Seeing Violet Cloud's confident smile, yet not saying anything, Zhao Yueru grew extremely anxious. However, there was nothing she could do. She could only stare at the dueling arena. ¥f, ¥f.
Only Gentle Snow remained calm. On the contrary, she quietly observed Violet Cloud.
Previously, due to the matter with Nimble Snake, Gentle Snow had only briefly glanced at Violet Cloud. She had not paid much attention to her.
Now that she took a closer look, she discovered that although Violet Cloud appeared lively and harmless, she exuded an indescribable pressure. This pressure was completely different from War Wolf's.
War Wolf's aura was closer to that of a sleeping, hungry wolf. He exuded callousness, brutality, and sharpness.
As for Violet Cloud, Gentle Snow did not know how to describe it. This was the first time she had encountered such a feeling.
Violet Cloud's aura was like the starry sky at night: silent, vast, and deep.
"Just who is this little girl that Ye Feng invited?" Gentle Snow was very confident in her sharp sixth sense. She had never made a mistake before. After playing God's Domain, her sixth sense had become even sharper.
Violet Cloud naturally noticed Gentle Snow's constant attention. She simply nodded at Gentle Snow, a playful smile appearing on her face.
Inside the arena, Shifeng and Soaring Snake stared at each other, observing each other.
Both were Swordsman classes. The only difference between them was their levels. Shifeng was only Level 22, while Soaring Snake was Level 24. There was a two-level gap between them. In addition, Soaring Snake had grasped the combat technique Omnivision. His perception far surpassed ordinary people. No matter how one looked at it, Soaring Snake had a one-sided advantage.
However, even after the battle signal sounded, Soaring Snake remained motionless. He was like an old monk in meditation. He did not take the initiative to charge at Xiang Shifeng.
"Soaring Snake, what are you doing?"
"Why aren't you moving?"
Cao Chenghua and the others found Soaring Snake's actions strange. Normally, Soaring Snake was a battle maniac. He would go berserk as soon as the battle started.
Today, however, was strange.
"Soaring Snake is indeed very talented," War Wolf smiled faintly as he looked at the motionless Soaring Snake.
"Big Brother Wolf, what do you mean by this?" Nimble Snake asked, confused.
"Combat does not depend on one's physical condition. It also depends on one's mental state. Maintaining an appropriate amount of calmness and excitement is the best state for a battle. Soaring Snake is doing this to adjust his state of mind, "War Wolf slowly explained.
While War Wolf was commentating, Soaring Snake, who stood in the arena, was no longer as excited as before. There was a hint of clarity in his eyes. It was obvious that he had made the best preparations for battle.
Immediately, Teng She pulled out both swords and stomped on the ground, charging straight at Xiang Shifeng.
As Ouroboros's First Apostle, Soaring Snake's equipment was naturally top-notch. Of the two longswords, one was Dark-Gold rank, while the other was Fine-Gold rank. Meanwhile, the majority of the equipment on Shi Feng's body was Fine-Gold rank. They were definitely top-tier equipment in God's Domain right now.
In the blink of an eye, he closed the distance of 20 yards and launched a flurry of attacks.
He had no intention of playing slowly with the Shifeng.
However, facing Soaring Snake's rapid attacks, Shifeng leisurely unsheathed the Abyssal Blade and Purgatory's Shadow. He then leaned forward and lightly swung his swords. He was ready to fight.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the entire arena changed. Almost everyone shuddered as their hair stood on end.
"This … What's going on?"
Gentle Snow clearly sensed this change. This feeling came from Shifeng inside the arena.
"Just who is this Ye Feng? Why do I shudder just from looking at his stance?! "Cao Chenghua stared at Shifeng in shock.
Just by looking at Shi Feng's stance, everyone in the arena was intimidated, their hearts beating wildly. The arena fell deathly silent. It was as if the arena had been devoured by Shi Feng's presence.
Meanwhile, facing Shifeng's intimidation, Soaring Snake was like a startled bird as he abruptly stopped in his tracks.
As for why Soaring Snake had stopped … Even Soaring Snake himself did not know.
After reacting to the situation, Soaring Snake immediately charged at Shifeng again.
"Your courage is commendable." Shifeng nodded, smiling faintly as he watched Soaring Snake's actions.
Although Shifeng's voice was soft, Soaring Snake's senses were sharp. However, Soaring Snake, who possessed sharp senses, heard the words clearly. Immediately, he grew enraged and utilized Wind Blade. His speed soared once more as he slashed out with his sword.
However, after Soaring Snake entered his attack range, Shifeng executed an even faster slash.
This slash was as fast as lightning. It disappeared in a flash.
The Abyssal Blade descended on Soaring Snake's neck. However, a strange scene occurred. The slash that should have struck Soaring Snake missed. Soaring Snake's upper body had completely disappeared from Shifeng's sight.
If one took a closer look, they would discover that Soaring Snake had leaned back, dodging Shifeng's fatal attack.
"What a pity." Soaring Snake revealed a sinister smile.
Before Soaring Snake could finish his sentence, the two swords in his hands had already pierced towards Shifeng's abdomen. The attack's angle was extremely tricky, making it impossible for Shi Feng to dodge.
In the end, Shifeng had no choice but to activate Defensive Blade, blocking the two attacks and pulling away from Soaring Snake.
"What's going on here? How could the Soaring Serpent dodge such a fast sword strike? " Zhao Yueru considered herself an expert. She also possessed excellent dynamic vision. In her opinion, Shifeng's attack had been perfect. It had been so fast that it should have been impossible to dodge. Yet, not only had Soaring Snake missed, but Shifeng had also been struck twice. It was simply too strange.
Inside the arena, Shifeng looked at the spot where he had been struck. He then looked at Soaring Snake, revealing a smug smile. Unhurriedly, he said, "I never thought that you would have hidden your strength so deeply. You actually have such fast reaction speed."
"I am the strongest among the Twelve Apostles. I am also a Swordsman. How can my reaction speed be slow?" Soaring Snake laughed. "However, what surprised me the most is you. You are not simple, either. You actually activated Defensive Blade immediately. Your reaction speed is not slow, either."
"No, that's not what I meant." Shifeng shook his head. "To be more precise, your reaction speed is simply too fast. That's why you were able to dodge my attack, right?"
"Huh? You discovered it so quickly?" Soaring Snake was slightly surprised. Smiling nonchalantly, he said, "But so what if you discovered it? Do you think you can counter it? "
"Snow, what are you two talking about?"
Many people in the spectator stands overheard the conversation between the two. Zhao Yueru was utterly confused by the conversation. She turned to Gentle Snow, who wore an enlightened expression, and asked curiously.
"You saw Shifeng's attack just now. It was perfect. Yet, Soaring Snake managed to dodge it. Do you know why?" Gentle Snow asked solemnly.
"Isn't it because Soaring Snake sensed Shifeng's attack and dodged it?" Zhao Yueru could not understand what Gentle Snow was saying.
"You could say that."
"However, noticing it is one thing, dodging it is another. With the Swordsman's attack speed and the distance between them, even a top-tier Assassin wouldn't be able to dodge that attack, yet Soaring Snake has done so."
"The reason for this is Soaring Snake's reaction speed. When an ordinary person acts, their brain has three processes: recognition, understanding, and correspondence. The time required for these three processes is roughly 0.3 seconds for an ordinary person. Even a top-tier sprinter who has undergone arduous training would only be able to complete it in around 0.15 seconds.
"This kind of nerve signal transmission speed, no matter how much an ordinary person trains, won't be lower than 0.1 seconds. Of course, this is common sense. However, based on Soaring Snake's previous reaction speed, it's around 0.07 seconds or even 0.06 seconds, which is much faster than an ordinary person. In other words, if an ordinary person can perform three or four actions in one second, Soaring Snake can perform more than ten actions."
"Because of this, not only did Soaring Snake dodge Ye Feng's attack, but he also managed to stab at Ye Feng twice.
"This is no longer a problem that can be solved through technique or hard work. It is a matter of talent …"
