Chapter 2332
This change was very shocking. His speed and attack power had doubled in an instant, and the sound of the explosion was rather ear-piercing.
Gasps of surprise rang out in the quiet surroundings.
This scene clearly showed that Hotettur had been holding back in the previous battle, or rather, he had not displayed the full strength of a third rank hunter.
He had been fighting like a cat toying with a mouse, and now, he was obviously tired of it, so he was really going all out.
Could his opponent still block it?
At this moment, such a guess appeared in everyone's hearts one after another.
Faced with this attack, Zi Chen did not dodge. Instead, he unsheathed the broken sword that had never been unsheathed before. With a speed that was not inferior to his opponent's, he placed the broken sword horizontally in front of him and blocked the attack.
Clang!
When the blades met, there was a loud clang and sparks flew everywhere.
This time, neither of them retreated. They were competing with their own strength.
Sensing that his strength was not inferior to his own, Hotettur stared at Zi Chen with a hint of surprise.
Zi Chen's expression was as cold as before.
"Third rank, he's also a third rank hunter!"
A cry of surprise rang out from the crowd. After that cry of surprise, another uproar rang out.
"Third rank, I didn't expect him to be a third rank hunter!"
"He looks so young, I didn't expect him to be a third rank hunter."
Following the uproar, Xiu Qi and the other three, who had been extremely nervous, could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Although they did not know when Zi Chen had become a third rank hunter, they were still happy for Zi Chen.
During this period of time, they had a certain understanding of Zi Chen's combat strength. Perhaps Hotettur was very strong and had many glorious achievements, but Zi Chen was definitely not weaker than him.
"We were wrong, he's actually a third rank hunter!" One of the two middle-aged men who had been with Lin Sai said.
"Looking at his age, his potential seems to be greater than Hotettur's," the other man said.
"Why, you want to invite him?" Lin Sai looked at the two men and asked in surprise.
"There's only one spot, whoever lives gets it!"
… …
… …
The real battle had only begun at this moment.
When the blades met, they split apart with a piercing sound. During this time, both of them had used their full strength. The moment the blades separated, a cold killing intent flashed in both of their eyes at the same time. Then, in an instant, they attacked with their blades.
"Shua!" "Shua!" "Shua!" "Shua!"
The two of them were like two beams of light, constantly chasing and attacking. They struck, swept, and chopped. All kinds of saber moves appeared.
Aside from attacking, the two of them were also competing in terms of speed.
"The Ultimate Blade!"
A black saber arc appeared and swept past Hotettur's body, instantly chopping his body into pieces.
However, that was only an afterimage left behind by the other party's rapid movement.
Then, Zi Chen's figure flickered and appeared on the other side. The same Blade Arc swept past the place where he had been standing.
Due to the extreme speed of the two people fighting in the field, no one could see where their real bodies were.
What they saw were almost all afterimages. One by one, the images appeared and disappeared, constantly disappearing.
In the eyes of the crowd, the two people fighting had already disappeared. Only afterimages and saber arcs were left.
However, the saber arcs were both short and long. Relying on this, the two of them could see whose afterimage it was.
Those people who had been disdainful of Zi Chen gradually put away their contempt. To be able to fight with Hotettur for so long was enough to prove the other party's strength.
"Pu!" "Pu!" "Pu!"
The slightly longer saber arcs flashed quickly. The shorter ones seemed to slow down, and the frequency of flashing gradually decreased.
Several sounds rang out. Strips of cloth fell from the sky and were then cut into several pieces by the two saber arcs.
The sharp-eyed people had already seen that the robe was black. It belonged to the person who had fought with Hotettur. It belonged to a latecomer.
"Shua!"
Without waiting for them to guess what had happened on the battlefield, they saw the two figures of light separate, creating a distance of ten meters.
Hotettur stood there unscathed. His breathing had become hurried. Sweat dripped from his forehead, wetting his clothes.
There were no obvious wounds on his body. Only a section of his sleeve was torn.
Across from him, Zi Chen's body clearly had several more wounds. His clothes were also incomplete. Dark red bloodstains could be seen in the torn areas.
In the quiet surroundings, cheers rang out once more. It was clear that in this battle, Hotettur clearly held the upper hand.
In this regard, Xiu Qi and the others were not worried. They even felt a bit of disdain in their hearts.
They understood Zi Chen. They knew that Zi Chen's true speed had yet to be completely revealed. At this moment, he was only slightly slower than Hotettur. Once he used his true speed, Hotettur would inevitably be at a disadvantage.
"Unfortunately, I am also very good at speed.
Even more unfortunately, your speed is slower than mine. "
Hotettur looked at Zi Chen and sneered. "Oh, there is one more point where I have the advantage. My endurance is greater than yours. You should have consumed quite a bit of it."
"That's nothing."
Zi Chen lowered his head to look at the wounds on his body. They were all superficial wounds. Not a single one was fatal.
Hotettur's speed was actually not as fast as his, but he was at a disadvantage because his cultivation base was lower.
Zi Chen took out a jade bottle and immediately swallowed a drop of Sacred Origin Liquid.
Using something like this to awaken an ability to recover energy at this moment was undoubtedly a waste of a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
The smile on Hotettur's face did not fade. He also swallowed a drop of Sacred Origin Liquid. His advantage was not too obvious for the time being, so he could not be too careless.
"If you don't have any other tricks up your sleeve, this battle will end in a very short time!" Hotettur gripped his blade with both hands as his expression gradually turned ice-cold.
"This is what I was prepared to say to you."
Zi Chen gripped the broken blade with one hand and charged forward, his figure like a ray of light.
"Righteous Blade Net!"
With a low shout, Hotettur's figure disappeared. Instead, a dense net of blades appeared, bringing with it an unstoppable might as it flew towards Zi Chen.
Zi Chen was like a fish or a bird that had encountered a large net falling from the sky. There was no way out.
"Cross Blade Art!"
Zi Chen swung the broken blade in his hand, forming a cross blade arc in front of him.
This was not a casual strike, but the second move of the Nine Extreme Blade Art. It was even more powerful than the Pinnacle Blade Art.
Space seemed to be sliced open by this strike. The cross blade art instantly expanded and met the blade net.
With a series of cracking sounds, the net of blades spread out from the middle and split into four parts, moving to the sides.
At the same time, the cross blade arc continued to advance in a straight line, its target being Hotettur.
Whoosh!
The split blade net disappeared, and the long blade appeared once again, blocking the cross blade arc. A clanging sound rang out as Hotettur's figure retreated.
But as he retreated, his eyes were fixed on Zi Chen, a sinister smile on his face.
"Pa!"
Zi Chen's robe split open, revealing a web-like wound on his chest. Blood flowed out from the wound.
This injury was not fatal, but it was shocking. If he had been faster and more ruthless, Zi Chen's body would have been torn apart by this strike.
On the ground, Hotettur, who had retreated close to the ground, left behind two deep ravines.
He stood at the end of the ravine, looking at Zi Chen and saying, "Three moves. In three moves, your body will be completely separated by the blade net!
The battle will be over in three moves! "
Such confident words caused cheers to ring out from the crowd.
"This guy is really strong. He even forced Tuhr to use the Heavenly Blade Net. This should be his strongest move so far. If he can block it, Tuhr will not be able to do anything to him."
"His cross blade art can easily break the blade net. It should be a very strong blade art. Unfortunately, his speed is still his weakness.
If he meets other third-level hunters, he may be able to win. But against Tuhr, who is good at speed, he has almost no chance of winning.
Unless, his speed is faster than Tuhr's! "
No one thought that Zi Chen could be faster than Hotettur, because he was good at speed. This was also the main reason why their forces invited him to join.
This battle seemed to be over now. Hotettur also said that he only needed three moves to kill Zi Chen.
"Three moves?"
Zi Chen looked at Hotettur and smiled coldly. Then he stretched out a finger and said, "One move. This battle will be over in one move!"
"Although it's a little difficult, maybe I can really kill you after one move!" Hotettur sneered.
After that, he rushed forward with his blade, faster than before.
"Heavenly Blade Net!"
The saber net, which was denser and stronger than before, appeared once again, wanting to envelop Zi Chen within it.
Buzz!
Zi Chen's body suddenly burst with a strong light. His speed, which was already very fast, more than doubled at this moment.
His speed was like a real stream of light. Before the blade net could envelop him, he went around it from the other side and arrived in front of Hotettur.
This scene happened so fast that it was beyond everyone's expectations. Even the eyes could not catch the changes.
"Cross Blade Art!"
Zi Chen's cold voice sounded. The cross blade arc appeared outside the blade net and went toward Hotettur, who was close at hand.
Under such circumstances, Hotettur showed extraordinary adaptability. He dodged to the side, and the blade net in front of him disappeared in an instant. Then he blocked in front of him with his long blade.
These movements were almost done in one breath. His reaction could be said to be very timely.
However, compared to Zi Chen, he was much slower this time. When he used his long blade to block in front of him, the cross blade arc had already reached the back of the long blade in his hand and swept past his forehead.
Puff!
The blade arc cut through Hotettur's body, leaving a cross mark between his eyebrows. Blood flowed from the wound.
