The Puppeteer of Academy City

When Tsuchimikado Motoharu arrived, Ling Xingye had already fought Kanzaki Kaori.

Apart from Hitomi Shiranui and a few members of the Amakusa style, there were not many people watching the battle.

Of course, there's no point in watching the battle—as far as Tsuchimikado Motoharu's subjective judgment is concerned, the battle going on in front of him must be seen clearly by high-speed cameras.

If the dynamic vision and reaction nerves are not developed enough, at best, you can only see two afterimages flying past the designated battlefield, colliding with each other from time to time, arousing harsh sounds of gold and iron intersecting and large sparks.

The only one who can barely see clearly is Ling Xingye himself. As a puppet master, he doesn't need to keep up with Kanzaki Kaori's super-high-speed movement—as long as the sprites can catch up.

Even so, Ling Xingye's movement speed is beyond ordinary people, and the movements of his hands are even more dazzling. His fingers are flying like two clouds of flying smoke.

Both Ling Xingye and Kanzaki Kaori are good at using silk thread cutting methods to attack. They turned the silk thread in their hands into long knives and swiped them wantonly like splashing ink. Draw deep traces.

Tuyumen Motoharu gasped, looked left and right, and quietly took a few steps back.

"Both are monsters...Although I trust their control, it's better to stay away."

When the Amakusa-style girl Wuhe heard his words, she couldn't help saying, "Yeah, the female pope is still so powerful..."

Acting Pope Jian Gongzhai said with a wry smile, "I thought our progress over the years was already good, but now it seems that the gap has widened instead?"

Urakami and Ushibuka also nodded deeply.

"So, is there any meaning to the 'Saint Honkai' that we have worked so hard to develop?" Niu Shen was strongly shaken.

Even if they were just watching this "practice match", they clearly realized that a saint-level battle is not something that "mortals" like them can intervene in.

"In comparison, Ling Xingye is really powerful." Urakami sighed, "It's the first time I've seen an opponent who can stand up to the Pope. Maybe he's qualified to be the Pope's companion." ..."

Tsuchimikado Motoharu whistled, "I think you guys are amazing too, 'Saint Honkai' or something...is it really successfully developed?"

After a little hesitation, Jiangong Saiji nodded, "That's right...it's not something that needs to be kept secret until now—since the female pope already knows—we did develop that ceremony."

Niu shrugged deeply, "But I haven't practiced it once, so whether it will work or not... No one knows."

Tsuchimikado Motoharu said with a surprised expression, "I don't know what you guys think, since you really admire Big Sister, you even developed a ritual specifically for her?"

"No, we definitely didn't mean to hurt the female pope!" Wuhe quickly explained, "It's just...only people with the same strength are qualified to stand by her side—we think so."

That's why when they learned that Kanzaki Kaori was going to duel with Ling Xingye, they would come here to watch the battle.

Looking at Ling Xingye who was active on the battlefield, apart from the admiration of everyone in the Amakusa style, the emotion in their eyes was more envious.

"I'm not a saint, but I have the strength to stand shoulder to shoulder with a saint..." Jian Gong Zhaizi murmured, barely able to hide the envy in his tone.

"Well, in a sense, Xingye is not a mortal." Tsuchimikado Motoharu said.

According to the statement given by the Orthodox Church, "Silver" can't even be counted as a human being.

"By the way, did you tell Ling Xingye about your ultimate move 'Saint Honkai'?" Tuyumen Yuanchun asked.

Amakusa Shiki and the others nodded together, "Because the Pope personally asked, so it's not easy to hide it?"

"Hmm..." Tsuchimikado Motoharu looked at the middle of the battlefield, "It doesn't seem to have any effect, Starry Night is obviously suppressed."

Jian Gongzhai said helplessly, "That was not a ritual that one person could initiate—after all, it was a move that only our Amakusa-style could use. Even if we told Ling Xingye, it wouldn't make much sense."

What's really important is developing the idea behind "Saint Honkai".

The so-called "sage collapse" is aimed at the only "weakness" of the saint, or the only aspect that can barely be called "weakness".

— that is, "the restlessness of the sage".

The so-called saints are born in a very small number of human beings who have a system similar to the "Son of God" Jesus, and thus gain the power of the "Son of God".

They are the "nuclear weapons" in the magical world. They are the existences that can conquer the entire city by one person once they release their true full power.

Simply put, they can be considered "supermen".

But at the end of the day, "Superman" is also human. A sage is a human being who has acquired "divine power"—the power of a **** harnessed in a mortal body.

This creates a paradox that the human body cannot withstand such a powerful force.

As I said before, once a sage liberates his true power, he can destroy cities and countries. But as a price, their bodies would also collapse due to excessive strength.

Therefore, saints basically restrain their own power within a very low range to avoid causing harm to themselves.

Even so, the "very low" lower limit of the saint's perspective is enough to crush mortals and make them stand on top of the world.

Therefore, Jiangong Zhaizi said that this could barely be counted as a "weakness".

"Break the balance of power in the saint's body, use the saint's self-protection mechanism to temporarily lose strength and movement ability, and then take the opportunity to defeat the weak saint." Jiangong Zhaizi finally said, "This is the principle of 'sage collapse' and mechanism."

Tsuchimikado Motoharu said dumbfounded, "You guys really racked your brains, thank you for coming up with such a non-solution..."

"We have no other way." Jian Gongzhai shook his head, this was the only way they could think of.

"So, now let's see if Xingye can use his own way to break the balance of power in Big Sister's head." Tsuchimikado Motoharu stroked his chin.

Ling Xingye on the battlefield naturally has no time to take care of the communication on the sidelines.

He has indeed obtained relevant information about the "Saint Honkai" from Amakusa Shiki, and for the time being, he has obtained a weakness about the Saint.

But it doesn't make much sense.

Because after the actual fight, Ling Xingye once again realized what is called "strong" and what is called "overwhelming strength".

As a magician, Kanzaki Kaori did not deliberately use any magic, but relied on steel wires to fight with the Seven Heavens and Seven Swords.

But it is powerful.

Strength, speed, stamina, skills... There are no dead ends in all aspects, purely powerful.

This is different from Ling Xingye's previous enemies.

Yanshi and Baiyin must not be considered weak, they are also extremely powerful at the peak.

But their "strongness" and Kanzaki Kaori's "strength" are two completely different feelings.

Perhaps because of getting used to it, in Ling Xingye's view, Yanshi or Baiyin might be much easier to deal with than a saint.

There are no extra fancy skills, no weird abilities, no domains such as Fangcunshan and Huzhongjie...

Some are punches and kicks, and the power of raising hands and feet.

It was as if the power of a giant was compressed ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then injected into this ordinary human-sized body, erupting with frightening strength.

Facing Kanzaki Kaori who was getting serious, Ling Xingye put all his energy into it, barely able to catch her movements.

Then, risking the risk of tearing the silk thread, he manipulated Yaoyao with all his strength, and only then did he keep up with her rhythm.

In previous battles, Ling Xingye's best tactic - "Puppet Double Dance" was also unable to work this time.

Because he himself couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the battle.

"What a... monster!" Ling Xingye sighed in his heart.

At the same time, I was a little fortunate—in the previous confrontation, Kanzaki Kaori didn't take it seriously.

"Terrible potential!" On the other side, Kanzaki Kaori also thought to himself, "Sure enough, as Tsuchimikado Motoharu said, Xingye is simply a monster!"

He obviously couldn't adapt to his own speed and strength at the beginning, but as the battle progressed, he was improving and adapting rapidly.

At this time, he has already caught up!

According to this trend, even if the enemy is the water in the rear, there is no problem, right?

Kanzaki Kaori felt a little relieved.
