Absolute Speed ​​of a Certain Anime

If he won the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival but Pojun Academy did not let him graduate, the alliance would first cause trouble for Pojun Academy.

"17, 18...19, 20..."

Jiang Li was standing upside down, leaning against the wall, doing handstand push-ups.

Sweat continued to flow down his naked chest, dripping onto the ground and wetting the concrete floor. The biceps on his arms, which had already begun to take shape, bulged hard, like a fully drawn bowstring, without any relaxation.

Doing handstand push-ups under multiple gravity is extremely difficult, especially the huge pressure on the arms. Jiang Li also did it in great pain, and his arms were so sore that they felt like they would break at any time.

After finishing a set, he took a short break, sat down on the ground, and swung his arms with a sore face.

"It's muscles, hehe!"

With a slight exertion of strength, Jiang Li looked down and saw that his chest muscles and abdominal muscles had become more obvious. Although they were still far from strong, they were very different from the thin appearance half a month ago.

There is a saying that goes, moderate exercise attracts the opposite sex, while excessive exercise attracts the same sex. It can be seen that no matter whether men or women, they will not dislike men with muscles.

Jiang Li was not worried about turning into a bloated muscular man.

Judging from his skeleton, he could grow at least ten centimeters taller, and his shoulders are very broad. If he continues to exercise, he will probably become a muscular man instead of a muscle man.

"Stop bragging about yourself! You're still a million miles away from meeting my standards!"

Expired Loli was lying on the beach chair next to her with a bunch of snacks next to her.

She wore a pair of large sunglasses that covered the upper half of her face, and a second folding fan covered the lower half, making it impossible to see her expression.

But when Jiang Li was exercising, the expired loli's eyes did scan him like lasers. He could sense this gaze, and many times he felt that this loli would not be able to help but pounce on him.

"Tell me the lowdown, what level do you have to reach to be considered among the world's top physical athletes?"

Jiang Li took advantage of this time to relax his body and asked the expired loli curiously.

"If you can move freely under a hundred times the gravity, then you've almost met the requirements."

Expired Loli threw a piece of popcorn into her mouth and replied casually.

hiss!

Jiang Li took a deep breath.

Wow, a hundred times the gravity!

If you don’t know, you might think they are watching Dragon Ball!

He can now only move under single-digit multiples of gravity at best, and it is quite difficult. It is a long and difficult road before he can move freely under a hundred times gravity.

"Huh? You're not exercising anymore?"

Expired Loli asked in surprise when she saw him stand up and walk to the table beside him.

"No, I have a game this afternoon, so I need to go back to the dormitory and wash up first."

Jiang Li shook his head, wiped the sweat off his body with a towel, then took out his school uniform from the plastic bag and put it on again.

Today is Saturday.

Three days had passed since the battle with the rich woman Kanata, which happened to be the day for his second round of the selection competition.

This time, the opponent is a guy I have never heard of, but he is said to be among the top ten on campus.

The rich woman on the other side kept her word and didn't let him meet anyone she knew. Otherwise, with his Schrödinger's luck, who knows what kind of bloody development would have happened.

"Hmm? Information about the rich woman from the other side?"

The student handbook showed an unchecked message from the wealthy woman on the other side who had just been added as a friend a few days ago.

"It's the weekend today, and I have nothing to do. After the game, are you free to go on a date with me?"

It's a date invitation from a rich woman over there.

She is so proactive that she asked him out on a date in the first week after they confirmed their relationship. It seems that she is also very lonely. What a greedy woman.

"my pleasure."

Jiang Li replied to the message word by word, then left the forest with the package.

By the way, the clothes in the bag were stolen from Expired Loli. Anyway, she bought the clothes for him to wear, one piece a day, and he wouldn't take them back, so Jiang Li just took them all for herself. Besides, she had a good eye, and the clothes she bought were indeed very fashionable.

"Um……"

Expired Loli looked at Jiang Li's departing back, took off her sunglasses and fell into deep thought.

"Wasn't that smile of his just now a little... strange?"

Don't know how to describe it.

It was the kind of smile that made her want to hit someone, and she didn't know what had happened.

…………

Half past one in the afternoon.

Ninth training ground.

"It's finally here! I'm announcer Tsukuyomi, and next up is the fifth match at the ninth training ground this afternoon! Both teams are outstanding figures from Pojun Academy! We've invited Oreki Yuri-sensei to commentate on today's match, and we're very welcome!"

"Ahem... Hello everyone..."

"Oreki-sensei looks a little pale. I hope he doesn't vomit blood during the commentary... Okay, without further ado, let's welcome the next two contestants!"

"The first to emerge from the red gate was our Pojun Academy's 'Broken Winged Angel'! He seemed like an angel descended from the sky. Before school started, he was already famous in the academy for defeating the former world number three. In the first match three days ago, he defeated the academy's number two, 'Scarlet Lady', despite being at an overwhelming disadvantage. Since then, his fame has skyrocketed, and he's become one of the favorites to qualify for the selection tournament! But he seems to get himself into a tattered state in every match. I really hope he can take better care of himself, otherwise it really breaks my heart... ahem, please welcome Nanxiang Jiangli from Class 1, Grade 1!"

"?"

Jiang Li walked into the battle circle with a dark face.

Who the hell gave me such a weird nickname like "Broken Winged Angel"?

Stand up, I promise to hit you eight or ten times with lightning speed, but I won’t kill you!

If we really have to choose a nickname, it should at least be something like "Aurora Swordsman", which sounds very cool and mentions his abilities and fighting style, right?

Chapter 72 The Second Match of the Selection Tournament

2023-06-01

Titles are not something you choose yourself, but are recognized by everyone. No matter who it comes from, as long as it is widely circulated, it can become the title of a swordsman.

In Pojun Academy, only outstanding figures can have their own titles. Once you have a title, it means that you have become one of the most outstanding figures in Pojun Academy.

For example, Senior Sister Daohua, her super-electromagnetic sword-drawing technique "Raikiri" is so famous that it has become her title, symbolizing her status as the strongest in the academy.

Then there is Kanata's "Scarlet Lady" and Stella's "Red Lotus Princess", etc., all of which are symbols of status and fame.

It's not surprising that Jiang Li got a title, but it's weird that he got a visual nickname like "Broken Winged Angel" instead of a cool-sounding title like "Aurora Swordsman".

He was sure that a girl must have come up with this title, which then quickly spread throughout the campus and was recognized by most of the girls in the school.

Alas, once you become famous, you can no longer decide on many things.

"Then, emerging from the blue gate is another highly popular contestant, whose cheers can be heard from the audience. He's ranked in the top ten on campus, known as the 'Heavy Tank', the Taogu Warrior! He's using his rare armor-type inherent spiritual suit, the 'Goliath', to unleash gravity impacts, knocking countless opponents out of the arena. Will we see his special skills today?"

"Come on, Taogu, don't lose to that pretty boy!"

"I'll remember you. Don't even think about finding a girlfriend for the next three years!"

Someone in the audience cheered with jealousy, but it was quickly drowned out by the angry shouts of the girls nearby.

The girls joined forces and formed a "Broken Winged Angel Support Group" to eliminate the possibility of the man finding a girlfriend within the next three years.

His charm is only 46 points, which can be said to have reached the threshold of being extraordinary. It is almost impossible for anyone in the human world to be as charming as him, but since it does not reach the full value of 50, it cannot be said that he can charm everything. There is still a small number of people who will feel jealous of him.

After all, human hearts are the most unpredictable.

Jiang Li shook his head and focused his attention on his opponent.

Twenty meters in front of him stood a burly man over 1.9 meters tall. The armor he wore was made of overlapping layers of thick armor, which looked extremely defensive.

When he walked, every step made the ground beneath his feet vibrate slightly, and it seemed to be incredibly heavy, at least several hundred kilograms.

"First-year student, I've heard of you!"

The Taogu warrior lowered his body at the starting line and assumed a charging posture.

"I've defeated the chairman and the second-best student in the school, but you are definitely not my opponent. My ability is even better than the Scarlet Lady's in restraining you!"

I can tell.

The defensive power of the armor on his body must be extremely terrifying. It might even be able to block the impact of the speed of sound, making Jiang Li's "Absolute Speed" useless.

Although the rich woman's ability restrained him, there was still a chance for him to take advantage of her.

But Tao Gu's ability really made his supernatural powers completely ineffective. After all, his magic power is really low now. Even if he delivers the most extreme attack, he probably won't be able to hurt Tao Gu.

In this world of fallen knights, using any sword-cutting ability consumes magic power, and there must be enough magic power as fuel to maximize the power of the ability.

That is why the total amount of magic power becomes the most important indicator to measure the strength of a swordsman and is called the power of destiny.

Jiang Li's magic power doesn't need to be very high, as long as it can reach the average level of E or D, then his swordsman level can at least rise to C or above.

In that case, the lightning and fire he unleashed with all his might would probably have an impact force several times the speed of sound, and even his senior sister's "Raikiri" would be thrown eight blocks away.

However, facing an opponent like Taogu, he doesn't need any powerful magic at all.

“——Let’s go ahead (the game begins)!”

The moment the game started, the buzzer sounded loudly.

“Drink ah ah ah—!”

Tao Gu shouted at the same time, then stomped his right foot on the ground and rushed towards Jiang Li.

Seeing the incredibly heavy armor on him, some people might think that his movements must be very slow, but this is not the case.

He condensed magic power under his feet and then detonated it, turning it into a magic booster, allowing him to dive out at the speed of a cheetah.

His collision force is undoubtedly enough to rival that of a high-speed truck, which is why he is among the top ten on campus and is one of the C-class knights.

envious.

If he had so much magic power, he would be at least a B-rank knight now.

As Jiang Li thought this, he took a calm step forward and dodged the collision with a sideways movement.

A strong wind blew, blowing up his messy hair and clothes, causing screams from the audience.

Then, he swung his knife with his backhand, chopping Tao Gu's waist with incredible precision.

The timing was so clever that people mistakenly thought Tao Gu had rushed forward to chop him.

However, in reality, this is not the case, and he is not even using intuition.

His eyes possess extremely terrifying insight. Even if it is a move he has never seen before, he can quickly analyze its key points and essence. If it is swordsmanship, he can replicate it on himself in an instant.

The moment Tao Gu set off, Jiang Li had already calculated his trajectory and knew when, at what angle, and with what force he would rush to his side.

As long as he had all this information, it would be easy for him to dodge Tao Gu's actions or even swing his knife at him.

"It's useless!"

However, Tao Gu stopped and laughed even though he was hit by a knife.

"Your sword is too weak. There's no way it can penetrate my armor! Just accept your fate. You can't possibly defeat me!"

Taogu felt that he had already won the battle.

After all, the compatibility of their abilities was too poor. To him, the opponent's abilities were almost the same as nothing. The knife swung by the opponent didn't even leave a white mark on his body.

"Mortal wisdom."

Jiang Li raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a sneer.

Famous lines, handsomeness value +1!

The fans in the audience started screaming again, and some had already opened their student handbooks and started writing down his famous quotes.

"To defeat you, I don't even need to use my powers."

Jiang Li swung his sword again, chopping Tao Gu who was charging forward again.

The position of this cut is exactly the same as the angle and position of the first cut.

Tao Gu, full of confidence, ignored this and continued to charge regardless.
