Hu Die Lan
Chapter 1026 Couldn't Tell
The Battle Mage’s combo commentary and guests can explain a lot to everyone. But now, as soon as Lord Grim's offensive began, Pan Lin quickly spouted out skill names for a while, then gradually fell silent again. The same situation occurred twice in the same match for him: he couldn’t keep up with the pace of the battle, so he had to shut up.
Last time, Qiu Fei’s use of a new level 75 skill suddenly cut off Lord Grim’s combo, but this time, he couldn’t seem to find such an opportunity. Battle Format floated in mid-air, as if suspended. Lord Grim roamed around him, throwing various skills at him non-stop.
“Um… this…” Pan Lin felt he had to say something. He switched to Qiu Fei’s perspective for a while, then opened his mouth with some uncertainty: “He should be using a Zheyin Bu (shadow stepping)?”
“Yes, it’s Zheyin Bu,” Li Yibo said with much more confidence than Pan Lin.
However, after confirming this question, the two couldn’t help but look at each other. They both noticed that the atmosphere was a bit off.
Shouldn’t using a high-end technique like Zheyin Bu be considered a climax? Shouldn’t there be some passionate commentary?
But what about these two? At this time, they were both unusually calm. Because the person on the field was Ye Xiu. If an ordinary player used Zheyin Bu, it would be a climax, but if Ye Xiu used Zheyin Bu, wouldn’t that be as common as eating?
In fact, the two of them knew that thinking like that was a bit of an exaggeration. No matter who used Zheyin Bu, it couldn’t be as simple as eating. Zheyin Bu was like a program that required a CPU utilization rate of over 90% to run smoothly. Ye Xiu’s configuration was a bit higher, but there was a limit. Compared to the other great gods in the league, “on par” was the most accurate description.
But for some reason, when Ye Xiu used this kind of high-end technique, Pan Lin and Li Yibo would feel it was very ordinary. If it were another great god, Wang Jiexi, Huang Shaotian, or Zhou Zekai, no matter who, Pan Lin would probably shout until his throat was sore.
This was influence.
In the minds of those who had been in contact with Glory for a long time, there was an unshakable, powerful figure, and Ye Xiu was undoubtedly that figure. To the point that even though what he did was very unusual, people demanded higher standards of him, and the unusual became ordinary.
It was just Zheyin Bu.
If you dared to say such a thing casually, you would probably have your face slapped swollen by tens of millions of Glory players.
But when Ye Xiu’s name was added to those words, it suddenly became easier to understand.
It was based on this mentality that Ye Xiu used Zheyin Bu, and Pan Lin and Li Yibo remained calm. At this time, the director switched the screen to Qiu Fei’s perspective, waiting for them to explain this wonderful moment well.
“Yes, Zheyin Bu. Ye Xiu is now using a very high-end technique in Glory, Zheyin Bu. We are now showing Qiu Fei’s perspective. Everyone can see that from Qiu Fei’s perspective, Lord Grim’s figure has never appeared. Huh?”
Pan Lin was in the middle of saying this when Lord Grim’s figure suddenly appeared in Qiu Fei’s perspective.
“Opportunity!” Pan Lin suddenly became passionate and shouted loudly.
The broadcast screen quickly switched back to the overall battle: Battle Format was suspended in mid-air, Lord Grim moved around him, attacking non-stop… The situation didn’t change at all.
“Oh, what a pity!” Pan Lin sighed, thinking that Qiu Fei hadn’t grasped the opportunity. Li Yibo coughed twice on the side, but it wasn’t convenient for him to go up and remind him, as they were still broadcasting!
The opportunity that Pan Lin spoke of just now wasn’t actually an opportunity at all. The principle of Zheyin Bu is to find the opponent’s blind spot to attack the target. Here, hitting the target is the ultimate goal, and entering the opponent’s blind spot is only to serve this purpose. So when you can easily hit the opponent, there is naturally no need to go to the trouble of finding a blind spot to launch an attack.
Lord Grim only flashed for a moment in Qiu Fei’s perspective because the attack he made at that time didn’t need to be hidden in any blind spot.
So that was it!
If he hadn’t looked at Qiu Fei’s main perspective, Li Yibo wouldn’t have noticed this. After noticing this, Li Yibo was greatly shocked. He didn’t know to what extent Ye Xiu had achieved this. Continuously using Zheyin Bu is a very tiring thing. If it could be used in this way, it would undoubtedly help the player save a lot of operation and energy, but at the same time, it requires the player to have more precise awareness and judgment.
Li Yibo was sure that no professional player had yet reached this level of Zheyin Bu control. Li Yibo felt that what he had just seen was just a coincidence where Ye Xiu made a choice. If it was really intentional, then it would be too terrifying. Ye Xiu was already at the end of his professional career, yet his technical skill was still improving. Just thinking about it was terrifying.
In an instant, Li Yibo suddenly felt that the broadcast room was a bit gloomy.
“Opportunity!” Just then, Li Yibo heard Pan Lin shout out in regret again, and because he had completely lost his focus, he didn’t know what had just happened at all. He didn’t want to ask, so he could only follow up with, “It’s a pity, he shouldn’t have missed this.”
“That’s right, Qiu Fei has already missed two good opportunities,” Pan Lin said.
Two times?
Li Yibo was stunned for a moment, then reacted. Pan Lin still thought that Lord Grim’s appearance during the Zheyin Bu was Ye Xiu’s mistake and Qiu Fei’s opportunity! At this time, he didn’t want to point it out, but he also didn’t want the knowledgeable people in front of the TV to think that he, Li Yibo, was nothing more than that, and couldn’t even see this.
He was conflicted in his heart, but he heard Pan Lin counting Lord Grim’s combo count, reporting the skill names. Pan Lin couldn’t keep up with the rhythm, but counting was especially smooth. One, two, three, four, five…
Wait, one, two, three, four, five? Why did he start counting the combo again from the beginning?
Li Yibo missed too many things because he was distracted. He hadn’t figured this out yet, but Pan Lin was already shouting, “Ah! It’s broken, opportunity, opportunity, opportunity, opportunity… Sigh, what is Qiu Fei doing!”
Pan Lin’s tone was annoyed, but Li Yibo was now seriously watching the game screen. Lord Grim’s continuous attack had indeed been interrupted just now, but Qiu Fei had not taken the opportunity to counterattack.
“This is too inappropriate,” Li Yibo commented. “Although Qiu Fei is also a player with no formal competition experience, he should have the awareness to seize this kind of opportunity, but from Battle Format’s actions, I can’t see that he has this ambition.”
“Yes, from being counterattacked by Ye Xiu until now, Qiu Fei has missed three opportunities to regain the situation. It seems that this young player is still too young, and his formation has been disrupted by Ye Xiu’s wave of counterattacks!”
“It’s not easy to adjust your state at this time.”
“Yes, yes!” Pan Lin nodded repeatedly.
Liu Xiaobie, one of the three Tiny Herb players watching the game far away in the audience, was watching the holographic projection of the battle while wearing headphones, but at this time, he tore off the headphones with a look of disdain: “What nonsense are these guys talking about?”
“What’s wrong?” Xu Bin turned his head and asked. Liu Xiaobie disliked the Jia Shi fans for being too noisy, so he put on headphones, watching the live game while listening to the commentary of this game on his phone. As a result, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he heard these two guys analyze the current situation.
“Those two guys! They said that Qiu Fei missed three opportunities,” Liu Xiaobie said.
“Three opportunities? Which three?” Xu Bin was very confused.
“The first time was when they switched to the main perspective earlier, and Lord Grim’s figure flashed. They thought this was because Ye Xiu’s Zheyin Bu wasn’t operated well, and it was an opportunity,” Liu Xiaobie said.
“That… wasn’t that because there was no need to use Zheyin Bu to launch an attack?” Xu Bin said.
“Exactly? There were also the two fake combos just now. They thought the combos were interrupted and it should have been an opportunity to counterattack,” Liu Xiaobie said.
Even Gao Yingjie’s eyes widened, obviously feeling incredulous about this view.
Xu Bin just smiled when he heard these two points: “It’s normal that they can’t see it with their level.”
“But they don’t think so,” Liu Xiaobie said.
“So, why are you listening to the live commentary? Isn’t it clearer to watch it yourself?” Xu Bin said.
“The problem is that these guys are too noisy,” Liu Xiaobie said.
“It’s not too noisy right now, is it?” Xu Bin smiled.
Of course, it wasn’t too noisy right now. Ye Xiu’s counterattack was successful, and the wave of attacks hadn’t ended yet. Seeing Battle Format’s health continuously dropping, the Glory fans were all extremely anxious.
“I really don’t know what they’re expecting. Do they really expect this newbie to defeat Ye Qiu… uh, Ye Xiu?” Liu Xiaobie said.
“As long as it’s a competition, nothing is impossible!” Xu Bin said.
“But at least don’t have such high expectations!” Liu Xiaobie said.
“I say, you seem to have high expectations for Excellent Era defeating Jia Shi too, right? According to your theory, you shouldn’t have such high expectations!” Xu Bin said.
“I didn’t…” Liu Xiaobie’s defense was very weak. “Xiao Gao, what do you say?”
“What do you want him to say?” Xu Bin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Liu Xiaobie’s topic change was illogical, right?
“He’s actually very strong.” In the end, Gao Yingjie actually said a sentence.
“Are you talking about that Qiu Fei?” Liu Xiaobie said.
“Does the fact that Great God Ye Qiu is very strong need to be pointed out specifically?” Xu Bin complained.
“It’s Ye Xiu,” Liu Xiaobie corrected.
Xu Bin smiled. Ye Xiu was still Ye Qiu. The name was just a title and didn’t matter at all. He didn’t care and was still used to calling him Ye Qiu.
“This young man…” Liu Xiaobie was now listening to Gao Yingjie’s evaluation and began to seriously consider this question. “He’s very strong,” he said, nodding. “I think he will be your future rival.”
“He already is now,” Gao Yingjie said.
“Let’s see how he deals with the current situation first!” Liu Xiaobie said.
“If it were you, how would you deal with it?” Xu Bin asked.
Liu Xiaobie didn’t answer, and Xu Bin didn’t continue to ask. In fact, the three of them had already been weighing it in their hearts. If they were on the field, what would they do in this situation?
