Chapter 545: Giant Mantis vs. Master Itachi (Part )
When the giant mantis appeared on the stage, everyone was stunned at first, and then whispers began to rise.
"Although this giant mantis is not common, it is not a rare elf. However, this size is definitely not an ordinary giant mantis that you can see often."
A middle-aged man touched his chin, with a hint of surprise and curiosity in his eyes. He tilted his head slightly and looked at the giant mantis carefully, as if trying to find something different from its appearance.
A young trainer next to him also said:
"Indeed, it must have taken a lot of effort to cultivate the giant mantis to be so tall and strong."
There was a hint of envy in his eyes. He leaned forward and stood on tiptoe unconsciously so that he could see more clearly.
Everyone was secretly wondering who this Wen Qi was. First there was the troublesome earth turtle, and now there was such an extraordinary giant mantis.
An old man spoke slowly, his voice low and hoarse:
"This young man should not be underestimated. He has such strength at such a young age. He will become a great man in the future."
His brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a hint of solemnity in his eyes, as if he had foreseen a storm in the future.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Wen Qi again. The original look of contempt had long disappeared, replaced by deep awe and fear.
"I thought that the Tutai turtle was his limit, but I didn't expect there would be even more powerful ones coming."
A red-haired young man shook his head with a wry smile on his face. His hands hung limply at both sides of his body, as if his confidence had been shaken by the series of misfortunes.
Qin Ming's expression became increasingly ugly. He stared at the giant mantis, his eyes full of worry.
"Although this giant mantis seems to be at the late stage of the gym, its fighting spirit is much stronger than I thought."
He whispered to his companion beside him, his voice trembling slightly, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He raised his hand to wipe it, but found that his palms were also full of sweat.
He looked at Master Itachi and saw that Master Itachi's tail was wagging gently, and the frequency was much faster than usual. This was a sign of its nervousness.
Master Itachi stared at the giant mantis with his eyes fixed, his expression mixed with solemnity and fear, as if he was evaluating the powerful opponent in front of him.
Qin Ming secretly groaned in his heart:
"Master Itachi is so nervous. This battle will be extremely difficult. We might really lose."
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself, but his accelerating heartbeat betrayed his inner anxiety.
At this moment, the whole venue was filled with a tense atmosphere, and the audience held their breath, waiting for this thrilling battle to begin.
It seemed as if the smell of gunpowder could be smelled in the air. Everyone was praying silently for this battle in their hearts, or secretly hoping for a miracle to happen.
With the order, the smoke of battle spread instantly. The giant mantis was like a silver lightning, launching the first attack.
It moved at high speed, and its body instantly turned into a blurry light and shadow, speeding across the arena.
Then, the Lightning Flash skill was activated, and a dazzling white light cut through the air like a sharp blade, heading straight for Master Itachi.
At the same time, the giant mantis cleverly created multiple shadow clones. For a moment, the ring was full of its shadows, making it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake, which was dazzling.
Master Itachi, a master of combat with a long-standing reputation in the field of fighting, was caught off guard by the swift attack of Mantis.
It tried to quickly approach the giant mantis and start the close combat that it was good at.
However, the speed of the giant mantis was too fast. Every time Master Itachi sprinted, he seemed to be trapped in an illusory maze of light and shadow, and could never touch the opponent's real body.
There was a flash of anxiety and confusion in Master Weasel's eyes. He kept tapping his feet on the ground, trying to adjust his rhythm and find an opportunity to break through.
But the giant mantis that followed it like a shadow was always out of reach. Its hands trembled slightly, as if it was annoyed at not being able to exert its full strength.
Qin Ming stood at the edge of the ring and witnessed all this. The expression on his face froze instantly, replaced by full disbelief.
"How is this possible? How can a giant mantis be so fast?"
His eyes widened, veins popped out on his forehead, and sweat rolled down like a fine curtain of beads. His voice trembled a little, as if he was questioning everything he saw.
In his understanding, although the speed of Giant Mantis is good, it is far inferior to that of his master Itachi. However, the current scene makes him feel as if he is in an absurd dream.
His body leaned forward slightly, his hands clenched unconsciously, as if he wanted to rush forward to help his master Itachi.
The contestants in the audience were also shocked.
"Wow, this giant mantis is so fast! Master Itachi is a master of speed, but he can't catch up!"
A young contestant shouted in surprise, his eyes widened and his body leaned forward, almost falling from the audience seats, trying to find out what was going on.
The contestants next to them were also whispering to each other, their faces full of shock and curiosity. A contestant wearing glasses pushed his glasses up and frowned and said:
"There must be something fishy going on here. The speed of the giant mantis shouldn't be so exaggerated."
At this time, a contestant couldn't help but ask Li Lei:
"Li Lei, do you know why this giant mantis is so powerful? It looks like it can do it with ease!"
Li Lei frowned, shook his head in confusion, and said:
"I don't know either. Although there are items like light stones that can increase speed, the speed of this giant mantis is far beyond common sense. Light stones can never have such a magical effect."
There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, and he folded his hands over his chest, thinking hard about the mystery.
Qin Ming knew the situation was serious and shouted decisively:
"Master Itachi, calm down, hold your defense, and pay attention to your opponent's every move!"
His voice was steady and powerful, and although there was worry in his eyes, there was more determination and courage.
Master Itachi heard the instruction, nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and quickly adjusted his state.
It spread its legs and planted them firmly on the ground, raised its palms and took a defensive posture. Its eyes were fixed on the giant mantis like an eagle, and it no longer chased it blindly.
Its expression became serious and focused, as if telling its opponent that it would not be easily defeated.
Wen Qi saw Master Itachi's reaction and secretly praised him:
"As expected of an experienced trainer, you responded so quickly. However, I have confidence in the strength of the Giant Claw, so I will let it do what it wants."
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, his eyes were full of trust, and he crossed his arms across his chest, watching calmly.
There was a hint of anticipation in his eyes, as if he was waiting for the giant mantis's wonderful performance.
