Chapter 576: Chapter 575 "Bonding Reaction" and Elemental Weapons

Squeak—

Accompanied by splattering sparks and a sharp noise, Tsuruta Yumi’s katana sliced into the tumbling car, splitting the abandoned vehicle in half.

At the same time, a faint gleam of the blade flashed through the clutter filling the sky. For a moment, it seemed as if time had frozen, with the sliced debris quietly suspended in mid-air. Delicate pale blue Ice Flowers spread out from the cut surfaces, eventually covering the surfaces of those objects.

Crack!

In the silence, a dense cracking sound emerged as the debris covered in Ice Flowers shattered into icy powder, leaving a void in front of Tsuruta Yumi.

Time resumed its flow, with the upturned concrete ground dragging debris past both sides of Tsuruta Yumi and violently striking the street behind her.

In the live stream, Tan Xin’an gaped in amazement, stammering, "It’s... it’s unbelievable, is this really a power humans can wield? It’s simply... simply."

Dong Ningshuang breathed rapidly, watching this scene on the live broadcast and momentarily unsure of what to say.

Meanwhile, the comment section in the live stream exploded.

"This this this... this must be fake, I must be dreaming!!"

"Tsuruta Yumi-chan is awesome!"

"Why don’t you go back to Fusang upstairs, it’s annoying."

"Haha, dare to bring someone from the Central Military Academy here?"

Shao Zifeng’s eyes were intently fixed on the katana in Tsuruta Yumi’s hands.

Did Han River iron ore leak out?

No!

That’s not right.

Han River iron ore, as a controlled substance by the Daxia military, couldn’t possibly be tampered with. Moreover, weapons forged from Han River iron ore would present a pale blue color, unlike the shining appearance of the katana.

At that moment, he recalled the Hidden Edge scabbard. Could it be that Tsuruta Yumi also possessed a heritage piece in her hands? It wasn’t out of the question—preservation of famous swords from Fusang was consistently better than in Daxia, and producing a few heritage pieces like Hidden Edge was not impossible.

Xiang Nan looked at the small dagger in his hand and struggled to say, "How the hell are we supposed to fight this."

Shao Zifeng shook his head, "Look at Tsuruta Yumi’s condition."

Hearing this, everyone shifted their gaze from the sword to Tsuruta Yumi’s figure.

On the main street of the urban ruin, debris was everywhere, with ice powder and dust continuously spreading amidst the chaotic airflow. Tsuruta Yumi was panting and leaning on her katana, the blue luminescence in her eyes flickering, seemingly burdened significantly by her recent strike.

At that moment, the crystal-clear ice powder by her side became chaotic, and a military saber emitting a blue glow tore through the dust, aiming a slash at Tsuruta Yumi’s slender neck.

Ding~

Tsuruta Yumi hastily blocked; the military saber and katana collided, emitting a crisp sound while ice chips mixed with sparks scattered all around. Before Tsuruta Yumi could react, another slash of the military saber struck down like a snake’s tongue.

Hiss—

The blade’s light flashed, and a slash appeared on Tsuruta Yumi’s shoulder, with the gushing blood instantly freezing into red ice crystals, revealing a sinister beauty under the light.

Tsuruta Yumi’s face paled slightly; the blue luminescence in her eyes flickered as she abruptly flipped her katana upwards.

Ding ding.

With two consecutive crisp sounds, the owner of the military saber flipped in mid-air, evading the upward strike of the katana, and landed firmly on the ground.

Lu Lu, tall and wearing an army green combat uniform, had a spirited face under her clean, short hair. In her hands, she held a katana about 40 centimeters long. Aside from her long legs, what stood out the most was the pair of faint blue, illusionary antlers on her forehead, clearly also having initiated a Bonding reaction.

Lu Lu sized up Tsuruta Yumi, raised her sword brows, and with a face full of valor, flashed a handsome smile, "Pretty girl, let’s see whose blade is quicker."

Before the word "quick" had completely left her mouth, Lu Lu’s twin blades whirled, speedily thrusting forward.

Ding ding ding!

The injured Tsuruta Yumi, forced to counter, clashed her katana fiercely against Lu Lu’s military blades.

Under the direct lights of the dome, Lu Lu’s dual blades moved as extensions of her arms, rapidly slashing at Tsuruta Yumi’s katana, with each strike causing tiny Ice Flowers to flicker, seemingly adding special effects to each attack.

Tsuruta Yumi was forced on the defensive, her petite frame stepping backwards under the onslaught.

However, she soon realized that, with the increased frequency of Lu Lu’s attacks, ice-type elemental particles were continually invading her body through her katana.

Although temporarily counteracting with ice elements was possible, the overly drained Tsuruta Yumi could not hold out much longer, and once the ’Bonding reaction’ was lifted...

Thinking this, Tsuruta Yumi secretly gritted her teeth.

"Roar!"

At that moment, a series of growls and collisions could be heard not far away. Using her peripheral vision, she saw that Kyoto University’s other four team members were under attack, and more frightfully, each of the four competitors from the Central Military Academy displayed their own ’Bonding reaction’.

Lu Lu teasingly laughed, "Pretty girl, daring to be distracted while fighting me!"

"Damn!"

Tsuruta Yumi cursed under her breath, rolling away after taking a hard hit, and when she regained her footing, a fantastical Space Rift tore open behind her, unleashing a visible torrent of frost.

"Is this all you’ve got?" Lu Lu stopped her movements, grinning as her forehead’s ice-blue antlers emitted tiny ice elemental particles, "Then let’s end it!"

"Boom!"

The ground beneath Tsuruta Yumi suddenly surged, exploding into countless ice shards, propelling her into the air while tearing her uniform, and leaving trails of blood on her delicate skin.

"There it is! Tsuruta Yumi’s Snow Maiden and Lu Lu’s Frozen Soil Giant Deer, a spectacular contest of blade skills. Our Martial God, Lu Lu, triumphs over Tsuruta Yumi. Everyone join me in shouting, Martial God rocks!!!"

In the livestream, Tan Xin’an was so excited that it was slightly improper, but the audience, infected by his enthusiasm, quickly flooded the screen with "Martial God rocks!"

Hu Shiwu rubbed his nose, dismissing his covetous thoughts towards the Martial God, "What’s with those blades from the Central Military Academy? Normally, cold weapons shouldn’t be easily destroyed by elemental breakdown within their structure..."

Casar watched the screen’s portrayal of the Martial God, his hand caressing his own short blade, a look of envy on his face.

Shao Zifeng knew what was happening but didn’t say much. It seems the military is quite satisfied with weapons forged from Han River iron ore; they have already begun promoting their use at the military academy.

In the following contest, Tsuruta Yumi was severely injured, with the Frozen Soil Giant Deer overpowering the Snow Maiden,

Soon after Lu Lu joined the besieging, the rest from Kyoto University quickly lost their ability to combat, their hands frozen onto the hilt of the katana.

As the five youngsters displaying the ice type ’Bonding reaction’ stood in the spotlight accepting cheers from the audience, it represented not only another quarterfinal spot secured by Daxia, but also the official exposure of elemental weapons to the public eye.

This marked an important milestone in the new era of Combat Training Master.

Inspired, the "Father of Elemental Weapons" Shao Zifeng looked affectionately at his teammates.

"Who has a social media account with lots of followers? Mind throwing down a challenge for me?"

Shao Zifeng thought carefully about Yu Xiaoyu’s reasoning; indeed his match might involve some underhanded tricks, but to be on the safe side, issuing a challenge seemed wise.
