“Hmph, she’s clearly just a useless flower vase. Where does her confidence come from?” Luo shasheng’s lips twitched in disdain. Ever since he lost to song Lingshan, he’d been paying close attention to Lin Yi’s group. After all, they might all be opponents in the draw, and he could see their performance from the start to the end.

If it was someone like song Lingshan, he’d be a bit worried, but now that it was Ziyu, the weakest of the bunch, there was no need to worry.

“Will Ziyu be okay?” Lingshan said, worried. She knew Luo shasheng’s strength the best-he was a foundation level fighter, and if she couldn’t fully grasp the countermoves that Lin Yi taught her, she’d have a hard time dealing with him.

“Ziyu, she …” Lin Yi paused and smiled,””He’s actually quite strong. ”

Lingshan and the others all looked at each other-Lin Yi’s standards were always very high, and they’d never heard him say anything like that before, even when it came to performances like this. For him to say that she was very strong … Could she be a genius?

At that moment, the fight officially began, and to everyone’s surprise, Ziyu didn’t follow the tactics and countermoves Lin Yi had taught them-she chose to attack first.

This scene not only surprised everyone, but also Luo shasheng, who was in the middle of the field, was shocked. However, he immediately revealed a sneer,”if you want to strike first, you need to have the strength to do so, do you?”

With a cold laugh, he swung his signature weapon, the death blade, at her. Ziyu, however, dodged to the side, and closed in on her with a punch.

Shasheng was shocked-Ziyu was hitting his Mingmen! How was this possible?!

If it was the most famous move of the snow sword sect, it was still acceptable for someone to lock onto its Mingmen. However, the move he was using now, traceless snow on the ground, was just an unremarkable move. How could this woman have predicted it?

She couldn’t just say that it was her spontaneous reaction, right? That reaction speed was too shocking. Moreover, could an ordinary person study snow sword sect’s moves so thoroughly? even snow sword sect’s disciples themselves might not be able to lock onto the fatal point of each move so quickly, right?

It was a good thing traceless snow didn’t have as many openings as snowkill, and while Luo shasheng quickly changed his moves, Ziyu didn ‘t. She still hit where she was, but Luo shasheng easily blocked it.

“Does this woman not know how to be flexible?” Luo shasheng paused, but before he could react, Ziyu followed up with another attack, faster than before. This time, however, she didn’t lock onto the target.

Luo shasheng quickly blocked again, but before he could even stop, Ziyu’s third attack came at him at an even faster speed. It didn’t lock onto the Mingmen either, and looked like a normal part.

“She’s only choosing unimportant seats. What’s this woman doing?” Luo shasheng was a bit confused. Ziyu’s attack was abnormally fast, but it was very easy to block. It wasn’t threatening at all.

It was just that Lingshan had done it before, and even if Luo shasheng looked down on Ziyu, he didn’t dare let his guard down at this sudden and unexpected combo. He decided to stay calm and steady, and started to defend himself.

After seven or eight moves, it was all the same, and he was starting to get impatient. He’d seen through Ziyu already-she was weak, after all, and everything she’d done was just a Bluff.

Luo shasheng was about to strike back, but before he could even do so, Ziyu was already coming for his vitals. He was so scared that he almost peed his pants, and quickly went back to his turtle-like posture.

“This is …” Song Lingshan looked at this scene, confused. Ziyu’s performance felt like she was using Lin Yi’s countermove, but it wasn’t completely the case. Other than the first move and the one just now, the other moves weren’t meant to counter snow sword sect.

“Other than the snow sword sect, Ziyu is also using the same counter-attack technique that she used against the other ancient sects. Boss, what’s going on?” Yu Bing asked quietly, finally understanding what was going on.

Chentian and the others reacted as well-no wonder Ziyu’s moves looked so familiar. They were all moves from the ancient sects, but they were all mixed together.

“As you can see, it’s a mixed version of the ancient sect’s counter-attack style.” Lin Yi said with a smile. He’d made this up for Ziyu-with her exam syndrome, it seemed like it’d be hard for her to use a proper countermove like everyone else. That was why he thought of this.

He didn’t need to think too much about it. As long as he could display all of this mixed-up counter-attack style in the competition, it would be much easier.

“But will this work?” Lingshan asked, confused. Ziyu did seem to be intimidating the guy a little, but she didn’t hurt him at all. He’d see through her sooner or later, and it was just a waste of Qi and stamina-there was no chance of winning at all.

“That’s right. If we’re not as strong as our opponent, it’s easy for us to reveal our weaknesses. We have to use a defensive strategy. Didn’t you teach us that, boss?” Chentian said.

“That’s normal, but look at what Ziyu’s doing. ” Lin Yi suggested.

Everyone looked at Ziyu’s reaction, and after a while, Yu Bing came to his senses.”It seems like she intentionally reduced the power of her moves in order to increase the speed of her attacks. To be more precise, she had no choice but to reduce the power of her moves.”

“That’s right. As the saying goes,’there’s nothing that can not be destroyed, only speed can not be broken’. The word ‘fast’ doesn’t just refer to the speed of movement, but also the speed of attack. When the speed of attack reaches a certain level, it can make the opponent unable to react in time and achieve the purpose of attacking instead of defending. So I taught her a new set of fighting methods, close-range instant strike.” Lin Yi explained with a smile.

This was something he’d heard from someone on Sky Class Island, but because he had strong skills like the five elements killing Qi and lightning burial, he didn’t have to play around with them. He didn’t think that it would come in handy this time. (To be continued.) ”
