10 minutes. This amount of time appearing in a one-on-one match was not short at all.

In the early days of the Glory Professional League, matches had time limits. Back then, the time limit for a one-on-one match was five minutes. If no winner was decided after five minutes, the victor would be decided by the percentage of life remaining.

The time limit was originally arranged to facilitate broadcasting, but this rule led to many underhanded styles of play. For example, after gaining a certain lead in the life percentage, players would no longer directly confront their opponents but would choose to play hide-and-seek on the map.

In this way, many more tactical choices arose, but this hide-and-seek tactic was extremely uninteresting to watch. Opponents were depressed, players and viewers extremely disliked it, and even commentators were speechless when encountering such scenes. Thus, the alliance quickly convened a hearing and ultimately abolished the time limit setting. From then on, any match had no time limit, lasting until someone died.

As a result, even the most underhanded players needed to be proactive and could no longer completely rely on evasion. Spectator enjoyment was thus guaranteed. As for broadcasting, the lack of a time limit did make scheduling programs a bit troublesome, but it was not entirely insurmountable. After all, spectator enjoyment was also a guarantee of viewership, and broadcasters did not want to make things easy for themselves by putting on a sleep-inducing hide-and-seek match.

The time limit system was abolished, but the early choice of five minutes was still relatively scientific. Five minutes was enough to play a substantial one-on-one match. Taking the current system of deciding life or death as an example, the vast majority of one-on-one matches could be completed within five minutes.

Those that dragged on for more than five minutes were mostly cautious, underhanded playstyles, where both sides slowly whittled each other down.

However, the current match was clearly not like that. One Autumn Leaf and Desert Dust collided fiercely, and the map was almost a fifth destroyed by the two. Where was there even a hint of underhandedness?

For such a playstyle, for both sides to have persisted for as long as ten minutes was extremely rare. Moreover, ten minutes was clearly not the end. Both of them still had more than a quarter of their life left!

The audience was dumbfounded, and it became somewhat uninteresting for the commentators to explain the skills and moves used by both sides. At this point, they quickly searched for some information and began to talk about the time.

"10 minutes! Sun Xiang and Han Wenqing's one-on-one match has already lasted ten minutes. Currently, both sides have a quarter of their life left. At this rate, it should last 13 minutes. Friends familiar with Glory's various records might not find this time too amazing, but everyone should know that the creation of extremely long match times is mostly due to the evasive playstyle of the weisuo liu (underhanded stream). For intense collisions like the one we are seeing, to last more than 10 minutes, at least in my commentary career, this is the first time I have witnessed it firsthand," the commentator said eloquently. Because this situation was relatively unexpected, they naturally had not done their homework beforehand. At this time, they quickly searched and could not immediately identify the nature of those matches in the record. The commentator could only use their relatively rich experience to prove the unusual nature of this match.

In fact, Glory players with a little experience did not need him to say this nonsense. Who hadn't played a one-on-one match in the arena? Everyone knew what ten minutes meant. Everyone could see how fierce this match was. No one paid any attention to the commentator's nagging. Everyone was just staring at the match on the field.

"Who will win?" Chen Guo asked, tugging at Ye Xiu's arm. This match was indeed evenly matched, and it was impossible to see any advantages or disadvantages. Chen Guo suspected that her skill was not high enough to see it, so she wanted to get some information from the more skilled Ye Xiu.

"It's hard to say right now," Ye Xiu said.

"Why?"

"They still have a lot of health," Ye Xiu said.

"What do you mean?" Chen Guo asked, puzzled.

"Neither of them can seize complete initiative right now. They still have more than a quarter of their life left, so it's impossible to win with just one chance. It'll have to drag on for a while, at least until they're in the red!" Ye Xiu said.

"What happens after they're in the red?" Chen Guo asked.

"After they're in the red, a high-damage ultimate can decide the outcome of this match," Ye Xiu said.

"Oh..." Chen Guo nodded, seemingly understanding. On the other side, Tang Rou was also watching this match with extreme focus. After all, Battle Mage was the character she was currently using. She could see some clues in this match like a semi-professional. However, her Soft Mist was not even level 40, and she was missing many skills, so what she could see was somewhat limited. However, just from the low-level skills that Soft Mist also knew, Tang Rou could see a huge gap.

Whether it was the controller or the character...

The audience was no longer cheering. Because the match was so deadlocked, both sides were constantly attacking each other while also constantly extinguishing each other's attacks. Every time the audience thought a climax was about to appear, they would find that the cheers were just in vain. After shouting in vain too many times, everyone felt embarrassed. Wasn't it very unprofessional to always be like this?

Everyone silently watched and silently waited for the outcome of this match.

Only occasionally would they suddenly realize: "Wow! The two of their lives have gone down so much again."

But no one could see all the details of how this life had gone down. Many viewers were somewhat confused as to whether this match was intense or not. The two characters had been fighting all the time, but it seemed like nothing had happened, leaving only the fact that their lives were constantly decreasing. Just like that, more than ten minutes passed, and the lives of the two characters suddenly lit up red.

"They're in the red!" Chen Guo shouted.

"Yes, the time to decide the winner has come. Watch carefully," Ye Xiu said.

The time to decide the winner had come.

The people at the scene who understood this principle were clearly not just Ye Xiu. In the professional player seats, everyone was holding their breath and watching intently.

The previous ten minutes were actually all a prelude. This final moment would be the climax, the only climax of the entire match, and also the end of the match.

One Autumn Leaf in the field suddenly withdrew after this first contact. At this crucial moment to decide the outcome, he changed his tactics and gave up blindly attacking. Relying on the high mobility of the Battle Mage, which was enhanced by the Chaser state and Battle Spirit, he began to move around, waiting for an opportunity, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.

What about Han Wenqing? At this final moment, he continued to carry out his relentless attacks to the end.

"Wow!!!" The silent audience suddenly erupted, screaming and applauding. After this change, in the eyes of these viewers who could not fully understand the situation, Han Wenqing suddenly gained a great advantage. Although the reason for the audience's eruption was wrong, it was still very appropriate. The climax of the match was indeed about to begin.

"Damn it, Sun Xiang, you coward!!!" Chen Guo was also shouting angrily at this time. She was not a neutral fan in this match. This time, she was 100% hoping that Sun Xiang would win. However, this was mainly out of support for the team. As for Sun Xiang, he had only been in Excellent Era for a short time, and Chen Guo had not yet become his brain-dead fan! Seeing him suddenly becoming timid, she immediately despised him with great dissatisfaction.

"Don't worry, watch slowly," Ye Xiu quickly advised.

"Look at that good-for-nothing!" Chen Guo shouted.

"I think he's playing quite calmly," Tang Rou, who had not participated in the discussion much, opened her mouth and said.

"Yes," Ye Xiu also nodded.

"Really? That's the best..." Chen Guo did not argue. She was nervous at this time, and after hearing that Sun Xiang was not actually going to lose like a coward, she was still quite relieved.

Attack, continue to attack!

At this crucial moment to decide the outcome, Han Wenqing seemed to still not know what caution or calmness were, and continued to attack wildly.

Collapsing Fist! Desert Dust swung his fist in a direct hit, and One Autumn Leaf, who had just landed, hurriedly rolled back.

Whirlwind Kick! Desert Dust chased forward, and in mid-air, he spun out a kick. The two skills were connected very quickly, but Sun Xiang's operation was even faster. One Autumn Leaf, who was already rolling backwards, did not get up at all, and then rolled sideways to the other side. This was just a basic action, but to achieve such a seamless connection between the two rolls was definitely not an easy task. If he couldn't do it, if there was a slight stumble between the two rolls, he would definitely be swept by that whirlwind kick.

Tiger Stance Soaring Palm!!!

Han Wenqing used a high-level skill again at a time when he had not created a very good opportunity. Desert Dust flew forward, raised his feet, and stepped towards One Autumn Leaf.

*Pfft!*

This time, even a seamless roll could not avoid it. Desert Dust's legs directly stomped on One Autumn Leaf's chest, directly knocking him over. Desert Dust, however, used the momentum of this stomp to leap behind One Autumn Leaf. In mid-air, he turned around again and stretched out his foot, preparing to completely finish off One Autumn Leaf with an Eagle Stamp. The damage of Tiger Stance Soaring Palm was not enough to kill, but adding a complete skill would be about right.

Everyone thought that the match was about to end at this moment. Chen Guo was almost about to curse, but then she saw One Autumn Leaf, who had been knocked over, roll backwards on the spot, performing a Ukemi (recovery) to avoid falling. Then, before his body had fully turned around, the battle lance Evil Annihilation had already been thrust out. A diagonal thrust was actually a Rising Dragon Strike.

Everyone was stunned. Rising Dragon Strike was the lowest-level skill of the Battle Mage, but this Rising Dragon Strike was almost performed with his back to his opponent. Relying on this perverted method, One Autumn Leaf snatched this attack and collided with Desert Dust's Eagle Stamp.

A downward stomp, an upward thrust.

The two skills collided, and the judgement was evenly matched. One Autumn Leaf was forced to slide back one position, and Desert Dust was also knocked back in mid-air.

Then, One Autumn Leaf retracted and lifted his battle lance. The dark Evil Annihilation rose like a dragon raising its head, and then a surge of magical power gathered on the lance. The Battle Mage was, after all, a mage by origin. His powerful combat power did not completely rely on strength, but also had a large amount of magical assistance.

Evil Annihilation thrust out, and the magical power gathered on the lance had condensed into a black dragon, roaring and stirring up the dust and debris on the ground, and pouncing towards Desert Dust.

Battle Mage Level 70's strongest move: Flying Dragon in the Sky! (Fu Long Xiang Tian)

Everyone once again thought that the victory had been decided. This time, Chen Guo was about to cheer.

Glory!!!

The words "Glory" were also displayed on the electronic screen.

But after seeing the dragon body transformed from Evil Annihilation in Flying Dragon in the Sky disappear, the players were surprised to find that Desert Dust was standing next to One Autumn Leaf.

The target hit by Flying Dragon in the Sky could never appear by his side, so there was no doubt that this Flying Dragon in the Sky had not hit.

The one who obtained Glory was Han Wenqing and his Desert Dust. One Autumn Leaf fell.
