That night, in the stands of China’s official livestream, Xu Jingming and his girlfriend, Li Miaomiao, watched this battle that attracted the attention of the entire world.
Miyagawa ishin versus Tiger Fussen!
The popularity of this battle even exceeded that of Xu Jingming versus Alan! After all, Tiger Fussen had never been matched in Global Crossfire. Without Liu Hai, Tiger Fussen—who was ranked second on the Cosmos Ranking—was the most famous.
Even if China’s citizens were very confident in Xu Jingming, they didn’t have full confidence on the question of who was stronger between him and Tiger Fussen; they felt that they would only know after a fight!
Miyagawa ishin, on the other hand, had won consecutive battles. Coupled with his 17 years of age, many people around the world began to believe that his talent might be world number one! He might be a genius that surpassed Tejano Xire.
Miyagawa ishin and Tiger Fussen had arranged a public battle, and more than 100 countries around the world were live-streaming it! More than 3.5 billion people were watching.
“It’s starting.” Xu Jingming and Li Miaomiao watched the livestream of the battle.
The combat map was the forest.
In the post-rain forest, Tiger Fussen—who cultivated Giant Bear Evolution to Transcendent—had his originally stocky and muscular physique beco even more astonishing. His height reached 2.35 ters, making him resemble an upright bear! He wore heavy armor and held a pair of huge axes.
A single ax weighing more than 300 kilograms was easy for Tiger Fussen.
“According to the promotions from the United States of Arica, Tiger Fussen’s two axes weigh 600 kilograms,” Li Miaomiao said.
“With a Transcendent body, an ax is aningless if it’s light,” Xu Jingming said. “My spear is now 360 kilograms. Tiger Fussen cultivates Giant Bear Evolution, so he walks the path of overwhelming strength. Such an ax is nothing to him.”
“Nothing?” Li Miaomiao was dumbfounded.
“The heavier the weapon, the better. If he can’t control it perfectly, his delivery of the ax will slow down, and his strength will decrease.” Xu Jingming watched.
“Then, who do you think will win?” Li Miaomiao asked.
“The two of them are very strong. It depends on their improvisation.” Xu Jingming observed.
The battle erupted.
Miyagawa ishin wore close-fitting soft armor and held dual blades.
The weapon used in Japan was a blade, and the blade body was usually long and narrow, making it easy to chop. But in Japan, they preferred to call their blade techniques ‘kendo.’
Whoosh.
Miyagawa ishin’s figure flashed, turning into a phantom that lunged at Tiger Fussen.
“Haha…” Tiger Fussen—who was stocky and muscular like a bear—smiled. He delivered the ax in his left hand to Miyagawa ishin’s chest.
With the weight of the ax, Miyagawa ishin’s body would be in tatters if it were to touch him.
Miyagawa ishin was as agile as a phantom and easily dodged the ax, but it strangely struck him.
It was obvious that Tiger’s first move was defensive—an open move. The other ax was a sneak attack that was as fast as lightning.
Bang!
Miyagawa ishin imdiately struck the ax with his two blades, borrowing the incoming force to retreat more than 20 ters in a flash before landing on a tree branch.
“You dodged pretty quickly.” Tiger Fussen charged over, and his movent speed was also close to 120 ters per second.
As for Miyagawa ishin, he quickly threw his opponent off with a flash.
Miyagawa ishin—who cultivated Shadow Leopard Evolution—could reach 135 ters per second. In terms of speed and agility, he completely surpassed Tiger Fussen.
...
As Xu Jingming watched this battle, he thought about how he would deal with them if he was their opponent.
“Jingming, you often say that having the advantage in speed and agility ans you have the initiative in combat,” Li Miaomiao explained. “Does that an that Miyagawa ishin has the advantage? He can attack and retreat whenever he wants, but Tiger Fussen can’t touch him at all.”
“Tiger Fussen’s dual ax technique has Master’s Taiji Yin-Yang charm,” Xu Jingming said. “When defending, the two axes are like two doors. Most importantly, he’s wearing heavy armor, so he only needs to defend his head. Therefore… it’s very difficult for Miyagawa ishin to injure Tiger Fussen.”
Li Miaomiao said, “But it’s also very difficult for Tiger Fussen to hit Miyagawa ishin.”
“That’s right.” Xu Jingming nodded. “It’s just that the combat map will shrink over ti, forcing them to determine a winner! Therefore, if Miyagawa ishin wants to win, he has to use his spatial advantage in the early stages to win as soon as possible. Once this drags out, he will be in danger.”
“I’ve gathered information on Miyagawa ishin,” Li Miaomiao said. “I heard that Miyagawa ishin often practiced blade techniques with his eyes covered when he was in his high school’s Kendo Society. He competes with a group of teammates from the Kendo Society with his eyes covered… This person is very sensitive at close range!”
“With his Shadow Leopard’s evolutionary thod reaching Transcendent, a Lv. 4 blade technique, and his talent, he’s indeed very strong.” Xu Jingming nodded, but his eyes were filled with a hint of disappointnt.
This battle was actually a stalemate. Tiger Fussen didn’t have any advantage.
Tiger Fussen is weaker than I expected. He was always on par with Master for a long period of ti, Xu Jingming thought.
On the first day of Cosmos Tower’s launch, only his master and Tiger Fussen cleared it. He ca to watch this battle because of Tiger Fussen.
Ti passed.
In this battle, Tiger Fussen charged forward in an extrely domineering manner. His defense didn’t have any flaws.
Miyagawa ishin completely had the advantage in terms of speed and agility; he could retreat and attack whenever he wanted! Even when weapons collided, he could still deflect the force without giving Tiger Fussen a chance.
Ten minutes after the battle, the forest map’s activity range began to shrink. The spectating teammates were forced to fight.
The range of activity beca smaller and smaller. 300 ters, 200 ters, 100 ters…
The smaller the area, the worse the situation for Miyagawa ishin, who had the advantage in speed and agility.
“Die.”
Miyagawa ishin also charged forward with all his might.
His movent technique was unpredictable, and his two blades were filled with killing intent. It beca a lee battle that was more dangerous.
Bam.?
Miyagawa ishin couldn’t perfectly deflect the force at close range every ti. The recoil caused blood to flow from the corner of his mouth.
Moreover, there were ultimately tis he failed from all the risks he took every ti.
Just as Miyagawa ishin jolted from an impact, causing him to spread out his arms and open up his torso for an attack, Tiger suddenly swung his ax!
Miyagawa ishin turned ethereal and dissipated.
Tiger Fussen eventually won this battle!
“This battle was exciting.” On the comntary platform, the male guest, Jin Fan, exclaid in surprise. “Although Miyagawa ishin suffered a regretful loss, it’s obvious that… Miyagawa ishin wasn’t disadvantaged in the first ten minutes! His movent technique is so fast and agile that he’s at the apex of Global Crossfire. His two blades are also unpredictable, forcing Tiger Fussen to defend often. Most importantly, he’s only 17! His potential is truly astonishing.”
“It’s impressive for the 17-year-old Miyagawa ishin to fight Tiger Fussen to this extent.”
Including the comnt section, countless people in China recognized Miyagawa ishin’s strength.
This battle… It proved that Miyagawa ishin and Tiger Fussen were on the sa level. If not for the virtual world’s restrictions, causing the map to narrow in ten minutes and forcing Miyagawa ishin to risk his life, it was unknown who would win.
“Of the few matches we’ve seen in Global Crossfire, only Tiger Fussen and Miyagawa ishin can match our Xu Jingming.”
“Liu Hai hasn’t appeared yet. Tejano Xire participated in two matches in the beginning, but his strength is uncertain. To be able to determine his strength… It feels like Xu Jingming, Tiger Fussen, and Miyagawa ishin are ranked in the world’s top three.”
“Miyagawa ishin is Xu Jingming’s greatest opponent. He’s only 17.”
“Of the ten most dazzling experts in the world, Miyagawa ishin is the youngest. He’s 17… He hasn’t even reached the legal age in China!”
“In the battle just now, Miyagawa ishin’s maximum speed reached 135 ters per second—he’s even faster than Xu Jingming! Can Xu Jingming win against him?”
“Definitely!”
“Logically speaking, victory is unpredictable. Miyagawa ishin is too fast, and his dual blades work in perfect tandem.”
“Liu Hai is the sa. He hasn’t participated at all. It’s making us nervous!”
All kinds of comnts appeared, but it was obvious that people in China felt threatened by Miyagawa ishin.
“Let’s go.” Xu Jingming got up.
“How was this battle?” Li Miaomiao asked.
“Miyagawa’s strength is clearly as I expected.” Xu Jingming nodded. “Tiger Fussen is weaker than I expected.”
...
In the martial arts arena in his personal space.
Xu Jingming sighed slightly. I?thought Tiger Fussen would be a strong opponent, but unfortunately…?
He had been searching for a suitable opponent for a scheduled battle. From the looks of it, Tiger Fussen wasn’t the opponent he needed.
