This didn’t imply that General Tai didn’t have sufficient combat experience. It only represented a temporarily blanked out mind after a powerful shock.
In cruder terms, his mind had cramped!
However, Fang Zhengzhi’s didn’t cramp. Hence, he naturally wouldn’t give up such an opportunity. His reaction was extremely fast. It seemed that he had already began preparing for his second shot right after his first arrow left.
In reality, the entire time General Tai stood rooted to the spot, he was already calculating rapidly how to deal with General Tai’s released state.
Actually, he had two choices.
One was to immediately run down the arena and shout for help, then hug on tightly to Princess Shan Yu and beg for her protection.
The second was to fight.
Fang Zhengzhi chose the second.
Because, even though the probability of the first choice succeeding was higher, it was filled with unknown variables. After all, this was the army camp of the Southern Mountain Range. What would Princess Shan Yu’s decision be?
What choice would the soldiers below make?
He simply didn’t know.
If he escaped rashly now and was surrounded by the soldiers, and if General Tai suddenly jolted back to consciousness and deliver a killing blow to him, he would very likely lose his life.
Fang Zhengzhi wouldn’t do things which were vague and out of his control.
Hence, Fang Zhengzhi drew back his bow again.
The Fiery Rattan Bow was instantly pulled into a full moon as green light began to condense rapidly. Then, it instantly shot out from the bow, carrying with it an air of sharpness, flying towards General Tai’s chest with lightning speed.
General Tai hadn’t even been able to completely return to his senses.
The second green lightsword reached him.
His tiger eyes suddenly flicked open. He had never imagined that Fang Zhengzhi would choose to take another shot after blocking his attack, instead of running away immediately.
This sudden change in situation was too fast.
So fast that he felt as if his mind couldn’t catch up.
From the moment he attempted to deliver a killing blow to Fang Zhengzhi to the moment the second arrow left Fang Zhengzhi, the entire process between these two moments occurred within the blink of an eye.
As he gazed at the second green lightsword nearing him, General Tai’s mind was completely blank. However, his arm instinctively raised up the huge black sword and blocked in front of his chest.
The power of the Supernatural Advanced State.
Even if he made a slight blunder due to his shock, his acquired and conditioned reflex still remained. Hence, his huge black axe blocked the path of the lightsword.
”Boom!” A bang resounded.
Rays of light shot out in all directions as General Tai instantly took two steps back.
”Little kid, die!” General Tai felt the numbness in his arm and the wound that opened up on his chest from the explosion. He was clearly enraged by Fang Zhengzhi’s actions. If Fang Zhengzhi turned around and ran, he really wasn’t sure if he could catch up.
However, Fang Zhengzhi didn’t run and instead chose to continue fighting.
This gave him a huge opportunity.
He knew very clearly that he could only choose to walk this dark path to the end. If he really allowed Fang Zhengzhi to run away, he would never be able to change his fate.
As he saw the second lightsword being successfully blocked off.
The trace of a cold smile appeared on the edges of General Tai’s lips.
However, his cold smile seemed to have somewhat frozen very quickly. Because, a feeling of being ripped apart suddenly came from his waist.
Lowering his head.
General Tai’s expression completely changed.
Because, at his waist, there were three to four lightswords. Furthermore, these were three to four lightswords that had completely exploded apart. Countless green lightswords tore open his flesh like small sharp blades.
Why are there so many lightswords?
General Tai couldn’t understand.
Don’t tell me…
His lightswords weren’t created from the Fiery Rattan Bow?!
General Tai had all along felt that the reason Fang Zhengzhi being able to block his attack was due to relying on Princess Shan Yu’s Fiery Rattan Bow. Hence, he had the unconscious notion that only with the Fiery Rattan Bow could he create the lightsword.
However, in reality, Fang Zhengzhi’s lightswords naturally didn’t depend on the Fiery Rattan Bow.
Fang Zhengzhi, who had decided to fight.
Would naturally not hold back, especially when his opponent’s state completely overpowered that of his own. Holding back would truly be asking for death.
The second lightsword…
Was only a feint.
This was the essence of the Stabilisation Constabulary battle technique. Fang Zhengzhi knew very clearly that General Tai didn’t understand the essence of such a technique. A fake move was a real one, a real move was a fake one.
The last three to four lightswords were Fang Zhengzhi’s real killing technique.
”Boom!”
”Boom!”
Numerous sounds of explosion rang out at almost the same time.
The entire drill ground arena began to shake due to these countless deafening sounds. The flags that stood at the edges of the arena were completely ripped into powder.
At the same time, a gigantic figure was sent flying from the arena.
Then…
Flying in the sky with a parabola trajectory, then finally slamming into the ground with a ”thud!”
This sudden change in situation instantly shocked the soldiers below the arena once again. Just as they recovered from their anguished cries, they saw the scene that unfolded before them. All of their eyes opened wide in shock.
Even a few of the injured soldiers instantly forgot about the pain they were in.
”What happened?”
This was what everybody was initially thinking. However, this thought didn’t persist for long. Because, they quickly saw clearly the figure lying on the ground.
”General Tai?!”
”General Tai has fallen!”
”How.. how is this possible?”
How could the soldiers believe these.
If General Tai was defeated by Fang Zhengzhi with his state suppressed, even though that would cause them immense shock, they could still grudgingly accept it.
After all, that only meant that Fang Zhengzhi had won General Tai based on technique.
However…
Now, General Tai didn’t suppress his state.
He had the power of the Supernatural Advanced State, yet, he was sent sprawling on the arena by a small spy from the Great Xia? Is this possible? How can this be possible?
At this moment, Princess Shan Yu was completely stunned.
Even though she was a commander of the army, even though she had seen countless fantastic oddities of every description, but, it was still very difficult for her to accept what was unfolding before her.
General Tai was defeated by Fang Zhengzhi?
If such a thing was spread out, there was simply nobody who would believe it.
But, in reality…
This scene had unfolded right before her very eyes. It was truly real.
On the arena, General Tai’s waist was soaked with blood. That was a truly severe injury. Even if she wasn’t willing to believe it, she still had to admit that based on the rules of the competition, General Tai had already lost.
”Who is this guy? Who is he! How can he… can he… wait, what technique did he just use?!”
Princess Shan Yu tried her best to recall the huge green net on the arena.
