Chapter 134 Cross Cut!

The floral afterimages of the Burial Flower Heavy Sword hadn't completely faded when Yu Feng executed another attack. Falling Flowers in Disorder shook his wrist, the heavy sword moving only slightly, yet executing a horizontal slice and a vertical slash. Hai Wu Liang, still airborne, was accurately struck, the spurting blood forming a perfect cross.

Then came a Destruction Slash, dealing damage while simultaneously lowering the target's defense. As a qigong master, with his cloth armor, his physical defense wasn't great to begin with. After being hit with the Destruction Slash, the ensuing barrage of attacks rapidly whittled away his health.

Was this single strike enough to determine the victor?

Yu Feng concentrated fully on his attack, knowing he was facing an all-star opponent and couldn't afford the slightest opening. Moreover, combos weren't just about sequentially using skills; they required careful consideration of the situation. Terrain, distance, the opponent's class, and the opponent's reactions all influenced the skill selection and timing. The reason Glory had thrived for so many years was precisely because of its complex and ever-changing nature.

But now, Yu Feng made incredibly accurate judgments with every strike, executing flawlessly. A perfect berserker combo left Hai Wu Liang tumbling and struggling in the air.

Yu Feng's berserker didn't possess the wild abandon of the old Sun Zheping, but it was more precise, more meticulous. Each had their strengths, and the debate over who was superior was a matter of opinion.

The combo shaved off seventy or eighty percent of Hai Wu Liang's already halved health, leaving him with just over a tenth remaining, one step away from entering red health.

Bosses in red health had ultimate moves, but for players, red health was merely a signal of danger. Fortunately, it seemed Yu Feng's combo was reaching its end.

He still had some health left; surely he could mount some kind of counterattack?

The audience held their breath for Fang Rui. If he was truly defeated by Yu Feng like this, his advantage of winning half-health against Zhou Guangyi would be completely wasted.

On the Hundred Blossoms' player bench, however, spirits lifted.

This was the example set by the captain, the moment when a core player boosted morale.

"Captain, add oil!" Knowing Yu Feng couldn't hear, a rookie player still shouted the slogan. Although it was instantly drowned out by the noise of the home crowd, his face showed no sign of discouragement. Yu Feng's performance had excited everyone on the Hundred Blossoms team.

"This guy, he's not really going to lose like this, is he?" Ye Xiu said with some regret.

One rose, the other fell.

While the Hundred Blossoms team was encouraged by Yu Feng's performance, Happy would suffer a blow to their morale for losing such a good start.

"No, he won't, he definitely won't," Chen Guo said, shaking her head. She wasn't very familiar with Fang Rui and didn't know him well. She was simply relying on her own wishes to believe so strongly.

"The combo's already broken," Chen Guo stated.

Ye Xiu smiled wryly.

The combo had indeed been interrupted, but that didn't mean the attack had stopped. The combo break was just a system judgment, but looking at the timing of the break and the distance between the characters, Ye Xiu knew that if he wanted to pad his combo stats, he could squeeze in another two or three hits. But the combo had been stopped at this point, indicating that the player had deliberately given up. Clearly, Yu Feng wasn't trying to farm stats; he wanted to win the match.

So he abandoned the chance to continue the combo, believing that he now had an opportunity to directly kill Hai Wu Liang. Yu Feng was already a qualified captain, a qualified core player. He was no longer just considering his own win or loss but wanted to increase the chances of the entire team winning through his battle. Therefore, he wanted to maximize the team's morale at the moment of his appearance.

Falling Flowers in Disorder held the sword with both hands, point down.

How was he going to attack? To be honest, even Ye Xiu couldn't see it. Hai Wu Liang was falling to the ground, and everyone was focused on what Fang Rui would do next. However, Ye Xiu was watching Falling Flowers in Disorder because he knew Yu Feng's attack wasn't over yet. Holding the heavy sword upside down, using a Raging Blood Berserker Wave would save a little time, but directly attacking with this ultimate move didn't seem to guarantee a hit, did it?

Hai Wu Liang landed, naturally performing a recovery roll. However, instead of retreating, Hai Wu Liang advanced, closing in on Falling Flowers in Disorder's position.

Everyone was stunned…

Breaking the combo was already difficult; wouldn't rolling over like this be like sending himself into the enemy's blade?

But just as the roll was ending, Hai Wu Liang waved his hand and unleashed a palm strike.

Qi Bullet!

It was heading straight for Falling Flowers in Disorder's face.

"Oh…"

The audience let out a collective sigh of realization, showing how impressive Fang Rui's two performances against Zhou Guangyi had been. Now, seeing Hai Wu Liang suddenly firing a Qi Bullet, they immediately thought…

Intercept Pulse, Qi Gong Detonation, is that it?

The audience was completely excited.

Too naive…

Yu Feng was calm at this moment but couldn't help but mentally complain. Using the same trick that he had used on Zhou Guangyi twice, did Fang Rui really expect to succeed again? Fang Rui, you're really underestimating me! But unfortunately, I already anticipated that you would do this because, in fact, you have no choice, do you? With the qigong master, you simply don't have enough skilled techniques to deal with this level of combat.

"Go back and work harder!"

At this crucial moment, Yu Feng actually typed a sentence in the chat, making one wonder if everyone from Blue Rain was infected with some kind of quirk.

Qi Bullet?

Falling Flowers in Disorder was ready to unleash his ultimate move. His body tilted forward, preparing to exert force. This slight duck avoided the Qi Bullet completely. His vision wasn't obstructed at all.

So he clearly saw Hai Wu Liang's actions.

His arms shook. This was… Steel Bones, a low-level skill before the boxer's job advancement.

What excellent calculation!

Yu Feng couldn't help but commend him. Fang Rui clearly didn't believe that repeating the same trick would work, so this time, he added a little flourish. Knowing that he couldn't win, he just wanted to take some of Falling Flowers in Disorder's health. So, at the moment the Qi Bullet was fired, obscuring Yu Feng's vision, he activated Steel Bones.

Steel Bones increased defense and provided a super armor state.

Fang Rui knew Hai Wu Liang's health was low. At this point, charging in and engaging in a head-on collision with Falling Flowers in Disorder would allow the latter to take him down. So this time, Steel Bones became the core skill for his sneak attack. By relying on this skill to withstand unexpected damage, he would naturally have the opportunity to deal the satisfactory output he wanted.

But since I've seen through it, would I still give you a chance?

He opened Steel Bones. A single Raging Blood Berserker Wave couldn't kill him instantly, but…

Falling Flowers in Disorder leaned forward and roared. Instantly, his eyes and exposed skin turned blood red. The skill, Berserk, had cooled down. Yu Feng activated Berserk at this moment. With this state buffing him, directly killing Hai Wu Liang with a Raging Blood Berserker Wave was no longer a problem.

Fang Rui had clearly discovered that his trick had been exposed, but now he was in a difficult situation. The attack range of Raging Blood Berserker Wave was quite large. Hai Wu Liang had already rushed to this position and had no way to escape the attack's coverage. He could only continue charging forward. But facing a one-hit kill attack, would he still have a chance to deal damage?

Not many people could clearly see the current situation. The audience was excited, convinced that Fang Rui was about to succeed again—Intercept Pulse, Qi Gong Detonation, blasting away his opponent!

Intercept Pulse? How much damage could that do?

Yu Feng thought, and the Burial Flower Greatsword had already transformed into a bloody blade, chopping down. The blood energy filled the air, and Hai Wu Liang in the middle had already begun to lose health, but the climax of the damage had not yet arrived.

The audience was instantly silent. Everyone could see that Hai Wu Liang seemed to be in a passive position.

But Hai Wu Liang still stubbornly charged forward, with his health rapidly dwindling.

Was there still time?

The audience held their breath, and even professional players with more precise calculation abilities couldn't estimate whether Hai Wu Liang could still hit Falling Flowers in Disorder.

In the midst of the boiling blood energy, Hai Wu Liang's right hand finally touched Falling Flowers in Disorder.

It was too late!

The audience sighed. Hai Wu Liang's health at this moment had clearly reached zero.

But at this moment, Falling Flowers in Disorder's clothes were as if they had been infused with a strong airflow, instantly fluttering violently.

Qi Gong Detonation!

Hai Wu Liang's life had already been exhausted, but his damage output continued. Qi Gong Detonation, directly Qi Gong Detonation. Fang Rui decisively didn't use Intercept Pulse to amplify the damage.

Yu Feng's expression turned slightly ugly.

However, it was just the damage from one ultimate move… Although not perfect, it was still acceptable.

But immediately after, the deduction of Falling Flowers in Disorder's health greatly exceeded his expectations.

One-fifth!

This Qi Gong Detonation directly dealt one-fifth of his health, even stronger than his Raging Blood Berserker Wave, and this was a Raging Blood Berserker Wave under Berserk.

Wait… Berserk state?

Yu Feng suddenly realized something.

At this moment, he saw Fang Rui's answer to his sentence on the screen: "You too."

Go back and work harder!

Yu Feng meant that Fang Rui's qigong master wasn't skilled enough.

But Fang Rui said, "You too…"

Yu Feng knew that he had fallen into a trap after all.

Berserk state enhanced all offensive abilities, but greatly reduced defensive power.

Fang Rui used Steel Bones to bait out his Berserk. Thus, he didn't need to use any Intercept Pulse, because the current Berserk had already given him a damage buff that was satisfactory enough.

So the Qi Gong Detonation directly went off, taking away one-fifth of Falling Flowers in Disorder's health under the self-defense weakening effect of the Berserk state.

Yu Feng had won this match. But in this final moment of confrontation, he was utterly defeated. The skill he used himself had become an assist for his opponent.

"How truly despicable…" Yu Feng sighed.
