As soon as Cheng Xiao spoke.

The entire venue was in an uproar!

Ah?

A Thunder Forbidden Curse, wasn't that already Lin Yi's ultimate trump card??

Isn't it being exaggerated a bit too much?!

Hayakawa Tomoko's face stiffened.

She clearly thought the same.

But considering it was Cheng Xiao who said it, she could only ponder the meaning of those words herself.

Was it pre-match psychological warfare, or was it because of his unwillingness to lose, so he exaggerated Lin Yi's combat strength?

In any case, ultimately, Hayakawa Tomoko still couldn't persuade herself to believe that the strength Lin Yi had currently displayed was still just the tip of the iceberg.

Are you kidding? Could he possibly have more Forbidden Curses in different elements?

Soon, all the judges on the judging panel successively gave their scores.

Lin Yi directly received a perfect score of 10 points this round.

No one gave a low score.

In the end, the impact of the Forbidden Curse was simply too strong.

Mitsui Shigemasa, who won the first battle, also received a high score of 9.3 points.

The last was Guo Yinglong, due to the weak opponent.

He ended up with a score of less than 7 points.

With the scoring complete, the fourth match that everyone had been waiting for began.

Su Wa walked barefoot onto the ring, hands together in a prayer gesture, and bowed to Xiangze Zhaofu, the third position contestant from East Japan standing opposite him.

Xiangze Zhaofu, standing across from him, wasn't so polite.

"Black monk, reaching the top eight already counts as your good luck."

"I won't hold back later."

Su Wa's expression was as calm as an ancient well, without responding in any way to Xiangze Zhaofu's provocation.

He merely closed his eyes and rotated the Buddhist beads in his hand, chanting Buddhist scriptures.

Neither of them used charging skills.

After the 10-second countdown was over.

A purple smoke dispersed beside Xiangze Zhaofu, and then his figure disappeared.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—!

Although Xiangze Zhaofu's figure couldn't be seen, the sound of the wind on the ring told everyone.

He was moving at high speed.

The mobility of the Ninja profession is quite high after all.

The next moment, three figures that were identical to Xiangze Zhaofu in appearance and aura broke out from the shadows.

Shadow clones.

This is also a signature skill of the special profession system ninja from East Japan.

The fastest clone, holding a poisoned kunai, fiercely stabbed at Su Wa's heart from behind.

The other two clones, meanwhile, furiously formed seals in the air.

"Fire Escape: Great Fireball Skill!"

Ding!

The kunai stabbed at Su Wa's vital spot in the back.

But it emitted a sound similar to a clash between metal and iron.

It didn't break the defense!

At the same time, the two clones using the fire escape spewed large amounts of flame from their mouths.

Still causing no harm to Su Wa.

"Smelly monk, are you a turtle?"

"What will you do when I use multiple shadow clones?"

The next moment, the clones that were surrounding Su Wa instantly multiplied to over twenty.

Lin Yi shook his head.

You call this multiple?

The ninjutsu isn't well learned at all.

In the confusion and distractions created by these over twenty clones.

Yet Xiangze Zhaofu's true body remained in shadow stealth mode.

Not exposed.

Of course, it's only that he thought he wasn't exposed.

The next moment, he suddenly felt a strong wind brewing before him.

Su Wa's dark and strong figure had already flashed before him.

Pu!

Like a watermelon bursting open, Su Wa, with just a simple straight punch.

Splattered Xiangze Zhaofu's head, while he was still in stealth mode.

A large amount of blood and brain matter was scattered across the ring.

Flashy and flamboyant, yet destroyed with one punch.

Xiangze Zhaofu, dead.

The battle concluded.

One lethal strike, quick and ruthless.

Because the ring was restored by Cheng Xiao, the event organizers didn't even have time to re-install the Life Maintenance Array.

In fact, even if it were installed.

To several monsters in the top eight.

It would still be useless.

Su Wa remained with his eyes closed, flicking his right arm.

Directly evaporating the bloodstains on his arm with high heat.

Then, with hands together, he bowed to the audience and the referee commentators below the stage.

Then slowly walked off the stage.

Lin Yi was slightly astonished inside.

Although Xiangze Zhaofu was weak, he could have been easily defeated by him too.

His speed, alertness, and defense weren't actually that low.

Yet was killed with a single strike.

Su Wa didn't even use a skill.

Previously, in his several matches, he had always been this direct in taking down opponents.

Interesting...

It seems this Su Wa is more of a true stat monster.

And his combat experience far surpasses that of Zhou Xinyu.

Clearly, he, like me and Mitsui Shigemasa, still has trump cards unrevealed.

In the end, Su Wa also received a high score of 9.1 points.

All top eight battles concluded.

The three main referees took the stage again.

The final four drawing began.

The semi-finals have already formed a situation of one super, two strong, and one regular person.

The "super" naturally refers to Lin Yi.

Possessing a Forbidden Curse, Lin Yi is undoubtedly the top on paper in strength.

The only regular person is Guo Yinglong.

Mitsui Shigemasa and Su Wa both look like monsters.

Wow—!

As soon as the first draw for the semi-finals was made, the audience erupted into gasps of surprise.

Because the drawn number was 001!

Lin Yi will appear in the first match of the semi-finals!

Lin Yi's image was displayed on the large screen.

His opponents, Mitsui Shigemasa and Su Wa.

Both had very serious expressions.

"Isn't this sense of pressure coming immediately?"

"Haha, let's see who the unlucky one is to face this Great Demon King."

"Could the person drawn just surrender on the spot?"

"Honestly, I feel only Mitsui Shigemasa might have a slight chance of making Lin Yi the Great Demon King take it seriously."

"Others might as well go take a shower directly."

As everyone awaited the result of the second draw.

Lin Yi keenly noticed.

In the Savadika Kingdom's section.

Su Wa stood up.

Facing him, he made a prayer sign and bowed.

The intention seemed to say, please give me your advice.

Then he left the player area, heading backstage.

Simultaneously, the draw result was revealed.

Contestant number: 041!

The silhouette of Lin Yi's opponent on the large screen displayed Su Wa with closed eyes.

"The first battle of the semi-finals!"

"Will feature Xia Team's captain Lin Yi against Savadika Kingdom's captain Su Wa!"

"It's an ultimate Body Skill versus ultimate Magic showdown!"

Lin Yi watched Su Wa disappear down the passageway.

Deep in thought.

He seemed capable of foreseeing short-term futures too?

Before the draw results were out, he already knew that he was Lin Yi's opponent.

Lin Yi shelved his slight disregard towards this tournament's super dark horse.

If he acts too arrogantly, he might really have a chance to lose tomorrow.

The opponents for the first match were determined.

The second match was self-evident.

Lin Yi and Guo Yinglong stood up, and returned to their team's resting room.

"Captain, go for it!"

"Vice-captain, go for it!"

The youngest Guan Xingwu saw Lin Yi and Guo Yinglong return.

Promptly spoke up.

"The captain probably doesn't need any encouragement to win."

"As for me, even with encouragement, I'm likely to lose..."

Guo Yinglong chuckled wryly.

Zhao Enquan: "We have 2 members in the final four."

"As long as Lin Yi wins tomorrow, the two reward spots for ranks and points are basically secure."

"Mr. Guo, fighting against Mitsui Shigemasa is too dangerous, why don't you just..."

Guo Yinglong shook his head before Zhao Enquan could finish: "Mr. Zhao, there's no reason to fear showing your sword when facing a strong enemy."

"Even if it means death, I won't surrender."
