Heliotrope, middle-aged, Blaze Mage, equipped with a full set of pseudo-Immortal-grade equipment and a mid-grade Immortal-grade staff. He had a wretched appearance and a small mustache. When he smiled, he made people want to find someone to slap him.
Ling Xue, 20 years old, Snow Swordsman, Sky set, Blade of Snow Domain. She had a pretty face and a smile that made people's hearts ripple.
I was certain that if we were to vote on the spot, 99% of the people would support Ling Xue. Those who supported Heliotrope would be his own team.
In terms of equipment and level, Ling Xue had an advantage. She was 10 levels higher than her opponent and she had a godly weapon in her hand. This was not something Heliotrope could compare to.
But the situation was different now. Everyone had come to realize that Temple of the Moon was a guild with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. They had the potential to devour the world. If they defeated Snow Moon in the WSL offline tournament, Temple of the Moon's rise to the top of the China server would undoubtedly accelerate.
So, no matter if it was for the championship prize or for Snow Moon's future status in the China server, we could not afford to lose this match.
… …
It was a bright spring day. The map was a green valley.
Ling Xue stomped her foot and activated Holy Shield. She was not in a hurry to charge. Instead, she held her sword and chased after Heliotrope.
"What is this little girl doing?" Heliotrope's heart was pounding.
"Eat my Flame Arrow!"
Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh!
Three Rapid Fire Balls flew out and landed on Ling Xue's shield one after another. However, they didn't deal much damage. The combined damage of the three fireballs didn't exceed 10,000.
The Blazing Sun Scepter's equipment did not provide any Frost damage, so the movement speed reduction effect was extremely pitiful. Very soon, Ling Xue was within 20 yards of the Blazing Sun Scepter. Her sword flashed, and an azure sword aura descended from the sky.
Profound Ice Sword Energy!
Heliotrope was shocked. Without thinking, he flashed away!
After a Flash, Heliotrope also had a premonition that the situation was not good. The cooldown of the next Flash was within two minutes, and his little life could not last more than two minutes!
As he wished, Ling Xue locked onto Heliotrope's next landing point the moment he flashed. She directly charged over and raised her sword, Icebound Slash!
Crack!
Countless snow fairies gathered together and froze Heliotrope into a salted fish.
Ling Xue attacked again. She didn't even need to use her Ice Whirlwind Sword. She killed Heliotrope with a normal strike!
The score was 1: 0. I felt slightly relieved. Ling Xue was still more stable. This point was in the bag.
In the second round, Heliotrope suffered from the previous round and didn't dare to easily use Flash again. Ling Xue also calmly pursued and killed him in the map.
Next to the stream, the ground was covered in green grass. Small white flowers dotted the ground, like a sky full of stars.
Heliotrope stepped on the stars to escape. Ling Xue chased after him. Her Snow Field Blade was like a heavenly icicle, emitting a thick icy aura. When Ling Xue crossed the stream, the cobblestone surface actually turned into ice. Just like the description of the Snow Field Blade said, this unparalleled divine weapon could turn rivers into glaciers!
Heliotrope didn't dare to fight. Ling Xue didn't use Charge. After she got close, her sword flashed, Water Moon Slash!
Whoosh!
A cyan full moon flew across the river. Heliotrope let out a cry of pain. His health had almost been halved. His equipment was already very good, but under the attacks of a top-tier warrior like Ling Xue, he was still so weak.
"Still not using Flash?" Ling Xue smiled in high spirits.
But Heliotrope was very obedient. Flash!
Boom!
The ice sword energy fell into the river, stirring up a splash. What made people dumbfounded was that these splashes in the air didn't fall to the ground. Instead, they all condensed into icicles!
"Damn …"
Everyone was in an uproar. The power of this Ice Swordsman was not just for show. One sword could turn spring into winter. It could be called a super refrigerator in the cold weapon era!
As Heliotrope used Flash, Ling Xue also rushed over. Before Heliotrope could drink the potion in his hand, the blade slashed across his neck. The potion fell to the ground, and he slowly knelt in the shallow water. He turned into a white light and flew out of the arena.
The score was 2: 0. Ling Xue didn't disappoint and pulled back a big point for Snow Moon!
As a result, the overall score became 1: 2. Snow Moon fell behind.
The next match, the real highlight, was my turn. My opponent was the trump card of the Temple of the Moon — Fengshui Master Han Xin!
Ling Xue returned to the side of the arena and patted my shoulder. She smiled and said, "I won. You're too embarrassed to lose, right?
Go, kill that Han Xin. Tonight, we'll celebrate! "
I couldn't help but smile. "Celebrate?
What kind of celebration? "
The little beauty glanced at me and smiled ambiguously. "How do you want to celebrate?"
Ling Yue pushed my arm and smiled. "Let's go, let's go. Let's talk about it when we win!"
I smiled and entered the arena. My morale rose to full thanks to the two girls' encouragement. Sometimes men were like this. Give me eight hundred Stalwart Tiger Guards and I'll point my sword to the north. As long as you give me two beautiful girls, I can still point my sword to the world!
When I reached the arena, I put away my smile. I couldn't underestimate my opponent.
Han Xin had a contented expression on his face as he stood in the forest with his staff in hand. His whole body was brimming with the aura of an immortal. Of course, I had long since seen through him. He was just a fraud.
"Hehe, Snow Moon's strength is only so-so …" Han Xin smiled disdainfully.
"Is that so?"
I didn't care and said, "Say that again after you win!"
"Hmph, come!"
Han Xin stabbed his staff into the ground and shouted, "Twisting Heaven and Earth!"
"Bang bang bang!"
With him as the center, jagged boulders rose from the ground and isolated me like sharp knives. Han Xin was in the center, stroking his beard and sneering.
You're not going to use Mud Foot Sink?
I was slightly surprised and swung my sword!
"Bang!"
Divine Dragon Slash's energy roared out and instantly turned the boulders in front of me into dust. This was an object summoned by a player and was much weaker than an NPC building.
"Oh?"
Han Xin narrowed his eyes and chuckled. "The Frivolous Scholar is the Frivolous Scholar. He's much stronger than Hellfire or A Speck of Dust."
I stepped on the rubble and shouted, "Stop talking nonsense. You don't have the right to judge Hellfire and A Speck of Dust!"
The audience below the arena definitely heard what I said. I lowered my voice, but it was very penetrating. I wondered what the Hellfire and a speck of dust were thinking right now.
Han Xin looked like he had a card up his sleeve. When I was halfway there, he immediately shouted, "Muddy Feet Deep!"
Here it comes!
As expected, there were many potholes on the ground. But because he had released the boulders first, the power of the mud was reduced.
"Pa!"
I stepped on the boulder and used the rebound to jump toward the center. At the same time, my Moonlight Blade shone with strong light. If I could get close, I would kill this guy on the spot!
Han Xin saw this and immediately adopted a strategy. "Change formation!"
"Crash!"
The mud and boulders spun. A Speck of Dust had died because of this move!
I did my best to remain calm. The positions of the boulders and the pools flashed through my mind.
Position, distance, path!
That's right, this is the path!
My feet exerted force and I shot forward like lightning. An S-shaped path appeared under my feet, and after four bounces, I covered the 25 yards. With a "pa", I landed next to Han Xin.
"Charge!"
Just as I was about to move, I felt a strong force pull me back. It was — Don't Use the Hidden Dragon!
Heavens, a gray dragon tightly wrapped around me. It was like the King of Hell was dragging me underground!
Beep!
Combat Log: Player Han Xin's skill [Don't Use the Hidden Dragon] has locked onto you. You are unable to move or attack for 45 seconds!
Damn!
45 seconds!
I can't attack?
I was angry. I raised my hand and shouted, "Dragon Bind!"
"Hong!"
The shadow of a golden dragon soared into the sky and wrapped around Han Xin in an instant. It was just a status spell, and it didn't hurt him, so it worked.
With one hand, Dragon Bind could only bind him and not lock him down. So, Han Xin could still use skills. He tried and laughed out loud. "Die!
Die! "
"Heaven Lightning Slash!"
"Hong!"
A bolt of lightning landed and I felt a clear five bolts of lightning strike me. My entire body was in pain.
“44937！”
Such a strong magic attack!
Helpless, I hollered, "Domain Shield!"
A life-saving skill came. Shortly after —
Iron Wall!
Dragon Armor!
Reverse Heaven Technique!
Saint Heal!
… …
Han Xin's jaw dropped to the ground as he used his skills one after another. However, these skills weren't enough to protect me. Han Xin's Heavenly Lightning Slash was just too powerful. In less than half a minute, my 210k HP dropped to less than 50k!
I was filled with unwillingness. Things actually developed to such a state. If I could summon pets, Ling 'er would be able to finish him off in a few strikes. With the cooldown of skills, my strength in WSL was greatly reduced!
Saint Heal, save me!
Shua!
“73549！”
Holy Healing Spell instantly restored 35% of my HP and pulled me back from the gates of hell once again.
Right at that moment, Don't Use the Hidden Dragon's lock effect ended.
I was delighted. D * mn, die, fraud!
However, Han Xin smiled mysteriously and shouted, "Sleeping strong undead, please accept my summons and descend upon the world of darkness once more!"
"Dragon's Tomb!"
The moment he shouted "Dragon's Tomb", I was stunned. Dragon's Tomb?
What the heck? Could it be that Fengshui masters were really that good?
In China's ancient legends, the tombs of emperors had dragon veins. Did he comprehend the Dao and know where the Dragon's Tomb was?
No matter whether or not Han Xin comprehended the Dao, he had comprehended such a skill.
Everything around me turned dark and the ground turned deathly grey. Moreover, the ground started to crack. Many parts of the earth rose up like something was about to drill out!
Han Xin laughed viciously and shouted, "Come out!"
"Hong!
Hong!
Hong! "
Not far away from me, the ground exploded, and a giant black dragon rushed out of the ground. Although it was only its tail that hit me, it still dealt over 30000 damage!
The area around me was filled with dragon energy. It was as though an ancient dragon had been awakened from the dragon tomb and ascended to the heavens. This type of attack was similar to the Flame Dragon Soar that I could use before. However, this was equivalent to an infinite number of Dragon Soars!
Dragon's Tomb's attack range was only 20x20 and was far weaker than Affection Skill. However, its cooldown was short and this allowed Han Xin to shine in the WSL offline competition!
Peng peng!
Two giant dragons wrapped around my body and did not give me a chance to use any skills. Just like that, my body loosened and I died!
The score was 0: 1, I lost the first battle!
Everyone was silent. Qin Yun said softly, "I didn't expect this Fengshui Master to hide Dragon's Tomb. So sick. Scholar lost so depressing..."
"Qin Yun..." I looked at her.
Qin Yun smiled. "Don't be discouraged. Let's do it again. There will be a chance. Snow Moon hasn't lost yet!"
"En!"
I nodded and continued on my journey once more.
On the battlefield, the wind was blowing. Han Xin laughed coldly. "How is it? Dragon's Tomb doesn't feel good, right?
I left it for the last, for you, the strongest of Snow Moon!
Nice, right? "
I smiled. "Is that so?
Although I don't know if you can reach the end, I left one move for my opponent in the finals. It seems like it will be you. "
"Oh?
Is that so? "
Han Xin laughed viciously and stabbed his staff into the ground. He shouted, "Twisting Heaven and Earth!"
My heart sank. "There is no need to sink, aren't you underestimating me too much?
D * mn, now is the time! "
"Blazing Lightning Wind!"
I shouted and used a high-level skill for the first time. Feathers floated around me and I seemed to become much lighter. I instantly turned into a Qinggong expert!
Swoosh!
My figure flashed past and weaved through the huge rocks that were twisting the universe. Han Xin couldn't even see my figure. By the time he released his Muddy Feet in shock, I was already behind him!
"Shield Breaking Slash!"
“93040！”
The sharp attack shook Han Xin's body and he lost a large amount of health.
"D * mn, get the hell back!
Don't Use Hidden Dragon! "
Han Xin was exasperated. Unfortunately, Wu Yong had only managed to catch my afterimage. With the speed boost from Lightning Storm, my movement and positioning had reached a level where I could move as I pleased. How could he possibly catch me?
"Right!"
Han Xin came to his senses but it was too late. Whirlwind Slash!
“73949！”
Han Xin turned pale with fright. His Vitality had already been reduced to half. Panicking, he growled, "Die!
Dragon's Tomb! "
"Hmph, this move again!"
I thrust the sword in my hand, but I suddenly felt a wave of heat surge up. Ha?!
A Demon God's skill!
Flick!
"Pu!"
A green sword energy pierced through Han Xin's body from behind. He was lifted up and sliced into pieces!
“172393！”
Finally, it was over. It was a one-hit kill!
The score was 1: 1. I finally recovered.
