After the third match was announced.
Actually, there's no need for a draw for the fourth match.
But the referee still went through the procedure.
The fourth battle is Su Wa VS East Japan's third position player Xiangze Zhaofu.
...
The next day.
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Penglai Arena, quarterfinals, officially begins!
"Rina~!"
"Ganbatte~!"
"Rina Rina, super cute~!"
The audience was holding large and small pink banners, with some waving support sticks, continually cheering for Uehara Rina on stage.
Uehara Rina's appearance was flawless.
Not only was her figure curvy, but her face was also in the style that many otaku loved, the kawaii style.
More importantly, she had an unforgettable, beautiful singing voice.
In her own words, being an illusionist was just a profession.
Being a super idol was her life.
She even announced her participation in this year's Pan-Asian Youth Professional Peak Competition at her concert tour.
That's why the entire audience was extremely lively now.
"Ms. Uehara Rina's popularity is unmatched in this arena!"
"Um... Rina, after the match, could you give me an autograph, actually, um... I'm also a loyal fan~!"
Ah Liang's eyes were almost sparkling with peach blossoms.
"Of course, that's no problem~!"
"That's wonderful!"
"But the match is about to start, do you have anything to say regarding your opponent today, your captain?"
Uehara Rina struck her classic pose with one hand on her hip, causing cheers from the audience.
Then she looked towards Mitsui Shigemasa on the other side of the ring.
"Captain Mitsui, Rina won't show mercy~."
"Idols can't admit defeat easily!"
Mitsui Shigemasa didn't react.
Facing the microphone handed to him, he also didn't speak.
But anyone could see, he was much more emotionally stable today.
Not as agitated as yesterday.
If Pei Junxi exposed his true self as "crazy",
Then Mitsui Shigemasa at this moment was truly "cold".
His eyes had no one else in them.
Everything seemed irrelevant, unimportant.
Below the stage, Lin Yi's heart moved.
Others didn't notice, but Lin Yi saw the clues.
Indeed, this century idol was not simple.
The competition explicitly prohibits using skills before the countdown starts.
But she still violated this rule.
Previously, Guan Xingwu said he didn't know when he fell into the illusion, now it's solved.
Perhaps he fell into the illusion just as he stepped onto the stage.
Uehara Rina's method of casting is "sound".
Of course, not the sounds audible to human ears, but an ultrasonic frequency that vibrates more than tens of thousands of times.
This type of ultrasound was hidden in her recent normal communication.
Then it purposefully penetrated the opponent's ears.
Letting them unknowingly fall into the trap.
However, at this point, the illusion has not officially exploded; the victim still retains normal vision, hearing, and can receive regular information.
By the time the match starts and they become alert, it's already too late.
"1!"
"Match start!"
As the countdown ended.
Uehara Rina curled her lips into a slight smile.
"Captain dear, don't blame Rina~"
"Admit defeat obediently!"
Illusion technique, activate!
When facing Guan Xingwu before, she had made him voluntarily admit defeat right at the start.
And deliberately didn't dispel the illusion, wanting him to sleep forever.
Until dying in his dreams.
But now, several seconds have passed.
Mitsui Shigemasa remained unmoved.
With no intention of voluntarily admitting defeat.
Uehara Rina was startled.
Could it be her illusion didn't succeed?
No, she clearly just did...
"Rina, you've regressed."
Suddenly, a cold voice exploded by Uehara Rina's ear.
"Father… Father-sama?"
In front of her, Mitsui Shigemasa's image turned into a stern middle-aged man.
"You have greatly disappointed me."
This time, Uehara Rina also heard the ten thousand audience below the stage speak in unison.
Uttering this sentence.
The sky unknowingly turned dark, leaving only a blood moon.
Everyone in the audience also had a ghastly deathly expression.
Their eyes fixated straight on Uehara Rina.
Repeating the phrase "You have greatly disappointed me".
Uehara Rina realized in shock.
She had fallen into an illusion?!
When did this happen...
However, no matter how much she struggled, she couldn't wake up.
...
"Mr. Uehara...?"
"Rina, don't!"
Ah Liang shouted heartbreakingly.
Because right after the match started, the super idol Uehara Rina, in front of over a hundred thousand live audience members and tens of millions of broadcast viewers.
Tore off her skirt.
She wasn't even wearing safety shorts today.
Then she lay on the ground, eyes rolling back, drooling, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.
She kept imitating a cat.
"Meow~!"
"Meow meow meow~!"
Ah Liang felt as if his goddess's image had completely collapsed.
He couldn't even imagine how much negative news this would bring her.
And the audience below, after their initial shock.
Countless fans actually took out their phones.
And started recording the scene in the ring.
Once they accepted this scenario...
How could they become more excited?
...
This illusion duel ended quickly.
Because Uehara Rina's manager couldn't bear to watch any longer.
Crying and begging the East Japan team leader to help forfeit the match.
Even after leaving the stage, Uehara Rina still felt like she was a cat.
Meanwhile, onstage, Mitsui Shigemasa.
Once again profoundly shocked all other contestants.
Uehara Rina's illusion technique prowess.
Is considered among the top of the younger generation throughout East Japan.
Yet Mitsui Shigemasa can also use illusions.
And could unknowingly trap someone of Uehara Rina's caliber of illusionist.
Yesterday's instant victory.
Today's illusion.
This strongest young fighter in all of East Japan.
What could he possibly not do?
Facing him in future rounds means first handling his illusions, qualifying to face his diverse and terrifying other methods!
"Sss...."
In the Goryeo contestants' seats.
Revealing his true nature completely.
The unmasked Pei Junxi.
Looking at Mitsui Shigemasa, licked his lips.
Wants to eat.
After devouring this meal, Lin Yi.
Consider Mitsui Shigemasa as the dessert.
This competition is simply marvelous.
A bit hard to wait for!
The second match.
Started quickly.
An internal battle of Xia.
The stats monster Zhou Xinyu faced the vice-captain Guo Yinglong.
Zhao Enquan instructed both not to forfeit immediately.
Although the organizers didn't specify.
But such behavior is against the spirit of sportsmanship.
So both gave their all directly.
Zhou Xinyu, who previously didn't understand how excessive Lin Yi's BUFF was against Jin Meihui.
Could only scream and flee.
Now she knew she was a stats monster.
And proactively cast spells attacking Guo Yinglong.
Meanwhile, Guo Yinglong took out dual pistols, using extremely dazzling techniques to dodge Zhou Xinyu's attacks while finding chances to counterattack.
Usually, only roaming gunslinger professions use pistols.
But Guo Yinglong, the heavy gunner, wielded pistols as well.
Moreover, each of his shots was as powerful as heavy artillery.
This was thanks to his talents.
On one side was extreme stats.
On the other was unparalleled skill.
Ultimately, Guo Yinglong's refined combat techniques earned him the victory.
Over 20 minutes of high-speed movement, shooting, and dodging.
He didn't take a single hit.
But delivered thousands of attacks.
Zhou Xinyu's health eventually bottomed out, and every time she tried to heal, she'd get interrupted.
With no choice, she had to concede.
This battle was possibly the most exhilarating for the audience since the start of the competition.
Even after it ended, they relished discussing it.
And just when everyone was still reflecting on the previous fight.
Today's third match.
Also highly anticipated, at finals-level intensity, quietly began.
Pei Junxi and Lin Yi took the stage.
The whole venue gradually quieted down.
The true peak duel, the ace showdown is here!
