You Ditched an R-Rank, Now That I’m an SSR, You Wanna Cry? Chapter 65
Mo Shiyu opened a livestream titled "The Strongest Cherry Blossom Swordsman, Live Challenging the Highest Ranked Win Streak, If I Lose One I'll Eat!!!"
As soon as the stream went live, many Spirit Tamers who had followed her before entered the spectator room.
Seeing people arrive, Xia Yuan coughed a few times and quickly entered the state of the character Byakuya Kuchiki, his expression gradually turning cold and aloof.
The spectator room was bustling with activity, various voices ringing out:
"First!"
"Ahhh, I finally caught the stream of the great master Knife in Rainy Night Without Umbrella!"
"The character customization is so beautiful, this is such a feast for the eyes. After watching so many abstract streamers, I've finally gotten something good!"
"Big Brother Contracted Spirit's skills are so flashy and beautiful! Cherry blossom sword energy just buried the opponent, it's like watching a movie, too shocking!"
"Say no more, I'll show my respect by unleashing Bankai first!"
"Holy crap! Knife in Rainy Night, she seems to already have a seven-win streak, and these are still placement matches?"
"This title is really exaggerated, challenging the highest win streak? Relying on just one level 55 Contracted Spirit?!"
"Passerby here, I just want to ask, if you lose, are you really going to eat?"
"Haha, waiting for the streamer to eat!"
"..."
On the spectator stands, various small gifts rained down towards Mo Shiyu and Xia Yuan, special effects flying everywhere.
This was Mo Shiyu's first livestream, and she was a bit at a loss, unsure of what to say.
She held back for a good while before speaking in a cold and haughty tone:
"Thank you all for these... meager gifts. If you're poor, you don't need to send any."
"As for those questioning our strength, just watch. We won't lose a single bit, much less eat a single bit!"
"We're about to start ranked matches."
Xia Yuan closed his eyes to rest. This streamer was way too arrogant!
But he liked it.
Come to think of it, Mo Shiyu had always been like this: a little girl who acted spoiled at home, but proud and coldly glamorous to the outside world.
Moreover, ever since she had spent a long time with him, she had also started to become quite the smooth talker.
She seemed to be gradually taking on his shape...
"Is the streamer really this cocky? She's even mocking us!"
"She's looking down on how little we're sending!"
"Wuwu, I'm being looked down on, but why do I feel a bit excited..."
"With each win, the opponents you face will be stronger, the difficulty will keep increasing. So, the streamer will definitely eat!"
"..."
Fortunately, however, the Spirit Tamers in the spectator stands had long since let reason follow beauty.
Mo Shiyu in her Saber form, even when cursing people out, exuded an unparalleled charm. It was impossible to feel any dislike!
On the contrary, some people were getting a bit excited...
Mo Shiyu summoned Little Black and started the ranked match.
"Little Paimon" wore a sullen face, looking utterly displeased.
She felt completely unimportant!
There was no place for her in this household anymore...
Mo Shiyu and Xia Yuan's placement matches continued!
"Matchmaking successful!"
This time, the opponent was still a powerhouse in the Diamond tier.
And at the Diamond tier, in a Spirit Tamer's team composition, regardless of overall strength, there was almost always at least one SR Contracted Spirit!
Spirit Tamers at this level, once outside the ranked space, were almost all individuals of extremely high status and position.
Both sides finished preparations. This time, there was no idle talk; they went straight into battle!
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"Battle start!"
As the mechanical female voice faded.
Xia Yuan had already pointed his blade downward, released it to fall into the ground, and unleashed Bankai right from the start!
Since they had just started streaming, they needed to start with something big to shut the mouths of those doubters.
And give them a little bit of a shock!
"Bankai..."
"Senbonzakura Kageyoshi!"
The long blade, the giant sword, ascended into the air!
Towering and magnificent!
The blade rapidly dissipated, a sea of pink cherry blossoms enveloping the entire arena!
While almost everyone was still in a state of bewilderment, Xia Yuan's thin lips moved slightly as he whispered again:
"Gokei: Senbonzakura Kageyoshi!"
Gokei was another form of Senbonzakura Kageyoshi!
Different from Senkei's pink cherry blossom sword array.
It gathered the billions of cherry blossom blades of Senbonzakura Kageyoshi, forming them all into a spherical shape, enveloping the enemy!
Then, it would slice the opponent to pieces from every angle, leaving no blind spot!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Just as everyone was stunned for a few seconds, marveling at how beautiful and gorgeous this move was.
The arena was already completely covered by a giant sphere composed of cherry blossom blades.
The cherry blossoms flowed and circulated, life after life without end!
Xia Yuan, along with all of the opponent's Contracted Spirits and the Spirit Tamer, had already been wrapped inside.
Mo Shiyu and Little Black, however, were isolated outside.
The two of them stared blankly at the enormous cherry blossom sphere before them.
Yet another new form of the skill!
Was Xia Yuan still hiding more?!
At this moment, the opponent Spirit Tamer and Contracted Spirits finally reacted:
"The situation is bad, we're sealed in!"
"Hurry, take him out!"
"We have to break out!"
A group of Contracted Spirits launched an assault towards Xia Yuan, and the opponent's SR turned out to be a control-type Contracted Spirit, who directly hit Xia Yuan with a major control skill.
However...
Xia Yuan gazed at them with indifferent eyes and slowly said:
"You've worked hard."
"The battle..."
"Is already over."
As his words fell.
The entire sphere composed of cherry blossom blades began to flow madly, continuously shrinking its range!
Pink light flashed brilliantly!
A fierce wind suddenly rose on the arena, cherry blossoms dancing wildly, causing exclamations of surprise to continuously rise from the spectators!
Bang!
The cherry blossom blade sphere was compressed to its limit, then suddenly exploded.
Under such formidable cutting force of ten thousand blades, the opponent Spirit Tamer's defensive Barrier was the first to give way, directly dying on the spot!
The other lower-tier Contracted Spirits were also instantly shredded to pieces!
Only the SR held on for a moment, but as the Spirit Tamer died, it also passed away quite peacefully.
"Congratulations to Knife in Rainy Night Without Umbrella for the victory!"
"Great Xia Region Ranked Space Server-wide Announcement: Congratulations to Knife in Rainy Night Without Umbrella for achieving an 8-win streak!!!"
Xia Yuan's figure reappeared, his robes fluttering.
The cherry blossom blades converged into a great river, reforming and returning to his hand, transforming back into the Zanpakuto.
He nodded slightly, quite satisfied. "Finally getting more and more proficient with it, Bankai..."
Mo Shiyu was already becoming somewhat numb to Xia Yuan's new moves that popped up from time to time.
But she suddenly realized that Xia Yuan, relying solely on the power of Bankai Senbonzakura, seemed capable of crushing some ordinary SRs. This was almost approaching SSR-level strength!
The entire arena was deathly silent.
Everyone in the spectator room was wide-eyed, mouths slightly agape, too shocked to speak.
Only when the arena dispersed, returning to Mo Shiyu's ranked space, did they snap out of it. Various voices gradually rose:
"What the f*ck, it's over just like that?!"
"Damn, the opponent wasn't some random nobody, that was a Diamond-tier powerhouse!"
"Ooooh, Bankai is explosively cool, it got me wet!"
"So strong, I take back my previous doubts. The streamer is a skill-based streamer, not a comedy streamer!"
"Hmph, you newcomers probably still don't understand the situation. The streamer's Contracted Spirit is an SSR!"
"SSR?! Killing with cherry blossoms, a completely unseen ability. I've heard before that some top Spirit Tamer families love to secretly cultivate some super-strong SSRs, only revealing them after raising them to high levels. The streamer is probably one of those!"
"..."
