Every single arrow was extremely precise and swift, forcing Wu Bufan to have no choice but to stop and dodge with all his might.
After the time for an entire incense stick to burn, Wu Bufan exhausted a great deal of effort yet was still unable to catch up to Huang Xiaotao, and it was even to the extent that he wasn't even able to close the distance between them in the slightest. This unexpected scene of being unable to part from each other truly caused everyone below the arena to be shocked.
Huang Xiaotao, this woman, seemed to be extraordinary. If they were in a jungle, Wu Bufan probably wouldn't even know how he died.
However, although everyone thought highly of Huang Xiaotao, they still felt that Wu Bufan had a higher chance of winning. After all, this was a one-on-one battle. No matter how good Huang Xiaotao's archery was, it couldn't make up for this natural disadvantage.
This stalemate situation couldn't be maintained forever. When Wu Bufan closed the distance, everything would be over.
However, among the crowd, only Lin Yi didn't have the slightest worry. In his eyes, Huang Xiaotao would win this battle!
Even if they were both in the early stage of the Gold Core Realm, even if Huang Xiaotao's martial arts and weapons were not suitable for one-on-one battles, she was the strongest Gold Core Realm expert who had a perfect breakthrough. She was definitely not an ordinary early stage Gold Core Realm expert like Wu Bufan.
As time went by, this duel between Huang Xiaotao and Wu Bufan, which originally didn't attract much attention, gradually attracted the attention of the audience, and there was a lot of private discussion.
Wu Bufan couldn't hold back anymore. Although most people were optimistic about him, Huang Xiaotao's bow and arrows didn't have eyes. If he was careless and touched by one of the arrows, or even hit a vital position like the throat, it would be a joke.
Gritting his teeth, Wu Bufan finally didn't dare to hide anything anymore. In an instant, he increased his speed to the extreme. After closing the distance between him and Huang Xiaotao, he suddenly raised his hand and swung it in Huang Xiaotao's direction. A dark green light. Then, at a speed that was difficult to be seen by the naked eye, it went straight to the opponent's vital point.
Hidden Sword, a hidden sword that was poisoned with the world's strange poison. Unless there was a unique antidote, anyone who touched it would die. This was Wu Bufan's trump card that he had carefully prepared, and it was also his last card. He didn't want to use it in the first battle, but now he had no other choice.
Wu Bufan specially practiced for several years. The speed of the hidden sword was not slow, and Huang Xiaotao had adapted to the rhythm of the previous unilateral suppression of the bow and arrows. For a moment, he was unable to react.
According to his calculations, there was at least an 80% chance that the Hidden Blade would succeed.
Ding! The crisp sound of metal colliding rang out, accompanied by the gasps of surprise from the audience. Wu Bufan's wishful thinking had instantly fallen through. Huang Xiaotao had actually used her bow and arrow to block the fatal Hidden Blade in the Sleeve head-on!
Such a reaction. This level of precision was simply unimaginable. It could be called a godly technique!
If it was anyone else in the arena, even if they were stronger than Huang Xiaotao, they wouldn't be able to do so. However, this move of using bows and arrows to block the Hidden Sword was something that they would never be able to do. If this wasn't a godly skill, what was?
All of a sudden. Everyone looked at Huang Xiaotao in a different light. Putting everything else aside, just this female cultivator's archery skills alone. He truly lived up to the name of a godly archer!
However, Wu Bufan's experience was vividly displayed at this moment. He was even more shocked than everyone else, yet his footsteps didn't stop in the slightest, and he actually seized this critical moment to instantly catch up to Huang Xiaotao and arrive less than 3m away from her.
The dust had settled. No matter how brilliant and magical an archer's archery was, once they were in close combat, they would definitely lose.
Not only did the audience think so, but Wu Bufan also thought so. The corners of his mouth unconsciously curled into a proud smile. Although this Huang Xiaotao was powerful, he still had the last laugh. After all, the older the ginger, the spicier it was.
At this moment, Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh because the outcome had been decided.
Pu! A pitch-black bow and arrow suddenly pierced Wu Bufan's chest. Wu Bufan fell to the ground, still looking at Huang Xiaotao in disbelief. The audience was also dumbfounded.
Even if they were beaten to death, they would never have thought that an archer would directly stab her opponent's chest after being in close combat. Furthermore, her movements were unusually skillful and coherent, without any signs of jerkiness. This woman simply didn't play by the rules!
Unbeknownst to them, this move was completely created by Huang Xiaotao herself. It was an emergency move when a powerful spiritual beast was in close combat. Although it didn't seem like a technique at first glance, it was honed by life and death situations. It was almost an instinctive reaction, which was unusually practical and effective.
"Sir Referee, does this count as my win?" Huang Xiaotao looked at Wu Bufan, who had fallen to the ground, and turned to ask the referee.
Even the referee couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He then asked someone to carry Wu Bufan away for treatment, and at the same time, announced that Huang Xiaotao had won the first battle.
"Xiaotao, you've won this battle beautifully and brilliantly!" Lin Yi smiled as he walked up to congratulate her. Huang Xiaotao's performance in this round was indeed remarkable, and he couldn't help but praise her.
"Not at all, I was just lucky, that's all." Huang Xiaotao lowered her head shyly, but in her heart, she was secretly happy for Lin Yi's praise.
At this moment, Shanghai Laner was also extremely happy for Huang Xiaotao. Lin Yi won without a fight, and Huang Xiaotao won so brilliantly. The two people that she cared about the most had a good start, so of course she was in a good mood.
Shanghai Tianhua, who was sitting next to her, looked at Huang Xiaotao with an obvious look of surprise. Based on his experience and knowledge, there were very few things that could surprise him, but Huang Xiaotao's performance really surprised him.
Huang Xiaotao's amazing archery skills and the last unexpected arrow were secondary. This performance only showed that Huang Xiaotao was very talented, but it was not enough to surprise Shanghai Tianhua.
What Shanghai Tianhua really cared about was that when Lin Yi challenged Su Zhaohe a while ago, Huang Xiaotao was watching the battle beside him. At that time, she was only in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, but now she suddenly became an expert in the early stage of Gold Core. Not only that, she was actually an expert with the strongest potential of a perfect Gold Core!
Under normal circumstances, it might not be obvious whether it was a perfect breakthrough or not, but with Shanghai Tianhua's shrewd eyesight, as long as Huang Xiaotao made a move, he would already be able to see some clues.
First, there was Lin Yi, and now there was Huang Xiaotao. When did there become so many experts with the perfect Gold Core?
While Shanghai Tianhua was bewildered, the first round of the single elimination battle on the ring was still going on. This time, the one who went on the ring was Xu Lingchong, who had been the focus of attention recently!
Under the gaze of the audience, Xu Lingchong calmly walked onto the ring …
