Wu Yi, who had entered a state of liberation, didn't care about the struggle at all. He gently pushed the ground with his other hand and stood up holding Imai Xiaozhou with one hand.
"First of all, I must admit that your domain is indeed very tricky. I predicted that you would use your full strength to choke in order to make the fight quick and not put more strain on your body. But considering that it would be very troublesome if you could not react in time to the triangle choke combined with the domain, I forced you to use the triangle choke immediately and raise your hand to block in advance. As expected, you did not intend to engage in a protracted battle after missing the first blow. You immediately changed your posture and tried to drag me to the ground. Then, I lured you to use the wrist cross lock in a supine position, and you fell into the trap again... Now, no matter how fast you are, you can't dodge."
"!!!"
As Wu Yi finished speaking, Imai Xiaoyuko's eyes widened in horror.
He finally realized that from the very beginning, all his actions had been expected by the other party.
The weight difference, physical condition, and even mental state of both sides were taken into consideration.
Everything is under control!
No! We must fight back and break free immediately!
"I'm sorry, it's too late to react now, CIAO (goodbye)~"
After saying the last sentence, Wu Yi raised his arms high, grabbed Imai Xiaojue and slammed it to the ground.
In an instant, the ground collapsed and blood splattered everywhere.
Volume 616: Chapter When the Great Devil Starts to Use His Brain...
After a deafening roar, only one person was left standing on the field.
Wu Yi still held Imai Xiaoyuzhou's neck with one hand, while Imai Xiaoyuzhou, with his feet dangling in the air, had his head tilted to one side, his mouth slightly open and his eyes rolled up, as if he had lost consciousness.
Second……
Killed instantly?!
The mighty Strangler King was killed instantly with just one strike!
Looking at this scene on the field, some people were happy, some were surprised, some were sad, and some calmly accepted the fact that their fighter had lost.
At the entrance to the fighters' venue, Adam Dadoli gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
"Is it going to turn out like this in the end? Boy, he finally lost..."
"Ah, but there's nothing we can do about it."
Xipin Zhiming said lightly, took out a pack of cigarettes from the pocket of his trousers under his shirt, took out one of them, put it in his mouth, lit it with a lighter and took a puff.
"Xiaoyu went on the court with such a physique, while his opponent was in perfect condition. The difference in strength between the two sides was huge, so it was natural for him to lose the game. So I didn't expect to win from the beginning. But if Xiaoyu can learn something from this game, it will be worthwhile."
"Boss, you..."
Adam was stunned by these words.
He looked at Xipin Zhiming's calm face after he lost the game, and recalled how his former employer's face changed from flattery to contempt and even curse in just a few minutes when he lost in the first round. Suddenly, he inexplicably doubted whether he was in a science fiction movie.
As if he understood the former's gaze, Xipin Zhiming slowly exhaled a puff of smoke and explained to himself.
"To be honest, I also know Xiaoyu's master. I practiced in his dojo for a period of time before, so theoretically, Xiaoyu and I are still brothers. The so-called brothers are actually almost like brothers."
"Excuse me..."
At the same time, the referee, realizing that the fight on the field was over, immediately stepped forward to check on Imai's condition, then raised one hand and announced loudly.
"The winner has been decided! The winner is - 'Great Demon' Wu Yi!"
Is it over...
After taking a last look at Wu Yi's back as he gently put Imai's Cosmo back on the ground and then turned and left, Xipin Zhiming spoke to the medical staff of the Kengankai who had arrived behind him carrying a stretcher.
"...Then I'll leave it to you."
On the other side, Wu Yi, who advanced to the semi-finals without any injury, walked back to the audience seats with his hands in his pockets. He not only went to the toilet but also signed a few autographs.
In fact, to some extent, Kengan fighting artists are no different from the star players in the world's sports events. They all become famous by achieving good results in the competitions, and then they will have a certain group of supporters. If they are properly managed, they can make huge sums of money.
It’s just that most of the top boxing fighters don’t have enough time to devote to this aspect of operation.
For them, instead of spending time on fancy things, it would be better for them to improve their skills.
Wu Yi is no exception.
However, now that he has reached the semi-finals of the desperate elimination tournament, it is impossible for him not to become famous.
"You have successfully advanced to the semi-finals, congratulations."
At the participating company's table, Sakayanagi Arisu noticed Wu Yi's return and turned around and smiled.
"Although I thought this semi-final match would not be a problem at the beginning, I didn't expect it to go even smoother than expected."
"Well, after all, the other party is already in a wheelchair. If I can't easily solve it, I will have to use a wheelchair starting tomorrow..."
Wu Yi said as he sat down steadily next to the silver-haired girl, then propped up his chin on the armrest.
"In fact, I originally planned to play this match as a casual match. If it was carried out according to the normal schedule, it should be the third day. I will fight Lei'an in the morning, and then play a casual match in the afternoon to rest. But now that it has been moved to the last day, it doesn't matter. I can just treat it as a warm-up."
"Indeed, the next step is the real tough battle."
Sakayanagi Arisu said as he took out his phone and pulled up the schedule to take a look.
The next game is the second of the semi-finals, with the "Tiger" Wakatsuki Takeshi of Furumi Pharmaceutical facing off against the "Slayer" Muteba of Iwami Heavy Industries.
"Who do you think will win?"
"Wakatsuki."
"why?"
The white-haired Lolita blinked her eyes cutely, thinking that the answer was too quick, and she spoke it out without thinking it through.
Wu Yi went on to say, "There are two reasons. The first is that the Wakatsuki warrior poses too great a threat to Mutba. Even though the Wakatsuki warrior's skills are only second-rate, his damage is too high. If he is hit, it will cause serious or even irreversible consequences. Mutba is a professional mercenary. The purpose of professional mercenaries is to make money. They will not fight to the death with a big boss who may cost them their lives if they are not careful."
"That makes sense, so what's the second reason?"
"The second one is very simple. Mutba can't penetrate Wakatsuki's defense. Yang No showed me the video of Mutba fighting Uncle Guan Lin in the quarterfinals. He defeated Uncle Guan Lin with a heart-piercing finishing move just like me. However, this move didn't work against Wakatsuki's body with 52 times the muscle density. Instead, it would break his own fingers. But as for fighting head-on, that would be even more stupid."
"I see. So your opponent in the semi-finals will be..."
"Yes, it must be Wakatsuki Samurai." Wu Yi said confidently.
"So what are you going to do? Do you have any ideas?" Arisu Sakayanagi smiled.
"Almost, but before that I have some things to confirm..."
"No need, I've already checked for you~"
Before Wu Yi could finish her words, the voice of Yukinoshita Haruno came from behind.
Looking back, he saw the latter jogging up from the entrance of the auditorium with a cell phone in his hand. He came to Wu Yi and was about to hand it over. The screen showed a video that had been recorded not long ago.
"When you, Wu Yi, were competing, I went to have a quick chat with the president of Gu Hai Pharmaceutical. I also managed to take some shots of Wakatsuki Samurai. Take a look."
The girl showed off a little proudly and pulled the collar of her blazer with her hand.
There is a tiny camera disguised as a button on it.
"Thank you, let me take a look?" Wu Yi raised his eyebrows and clicked the play button.
The video is not long, and almost 80% of the time is focused on Furumi Hachihei, the president of Furumi Pharmaceutical, while Wakatsuki Takeshi only appears briefly in the last ten seconds.
But it was these last ten seconds of footage that allowed Wu Yi to successfully see the trick.
"Hmm, it seems that the Wakatsuki warrior's condition is similar to what I guessed. In that case..."
As he said this, he handed the phone back to Yukinoshita Haruno, then took out his own phone and dialed a number that he had recently added.
"Hello? Doctor Yingchu... Look, I want to borrow something from you."
Volume 617: Chapter Pre-War Review
The perspective leaves the stadium where the atmosphere is becoming increasingly heated as the second game of the semi-finals is about to begin.
In a secluded medical room in the conference venue, Wu Yi was sitting behind a large desk with a mobile phone propped up on a stand on the table in front of him.
He just faced the phone screen and kept poking himself with his fingers.
On the other side of the desk facing him, Ying Chu, wearing a white doctor's coat, was folding and putting away a poster-like detailed acupuncture point analysis chart of the human body. He looked up and saw Wu Yi trying something on such a small screen, and he couldn't help but pause.
"Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to watch it on such a small screen? If necessary, I can lend you this picture. Just return it to me before you leave this island."
"Yeah, it's okay, no need."
Wu Yi stared intently at the phone screen and continued to poke herself.
"To be precise, I knew these things before, but I haven't used them for so long that I've almost forgotten them, so I'm just picking them up and reviewing them now."
"I can understand that the Wu clan must have techniques similar to the Lingshu capture technique, but why would you suddenly think of reviewing it at this time?"
Yingchu picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, then cast his eyes to the side of the table.
It was a 43-inch wall-mounted LCD color TV hanging on the wall opposite the beds in the infirmary. Originally, there was a network cable connected from the bottom, but because Hayami Katsushima had destroyed the signal tower on the island in the previous coup, it has not been repaired until now, so now it can only connect to the island's local area network.
What is being broadcast live on the screen at this moment is the second game of the semi-finals that is about to take place in the stadium.
[The Slayer] Mutba Gizenga versus [The Tiger] Wakatsuki Samurai.
Both players have entered the court. Judging from their appearance, both sides are strong men over meters tall, so they should be evenly matched.
But considering that one of them has a monster with a muscle density 52 times that of an ordinary person, it is hard to say who will win this match.
"I see. It was prepared specially for that Wakatsuki samurai."
“That’s it in a nutshell.”
Wu Yi said this and changed his hand to continue poking at the body. His posture was just like Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs. Every time he poked, he would calm down and feel the effect of the acupoint, and then adjust the strength and angle accordingly.
"I watched the first two matches of that Wakatsuki Samurai. The first match was not very valuable for reference, but in the second match, his ability to withstand attacks was fully demonstrated. If it was an ordinary striking technique, it would be difficult to cause effective damage to him."
"Ah? Really?"
"……Um?"
Feeling the table shake, Wu Yi was stunned for a moment and then raised his head.
I saw Yingchu, who was sitting behind the desk watching TV calmly and peacefully a second ago, suddenly stood up with his hands on the table, with an interested expression on his face.
"Then can I understand your words as - even if the Wu family has been constantly evolving for 1,300 years, they still have no chance of winning against a naturally mutated monster?"
"That's not true..."
Wu Yi said "oh" and stopped what he was doing.
He also turned his eyes to the TV, and the game on the field outside had already begun.
Mutba, whose hearing was destroyed in both ears in the previous match with Jun Guanlin, seemed to have recovered some hearing. He immediately assumed a boxing jumping stance and fought with Wakatsuki Bushi.
"The main reason is still the same thing. I came to play this game to win the championship, not to beat someone specifically."
"To give you a simple example, it's like the fight between me and Raian. I knew there would be another match with Imai Cosmos afterwards, so I fought as recklessly as I could."
"By comparison, after I defeat the Wakatsuki Samurai today, I still have to face the Destroyer Fang or the Demon Lance. If I use up all my energy in the semifinals, the finals will be very troublesome, hmm..."
After thinking for a while, Wu Yi added another sentence.
"A negative example is Cosmo Imai who was severely injured and wheelchair-bound in the quarterfinals."
"Wow~ That's a really clear and concise example."
While the two were chatting, the battle between Mutba and Wakatsuki Bushi on the live TV broadcast shifted slightly at a certain point in time.
I saw that the Wakatsuki warrior, who had been using the normal full-contact karate stance at the beginning, actually changed to a reverse stance after one round of confrontation, placing his right fist, which is more powerful and has better control even for ordinary people, in front, while keeping his less convenient left fist at his side.
Yingchu hummed with a rising tone, as if he had realized something.
This was probably caused by the injury from the match with Julius in the quarterfinals... Wu Yi thought.
Through the high-precision cameras in the stadium, it can be clearly seen that there are subtle traces of repair on the entire right half of Wakatsuki Takeshi's face. It is obviously impossible to grow new skin in such a short time. It should be temporarily covered with artificial skin produced by Gu Hai Pharmaceutical.
However, the eyeballs cannot be replaced.
Therefore, the Wakatsuki warrior who has lost the vision in his right eye must change to this posture so that he can still have the maximum vision when he throws the back-hand powerful punch to drive the body. Otherwise, if this blow fails to completely deprive the opponent of his combat effectiveness and also loses his vision, he will be doomed.
There was nothing much to say, and the two sides started fighting again.
Muteba carefully dodged several right jabs from the Wakatsuki warrior, then dodged a powerful left straight punch and wanted to move forward to pierce the heart.
But he didn't expect that this powerful left-handed straight punch was actually a feint.
After swinging, the Wakatsuki warrior immediately retracted his elbow to his chest, blocking the piercing heart while throwing a straight punch with his right hand that had just finished the jab.
The unexpected attack made Muteba unable to dodge and he was hit in the abdomen.
The next moment, accompanied by a sound that was completely unlike a physical collision, the stadium was filled with the sound, and the legendary mercenary from Congo, Africa, flew backwards in an extremely embarrassed posture, with the blood flowing from his mouth forming a ribbon in the air.
