I'm in a real religion, why are all the people who confess to me girls?

The person talking to Sakayanagi is Kiryuin.

Seeing that Sakayanagi had no intention of stopping her, she immediately rushed over to Itagaki to ask for his opinion.

"Let's see how things go. Besides, even if something goes wrong, you should be able to handle it, right?"

Sakayanagi's confidence in Kiryuin was unbelievable even to Kiryuin himself.

"What are you talking about?! How could I possibly be a match for that monster? If we really fought... my chances of winning would probably be less than 50%—are you trying to trick me?"

Kiryuin immediately realized that Sakayanagi had just tricked her into revealing information. So what was his purpose? Was he trying to get her to admit she was inferior to Amane, or...?

Kiryuin's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

"Are you crazy? You actually let her go up without knowing her current strength?"

Kiryuin was shocked to realize that Sakayanagi, who had never fought against Amane in this area, had no idea how monstrous Amane's strength was, and did not know Amane's current situation. Kiryuin simply could not imagine how Sakayanagi could... how dare he let Amane go up to compete under such circumstances.

Aren't they afraid that Tianyin might actually cause a fatal incident if she gets carried away? It's just a competition; there's absolutely no need to go that far!

"Are you sure? But I remember you were fine even when you were knocked down... If it were you, wouldn't you be able to stop Tenon if you teamed up with Ghost Head?"

She had witnessed countless duels between Tenon and Kiryuin before. Although Tenon always won with an overwhelming advantage, Kiryuin never seemed to have any major problems and remained lively and energetic every day.

Therefore, in Sakayanagi's opinion, if Amane's martial arts strength is 100 points, then Kiryuin should be around 95 points, and Kito should be even higher than Kiryuin, around 98 points.

If anything goes wrong, the two of them working together should be able to stop Amane. At the very least, there are Horikita Manabu, Horikita Suzune, and Nanono Masashi, and they won't just watch things get worse.

Judging from Kiryuin's reaction, things seemed to have gone beyond her expectations.

"I say, Miss Sakayanagi, you really think highly of me. If you gave me a modern firearm, I could take out ten of Tenon, let alone one. But this is a hand-to-hand combat competition. The most likely scenario is that I would be killed the moment I get there. Normally, it's just sparring, but it's a completely different level when we're serious. What can I say to you?"

Kiryuin clutched his head in anguish.

She could only hope that the ghost head would be killed instantly without any struggle, because only under such circumstances could Tianyin maintain her sanity.

"It seems there was some mistake this time. I'll prepare in advance. Maple, could you please stay here and keep an eye on the situation? If Tianyin gets out of control, please buy me some time."

After finishing her speech, Sakayanagi slowly left with the help of a girl.

Kiryuin was left dumbfounded, watching Sakayanagi's retreating figure.

"Hey! Don't include me here... Damn it!!! Whether it's Amane or Sakayanagi, these geniuses are all so annoying, I'm going crazy!!"

As Kiryuin began to lose his temper, the match had already started.

Although it was supposed to be a Muay Thai match, neither side followed the rules of Muay Thai, making it look rather incongruous at first glance.

Since Gui Tou couldn't move much, he could only hold his breath and concentrate on Tian Yin's movements. In his opinion, it would be enough to defend against Tian Yin's first wave of attacks and give him a chance to make a move.

Tianyin kept her promise and abandoned her attempt to move, keeping a watchful eye on the ghost head.

Both sides were waiting for an opportunity, but the spectators on both sides of the stands were getting impatient and were urging them to finish the fight quickly.

The rising and falling sounds caught Ghost Head's attention. Just as Ghost Head turned around to look, a gust of wind rushed towards him.

flaw?

A smile appeared on Ghost Head's face. He knew that by revealing such a huge opening, Tianyin would be unable to hold back and launch a strong attack first. Next, all he had to do was...

Click.

The sound of bone cracking was incredibly crisp.

Gui Tou suddenly knelt down on the ground, and everyone stopped urging him on.

Just now, Tianyin seemed to be about to chop the neck of the ghost head who turned around to look behind her, but at the critical moment, she ducked and dodged the ghost head's counterattack, while simultaneously chopping the ghost head's other uninjured leg with her own hand chop.

Then, Kito's legs bent and he fell to his knees as if a link had been broken. It might sound strange, but that's how it was. Kito tried to stand up several times, but all his attempts failed.

He could only continue to fight Tianyin while remaining kneeling.

To be honest, he had already lost the match, but he was unwilling to accept it. He was unwilling to accept that Tianyin had made him kneel down in front of her so easily.

Are you kidding me?!

Despite gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, Gui Tou actually stood up again.

"Hey, really? That guy Kito's really going all out!"

Long Yuan made nonsensical jokes, but his expression grew increasingly serious.

The match was already this intense at the very beginning; what would happen next? Ryuen began to anticipate the two's next moves.

Chapter 452: I Want to Be Willful Sometimes

"Don't push yourself. Losing to me isn't anything to be ashamed of."

Ordinary people might find it hard to imagine what kind of tone Tianyin used to say such things. Guitou found it extremely grating. Just as Guitou was about to retaliate, he discovered that Tianyin actually looked very serious.

In other words... that last sentence wasn't meant to be sarcastic, was it serious? What a joke! If it was serious, it can only mean that either this person is extremely arrogant, or she truly possesses abilities superior to the demon head, which is why she can so calmly utter hurtful "truths".

So, which type is Tianyin? That goes without saying, right?

"I haven't lost yet!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than a swift black shadow lunged at Tianyin's neck with lightning speed.

Tianyin stood motionless, as if she hadn't reacted at all, but her next move seemed to be telling everyone just how big the gap in strength between her and Guitou really was.

Whoosh!

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out.

Tianyin tilted her head to easily avoid the fatal blow, and then moved her neck again to dodge the ghost's change of attack.

Oni Tou's forehead began to bead with sweat, not from exhaustion, but from the immense mental pressure of putting himself in a life-or-death situation to launch an attack, which made him feel breathless.

Tianyin made no move to retaliate; with her fists clenched in front of her chest, she seemed to still be looking for an opportunity.

The pain in his legs and ankles constantly reminded Gui Tou that he had to finish the job quickly.

The ghost head quickly launched a strike, then its arms rapidly repeated push-pull mechanical attacks, which looked somewhat comical but were indeed attacks.

Tianyin quickly raised her arm and forcefully blocked the demon's attack, which was as fierce as a storm.

As the black snake head lashed at Tianyin's arm like whips, making it seem as if Tianyin couldn't even retaliate, many people's hearts clenched.

Only a small number of people kept their eyes on Tianyin's eyes, and her calm gaze told everyone that she was not flustered in the slightest.

Although the sounds were somewhat chaotic, Tenon could detect the frequency of the demon's attacks from the pain in her arm.

Then, just as the ghost head withdrew its hand, Tianyin suddenly dropped its defense.

"what?"

Gui Tou never expected that the barrier he had worked so hard to build would open in this way.

"You had a lot of fun just now, didn't you?"

Tianyin punched Guitou squarely in the chest.

"Ugh, cough cough cough cough cough, cough cough cough..."

Gui Tou clutched his chest in pain, trying to ease the agony, when Tian Yin suddenly raised her leg and delivered a beautiful high roundhouse kick to Gui Tou's head. Ignoring the pain, Gui Tou quickly assumed a defensive stance.

What was unexpected was the immense power carried by this whip kick; the moment the demon head tried to block it, his entire body was sent flying as if he had been violently slammed into something.

Pfft! !

Kito's body leaped out and hovered in the air for a full two seconds before landing. Kito rolled a few times with difficulty to dissipate the remaining force and barely prevent him from ending the match, but no matter how he tried, he could not stand up again.

Left with no other choice, Gui Tou could only kneel down to support his body and watch Tian Yin with high vigilance.

Gui Tou immediately noticed the dense red marks on Tian Yin's fair arm, some of which were even oozing blood beads.

His initial attack was effective, and Tianyin was also injured.

After receiving the somewhat amusing good news that even Tianyin would be injured, Guitou decided to make a final gamble, hoping that with a bit of luck, he might be able to take Tianyin down with him.

Bad luck... hey.

"You're pretty tough."

Tianyin slowly approached the ghost head. Although it was said that she would give the ghost head one leg, it did not mean that Tianyin could not move.

Most of the marks on her arms were left by the demons through beatings, with only a few scratches from their fingernails.

Couldn't that guy at least trim his nails?

However, compared to his own insignificant injuries, the injuries on the ghost head's body were quite serious.

Gui Tou's leg was already broken, and his chest had been hit by a punch with half the force of Tian Yin's. It was obvious that his internal organs were injured, not to mention Gui Tou's arm...

Perhaps Gui Tou hadn't noticed yet, but in Tian Yin's eyes, Gui Tou's arm was trembling violently, but Gui Tou seemed oblivious, his eyes darting around as if he were planning his next attack.

In other words... his arm had actually lost sensation?

Or has the numbness not disappeared yet?

Tianyin shook her head. None of this mattered anymore; the next strike would determine the true victor.

"Hey, you won, but I don't want to lose like this, kneeling on my knees. Can you help me up?"

Has Gui Tou admitted defeat?

The people present were somewhat surprised. In just a few moves, that arrogant ghost was about to admit defeat?

Tianyin revealed a slightly sinister smile.

If it were Kiryuin or Sakayanagi, they would know that this is a sign that Amane is about to unleash her power.

Unfortunately, Kito was unaware of this important information.

"What a pity, let me help you up."

Tianyin smiled as she approached Guitou's side. Just as she bent down, Guitou's gaze sharpened.

"Get hurt!!!"

Ghost Head once again transformed his palm into a snake's head and attacked, then smashed it down on Tianyin's throat with even greater force.

That's right, it was smashed towards.

It would have been more appropriate to use a stab, but he only felt something was wrong with his hand when the ghost was about to launch an attack. But it was too late; the arrow was already on the bowstring, and he had no choice but to release it. He was only slightly taken aback before continuing to forcefully smash his numb hand towards Tianyin.

Even if the move wasn't perfect, he used all his strength in this one. Even an animal would surely die if it took this hit.

At this moment, Gui Tou no longer cared about the consequences; his eyes were filled only with the desire for victory.

call---!!!

Even when filmed with a high-speed camera, that attack was enough to be considered an afterimage. The immense force tore through the air, briefly creating a gust of wind that stung Tianyin's face.

Feeling the impending threat, Tianyin laughed heartily.

It's been a long time since I've encountered such a formidable opponent, so it would be inappropriate for me to hold back.

As the saying goes, to strike a snake, you must strike its vital spot. Now, all that is needed is to strike the ghost's arm from the side, and the ghost will immediately abandon all its efforts and be forced to stop its attack. In Tianyin's view, this is a very easy thing to do.

However, Tianyin did not want to adopt the optimal solution.

"I sometimes want to be a little impulsive."

Tianyin Fist retracted at the waist and then quickly threw a punch at the almost unrecognizable snake shadow. Strangely, although Tianyin was throwing a punch with her second hand, her fist arrived at an incredible speed. Just when the ghost head's hand was still quite a distance from Tianyin's throat, Tianyin's swift punch tore through the air and collided directly with the ghost head's hand. The stalemate lasted less than a second before the ghost head's hand was deflected to the side. Tianyin's punch, carrying the residual power of the ghost head's sure-kill strike, once again broke through the ghost head's hastily raised arm.

Finally, he slammed the fist into the ghost's face.

The fist sank deep into the ghost's face, and the huge impact caused the ghost's entire upper body to arch backward in an exaggerated posture.

Boom! ! !

A muffled thud, audible even to those in the stands, finally echoed from the arena after Tianyin's attack was completed.

Everyone looked nervously at the ghost head that had been hit by Tianyin's exaggerated punch, wondering if it would really lose.

Only Tianyin remained in an attacking stance, warily watching the ghost head whose head was now tilted back to the ground.

She knew very well that the outcome of this final decisive blow was not yet fully decided.

Chapter 453: Riot

Just as people were worried about Gui Tou's safety, Gui Tou, who had been severely injured, was unusually clear-headed.

He now had every reason to end the match; he believed that in his current state, Tianyin would definitely not be able to continue the pursuit.

Although he looked miserable, his face covered in blood from his nose, making him look quite frightening, Gui Tou actually knew very well that his main injuries were his chest cavity and his broken left leg.

If he were taken away for treatment immediately, it might not be a big problem, but his body could never withstand another terrifying attack like that.
