Chapter 142: 123: A Favor for a Grown-up! Number One in Jiangbei!_2
"Boom!"
Li Yuan, on the other hand, was fiercely aggressive, his long spear like a dragon, striking at Tian Dazhuang like lightning again and again.
The Stellar Spear Technique was best at defense, particularly against being besieged or facing stronger opponents.
Stellar, flawless, stable, and vast.
Defensively impregnable, and when attacking, it was overwhelmingly powerful, fierce and aggressive. There wasn\'t much variation, but its aim was to sweep and crush, to completely shatter any opponents in front.
...
In the virtual network, the Starry Skies Fighting Network hosted a very special area that normal people could not access.
Here, there were two individuals.
One wore a white robe, the other, a black robe.
In front of them was a holographic projection showcasing the scene of Li Yuan and Tian Dazhuang\'s bout.
"Tian Dazhuang, a key talent cultivated by Starfire University this year, is actually not a match for this Li Yuan?" the person in the white robe said softly, "His spear technique is really good."
"Yes, the Stellar Spear Technique. Li Yuan has already grasped its true essence," the person in the black robe said slowly, "Not even eighteen, and he\'s at the high rank of the Fourth Level."
"And according to his information, he reached the Fallen Star level only in March. "
"In less than five months, he rushed from stepping into the Fourth Level all the way to high rank?" the person in the white robe said in surprise, "A student from Kunlun Martial University?"
"Yes," the person in the black robe laughed softly, "It seems that Xia Country has seen the rise of an extraordinary genius."
The two of them.
Were Xia Country\'s \'Observers\' at the Starry Skies Fighting Network, watching a large number of battles daily and marking certain combatants as noteworthy.
"Look at that."
"Oh!" exclaimed the person in the white robe suddenly, "It looks like Tian Dazhuang is about to lose. It\'s quite impressive that he\'s managed to hold on for so long."
...
In the combat arena, Li Yuan and Tian Dazhuang had reached an intensely heated stage of the fight.
"Clang!"
"Bang~" "Pong~" The long spear and the broadsword collided over and over, with Li Yuan clearly in the dominant position.
In terms of burst strength, speed, and skill, Li Yuan held the advantage.
The spear also had a certain advantage in an open field like the arena for hand-to-hand combat.
An inch longer, an inch stronger.
But Tian Dazhuang\'s movement technique was excellent, moving again and again with simple yet highly effective steps, constantly evading Li Yuan\'s fierce attacks.
"Delay."
"His movement technique is not as good as mine; look for an opportunity," Tian Dazhuang thought to himself, being a combat genius, quickly realizing this during the fight.
"Even if I can\'t win, I can still hone my sword technique," he thought to himself, fully engaged in the struggle.
"Interesting."
"Speaking of movement technique alone, I am indeed slightly inferior to Tian Dazhuang," Li Yuan revealed with a smile, "I\'ve invested too much thought into my spear technique."
In the Dragon Movement Technique? Li Yuan hardly practiced it deliberately, only incidentally as part of his training with punches and spears.
The less one practices, the lower the skill level naturally.
Li Yuan\'s great improvement in spear technique in such a short time was also related to the time and effort he spent.
"Such a fight."
"Is also great practice for my own movement technique," Li Yuan did not employ his true killing moves.
After dozens of exchanges, Li Yuan saw that Tian Dazhuang\'s sword technique had not reached the high rank of the Fourth Level.
His grasp on actual combat seemed to fall short compared to Li Yuan\'s, and in overall strength, there was indeed a gap.
Li Yuan, first out of respect for this friend,
And second, to properly refine his own movement technique,
Did not fully unleash his power.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
The two fought fiercely, but not just for sheer victory; it was more for honing their own weaknesses.
As their strength was depleting, both were running low on stamina, and the speed of their moves gradually declined.
In the virtual combat network, everything was a simulation of reality.
Whether it was bleeding from an injury or fighting for too long, it would affect the performance of one\'s strength.
"Something\'s not right."
"It\'s true that my movement technique is slightly stronger, but his body control is clearly better than mine, and his burst speed is even faster. The arena is only so big; he definitely has the opportunity to crush and kill me," Tian Dazhuang realized, "And furthermore, he doesn\'t seem to have ever used his spear technique\'s finishing move."
A high rank in the Fourth Level with no knowledge of spear technique finishers? Is that possible?
"Li Yuan\'s strength is a cut above mine; he hasn\'t fully erupted. Does he want to sharpen his movement technique?" Tian Dazhuang sighed inwardly, "Is he already so much stronger than me?"
"Well."
"Regardless, I\'ll give it my all in this fight," Tian Dazhuang quickly adjusted his mindset, no longer pursuing \'victory,\' but instead aiming for pure combat.
To enjoy this battle.
"Boom!" Li Yuan\'s long spear suddenly quickened, unleashing the \'Galaxy Waterfall\'s\' Twelve Continuous Strikes, with the speed of the spear shadow skyrocketing instantly.
"Clang!"
"Clang! Clang!" The collisions were like lightning strikes.
Tian Dazhuang felt wave after wave of overwhelming force barraging him, barely able to withstand it.
"Kill!" Instead of retreating, Tian Dazhuang became even more ferocious, launching an offensive as an answer to the offensive, fully demonstrating his accomplishments in the sword technique.
Tian Dazhuang, a farm boy who walked out from the mountains and rose all the way to Starfire University, was propelled by his absolute talent and cool judgement.
Earning him the high expectations of countless people.
In this moment, facing Li Yuan\'s tempest-like spear attacks, Tian Dazhuang, under immense pressure, became ever more composed inside.
Gradually.
Tian Dazhuang entered a unique state, where he felt his sword technique becoming smoother and each strike he delivered was much faster and more forceful.
"High Rank of the Fourth Level."
"The Golden Cleaving Blade Technique\'s fourth form, \'Mountain-splitting Sea-cleaving,\'" Tian Dazhuang had an epiphany, finally glimpsing the hope of breaking through the bottleneck that had confined him for so long.
His blade became faster.
"Did he break through?"
