"Hahahaha, Golden Lion, you can't do it!!"
Li Yuan laughed loudly while attacking madly.
The Golden Lion now had multiple sword wounds on his body, his face was pale, his breath was weak, and his physical strength was severely depleted. If he continued to fight, he would undoubtedly lose.
The Golden Lion said nothing, his eyes fixed on the Seven Star Sword. It was this sword that sucked a large amount of his blood, which caused him to consume so much energy in just five days.
When he first got the news about Li Yuan's Seven Star Sword, he thought he could block it with his military color domineering, but when he actually faced the sword.
Only then did he realize that as long as he was hit, even the Armament Haki would be difficult to resist. After all, his physique was not strong, and his Armament Haki was similar to Li Yuan's. How could he block the sharpness of the Seven Star Sword with his mortal body?
Once the Armament Haki is broken, the Seven Star Sword will be able to break through the physical defense, and being sucked blood is inevitable.
If the fight continues like this, Li Yuan will definitely win.
Unless he can avoid being hit by the Seven Star Sword, he can avoid being sucked of blood and will not be defeated!
"The Secret of the Three Elements in One - Slaying the God!!!"
The moment he noticed the golden lion was slightly damaged, Li Yuan's three sword powers burst out again.
A flash of blood-red light appeared, and the power of the sword seemed to be able to kill all the gods and Buddhas.
"Bang!!!"
The Golden Lion subconsciously blocked with his double swords, but the terrifying force cut off the double swords in his hands and pushed them towards his own chest.
At the critical moment, the Golden Lion used the power of the Floating Fruit to block the damage of the sword, and at the same time immediately flew back into the sky, removing the power of the sword.
"Hahahaha, Li Yuan, I lose this time, I admit it!"
After Golden Lion finished speaking, he immediately flew away from the arena. He was forced to use his fruit ability, which was equivalent to admitting defeat.
With the end of the battle between Li Yuan and Golden Lion, the list of the top four of the sword competition has been announced.
It was Li Yuan, Roger, Redfield, and Wang Zhi!
The next day, in front of the world, the four began to draw lots again. The result of the draw was Li Yuan VS Redfield, Roger VS Wang Zhi.
"Hahahaha, Red, I didn't expect that we would fight again!"
Looking at the Red Earl standing opposite him, Li Yuan smiled.
They had fought twice before, but Li Yuan won both times. This was the third time.
"Li Yuan, this is our third battle, but I will definitely win this time!"
The Red Earl said confidently.
"Come on then!"
"The Secret of the Three Elements in One: Blood Dragon Slashes the Sky!"
Li Yuan laughed loudly and swung his sword. The sword intent transformed into a thousand-meter-long blood dragon that soared into the sky and rushed towards the Red Earl as fast as a dragon emerging from the abyss.
When the sword will is condensed to the level of Li Yuan, it is completely possible to transform the sword will into a shape.
"Bloody Hunt!"
The Red Earl condensed his sword power and chopped out a thousand-meter-long strike, but when the strike collided with the blood dragon, it was unable to cut the blood dragon in half. The blood dragon opened its mouth wide and bit towards the Red Earl.
Seeing this, the Red Earl dodged the blood dragon's attack at an extremely fast speed like a stream of light.
However, just as he dodged the blood dragon's attack range, Li Yuan had already slashed at him with the Seven Star Sword.
After sensing it with his Observation Haki, the Red Earl raised his sword umbrella to block the Seven Star Sword, but was caught off guard and was hit by Li Yuan's sword, sending him back hundreds of meters.
"This guy's strength and swordsmanship have become much stronger."
The Red Earl said solemnly.
Ever since he was defeated by Li Yuan last time, he had worked hard to improve his physique and his swordsmanship had also become more condensed.
But he didn't expect that Li Yuan's physical strength and swordsmanship have improved more than his. Is this guy really infinitely improving? Is there no limit?
"Hahahaha, Reid, you are indeed much stronger than you were two years ago, but I will not stand still and wait for you!"
Li Yuan noticed the surprise in the Red Earl's eyes and rushed over while speaking. He would not give up on pursuing the victory just because of the Red Earl's surprise.
When Li Yuan attacked again, the Red Earl released the force from his feet, steadied his body, blocked the attacking Seven-Star Sword with his umbrella sword, and then deflected the Seven-Star Sword belt to the extreme, and the sword umbrella stabbed towards Li Yuan's heart.
Li Yuan did not retreat but advanced, dodging to the side while the Seven Star Sword swiftly attacked the Red Earl's neck.
The Red Earl had no choice but to withdraw and attack Li Yuan with his umbrella sword to prevent him from getting closer.
"Explosive Step!"
Unexpectedly, the moment Li Yuan blocked the umbrella, an even stronger force burst out from under his feet, making him even faster and getting closer to the Red Earl once again.
"Shadow Step!"
Seeing this, the Red Earl also burst out at an even faster speed. Ever since he was defeated by Li Yuan, he deliberately learned physical skills in order to increase his speed even more.
After all, he knew how bloodthirsty Li Yuan's Seven Star Sword was. Only by moving fast enough could he avoid being hit by Li Yuan's Seven Star Sword.
"Failed again!"
When Li Yuan approached, the Red Count tried to read Li Yuan's memory through his special Observation Haki. Even though it was not the memory, but the intention and direction of the attack, he could not read it. His special Observation Haki was ineffective on Li Yuan!
"Hahahaha, Reid, you really didn't let me down!"
Seeing that the Red Earl was so fast, Li Yuan became even more excited. He used the Seven Star Sword in his hand to attack more violently in coordination with his own speed.
The Red Earl's speed was not slow at all, and Li Yuan's violent and fast attacks were all blocked by the Red Earl.
However, it was a little difficult for the Red Earl to block it. After all, Li Yuan's swordsmanship was too tricky and his style was too strange and varied. Without the help of mind reading, the Red Earl could not easily block or dodge all the enemy's attacks like he did with other people.
Li Yuan and the Red Earl were moving very fast, so fast that most people could not keep up with them. Even some great sword masters could only see two figures constantly crossing each other, and could not even see their swords clearly.
Luo Jie's swordsmanship is very strong, much stronger than Wang Zhi's. After the two fought for half a day, Wang Zhi was defeated by Luo Jie.
At this time, almost everyone's attention was focused on the battle between Li Yuan and Redfield. This peak duel would determine the top two in the World Kendo Championship!
"Is this the world's top swordsman? I am really far behind!"
Roberts stared at the fight between Li Yuan and the Red Earl and sighed.
After he was defeated by Li Yuan before, Li Yuan told him that his swordsmanship lacked a lot of refinement and was far behind the world's top sword masters. Now it seems that what he said was absolutely right.
"Master, in ten years, I will also participate in the World Kendo Tournament!"
After hearing what Roberts said, Hawk-Eyes Mihawk next to him said firmly.
When the top 16 contestants were announced, the Promise Pirates had already announced the date for the next World Kendo Championship, which would be held ten years later!
And every ten years, a World Kendo Championship would be held, which was like heavenly music to many swordsmen!
This action earned the Promise Pirates the favor of swordsmen all over the world.
"Hahahaha, of course. You are my most outstanding disciple. When you go out to sea in the future, don't stay in the Four Seas for too long. Come to the New World for training as soon as possible."
"Ten years from now, you will definitely have a place in the World Swordsmanship Tournament. Twenty years from now, you will have the opportunity to pursue the position of the world's greatest swordsman."
Roberts was very satisfied with his disciple. Although he was born into a noble family, he had an unwavering swordsmanship. He was a natural swordsman and a natural swordsman!
"Roger, are you sure you can handle Li Yuan?"
Rayleigh asked Roger who had already sat down, because Roger's next opponent would be Li Yuan.
Although it seems that Li Yuan and the Red Earl are evenly matched now, people of their level must be able to see that it is only a matter of time before the Red Earl is defeated.
"Hey, you can see that Li Yuan's swordsmanship, which combines the three sword intents, is too domineering."
Roger sighed.
His strengths lie in his Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki. His swordsmanship power is weaker than both Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki. If it comes to pure swordsmanship, he naturally cannot beat Li Yuan.
"That's fine. Since you came in second, you'll get at least 8 billion berries. Our pirate group won't have to worry about money for a long time."
Rayleigh said nonchalantly.
On the first day, the Red Earl was still able to fight on equal terms with Li Yuan.
The next day, the Red Earl found it difficult to defend against Li Yuan's sword moves.
On the third day, the Red Earl fell into a disadvantage and was injured by Li Yuan from time to time.
On the fourth day, the Red Earl was completely suppressed by Li Yuan.
On the fifth day, the Red Earl's battle rhythm was completely controlled by Li Yuan.
On the sixth day, the Red Earl, like the Golden Lion before him, was almost in a state of being crushed.
"I give up!"
On the seventh day, the Red Earl conceded defeat. If the fight had continued, the outcome would not have changed much.
He didn't expect that he would lose to Li Yuan again. Although he didn't use his full strength this time, Li Yuan didn't use his full strength either.
Even if both sides fight with all their might, the outcome will not change much.
"Hahahahaha, Reid, I beat you again. I will continue to beat you next time!"
Looking at the Red Earl who admitted defeat, Li Yuan laughed.
"That's not certain. You might be the loser next time!"
The Red Earl looked at Li Yuan's smug expression, his face darkened, and he stepped down immediately after saying some harsh words. He didn't want to embarrass himself in front of the whole world.
"This year's World Kendo Championship has reached the finals stage. The finals will be held in three days, and the two finalists are Li Yuan and Luo Jie. Let's look forward to their duel in two days!"
The beautiful host's voice spread throughout the entire fighting pyramid.
This makes everyone even more excited for the final in three days!
During this period, Redfield and Wang Zhi fought again, and the third place was decided, and it was Redfield!
