed to the two waiting rooms.
"Student Wu, it's time for your competition."
"Student Xiao, it's your turn to prepare."
In the two rooms, two figures responded at the same time. They stood up from their respective seats, walked out of the door, and walked through the corridor toward the entrance on the north and south sides.
It was the best time of the afternoon. The sunlight was pouring out of the ring window, and was cut into warm golden squares by the window, reflecting on the ground, like frozen light and shadow photo frames.
In the golden light and shadow, the two people walked towards each other from both sides, wearing the golden warm sun, passing by in the midfield, and then heading towards both ends of the field, without saying a word to each other.
In the corridor, only monotonous footsteps were ringing, and the lingering sound collided and echoed between the long passages, and soon returned to calm again.
At the same time, outside the field, separated by several walls, the sacred fire was rising from the large tripod in the middle, and the seats around were already full. Tens of thousands of spectators screamed and shook the small flag in their hands, and the boiling tide rushed to the sky.
"Now, please enter the game."
Accompanied by the sound of the news, the two figures entered from the north and south sides of the arena, wearing the same short Taoist costume.
The sunlight deflected, casting the shadow of the dome. The dark shadow cut across between the two, and it was like an invisible blade hanging down in the air, splitting the arena into two halves and splitting into two poles of Yin and Yang.
On the left side of the shadow, Wu Hao stepped forward step by step, his hands beside him had already clenched into fists, and blue veins on the back of his hand were raised.
He lowered his eyes slightly, his expression was buried in the shadow on his face, and the cameras on all sides only captured his back. The back was in the center of the camera, and the clouds surrounding the yin and yang symbols flew like a cloak.
"Hey! Haozi is out!"
In a village in Sichuan Province, in the Kunlun Event Square in the village, the large screen in front of the venue will clearly show this scene. As the figure steps, several rows of villagers sitting in front of the screen will applaud and cheer.
On the left side of the first row of seats, the woman wrapped in a headscarf picked up the little fleshy hand of the child in her arms and pointed to the back of the screen: "Look, that's your brother Haozi."
On the right side of the third row seat, the old man holding a crutch straightened his body: "Haozi is here to play the national competition... Our village has been counted as a big shot..."
In the fifth row of seats, several elementary school students wearing village school uniforms squeezed together. The man in the middle looked proud: "Look, this is Wu Hao from our village! Last time he came to my house for dinner!"
Several children around him who were pulled by him were full of envious faces and chattered around him: "Have you seen him a real person? Then, do you think, is this person very powerful?"
"Of course!" The primary school student who was talking patted his chest, "He... is so awesome!"
When he said this, his face was full of redness and his lines were full of pride.
......
The screen switches on the screen and the lens moves to the opposite side of the field.
At the entrance to the north, Xiao Youyu put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the field. Sunlight hit the projection of the dome on him, and his figure was thrown into the shadow, and the next second it appeared from the shadow: at this moment, his face was silent, without any unnecessary expression.
"Is this the Chinese scholar?"
In the phrl conference room, Adrian's mouth was pulled downwards: "A scholar...goes to participate in sports?"
"This is not a simple sport, Professor Wilson, you don't care about the development of the world now." Jack shook his head, "It seems you didn't read the news I transferred to you, because if you read it, you will understand-he is not an athlete, but a magician."
"The magician who plays with the rules of this world."
"Magic?" Adrian was stunned for a moment, and then sneered, "Editor Jack, you should no longer be addicted to children's fantasy literature at your age."
"This is not a fantasy, professor." Jack said in a deep voice, "please see, this is live broadcast, it is reality - in this game, he will actually distort the existing physical rules. There may be a new 'truth' in his hand."
Adrian frowned in displeasure, but raised his eyes and looked at the screen in front of him.
"Is it a game..." He snorted from his nose, "Then I want to see how he used this method of twisting the rules to win."
.........
In the fairy game, Wu Xiao and the other two stopped at the same time.
Without pre-match calls or any extra conversation, they just stood on both sides of the field, looking at each other from the forty-meter green field. The defensive barrier gradually formed and rose on their side, completely separating their world from the hustle and bustle outside the field.
"Please prepare for the contestant."
The final announcement came out on the radio, and the sound of the audience around them was immediately dim. They no longer tried to make a sound, but just lowered their voices and whispered, and countless eyes moved continuously between the two on the court.
"That one is the student president, it should be very awesome..."
"Not necessarily. Judging from the performance in the previous few games, the one on the opposite side is also very strong..."
"All of them are geniuses..."
"Looking at the expressions of these two people, they both have to be serious..."
"They all want to win."
The detailed discussions were rising and falling outside the court. The villagers in front of the screen raised their heads excitedly, and the two scholars in the conference room hugged their chests. At this moment, the eyes of the whole world were gathering on this small field.
At this time, a strong wind passed through the field, and the flags and the clothes of the two of them were dancing in the wind. They all bowed their heads and closed their eyes, and breathed silently. Two small wind whirlpools accompanied them, gradually forming on the field like two vortexes.
For a moment, the sky light solidified, and all the movements in the field calmed down, and only the two vortexes of spiritual power were still rotating. Until a certain moment, the decisive voice broke the silence.
“…The competition begins!”
Xiao Youyu suddenly opened his eyes, and kicked his feet while releasing his spiritual power. He quickly turned around and retreated towards the oblique angle that was farthest away from Wu Hao in the field.
While flying back, he saw that he flipped his hands freely, and in the blink of an eye, several talismans were already stuck in his fingertips. As his wrist trembled, the talismans quickly scattered out, hooking up in the air, faintly forming a talisman array floating beside him.
"Oh, this student Fu Xiu's judgment and reaction are very sophisticated."
In the broadcast room, the commentator was not stingy and praised: "Should you say you are worthy of being the representative of the school? The performance of the opening alone is better than most of the previous people."
——As long as you understand the expertise of these two people, those with a little brain will understand where the focus of this game is: distance.
In the state of the foundation building stage, once Xiao Youyu is pulled apart, Wu Hao's attack will not be effective at all. Similarly, if Wu Hao approaches, Xiao Youyu will definitely not be able to fight back.
Therefore, for Xiao Youyu, the most dangerous thing is the opening few seconds: within this time interval, it takes time for his magic to be spread out, but Wu Hao can immediately launch the strongest attack.
Among the two, Xiao Youyu's cultivation level is slightly higher, but this is not enough to make up for the gap between talisman cultivation and physical cultivation. As long as Wu Hao seizes this close opportunity, it is entirely possible to end the game in a few seconds.
Therefore, within the first second of the game, he made the most correct response, tried his best to get the farthest distance from Wu Hao, and spread the talisman array.
In fact, during this opening time, what he took out was not just the aggressive thunder talisman, but there were several auxiliary and control spells hidden in his cuffs, making all preparations.
"It's very decisive. It seems that he must have thought of a backup plan long ago." The commentator nodded in front of the screen, then rolled his eyes, "Then, let's take a look at the opponent..."
He suddenly stopped halfway through his words, and at the same time, all the experts in the broadcast room couldn't help but open their eyes.
At this moment, in the picture in front of them, while Xiao Youyu was moving rapidly, Wu Hao opposite him stood there without moving.
——Yes, in such a critical opening few seconds, Wu Hao did not move.
"...Um?"
Xiao Youyu's figure stopped on the side of the field, and a look of surprise flashed across his face, and even the audience around him were puzzled. Including where the opponent was, everyone did not expect this unexpected development.
No attack?
He didn't even attack?
"What kind of tactic is he?"
All the audience around were confused, and the experts in the broadcast room immediately brainstormed. At this time, everyone was thinking about the same question inside and outside the stadium.
——What is Wu Hao doing?
At that moment, the audience was all confused, and at least twenty or thirty possible strategies flashed through the experts watching the game. But in fact, Wu Hao's idea was outrageously simple.
His tactics are just no tactics.
The advantages and disadvantages of both sides were too obvious, and he also knew that Xiao Youyu would definitely make the most incredible response in the weak period at the opening to protect himself and find opportunities. But with his ability, he still couldn't guess what method this person would use to hold him up.
To put it bluntly, Wu Hao knew from the very beginning: he would definitely not be able to play Xiao Youyu with tactics.
At the opening stage, in order to seize the opportunity to unfold the formation, it was not surprising that Xiao Youyu did anything, which would be the peak of his tactics.
So, instead of guessing this person’s thoughts and facing his mysterious and changeable strategies, it’s better to... fight directly.
Wu Hao thought so, without moving, but just breathing and breathing secretly, allowing the overflowing spiritual power to cover his whole body, and make the most complete defense, cross the arena, and face the opponent there with all four eyes.
The two sides had their eyes intersected, and he seemed to be stunned when he saw Xiao Youyu there. However, after only half a second, he curled his lips and then withdrew his back and dodged.
It was obvious that he had already understood Wu Hao's purpose.
——It's you.
Xiao Youyu shook his head helplessly, but at the same time he put away the talismans he originally wanted to hold his opponent, and changed them all to attack types. Then he saw the talismans floating around him, resonating with each other, and gradually forming a network above his head.
This action was no longer as urgent as before, and it could even be called leisurely and leisurely. He knew that Wu Hao would not interrupt.
As the talisman array unfolded, a small current began to squeak between the talismans, the sound became louder and the lightning became more dazzling. Until several breaths passed, the magic was completely completed - what was displayed in front of everyone was a lightning array that was two meters long.
"This is..." Outside the screen, Adrian's expression began to change.
Someone started to vent in the audience. From so far they could hear the static crackling sound of their hair.
At this time, the thick clouds flowed through the sun wheel at the beginning, and the light in the entire field dimmed, and the thunder array in the field became the brightest light source. The shadows around were sometimes bright and sometimes dark, and only the light of the current was almost dazzling.
Everyone saw it. At this moment, the thick arc was like a light dragon entreating above Xiao Youyu's head, and a small electric current danced around him. The thunderous light flashed brightly in his eyes, and his figure seemed to be standing under the thunderstorm and dark clouds.
To be continued...
