As for whether or not Ziyu herself noticed it, that wasn't certain. But even if she didn't, she wouldn't care. After all, she was the type that focused on controlling the initiative. Even if it meant missing the opponent's opening, she couldn't follow the opponent's rhythm unless she had absolute confidence in killing them in one hit. This was the first rule Lin Yi emphasized when he taught her how to do it.
Bam! Just as Luo Shasheng was playing around, Ziyu's barrage of attacks knocked him down on the ground. Even so, she didn't stop, continuing her attacks on him without any intention of holding back.
"Ugh … How cruel …" Everyone's eyelids twitched. As long as Luo Shasheng didn't admit defeat or faint, the battle wasn't over yet. Even if he was knocked down, he could still chase after him. But normally, people would stop when the fight was over, and it was rare to see someone like Ziyu chasing after him.
Even Lin Yi and the others felt a chill running down their spine- as expected, Ziyu was a ruthless person deep down in her bones.
After a while, he looked at Luo Shaisheng, who was about to be beaten to death without a chance to fight back, and Xin Yijie couldn't watch it anymore. "Alright, this duel ends here. I declare Ziyu the winner, and Luo Shaisheng one win, three losses. He's eliminated."
"Ah? That's it? "Ziyu pulled her hand back, still looking like she hadn't had enough yet.
"That's enough, save some strength for the next round." Lin Yi couldn't help but sweat as he looked at the pitiful Luo Shaisheng on the ground. Meeting an opponent like Ziyu really was the worst thing he'd ever experienced in his life.
"Alright, but Lin Yi bro, the close-range attack you taught me is really good! I feel like I'm burning up, I can't stop!" Ziyu hugged Lin Yi's arm excitedly.
Everyone smiled when they heard this. This was probably not the effect of the instant close-range attack, but purely due to her own special physique!
Ziyu's victory was a good start for everyone, and Yu Bing, Xiaobo, and the others all passed as expected. They all got the right to enter the Archaean Trials with three wins and one loss.
With this, Lin Yi's group only had two people left to fight in the fifth round, Ziyu and Coold.
But with Ziyu's current condition, there shouldn't be anything to worry about in the next round. At least at the foundation establishment level, close-range attack was a very troublesome way of fighting. Most people wouldn't be able to react in time, and without the guidance of a master, no one would be able to block Ziyu's close-range attack.
Right now, Leng Leng was the one who was a little worried. Although she was very strong now, not only did she possess the Shattered Ice Physique, but she had also developed a powerful move such as Prison Drawing, she had just advanced to the Foundation Perfected stage. At the same time, she was facing the predicament of insufficient vital energy. If she could not recover in time, she might repeat the mistakes of the fourth round. That would be troublesome.
"Lin Yi bro, why don't you give Coold sis a private training session too? Wouldn't that be great?" Ziyu suggested. She was a living example, and with Lin Yi's level and judgment, the effect of a private training was unquestionable.
"Sure." Lin Yi nodded and turned to look at Leng Leng, "Based on the current situation, there's still a lot of room for improvement, whether it's Prison Formation or other aspects. We should be able to gain something with targeted special training, what do you think?"
"That …" Coold hesitated and shook her head firmly, "Don't bite off more than you can chew. I haven't even stabilized my foundation establishment level yet, and I haven't mastered Ground Prison yet, so I think we should leave the training for later. This time, I want to overcome it with my own hard work."
"Alright then, I believe you. Good luck." Lin Yi patted her shoulder lightly. Although it was a little risky to do so, he felt very gratified. Just like what Coold had said, it was better not to bite off more than one could chew. It was commendable for her to realize this.
In the fifth round of the trial, no one chose to challenge someone of a higher level. After all, those who stayed until this round were disciples who had gone through four rounds of intense battles, with two wins and two losses. There was no room for accidents anymore. Instead of choosing to challenge someone of a higher level, they might as well participate in the fifth round. At least this way, the difficulty would be lower, and they would have a higher chance of qualifying for the Archaic trial.
There were only four foundation establishment level complete practitioners left, and when Xin Yijie drew out the first group, everyone was shocked. Their eyes focused on the two in the field, Coold against Duanmu Yu!
"Oh? Looks like I've gotten myself into a good show! " Xue Jianfeng smiled with great interest. After a few days of recuperation, the frostbite left by Coold's extreme version of Confinement Prison had completely healed. However, because of this, he couldn't be present to supervise the battle these few days. Hence, he couldn't specifically target Lin Yi's group. Otherwise, they wouldn't have passed so smoothly.
Fortunately, the result of the draw did not disappoint him. Although he had to admit that Coold's strength was indeed not to be underestimated, especially that Prison Drawing was even more shocking. It was difficult for an average master of the same level to contend against it. However, Duan Muyu was not an ordinary character. Moreover, from the previous match, Coold's condition was not considered good. The odds of winning against Duan Muyu in this match was not high.
If Duanmu Yu could eliminate Coold, although it was barely satisfactory for Xue Jianfeng, it could be considered as a consolation.
At this moment, not only Xue Jianfeng, but the rest of the crowd also revealed an expression of watching a good show. After all, this was a rare showdown. Both sides were the hot topic, especially since this was the final showdown. No matter what the result was, one side was bound to be eliminated on the spot. Who would it be?
"Please." Coold took the lead and bowed slightly to Duanmu Yu.
"Please." Duan Muyu, on the other hand, made a gesture of invitation. She looked calm and composed on the surface, but she was secretly on guard in her heart. She warned herself that no matter what, she could not let the opponent use the Painted Confinement. Even Xue Jianfeng, a beginner stage Gold Core expert, almost suffered a calamity. If she was the one trapped, then everything would be over.
After the greeting, the atmosphere in the field suddenly began to become extremely tense. The crowd at the side did not even dare to breathe, quietly waiting for the two to officially start.
