The Seventh Tang waved his iron fan and said, “Don’t worry. That won’t happen! Hmph, if I lose a fourth time then this wouldn’t be a battle of the top four finalists anymore but rather an endless torture for me.”
I couldn’t help but chuckle, “What do you think?”
“Come, let’s do our best and fight!”
……
The second the countdown ended, I began my attack. I lowered my Emperor Qin’s Sword as I focused on the movements of the hexagram. If I could dodge his hexagram, then I would maximize my chances of winning. I wasn’t prepared the first round so I had to dodge it this time. This was a test.
The Seventh Tang’s eyes focused on me. With the intention to kill, he swiftly raised his hand and threw out [Hexagram Blast]!
My Divine Battle Boots stomped on the ground as I came to an abrupt stop. One hand wasn’t enough so I immediately rotated my sword and violently shoved it into the ground. “Peng” a clang resounded as fiery sparks scattered all around. Using all of my strength, I leaned to the side and forcefully left my original path. The [Hexagram Blast] slipped past my arm as a huge MISS appeared. I really successfully dodged it!
The Seventh Tang coldly glared at me, ” Shit, you could even dodge it like that. Are you really just a pure strength Swordsman?”
True, I wasn’t Lin Wan Er. I couldn’t compete with her movement and turning speed. All I could do was use this “stupid” method and use brute force to dodge the [Hexagram Blast]. Either way, it was a successful dodge!
Focusing my weight on my feet, I swiftly dashed towards The Seventh Tang. As soon as I was only 8 yards away from him, The Seventh Tang hastily used [Perspective]. But, I was already expecting it. The moment [Perspective] activated, I used [Blade Rush]. “Shua” I appeared in front of The Seventh Tang again. I was more experienced than him and successfully countered his [Perspective] again!
I sent my blade forward with a stab, like a ferocious dragon bursting out of the sea!
The Seventh Tang started to reveal his true strength in short-range combats. He smacked his iron fan on top of my blade and slid his left foot under me to trip me, taking out a good half of my original force. Then, he threw a left punch right into my shoulder pad!
“Peng!”
“774!”
I looked at him and smirked, “It doesn’t even hurt…… ”
The Seventh Tang’s face turned green, “You wanna die?!”
“Peng! ”
I punched him back then charged again and landed a kick with my Battle Boots. “Shua Shua” My Emperor Qin’s Sword hit The Seventh Tang twice before I launched a flying kick at him. I immediately sent The Seventh Tang flying. The Stone Giant roared and rushed at me, only to be trapped by my [Binding Chains]. My Flaming Tiger God growled and activated [Burstfire Raid], smashing into The Seventh Tang.
Even though he had [Pentashield] on, the rhythm of his attack was almost the same as the first round. Just like before, he was instantly killed with a barrage of attacks when I rushed forward!
“Shua!”
The Seventh Tang transformed into a ray of light and flew out of the arena. It wasn’t easy for him to fight against me since I had both high magic resistance and the support of my Flaming Tiger God. I was very different from any of the players he had fought before. Even though he had a good handle on the hexagrams, he still couldn’t kill me within a short time. I could defeat him even without using any of my defensive skills, [Shield of the Crimson Dragon] or [Recovery of the Dragon Knight]!
2:0
I got the third place!
I was soon teleported outside the stage. Lin Wan Er immediately cheered at me, “Congratulations, you won the third place! ”
I nodded and smiled in reply, “It was a piece of cake. Wan Er, go become the champion! ”
“Yes!”
