Absolute Speed ​​of a Certain Anime

If that guy can't even get past Wang Ma, then he should find another opportunity to "get along well" with him!

"I was thinking of going out... but forget it tonight."

Kurogane Ouma sat on the edge of the bed and closed his eyes.

The sound of breathing became heavier and heavier, as if something was accumulating.

The momentum before was very unusual.

Before he knew it, he had become serious.

…………

the next day.

In the early morning, people flocked towards the bay like a tide.

Countless spectators entered the dome-shaped arena built on the seashore from all directions. Millions of tourists made the bay city bustling with people and lively as if it were reaching the sky.

That dome-shaped arena is the venue for this year's Seven Star Sword Dance Festival!

Even though it is midsummer, it cannot stop people's enthusiasm.

“Wow, there are so many people!”

Rabbit Maru Lianlian was holding a box of popcorn, with an amazed look on her face.

The entire arena has tens of thousands of seats, and at this moment, it is completely full!

"Luckily, Kanata bought the tickets for us in advance, otherwise we would have to sit on the street under the scorching sun and watch the live broadcast on the big screen on the street!"

This year's Seven Star Sword Dance Festival was extremely popular and tickets were hard to come by. I don't know how many people paid high prices to buy scalped tickets online. Fortunately, they have a rich friend.

Guideyuan smiled but said nothing.

"They're coming."

At one point, she nodded towards the audience.

"Looks like he's in good spirits."

After a while, four people from Pojun Academy, led by Jiang Li, arrived in front of the audience stand where they were.

All four of them looked ready to go, and they were all in high spirits.

It seems that everyone can face today's game in the best condition.

At the same time, from the entrances in all directions, you can also see representative athletes from various schools walking into the field.

"Wahahahaha! Junior brother, it looks like your luck isn't very good this time!"

Suddenly, a tender laugh sounded above the stands.

"This voice..."

As soon as he met up with Bifang and the others, Jiang Li rubbed the goose bumps on his arms.

In a flash, a figure fell lightly from the sky.

The bright red kimono, the huge bow, the iron fan in her hand, and the figure of an elementary school student all revealed her identity.

"Expired Loli, why are you here?"

Jiang Li looked disgusted.

"Hey, the little brat has grown up, and his butt is itchy, right?"

Xijing Ningyin's face twisted.

"What did you call me just now?"

"Expired Loli!"

Jiang Li retreated tactically, assuming an attitude of not recognizing anyone.

Sorry, I'm bloated!

I don’t have to look at the expired loli’s face anymore, hahaha!

"Very good, it seems you've grown wings! Just wait and see how I teach you a lesson after the game!"

Xijing Ningyin's little face was full of ferocity.

"Oh, come on!"

Jiang Li's face was full of disdain.

I still remember the hint of fear on your face when you talked about the Double Wing Sword Technique!

Unexpectedly!

I am the second Biyi!

“Teacher Xijing, where is Stella?”

Kurogane Ikki stretched his head to look behind her and said with a confused look.

"That little girl and I are not from the same group, but she should be on her way here now."

Xijing Ningyin shook the iron fan in his hand twice and looked at them meaningfully.

"That little girl really surprised me. She might become your biggest enemy if you want to win the championship this time!"

Stella had been receiving special training from her before.

Judging from her appearance, Stella's strength might have made great progress.

Upon hearing this, Kurogane Ikki's expression became slightly serious for a moment, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

Not long after.

"Om-!"

A shrill sound of a broken microphone came from the radio.

Just like dolphins receiving a signal, tens of thousands of spectators in the venue quickly quieted down, looking at the podium in anticipation.

Jiang Li and other contestants also became solemn, waiting for the opening signal.

“People say: Struggle is evil, and hatred arises from it.

People say: Peace is beauty, and superiority is fostered by it.

People say: Violence is a crime because it harms innocent people.

People say: coordination is good because it cares for others.

This is what people with a conscience think.

But even so, people still yearn to be strong!

Unparalleled strength! Unparalleled bravery!

Capable of sweeping away thousands of enemies with overwhelming force!

Being able to do whatever you want and move forward without any hindrance is absolute power!

Who can honestly say that he has never yearned for something, who can honestly say that he has never longed for something!

Everyone has a dream that they yearn for from the moment they are born; and everyone also has a dream that they have to abandon because it is too far away!

And today, young boys and girls stood on this stage in order to challenge each other, risking their lives!

Seven Star Academy, along with the newly formed private Akatsuki Academy, have chosen thirty-two elites from eight schools across the nation! Each one of them is a brave knight chosen from among thousands, but today, only one can become the nation's number one "Seven Star Sword King"!

Fighting with swords in hand is the tradition of knights!

The time has come, thirty-two elite knights. No one will punish you at this moment alone. Please follow your heart, give it your all, and compete until the very end!

Now, I declare—the 62nd Seven Star Sword Dance Festival begins now!"

The number of people in the previous number was wrong, it was 32, and it has been corrected.

Chapter 693: The First Round of Battle (33)

2023-06-01

On the podium, the host roared at the top of his lungs.

In the audience, countless audience members burst into applause and roars.

With this as the beginning, the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival officially opens!

"This year's Seven Star Sword Dance Festival is packed with hidden talents thanks to Akatsuki Academy's involvement! To provide a more accurate live commentary and broadcast, the committee has specially prepared high-definition cameras with ultra-high magnification to film the entire event. We've also specially invited Mr. Kaieda, the 'Thunder of Judgment', to provide commentary!"

"Please advise!"

"Without further ado, please look at the big screen!"

At the host's excited call, the large screen embedded in the wall at the north end of the arena suddenly lit up.

"This year's match schedule has been released. It's a two-to-one elimination format! Thirty-two contestants will fight a total of five rounds to determine the Seven-Star Sword King!"

"Today will be the first round of this tournament! The match schedule for today has been released on the screen. Please invite the two players in the first match, Pojun Academy's 'Uncrowned Sword King' Kurogane Ikki and Tanlang Academy's 'Swordsman Killer' Kurashiki Kurato, to the preparation room. The duel will begin in ten minutes!"

On the huge screen, an electronic battle chart is clearly visible.

The 32 contestants were divided into four groups: A, B, C, and D, with eight people in each group.

There are a total of sixteen matches, four in each group.

"I'll go first."

Kurogane Ikki said hello and left the audience.

"No wonder Expired Loli said I had bad luck signing."

Jiang Li stared at the battle schedule on the screen.

What kind of monsters are there in District D?

Not to mention Jiang Li himself, Akatsuki Academy's Kurogane Ouma and Shinomiya Tenon are in this group, Yakushi Kiriko is also in this group, and there are also several other players who were in the quarterfinals last year.

If we count carefully, excluding Jiang Li himself, there are actually three A-level knights in Division D!

It's hellish difficulty!

"It's really difficult for those people to meet me!"

Jiang Li sighed deeply.

"When did you become so narcissistic?"

Xijing Ningyin kicked over.

The kick hit the calf, but it felt very bad, like kicking steel.

"This boy?"

Xijing Ningyin was secretly shocked.

"The first game begins!"

Kurogane Jushizuku clung to the railing, a hint of nervousness showing on her face.

On the circular battlefield with a diameter of one hundred meters, the figures of Kurogane Ikki and Kurashiki Kurato walked out from the red and blue gates.

The two stood facing each other, their expressions either serious or ferocious, each manifesting a spiritual outfit.

"First game! — Let's go ahead!"

The referee was a dark-haired beauty.

With a wave of his hand, the two swordsmen immediately started fighting each other.

Facing the first game, the audience outside the stadium was very enthusiastic, and the shouts and cheers were endless.

"Isn't that the chairman?"

"She's a referee and also a firefighter."

It turned out to be the case.

There's nothing better for being a firefighter than having time stand still.
