With King Kamuch's order, the duel officially began.
Neither of them rushed forward to fight immediately. Instead, they each drew their weapons and approached cautiously, looking for the other's weak spots to attack.
Shadow Blade Sword Master did not underestimate Li Shuyi. In the duel in the Ring of Glory, he had seen too many orcs who lost their glory because of underestimating the enemy. What's more, he was carrying the honor of the entire Shadow Blade clan, and this battle was simply
Failure is not tolerated.
While observing carefully, what emerged in Li Shuyi's mind was the information about the Shadow Blade Sword Master that Bai Xiaowen shared with her.
[Skill 1: Ancestral Banner: Passive, the battle flag of the Shadow Blade Sword Master represents the approval of the ancestors, strength +10, constitution +10. Actively activate the Ancestral Banner, you can activate the Glory of the Ancestors once, and the movement speed is increased by 30%, lasting for 20 seconds.
.]
[Skill 2: Critical Strike: Passive, the Shadow Blade Sword Master gains an additional 30% critical hit rate bonus, and the damage caused by each critical hit is 250% (increased from 200%). Actively activate the critical strike to activate
A sneak attack will instantly rush behind the target enemy, and the next attack will definitely hit a critical hit.]
[Skill 3: Invincible Slash: Passive, Shadow Blade Sword Master's total attack power increases by 20%. Actively activate Invincible Slash, and he will turn into a phantom and sweep across the battlefield, continuously launching slashes at enemies within melee range for a duration of 3 seconds.
(The target of each slash is determined by the caster), and is immune to all damage with priority level 7 or below during the move.】
【Skill 4:???】
[Skill 5: Ring of Glory lv3: Gain 500 extra health points and 50% toughness. 】
Through insight, Bai Xiaowen asked Ruel, Mulkan and others to verify the previous battle information of the Shadow Blade Sword Master, and finally compiled this more detailed information. There is another skill that he has no clue about, but there is no way to do more.
Detailed.
Regardless of attributes or skills, Shadow Blade Sword Master is a well-deserved rare leader.
The four combat skills, active and passive, can be used as eight skills. It is simply a weakened version of the lord - compared to the real lord, what the Shadow Blade Sword Master lacks is probably the template and a few attributes.
Li Shuyi's attributes and skills are at a comprehensive disadvantage. Her only advantage lies in intelligence and her flexible fighting style as an awakened person.
The two walked slowly in a circle, which was a confrontation in momentum. As time passed, the circle between the two became smaller and smaller, gradually approaching each other's melee range.
Almost at the same time, Li Shuyi and Shadow Blade Sword Master burst out at extremely fast speeds and passed by each other.
Danglanglanglang...
The moment they passed by each other, the two collided for the first time. After a series of clashes of gold and iron, the two quickly turned around.
The Shadow Blade Sword Master's eyes showed a trace of surprise under the battle scar lines, and he said in a deep voice: "Your swordsmanship is good, human woman!"
Little did they know that Li Shuyi was even more shocked.
Before the duel, Li Shuyi used the "Shui Shui Sword Manual (With Annotations)".
This item allows the user to immediately learn the water-breaking sword technique up to level 6
.
What Bai Xiaowen is interested in is the effect of improving advanced sword skills.
Is the level 10 swordsmanship the top level of the awakener stage?
The original White Phoenix Team, including Bai Xiaowen, thought so. However, as their level and strength increased, and the characters in the spiritual world they encountered became stronger and stronger, the White Phoenix Team's horizons were broadened, and they gradually realized that advanced
Level 10 is not the pinnacle of combat expertise.
In this regard, the leaders of the Sword Song plane are proof that when they perform martial arts moves, their combat specialties are generally one or two levels higher than their own level. When they perform peerless martial arts, they can even reach level 3 or above.
promote.
Obviously, there are higher levels above level 10. For example, the gap between Ying Jianfan and Zuo Yunxuan, and the gap between Zuo Yunxuan and Si Jue are determined by levels above level 10.
Bai Xiaowen made a special summary for this purpose.
Except for martial arts planes such as the sword song plane, the combat specialties of high-level leaders and strong men in the spirit world generally follow their levels. For example, a level 8 leader has level 8 combat specialties, and a level 10 leader has 10
Level combat specialties.
This rule also applies to most lords. The lord's advantage over the leader is not reflected in the "soft power" of combat expertise, but in the hard gap between templates, attributes and skill intensity.
Of course, there must be exceptions for a small number of lords. When using certain types of weapons that they are good at, they can exert combat effectiveness beyond the superficial level. Take the Three Kingdoms plane as an example, the long-handled weapon specialty of level 10 Zhao Yun (Lord of Dragon Spear) when holding a gun.
, much stronger than most level 10 generals.
However, after Li Shuyi's advanced swordsmanship reaches level 10, there is no experience slot for the advanced swordsmanship category - in other words, Li Shuyi cannot practice swordsmanship through conventional means to improve her skills.
On this basis, Bai Xiaowen asked Li Shuyi to use the Duanshui Sword Manual (with annotations). What he was interested in was the effect of "improving sword skills by level 1~3".
Specialties that have been upgraded by at least 1 level!
At this time, on Li Shuyi's personal panel, the sword skill skill is still advanced to level 10, but the sword skill skill she can actually use is level 11 - specifically, after Li Shuyi uses this sword manual, her sword skills become more advanced.
unpredictable.
This is without using Tianzang Swordsmanship (disabled). At this time, Li Shuyi's Tianzang Swordsmanship is level 3. Once the swordsmanship moves are used, Li Shuyi can display a swordsmanship equivalent to the 12th level!
In the confrontation with the Shadow Blade Sword Master just now, Li Shuyi had already used Tenzang Sword Technique (Disabled)! She competed with her opponent with the 12th level advanced sword technique, but the result was evenly matched.
Bai Xiaowen could sense that the skill and strength of the Shadow Blade Sword Master was better than that of ordinary level 10 leaders, but it was at the level of level 11, which was equivalent to his own before the breakthrough.
The reason why he relies on level 11 swordsmanship to compete with his level 12 swordsmanship is because Shadow Blade Sword Master's attributes are too strong. With 64 points of strength and 90 points of agility, he is better than Li Shuyi, making up for the gap in swordsmanship.
This is after Li Shuyi has upgraded her professional level to level 8, adding 3 points of strength and 4 points of agility.
If the two passive bonuses cannot be used, Li Shuyi's strength and agility will be constantly suppressed. Even if the passive stack is full, it will only be equivalent to the Shadow Blade Sword Master.
But as a master of sword skills, would the Shadow Blade Sword Master let Li Shuyi comfortably deal damage again and again, with full passive stacks? Obviously impossible!
A layman can watch the excitement, but an expert can watch the door. The onlookers could only see that Li Shuyi and the Shadow Blade Sword Master were equally matched in the first round, but the two people in the Ring of Glory already knew each other's strengths and weaknesses.
After the Shadow Blade Sword Master praised Li Shuyi, he raised his assessment of Li Shuyi's strength level. He approached cautiously again, held the long sword in both hands, shouted loudly, and struck a vertical blow.
A strong wind broke through the sky, and the fierce wind pressure blew Li Shuyi's black hair.
With this sword, the Shadow Blade Sword Master used all his strength. He took full advantage of his strong strength and did not play fancy sword skills with Li Shuyi, just a straight slash!
If Li Shuyi ignores this sword and exchanges injuries for injuries to attack him, she will only play into the hands of the Shadow Blade Sword Master. His ancestral flag is passive, not only adding 10 points of strength, but also 10 points of constitution, and additional
With 500 health points, it was like a wild horse.
An agile warrior with more than 1,000 health points is a complete bully. The Shadow Blade Sword Master doesn't have to worry at all. The opponent can suddenly burst out and kill him?
As expected, Li Shuyi did not dare to fight and could only dodge sideways.
This flash gave the Shadow Blade Sword Master the upper hand. He swung his long sword horizontally, carrying the roaring wind and slicing across Li Shuyi's waist. He also used full strength.
Li Shuyi took another step back, and the Chixiao Sword in her right hand accurately landed on the broad surface of the long sword, but it was like a dragonfly shaking a pillar.
If the strength of the two is equal, Li Shuyi's exquisite sword can completely disrupt the center of gravity of the Shadow Blade Sword Master, and then the left-hand sword can take advantage of the gap to attack, switching between offense and defense. But the difference in strength is absolute, and her sword
He just gave himself the strength to retreat, barely avoiding this horizontal slash.
The Shadow Blade Sword Master was slightly frightened, and once again made up his mind that he must not compete with Li Shuyi in terms of skills. He continued to use his swordsmanship widely, forcing Li Shuyi back all the way.
If you defend for a long time, you will lose, and if you keep dodging, you can't always miss. Li Shuyi's dodge space has become increasingly narrow.
After ten moves, Li Shuyi was forced to parry and block in order to prevent herself from being slashed. But this kind of parry played into the Shadow Blade Sword Master's plan. The shock force and stiffness brought by the high strength would
Let Li Shuyi's flaws get bigger and bigger!
Suddenly, Li Shuyi's left-hand sword burst into flames, drawing a fountain of blood from the Shadow Blade Sword Master's body!
Red Leaf Lord's Glory Sword - Draw blood! Simultaneously absorb the power value of the target enemy to bless yourself.
The blood fountain bathed the long sword, and Li Shuyi's power increased sharply by 16 points - that is, her professional level * 2. In contrast, the Shadow Blade Sword Master's power dropped by 16 points!
Dang! Chi!
He raised his elbows and armpits, and after a sound of metal and iron clashing, a slanting wound appeared on the Shadow Blade Sword Master's chest, and blood spilled out.
Li Shuyi took this opportunity to rush forward. The special effect of absorbing blood can last for 30 seconds. During these 30 seconds, Li Shuyi's powerful burst period will occur!
Dang rang, dang rang...
In the past, Shadow Blade Sword Master always looked for opportunities to fight with Li Shuyi, staggering his opponent and widening his openings. But now, it was Li Shuyi who took the initiative.
After the Shadow Blade Sword Master parried a few swords, he quickly retreated and simultaneously activated the Glory of the Ancestors. His movement speed increased by 30%, widening the distance between him and Li Shuyi!
The experienced Shadow Blade Sword Master has quickly judged that Li Shuyi's current strong state cannot last long, and has made up his mind to use delaying tactics. Although his power has been absorbed, his 90 points of agility and 30% increase in movement speed have not been achieved.
Let him move as fast as a ghost, sprinting around the field without giving Li Shuyi a chance to expand her advantage!
But in this way, the Shadow Blade Sword Master was at a disadvantage in the scene and was chased and beaten by Li Shuyi. The orcs who were watching were all in disbelief.
Li Shuyi took a breath and immediately used a prop: the Iron Fist Flag Flower Rocket!
laugh!
Sparks exploded, and six figures quickly fell down and rushed toward the Shadow Blade Sword Master!
Two Iron Fist sect masters and four Iron Fist sect trainee disciples blocked the Shadow Blade Sword Master in front and back, reducing the space for him to dodge.
Let me explain here, there is no restriction on the use of any weapons or props in the duel in the Orc Kingdom. The summoning prop used by Li Shuyi summoned six helpers. The orc masters present only need to confirm that these six "people" are Li Shuyi
"Summoned creatures" (based on the affiliation between the two parties), rather than independent human individuals.
In the eyes of the orcs, this is the same as Bai Xiaowen's use of summoned creatures in duels.
To be honest, the summoning profession is also a type of profession in the spiritual world. Using summoned creatures does not violate the rules of one-on-one duels.
Li Shuyi was not a summoner, and she did not have the ability to control things in a precise manner. She could only give the simplest attack instructions to the six "people".
The Shadow Blade Sword Master was slightly surprised, but he was not panicked. He could tell at a glance that these six people were just cannon fodder and not worth mentioning at all. The long sword made a billowing light, and the four trainee disciples fell to the ground one after another.
The two Iron Fist sect masters had the "Wandering Step" light skill, but due to the huge gap in strength, they could not sustain three moves and were killed by the Shadow Blade Sword Master with two swords.
Under their delay, Li Shuyi had already rushed to the melee range of the Shadow Blade Sword Master, and took the opportunity to attack with three swords, all of which dealt damage.
The two passives have each stacked up to four levels!
The Shadow Blade Sword Master let out a low roar. The pain aroused his anger, and he stepped forward and came behind Li Shuyi.
The active activation special effect of the critical strike - sneak attack! The next knife will definitely hit a critical hit and cause 250% critical hit damage!
However, before the Shadow Blade Sword Master made his move, the cloak behind Li Shuyi shook like a living python, and the two snake patterns were like the vertical pupils of the python, staring at the Shadow Blade Sword Master without emotion.
The Shadow Blade Master froze!
Li Shuyi suddenly turned around and stabbed with both swords.
There was a soft bang, and a layer of blue light appeared on the surface of the Shadow Blade Sword Master. He quickly recovered from the stiff state and stepped back quickly. Li Shuyi's long sword, only the sword in her right hand was slightly faster, and scratched the Shadow Blade Sword Master's chest.
skin.
Shadow Blade Sword Master also has psychic items. If he didn't understand the control just now, he would definitely be hit by Li Shuyi's critical hit + vital attack to deal a lot of damage.
After closing the distance again, the Shadow Blade Sword Master let out a breath. He secretly reviewed in his mind that he had been too impulsive in launching the shadow attack just now. He should wait until the weak period when his power was absorbed has passed before fighting again!
In a duel between two skilled masters, combat skills need to be used with caution. Now Shadow Blade Sword Master has used two combat skills, while Li Shuyi currently only uses Tianzang Sword Technique.
However, in the eyes of the Shadow Blade Sword Master, Li Shuyi used one summoning skill and one control skill, but he couldn't recognize Tianzang Swordsmanship. He felt that it was not a loss if he exchanged two skills for two.
After a delay, the 30 seconds of absorbing power passed.
The Shadow Blade Sword Master felt the power return to his body. He moved his hands and feet, brushed the blade of the long sword with his fingers, and said in a cold voice: "Human, your magic time has been exhausted, now it's my turn!"
