Chapter 211 A Battle That Seems Intense
Meng Yanqing really wanted to shout that out.
I really want to.
"YuYu—Help me!!"
These words were so close to her throat that she could almost taste the shape of the characters on her tongue.
however--
As a proud master beast tamer, he forcefully suppressed those words.
She, Meng Yanqing, is the direct descendant of the Meng family, one of the four marquises of Yuelan Prefecture; the youngest ultimate beast tamer in Yuelan Prefecture's history; and the highly anticipated master of the Myriad Blades Returning to Ruins Lotus.
If I were to actually shout that out during the league semi-finals, in front of billions of viewers in Lanzhou...
Just imagining that scene sent chills down her spine.
The post-match highlights will repeatedly expose her cowardly behavior.
The live chat will be flooded with comments like, "Is this all there is to Ultimate Beastmaster?"
The comments section will be flooded with screenshots of her previous outrageous remarks, accompanied by a laughing emoji covering her mouth.
"Weren't you going to beat up Princess Lightning?"
"Are you even worthy of being someone's opponent?"
"How embarrassing for an Ultimate-level being chased and beaten by a Perfect-level being!"
It's not simply about dying in a college or a city, but about dying forever in the entire Yue Lanzhou, on the land of her birth.
No.
Absolutely not.
but--
Being beaten to death by Lei Ying like that is hardly a dignified ending.
Even if you get chased and killed by a fully-level pet, you'll still be ridiculed after the match.
She didn't want to lose.
I don't want to die either.
What should we do then?
There is only one answer—
Xue Youyou took the initiative to make a move.
If Xue Youyou were to intervene and get involved in her battle with Lei Ying, things would be different.
In the post-match interview, she could frown and put on a "I'm very unhappy" expression, and say to the camera: "To be honest, I was a little unhappy that Youyou interfered in my one-on-one fight with Lei Ying. I was planning my killing move, and her interference completely messed it up."
That way, you save face.
Viewers will say, "Oh, so Meng Yanqing had a backup plan!"
"Xue Youyou is too hasty. How could an ultimate form possibly fail repeatedly!"
Viewers would assume that it was because Manluo crashed in the previous match that Xue Youyou became flustered due to her concern.
Yes, that's it.
Youyou, you must receive my feelings!
Meng Yanqing prayed silently for the last second.
Then--
Her great escape began.
Princess Lightning, Lei Ying, transformed into a bolt of lightning and arrived in an instant.
Her speed can no longer be described as "fast." It is pure, unreasonable, and almost instantaneous speed. When she moves, even the retina cannot capture any afterimage; one can only see her figure coalescing from the lightning the instant she stops.
Meng Yanqing didn't have time to think.
Any thought at this point is a waste of time and could be fatal.
She could only act on instinct.
Instinctively switching roles between human and pet.
Swap positions with a randomly selected flying sword in the distance.
Princess Lightning, Lei Ying, appeared where she had just been. The lightning ball in her hand exploded, making the flying sword that had taken the hit for her buzz loudly.
Undeterred by her failed attack, Lei Ying vanished once more, reappearing in Meng Yanqing's new location. Lightning crackled around her, arcs of electricity surging and spreading like snakes.
Meng Yanqing didn't think at all; immediately after the position change, she randomly switched positions again.
Change again, chase again, change again, chase again—
A flash of lightning.
A green shadow.
Two beams of light leaped, weaved, and chased each other wildly within the Thousand Swords Formation.
Ten thousand flying swords spun rapidly around the lotus body, forming an impenetrable cage of blades. Within the cage, two figures transformed into countless afterimages, constantly flashing, disappearing, and reappearing between the swords.
The audience was dazzled.
In the vast stadium, almost all the audience members stared wide-eyed at the panel shots on the big screen. The left panel showed the Snow Woman's towering figure, as majestic as a mountain, while the right panel showed the breathtakingly fast-paced chase within the Thousand Swords Formation.
however--
No one could clearly see what had happened.
That's right, because the speed was just too fast. Although Meng Yanqing was just running away in a sorry state, from the audience's perspective, they couldn't see it at all. They could only see two streaks of light darting around, looking like they were fighting back and forth, and the battle was very intense.
"What...what exactly is going on now?"
"Who's chasing whom?"
"It's almost blinding me!"
"It seems like Princess Lightning is pursuing Meng Yanqing?"
"That can't be right, it's clearly Meng Yanqing chasing after Princess Shanlei..."
"Are you stupid? Why would a beast tamer chase after a pet beast?"
"..."
The audience members were whispering amongst themselves, intensely discussing who should go up and who should go down.
In the commentary booth, Bao Xiaoxing blinked, momentarily pausing in his commentary.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but the two beams of light on the big screen were moving too fast for her eyes to keep up.
All she could see was a pale purple bolt of lightning and a cyan figure leaping wildly across the screen, sometimes overlapping, sometimes separating, sometimes drawing a strange zigzag line, and sometimes suddenly bursting out with a blinding light in a corner of the sword formation.
"The current situation is..."
Bao Xiaoxing's voice showed a rare hesitation.
She blinked hard, trying to discern which of the two wildly flickering lights was in control, but—
It's so hard.
It's really giving the commentators a headache.
If only Xue Youyou were still here.
"Meng Yanqing is constantly using her pet to switch positions! Her figure is rapidly changing locations within the Myriad Swords Formation!"
After watching for more than ten seconds, Bao Xiaoxing finally found a point of interpretation, and his voice became excited again: "And Princess Lightning is hot on her heels! Her speed is still unparalleled! This is a contest of speed against speed! It's a—"
Although his eyes hurt from the flashing lights, Bao Xiaoxing still diligently watched the constantly flickering battle scenes.
"...It's an unpredictable battle!"
