So fast! No wonder even Liu Xiaobie lost.
Xiao Yun controlled his Great Halberd to dodge. This was a situation he had prepared himself for, but when it actually happened, he still felt a bit nervous.
He really wasn't an opponent he could face head on! This time, Xiao Yun's judgement was confirmed. If he had known this would happen, he would've had a plan.
If she wants to be fast, then I can't let her be fast. With my understanding of Battle Mages, do you think I can't suppress her rhythm?
In a battle of the same class, everyone had a better understanding of the changes they could make. If Tang Rou wasn't a Battle Mage, Xiao Yun wouldn't have had this kind of confidence. But since she was a Battle Mage, Xiao Yun believed he could control the situation. After all, his opponent was still a rookie. Her understanding and control of her class was limited. In a battle of the same class, Xiao Yun believed that he would have the advantage.
He calmly controlled his Great Halberd and jumped back, dodging Han Yanrou's Dragon's Teeth.
He jumped again, dodging Han Yanrou's Dragon's Teeth.
After Double Stab, Dancing Fire Flowing Flame suddenly flipped up. It was Sky Strike, which had come off cooldown. But the Great Halberd's spear dipped down and this Sky Strike was suppressed. Han Yanrou's consecutive attacks didn't succeed.
The corners of Xiao Yun's mouth curled up in a sneer, as if he was a cat playing with a mouse.
But the Magic Chaser had already arrived. It was the Light Chaser he had accumulated from Sky Strike.
Sure enough, she didn't dare to relax for even a moment!
This Light Chaser wasn't outside of Xiao Yun's expectations. He calmly dodged it. Han Yanrou's next attack came even faster. This was the increase in attack speed from the Light Chaser. Xiao Yun didn't fail to consider this point. After dodging the Chaser, he was already on guard against the sudden increase in attack speed.
And his response wasn't just to dodge. That was equivalent to giving Tang Rou time to increase her attack speed. Xiao Yun used more of a parry to limit the continuity of Tang Rou's attacks and disrupt her rhythm.
He did a good job. After all, he was a member of Team Micrograss, and he had trained as a Battle Mage for many years. He was very clear about Tang Rou's attacking rhythm and where to disrupt the opponent and make them feel the most uncomfortable.
Is this happening again …?
Tang Rou was no stranger to this situation. It could even be said that she had just experienced it.
In the last round, against Team Heavenly Swords, even though Happy won 2 points in the group arena, Tang Rou, who played in the first round, lost as soon as the second player went up. The opponent's second contestant, Wen Kebei, was a Battle Mage.
Tang Rou had just experienced a battle between two players of the same class in the previous round, and this round, she once again encountered Xiao Yun of the same class. Both Xiao Yun and Wen Kebei had used this type of restriction interference that could only be done by someone familiar with the class. However, in comparison, Xiao Yun was clearly more experienced than Wen Kebei. Tang Rou was currently being suppressed, and she felt even more uncomfortable than she had in the previous round.
It was more uncomfortable, but it was also more used to it.
Tyrant's Destruction swept out! Tang Rou still wasn't willing to give up on the offensive.
The corner of Xiao Yun's mouth continued to curl up in a relaxed smile. He skillfully moved his mouse, and his character Halberd also used Tyrant's Destruction, colliding with Han Yanrou's Tyrant's Destruction.
In the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, the two spears were about to collide once more. The Dancing Fire Flowing Flame suddenly rose.
In the final moment, just as the two skills were about to collide, Tang Rou adjusted her skill. Everything happened in that instant, without delay, not a single moment could be missed.
She did it!
Dancing Fire Flowing Flame and Halberd's Tyrant's Destruction brushed past each other. At this moment, Han Yanrou leapt into the air, also without delay, barely dodging this attack.
Barely, but in the end, she dodged it. As for Xiao Yun? When he discovered this change, it was already too late to react.
Tang Rou had already suppressed her change to the very end, to the point where she didn't give Xiao Yun any chance to follow up.
Let alone him, even if someone had ten times, a hundred times faster hand speed, they still wouldn't be able to keep up with Tang Rou's change.
Crap!
Xiao Yun could only yell in his heart. He didn't even have time to retract the smile on his face. Halberd had already been swept by Han Yanrou's Tyrant's Destruction. At the same time, a flame burst out, instantly pouring into Halberd. Even Dancing Fire Flowing Flame's special effect, "Flowing Flame", had been activated.
After one successful attack, the rest was much easier. Skills came one after another, each one faster than the last.
This was a combo. An attack that could be interrupted so easily wouldn't be able to form a combo.
Xiao Yun's Halberd and Han Yanrou's Dancing Fire Flowing Flame continuously came into close contact. Tang Rou was completely focused on controlling the halberd. She obviously hoped that she could defeat her opponent in one go, but unfortunately, things didn't go as she wished.
Xiao Yun, who understood Battle Mages, quickly found an opening in Tang Rou's combo.
Furious Dragon Strikes the Heart!
Under this opening, Shao Yun directly snatched out a big move. Tang Rou hastily responded. Han Yanrou's Battle Spear whirled back, but she couldn't completely block this high-level attack.
Han Yanrou's offensive came to an abrupt end. Xiao Yun, however, used Furious Dragon Strikes the Heart to start a wave of counterattacks.
Tang Rou's response was completely different from Xiao Yun's. She didn't observe, judge, or look for opportunities like Xiao Yun. Facing every attack from the Halberd, she was trying to control it. She was constantly controlling it, as if the Halberd's attacks were full of openings. But in reality, the Halberd's attacks hadn't been interrupted. Tang Rou was continuously trying, but to no avail.
But this kind of torment created a strong psychological pressure on her opponent. Xiao Yun felt an extremely strong sense of danger. It was as if the slightest opening would cause him to immediately lose the match.
This kind of feeling was something Xiao Yun didn't expect. He was nervous, he didn't dare to be careless. But the more he was like this, the more his control seemed to be lacking. He often scared himself into a cold sweat. As a result, Xiao Yun's offense didn't last for long. He finally revealed an opening. Tang Rou, who had been persisting, instantly seized the opportunity. She rushed forward as if she wouldn't give up even if she died. After one successful attack, she immediately followed up with a flurry of attacks. Xiao Yun seized the opportunity to disrupt her again? Don't worry, just come again!
The two sides went back and forth like this. But whether it was attacking or being attacked, Tang Rou's Han Yanrou always maintained an attacking stance. When attacking, she pressed forward. When being attacked, she made people feel a strong sense of danger, as if there was a blade at their back.
Xiao Yun's forehead was sweating more and more. The string in his heart was pulled taut.
The tighter it was, the more he didn't dare to let loose. Xiao Yun's worries increased. The more he didn't want to make a mistake, the more mistakes came to him. It seemed as if they were constantly switching between offense and defense. Xiao Yun's attacks were getting shorter and shorter, and Tang Rou's attacks were getting longer and longer.
With this exchange, Han Yanrou's health was gradually pulled back. Xiao Yun watched helplessly. His heart was in a panic, and he made more mistakes. He kept reminding himself to be calm and steady. But his hands didn't seem to be his anymore. They were so stiff and didn't listen to his orders. Where did his usual actions go? Xiao Yun really wanted to stuff his hands into his mouth and bite them.
His 43% health lead was pulled back. Then, he fell behind again.
Xiao Yun became more and more confused. He didn't have half the confidence he had at the start. All that was left was panic.
How could it be like this?
Xiao Yun didn't understand. Against Tang Rou, he was fully prepared. He was full of confidence. Why couldn't he perform when he was on stage? Why was his condition so bad today?
Xiao Yun couldn't calm down. He couldn't control the situation. He could only lose.
Tang Rou succeeded in a 1v2 and smoothly entered the third round of the group arena.
The scene was completely silent.
1v2. This result was already valiant enough. But because Tang Rou had said 1v3, it wasn't over yet. Micrograss's next opponent was their captain, Wang Jiexi. As for Tang Rou? After this round, Han Yanrou only had 16% of her health left.
"Coach Li, what do you think … this …" Commentator Pan Lin was stuttering. Challenging Wang Jiexi with 16% of her health, it was really hard to see any hope!
"Haha, the beauty of competition lies in its unpredictability! Who knows, maybe we'll be able to witness a miracle? "Li Yibo laughed.
"So you're saying that Coach Li has a good opinion of Tang Rou?" Pan Lin said.
"She's already come this far. Tang Rou is also a person full of energy. Maybe she can really do something unimaginable!" Li Yibo said.
"Okay, let's wait and see. After five rounds of focus, it's time to reveal the results. Team Happy's Tang Rou versus Micrograss's Wang Jiexi!" Pan Lin announced.
The live broadcast was announced, and the electronic cards in the stadium showed Micrograss's next player. However, Wang Jiexi wasn't in a hurry to go onstage. Instead, he waited for Shao Yun to return.
Seeing his captain looking at him, Shao Yun lowered his head and found a corner to hide in.
"Tang Rou's scariest part isn't her technique or her hand speed, but her aura." After saying this, Wang Jiexi stepped onto the stage.
Happy versus Micrograss, the third round of the group arena.
This was the last opponent of the 1v3. If she won this one, she would complete her vow. She was just one step away.
However, Tang Rou was already powerless.
Vaccaria slid down from the sky, trailing behind him the remnants of Stars of Extinction.
"1v3 isn't that easy!" Wang Jiexi said.
Wang Jiexi won the third round of the group arena, a complete victory.
The stadium once again fell silent.
Tang Rou had won a 1v3? They felt somewhat unhappy, but seeing her so quickly defeated by Wang Jiexi made them feel very disappointed.
What kind of result they had hoped for, even they didn't know.
Happy's player booth was even more frighteningly silent. Losing a 1v3? That wasn't much. In fact, from the situation of the match, the first person to meet the third person was a huge advantage. However, a 1v3 meant that the result was …
At this moment, no matter how much Chen Guo forced herself, she couldn't squeeze out a smile.
