Chapter 1262: A Showdown Between The Strongest
“Argh!!”
When Thunderlord Block was struck by yet another arrow, he let out a war snarl in an attempt to frighten Yang Nuo.
On the other hand, Yang Nuo fired a [Convulsion Arrow] towards Thunderlord Block’s head.
One of them was in a state of stun while the other one was in a state of fear. All of a sudden, both parties stopped attacking.
Seconds later, the effects wore off and Yang Nuo was once again stuck to Thunderlord Block’s back.
Just like what w.a.n.g Yu said, a shadow following the body.
All the spectators straightened their necks as they watched on, feeling stupefied.
An Archer can go this close to fight a Guardian? Could it be that we’ve been playing the Archer job the wrong way all these while?
This was the perfect example of Yang Nuo’s brilliance. A Guardian was bound to have an advantage over all agile jobs. Yang Nuo knew this so she knew that she wouldn’t be a match with Thunderlord Block if she faced him upfront.
Everyone mentioned how incapable an Archer was in close-combat, any jobs being followed at the back like a shadow by an Archer would be equally as useless. Moreover, Thunderlord Block was a clumsy Guardian.
Just like that, Yang Nuo was so tight behind Thunderlord Block. No matter how he tossed around, s.h.i.+fted from side to side or rolled around, Yang Nuo was capable of coming up with a way to get behind Thunderlord Block.
And it was only a matter of time before Yang Nuo managed to clear Thunderlord Block’s health bar one arrow at a time.
Thunderlord Block was knocked off the stage embarra.s.sed. Not even in his wildest dreams would he imagine being knocked out by an Archer in this manner.
In fact, he didn’t even manage to land a single strike on his opponent and reduce her health… After so many years of competing, he had never experienced anything like that.
Just like that, Nine Solitary Spears grew anxious because Thunderlord Block was one of his very best in the squad. He certainly did not expect him to lose to a lady, let alone suffer such a devastating defeat…
The worst was the fact that the fear of w.a.n.g Yu was not over yet…
Looking at how worried Nine Solitary Spears looked, Tranquility Yields Transcendence responded helplessly, “Forget it, let me go up for the next round.”
“This…” Nine Solitary Spears was still slightly hesitant.
Experts had pride of their own especially Tranquility Yields Transcendence who was known to be the G.o.d of War. Nine Solitary Spears was naturally not going to mention how he was afraid that Tranquility Yields Transcendence couldn’t defeat w.a.n.g Yu. However, if even Thunderlord Block lost, Nine Solitary Spears really had no other excuse to not send him up.
Tranquility Yields Transcendence was also not a fool so he naturally understood Nine Solitary Spears’s intention. However, Tranquility Yields Transcendence was not angry at him as he said, “The fact that Old Thunder lost means that the opponents on the other side are pretty decent. If I don’t go next, others might not be able to clinch that win for us.”
“Oh…” Nine Solitary Spears pondered for a while before nodding eventually, “Alright then.”
He had no other choice since Tranquility Yields Transcendence had already volunteered himself twice. As the top expert of Heavenly Dragon Squad, rejecting him once more was equivalent to slapping him in the face.
If Nine Solitary Spears really offended him, it wasn’t a responsibility Nine Solitary Spears could handle.
Moreover, Team A Murder Of Crows still required w.a.n.g Yu to intimidate their opponents so w.a.n.g Yu might not even be up for the third match.
Of course, Fearless was exceedingly familiar with Nine Solitary Spears after fighting him for so many years.
There was no way this fella’s thought process or little tricks could escape the clutches of Fearless.
After Yang Nuo returned to the squad, Fearless commented, “After trying out for two consecutive matches, Tranquility Yields Transcendence will definitely not want to sit back anymore after watching the way Thunderlord Block lose.”
“So will Spear Dog let Tranquility Yields Transcendence up?” everyone asked.
Fearless smiled, “Definitely!”
“Why?” Everyone couldn’t understand the logic behind Fearless’ confidence, “Isn’t he afraid of Old Bull?”
“There is no reason why. It is merely because he is Spear G.o.d who will never dare to offend Tranquility Yields Transcendence. Old Bull, you will fight the third match.”
…
Both parties chose their players and the white light flashed. w.a.n.g Yu and Tranquility Yields Transcendence were both sent onto the stage.
The Quan Zhen Sect players gave Fearless a big thumbs up immediately after they saw that it was indeed Tranquility Yields Transcendence who was up on the stage. “Old Dog Fearless is indeed impressive! What an accurate guess!”
Fearless replied coldly, “Tsk! It is not a guess, it is calculated! You bunch of uncultured animals better take note of your wording.”
On the other side, Nine Solitary Spears was not as optimistic as the Quan Zhen Sect. When he saw that w.a.n.g Yu was on the stage, his face turned gloomy as his worst fear came true.
The most excited people were, of course, the spectators.
Tranquility Yields Transcendence was a legend of this generation and the worthy uncrowned king in the gaming world.
In every game, the ‘G.o.d of War’ became the industry benchmark, not just a t.i.tle alone.
w.a.n.g Yu was also a rising star and was known to be the strongest newbie in the gaming world. A great half of the iconic records in <> were related to this fella. With a glorious accomplishment, he was undoubtedly not any weaker than any professional player.
This was especially since the start of the professional tournament where w.a.n.g Yu had yet to suffer a defeat. Even though he did not appear many times, he managed to finish off his opponent cleanly and directly every time he went on stage. He basically fought every opponent he had to face with extreme ease.
One must know that any player capable of partic.i.p.ating in the professional expert had to be a top expert in his region. However, these players who were so easily defeated by w.a.n.g Yu was evidence to just how much stronger w.a.n.g Yu actually was.
Today, the fight between these two players could be rated to be the fight between the kings of two generations.
Facing a newbie like w.a.n.g Yu, Tranquility Yields Transcendence was naturally unwilling to admit to his advancing age.
On the stage, Tranquility Yields Transcendence chuckled when he saw w.a.n.g Yu, “I’ve seen your fights and I have to admit that your fighting style is very interesting with so many patterns. However, a game is still a game so the understanding of the jobs will always be the most important factor and not your fanciful and nonsensical style.”
“Fanciful and nonsensical style?”
w.a.n.g Yu couldn’t help but furrow his brows when he heard Tranquility Yields Transcendence’s comments on his Kung Fu.
Is he trying to say that his Kung Fu is fancy but impractical? w.a.n.g Yu had fought countless of people but this was the first time someone dared to say something like that in front of him.
The legendary ‘G.o.d of War’ really does have guts.
w.a.n.g Yu had devoted his entire life to his Kung Fu and the most important thing in his life besides Mu Zixian was his Kung Fu. Now that someone criticized it in this manner, w.a.n.g Yu was naturally not pleased.
As a grandmaster of his generation, w.a.n.g Yu was naturally not going to allow his opponents’ trash talk to affect his state of mind to fight. Therefore, w.a.n.g Yu did not say anything but hooked his finger towards Tranquility Yields Transcendence.
The intention was clear. Since you’re not convinced of my abilities, try me and I’ll convince you.
“!! Arrogant fella!!”
Tranquility Yields Transcendence frowned as he grunted coldly. With a swing of his sword, a crescent sword radiance flew towards w.a.n.g Yu.
“[Grudging Slash]!!”
