In the end, Death’s Contract had given us a glimpse of an expert Knight’s true strength. By using his shield, he was able to continue chasing after the Mage. With [Cleansing Wind], he was able to recover and dodge spells. He basically relied on these movements to gain the upperhand. In the end, he had used [Flame Axe] + [Skyshaker Slash] to kill Soaring Dragon. This clearly demonstrated that in the Rise of the Heroes Tournament, you needed the strength to back up your claims. It wasn’t a place where you could say you were strong just because you had a lot of brothers. On the arena, Soaring Dragon could still end up getting completely beaten up despite his ability to call upon the strength of a hundred in Ba Huang City.
And thus the top 4 from B group had also been decided——
Fang Ge Que vs Yue Qing Qian
Cang Yue Vs Death’s Contract
All in all, there wasn’t much of a suspense. Both Gua Gua and Dong Cheng Yue would probably die by the hands of Fang Ge Que. Of course, there was still some hope left; Assassins had the advantage over Mages. If Dong Cheng Yue competed against Fang Ge Que in terms of strength, accuracy, and their ability to control their thought process, if she could empty her mind while dodging all of her opponents attacks, then she could just rely on [Thunderbolt Finger] and [Magma Lance] to instantly kill her opponent. However the chances of that were fairly small because Fang Ge Que was a vigilant person, especially in battle where he would have almost no flaws.
……
Fei Er’s mesmerizing body walked back onto the stage and she made an announcement with a smile, “Alright! After going through these intense battles, the victors from groups A and B have emerged. Next, let’s give it up for the long-awaited Group C competition! The first round will be Fan Shu City’s most beautiful Assassin, Cang Tong against [Legend]’s Vice Guild Master, Lu Chun Yang. This will definitely be a brilliant match; we’ll all wait with high expectations!”
“Shua!”
Lu Chun Yang held up his blade and appeared on the stage. He seemed to appear slightly impatient.
I looked at Wan Er next to me and said, “Good luck, make sure you defeat that Lu Chun Yang…”
Wan Er held her daggers, her cloak whistling behind her. She smiled then said, “Don’t worry, I’ve PKed Lu Chun Yang before. I’ve won 11 times and lost 3 times; the chances of him defeating me aren’t very high.”
“Okay!”
……
Soon after, Wan Er also appeared on the stage and faced Lu Chun Yang. Neither of them said a single word as they waited for the system’s countdown to finish——
“3!”
“2!”
“1!”
The instant the countdown finished, Lu Chun Yang picked up his sword and charged forward with his pet. Wan Er lightly leaped forward and her long slender body seemed to disappear in thin air; it was [Conceal], one of the Assassin’s most prized skills.
Lu Chun Yang stepped onto the green stone floor and slowly moved forward. His clear eyes swept across the battlefield and searched for any trace of his opponent. Leaves began to fall on the ground before his view then suddenly, Lu Chun Yang made a move. Wan Er used her daggers to block, but was pushed back several steps from the force of impact. He had managed to break her concealment.
“Wa…..”
Yue Qing Qian’s jaw dropped, “Lu Chun Yang’s insight is so keen that he managed to figure out Sister Cang Tong’s tracks based on the air current of the fallen leaves. No wonder he’s someone that Fang Ge Que places so much importance on…”
I made a fist, but didn’t say anything. I just looked at the distant arena.
……
Lu Chun Yang didn’t seem to have the slightest hesitation. Once he broke through Wan Er’s concealment, he immediately raised his sword to charge and slashed straight through the air!
Wan Er’s beautiful eyes became crescent shaped. Rather than retreat, she quickly advanced instead. Her little boots danced across the floor as she quickly rushed in. She had already figured out Lu Chun Yang’s angle of attack. She quickly jumped forward, and with a “Bang!” her shoulder hit Lu Chun Yang’s stomach. At the same time, her dagger quivered, activating [Bleed]!
2311!
Lu Chun Yang’s health dropped by a half. He bellowed and took the opportunity to grab Wan Er’s arm. Spinning his body in the air, he immediately brought down a [Skyshaker Slash] onto Wan Er’s shoulder!
2519!
Feeling the pain from the attack, Wan Er became more violent. Her right hand cut through the air and with a “Ka Cha” her dagger penetrated Lu Chun Yang’s right leg. She brandished the dagger in her left hand and slashed another bloody cut onto her opponent.
“Dammit……”
Lu Chun Yang quickly gulped down a potion. He suddenly swung his sword horizontally, but hadn’t expected Wan Er to have already switched out the dagger in her left hand. With the raise of her hand, she drew out her iron umbrella. “Bang!” the sword clashed with the umbrella right in front of Lu Chun Yang’s chest!
“Shua!”
The iron umbrella flashed then suddenly, Wan Er was holding two daggers in her hand again. The speed at which she switched weapons was astounding! She raised her arm and activated [Twin Blade Harmony]!
“I’m finished……”
Lu Chun Yang looked over and couldn’t help but close his eyes.
2718!
A large damage number flew out. Under Fan Shu City’s most beautiful Assassin’s attack, [Legend]’s Vice Guild Master died just like that!
