Qi Blade!
A cluster of internal energy without any light or shadow effects streaked through the air. One could only imagine how blurry it was. For this skill, one needed to observe the character's movements to predict and dodge. Otherwise, it would be difficult to grasp the distance.
However, He Ming didn't notice Hai Wuliang's Qi Blade at all, but this cluster of internal energy had already flown in front of Rullo.
It was too late to dodge!
Rullo was hit by the Qi Blade just like that without a sound, and he immediately staggered. There were many spectators who weren't attentive enough to notice this Qi Blade. At that moment, they were all wondering what kind of spell Rullo's trembling was for.
Hai Wuliang, who was still rolling, jumped into the air almost at the same time. When he waved his palms out, a portion of the internal energy that he had gathered shot out.
Sky Piercing Strike!
The forceful internal energy rolled up the dust on the ground and smashed into Rullo's face. It wasn't that He Ming didn't react. He wanted to dodge, but it was too late. He thought that the distance between him and Hai Wuliang was quite safe. He was confident that he could calmly deal with any attack from a Qi Master. In the end, he only noticed when the Qi Blade was right in front of him. And then, a skill as powerful as Sky Piercing Strike was actually hidden?
What kind of playstyle was this? Was it related to his Thief's movement style?
He Ming was a mature professional player after all. Although he didn't fully understand it, he quickly found the crux of the matter. The source was the Thief's movement style.
For Thieves, this type of movement allowed them to set up traps faster, and at the same time, it allowed them to be more hidden. Otherwise, if a Thief suddenly crouched down and dug a hole while running, even an idiot would know that you were setting up a trap. What use was a trap with its location exposed?
Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang also used this type of movement style. He didn't have any traps to set up, but he achieved the effect that Thieves wanted: his attacks were like traps, hidden and suddenly revealed.
This was Fang Rui's specialty.
The former number one Thief, Fang Rui, had already perfected this kind of rhythm.
Now, he was using it on a Qi Master. He had just used two skills, and he already felt extremely carefree.
Stupid! Why didn't he think of this earlier?
Was there any long-range attack that was easier to conceal than a Qi Master's Qigong attack? There were no sound effects, and the lighting effects were the most low-profile. It was simply a moving trap. Qi Masters were really wretched! This kind of secretive method was really cool.
Now that he had been enlightened and changed his perspective, Fang Rui found the righteous and honorable Qi Master profession to be a wretched one. There had never been a Qi Master who understood the profession in such a way.
After the Sky Piercing Cannon, Hai Wuliang followed suit and jumped backwards. This jump was actually in the direction of Rullo.
"What are you doing?" Rullo had just been blasted by the Sky Piercing Cannon to the point that he almost did a somersault on the ground. It seemed like it took him some effort to stabilize himself. When He Ming looked again, he saw that Hai Wuliang was jumping backwards towards him. His back was facing him?
Boundless Sea landed in a crouching position. He Ming could faintly see that Boundless Sea's hands seemed to be on the ground?
F * ck!
With a shake of the camera, He Ming did not do anything but Rullo was sent flying into the air.
Landmine Quake! He actually used it with his back facing the ground. How could this person be so wretched!
Landmine Quake was not like a target jumping on a trampoline. This quake was also a movement of Qigong. It flipped the target in the area.
Rullo's body fell, and He Ming hurriedly Quick Recovered. Hai Wuliang, who had jumped backwards and landed on the ground, took advantage of the momentum to do another somersault. When he got up and turned around, both of his hands were pushed outwards. With a Spiral Qi Rush, he pounced towards Rullo's chest.
He could only teleport!
He Ming's mind was clear. He knew that this was the only skill that could allow him to escape this attack. He hurriedly made his move, but he was still too slow. The two streams of Qigong intertwined and blasted Rullo. Rullo's body was instantly twisted and spun. With a boom, he was plastered to the wall behind him. Fang Rui could be considered to have avenged the Fire Bird for pasting him to the wall.
This guy!
He Ming was a little nervous. Fang Rui's fighting style was suddenly different from what he had observed and understood from the previous eight rounds. It was quite common to take advantage of the changes in movements such as somersaulting and leaping to attack. However, no one had done it as thoroughly as Fang Rui, who desperately used such a posture to conceal his attack.
When the Qigong Blade was discovered, it was already in front of him.
When Sky Piercing Strike was unleashed, a small portion of the Qigong Blade had already been released.
Landmine Quake, with his back facing him, blocked the attack.
Spiral Qi Rush and a backward leap to conceal Landmine Quake were methods to close the distance for this skill. Then, after the skill was completed in the somersaulting, he got up and left. Even if an Elementalist had Teleport, He Ming could not use it in time.
How was this a Qigong Master's attack? This was a Thief secretly setting up one trap after another in front of the opponent. However, the traps were for the opponent to trigger them passively. At this moment, his' trap 'was more active.
Hai Wuliang was on the move again, using the Thief's style. He rolled and leaped, pouncing towards Rullo like a hunting dog.
Ice Wall!
He Ming hurriedly controlled Rullo, who had just fallen from the wall, to use one of his few Ice skills. I'll block it first. I … need some time to think!
Having never seen a Qigong Master's battle style before, He Ming had no way of instantly interpreting how to respond. He needed more time to observe and study Fang Rui's attack style.
The Ice Wall's obstruction prevented Hai Wuliang from directly attacking Rullo. Go around? That would only become a childish game of two people circling around a table. Fang Rui did not hesitate. Just like before in the corridor, Hai Wuliang pushed against the Ice Wall with his palm.
Last time, he was the one panicking. But this time, the one panicking should be the opponent, right?
Don't panic. I still have the advantage.
He Ming glanced at the two characters' health bars, looking for confidence. If they were to compare, his advantage was quite large.
But what should he do next?
He Ming saw that Hai Wuliang's attack was about to shatter the Ice Wall, but he did not control his character to do anything.
"You can't run." Fang Rui sent a smirking emoji. The Ice Wall shattered at that moment, but Rullo suddenly disappeared as well.
"I guessed it!" Hai Wuliang directly jumped back. His back once again became a cover for his qi condensation. But this time, before he could turn around, a bolt of lightning struck his back.
Hai Wuliang, who had jumped back, froze in midair and fell down.
The audience was dumbstruck.
To be honest, they couldn't understand this battle.
Because from their omniscient view, normal players who weren't skilled enough wouldn't be able to see the effects of Fang Rui's change in playstyle. From their point of view, He Ming should have been able to dodge those consecutive skills, but they had all landed on him.
It was like Vanishing Step, a dead angle strategy, a false combo in certain situations. Only the player in the battle knew how difficult it was for them to face.
It was the same for He Ming at that time.
But then, the Ice Wall rose, Hai Wuliang rushed forward, Rullo teleported away, and then Hai Wuliang pushed himself against his back and sent himself towards Rullo without even looking back.
Was he looking to die?
That was what everyone thought.
And then, Hai Wuliang was indeed blasted down by Rullo's spell.
"Aiyo, I think I made a very low-level mistake …" Fang Rui also turned around. He was so engrossed in this sneaky playstyle that he forgot that when you were sneaking around, you had to make sure that you weren't attacked by your opponent, right?
This time, his jump back was too casual, too natural.
The audience thought that Fang Rui was looking to die, but at that moment, He Ming was quite nervous. Although he immediately controlled Rullo to cast a Piercing Lightning, he was really afraid that Hai Wuliang had another hidden skill. Before Piercing Lightning was cast, it would hit him first.
In the end, it didn't!
After Piercing Lightning struck down Hai Wuliang, He Ming relaxed. He hurriedly began to take advantage of this opportunity. His spell formation spread out, trapping Hai Wuliang once again.
"Die!"
Seeing Hai Wuliang's health drop, He Ming felt an unprecedented urgency. It was as if he would lose if he couldn't finish off his opponent in this wave. His character's health was clearly leading by so much, but a thick sense of danger enveloped him.
Glory!
The two words finally popped up on the screen. He Ming felt relieved. No matter what, he had finally won this round, and it was a good result too. Rullo still had more than half of his health left.
The loser Fang Rui left the stage, but he wasn't depressed. He had lost this round, but he saw a magical future. If this wasn't a regular match, he definitely would have shamelessly continued to lie on the stage and ask for another round with his opponent. He wanted to quickly find out whether this future was real or not.
Fang Rui was so proud of himself that his teammates didn't even bother to comfort him.
"You seem to have discovered something new?" Ye Xiu asked. The others weren't surprised by Fang Rui's expression even after losing, because they had heard Ye Xiu's interpretation of Fang Rui's sudden adjustment.
"Yeah, do you think it's working?" Fang Rui asked humbly. The person in front of him was an all-class expert. He was proficient in both Qi Master and Thief, so he should be able to give a very pertinent opinion.
"It looks pretty good, as long as you avoid those vomit-inducing mistakes," Ye Xiu said.
"That was just an accident." Fang Rui said disapprovingly. At that time, he had been too immersed in his new understanding, which was why he had made such a careless mistake. He wouldn't make such a mistake again. However, after hearing Ye Xiu's affirmation, Fang Rui became even more Happy.
"I really want to study it properly. Who's next? Hurry up and finish the battle! I'm in a hurry, "Fang Rui yelled.
Mo Fan stood up. He didn't say anything about Fang Rui's yelling, and silently walked toward the stage.
"Walk faster!" Fang Rui yelled at his back.
Mo Fan's body clearly stiffened, but then, his footsteps awkwardly sped up a little.
