Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

As soon as Shen Yuan finished speaking, Wang Yi took a step forward with his left leg and landed heavily on the arena. He then took a deep breath, held it, and his golden body instantly radiated a strong light.

With the left leg straight and the right leg bent to the side, the body leans slightly backward, the right hand grips the halberd in reverse, the arm is extended backward to the limit, and the spine is stretched like a fully drawn bow.

Then, the force rose from the ground, and the right leg, like a spring compressed to its limit, released explosive power. The previously loose trouser leg suddenly tightened, revealing the clear outline of the muscles.

As the right leg exerts force, the muscles of the waist and back surge like waves, and the body suddenly pulls forward, waiting for the power of the lower limbs to be transmitted to the waist and back, perfectly merging with the power of the waist and back, and then climbing up the spine segment by segment, continuously amplifying.

Wang Yi could almost hear his bones roaring in anger and his muscle fibers groaning in pain.

Even with the golden light body enhancing the flexibility and strength of his bones and muscles, Wang Yi already felt that his body was somewhat unable to withstand it.

Fortunately, Wang Yi relied on the strength in his chest to support himself, and this strength was finally able to be channeled into his shoulder, enabling his right arm to throw the halberd with all his might.

Oh!

The sleeve of my right arm was torn in half, and I felt intense pain in my shoulder, elbow, and wrist joints at the same time.

All the essence that Wang Yi had learned from Wang Jiang over the past few months was fully integrated and blossomed in this single halberd strike.

Qian Pingping only saw Wang Yi make a javelin-throwing motion, and then a black lightning bolt, accompanied by a piercing shriek that cut through the air, entered her world.

Top athletes among ordinary people can throw javelins at speeds of 80 to 90 meters per second.

The muzzle velocity of a pistol bullet is between 300 and 500 meters per second.

Wang Yi's halberd strike was probably a bit slower than a pistol bullet, but it was still far faster than a javelin.

The arena was only a hundred meters in diameter. Wang Yi and Qian Pingping were a hundred meters apart, and the halberd flew from one end to the other in less than half a second.

What can you do in half a second? It's enough for a hummingbird's wings to flap thirty or forty times, enough for sound to travel 170 meters, and enough to see a giant light source 150,000 kilometers away.

But that was definitely not enough for her body to react in time to dodge the halberd; at least Qian Pingping's body couldn't.

Qian Pingping's physical fitness is better than that of an average person, but her reflexes are not much stronger.

Ordinary people who have received special training and have rich combat experience may have a chance to dodge bullets.

However, these people are not dodging the speed of the bullets, but the speed of the shooter. They are anticipating the shooter's aim and taking evasive action in advance.

Moreover, the width of the halberd blade is much greater than that of a bullet.

As soon as the battle began, Qian Pingping chose to unleash an attack spell. She possessed a rare-grade magic spell, Thunder Dragon, which had extremely strong single-target attacks, and was confident that she could break through Wang Yi's Black Rock Heavy Armor defense with two spells.

Because Qian Pingping had conducted experiments on blackhoofed yaks.

Unfortunately, she didn't get a second chance to unleash the Thunder Dragon.

The halberd and the thunder dragon brushed past each other, each heading towards its own target.

hum!

Wang Yi's dark halberd was inserted diagonally into the floor outside the arena behind Qian Pingping, with the entire blade embedded, leaving only a small section of the bare shaft sticking out.

The Thunder Dragon successfully struck the breastplate of the Black Rock Heavy Armor, blasting out a large amount of rock debris.

Wang Yi's Black Rock Heavy Armor flashed by, blocking the Thunder Dragon before dissipating. At the same time, the golden light around his body began to recede, for the outcome of the battle was already decided.

With his left hand on his chest, Wang Yi slowly exhaled a breath of stale air. A healing light shone from Wang Yi's chest, but it was completely covered by his palm, not revealing a trace of it.

A small horizontal wound appeared on Qian Pingping's cheek, two fingers below her left eye, with a few strands of blood slowly gathering and flowing.

Feeling the itchy, tingling sensation of blood flowing down her cheeks, Qian Pingping's dilated pupils finally slowly contracted.

A few drops of cold sweat slowly seeped from Shen Yuan's forehead. If he hadn't reacted faster and acted decisively, the consequences for Qian Pingping would have been unimaginable.

If he were to slack off or let his guard down even slightly, someone might end up getting killed.

Damn it, Wang Yi really doesn't know his own strength!

As a referee and a teacher who was supposed to cover for the students, Shen Yuan not only almost failed to cover for the students, but also almost failed to cover for himself.

The vortex shield surrounding Qian Pingping's body slowly dissipated.

If the vortex shield hadn't instantly appeared outside her body, deflecting the halberd's flight path, Qian Pingping would probably be unable to stand intact on the arena right now.

Even so, Wang Yi's halberd still pierced through the vortex shield, and the high-speed water flow it stirred up was like a sharp blade, cutting Qian Pingping's cheek and causing a tiny, insignificant wound.

Of course, although the vortex shield was pierced, it did not mean that Wang Yi's attack power had risen to the level of divine magic.

It's just that the vortex shield is better at defending against elemental magic, especially fire magic. Against a kinetic weapon like a halberd, which is large, hard, long, and heavy, its defensive effect is naturally weakened by several times.

As for the physical aspects, it can block the vortex shield of a rifle bullet, but the halberd's mass is tens of millions of times that of a bullet.

"The victor is Wang Yi."

Shen Yuan deactivated the vortex shield protecting Qian Pingping, glared at Wang Yi with lingering fear, and then announced the results.

Wang Yi grinned, put his right hand in his pocket, scratched his head with his left hand somewhat embarrassedly, then slowly stepped forward, and then walked faster and faster.

As Wang Yi passed by Qian Pingping, he said apologetically, "Excuse me, senior, are you alright?"

"No...it's nothing." Qian Pingping forced a smile, slowly regaining her composure before stiffly leaving the arena.

Wang Yi jumped off the stage, came to his halberd, reached out his left hand to grasp the end of the halberd, bent his waist and pulled hard, dragging the halberd out. Then he lightly put it on his left shoulder and carried it towards Qi Xiaohao and the others.

Only then did the previously silent stands begin to come alive again, with quiet discussions gradually emerging and then escalating.

Wang Yi's halberd strike just now was stunning to many.

Although the process happened so fast that many people didn't see it clearly, Wang Yi was still the first student since the start of the individual competition to force Shen Yuan to take action to protect him, and whose divine-grade defensive magic was even pierced.

The good news is that Wang Yi did indeed hide more, and everyone guessed correctly.

The bad news is that Wang Yi is hiding an even more savage and violent side of himself.

Back in his seat, Wang Yi casually leaned his halberd against the chair.

"Your control over your entire body's strength in this strike is almost perfect," Wang Jiang thought to himself, because even if he were to use this move, the effect wouldn't be much stronger than Wang Yi's.

Wang Yi then moved closer to the general and lowered his voice, saying:

"Don't talk, quickly set my arm, my shoulder is dislocated! Be discreet, I finally managed to pull off this big thing, don't ruin my image."
