You Ditched an R-Rank, Now That I’m an SSR, You Wanna Cry? Chapter 61

Snow King Zhang was being extremely rational, making an immediate decision, "Wife, let's surrender. There's no need to fight anymore, let's save our spiritual energy for the next match!"

But Dawnbreaker General flatly refused. Her face, already crisscrossed with countless cuts from the cherry blossom blades, showed a flash of excitement. "No way! It's rare to encounter an SSR. I have to fight!"

Snow King Zhang looked at her battered, wounded state, a flicker of heartache in his eyes, and tried his best to persuade her, "But there's basically no chance of winning. Why do this? Why put yourself through this?"

Dawnbreaker General turned her head and glared at him!

Instantly, Snow King Zhang didn't dare say another word...

Since that was the case, he had no choice but to indulge his Contracted Spirit wife's madness this once.

The audience on the island ship watched Xia Yuan with disbelief, "The streamer said he's an SSR?"

"Don't even say it, but with this level of power, he really might be!"

"Just based on him catching Dawnbreaker's ultimate move bare-handed earlier proves his strength. It really is possible he's an SSR!"

"My goodness, he's this powerful without even using his full strength? If he went all out, wouldn't he blow the sky off?!"

"SSR... truly terrifying!"

"......"

Mo Shiyu whispered a reminder, "Xia Yuan, your identity..."

Xia Yuan said calmly, "Relax. Just this once, they won't be able to detect anything amiss."

Dawnbreaker General stood ready, her expression showing a hint of madness. "Come on! Let me witness your full power, SSR!"

In that instant!

The ocean of cherry blossoms that had been floating throughout the entire arena space all returned to Xia Yuan's side.

Then the pink cherry blossoms spread out from both sides, encircling half the arena, trapping Dawnbreaker General, Snow King Zhang, and all his Contracted Spirits within!

Full power?

Xia Yuan's expression remained icy as he slowly said, "You? You're not qualified enough."

He raised his hand, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, "It's time... to end this battle."

"Bankai!"

"Senkei Senbonzakura Kageyoshi!"

As his words fell.

All the cherry blossom blades within the arena condensed into countless pink longswords, neatly arranged, covering half the field!

They swirled and danced around everyone!

This majestic, spectacular cherry blossom sword formation shocked the entire audience, overwhelmingly gorgeous!

Snow King Zhang's forehead was beaded with sweat as he looked up at the sky full of cherry blossom swords. "Hey, hey, is this really a move a level 54 Contracted Spirit can pull off?! SSR truly is unfathomable. No wonder they're hailed as national strategic weapons..."

Mo Shiyu and Little Black also looked up at this scene, thinking only how beautiful it was!

They weren't panicked and boldly admired the view.

After all, these cherry blossom swords wouldn't attack them.

But Snow King Zhang's Contracted Spirits were under immense pressure!

They prepared their defenses once more.

Dawnbreaker General, however, charged straight at Xia Yuan, shouting, "This is a fighting style that completely abandons defense, isn't it?!"

Xia Yuan had to admire her insight. He pointed his finger at the charging Red-skirted Snowman and said coldly, "Your reaction is quick, but... it's already too late..."

"Ultimate Technique: One Bite, a Thousand Blossoms!"

Where Xia Yuan's fingertip pointed, the cherry blossom sword formation's blades aimed!

Almost simultaneously!

All the cherry blossom longswords turned their tips toward the moving Dawnbreaker General and launched their assault!

The sky-filling cherry blossom sword rain already had the momentum of ten thousand swords returning to their origin, its power immense, shaking heaven and earth!

For a moment, every hair on Dawnbreaker General's body stood on end. She scraped her sword across her shield, sparks flying, instantly igniting the entire shield!

"Impervious to All Methods!"

The shield in her hand suddenly grew several times larger, enveloping her entire body.

Immediately after, the storm-like cherry blossom sword rain descended, *bang bang bang bang*...!

Seeing this, Snow King Zhang waved his hand urgently, commanding all his Support Spirits to unleash their ultimate abilities together, layering all their buffs upon her!

Yet even so, Dawnbreaker General's figure swayed unsteadily in the sword rain, pressed down so hard she couldn't straighten up.

Her shield was already densely packed with pink cherry blossom swords!

"Ahhhh!"

But she was still resisting stubbornly, using her sword to prop herself up from the ground, trying to stand.

The fans in the live stream chat snapped back to reality and, seeing this, collectively cheered for her:

"Hang in there, Dawnbreaker!"

"Don't lose!"

"You are the strongest!"

"Hold on! Just hold on through this wave, and you'll have a chance to counterattack!"

"An SR defeating an SSR, you'll forge a legend!"

"......"

Hearing these cheers, Dawnbreaker General let out a loud shout, as if she truly gained strength, and stood up again!

Just as the audience thought she was about to hold on!

Xia Yuan's eyes turned icy. He curled his finger and pressed down, his voice cool and indifferent, "Who gave you permission to stand up?"

"Kneel!"

The attack frequency and speed of the pink cherry blossom swords continuously escalated!

They were everywhere, penetrating from every angle, 360 degrees with no blind spots!

Even if Dawnbreaker General's shield could withstand it, the defensive field around her shield was on the verge of shattering.

Dawnbreaker, who had just stood up, was instantly forced back to the ground, kneeling on one knee.

She held on bitterly for a long time, but finally couldn't endure any longer.

The defense around her shield was breached. Pink cherry blossom swords covered her entire body, offering her a gorgeous curtain call!

Snow King Zhang's heart ached terribly, but he knew this was his wife's choice...

With this scene, she should have forced that SSR to use his full power, right?!

After all, in Snow King Zhang's understanding, a skill like "Ultimate Technique: One Bite, a Thousand Blossoms" must have required the SSR's full effort!

The other party saying "not qualified" was probably just tough talk...

This way, she still showcased her own brilliance. Even in losing, it was a kind of victory!

Thinking this, Snow King Zhang instantly felt proud of his wife, his Contracted Spirit!

After Dawnbreaker's body dissipated, returning to the Spirit Tamer's space.

He stood up and shouted with full vigor, "I surrender!"

After the Contracted Spirit Arena judged the match complete, a mechanical female voice sounded:

"Congratulations to Knife in Rainy Night Without Umbrella for the victory!"

"Great Xia Region Ranked Match Space Server Announcement: Congratulations to Knife in Rainy Night Without Umbrella for achieving a 7-Win Streak!!!"

Xia Yuan released his Bankai, re-condensing the blade and sheathing it.

The opponent was at least sensible.

Even though Snow King Zhang lost, the entire audience on the island ship still cheered for him:

"That was already amazing, fighting an SSR for so long!"

"Yeah, too strong! They even forced out the opponent's ultimate move. Dawnbreaker is forever the GOAT!"

"Watching this made me cry!"

"Long live the Snowman Family!"

"This stream was too shocking. The opponent was just ridiculously strong, and his skills were gorgeous beyond compare. I'm going to follow his battles too!"

"As expected of a high-level match, the mutual strategizing, I learned a lot watching!"

"......"

Hearing this, Snow King Zhang grew even more confident.

His Contracted Spirit wife was a female general capable of battling an SSR!

Snow King Zhang immediately shouted toward Mo Shiyu, "Young lady, that was truly a spectacular battle! Your SSR used his full power too, right?"

"Remember my name. I am... Mr. Zhang!"

Mo Shiyu: "Uh......"

She genuinely didn't know how to respond.

Full power?

Xia Yuan's full power?

He just used one of his newly learned skills, and one he wasn't even very familiar with at that...

Forget it. The opponent was indeed a respectable player. Might as well give him some face and tell him the truth.

Mo Shiyu smoothed the stray hairs at her forehead, "Well..."

"He probably used about... thirty percent of his strength, at most."

"Uncle, even so, your Contracted Spirit was indeed plenty tough."

Snow King Zhang laughed heartily, "No need for tough talk at a time like this. Such a powerful ultimate technique, how could it only be thirty percent effort...?"

Mo Shiyu sighed, too lazy to explain further.

Xia Yuan's combat power was indeed something normal Spirit Tamers couldn't comprehend. Can't blame the other guy...

Time will answer everything anyway.

Mo Shiyu remembered she had another match coming up soon and would be starting her stream. So, in the last second before the arena shattered, she cupped her hands around her mouth like a megaphone and shouted toward the spectator seats:

"I have an announcement!"

"We'll be starting our own stream later! Please search for the ID: Knife in Rainy Night Without Umbrella!"

"Thank you all for your sup... support!"

It was her first time doing this live stream thing; her spiel was still a bit immature.

Snow King Zhang was dumbfounded.

No way, dude!

Come on, deceive!

Come on, ambush?!

You wait until the very last second to announce this, poaching viewers from my stream?!

Don't you know the rules?!

Snow King Zhang let out a final roar:

"Young lady, you called *me* shady! You're the one who's truly disregarding martial virtue!"

Unfortunately, the arena had already dissipated, and his words couldn't reach them anymore...
