Chapter 27 The Battle Begins!

The entire official live broadcast room of the virtual world was filled with countless viewers watching the scene unfold, observing the two competitors selecting their weapons and equipment.

"Xu Jingming only chose a spear, no shield!"

"Tiger Fussen is only using a pair of battle axes."

Accompanied by the discussions of the hosts and guests, Xu Jingming and Tiger Fussen flew into the battle map.

The battle had begun!

Countless viewers held their breath in anticipation!

"Jingming, you can do it." Li Miaomiao also grew nervous. In the later stages of the competition, no one had absolute certainty.

…

Snowy map.

Snowdrifts submerged to the calf, the cold wind howled, and the biting chill permeated, seeping into the body. Xu Jingming observed his opponent.

Tiger Fussen resembled a giant bear. In terms of height and weight, he was even larger than a real-life brown bear! The heavy armor and twin axes he wore added up to more than ten tons. At this moment, he revealed a smile, his eyes burning as he looked at Xu Jingming: "Participating in this World Martial Arts Tournament has been too easy… But after seeing you, I knew that today's match would be very enjoyable!"

"Yes, it will be very enjoyable!" As soon as Xu Jingming finished speaking, he took a step and charged forward.

Xu Jingming, clad in armor and wielding a spear, carried no shield. His entire weight reached 3.7 tons! After all, the spear alone weighed 1.2 tons. The terrifying weight caused his feet to sink into the deep snow, treading on solid ground.

He exerted force and charged out! Boom!

Snow exploded. In the midst of the exploding snow, Xu Jingming charged towards Tiger Fussen, creating a wave of snow in his wake.

"So fast!" Tiger Fussen's pupils constricted. Although he had witnessed Xu Jingming's terrifying speed in the previous live broadcast scene, he was still taken aback facing it in person. This was the most terrifying speed displayed in the entire World Martial Arts Tournament.

Even Tiano Xili was not as fast as Xu Jingming!

"421 meters per second!" In the live broadcast room, the female host and three guests were also amazed and shocked by this speed.

Tiger Fussen dared not stand his ground. He also charged forward, unleashing the most terrifying kinetic energy. Having cultivated the Giant Bear Evolution Method and wearing heavy armor, Tiger Fussen was most confident in head-on collisions.

"Head-on collision? I've never been afraid of anyone in the world." Tiger Fussen also created a terrifying wave of snow as he charged.

"Boom!!!"

The two snow waves collided.

Tiger Fussen, resembling a giant bear, was sent flying backward with a crash. As he flew backward, his feet repeatedly stomped the ground, retreating more than thirty meters before he stabilized himself. Tiger Fussen, wielding his twin axes, trembled slightly, looking at Xu Jingming in disbelief.

Head-on collision? He lost?

The terrifying impact just now made Tiger Fussen's heart palpitate. The opponent's power and speed were too fierce.

Xu Jingming stood in place, looking at Tiger Fussen, and said, "Please go all out, show me your strongest ultimate move. Otherwise, you won't last three moves!"

"Worthy of being Xu Jingming." Tiger Fussen nodded. According to normal strategy, he should look for an opportunity to unleash a killing blow for a guaranteed kill! But Xu Jingming was too fierce and domineering. Normal moves were useless, and he had to fight desperately.

Xu Jingming was pursuing more than just victory.

He also hoped to use this rare peak battle to hone his spear techniques and improve them! Every heart-stirring battle in the 'World Martial Arts Tournament' helped improve his skills. He had to seize every opportunity to improve himself so that he could go further on the path of evolution.

"Boom." Tiger Fussen took the initiative to charge this time. Xu Jingming stood in place, waiting for the opponent to approach before suddenly stepping forward to meet him.

"Clang—"

The swinging axe collided with the upward-thrusting spear.

Xu Jingming's spear rotated, and the upward thrust turned into a stab! Tiger Fussen's other axe was already prepared, blocking the path. Because he only needed to protect his head!

Clang clang clang!!!

The weapons collided rapidly as the two moved.

Each swing of Tiger Fussen's axe was comparable to the ultimate move he used to defeat Haru Singh, extremely fast. His defense also dissipated the force in layers! The fierce attack and the solid defense, the two large axes worked together to fight against the ferocious spear.

Xu Jingming also displayed his spear techniques to the fullest, blocking, seizing, shattering, lifting, splitting, sweeping, stabbing, flicking… all kinds of spear techniques were as fast as lightning, one move after another, giving Tiger Fussen no chance to breathe.

Each collision of weapons between the two also stirred up shockwaves, affecting the surroundings, and the snowflakes exploded again and again.

The two fought like gods and demons.

Countless people around the world watched nervously, especially the citizens of Xia and the White Eagle Federation, who hoped that their own expert would win.

…

"This is the strength of Xu Jingming and Tiger Fussen." The live broadcast also showed slow-motion replays of the battle, allowing countless viewers to see the fight clearly.

The three guests were also amazed.

"Tiger Fussen held back a lot when he defeated me." Haru Singh said, "This is his true strength now. It's indeed terrifying."

"His axe strikes are as fast as lightning. I definitely wouldn't be able to withstand them." Tu Ling also shook his head.

Yesalova watched in silence, secretly sighing: "The Blue Star Alliance let Madeline Logan and I participate to hone the first batch of experts after the global opening of the virtual world. But Tiano, Liu Hai, Xu Jingming, and Tiger Fussen, who are ranked in the top four, are not weaker than us."

If Tiger Fussen fought Madeline Logan, Tiger Fussen would most likely still win.

"The geniuses who are screened out after global opening are the real geniuses." Yesalova thought to herself.

…

Xu Jingming used many basic spear techniques to the fullest, wanting to kill his opponent with them.

"Refreshing, refreshing!" Xu Jingming also enjoyed the fight, "This Tiger Fussen's level of evolution is obviously not as good as mine, but after he uses his ultimate move and goes all out, he can fight me evenly. His two large axes cooperate with each other, and I can't break through."

Clearly, whether it was the lightning-fast axe strikes or the defense that dissipated force, they were all extremely profound mysteries of power operation.

"I've had enough fun. Let's end the battle with my best ultimate move." Xu Jingming also understood that he couldn't defeat Tiger Fussen with basic moves. Then he would test his strongest ultimate move.

The Illusory Light Stance of the Five Ultimate Moves!

Swish!

Xu Jingming took a step and thrust his spear. Tiger Fussen immediately blocked, but then the second spear made Tiger Fussen startled, and then the third spear! The speed of the third spear was obviously faster, and Tiger Fussen managed to defend it with great difficulty. "How did Xu Jingming's spear technique become faster?"

The fourth and fifth spears were still extremely fast, and the sixth spear was even more terrifying.

Whoosh!

The axe barely touched it, and it grazed Tiger Fussen's hair.

The essence of the Illusory Light Stance was that the intervals between each thrust were very short, making it difficult for the enemy to breathe. Moreover, every three spears was a point of power gathering and eruption. The third, sixth, and ninth spears were constantly increasing in speed.

"Pfft!" Just as he barely blocked the eighth spear, a spear shadow pierced through the gap in the defense of his twin axes and pierced Tiger Fussen's throat.

Tiger Fussen's body began to turn into an illusion.

"What a fast spear technique." Tiger Fussen only felt that the pressure of the last few spears was getting stronger and stronger, and the ninth spear was even more terrifying.

"My Illusory Light Stance still needs to be more decisive." Xu Jingming reflected on the scene of the fight, "It's simple to hit targets in the training ground. But when I encounter top experts, the opponent either dissipates the force or transfers it. The contact time between each of my spears and the enemy must be shorter and more decisive."

While Xu Jingming was reflecting, the entire snowy scene collapsed, his body also became illusory, and he returned to the battle space.
