There were no openings!
Lord Grim was trapped, but Ye Xiu was still very clear-headed. He could only give this evaluation of Zhang Jiale's performance.
Speaking of which, Ye Xiu had watched Zhang Jiale's professional career from up close. From when Hundred Blossoms formed the Berserker and Spitfire partnership to Blossoms and Blood, to when Blossoms and Blood swept through Glory, to when Sun Zheping was injured and forced to retreat, Zhang Jiale grit his teeth and continued alone. Ye Xiu had always been there. He had fought against Zhang Jiale at every stage.
His view was completely the same as Sun Zheping's. The current Zhang Jiale was the strongest. Because he had found a new position, the talent he had accumulated over the years could finally be put to good use.
He couldn't find an opening, but he couldn't keep waiting like this.
Zhang Jiale wasn't setting off fireworks for Ye Xiu to see. Dazzling Hundred Blossoms' bullets, heavy or light, would always deal damage to him. Lord Grim, who was trapped in a smaller and smaller space, was taking more and more damage.
Charge!
Lord Grim suddenly raised his Myriad Manifestations Umbrella. It looked like he was going to endure the damage and escape from this trapped situation. But how could Zhang Jiale not think of something as simple as raising a shield? As soon as he saw the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella open, he immediately reacted.
A grenade flew out and hit the edge of the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella. Then, it actually bounced and flipped over the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, suddenly appearing in front of Ye Xiu.
Unable to react in time, the grenade exploded.
A remote-controlled grenade.
It was a bit weaker than a low-level Impact Grenade, but the user could control the timing of the explosion, so the accuracy was naturally incomparable. Although the damage was low, the explosion was complete. Moreover, the force of the explosion was still there. Lord Grim immediately retreated.
As his body swayed, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella's shield was no longer sufficient. Zhang Jiale took advantage of this opportunity and shot through the gaps.
Boom boom boom boom!
All kinds of explosions intertwined, forming a dazzling scene, forming the most dazzling scene since the beginning of the battle.
Lord Grim's figure had been completely engulfed by the light and shadow, and only a figure could be vaguely seen moving. Zhang Jiale didn't relax at all. He continued to control Dazzling Hundred Blossoms, throwing out all sorts of attacks until even that blurry figure couldn't be seen.
The attack suddenly stopped.
Zhang Jiale discovered that Lord Grim's HP was no longer decreasing.
How was this possible?
Where was there any space for him to hide? It was clearly a dead end!
The attack stopped, and the light and shadow dissipated, leaving only the residual flames and smoke from the explosion. In this enclosed space, it would take some time for the smoke to disperse, but what should be seen could be seen. The so-called dead end of the wall had a hole in it.
Zhang Jiale instantly understood.
The wall on the first floor was sturdy, but it wasn't indestructible. It just needed more attacks. As a result, Ye Xiu had Lord Grim feign a strong attack, baiting Zhang Jiale into counterattacking. Using Hundred Blossoms' firepower and the light and shadow as cover, Zhang Jiale was able to break through the sturdy wall and escape.
Because of this, Ye Xiu had also taken a considerable amount of damage. He only had 19% of his health left, but no matter what, Ye Xiu had still managed to open up a gap in the situation that everyone thought was hopeless.
What a troublesome guy!
Zhang Jiale couldn't remember how many times he had felt this way when facing Ye Xiu in a match.
Creak!
The door on the other side creaked.
Breaking through the wall was the next door. Ye Xiu moved extremely quickly and was about to counterattack. Zhang Jiale hurriedly had Dazzling Hundred Blossoms turn around and fire a barrage of arrows at the door. By the time a figure appeared, it had already been swallowed up by the hundred blossoms. However, this figure was a bit shorter and was knocked down a bit faster. More importantly, Lord Grim's health was still low.
Zhang Jiale had already realized that the situation was bad. When he hurriedly turned around, Lord Grim had already flashed in front of him, coming back through the hole in the wall. As for the one who had broken through the door, it was just one Goblins. It was just to distract Zhang Jiale for a split second.
A split second was enough. Lord Grim had even left behind a shadow at the entrance of the cave. He had used Shadow Clone Technique, the fastest movement skill, to quickly close in on Ye Xiwen.
Dazzling Hundred Blossoms was immediately sent flying into the air. The unspecialized with the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was about to attack.
Blood splattered everywhere.
That was how close combat was fought, using blood to weave together.
Dazzling Hundred Blossoms' health dropped rapidly. Before, he had barely taken any damage. Everyone thought that Zhang Jiale would be able to end this round with very little damage, making up for the disadvantage left behind by Qin Muyun's defeat.
But he hadn't been able to kill Ye Xiu in one go.
19%. He had left Lord Grim so much health, and now he was being bitten instead.
Was he going to be killed in one go?
Everyone began to worry for Zhang Jiale.
Ye Xiu's unspecialized had done this too many times this season. Biting down on one opportunity, never letting go.
Zhang Jiale obviously knew this. Ye Xiu was undoubtedly the most important player in their research on Happy. This was an old opponent that Tyranny and the others were incomparably familiar with. Yet, he had changed classes, giving them a headache for a long time.
A change in class meant a change in playstyle. However, a person's experience, awareness, judgment, habits, and so on wouldn't change.
Team Tyranny, Han Wenqing, Ye Xiu's opponent for ten years.
Zhang Jiale, Lin Jingyan, they were both second-generation players in the Alliance.
In the entire Glory scene, the top players who had fought against Ye Xiu the most and were most familiar with him were all gathered in Team Tyranny.
If they had to imagine the unspecialized's playstyle, they would also have a hard time. But when it came to grasping Ye Xiu's train of thought, they had an advantage over the other team's players.
When time took away some things from them, it would also leave some for them.
You want to kill me in one go?
Zhang Jiale was the only one who, like Ye Xiu, had experience in the finals four times. No one had seen the pinnacle of the game more than the two of them. And the embarrassing result of coming in second place four times had always tempered his temperament.
He had experienced the greatest setback four times. Now, it was just a rise and fall in a match. For him, it was insignificant.
From the moment he was thrown into the air, he was already resisting. Dazzling Hundred Blossoms, who was in the air, continuously threw down all sorts of grenades. Lord Grim was practically flipping over a piggy bank.
A character in the air was actually able to make such a powerful counterattack. This was something that no one had expected. Some of the effect grenades were things that Ye Xiu had no choice but to deal with, but most of them were things that he didn't have the energy to do while still attacking.
Grenades fell from the sky.
Dazzling light blossomed on the ground. Within it, Lord Grim's figure stubbornly walked forward.
Such a powerful counterattack actually didn't force him back. He actually still stubbornly maintained his offensive.
Everyone was astonished.
Han Wenqing, who had never backed down in the face of Tyranny, had backed down in front of Ye Xiu today. But now, Ye Xiu, in this situation, bravely advanced like Han Wenqing.
It was a trade!
The pro players watching the match, like Yu Wenzhou, Huang Shaotian, and Sun Zheping, all understood.
Ye Xiu dealt with some of the grenades that would interrupt his offensive, and then did his best to avoid the rest of the damage. Then, he did his best to deal as much damage as possible to Dazzling Hundred Blossoms.
A clear trade, a standard Arena playstyle.
What he pursued was no longer victory or defeat in this round, but to kill as many opponents as possible in this round to pave the way for the next player to come up.
"Actually, he's still trying to save trouble, right?" Huang Shaotian messaged Yu Wenzhou.
"Maybe …" Yu Wenzhou replied.
Some of the audience were hoping that Zhang Jiale would break the stalemate, while others were hoping that Ye Xiu would end it all in one go. However, the experts all understood that this round would only end in an exchange.
In the end, Lord Grim fell. Dazzling Hundred Blossoms had 61% of his health remaining.
Victory or defeat?
In the group arena, it was always a bit unreasonable to talk about individual victory or defeat.
Ye Xiu lost, but he took away 39% of his opponent's health. This was the margin by which Happy continued to lead.
Zhang Jiale won, but compared to his expectations when he pushed Lord Grim into the corner, it was clearly a bit lacking.
Pan Lin and Li Yibo were supposed to give a summary of the match after the end of the match, but right now, the two didn't get to the main point.
This match looked so dazzling and direct. Everything was displayed in front of everyone's eyes. But if they only said this, the two felt like they hadn't said it clearly. But where should the main point be? The two were at a loss.
Ye Xiu left the stage, and the crowd applauded. Everyone could accept this kind of result, especially the final counterattack, which had been quite exciting. Although it was a bit regretful that he hadn't killed his opponent in one go. But against this kind of powerhouse, the expectation of a 1v2 was a bit too high!
Who would be the next to go up?
The audience clapped as they stared at the big screen. They wanted to see the name of Happy's next player as soon as possible.
Mo Fan!
The name appeared.
Mo Fan, who had been given the nickname of God Killer, now had a fairly stable spot in Happy's group arena. And his playstyle was also recognized by everyone as suitable for the group arena.
After the name appeared on the big screen, Mo Fan stood up and walked toward the stage. On the way, he naturally brushed past Ye Xiu. They didn't talk, only nodding to say "I see you."
Pan Lin and Li Yibo didn't know how to conclude the previous match, so they quickly changed the topic to the next match.
"God Killer, against Zhang Jiale, who still has 61% of his health left." Pan Lin said meaningfully. Even though their health wasn't equal, if Mo Fan won, then another name would be added to his God Killer's kill list.
