117: Chapter 100: Xu Dela (Third Update) 117: Chapter 100: Xu Dela (Third Update) “Indeed, we are alike…” The blonde woman’s expression underwent a subtle change, the gentle smile usually gracing her face had vanished without a trace, replaced by an inorganic cold indifference. “…Only one who truly delights in battle can grow so quickly, can seize every little chance of victory. I can see it, the joy you derive from combat, ah, my desire for you grows ever stronger.” “Heh, likewise, likewise.” Lu Ping’an didn’t bother with any more trash talk, as he realized that for true “warriors,” emotion may surge during actual combat, but it hardly impacts their battle state and action plan.” So, there was no need to upset each other. “…If you are a warrior, you should perceive the gap between us, the probing has ended, are you still forcing yourself to continue?” The girl’s calm words stem from the self-recognition of an inevitable victory. But Lu Ping’an simply smiled, he too would not be disturbed by trash talk. Even though deep down, he acknowledges the truth of her words. From the moment his Thorns fruit was blocked, Lu Ping’an understood that physically, there was no competition, the current situation was worse than facing an angered Wang Hai. Compare skills? Challenge weapons master at combat skills? Lu Ping’an silently brandished his Battle Axe, his steps ceaselessly moving. His grip on the axe was quite peculiar, moving constantly up and down the handle. This meant the duration of axe rotation varied, making it impossible to pinpoint a decisive hitting point. Combined with minutely moving footwork that drifted forward, backward, left, and right, the center of gravity and hitting point kept shifting. This slight adjustment in grip gave rise to a completely different combat style, even categorized as a distinct weapon skill. Typically, the two-handed Battle Axe is held in a staggered grip to facilitate hard-hitting slashes, and its attack path has a linear, fierce explosion of power. Contrarily in this technique, gripping the center of the wooden handle while rotating, although it halves the range of lethal impact, can’t deliver an effective blow when used to slash or hack. This trick is usually employed with extremely long single-edged blades used to maintain combat distance, adjust attack point length, and possible blade landing points. “Abandoning slashing and chopping entirely? If it’s not a Naginata or a Zhanmajian? Then it must be a War Scythe. Good skill, I can’t lock onto your combat center.” Perhaps it was the guaranteed hardware advantage that made her feel like she could guide the game, or perhaps she was using trash-talk to probe Lu Ping’an’s trump card, it was now Hua Xueyi’s turn to speak. “But do you know, the moment you gave up using Magic Plants to challenge me with combat skills, there was no more comparison? You shouldn’t have given up your advantage, even less so stop running.” In reality, the moment Lu Ping’an stopped running, he was trapped in a dire situation by Hua senior sister. Now, the continuous adjustment of his defense pivot and attack force point was merely confined scrambling for a safe distance! He knew that if Hua senior sister closed in, he’d lack even the time to react… “Ding!” “Ding!” “Ding!” After the three consecutive crystal-clear sounds, Hua senior sister’s bubble shadow shattered again, and she was forced to retreat once more from her failed sneak attack. And Lu Ping’an, after retracting the swung Battle Axe, simply smiled and began to rotate it again. The Phantom Dancer’s illusion was not without cost. The fragile bubble shadow might be good for sneak attacks but certainly not for direct combat. Having her sneak attack blocked, she didn’t hurry. She simply walked slowly around Lu Ping’an in silence. Lu Ping’an was drawing small circles inside while she was drawing large ones outside; the scene resembled a predatory beast ready to devour its prey. Her pacing speed varied unpredictably, creating an eerie rhythm. “This time, is it the Roman March?” This was the benefit of having access to intel, Lu Ping’an’s understanding of Hua senior sister was far beyond her knowledge of him. He even knew what she used to adjust her attack rhythm, and could vaguely guess the exact moment of her fierce onslaught… “Senior sister, what are you afraid of? Rush in, and you win.” The moment the opponent was about to break out, Lu Ping’an suddenly spoke. A well-timed remark stalled her attack. But Hua Xueyi, who had once again adjusted herself, wasn’t in a hurry either. She was a great hunter, and confident predators always possessed great patience in the face of their prey. She was somewhat surprised though. How could such a heavy Battle Axe be used as a lightweight blade and rotated endlessly? She knew that to prevent herself from closing in, this type of “defensive posture” needed constant adjustment; this was a necessary expenditure. But playing this way should’ve exhausted excessive stamina long ago. The junior didn’t seem to be of a strength-type, yet his weapon-wielding speed was exceptionally fast… After weighing the probabilities based on past combat experience, she arrived at the most plausible answer, which made her even more reluctant to speak. “Don’t wait anymore, Hua senior sister. This weapon is enchanted with Lightweight. I could rotate it all day long.” Yet, Lu Ping’an casually added a stabbing remark. So what if I’m bullying you with superior equipment? Both parties continued to probe each other with words. Hua Xueyi, as the dominant one, didn’t rush to launch a fatal attack. She was trying to figure out what was giving her such a significant fright… She was craving a flawless victory, a win without a scratch. Meanwhile, Lu Ping’an was waiting patiently for the moment the prey would get hooked. “…3, 2, 1!” “Here it comes.” Hua Xueyi’s most comfortable attack point, was once again targeted by Lu Ping’an, the intelligence advantage allowing the young boy to strike in advance. “Witness my Tree Arrival!” Accompanying the inexplicable slogan was the sudden appearance of “Little An” himself on the field. Along with the arrival of the giant tree, of course, was the always accompanying violent whip. But what did this mean to Hua Xueyi? This time, she didn’t retreat because her rhythm was interrupted, she had already decided to end this fight. “Wave Time.” The girl danced amidst the tentacles, passing through them like a phantom, foreseeing the trajectory of all in advance, avoiding all of it. This was not some abnormal ability, but simply an exceptional neural reflex and movement skill. And with the appearance of the wave, there was golden radiance. Hua Xueyi, her hair tips shimmering, began her fierce attack in a spin. If executed completely, that set of attacks could break through a city wall’s defenses. “Take my stick!” The suddenly thrown baton was carefully avoided by the girl, as she kept an eye on it next to her foot….. even though she did not feel any threat from it at all. The excellent and superior hunter was not in a rush, she patiently observed Lu Ping’an’s every counterattack, also waiting for a possible trump card. “Art is explosion!” The number of bursting Thorn Fruits this time was more, but it was still inadequate to cause a threat. Hua Xueyi didn’t show-off by catching all of them, she had caused those outrageous scenes by using her explosive ability. But while watching Lu Ping’an’s every move, she easily avoided all the spikes, which couldn’t stop her. It seemed that Lu Ping’an was already driven to a corner. But the girl, she did not let down her guard. She didn’t think Lu Ping’an was the kind of brute who liked to persist. He must still have a chance of winning, then come on, let’s take a look. Unconsciously, a bit of pleasure curved up on that cold, machine-like, delicate face. She was looking forward. But when she actually put all her attention on Lu Ping’an, focusing on his every move, in fact, she had already fallen into the trap. “Long live Xu Dela (Nine-headed serpent)!” With a weird war cry, Lu Ping’an suddenly launched his attack. The attack was fierce, and the force of the suddenly crashing battleaxe was immense. A newborn reaching this point was already impressive. But, seeing an opponent who had been driven to the wall resorting to a desperate last-minute offensive, Hua Xueyi was disappointed. “That’s all…..huh?” Her dissatisfaction was about to show, when sudddenly, there was a sharp pain under her foot. Before she could react, Lu Ping’an’s fierce strike was already coming. “BANG!” This time after the collision, the one at disadvantage was still Lu Ping’an, as the baton in his hand was nearly knocked out. “Baton? He switched weapons?” At this moment, Hua Xueyi finally realized what had happened. She looked down, only to notice a small wound on her thigh, it was the result of being bitten by “venomous snake” under her foot while she was completely focused on guarding against Lu Ping’an. As for that venomous snake… “Well done, Xu Dela.” The “battleaxe” actually extended its handle, taking the initiative to let Lu Ping’an grasp it. “Active Weapon? The battleaxe was parasitized by Magic Plants?” This was not something hard to understand, but looking at the opponent’s exquisite weapon, Hua Xueyi could only feel inexplicable heartache. If she also had a good set of armor, she wouldn’t have been so easily cut… “BANG!” The iron fist strongly knocked, to Hua Xueyi, nothing had changed. This desperate struggle was creative, but it was just that. “That’s it? Now it’s my turn…” “No, it’s already over.” Lu Ping’an shrugged his shoulders, even directly dispelled his fighting stance, and took out his phone….. Hua Xueyi was stunned at first, was he admitting defeat? Then she noticed something was wrong with her hand….. “What? What?! What did you do to me? Why are you taking photos of me! XiaoLu, why are you also taking? You really are my good sister!” “Hehe, if you don’t want the photos to be leaked, then obediently listen to me… haha, I’ve wanted to say this line for a long time, come on, give me a smile. Don’t cover up, senior you have a good foundation, even when you’re old you’ll still be a beauty.” Yes, it was all over, from the moment that the blade smeared with Silver Poison, pierced senior sister’s skin. “Hiss! My knife, is a poisonous blade smeared with poison!”
