"Yes, I chose it for you." Lin Jingyan replied in the chat. Dark Thunder, charge!
"Lin Jingyan is initiating the attack!" Pan Lin immediately cried out in surprise. Up until now, no one had been able to obstruct Ye Xiu and Lord Grim in a direct confrontation. It was already surprising enough that Tyranny had chosen a map that could only be fought head-on, but now, Lin Jingyan had actually taken the initiative to attack.
"Could it be that Tyranny has found a way to counter the unspecialized?" Pan Lin continued to shout.
But soon afterwards, Dark Thunder was sent flying.
"This..." Pan Lin was dumbstruck. It didn't look like he had found a way to counter the unspecialized.
Lord Grim chased after him. Now, Ye Xiu began his counterattack. Pan Lin continued his passionate commentary. To the side, Li Yibo remained silent.
He carefully watched the exchange between Lin Jingyan and Ye Xiu. He also wondered if Tyranny had found a way to counter Ye Xiu's unspecialized. After all, the most experienced players in Glory right now, apart from Ye Xiu, were Tyranny and the others. The unspecialized required an incomparable amount of experience to support it. Perhaps only Tyranny and the others could find a way to counter it.
But, with only three skills...
After three skills, Dark Thunder was sent flying by Lord Grim. Li Yibo didn't see any way for Lin Jingyan to counter it, but he could see that the veteran Lin Jingyan was powerless against the fast-paced unspecialized.
But...
Ye Xiu seized the opportunity to counterattack. Lin Jingyan's resistance was as strong as ever.
Lin Jingyan didn't try to circle around Ye Xiu, didn't try to avoid Ye Xiu, and didn't have the wretched style he used to have when he was teaming up with Fang Rui. Lin Jingyan looked like he was going to fight Ye Xiu head on.
Using one's weakness to attack the enemy's strength. No matter how you looked at it, this was impulsive. But how could an experienced player like Lin Jingyan make such a low-level mistake?
What was Tyranny trying to do? Li Yibo searched for the answer. Many people were searching for the answer.
Bang bang bang...
After another intense exchange of skills, the two characters once again bounced back.
"That sharp?" Ye Xiu smiled in the chat.
"Yes!" Lin Jingyan replied. Dark Thunder rushed again!
He didn't have the advantage. Lin Jingyan clearly didn't have the advantage. After a series of exchanges, Dark Thunder had lost a fifth of his health, while Lord Grim hadn't even lost a tenth of his health. But Lin Jingyan didn't adjust. He didn't change. He continued to use the same rhythm. He still looked like he couldn't beat Ye Xiu. He fought head-on.
Lord Grim dodged, changed directions, and retreated...
"Huh?"
Countless spectators were puzzled.
Ye Xiu's method didn't have any problems. There were no openings. But this sort of attitude, this sort of direction, he was... dodging!
Ye Xiu was dodging Lin Jingyan's head-on attacks. Was Lin Jingyan's attacks a threat?
Of course, for the normal spectators, Lin Jingyan's attacks were enough to crush any one of them. But when watching a match, they had to put themselves in the shoes of a pro player. Lin Jingyan's attacks were meant to cause trouble for Ye Xiu. Would this trouble be limited? From the previous exchange, it was clear that Ye Xiu had the advantage in a head-on clash.
But he clearly had the upper hand, so why did he choose to dodge?
He didn't give everyone much time to think, because Lin Jingyan was determined to fight to the end. Dark Thunder quickly turned, chasing after Lord Grim and attacking again.
Lord Grim stepped back again. Dark Thunder continued to press … and then, there was no way out. Lin Jingyan was an experienced player. He couldn't just let Ye Xiu dodge around. He would think of a strategy to completely block Ye Xiu. If the terrain was more spacious, there would be more space, and there would be more options for dodging. But right now, there was only so much space in the Arena. There was nothing to block. The only reliable way to dodge was through the character's own movements. Moreover, the movements were limited. The Arena was only so big!
As a result, after dodging twice, Ye Xiu was forced to the point where he couldn't dodge.
Thus, he counterattacked!
Cold light flashed. Occasionally, there would be the sound of weapons clashing. Dark Thunder's weapon was also the Brawler's most commonly used weapon, the "Claw". It was also a sharp blade. Amidst the cold light, flowers of blood could be seen. Soon, the two characters attacked and defended quickly. This was a direct confrontation of hand speed and reaction speed. Everyone could only see the two characters' movements. They couldn't tell who had the advantage and who had the disadvantage. They had to look at their characters' health. Only by looking at their health could they tell who was winning.
Ye Xiu. The one with the advantage was still Ye Xiu.
In a direct confrontation, Lin Jingyan's Brawler wasn't a match for Ye Xiu's unspecialized. There seemed to be no suspense in this point.
However, Lin Jingyan didn't back down. He insisted on using this method to decide the victor.
Applause!
The crowd applauded.
Brawlers were a class that could be used both at close range and at long range. They had crowd control and burst damage. They were a very flexible class. Fang Rui was Lin Jingyan's most important and reliable partner. Cooperating with him, Lin Jingyan had adjusted his playstyle. At that time, he was already in the second half of his career. And before this, Lin Jingyan was also a fierce character who fought head-on.
Demon Subduer!
Just from the name Brawler he used in the past, he didn't seem like someone who would cower and use dirty tricks.
At that time, Lin Jingyan had chased after the footsteps of geniuses. Lin Jingyan didn't want to show any cowardice or cowardice. Even if he lost, he wanted to stand up straight and charge forward. If he stood up straight, he would fall down.
Now that he thought about it, the number of times he had fallen was quite high.
But he had never retreated!
Even if he adjusted his playstyle later on and wasn't as strong as before, he definitely wasn't running away. He also had ambition. For the championship he dreamed of, he could give up everything. He could also fight as wildly as Demon Subduer in the beginning!
Tiger Flips the Mountain!
Double Crescent Moon!
Pain of the Scar!
An incomparably bright flower of blood bloomed. Lord Grim quickly jumped away. Blood was still flowing out of his right shoulder.
"Oh, Demon Subduer … Long time no see," Ye Xiu said.
"Are you scared?" Lin Jingyan said as if he were Ye Xiu. Dark Thunder, go again!
The Demon Subduer here wasn't referring to the Brawler character Lin Jingyan used in Team Wind Howl. It was a three-part Brawler skill that Lin Jingyan used in the past. Because it happened to be a three-part skill, it matched the "three" in the name of his character, Demon Subduer. As a result, the team used it as a gimmick, linking his three-part skill with the name Demon Subduer.
However, as Glory developed and leveled up, the class's skills became more plentiful. Lin Jingyan's three-part skill gradually became outdated. Today, it was rarely used, and it wasn't a signature skill. This was Ye Xiu. If it were a younger player, they probably wouldn't have been able to tell that Dark Thunder's three-part skill was actually a skill.
"Haha, I've never been scared. You know that," Ye Xiu said. Lord Grim went forward again.
Lin Jingyan's sudden move was a bit abrupt. Ye Xiu wasn't prepared for it, which was why he fell for it. However, when it came to this technique, he had never been afraid of it when Lin Jingyan first used it. Not to mention, using it now seemed a bit out of date.
"Try it again!" Lin Jingyan was still yelling.
"You really dare to use it?" Ye Xiu didn't think so.
"Are you ready?" Lin Jingyan didn't plan on using it again. Clearly, he was also very clear that if this technique was suddenly used as a surprise weapon, it might still be of some use. If he were to use it as a secret weapon, that would be a joke. Things that were discarded were useless because they had no value. However, he didn't mind using it as a bluff.
"I'm ready. If you dare to use it, I'll beat you to death!" Ye Xiu said. He wasn't bluffing. He was just trying to scare him, and it was a very real threat. In this day and age, if Lin Jingyan used that skill again, it could be said to be an opening. If there was an opening, beating him to death was the right and duty of a match.
As a result, Lin Jingyan didn't use it again. The two continued to fight fiercely. The applause continued. Lin Jingyan's fighting style might be a bit unwise. The current him could definitely play smarter. That way, he might be able to continue fighting with Ye Xiu.
However, this was Tyranny's home stadium. The ones supporting him were Tyranny's fans. Lin Jingyan's fighting style wasn't smart, but it was what they liked. Perhaps some people would say that cleverness could win a match, but sorry, Tyranny's fans liked to use brute force to win a match. This was what they were looking forward to. At the same time, they hoped that the team could prove it.
Perhaps Team Tyranny was changing now, and this was something they couldn't control. However, they liked Lin Jingyan's fighting style from the bottom of their hearts. That was why they liked Tyranny.
"Go for it!"
"Beat Ye Xiu!!"
Lin Jingyan didn't have the advantage, but Tyranny's fans didn't care. Their tone and aura made it seem like Lin Jingyan was beating Ye Xiu to death.
Huang Shaotian, who had followed the match all the way to Tyranny's stadium, messaged Yu Wenzhou. "Did you see Tyranny's intention?"
"It's to wear him down," Yu Wenzhou replied.
Wear him down. Huang Shaotian was no stranger to it. In fact, it was a somewhat painful word.
In the match with Happy, this was also their strategy: wear down Ye Xiu in the group arena. But in the end, they were worn down by Ye Xiu instead.
And now, Team Tyranny had the exact same strategy: wear down Ye Xiu.
It was just that their methods were different. They chose the most concise map and used the most concise method, Tyranny's method of wearing down Ye Xiu.
Wear him down in a direct confrontation.
