Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 185: Winning Streak
Soon, the second round of fighting began in the hall.
During the dual confrontation between the Nightingale District and the Fog City District, Xu Shen watched quietly from the sidelines. He was not in a rush to make a move. He looked more at the abilities of others so that he would be more confident when making a move.
Although Xu Shen killed several second-state beings after entering the second state, he did not underestimate other second-state beings. For example, if he encountered the ability of the woman named Xue before, he would not even know her attack method, let alone resist.
This ability can even erase the differences in the depth of one's power.
Soon, the leader of the Nightingale District won. The two of them fought to the point, but in the battle of abilities, the leader of the Fog City District was obviously slightly inferior and was defeated.
Seeing this, people from other districts also took to the battlefield.
The Sleepless Zone also participated in the battle. Yue Ling chose to challenge the leader of the Free Zone. She had strong offensive abilities and was light and agile, as nimble as a moon fox. She was able to quickly move around and defeat the opponent's fire attack, showing her extremely sophisticated combat experience.
It is difficult to say which ability is stronger or weaker, the key lies in mastering, understanding and applying.
This does not include trait abilities.
Most trait abilities have advantages over other abilities.
"Mr. Xu, how about we have a fight?"
After Yue Ling won and stepped down, the young man next to her was also ready to take action. The opponent he chose was Xu Shen.
Hearing the young man's words, Yue Ling, who had just finished the game, looked slightly changed. She couldn't help but glance at him and said, "Are you crazy?"
The young man looked at Xu Shen with a calm demeanor and confidence in his eyes. He said to Yue Ling beside him, "Don't be so surprised. I will show mercy. Although you said that the Black Light District assisted our district before, our district has also assisted the Black Light District before. This kind of assistance on a mission is nothing."
Yue Ling's face was gloomy, and she said, "You are no match for him. You are destroying your own future!"
If he showed off in front of the Queen Ant and won, he would naturally attract more attention. However, in her opinion, if the other party challenged Xu Shen, he would most likely fail.
Even she was not sure she could defeat Xu Shen.
Especially after seeing Xu Shen’s attack in the Ruins Cave, where he killed two people with one sword, she didn’t dare to confront him with such terrifying power.
"Don't joke." The young man looked at her in surprise, then laughed: "No matter how talented he is, he is only a newcomer who has just entered our circle for a year, while I have been in this circle for five years! In terms of combat experience, I have more experience than him, and in terms of strength, we are about the same. What we are comparing is ability."
"He is the one I am most confident of defeating. I am still worried that someone else will snatch his place from me."
In the eyes of the young men, Xu Shen was the easiest target to bully.
If Chu Bai from the Black Light Branch came, he would not be sure. After all, Chu Bai was well-known. He had been the captain of Team 1 for many years. Even if he had just entered the second form, he should not be underestimated.
But Xu Shen... is just a pink|fresh newcomer.
The changes in abilities and attack tactics alone would probably make him panic.
"You underestimate him too much. I may not be able to beat him." Yue Ling's face was gloomy as she tried to dissuade the young man.
"No way?" The young man looked at her in surprise. It was too exaggerated for Yue Ling to say such a thing.
"Before the other party agrees, quickly change your opponent." Yue Ling said quickly.
The young man raised his eyebrows slightly. The invitation had already been sent out. Wouldn't it be too embarrassing to change the opponent at the last minute?
While he was pondering the truth and reason behind Yue Ling's words, Xu Shen noticed other people's gazes and calmly accepted the challenge.
Hearing his voice, Yue Ling looked over with complicated eyes and just shook her head slightly.
Xu Shen saw what Yue Ling meant and asked him to show mercy.
Try your best...Xu Shen did not dare to look down on others or do favors casually. Any second attitude should not be underestimated, and carelessness would be irresponsible to oneself.
Seeing that Xu Shen agreed, the young man didn't think any more about it. He walked forward to the center of the field, adjusted his body, and escaped into the ruins.
"Come on, Yue Ling said you are very strong, let me see you for myself." The young man said with a smile.
Xu Shen said nothing and also escaped into the world of ruins.
Seeing Xu Shen standing still, the young man narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't you draw your sword? If I take action, you might not be able to make it in time."
"bring it on."
Xu Shen felt that he talked too much. With such a lot of noise, would the queen ant choose him as her personal guard?
There was a chill in the young man's eyes, he felt that he was being looked down upon, he sneered in his heart, Xu Shen became a dual-state just a few months earlier than him, they were basically the same generation, what was there to be proud of?
bass!
He suddenly drew his sword and rushed towards Xu Shen.
One strike will kill... There was a gleam in the young man's eyes, and he was ready to win with the strongest attitude, so as to leave a deep impression in the queen ant's heart.
whoosh!
His figure suddenly disappeared, as if becoming transparent.
Fast? Not so fast that it disappears, but fast in terms of ability.
Shadow series!
Everyone opened and closed their eyes, looking around intently. Shadow abilities are difficult to detect and are suitable for assassinations, but can be easily restrained by perception abilities, unless they are some extremely special shadow abilities.
In a blink of an eye, the young man went around behind Xu Shen.
His sword suddenly slashed away.
But this was just a feint attack. He was unsure of Xu Shen's ability. If he was a perception type, then he would most likely be able to detect his movements. Therefore, a rash attack would play into the enemy's hands.
The sword tip passed by, and when it was about to touch Xu Shen, the young man saw Xu Shen draw his sword.
As expected, I can sense it. Is it the perception system?
The young man's eyes narrowed. His ability was restrained, which made him a little surprised and regretful. In this case, he had no advantage in defeating Xu Shen. However, if he could still defeat Xu Shen with his ability restrained, that would be even more impressive!
Fortunately, he did not use his full strength in this sword attack, so he was able to quickly retract his force and change direction.
Just when the young man was secretly congratulating himself on his rich combat experience, he suddenly discovered that a silver-white light was quickly approaching in front of him.
So fast!
The young man's pupils shrank and he quickly dropped his sword, trying to turn around and dodge.
But the movements of his body suddenly became slow, as if countless arms were pulling at his body.
Around his body, some extremely tough silk threads appeared without his knowledge and stuck to his body like a spider web.
There was a clang and the sound of metal burning. The young man felt a huge pain in his shoulder and the powerful force sent his body flying backwards.
On the other hand, Xu Shen, holding a sword in his hand, just looked at him quietly.
The young man's face instantly turned as ugly as pig liver. He stood up from the ground, growled and rushed towards Xu Shen again.
Xu Shen frowned and swung his sword again. The blade swept across the young man's hair, leaving a scratch on his face.
The young man's ability was restrained, and he had to rely on his own combat experience to deal with the situation, but he was crushed by Xu Shen. He was so ashamed and angry that a strong murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
"Stop it." Yue Ling said in a low voice.
She could see that Xu Shen had already shown mercy, and if he continued, it would be bad for the reputation of the Sleepless District.
The other two players outside the field also realized that the winner had been decided. Continuing to act tough at this time would only leave a bad impression.
The young man gritted his teeth, resisted the urge to lose control, and said to Xu Shen: "Is your ability perception?"
Although he asked the question despite knowing the answer, it revealed his unwillingness and a desire to save face.
After all, with the ability to restrain, it is normal to be defeated... The Queen Ant may think so.
Xu Shen raised his eyebrows slightly and said nothing. “Whatever you feel is what it is. Who would clearly state their abilities?
Seeing that Xu Shen didn't say anything, the young man became even angrier, but he still maintained his courtesy and bowed to the queen ant, then retreated, but he stared at Xu Shen with anger and resentment flashing in his eyes.
Xu Shen noticed the young man's eyes, his eyes flashed, and he also bowed to the queen ant, then quietly retreated back to the black light area.
"You'd better not provoke him. I just said that you are no match for him."
Yue Ling saw the murderous intention in the young man, frowned and warned him in a low voice. She didn't want something bad to happen to the rising star of the Wumian District, which had finally emerged. If that happened, she would have to support the Wumian District alone, which would be very difficult.
"He's so arrogant!"
The young man gritted his teeth and found an excuse for himself.
"You were the one who challenged him first." Yue Ling thought he was a little ridiculous.
When the young man heard this, instead of relief, his eyes were filled with even more anger and hatred.
"Mr. Xu from the Black Light District seems to have not used his full strength yet. Who wants to challenge him again?" At this time, the old man surnamed Zhao in front said with a smile.
At the same time, he looked at Xu Shen gently, showing a little friendliness towards him.
Xu Shen was a little confused, not knowing whether the other party was making things difficult for him or helping him.
"Then let me try. Mr. Xu's ability just now should be the perception type. He was able to keenly perceive the attack of Mr. Li. It just so happens that I am a manipulator. We should not have the advantage in terms of ability."
A middle-aged man from the General Administration came out and said with a smile.
When Xu Shen saw the old man surnamed Zhao nod slightly to the middle-aged man, he immediately understood the other party's thoughts. It turned out that he was not helping him, but just laying the groundwork for his own people.
Because he was too strong, they let the second state of the General Administration defeat him to highlight their own people?
Xu Shen's eyes flickered, not knowing whether his guess was right or not, and whether he had wronged the other party. But no matter what,
Now that we are here, we must win!
"please."
Xu Shen stepped out again.
"Captain Xu, be careful." Luo Hua and others looked worried. After all, Xu Shen had just experienced a battle. Although it seemed that the victory or defeat was decided in one move and it was a piece of cake, no one knew what kind of toll it had on Xu Shen himself.
Soon, the two of them escaped into the world of ruins again.
The middle-aged man laughed, and seeing that Xu Shen was still carrying a sword on his back, he did not ask Xu Shen to draw his sword, which would be embarrassing. Besides, he had just seen Xu Shen draw his sword, which was as fast as a startled wild goose. He did have the qualifications to be so arrogant.
But...if you put on airs in front of him, you'll be in trouble.
The middle-aged man drew his sword and attacked quickly. The temperature around him suddenly dropped. Then, extremely tiny transparent crystal needles condensed in the air and shot towards Xu Shen quickly like dense bee stings.
The eyes, mouth, nose, and gaps that cannot be protected by combat uniforms.
This is his ability, control of ice and snow!
Compared to creating large icicles and spikes, he prefers to create tiny ice crystals. If he assassinates ordinary people, it will be silent and no evidence will be left because the ice and snow will melt.
It can also be very effective against the Ruins Slayer, as invisible attacks are the most deadly!
"Um?"
Xu Shen did not see the numerous ice crystals, but he felt them.
Through the wire mesh.
The silk thread that enveloped Xu Shen's body for half a meter touched the densely packed sharp ice crystals, and Xu Shen immediately realized that it was an enemy attack.
Plus the lowered ambient temperature.
Xu Shen had a vague guess that if it was also a manipulator, like the two-state man who controlled light before, he could use light reflection to deal with this trick and make it appear.
For example, by creating a rainbow, the location of ice crystals can be determined by where the rainbow appears.
But he doesn't have that ability.
Fortunately, this thing was captured in the Xusi area.
In an instant, the Xu Shen's Xu force was released quickly again, condensing into more Xu threads that intertwined layer by layer.
A strange scene appeared. Half a meter in front of Xu Shen, snow and wind gradually appeared, piling up into a ball and covering Xu Shen.
Other people outside the field also saw the middle-aged man's attack at this moment and were somewhat horrified. Such a strange killing move was hard to defend against.
"The ability of the manipulation system is really insidious and despicable!" Those with strong attack ability cursed in their hearts. They like fair and honest hand-to-hand combat, but the manipulation system likes to use shady tricks.
“Is this your ability?”
When the middle-aged man saw that his attack was blocked, his face changed slightly, and he did not stop. The cold air gathered and spread quickly along the ground. As long as it touched Xu Shen's body, he could use his ability to freeze Xu Shen's blood and turn it into an ice sculpture.
When Xu Shen heard the crackling sound of ice and snow condensing on the ground, his face changed slightly. This manipulation ability was indeed no joke. He felt that his own Xusi domain was frozen and his Xuli became stiff. If he continued to stay here, the ice and snow would spread and it would become the opponent's home court.
"Child, do you need your mother's help?"
A gentle voice emerged behind Xu Shen.
Xu Shen's face changed slightly and he immediately refused his "mother's" help.
He has grown up and should rely on himself.
Besides, there was an ant queen staring at her nearby, and she couldn't let her see her "mother", otherwise they would kill her as a ruined beast...
Rely on yourself...
Bang!
Xu Shen took a step forward and instantly broke through the frozen Xu silk net in front of him. Then the Xu force surging out of his body condensed into a hazy Xu mist again. He burst out with all his strength and came in front of the middle-aged man.
So fast!
The middle-aged man was frightened, but his body slid backwards rapidly. The ice and snow on the ground made him move as fast as if he was skating.
Xusi!
Xu Shen suddenly shot out a strand of silk, which stuck to the opponent's body and quickly moved closer.
An ice and snow storm suddenly arose around them, blocking .
But Xu Shen did not rely on his sight. Instead, he swung his sword quickly based on the position sensed by Xu Si.
Bang!
The ice and snow storm was shattered, and countless snowflakes fell.
The sword slashed on the heavy body, and a figure flew backwards. It was the middle-aged man.
His ability was interrupted and he quickly got up from the ground. Although the sword failed to destroy his combat uniform, the shockwaves made his internal organs feel like churning and he wanted to vomit.
As he got up, he activated his ability again, but Xu Shen got close to him again and swung his sword for the second time.
With a clang, the sword edge suddenly deviated and was knocked off course by a force.
"It's just a competition, just stop when it's enough." The old man surnamed Zhao said with a smile, but his eyes were a little deep.
