Although Cai Mao's attacks did not pose much of a threat, that was only to Yang Rui. With the layer of ice blocking him, it was difficult to see him. The snake-shaped spear could also be said to appear and disappear mysteriously.
Yang Rui relied on his sharp observation skills and the invincible defense ability of the Golden Emperor Armor. In fact, there were many times when Yang Rui stepped on the tip of Cai Mao's snake-shaped spear to dodge.
If this situation happened to someone who did not activate the invincible defense, he would probably be injured. Most importantly, Cai Mao was like a fish. After entering the water for about forty-five minutes, Cai Mao did not even take a breath.
Such a long time was naturally possible for an ordinary general, but that was under the condition that they held their breath and did not do anything else. However, Cai Mao was in a state of full attack.
From this point, it could be seen how powerful Cai Mao was as a general who specialized in water battles. At least, Yang Rui could not be compared to him.
Cai Mao's original purpose was not only to get Yang Rui into the water, but he also had the intention to get into the water and fight with him. If he really succeeded, Yang Rui would not be Cai Mao's opponent in an underwater battle. In the end, he might even be in real danger.
However, Cai Mao could only last for about forty-five minutes. The two of them, one above the ice and one below the ice, one attacking and one defending, had exchanged about fifty blows. Cai Mao had also reached the limit of holding his breath underwater to attack.
"Kacha! Bang … "
“.....”
A large hole was suddenly broken in the ice behind Yang Rui, and a wet figure suddenly jumped out.
Regardless of whether it was Yang Rui's troops on the icy sand city wall or Yuan Shao's allied troops on the icy surface of the Yellow River, they all focused their gazes on the figure that jumped out of the icy surface. When the figure suddenly shook off the water stains on his body, it was without a doubt Cai Mao who had disappeared for forty-five minutes.
Yang Rui immediately noticed Cai Mao's actions, but subconsciously thought that it was another attack from Cai Mao and dodged, giving his opponent some time to catch his breath.
"Clang!"
"Ping! Ping! Ping … "
"Whoosh! Clang! "
"…"
However, Yang Rui immediately adopted a full attack posture, suppressing Cai Mao with a series of fierce attacks.
Perhaps because Cai Mao had spent too much energy underwater, Yang Rui's fierce attacks had suppressed him to the point that he was a little out of breath. He was almost unable to fight back, and it seemed that it wouldn't be long before he was defeated.
"Clang!"
"Ping! Ping! Ping … "
"Whoosh! Clang! "
"…"
The rhythm of Yang Rui's attacks sped up further, and his moves became more powerful and heavy. He no longer had the superficial feeling he had when he was probing before. The situation was completely one-sided.
"Wow! Don't think that I, Cai Mao, don't think that I, Cai Mao, don't have any means to resist. Let's see if my defense is strong enough. "
Seeing that Cai Mao was forced into a situation where he was bound to lose, his collar flashed with a light. It was the light of activating the equipment's skill.
At this moment, Cao Cao and the other Yuan Shao allies finally understood what Cai Mao's trump card was. It turned out that he also had an absolute defense skill that was similar to Yang Rui's Emperor's Protection.
After the light flashed, Cai Mao seemed to have given up on defense and was fighting with all his strength against Yang Rui. Yang Rui's attacks landed on Cai Mao's body, but Cai Mao's body only flashed for a moment, and there were no other problems.
Under such circumstances, Cai Mao's situation of being suppressed changed, and in the blink of an eye, he was once again evenly matched with Yang Rui.
This made Yuan Shao's allies feel a lot more at ease. Everyone had some understanding of the Absolute Defense type skills. The duration of each skill should be the same for 6 hours. Under such circumstances, it seemed that Cai Mao's Absolute Defense, which was cast later, had a certain advantage.
Even Yuan Shao and the other commanders were relieved. They seemed to be very confident in Cai Mao's advantage, and at least Cai Mao would not be defeated.
Cao Cao was the only one who was still frowning as if he still had some concerns.
From everyone's reaction, it could be seen that their knowledge was deep, or at least their familiarity with absolute defense skills were different.
In fact, absolute defense skills had a threshold. This was something that Yang Rui had already realized and gradually deepened his understanding of during the battle with the Imagawa clan and Lu Bu.
On the battlefield, other than Yang Rui and a few other commanders, Cao Cao was the only one who had such knowledge.
Therefore, Cao Cao was still a little worried. In fact, Cao Cao always had a lot of good things in his hands, so he knew more about the skills of equipment. His understanding of them was similar to Yang Rui's.
However, Cao Cao had not verified his knowledge in actual combat, and only came to this conclusion through the occasional discovery when his subordinates fought.
Yang Rui, on the other hand, had verified the characteristics of absolute defense skills in actual combat, and had a deeper understanding of them.
"Keng!"
"Ping …"
"Keng! Keng! "
"… …"
Yang Rui and Cai Mao's fight was even more intense and ferocious than before. Moreover, the two of them didn't seem to pay much attention to defense. Instead, they focused on attacking. The sounds of weapons clashing were fewer, but the muffled sounds of attacks hitting Absolute Defense were more frequent.
"Mighty! Mighty! "
"Good!"
“.....”
This situation continued. The cheers of the allied forces of Yang Rui and Yuan Shao continued to rise and fall. Because they had maintained a stalemate, the mood of the troops on both sides gradually relaxed and became more and more appreciative of the fight between the two sides.
Most of the people had already guessed that this fight would most likely end in a draw. With the protection of absolute defense skills, both sides would only consume stamina and inner strength.
Yang Rui, on the other hand, was fighting very calmly. It seemed that he was also attacking freely, giving up most of his defense, and only focusing on attacking. However, in reality, Yang Rui was dodging or blocking Cai Mao's strongest attacks.
On the other hand, Cai Mao was more relaxed. He only cared about his own attacks, and almost did not pay attention to Yang Rui's attacks.
Even under such circumstances, Cai Mao was only able to fight evenly with Yang Rui. His true battle prowess was still unable to completely match Yang Rui's.
