In Tokyo, I draw cards and become a big demon

This appearance and temperament were completely beyond Uesugi Che's expectations.

Because of the previous "voyeurism" incident, Uesugi Tetsu originally thought that Kujo Oboroya would be the kind of eerie old witch with a face wrinkled like bark and an ominous aura all over her body.

Seeing her now, apart from the blood-red lines spreading and crisscrossing on her skin, she was almost no different from an ordinary woman of the same age or even younger.

Pretend?

Uesugi Che turned his gaze slightly to the right and saw the three notaries who were in charge of this real sword test.

Kujo Shingo, who was from the Onmyoji Bureau, was nodding at him.

Tokugawa Xing, who was from the Tokugawa family, had his eyes narrowed into slits and raised his fist towards him with a sneer.

There is one last person...

Huijue, who was wearing a T-shirt with a big "Chao" word printed on it and a thick skull necklace, was smiling at him with his white teeth.

Uesugi Che couldn't help but be stunned.

He had never expected to see Huijue here.

After a moment, Uesugi Che saw clearly the jacket on Huijue's back - a jacket with the logo of the Special Affairs Office, or more precisely, the Yin-Yang Division.

Originally, it was very difficult for Nanjo Aimi to just get Huijue a name on the Special Affairs Office.

But now he has become a powerful Yin-Yang master, and is sitting openly in front of so many people.

The meaning behind this is huge.

It seems that many things happened during the period after he separated from Honganji and Huijue that he was not aware of.

But these are all things for later.

Uesugi Tetsu nodded at him and walked towards the center of the arena. He saw Xiao Yuelan who had been waiting there and had started playing with the bone dagger out of boredom.

"It's so slow..."

Xiao Yuelan still made that lazy and weak voice.

She wore a black mask and her eyes were half closed.

But this time she was not wearing a loose color-blocked sweatshirt, but a tight leather one-piece jacket that covered her neck, ankles, and wrists.

The light pink leather jacket accurately shows every inch of Xiao Yuelan's body curve.

But at the same time, it also exposed to everyone the fact that she had no other weapons except the bone dagger in her hand.

Uesugi Tetsu's eyes swept across the plain sandy ground around him: "You came too early, I was the one who arrived on time."

"Morning..."

Xiao Yuelan muttered, pulled the mask off from behind her ears, and threw it casually beside her feet, which were so white that they seemed unreal. Then she framed Shangshan Che with her dark and deep pupils.

In the short time before the notary announced the start of the match, the two men faced each other at a distance of about ten meters, observing each other without leaving any room for maneuver.

During this period, the discussions among the audiences who came from surrounding cities and counties, from all over the world, and from various small temples and families became increasingly heated.

An Onmyoji asked curiously, "Brothers, I can't sense any spiritual energy from them, so I can't tell how strong or weak they are. Can you tell me what you think?"

"I can tell it's the woman in the leather jacket on the left. You can tell just by looking at her spirit."

"You're right, but that little Shikigami in the white wedding gown is adorable. I've already taken dozens of pictures of her and I'll sell them for a fee!"

A well-informed heir shrugged, "Akira Lan has personally slain at least a hundred demons in the past two years. The other, Uesugi Tetsu, is a rising star after the first wave. Who do you think has a better chance of winning?"

Someone not far away sighed, "Now I just hope Uesugi-kun can hold on a little longer, otherwise all my tickets, train tickets, and absenteeism pay will be wasted."

The Yin-Yang Master was stunned for a moment: "That's not right, isn't this real sword test three rounds?"

After these words were spoken, everyone around them finally couldn't help laughing, making the laughter in this area rise and fall one after another.

Behind Uesugi Tetsu, everyone from the Arakawa district, led by Nanjo Aimi, was sitting here.

Hattori Ayako heard the laughter coming from the surroundings every once in a while, pursed her lips, and asked the person next to her: "Why does everyone seem to be pessimistic about Uesugi-kun..."

"Because theoretically it's not easy to win. That's what the data analysis says."

Beside her, Mu Yetong pushed up his glasses and said calmly, "Of course, I personally support Uesugi-kun."

After hearing the answer, Hattori Ayako clenched her fists and asked the same question to Ririkko on the other side.

The latter, with only a pair of eyes exposed, shook his head silently - there was no need to think about things that were already over.

Ever since she first saw Uesugi Che walking out of the passage, the outcome of at least the first and second rounds of this real sword test had been decided.

Even if the trial has not yet begun.

——Uesugi Tetsu is such a person. If you are not careful, you may be left far behind by him.

Lilizi indifferently withdrew her gaze from the venue and instead cast it cryptically beside the notary's seat.

"Third sister..."

She showed an extremely complicated look and murmured softly in her heart.

When Hattori Ayako saw Ririkozora shaking her head, her expression became visibly nervous.

Cold sweat oozed from her palms.

Hattori Ayako looked at Uesugi Tetsu, whose face was as calm as water, and then listened to the objective comments coming from all around. Finally, she stood up and shouted,

"——Uesugi-kun, come on! I believe you can win!"

Hearing Hattori Ayako's encouragement from behind, Uesugi Tetsu blinked in surprise and turned around to nod at her.

At this moment, before Kujo Oboroya announced the contestants and the three notaries announced the rules.

Xiao Yuelan moved.

In an instant, silver light came like an arrow!

Chapter 152: M attribute explosion, the second trial of the real sword! (6k)

There were no footsteps, no breathing, not even the sound of an entity breaking through the air at high speed.

quietly.

In just a moment, the slender silver light that burst out from Xiao Yuelan's hand had reached the side of Uesugi Che.

But if you look from outside, you can still see Xiao Yuelan standing in the center of the sand field of the arena, not moving at all.

This strange phenomenon made many viewers with little practical experience stunned in their seats, not knowing where to look for a moment.

But even though Uesugi Tetsu had not turned back, the "mirror" in his heart had already clearly reflected the trajectory of the stab, which was as calm as water but full of murderous intent.

Uesugi Tetsu didn't waste time looking back.

He held his breath and concentrated, allowing the scorching corona energy to burst out from the ends of his hands. Then he turned his wrist and placed the tip of his spear across the path of the sudden and rapid stab.

Stab it!

Iron and bone collided at one point, and after a moment of silence, the violent sound turned into visible sound waves that spread out in all directions.

Feeling the heavy pressure transmitted from the gun to his arm, Uesugi Tetsu's heartstrings were moved without changing his expression.

The two-foot-tall man behind him immediately raised his hands and made a gun shape.

Along with the sound of popopo, a series of gray-white projectiles passed by Uesugi Tetsu and rushed towards him.

clang! clang!

And just before these gray-white bullets arrived, the true body of the silver-white flowing light - the short pure white bone dagger turned and flew at an almost zero distance, and stabbed the same point on the head of the spear again and again.

boom!

As Uesugi Tetsu perceived with a little surprise, the upper right corner of the head of the Special Affairs Department's standard-issue spear in his hand suddenly shattered and turned into sharp fragments that flew in all directions.

He tilted his head slightly to avoid the debris, letting it embed deeply into the stone wall of the arena, and stared at Xiao Yuelan's figure which gradually solidified under the light.

Why, Xiao Yuelan would rather risk being hit by the bullets fired by Erchisama than stay where she is for a moment longer.

But Xiao Yuelan used her actual actions to tell Uesugi Tetsu——

And there’s much more!

Amidst the flying black and white hair, Xiao Yuelan grinned exaggeratedly and pointed the short dagger, which was only two inches long, at Uesugi Che's neck.

Under Uesugi Tetsu's gaze, the dagger, which was at least one meter away from his body, extended without warning!

There was neither the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy nor any sign of breathing energy flowing.

The cold touch brushed past Uesugi Che's skin by a hair's breadth, cutting off some of his hair at the temples.

The next moment, the bullets coming from all directions exploded and turned into a huge sticky white net that fell down, covering every possible direction of Xiao Yuelan's escape without a single blind spot.

The half-broken spears spun around at the same time, crashing down from above.

boom!

Yellow sand splashed up with the sound of the explosion, raising a misty and turbid smoke and dust.

But there was no feeling of hitting any real object in Uesugi Che's hand.

Ran away?

when?

Uesugi Che waved his hand to disperse the smoke and dust in front of him, and saw a slowly dissipating shadow in front of him.

He thought for a moment and looked towards the center of the arena.

"That was a close call. It was almost smashed to pieces."

There, Xiao Yuelan's face was flushed, and she was patting her chest lightly with joy, revealing a completely different look from before the battle began.

She was enjoying the pleasure brought by the moment of life and death.

"An illusion that swapped places..."

Uesugi Che let go, letting the broken spear fall to the ground.

Then spiritual power surged in his palm, and he used it as a disguise to pull out a new spear from his storage backpack and pointed it at Xiao Yuelan from a distance.

At this time, Kujo Oboroya, who was sitting at the highest point, began to slowly read out the rules.

"This time, the real sword test will pit our Longyue Hall against the Special Affairs Department. We will send three people, namely..."

In the notary's seat, Kujo Shingo frowned and said, "Before the organizer and the notary read out the rules, you've already violated the rules."

"This is a true sword test, Lord Kujo."

Jiujo Oboro was not angry when she was interrupted. She still closed her eyes and spoke in a nonchalant tone.

"Since both sides knew before entering the arena that this was a life-or-death test, the competition had already begun the moment both participants stood in the arena."

"——To do otherwise would be irresponsible for one's own life."

Kujo Shingo said coldly, "This is sophistry. Rules are rules. They have been set long ago, so how can they be broken at will?"

"I don't mind."

In the middle of the notary seat, Tokugawa Xing's eyes repeatedly looked at Uesugi Tetsu in the field.

She turned her head away and snorted softly, "Since it's said to be a real sword test, then you can't be so naive as to trust your life to others outside the arena after entering the arena."

Kujo Shingo narrowed his eyes and looked at Huijue on the other side.

Huijue, who was holding three smooth and round relics in his hands, smiled cheerfully.

Seeing that Uesugi Tetsu was already prepared, he nodded: "Since the real sword test has already begun, it shouldn't be interrupted by outsiders like us."

"Two against one, Lord Kujo."

Kujo Oboroya said calmly, and after saying this she simply closed her mouth, swallowing back the opening remarks she was about to say.

——On the court, this time it was Uesugi Tetsu who took the initiative.

——Coronal Breathing Method·Form 5!

As a substantial amount of pure white energy gushed out, Uesugi Che's figure crossed a distance of more than ten meters and arrived at the center of the arena in the blink of an eye.

The more than two-meter-long spear suddenly shot forward like a dragon and stabbed towards Xiao Yuelan's heart.

The scorching air wave burned Xiao Yuelan's skin first.

Her pupils shrank slightly, and her whole body suddenly bent to the other side at an extremely abnormal angle like rubber, leaving a hole for the spear to pass through.
