Silence. Complete silence.
Neither player knew what the other was doing. Even if they listened carefully, they couldn't catch a single sound.
Only the spectators with the omniscient view knew that the two characters were actually moving.
Lord Grim followed up with a Slide Kick and two rolls, quickly escaping from his original ambush spot. As for Huang Shaotian's Troubling Rain? Just as Ye Xiu expected, he stopped moving quickly, rolled, and moved slowly, silently approaching Lord Grim's original hiding place.
Without hesitation, his sword flashed and disappeared.
Shing!
Lord Grim's original hiding place was a meter tall Earth Wall. Troubling Rain used Piercing Form.
This skill had extremely high priority. The sword was swallowed by the Earth Wall in a flash, revealing a bit of the sword's upper half.
He missed. Huang Shaotian made a quick judgment. He was about to pull out Troubling Rain's sword, but Ye Xiu's Lord Grim had already flashed out from this angle. With a BIU sound, a Laser Cannon shot out.
This was just Lord Grim Slide Kick. How far could it go? The Laser Cannon arrived in a flash. But Huang Shaotian was facing this direction, so he could see it clearly. No matter what, he couldn't just throw his sword away. Troubling Rain immediately crouched down.
Boom!
Half of the Laser Cannon hit the wall, creating a hole in it. The other half, however, went straight through, brushing past Troubling Rain's head as he crouched down.
In the end, the Laser Cannon didn't have the biting cold impact of Piercing Form. In addition, Lord Grim's Laser Cannon was only level one. Being able to create a gap was already a pretty good performance.
Shing!
Troubling Rain's Silver weapon, Ice Rain, had already been pulled back. Troubling Rain was hiding behind the Earth Wall.
Slide Kick!
On Ye Xiu's side, Lord Grim Laser Cannon shot out. Seeing Troubling Rain shrink back, he immediately rushed out. However, at this time, the live audience once again captured a very important battle opportunity from the big electronic screen.
From Huang Shaotian's perspective, after Bing Yu pulled back from the wall, he immediately looked at the small hole that was the size of a sword. The hole was too small to see what was on the other side, but he could see the shadow moving.
Other than the Troubling Rain, the only thing that could move on this map was Ye Xiu's Lord Grim.
Lord Grim's silent slide kick was completely captured by Huang Shaotian through such a small hole.
The distance was very close. Huang Shaotian didn't hesitate at all. When Troubling Rain got up, he had already flipped horizontally. He directly rolled off the meter tall Earth Wall. Ice Rain's dark blue sword light pierced towards the bottom of the wall. But on the other side of the wall, Lord Grim Slide Kick had already raised his Myriad Manifestations Umbrella. The tip of the umbrella flipped open, revealing the black muzzle of a gun. As the dark blue sword light pierced down, the muzzle of the gun spat out a flash of light. A bullet left the chamber!
Pu pu!
The two sounds gradually became a bit out of sync. It was hard to tell who was first and who was second. Blood spurted out from Lord Grim's shoulder. Troubling Rain, who had rolled to the side of the wall, was hit in the waist by a bullet.
Lord Grim, who hadn't finished sliding, suddenly froze after this sword strike. He, who was already in close contact with the ground, seemed to be in even closer contact with the ground after this strike.
Falling Blossom Form! A Level 75 skill that forced people to fall to the ground.
It looked like a good opportunity for Troubling Rain to follow up with an attack. But at this moment, Troubling Rain's body had already floated into the air.
Floating Bullet! A Level 1 skill that forced people to fall to the ground.
One was a high-level Blade Master skill, the other was a beginner Spitfire skill. In this instant, the exchange was completed. In terms of damage, Falling Blossom Form was who knew how many times stronger than Floating Bullet. But in the end, one was stuck to the ground while the other was in the air. It looked like neither could do anything to the other.
But it only looked like it.
Because Lord Grim wasn't Troubling Rain. He had long-range attacks.
Bang!
Lord Grim, who was still lying on the ground, fired another shot. At this moment, Troubling Rain's sword, which was firmly nailed to the ground, gave Lord Grim a very comfortable shooting angle and space. If the Slide Kick had continued to slide out two more steps, it might not have been so comfortable.
Another bullet flew out.
Troubling Rain, who had been kicked up by the Floating Bullet, didn't fly very high. At this distance, for a long-range attack, it was too close. It was so close that their skill's flying speed could be ignored, even if Lord Grim used the relatively slow Stun Bullet.
Pu!
Huang Shaotian adjusted Troubling Rain's body in the air, but in the end, he still couldn't dodge this shot. His character's body instantly froze. His adjustments were useless. Boom boom boom. Cannonfire sounded below him. At such a close distance, he couldn't dodge, let alone when he was still stunned. Three Anti-Tank Missiles exploded on Troubling Rain's body. Sparks and smoke from the explosions rolled in the air, stopping Troubling Rain in midair. At this moment, Lord Grim's debuff had already passed. As he stood up, a string of bullets shot out from the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella's muzzle.
Gatling Gun! Ye Xiu tried to have Troubling Rain continue to roll in the air. After Lord Grim stood up, he could use more skills to continue attacking.
But Ye Xiu's opponent this round was Huang Shaotian.
His character was known as the Sword Saint. His strength was recognized as one of the top Gods in Glory.
As soon as Troubling Rain's Stun Bullet's debuff wore off, he immediately moved.
Falling Light Blade!
Troubling Rain forcefully pressed down from the air. Ye Xiu immediately had Lord Grim adjust his shooting angle and keep up with the bullets. But after Troubling Rain twisted his body, he immediately switched to another skill.
Block!
Ding ding ding ding!
The Silver weapon, Frost Rain, blocked the attacks. Surprisingly, it was bullets. It didn't need to be said how amazing his eyesight and precise controls were. However, Ye Xiu wasn't dead. After several bullets were blocked, he adjusted Lord Grim's shooting angle again. His sword moved to the side, dodging Frost Rain's blade. But Frost Rain had already reached out and a sword circle cut through the air.
Headwind Stab!
Troubling Rain's body spun in the air. His sword reached out and intersected with the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella's bullets, slashing into Lord Grim's body.
Blood splattered everywhere, forming a circle in the air. Lord Grim's Gatling Gun's continuous firing was suddenly interrupted.
"Amazing! Truly amazing! As expected of Huang Shaotian, as expected of the Sword Saint!!! "Pan Lin shouted without a care for anything else.
The two went from being separated by a wall to clashing. In a short instant, all sorts of skills were used. In the end, Huang Shaotian's exquisite sword skill broke through Ye Xiu's close range attacks. Headwind Stab!
In the previous round, Lu Hanwen had broken through Ye Xiu's offense and counterattacked with Headwind Stab. In this match, Huang Shaotian had seized the initiative from the passive position. He had also used the Headwind Thrust to attack.
And then, Huang Shaotian showed that he was even more skilled than Lu Hanwen. He was also more experienced as a Blade Master.
Troubling Rain, who was still spinning in the air, didn't fall to the ground. His bent legs kicked off the ground and stepped on the wall behind him.
Meteor Form!
It was one of the fastest Blade Master skills, and with Troubling Rain's push off the wall, it was as if he had turned into a shooting star.
The faint blue sword light continued to flash in front, transforming into a blue line that flashed past. And then, the blue line's path was replaced by a bright red that bloomed and spread. This was the blood that Lord Grim had drawn from his body.
"So cool!!" Pan Lin shouted loudly. The scene of the blood lines spreading out from the blue lines made him almost cry from the coolness of it. He swore to himself that after the match, he would replay this scene in slow motion a hundred times.
"As expected of Huang Shaotian!" At this time, Li Yibo could only use this kind of concise and comprehensive expression to express his shock at this moment.
His grasp of timing, his utilization of the terrain, and his control of his skills were all at the peak.
This was Glory's top expert.
And this match was a confrontation between two of Glory's top players.
After Ye Xiu defeated two of Blue Rain's players in a row, the atmosphere had truly reached a boiling point.
In those two matches, although Song Xiao's steady defense and Lu Hanwen's bravery didn't shrink back, Ye Xiu's victory seemed so easy. No one felt the tension of the playoffs at all. At least, that was how it looked.
But now, Ye Xiu against Huang Shaotian, Lord Grim against Troubling Rain, a high-paced attack, a beautiful battle scene. This was what a high-level battle looked like!
However, Huang Shaotian was playing beautifully, and the one who was cheering was Huang Shaotian. This was Happy's home game, so the atmosphere in the stadium was limited. Only the Blue Rain fans in the away team's stands were cheering loudly.
Changing Spring, Lan He, Chilling Nightfall, Flying Brushstroke, Bound Boat, and so on and so forth.
These Blue Brook Pavilion's management level figures were also participating in the final stages of the season. This was a benefit given to them by the Club, but at the same time, they were the organizers and main force that led the Blue Rain fans to cheer for the team.
"Huang Shao!!!" The Blue Rain fans shouted under their lead. Changing Spring personally held the flag with their Team Blue Rain emblem embroidered on it, waving it vigorously in the air above the stadium.
Lan He, who was sitting next to him, was also very excited. Although his shout wasn't particularly loud, his in-game class was a Blade Master. This was his favorite class. Huang Shaotian was his favorite player.
And right now, Huang Shaotian's opponent was Ye Xiu, the Lord Grim that they had fought many times in the game, the one who had made them cough up who knew how much health they had lost.
Everyone in Blue Brook Pavilion had been waiting for the team's pro players to help them vent their anger. Happy had enjoyed watching Blue Rain's double kill in the regular season. Unfortunately, Ye Xiu had faced Blue Rain twice in the individual competition and still hadn't lost.
And then, in the playoffs, he had swiftly defeated the two of them.
Don't mention how depressed Changing Spring, Blue River, and the others were in the audience. Could it be that even their pro players couldn't take care of this guy?
But now, their core, their God, Huang Shaotian, was up. Even though Blue Rain was down by two points, even though Ye Xiu had defeated two players in a row and was already at a health and mana disadvantage in the third round. But Huang Shaotian's brilliant performance still made them extremely excited and proud.
See! This is our Blue Rain's God! Lan He thought to himself with incomparable pride.
