The two characters stood on the other side of the wall, only inches apart. Their auras were incomparably heavy.
Until a message appeared in the chat.
"You come in!"
"You come out!"
The childish conversation instantly destroyed the serious and tense atmosphere. The audience didn't know whether to laugh or not. They were all scratching their hearts and lungs.
But while Ye Xiu was spamming out these meaningless words, he made a move. In the end, Lord Grim didn't directly break through the door, but he didn't go around the other rooms either. Instead, he nimbly made his way out through the windows of the two aisles. Then, he brandished his ninjato and flipped to the second floor window in a few moves. He flipped in and quickly chose a position.
Everyone suddenly understood. This move, was he planning to directly break through the floor of the second floor and launch a surprise attack?
In an indoor environment, if a holographic projection wanted to perfectly present a 360-degree view of the audience, it was quite complicated. It required cutting out many areas that obstructed the view. At this moment, the floor of the second floor seemed to be suspended in the air. Ye Xiu's Lord Grim and Zhang Jiale's Dazzling Hundred Blossoms were just like this, one on top and one below. The distance was still inches apart, but it had changed from horizontal to vertical.
On the first floor, Zhang Jiale didn't notice. Dazzling Hundred Blossoms held a gun in one hand and a grenade in the other. He was in a position where he could ambush every entrance and exit of this building.
But right now, Ye Xiu wasn't planning on going through the front door!
Hualala!
Ye Xiu really valued time very much. After going up to the second floor, he didn't hesitate at all. In fact, before many people's train of thought had completely caught up, he had already begun to move.
The walls of this ancient castle were quite fragile. Another skill, and it was already pierced through. Lord Grim was sandwiched between the falling fragments. Looking down from above, he already saw Dazzling Hundred Blossoms' position. The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella turned and opened fire!
Zhang Jiale's reaction wasn't slow either. The moment he heard the noise above his head and pulled up his camera, he aimed his automatic pistol, the Silver weapon, Hunter, and threw out the grenade in his left hand. Then, while confirming the situation above him, he threw out grenades one after another. He looked like a hidden weapon expert in wuxia novels, but also like a magician playing poker. The grenades in his hand were thrown out one after another, like a hidden weapon expert in wuxia novels, and like a magician playing poker.
Boom boom boom boom!
The middle section of the room was suddenly swallowed by the flames of the explosion. Just like the corridor outside, it was forcibly cut into two.
Caught off guard?
Ye Xiu's intentions were quite unexpected, but this method was too violent. When the skill landed on the second floor, a sound could be heard. Zhang Jiale immediately responded, so he had more than enough time. What Ye Xiu had won was actually the same situation as when Zhang Jiale had Dazzling Hundred Blossoms rush out from behind the door. The situation wasn't good or bad. It just depended on whose reaction was faster.
Before, the two had fought to a draw in the corridor, but this time, who had the upper hand?
Roundhouse Kick!
Dazzling Hundred Blossoms suddenly used a low-level Sharpshooter skill, sweeping 360 degrees around him.
Kick air!
There was no one around Dazzling Hundred Blossoms. Zhang Jiale immediately knew that his prediction had been wrong. He originally thought that Ye Xiu would use this as a cover to quickly close in, but unexpectedly, Ye Xiu didn't do so.
One wrong step, and an opening suddenly appeared. Amidst the light of the explosion, Lord Grim seemed to fly on a sword, Falling Light Blade falling down.
He actually hung in the air for so long?
The audience could clearly see that after Lord Grim broke through the floor, he wasn't in a hurry to descend. The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella turned around and fired a few shots before transforming back into a ninja blade and nailing it to the roof.
From the start, Ye Xiu didn't think that his descent from the sky would directly cause trouble for Zhang Jiale, so he created an unusual situation. In the end, with this time difference, he attacked when Zhang Jiale had made a mistake.
Zhang Jiale didn't have time to dodge. Falling Light Blade fell, directly knocking down Dazzling Hundred Blossoms. But right after, there was an explosion. Lord Grim was directly blown away by the blast. A hole appeared in the ground. This was the mark left behind by a landmine explosion.
Ye Xiu seized the opportunity to attack, but he didn't expect Zhang Jiale to also have an ambush here. In the second clash, the two were once again evenly matched, fighting to a draw. However, this was only in terms of the situation. In terms of damage, Ye Xiu's Lord Grim had passed through the line of fire the first time. The second time, he had been blown up in midair. After that, he had forcefully passed through the line of fire, but he had accumulated quite a bit of damage. After being blown away by this landmine, Lord Grim's health had dropped from 57% at the start of the battle to 42%.
Both times, he had used up a lot of health to attack, but he hadn't been able to establish the initiative. In terms of this exchange, even though Ye Xiu had been the main attacker, in the end, the one who had taken advantage of it was Zhang Jiale.
"A defensive playstyle!" Team Blue Rain was a defensive team, so they were naturally very sensitive to defensive playstyles. Seeing the situation, Huang Shaotian immediately sent a message to Yu Wenzhou.
"That's right." Yu Wenzhou's reply confirmed this point. At this moment, in the broadcast, Pan Lin and Li Yibo were still exclaiming in admiration at the two players' quick reactions and their evenly matched responses. The two of them hadn't noticed the deeper meaning behind it yet!
"That's more like you!" In another part of the audience, a spectator who had been watching the match in a low-key manner also let out this sigh.
Sun Zheping!
The former partner of Blossoms and Blood, the former God who was currently using his limited time in Team Heavenly Swords. He couldn't be considered a celebrity anymore. The attention he had initially attracted upon his return had gradually died down due to his limited appearances in Team Heavenly Swords.
In the playoffs, Team Heavenly Swords had nothing to do with him. His dream of becoming a champion had long since faded away. He was only relying on his desire for Glory, which he couldn't completely give up, to stay here and be a bystander.
Yes, a bystander. His appearance and contribution could only be considered a bystander. As a result, Sun Zheping didn't feel too much regret about not being able to get along with the dark horse Happy. Happy was the starting point of his contribution. This grassroots team, which he wasn't unfamiliar with, was actually heading straight for the championship. If he were still on this team, Sun Zheping believed that he would definitely go crazy from not being able to unleash himself at such an important moment.
Choosing Team Heavenly Swords was a wise choice. Sun Zheping didn't regret it.
And seeing Happy rushing to this point, Sun Zheping felt even more gratified.
He was looking forward to this team creating a miracle, just like when they defeated Excellent Era in the Challenger League. But now, Happy had actually bumped into Tyranny … ….
Sun Zheping didn't have many feelings for Tyranny. The only reason he cared was because Zhang Jiale, his former partner, and his most familiar friend were there.
Sun Zheping completely understood his feelings, his goals, and his pursuits. But at this moment, Zhang Jiale and Happy had bumped into each other.
This was really a very difficult situation to deal with. But Sun Zheping was a straightforward person. He didn't feel conflicted. When enemies met on a narrow path, the courageous would win. His belief was that simple. His mood would never become a burden on the field, so when he watched the match, it was the same.
But the Zhang Jiale he saw right now didn't seem as desperate, especially compared to when he led Team Hundred Blossoms after Sun Zheping's injury.
Did he not have the fighting spirit he had back then?
Of course not, because this was the style that suited him the most.
The Hundred Blossoms style was hailed as the most dazzling and romantic style in Glory. As the founder of this style, Zhang Jiale didn't rely on imitations of technique. This was the reflection of his personality in his use of technique. He had always been this kind of person. That kind of desperate, desperate hacking was very incompatible with him.
But in Team Hundred Blossoms, after Sun Zheping's injury, Zhang Jiale could only shoulder his desperate efforts as well.
Actually, it didn't have to be like this.
Sun Zheping had always wanted to say this to Zhang Jiale, but this burden had been placed entirely on Zhang Jiale's shoulders because of his injury. When Zhang Jiale was doing his best to carry it, how could he be so unreasonable as to tell him not to do it?
If he was willing to carry it, then he had to move forward with determination!
Sun Zheping was this kind of person. He would only stubbornly encourage his old friend.
Unfortunately, in the end, Zhang Jiale only swallowed the bitter fruit.
It wasn't until he came to Tyranny that he finally had the burden of the past lifted. Zhang Jiale didn't need to shoulder the responsibility of two people by himself. And so, the original Zhang Jiale from Blood and Blossoms returned. This was the most suitable state for him.
And in this match, Sun Zheping saw it clearly.
The Hundred Blossoms style was a cover, a cover, a filling in the gaps between teammates, a powerful boost to teammates' offense. This was a very careful playstyle. It wasn't something that could be achieved through complex maneuvers. That kind of Hundred Blossoms wasn't the real Hundred Blossoms.
In the years when Zhang Jiale led the Hundred Blossoms on his own, his technique had become more refined, but his Hundred Blossoms style had somewhat deviated from the essence of what it should be.
But now, it was completely back.
In fact, because of his increase in experience, Zhang Jiale's Hundred Blossoms style was even more careful, tightly interlocking, not allowing a single drop of water to leak out.
Did everyone think that the Hundred Blossoms style hadn't been laid out yet?
That would be a big mistake.
In the passageway, in the air, those exploding flames were all part of the Hundred Blossoms style. And in this kind of space, the Hundred Blossoms blossomed, and there were no gaps to take advantage of. Lord Grim, who charged in forcefully, could only bear the damage that should be done.
To think that the Hundred Blossoms style should be a continuous stream of light and shadow, so that no one could see anything, this kind of understanding was a bit monotonous.
The real Hundred Blossoms didn't blossom everywhere, but everywhere.
For example, the light and shadow blocking the opponent's view. Did it need to completely cover 360 degrees?
No.
What it really needed was for a ball of light and shadow to suddenly appear in the opponent's view at the most critical moment.
Boom boom boom boom …
In the narrow space, the explosions continued. For a moment, Lord Grim couldn't get close to the front.
The explosions didn't seem to be continuous, but every time Ye Xiu prepared to control Lord Grim to charge forward, there would be a ball of light exploding, dazzling his eyes.
This was intentional. Ye Xiu was completely aware. So when the opponent could do this, he didn't dare to blindly charge forward.
The space to move was being compressed. The exits had been cut off. Lord Grim was surrounded by the Hundred Blossoms.
