MMO: Pierce Heaven Til' It Breaks
Chapter 623. All The Special Skills
The tournament followed a ‘best-out-of-three’ format. Since Shoot Until Daybreak had voluntarily surrendered in the first round, he did not do anything in the second round. Instead, he chose to jump off the stage and give up after a long period of contemplation.
Since he could not think of a way to contain Ah Ye’s abilities, he made the decision to not fight in vain.
Jiaojiao asked Li Yi, “If Ah Ye had not willingly surrendered just now, would we have lost as well?”
“I have no idea.”
The match between Ah Ye and Shoot Until Daybreak had ended, and one of them had advanced to the next stage. The other contestants continued to draw lots, and soon the second pair that would fight in the upcoming match was decided.
Jiaojiao and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth!
Jiaojiao rubbed her palms together excitedly, looking just about ready to give it a go immediately. “Haha, that guy is pretty mediocre, I have total confidence in defeating him.”
Li Yi put a wet blanket over Jiaojiao’s enthusiasm. “He’s equipped his entire being with items with special effects. You might not end up being the winner in this match.”
“Sure, why didn’t I notice how great he can be in the previous Team Match? You must be boasting.”
“It’s up to you whether you want to believe me. The bottom line is, don’t cry after you’ve lost. Oh also, remember to come to my room tonight…”
Jiaojiao was already lugging her greatsword to enter the arena. She received the enthusiastic cheers from countless players from the Invincible Continent the moment she appeared on stage. Her popularity had ascended extraordinary heights after being their Queen for such a long period of time.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had gone up the stage as well. In contrast to the Team Match, he had changed the weapon that he held in his hand from a double blade to Lola’s Ice Crystal Sword.
Lola’s Ice Crystal Sword, a rare Level 100 Purple Equipment. It had a unique attack effect that granted a 5% probability of freezing the target during a melee attack.
Li Yi sent a private message to Jiaojiao. “Be careful, that weapon of his has an additional Freeze effect. Use your Dark Charge and only engage with him with ranged attacks. Don’t ever go melee with him.”
“Alright, alright.”
Li Yi was quite surprised that the Lil Chili did not retort this time around.
Gong! Gong!
The crash of the Gong reverberated through the arena, signaling the start of the match.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth immediately used Charge to get close to Jiaojiao. Meanwhile, Jiaojiao used Dark Binding to stop Tyrant Sword King the Fifth halfway through his advancement against her.
“Dark Charge!”
Jiaojiao swung her greatsword and had hit so hard that a pitch-black impact wave was seen emanating from her sword before crashing right into Tyrant Sword King the Fifth.
Even though Dark Paladins did not know how to Charge, they possessed quite a unique and comprehensive set of skills. Aside from the godlike skill Death’s Grasp, they could also utilize powerful ranged attacks that had a short to medium range. This fact alone gave them a leg up compared to ordinary Warriors.
[-3233]
A damage value appeared above Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s head. He raised the Ice Sword in his hand and gave it a brief swing. A puff of black smoke rose from the surface of his body, indicating that the effects of Dark Binding had been dispelled. This was the special skill Dark Devour!
Li Yi clearly saw the proceedings of the match from below the stage. A chuckle immediately slipped past his lips as he could not help but laugh at the situation.
Ah, so this dude was the one that had bought his Trickery Ring.
“That’s 50 million. This is amazing!’
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth kept Charging at Jiaojiao fiercely with his Ice Sword in tow. Jiaojaio activated Dark Charge to retreat while she continued to attack him. This time, she did not go against Li Yi’s advice but followed his instructions completely in combat.
“Vine Entanglement!”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth stretched out one of his arms and shouted. Immediately, vines grew from underneath Jiaojiao’s feet to bind her to one place.
This was Faded Cloud Breeze’s special skill equipment that he had borrowed right before the match.
“Undying Body!”
Jiaojiao tried to cast a special skill but received a System Notification instead. [You cannot use any skills or special skills in this state.]
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth rushed towards her and gave Jiaojiao a Gale Slash to the head. Then, he started to spin his body to use Blade Storm.
Crack crack! Crack! Crack!
Jiaojiao’s body alternated between freezing and shattering from the impact. The Ice Sword’s special effect was triggered repeatedly due to the Blade Storm’s combo hits, causing the probability of the effect to rocket so high that the Freeze effect was triggered almost every two spins.
By shattering a frozen target, twice the amount of damage would be inflicted upon the target!
“How could that Blade Storm of his last so long? Has it been 15 seconds? 20 seconds?”
“That’s too long, he must’ve gotten some sort of equipment that had boosted the effect of his skills!”
Surprised gasps were heard from below the stage.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s Blade Storm lasted much longer than any other ordinary Weapon Warriors. It lasted almost 20 seconds, causing a total of 20 combo hits…
After the Blade Storm, Jiaojiao was left with just around 10,000HP. She was just a hair’s breadth away from being killed on the spot by one of his skills.
However, her torment was yet to end. Right when Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s Blade Storm has ended and Jiaojiao was still trapped in a one-second hit recovery, the man had suddenly jumped high from the ground. His body was enveloped by a brilliant gold light, he had held onto his sword and pierced at her from above…
“Silver Gleam Falling Blades!”
The Ice Sword pierced through Jiaojiao and caused an impact wave so strong that she was thrown up into the sky.
“Nukitsuke!”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth kept the Ice Sword and abruptly swept at the area around him in a circle. This had completely emptied out what was left of Jiaojiao’s HP.
KO!
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was the winner of the first round.
Jiaojiao stood and quickly went to Li Yi for help. “Lil Yi’zi, I’m going to lose the match soon. Boohoo, I don’t want to lose this. Quick, help me think of a way to get out of this predicament.”
“What idea would I have? You will never be able to defeat him unless you can escape the Vine Entanglement.”
Jiaojiao was getting agitated. “How should I evade it? How?”
“Mmm… Tonight…”
“You can do whatever you want, hmph.”
“Vine Entanglement is only effective within a 15-yard radius. Besides, it has a 1-second casting time whenever it is activated. If you can run away and stay at least 15 yards away during the casting time…”
Jiaojiao was overjoyed. “Hahaha, that is a great idea, a great move indeed.”
“It’s too early to celebrate. Tyrant Sword King the Fifth has more than one special skill on him. I suspect that he might have bought all of my equipment…”
“Your equipment? Which equipment are you talking about?”
Li Yi gave Jiaojiao a basic rundown. Even though he might be secretive towards others, but he would never keep anything from Jiaojiao.
“You you you… I’m so pissed at you I could die.” Jiaojiao was a hair’s breadth away from jumping off the stage and using her deadly scissor legs on Li Yi after she heard what he said.
Jiaojiao pulled at her hair while she was still standing on stage. “Don’t even talk to me about tonight, I won’t let you anywhere near me from now on. I’m losing, and it’s all your fault. Waaaaaaaah…”
The audience below the stage was dumbfounded. All of them were confused. What crazy act was Queen Jiao pulling now…?
No matter how badly Jiaojiao had ‘hated’ Li Yi, the second round still started 5 minutes later.
Once again, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth Charged forward instantly. However, Jiaojiao did not try to stop him in his tracks with Dark Binding this time. Instead, she had activated Rocket Propellant and moved horizontally to her side.
Boom!
Jiaojiao failed to successfully move horizontally but was instead thrown up to the sky by an explosion. Rocket Propellant had malfunctioned.
There was a difference as stark as heaven and earth between the Engineering level of Jiaojiao and Li Yi. When Li Yi used Rocket Propellant, the probability of it malfunctioning was so slim that it could be ignored entirely. However, that was not the case for her. She would experience malfunctions at least 5 out of the 10 times she used Rocket Propellant.
“You threw me under the bus, and it’s your fault that I’m suffering badly!”
Jiaojiao did not forget to send Li Yi a private message that was brimming with resentment when she was thrown high in the air.
“Silver Gleam Falling Blades!”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth made a leaping pierce with his sword the moment Jiaojiao crash-landed onto the ground. Once again, her body was thrown high into the air.
“Blade Storm!”
The spinning blade skill made ceaseless combo hits onto Jiaojiao’s body while it was still in the air. The Freeze state was triggered more often this time around, and when Jiaojiao finally landed onto the ground again…
KO!
The match had ended…
After losing both rounds, Queen Jiao was eliminated.
JIaojiao was resurrected right there and then but did not speak even after she left the stage. Instead, she went to sit by Li Yi’s side and gently rested her face against his chest. Suddenly, she bit into him with all her might…
Li Yi did not even react to that.
Jiaojiao was so furious that the fire in her eyes was inches away from flowing out to set him on fire. “D*mn it, you’ve actually set your pain sensory to 0.”
Jiaojiao had lost in the match in the Top 6 Qualifiers. Thus, she had only received a consolation prize in the Brawl Tournament this time around, where she could use the Brawl King title for one year.
“This was such an unsatisfying defeat! Lil Yizi, you must avenge me by defeating him in the cruelest and abusive way possible.”
“Of course!”
A resounding scream of terror was heard from underneath the stage. The situation was vastly different from the last match; before Jiaojiao and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had fought against each other, many among the crowd had looked favorably at Jiaojiao and had bet that she would win the match. When she lost the match, the players that had high hopes for her had lost as well…
“I’m going to cry until I die…”
“Look at the tears in my eyes!”
Amidst the anguished howl of the players, the names for the third match was announced.
Unending Unmatched and Amber Sword Heart!
“F*ck me, how did they somehow meet each other again?”
“During the Team Match, it seemed like Amber Sword Heart had the upper hand. I think Amber Sword Heart will probably win the match.”
“Are you stupid? Quite a number of them did not show their true abilities in the Team Match. Who’s Unending Unmatched? He’s the No.1 godlike main tank in the Invincible Continent, the king of the Arena! His defeat is practically impossible!”
“I’ll bet on Unending Unmatched!”
“I’ll bet on Amber Sword Heart!”
Both of the godlike main tanks had their own loyal supporters. Thus, before the third match even began, the situation below the stage was already getting rowdy.
What’s the most impressive looking class in a dungeon?
Not the fragile DPS player that would die immediately after being touched by monsters, nor the healer that hid behind the team to heal. Instead, it was the main tank, the person who could withstand the attacks of dozens of monsters at once, standing strong against all adversities.
“Unmatched, good luck!”
“Sword Heart, good luck!”
Cheers roared loudly from below the stage. It was so intense that blessed silence was only granted when the match had officially started, and the system muted all other noises.
When two melee classes fought against each other, the fight was not just a simple exchange of blows, it also relied on skillful positioning. The fighter who was agile and could shift their position effectively would suffer from fewer attacks, and thus directly increase their probability of winning the match.
Unending Unmatched immediately went forward with a Charge to slam and Disorient Amber Sword Heart. With two quick slashes, he managed to take over 1000 HP off Amber Sword Heart before quickly running behind his opponent.
The defenses of a main tank’s front were almost too overpowered to be considered normal. Double damage could only be inflicted onto a main tank if the hit was done from behind.
Amber Sword Heart turned and swung his shield to block the attack. Unending Unmatched took a few involuntary steps backward from the impact.
Ssshing!
Wham!
Ssshing!
The battle of the two godly main tanks actually happened with no skills from both sides. Instead, they mainly evaded each other and attacked with ordinary slashes.
The person that could agilely change their position could reduce the number of attacks taken, and the reason that they only used ordinary slashes in their attacks was that they were busy accumulating Fury in the fight.
“Amplification!”
“Amplification!”
Unending Unmatched and Amber Sword Heart had both reached 100 points of Fury at almost the same time. Thus, both of them had simultaneously cast Amplification and slammed their huge shield into each other.
Clang!
Clang!
Both of their shields slammed into each other, and both players had suffered a loss of HP at the same time. They each staggered backward from the impact before charging against each other again.
Clang! Clang!
Similar clashes happened three times in a row, entirely depleting the 100 Fury points for both players. Then, both of them continued to shift positions and hack at each other with ordinary slashes to accumulate more Fury.
Neither of them had gained the upper hand even after a few rounds of similar clashes.
Jiaojiao was getting slightly nervous. “Lil Yizi, who do you think will win the match?”
“Who do you hope to be the winner of the match?”
“That’s a nonsensical question. Of course, it’s Unmatched! I’m not even that close with Amber Sword Heart.”
“Unmatched has lost.”
Jiaojiao was astonished. “Why?”
Clang!
Right at that moment, Unending Unmatched held his shield in hand and heaved it upwards, causing Amber Sword Heart to fall back from the impact.
“Heroic Strike, Muscle Rupture!”
Unending Unmatched started a combo hit towards Amber Sword Heart.
1 combo hit! 2 combo hits! 3 combo hits! 4 combo hits! 5 combo hits!
“Thunder’s Wrath!”
Unending Unmatched used all 100 points of his Fury and slashed at Amber Sword Heart with a lightning-wrapped sword in his hand…
