Chapter 588: Worth it?
After the drawing of lots, Jiang Xiao flipped through the thick stack of information about s.h.i.+nkou Saito under the guidance of the two a.n.a.lysts in the morning.
Tomorrow’s battle will be very interesting.
[Civil War in Western Europe: will VS Lancy]
[Nordic Civil War: Iceland VS North Road.]
[Asian Civil War: China VS j.a.pan.]
Jiang Xiao flipped open the information sheet and saw the fierce look in Saito’s eyes again.
Jiang Xiao carefully read through his detailed information. After all, he had already studied his star techniques thoroughly and remembered them by heart. Jiang Xiao suddenly said,””In other words, he left China when he was 15?”
One of the a.n.a.lysts nodded and said,”yes, it’s because of family reasons. In his third year of junior high, he followed his parents to j.a.pan.” I didn’t expect to awaken the star map during the graduation ceremony. ”
Jiang Xiao nodded thoughtfully and said,””He grew up in Jiangcheng city, the northern Hubei province. If I were to argue with him on the field, wouldn’t he be speaking in the northern Hubei province dialect?”
Fang Xingyun’s expression was strange as he reproached,””What are you focusing on?”
Jiang Xiao grinned and said,”I’ve already a.n.a.lyzed his star techniques, combat characteristics, and combat habits. Let’s a.n.a.lyze this person.” What’s his personality like?”
“Very cheerful,” the a.n.a.lyst said.”At least, he was very cheerful when he was in China and could get along with his cla.s.smates.
In the first and second years of junior high school, he would often sneak into the University of Jiangcheng with his cla.s.smates in March and April to see the famous cherry blossom Avenue. There are still many photos of him and his cla.s.smates on his social media now. ”
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and said,’so … He changed his subject and couldn’t see it anymore. So, he simply learned the cherry blossom territory STAR technique? You’re going to make yourself bloom?”
Fang Xingyun smiled.”There are many cherry blossoms in j.a.pan too. It’s just that those star techniques are very powerful.”
The a.n.a.lyst finally pulled the topic back and said,””Judging from his star techniques, your tears may lose its effect on him. He’s very fast, and his Tang sword technique is extremely powerful …”
The corners of Jiang Xiao’s lips curled up slightly, and his smile made Fang Xingyun feel at ease.
Jiang Xiao said,”I like those who are skilled. It’s a compet.i.tion of talent and hard work. If I were to be played like Juliet or King of sea burial, I’d be in for a really difficult time.”
……
Due to the fact that the venue of the compet.i.tion was in Edo city, Jiang Xiao didn’t have to travel. At around nineo’ clock that night, Jiang Xiao heard someone knocking on his door again.
Jiang Xiao initially thought that it would be hai Tianqing and Fang Xingyun. However, he didn’t expect to see sister pea when he opened the door …
At this critical juncture, no one would normally disturb the rest of the partic.i.p.ating students. What did she have to say?
Jiang Xiao moved away and strode into the living room. He then walked to the sofa and sat down.
Jiang Xiao tidied up his short-sleeved s.h.i.+rt and shorts. After confirming that there were no problems, he asked,””What is it? And you’re giving me the egg yolk pie?”
She then looked up at Jiang Xiao and said,””Don’t underestimate him. His bladesmans.h.i.+p is stronger than you think. ”
Jiang Xiao nodded in agreement.
In the past, Jiang Xiao had asked Zhao Wenlong for information about planet George. However, Zhao Wenlong had come uninvited to share his experience.
Mingming continued,”the cherry blossom territory is both illusory and real. Every cherry blossom is made up of star power. However, the star power distribution in the petals in his territory is not uniform. If you can feel the density of the star power petals, you can roughly understand the areas where he is most active in.”
Jiang Xiao nodded silently.
“You must use your star power to protect your giant blade,” Mingming continued.”The flowers thrown out by the blade have a very strong explosion.”
Jiang Xiao nodded again and stood beside the coffee table. He looked down at hou Mingming, who was deep in thought, and suddenly felt that she was a little cute.
She had already told Jiang Xiao everything that she had just said. She just wanted to tell him all the information that she thought was the most useful, hoping that he would succeed and not repeat her mistakes.
After thinking for a while, he continued,””Every time he was about to move at high speed, the right corner of his eyebrow would uncontrollably rise slightly.”
“Yes, yes.” Jiang Xiao listened to her instructions quietly, but he could clearly hear the regret and self-blame behind her words.
It seemed that she had studied Saito s.h.i.+nkou more than once during these days. Such behavior was a good thing for hou Mingming. She had really grown up after being able to see her failure correctly.
This might be the true meaning of the Star Warriors world Cup.
The proud sons of heaven would always recognize themselves and the reality here.
……
July 7th, 2017. Sunny.
j.a.pan, Edo National Stadium.
Jiang Xiao and n.o.buchi Saito were in the second group, which was the second Match of the Day and would start at about 10 O’ clock.
Although it was eight in the morning, the stadium was already a sea of red and blue.
The citizens of the two countries did not give the audience from the other countries a chance to watch the battle. In the stadium that could accommodate 50000 people, the west side was fiery red, and the east side was dark blue.
With the middle line as the dividing line, the people on both sides were so clearly divided that it made people click their tongues in wonder.
Only the viewing seats on both sides of the center line were filled with people from all over the world. It was more like a dividing line.
The Chinese people were indeed giving it their all. In the previous match in kimchi country, as Jiang Xiao waved his flag on the television, only a few Chinese people appeared. That scene made everyone feel uncomfortable.
And for this one, people used all kinds of methods to obtain precious tickets, just so that their children would not be bullied.
Even if this is the opponent’s home ground, we will still s.n.a.t.c.h half of the field!
It was noisy outside and Jiang Xiao was sitting in the players ‘locker room, watching the television.
There wouldn’t be any more games for the players from other countries, and the results of the games wouldn’t affect Jiang Xiao much. Besides, there was plenty of time for Jiang Xiao to get to know his next opponent in advance.
The first group’s compet.i.tion started at eighto’ clock and was held in qiuyu city of the pickle nation.
It was the captain of the northern kingdom, Aschen, against the Queen of the Ice Kingdom, Helen, who was also from Northern Europe.
Mage VS melee.
Beilu ash was also the only rules awakened left.
Jiang Xiao had been frowning and watching the television for a long time. The two Norse G.o.ds were both very irritable. Helen walked with Lotus-like steps and everywhere she pa.s.sed, ice flowers would bloom. The crystal-clear ice flowers looked extremely beautiful under the sunlight.
Beautiful things were always dangerous. Jiang Xiao knew that the ice flowers that bloomed could explode instantly. If hundreds or thousands of ice thorns were to shoot into one’s body, one would not find them beautiful.
Beilu ash held Thor’s hammer in one hand, as if he was imitating Saul. Bursts of electric current spread out and shattered the ice flowers blooming on the ground.
Ash had already transformed the interior of the iron cage into his home ground. The sky was filled with electric currents that appeared quietly from time to time, as if there were many small curved snakes.
As for melee fighter Helen, she turned all the gra.s.s into frost wherever she pa.s.sed. Sometimes, she could even hide her body in the thin layer of ice.
The start of the match was rather decent. When Helen finally got close to Aschen after much difficulty, an ice mirror was erected.
The tug-of-war between the two lasted for nearly three minutes. Helen tried everything she could to erect three ice mirrors.
Aschen of course knew what the other party was up to, and was determined to stop her formation from working.
These three minutes were almost h.e.l.l-like, and also the most b.l.o.o.d.y three minutes. The game between the two sides, from the body to the soul, left people dumbfounded.
At the 17th minute of the match, Helen clenched her teeth tightly. Her golden hair was messy and even a little burnt. In the end, she still erected three ice mirrors. This action was almost equivalent to stepping on Aschen’s face and announcing a fact: You can die now.
Soon, the three mirrors began to reflect many figures. The number quickly increased to six, then to twelve … When the two-minute countdown ended, an ice Mirror House quietly appeared.
Helen, who was agile, fast, and elusive, even used her actions to stop Aschen from casting his spell!
After 17 to 18 minutes of intense battle, the Queen of the glacier nation could finally taste the taste of victory …
However, Aschen was really violent and fierce.
When he had nowhere to run and was unable to defend against the rapid figures in the ice Mirror House, he did not choose to surrender, nor did he allow such a battle of attrition to continue.
Blood was flowing freely from his body, and he was groggily lying on the gra.s.s that was surrounded by ice. His mouth was biting the frozen green gra.s.s, and the armor made of lightning on his chest suddenly lit up with a dazzling light!
At the same time, Queen Helen’s backstab came from the mirror.
Hong long long …
“Oh my G.o.d!” Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
It was a mess on the TV screen.
It exploded, it exploded, it completely exploded …
An explosion of this level was not inferior to planet George ‘s.
Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but swallow his saliva and thought to himself, each one is more explosive than the last! Each one was fiercer than the last!
At this point, everyone’s strength was infinitely close. If they wanted to win, no one could hold back.
And the first match of the top six had started with a tragedy, sending a message to the world: Not every match would have a winner.
People like Star Warriors …
He was really using his life to fight for it.
Since the start of the World Cup, there had been a lot of deaths, but this time, it was undoubtedly the most touching event for Jiang Xiao.
What was the significance of the Star Warriors world Cup?
From an individual’s point of view, getting a good ranking and receiving honor was, of course, beneficial to personal development.
From the country’s point of view, there was no doubt that the contestants were showing off the strength of their country’s star Warriors in every round of the compet.i.tion.
And did this contestant from the northern kingdom really need to be so unyielding? He had already done very well … Was it so difficult to admit defeat?
Even if he had to die, he was unwilling to lose?
Aschen was clearly different from Crazy George.
Then, did he do it in a moment of impulse? Or was he defending something? Or was he trying to send a message to the world?
Was it worth it?
