Chapter 341 The Pinnacle of Battles
Slowly, the time ticked away. The most important match had finally arrived. Fang Ge Que’s clothes fluttered in the wind as he stood 20 yards away. The fact that he had not pulled a safe distance of 40 yards away was understandable; he had to make sure that his spells were accurate. That’s why for a high level Mage like Fang Ge Que, he would choose to stay only 20 yards away as a standard; that way, not only could he kite better, he also didn’t need to worry about being struck by a [Blade Rush].
“3!”
“2!”
“1!”
As the countdown ended, I roared as [Dragon’s Whistle of Thunder and Lightning] activated. With an open hand, I summoned my Flaming Tiger God into the arena, revealing its name, Cang Tong, in bold letters. Side by side I charged with my Flaming Tiger God, telepathically urging him to remain 10 yards away from me at all times!
“Hummm”
The paper fan in Fang Ge Que’s grasp began to ignite the air; after a few waves, a gale swiftly blew the fire toward us!
Sparks flew under me as I bore all my weight on my feet and a big MISS flew up behind me. I successfully dodged the attack. It was all done while keeping a calm mind, a mind completely blank of everything except my original battle tactic. I made no tactical predictions or any changes to my lines of thought. I was in autopilot and I charged right back at him.
“Eh?”
Fang Ge Que furrowed his brows, as if he couldn’t figure out what I was thinking which was completely unexpected for him. In reality, this type of counter strategy against [Mind Reading] was extremely hard for the average player but it wasn’t difficult for me at all. After having undergone many years of training, and having already broken through the bodily training level, I was at the stage of training my spirit. Under this kind of training, I had to put aside all desires and thoughts, effectively clearing my mind. If I wanted to, even if she was standing right in front of me, Wan Er wouldn’t be able to read my mind.
“Hua!”
My blade broke through the wind as it flashed the light of a [Seven Star Fragment Slash], enveloping Fang Ge Que and his pet Thunder Beast!
“Dammit……”
Fang Ge Que’s face froze. He immediately used [Dimensional Leap], leaving behind the Thunder Beast to be caught directly in my [Seven Fragment Slash]!
“Screech……”
3123!
With a roar, my Flaming Tiger God began tackling the Thunder Beast, causing another 2000 damage. Within seconds, the small Thunder Beast’s health dropped to critical levels. After letting out a screech of pain, it began to dance around at the command of Fang Ge Que: the start of a large-scale spell. Countless stadium tiles began shooting up from the ground all around us, as a great [Lightning Abyss] opened up under my Flaming Tiger God and me.
1827!
3111!
I could withstand the damage, but the same couldn’t be said for my Flaming Tiger God, so I quickly had it use its [Flame Armor]. However, the most pressing problem at the moment was that Fang Ge Que stood at a distance. With a wave of his fan, another large spell fell upon us – [Fire and Ice Storm]
2138!
1922!
My Flaming Tiger God was already in critical condition so I immediately cast [Heal] on him. Then, I cast [Haste] on myself and gripped my sword as I dashed toward Fang Ge Que. As the Thunder Beast cried out, it transformed into a ball of light and became invulnerable for 2 seconds. This was another ingenious bait tactic with the Thunder Beast acting as bait while Fang Ge Que took advantage of his distance to bombard me with damage.
“Screech….”
My Flaming Tiger God was completely wrapped in the glow of his [Flame Armor], giving him a boost in magical resistance. As it waited for the Thunder Beast’s invincibility to end, its claws began to brighten with a red light and [Blood Drain]’s effect appeared. I immediately raised my sword and charged at Fang Ge Que. Simultaneously, I commanded the Flaming Tiger God to run and dodge Fang Ge Que’s spell while I used [Haste] and [Blade Rush]!
“Kacha!”
MISS!
