Above the stage, the countdown ticked by, second after second.
Everyone in the spectator stands couldn't help but become nervous. Almost all of their attention was focused on the arena.
This was definitely the first time a competition of this caliber had taken place in Stone Forest Town's Battle Arena!
Not even a major competition held every 15 days could compare to this one.
On one side, Shi Feng had defeated today's competition's champion in an instant. This was absolutely impossible in the 15-day competition. On the other side, although Evil Fire had yet to take part in the competition, based on the weapons and equipment he wore and the frightening aura he radiated, as well as the fact that Evil Fire and the others treated him as their leader, it was obvious that Evil Fire was stronger than Mighty Tiger and the others.
Nobody knew what the outcome of the battle would be, but one thing was for sure: if they did not pay close attention, they would miss the moment the two sides clashed.
When the countdown reached zero, Evil Fire unsheathed the Storm Warblade slung across his back and shouted. Blue arcs of electricity then appeared all over his body, and his aura skyrocketed. Now, he looked like a ferocious beast with incredible speed.
Berserk Skill, Thunderbeast's Frenzy!
Thunderbeast's Frenzy was a super-rare Berserk Skill that increased player's Strength, Attack Speed, Movement Speed, and maximum HP by 100% for 90 seconds.
"Let's begin, then!"
Evil Fire's gaze turned cold as killing intent enveloped Shifeng. For a moment, it felt as if Shifeng was the only person left in the world. Whether it was the spectators or the buildings around the stage, it was as if they didn't exist.
How can his killing intent be so strong? Shi Feng stared at Evil Fire in shock as the Swordsman approached him step by step. His mind was actually warning him of the danger of death, forcing him to focus all of his attention on Evil Fire.
With Shi Feng's current strength, he could even go up against a Grand Lord. Only Tier 4 Mythic monsters could pressure him, yet Evil Fire had only used a Berserk Skill, yet the mental pressure he felt from Evil Fire exceeded even that of a Tier 4 Mythic monster. This was simply unbelievable.
At this moment, let alone Shi Feng, even the audience members in the spectator stands found it difficult to breathe. They were indescribably surprised.
"So strong. He's simply too strong. Just his aura alone is so powerful. Zero Wing will likely be in danger." Many of the spectating experts eyed Evil Fire with fear.
Meanwhile, Evil Fire left behind an afterimage on the stage. He then used Charge, his speed skyrocketing. Like a gale, he charged at Shi Feng, so fast that no one could see him clearly.
When Evil Fire was less than ten yards away from Shifeng, he suddenly changed his footwork.
Just like Mighty Tiger, Evil Fire abruptly changed directions and circled around the Swordsman. Evil Fire's movement pattern was identical to Mighty Tiger's, but this time, Evil Fire was so fast that even expert players couldn't react in time.
Mighty Tiger, who sat in the VIP stands, could not help but laugh when he saw this scene. "Hahaha! Ye Feng will be dumbfounded this time. I'm not the only one who has mastered Ghost Steps. Evil Fire's Ghost Steps is far superior to mine. Even the commander will fall for it if he isn't careful."
At most, his Ghost Steps could only confuse his target. However, Evil Fire's Ghost Steps could make his target involuntarily pay attention to him, making him make all sorts of mistakes.
Even if his opponent's Attributes were significantly higher than his, it would be useless.
After all, Evil Fire's Strength would be useless if he couldn't hit his target. Not to mention, now that Evil Fire had used a Berserk Skill, his Strength and speed far surpassed Shifeng's. If Shifeng made the slightest mistake in his judgment, this battle would end immediately.
On the stage, Evil Fire appeared less than eight yards away from Shifeng. He then changed his footwork once more. However, instead of circling behind Shifeng, Evil Fire dashed toward Xiang Shifeng's side and swung the Storm Warblade at Shifeng. A streak of purple light streaked through the air, heading for Shifeng's neck.
Kill!
Just as the sword light was about to reach Shifeng, Shifeng's Sacred Sword appeared in the Storm Warblade's path.
So fast!
Evil Fire's heart skipped a beat when he saw Killing Ray. He hadn't even realized when Shi Feng had swung the Sacred Sword.
However, despite his shock, Evil Fire's movements didn't slow in the slightest. On the contrary, a sneer appeared on his face.
Although Shifeng had seen through his Ghost Steps and blocked his attack, which had exceeded his expectations, Shifeng had miscalculated by not using a Berserk Skill at the start of the match. Now that he had used a Berserk Skill, he had an overwhelming advantage in terms of Strength.
Even if Shi Feng blocked his attack, the resulting shockwave would cause his movements to go out of shape.
That way, he could continue his assault, forcing Shifeng to use a Lifesaving Skill. Once he exhausted Shifeng's Lifesaving Skill, he'd have a much easier time killing Shifeng.
Dang!
The instant the two Famed Swords collided, Evil Fire's expression changed.
How is this possible? Did he use a Berserk Skill as well? Evil Fire was surprised when he felt the impact on his hands.
Now that he had struck Killing Ray's blade, he felt as if he had struck Divine Steel. In any case, the force behind his attack had numbed his hand, and his HP bar had also fallen by over 100 points. In contrast, Shi Feng hadn't taken any damage at all.
Following which, Shifeng's Abyssal Blade dashed towards Evil Fire's side. Both attacks had been executed simultaneously.
"Scram!"
When Evil Fire noticed the approaching Abyssal Blade, he knew that he couldn't block the attack. Hence, he executed Whirlwind Slash, using the system's mandatory AOE Skill to block the attack.
Moreover, his Whirlwind Slash had already reached Tier 1, Level 10. He was only a step away from reaching Tier 2.
The Strength he could exhibit was 50% higher than his normal attacks.
This time, Shifeng had to take a step back. Meanwhile, Evil Fire quickly put some distance between himself and Evil Fire.
Forcibly using Whirlwind Slash would cause his movements to go out of shape. Although he could repel his enemy, he wouldn't be able to launch an attack. He'd have to readjust his body.
Following which, Evil Fire and Evil Fire put another 10 yards between them as they stared at each other.
Although both sides had only exchanged two blows, only an instant had passed. Before the audience could react, the distance between the two had increased by another 10 yards.
This caused the entire audience to fall into an indescribable silence …
"Impossible! Not only did that Ye Feng see through Evil Fire's Ghost Steps, but he also blocked Evil Fire's explosive attack? Just who is he? "Mighty Tiger's eyes nearly fell from their sockets.
Evil Fire had relied on his explosive attack to kill a superpower's peak expert, yet Shifeng had blocked his attack effortlessly. Moreover, Evil Fire had been forced to use Whirlwind Slash.
Meanwhile, Evil Fire's eyes glowed with excitement as he looked at Shifeng. It was as if he had just found a formidable opponent.
"Rumors really can't be trusted. I never thought that the Ling YI Society had hidden a great expert like you. Since you blocked my attack, you definitely rank among the top 100 on the God's Domain Experts List," Evil Fire praised. "However, I've already said that if you hold back, this battle will end quickly. This is my final warning. This is the first time I've used this move. I originally planned to use it against Hei Yan. Now, I'll let you have a taste of it."
After saying that, silver divine runes appeared on Evil Fire's hands and forehead. The divine runes added a sense of holiness to Evil Fire's appearance, and his aura became much stronger than before.
"A Divine Warrior?"
Shifeng was indescribably surprised when he saw the silver divine runes on Evil Fire's forehead.
In God's Domain, aside from the Ten Great Saint Legacies, there were 16 Peak Legacies. These 16 Peak Legacies ranked at the very top of all Peak Legacies.
The Divine Warrior was one of these 16 Peak Legacies.
Evil Fire executed Ghost Steps once more, splitting into multiple copies of himself before Shifeng. To the audience, Evil Fire left behind afterimages that lingered in his original position. Before anyone realized it, he had reappeared a short distance away from Shifeng. It was as if two Evil Fires had appeared simultaneously.
"Lose!"
