Chapter 162: How did she do it?
Among the bustle, Yu Chen waved his weapons and dodged the attack.
“Miss Lu, you have quite a few surprises, eh?” Yu Chen panted. “What special technique are you using now?”
He was filled with curiosity now. Before he decided to challenge Lu Mingshu, he had researched about her first. Her ability, potential, ways of fighting, and skills that she used. He even went to talk to her opponents one by one.
Xing Kun swore that she had learned a special skill that could freeze the other party’s mystic force. Xing Kun said that he was unable to control his limbs after fighting with her.
But her other opponents mentioned nothing about this skill, and one of them even accused Xing Kun of lying; if she really did have such a skill, it would have been an easy fight against Cai Zheng, so why did she struggle so much?
Now, Yu Chen was personally fighting against her, and the skill that Xing Kun mentioned wasn’t shown. However, she was certainly using some kind of new skill now.
He still didn’t know how she pierced through his mystic force shield so easily.
Of course, Lu Mingshu wouldn’t tell him. She spun around, and the mystic light froze in the middle of the air and shot up.
Yu Chen had no choice but to go up against her.
His weapons had long blades that were almost as long as a rifle. They were best used for piercing attacks from far away, and since they were a pair, they were rather strong.
A dim golden mystic light moved in the direction that Yu Chen was waving his weapons.
One of the spectators sighed. “This elite is indeed different. Look at his mystic light, it’s so solid! He must have used a lot of effort to achieve that.”
Compared to Yu Chen, Lu Mingshu’s mystic light was just as bright as his, but it wasn’t as solid as his. It was unavoidable; no matter how talented she was, compared to the time and effort that Yu Chen put in, her talent was insufficient to cover up her loss of only entering the Harmonization Realm a year ago.
Boom!
Both rays of mystic light clashed.
Yu Chen’s ray of light shone brighter and became thicker.
“Lu Mingshu’s actions aren’t very wise. Yu Chen is different from all her previous opponents. He has a higher chance of winning; Lu Mingshu is very skilled with a sword but weaker in other areas, while Yu Chen is equally good in every aspect-”
Before the sentence could be completed, Yu Chen’s mystic light started flickering, and it almost cracked.
“What’s happening?” Squeals could be heard from the tents.
Lu Mingshu’s mystic light enlarged and seized the chance to break Yu Chen’s mystic light.
Yu Chen stepped back urgently.
The hooligan-like smile on his face disappeared, and he stared intensely at the girl standing in front of him.
What’s happening? Her mystic force was incomparable to his, but it was oddly sharp. When their mystic light met, her light pierced right through his.
The previous time, his defence was pierced through because he was completely unprepared. This time around, Yu Chen had already taken his precautions, but his light was still nearly pierced through.
Unbelievable. How can a person change their skillset every single day? Did she learn a bunch of different skills just to get into the New Ranking?
“Miss is indeed surprising,” Yu Chen started. “I see that I have kicked an iron board today.
Lu Mingshu looked at him coldly. “Sir, why aren’t you taking out all of your ability? Or is it just this?”
Yu Chen sneered and smiled cheekily. “Well, I like your honesty. Bring it on!”
After he finished his sentence, Yu Chen changed his position. He gripped his weapons and leapt into the air.
In the blink of an eye, the mystic light became as thin as a string and sprinkled all over the stage, encasing it like a spiderweb.
Elites were indeed different. In no time, Yu Chen immediately found a new way to tackle Lu Mingshu; if a shield didn’t work, then just make the mystic light into a web!
“Such a powerful mystic force!” The spectators gasped in awe.
Like thousands of propitious vapours, the mystic lights hung from the air, enclosing Lu Mingshu and forcing her to the edge.
However, Lu Mingshu didn’t hide. She swayed her sword to the back, and a chime could be heard before she rushed up.
Both of them were fast, and the mystic light flashed across the stage like lightning.
The spectators had a fun time watching them.
This match is so interesting to watch! The skills are so fancy!
With Yu Chen’s strong and stable basics and Lu Mingshu’s masterful sword skills, their fight against each other was fascinating.
“Senior Brother, who do you think will win?” Qi Sheng asked.
The match had already been going for quite a while, yet he still couldn’t tell. Yu Chen was way better than he expected, which was bad for Lu Mingshu.
Kou Wei bit his lips and shook his head. “I don’t know.”
“Even you don’t know?”
Kou Wei laughed gently. “That’s what makes it a good match! If one can already predict the results, then what’s the point of competing?”
“But...”
“Let’s put it this way,” Kou Wei started after thinking deeply for a while. “Yu Chen is equally good in every aspect, and he does not have any weakness. If he’s lucky, he will be in the New Ranking.”
“So do you think he will win?” Qi Sheng asked anxiously.
Kou Wei laughed. “I haven’t finished my words! Yu Chen is a predictable opponent, but Lu Mingshu isn’t.”
For example, the match with Xing Kun. The gap in their abilities was small, but she was at a loss due to lack of experience. However, Lu Mingshu was able to find ways to overcome it. For example, she won the match with Cai Zheng because of her perseverance. Her opponents were all strong, it was just that she was smart enough to get herself out of trouble and win the match. She even came back stronger than before.
It was said that she also performed in this way during the Heavenly Door competition. There were two opponents who were much more capable than her, but they still lost to her eventually. One was due to being too focused on showing off his skills, while the other was because he underestimated her.
So even though Lu Mingshu didn’t have much chance of winning now, Kou Wei didn’t dare to confirm that she would definitely lose.
After he finished his sentence, he could hear the other spectators gasping in awe.
“Five Morning Sun Summit. That’s Five Morning Sun Summit!”
Kou Wei looked across the stage to see Yu Chen hanging in the middle of the air. As he waved his weapons, the mystic lines shone across the whole venue brightly.
Five Morning Sun Summit – the secret skill of Fallen Skies Valley.
It worked by solidifying mystic light into five balls, which would then release a huge energy wave.
Under normal situations, this skill could only be mastered if one had reached the Spirit Realm, but Yu Chen had already mastered it.
Did Yu Chen make the right choice to challenge Lu Mingshu? Is he about to take away the most points in one go? Lu Mingshu might be in trouble....
Sword energy rose up into the air and abruptly broke Kou Wei’s train of thoughts. The energy tossed and turned in midair as if it was a dragon.
Kou Wei was stunned. That’s not right. Lu Mingshu isn’t capable of doing this. How can she manage something like that?
Before he could realize what exactly was going on, the sword energy enveloped the five balls and suppressed them.
Boom!
The sword energy and the five balls exploded.
When the mystic light had dispersed, Lu Mingshu took a few steps back.
However, Yu Chen was crouching on the ground and vomiting blood.
