Cloud Wind Body was a powerful perception-type skill. It allowed the user to sense the target with qi and control it more precisely. At this moment, Hai Wuliang's movement speed suddenly increased. This clearly wasn't the effect of Cloud Wind Body, but another Qi Master skill: Qi Drifting Cloud.
Qi Drifting Cloud increased the Qi Master's movement speed in all areas, including movement, attack, channeling, and so on. Fang Rui had Hai Wuliang stack Cloud Wind Body and Qi Drifting Cloud. Hai Wuliang's movement speed suddenly increased, and he also had more precise control over his footwork. This step brushed past Chaotic Cloudy Mountain's fingertips. It was extremely dangerous. However, Chaotic Cloudy Mountain was instantly left behind.
Lu Boyuan cursed in his heart. Chaotic Cloudy Mountain hurriedly turned around. He was already two body lengths away from Hai Wuliang.
Two body lengths … …
This awkward distance made Lu Boyuan's chest tighten. In Glory, there were 24 classes. Not counting the two healers and the fact that long-ranged classes were at a disadvantage in close combat, any class could pose a threat from two body lengths away. This included Strikers and Brawlers. They all had skills that could pose a threat from two body lengths away. Only Grapplers were an exception.
And right now, Hai Wuliang was two body lengths away from him, moving faster than him. This was, without a doubt, intentionally controlled by Fang Rui. He was relying on this extreme maneuver to achieve maximum efficiency. From start to finish, he never considered Lu Boyuan and Chaotic Cloudy Mountain to be his opponents. He only considered them obstacles. Everything he did was to use the most efficient method possible to avoid these obstacles and then rush towards his target: Laughing Song.
In terms of overall time, this was almost the same as sprinting in a straight line. Fang Minghua didn't expect Lu Boyuan, who was covering him, to be so easily dodged. Just like that, Hai Wuliang rushed behind him as if he hadn't been obstructed at all.
Fang Minghua wanted to do something, but it was too late. Hai Wuliang lifted his hand and tore him up. Fling!
Laughing Song was thrown in the opposite direction from where he was moving. Lu Boyuan's Chaotic Cloudy Mountain finally managed to catch up, but Hai Wuliang rolled out of the way and dodged Chaotic Cloudy Mountain's arm. He arched his back and rushed towards Laughing Song.
Cloud Grasping Fist!
Lu Boyuan knew that in terms of movement speed, there was a gap between his Chaotic Cloudy Mountain and Hai Wuliang. If he kept falling behind, he would keep falling behind. He decided to use the Grappler skill he had chosen for his weapon today in an attempt to pull Hai Wuliang back.
Who would have thought that Fang Rui would be so cunning? Even though he was clearly rushing towards Laughing Song, he suddenly rolled midway. During this process, his character's camera naturally turned back for an instant. In that instant, Lu Boyuan saw something moving through the air.
Qi Blade!
Lu Boyuan was filled with regret. He should have activated Reinforced Iron Bones to obtain Super Armor before using Cloud Grasping Fist. It was just that he hadn't thought about it so carefully in that instant and was caught off guard by Fang Rui.
If the Qi Blade came, Cloud Grasping Fist would definitely be interrupted. Lu Boyuan had no choice but to cancel the skill himself. Chaotic Cloudy Mountain dodged the Qi Blade and had no other choice but to chase after him.
Hai Wuliang arrived next to Laughing Song in just a few steps, just in time for him to roll and get up. Fang Minghua wasn't a small character. He hadn't expected Fang Rui to break through Lu Boyuan's defense so quickly, so he wasn't able to react in time. This time, he was prepared. When Laughing Song got up, the cross in his hand lit up with a white light and then spread out in a circle.
Angel's Might was a 360 degree halo that forced the target back, ignored Super Armor, and was a Paladin skill. It was the skill Fang Minghua had chosen for his Silver weapon, Angel's Might.
Now that the skill had been released, there was no way to dodge or resist it. The shield's protection could negate the effects of many skills, but Angel's Might's forced knockback was one of the exceptions.
Hai Wuliang was a Qi Master, so he didn't have any tricks up his sleeve. Moreover, the two sides were so close, so it was difficult for everyone to even react. However, right before Angel's Might touched Hai Wuliang, he quickly sent out a palm.
Cloud Pushing Palm!
It was a low-level skill that didn't deal much damage, but it could hit objects from a distance and had a knockback effect. However, the knockback effect was inversely proportional to the distance of the attack. Directly hitting the target at close range was undoubtedly the most effective.
At this moment, Hai Wuliang's Angel's Might had already reached him and pushed him back. No one had been able to clearly see whether or not the Cloud Pushing Palm had hit Laughing Song, but it was certain that the skill had succeeded. As Angel's Might spread out, Laughing Song's body couldn't help but be pushed back. He had clearly been pushed back by the Cloud Pushing Palm.
Angel's Might's knockback effect was far more tyrannical than Cloud Pushing Palm, but the problem was that Laughing Song's Angel's Might was only level one. Right now, what was more troublesome for Fang Rui was Chaotic Cloudy Mountain, who had been pushed back by Angel's Might. If Chaotic Cloudy Mountain caught him, even if it was just for a moment, then his obstruction of Samsara's two players would come to an end.
Everyone was incomparably clear on this point, let alone the players on stage.
After Angel's Might spread out, Lu Boyuan immediately prepared himself. He stared at Hai Wuliang's figure. He saw that this guy's body was still sinking down as he retreated. Was he going to assume that dirty stance and start moving as soon as possible?
Chaotic Cloudy Mountain rushed forward and lowered his body, but this time, Boundless Sea kept pressing down. It looked like his hands were about to reach the ground. Was he … going to run like an animal on all fours?
Just as this absurd thought flashed through Lu Boyuan's mind, Hai Wuliang's hands really did reach the ground. But Hai Wuliang was already behind him. Angel's Might's knockback effect hadn't ended yet. If he wanted to run, wouldn't it be too late?
Fling!
Lu Boyuan didn't use any high-level skills. He just wanted to use this simple low-level grab skill to throw Hai Wuliang far away from Laughing Song. This situation could be considered resolved. Even though Chaotic Cloudy Mountain's hands were still reaching down, he was getting farther and farther away from Hai Wuliang.
Hai Wuliang's body was still sinking, but this wasn't enough to open up such a large distance. Lu Boyuan had already considered pushing down. Now that he was pulling away, it wasn't just because Hai Wuliang was still sinking, but also because Chaotic Cloudy Mountain was rising up …
Chaotic Cloudy Mountain was in the air.
Hai Wuliang's hands were on the ground. He wasn't trying to move like an animal. He was using the Qi Master skill: Landmine Quake!
It was an offensive skill, but Fang Rui's control was so perfect that people forgot that it was an offensive skill. Even the thought of moving like an animal appeared in their minds. In the end, under the close attention of his opponent, he completed a sneak attack.
The audience didn't know what to feel.
They also didn't realize that this was a Landmine Quake, so they angrily cursed Fang Rui for being despicable. But for some reason, they realized that this was a Landmine Quake, so they looked down on Lu Boyuan's stupidity.
But no matter what, Lu Boyuan had been tricked. Chaotic Cloudy Mountain had been knocked into the air. This was the most crucial moment. Hai Wuliang, who was still crouching, rolled. Using the momentum of Angel's Might, he quickly passed under Chaotic Cloudy Mountain.
When he got up again, Angel's Might's knockback effect had reached its limit. Hai Wuliang pushed out with both hands and sent a Sky Piercing Strike towards Chaotic Cloudy Mountain.
Lu Boyuan's Chaotic Cloudy Mountain wasn't able to throw Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang away. Instead, Chaotic Cloudy Mountain was sent flying by Hai Wuliang's Sky Piercing Strike.
Brilliant!
Fang Rui's performance was too brilliant, but this was Samsara's home stadium. Such a brilliant performance could only garner a small amount of applause. More of the audience members were worried. If they were stalled here, it would have a huge impact on the battle in the trash room.
Even the broadcast gave up on the 2v2 between the champions and Best Partners in the trash room. Sun Xiang's One Leaf Of Autumn versus An Wenyi's Little Cold Hands wasn't paid too much attention to because Little Cold Hands had already found helpers: Qiao Yifan and his One Inch Ash. Happy was also trying to link the battle into a 4v3. As a result, Fang Rui's 1v2 against Lu Boyuan and Fang Minghua really was the match point.
This … was another Superstar strategy?
Before, Ye Xiu's 1v3 had established the situation. Now, it was Fang Rui's 1v2 that maintained the advantage.
1v2 and 1v3. At first glance, it sounded like the difficulty had decreased, but in reality, the two situations were completely different.
Ye Xiu's 1v3 wasn't fake, but he didn't need to control the situation. All he needed to do was survive the encirclement of the three players. The absolute disadvantage of a 1v3 was enough to attract the attention of his opponents.
On the other hand, Fang Rui's 1v2 required him to take the initiative. He needed to completely stick to Fang Minghua and his Laughing Song, preventing them from leaving. He had one less opponent, but what he needed to do wasn't any easier than Ye Xiu's 1v3. When many people saw this situation, they weren't thinking about whether or not Fang Rui could keep Fang Minghua here, but how long he could keep Fang Minghua here.
The pro players were even betting on this. From ten seconds to one minute, people kept voicing their guesses. Then, people kept having their guesses shattered.
Ten seconds, fifteen seconds, twenty seconds, twenty-five seconds, thirty seconds …
Guesses after guesses were shattered. At first, the pro players were betting to make it more interesting, but after thirty seconds, the fun of betting started to fade away.
They were completely captivated by Fang Rui's performance.
Lu Boyuan wasn't a weakling, and neither was Fang Minghua. The two of them had plenty of experience, and they had been on the same team for many years, so they had quite the tacit understanding. But now, they had no way of breaking away from Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang. They couldn't even cover for one of them to leave.
This …
The pro players were used to putting themselves in Fang Rui's shoes, so they had no choice but to give up on playing around and focus on Fang Rui's current performance.
