"What a precise attack."
Shifeng observed the wind blades' trajectories as he defended himself. The more he observed, the more he realized how powerful Rhinebeck was.
He had gone to great lengths to execute Sword's Orbit to block the attacks that exceeded his Strength and quantity. However, after Rhinebeck's attacks, both the Strength and quantity of the wind blades had exceeded his limits. As a result, he had no choice but to retreat.
So, this is the third floor's trial. I really wonder how Silent Entropy obtained the Sea God's Legacy in the past.
Shifeng glanced outside the magic array. At most, he would be out of the magic array after retreating another ten or so steps. However, the wind blades did not weaken in the slightest because of his retreat …
In the past, when Silent Entropy had obtained the Sea God's Legacy, he had only reached the Flowing Water Realm. In terms of combat techniques, he had been far weaker than Shi Feng. Yet, Silent Entropy had succeeded. Now, however, Shi Feng was about to be thrown out of the magic array.
Could it be that the so-called 'reason' has nothing to do with one's combat standards? Shifeng wondered.
Seeing that the wind blades were about to blast him out of the magic array, Shifeng had no choice but to use Void Steps, vanishing from Rhinebeck's sight.
"Interesting footwork." Rhinebeck's lips curled up. He then shifted his gaze to Shifeng, who had appeared on the other side of the magic array. Chuckling, he said, "However, how long can you last?"
After saying so, he sent another 15 wind blades at Shi Feng. In response, Shifeng used Void Steps to evade the attacks once more.
As expected of someone who has grasped a Domain. The effects of Void Steps are too limited. Shifeng continuously dodged the incoming wind blades. However, he could not take a single step toward Rhinebeck from the magic array's edge. He could only move around the magic array's edge.
Void Steps could use a special footwork to make people ignore their presence, making it seem as if they had disappeared. Although this footwork had some effect on Rhinebeck, it only made Rhinebeck's Wind Blade misjudge for a short period of time. It couldn't seal his movements very well.
Meanwhile, Silent Entropy and Hundred Leaves had also arrived on the third floor.
"This …"
As soon as the two entered the third floor, they were stupefied by the scene before them.
Unlike the first and second floors of the Tower of Falling Stars, the third floor was the same place.
At this moment, they could only see the Shifeng inside the magic array flickering in and out of existence, dodging the countless wind blades. When they took a closer look at their opponents, they discovered that they were actually Tier 4 NPCs. Their expressions turned indescribably grim.
"The third floor's test requires me to deal with the Tier 4 NPC before me?" Hundred Leaves glared at Rhinebeck, who stood proudly in front of her. Inwardly, she said angrily, "How is this possible?"
"No, that's not right. I don't think he defeated that Tier 4 NPC. Otherwise, that brat would've died long ago," Silent Entropy said, shaking his head.
Even in the Sea's End's twelve major cities, Tier 4 NPCs were top-ranked existences. Not to mention, Rhinebeck was the vice commander of the Sea God's Temple's Knight Division.
"It seems we won't make it this time. With so many wind blades, magical class players like us can't dodge them at all. Moreover, we can't even cast our Spells or use tools here. It's even more impossible for us to clear the trial," Hundred Leaves said, glancing at the struggling Shifeng. "Fortunately, although we can't get it, he can't get it, either."
After Hundred Leaves said so, Silent Entropy walked towards the magic array.
The instant Silent Entropy stepped into the magic array, Rhinebeck turned to look at the Berserker.
"Another one who isn't afraid of death?" Rhinebeck chuckled as he looked at Silent Entropy. "Are you sure you want to accept the challenge?"
Silent Entropy glanced at the Shifeng before nodding seriously.
"Very good. You are still very weak, so I won't use my full strength against you. So long as you can reach me, you pass," Rhinebeck explained.
As soon as Silent Entropy finished speaking, two wind blades flew at him, giving him no time to prepare. Unlike the wind blades that had attacked Shi Feng, these two wind blades were much slower. In the next moment, Silent Entropy, who wore white robes, double-cast and fired two Frost Arrows to block the wind blades.
Boom!
After the two collisions, the wind blades shattered the Frost Arrows and continued towards Silent Entropy. Surprisingly, Silent Entropy dodged the wind blades' attack trajectories and took two steps towards Rhinebeck.
That old fox! Realization dawned on Hundred Leaves when she saw this.
As the first person to obtain a Legacy in the Sea Dragon Secret Land, Silent Entropy definitely knew more secrets than she did.
Meanwhile, it was obvious that the trial before her wasn't the same. Instead, it was different.
For magical class players like herself, this trial gave her a considerable advantage.
Shifeng had to face 15 wind blades, while magical class players like herself only had to face two. Moreover, Silent Entropy could still use Spells after entering the magic array. Blocking two wind blades was child's play for him.
Seeing Silent Entropy slowly approach Rhinebeck after blocking the wind blades, Hundred Leaves followed him into the magic array and began her trial. However, unlike Silent Entropy, Hundred Leaves wasn't the same.
Although she also faced two wind blades and blocked them with Spells, she couldn't advance. She could only dodge the wind blades' aftershocks.
"What's going on?" Hundred Leaves was confused as she looked at Silent Entropy, who had already taken over a dozen steps forward. "Are the wind blades I'm facing stronger?"
She had also double-cast, and she had blocked the incoming wind blades. However, the weakened wind blades still prevented her from advancing. She could only dodge left and right. If she advanced recklessly, she would definitely get hit by both wind blades simultaneously. Yet, Silent Entropy remained unharmed.
Glancing at the Shifeng and Hundred Leaves, Silent Entropy smiled and said, "You youngsters are indeed powerful. Unfortunately, you've experienced too little. I'll be taking this Legacy."
After saying so, Silent Entropy was only half the distance between him and Rhinebeck.
"Not bad. It seems that you've already reached the entry level as an adventurer. But what about this?"
Rhinebeck laughed as he waved his hand again. The two wind blades attacking Silent Entropy split into three. Moreover, the wind blades were slightly faster than before.
"Damn it! He's actually stronger again! "
Silent Entropy's expression darkened. Hurriedly, he used two Frost Arrows to block the two wind blades. However, against the third wind blade, he could only dodge left and right, unable to advance.
Hundred Leaves could not help but smile at this scene. Originally, she had worried that Silent Entropy would take the Legacy.
"It seems that neither of us will get the Legacy this time. Since that's the case, I won't waste any more time here." Hundred Leaves lost interest after seeing this outcome. She had no intention of wasting any more time.
However, just as Hundred Leaves was about to give up, Shifeng, who had been observing from the side, suddenly took action.
"So, that's how it is. It's no wonder why I couldn't pass," Shifeng said self-deprecatingly.
"Did you figure something out?" Hundred Leaves asked as she looked at Shifeng, who had suddenly laughed.
However, Shifeng did not answer her question. Instead, he took the initiative to meet the incoming wind blades and executed Sword's Orbit.
Dang … Dang … Dang …
A series of clangs rang out. This time, however, Shifeng did not retreat by even half a step. On the contrary, he took a large step forward.
"How is this possible?!" Hundred Leaves was flabbergasted. She could not understand what was happening.
"Impossible!" Silent Entropy was similarly shocked. "How did you grasp it so quickly?!"
"This is all thanks to you. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what would've happened." At this moment, Shifeng was overjoyed. He finally understood why Rhinebeck had said that he was mechanically copying the techniques. It was all because his thinking had been limited. Whether it was combat techniques or techniques, they were too clumsy. He had only learned the techniques, but he had not turned them into his own.
The reason Silent Entropy had been able to block the wind blades while still advancing was due to the fact that he had been using his Frost Arrows to block the wind blades. Unlike Hundred Leaves, who had used her Frost Arrows to block the wind blades before moving, Silent Entropy was naturally slower and unable to advance.
Now, Silent Entropy understood why Shifeng could block the wind blades with ease.
In the blink of an eye, Shifeng had crossed half the distance. Meanwhile, Rhinebeck increased the number of wind blades he had summoned. However, this time, only one wind blade had appeared.
However, this was no longer a problem for Shifeng, who had already reached the Void Realm. Relying on his attack deflection and subtle movements, Shi Feng bypassed the wind blades' obstruction.
When Silent Entropy saw Shifeng cross half the distance, he muttered in disbelief, "Is he a monster?"
