Electric Wave Formation, Waltzing Wave sh.
The weakest summon, the Goblin, couldn’t resist these two powerful attacks, but so what? The viewers could clearly see that Lord Grim wasn’t inside the Electric Wave Formation’s range. By the time the lightning struck the Goblin, Lord Grim had finished forming the hand seals for Shadow Clone Technique,unching a sneak attack from Empty Waves’ side.
But!
After drawing out a Waltzing Wave sh, Empty Waves’ Silver weapon, Divine Chain, didn’t stop and headed directly towards his side. Killing intent emanated from the edge of its des as it tore through the air. A Wave Wheel sher flew directly towards Lord Grim.
Ye Xiu was caught off guard. His Lord Grim had only justnded when the Wave Wheel sher arrived. There was no time for him to dodge. Guard? Parry? It would be useless. Wave Wheel sher was a skill with grab priority. Even if he tried using his shield to block it, the Wave Wheel sher would still tear aparts its defenses, locking him in ce and dealing damage. A Dismantle skill could work, but Dismantle skills required the proper timing. Using it now would be toote.
There was unexpectedly nothing he could do?
All of the viewers including the pro yers thought that the Wave Wheel sher was inescapable. Suddenly, Lord Grim swung his arm, sending out a sh of sword light. Magic waves specific to Spelldes swirled around the light. It looked exactly the same as Empty Waves’ sh. It was also a Wave Wheel sher. Wave Wheel sher against Wave Wheel sher.
The two streaks of sword light intertwined.
In a collision between two of the same skills, the oue would be decided based on attack power as well as factors such as timing.
Lord Grim’s attack had been hasty, and the magic emanating from his sword couldn’tpare to a true Spellde’s. The Level 20 Spellde ss advancement skill “Killing Intent Wave” specifically buffed wave skills. Unspecialized could not learn ss advancement skills, so his wave skills would naturally lose to a Spellde’s.
Lord Grim lost the priority battle. The undting magic swallowed him, forcing Lord Grim to stagger back. However, the imprisonment from the Wave Wheel sher was shattered by the collision. Lord Grim’s Wave Wheel sher fell shortpared to Empty Waves’, but it couldn’t be considered useless. It had nulled Wave Wheel sher’s grab effect, achieving Ye Xiu’s goal. After staggering back two steps, he immediately steadied himself and rushed forward again.
Although Spelldes were part of the Swordsman superss, their strengthsy in mid-rangedbat. Closebat wasn’t their ss’s expertise. The moment Empty Waves swung out a Wave Wheel sher, Jiang Botao had Empty Waves step to the side to pull away. Lord Grim was able to negate his Wave Wheel sher’s grab effect, but the shockwave still pushed him back two steps. Even though he was able to immediately steady himself and rush back, Empty Waves had already followed with his next attack. A streak of scarlet fire roared towards him, a me Wave sh.
Fire Wave sh was the strongest of the Wave shs and had the strongest knockback. Forcing your way through it wasn’t possible. It wasn’t just mes. It also contained powerful undting magic.
Unable to get past it, he could only dodge. However, Ye Xiu knew that this attack was just the beginning.
Fire Wave sh, Ice Wave sh, and Light Wave sh. These three Wave shs containing fire, ice, and light were often used together. Thisbo was nicknamed “Three Fold Wave”. The Fire Wave sh had already put Ye Xiu in a fluster. How could ice and light not follow?
And the ice and light quickly followed!
Lord Grim turned and used the Assassin skill, Shining Cut. Cold light shed as the Fire Wave sh brushed past him. When he looked towards Empty Waves again, as expected, it was the “Three Fold Wave.” The second Light Wave sh had arrived next.
As the name implied, Light Wave sh was extremely fast, but Jiang Botao had underestimated the speed of Lord Grim’s movement skill. The Light Wave sh shed past him, missing Lord Grim!
Thunderous apuse.
Ye Xiu didn’t know, but the viewers watching did. The Waltzing Wave sh from before hadn’t hit the Goblin behind the stctite, instead circling around it before returning like a boomerang. To dodge the Light Wave sh, Lord Grim had used Shining Cut. However, although he was able to dodge the Light Wave sh, the Waltzing Wave sh had looped around, striking him in the back.
Lord Grim lost his bnce and stumbled forward.
Naive? Pure?
Sure enough, none of those traits had any rtion to Jiang Botao. How could a naive and pure person set up such a tricky and crafty trap?
Ice Wave sh!
The third wave of the “Three Fold Wave” swept towards the stumbling Lord Grim. Jiang Botao had calcted how he would follow up and was about to go through with it, when he saw Lord Grim suddenly raise his umbre. With a whoosh, the umbre opened. Lord Grim used his shield to block the Ice Wave sh.
Jiang Botao felt a tremble in his heart. He had calcted the distance and timing of these consecutive Wave shs. Even a machine wouldn’t have been able to react in time. For Ye Xiu to do so, he must have been prepared ahead of time.
The thought shed through his mind. The Ice Wave sh hit the canvas of the Myriad Manifestations Umbre. The shards of ice seemed toe alive, shooting back towards Empty Waves.
He really was ready for it!
This wasn’t just a block, but a skill: Shield Counter!
Shield Counter absorbed and reflected damage depending on the level of the skill. Lord Grim’s Shield Counter could only be level one, so the reflected ice shards was very sparse. However, the speed of the ice shards was no less than before. Jiang Botao had wanted to chain together his attacks, so he positioned Empty Waves as close as possible to Lord Grim. But that only made it more difficult for him to dodge the reflected Ice Wave sh now.
The reflected damage from a level one Shield Counter was insignificant, but the threat from Ice Wave sh wasn’t the damage but rather its Freeze effect. The Freeze effect would be drastically reduced from the Shield Counter, but it still couldn’t be ignored and had to be dodged.
Spelldes wore te armor, so their movements were slow. Dragged down by the heavy weight of his armor, Empty Waves was just barely able to dodge the ice shards, but by this time, Lord Grim had closed in.
With a bang, Lord Grim’s Myriad Manifestations Umbre struck Empty Waves’ armor. Knights also wore te armor. With their heavy weight, the knockback from a Charge could send a Spellde flying. But Lord Grim’s Charge was much weaker. Against a te armored Spellde, all it could do was send the opponent stumbling back a few steps.
But this was what Ye Xiu wanted. He wanted to take the initiative, not send Empty Waves flying away.
“What do you think? Have you gotten a taste of this senior’s fearsomeness?”
As he typed, Lord Grim rushed forward. His Myriad Manifestations Umbre transformed into a spear, stabbing towards Empty Waves’ head.
Jiang Botao didn’t have time to reply back to Ye Xiu’s message. Empty Waves held up his weapon, Divine Chains, in an attempt to parry the Dragon Tooth. Suddenly, the Myriad Manifestations Umbre transformed. The canvas retracted, and the parry missed. All that remained in Jiang Botao’s sigh was the muzzle of a gun.
Boom boom boom!
Three Anti-Tank Missiles fired. How could Empty Waves dodge something at point nk distance? st after st, Empty Waves was swallowed by smoke and light.
sh!
A sword was unsheathed. Two streaks of light followed, creating a cross in the air.
Empty Waves was still inside the smoke and light from the explosions. However, he was able to swing his shortsword, Divine Chains, downwards from the previous parry position. Ghost sh!
Ghostdes and Spelldes primarily dealt magic damage. As a result, when one ss used the other ss’s skills, the skills were quite powerful. This Ghost sh collided with Lord Grim’s Gore Cross.
Ghost sh had a blow-away effect and impressive attack priority. The sh shattered the sword light from Gore Cross, and Lord Grim was forced to jump back to avoid the blow.
The Divine Chains swung back up, using a Spellde skill: Earth Wave sh*.
The earth was swept up as it headed towards Lord Grim. By this time, the mes from the explosion had yet topletely disperse. From Jiang Botao’s screen, only a fuzzy haze could be seen, but even so, he was able to push out two attacks.
With a turn, Lord Grim dodged the Earth Wave sh. The Myriad Manifestations Umbre swung horizontally, while changing forms into a scythe, a Priest weapon. Using an Exorcist skill “Hook”, it went straight for Empty Waves’ throat.
Jiang Botao’s vision had returned to normal. He rolled on the ground, dodging the attack. He shed upwards with his sword, counter attacking with a Storm Wave sh.
The two began fighting back and forth. Lord Grim had too little health. Even though he had been furiously healing himself at the start of the match, he wasn’t able to heal too much. No one had expected him to win this fight. It was just a question of how much damage he was able to deal to Jiang Botao. In the end, he was able to take down 24% of Empty Waves’ health before falling.
Using 4% health in exchange for 24% was a very good result. Happy was happy. They got up and weed Ye Xiu down from the stage. Of course, in reality, their apuse was mainly for Ye Xiu’s win in the first round against Zhou Zekai. That had been a huge boost to their morale. Ye Xiu had been in the yer booth the entire time, so he didn’t know. However, the others remembered how quiet the stadium had been when Zhou Zekai lost.
Mo Fan was Happy’s second yer for the group arena. He pped very mechanically alongside everyone else, waiting for Ye Xiu toe back before heading onto the stage.
“Be careful, that guy’s got a very ck heart,” Ye Xiu reminded.
No one knew if Mo Fan heard him or not, but he was on his way towards the stage now. On the side, Fang Rui booed at Ye Xiu: “Is there anyone with a cker heart than yours?”
“Of course not! Boss is the best at everything!” Steamed Bun replied back for Ye Xiu.
