Chapter 454: Step by step, falling into the abyss!

"Too strong."

Hiding behind a large tree, Zhang Yucheng felt his throat tighten and couldn't help but speak.

He couldn't even see the movements of the two.

He only heard a series of clashing sounds of metal, and Li Yao constantly darting and flickering in the air.

"I've only seen people fight across tiers, but I've never seen anyone cross several tiers. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it no matter what."

Zhang Yucheng dared to assert:

If he were to join the battlefield of the two, he wouldn't even be able to hold on for a second!

The strength gap between the three wasn't large; facing absolute speed, Hunting Xi Xia couldn't use her skills, and he would be no exception.

"With this kind of level gap, no one can muster a shred of fighting spirit. Only Li Yao-kun can reach this step."

Jiutiao Meise looked at Zhang Yucheng and said lightly: "I advise you not to take Li Yao-kun as an opponent. One moment of carelessness, and your Dao heart will be damaged."

Zhang Yucheng was stunned, then gave a bitter laugh.

"Miss Meise is right. I really thought too much before."

Witnessing this battle,

Zhang Yucheng completely recognized the gap between himself and Li Yao.

He no longer regarded him as a peer to chase, but as a guide for the younger generation.

As long as he followed Li Yao's path, closely behind him,

his sword

would eventually have a use!

With his thoughts clear, Zhang Yucheng's sword sheath emitted a dull sword hum.

A radiance covered him; Zhang Yucheng's eyes were clear, and there was no more confusion in them!

Seeing this scene, Jiutiao Meise couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Did he comprehend a skill?"

"Dragon Nation prodigies are truly hard to fathom."

The evolved Zhang Yucheng looked at the battlefield again, his vision much clearer, discovering many things he hadn't noticed before.

His brows furrowed tightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Li Yao's situation doesn't seem very good right now."

"Why?"

Jiutiao Meise asked quickly.

"Don't look at the fact that Li Yao hasn't taken any damage yet. Every time there's contact, Li Yao has to release a skill, and even to block the opponent's attack, he's forced to summon his beasts to take the hit."

"On the contrary, that Tier Five professional has only released a few basic skills until now."

Zhang Yucheng's expression was serious. If Li Yao couldn't deal with the enemy, the three of them wouldn't even have the qualifications to make a move!

If Li Yao falls, everyone dies!

"Miss Meise, how much time is left?"

"Two minutes."

At this moment, Hunting Xi Xia ended her invisibility and revealed her form.

Jiutiao Meise: "How is it? Did it go smoothly?"

"Yeah."

Hunting Xi Xia nodded repeatedly.

"I hope it can help Li Yao."

"Kid, no one can help you now!"

The black-robed middle-aged man now occupied the absolute upper hand, his dual blades swinging out afterimages, constantly slashing toward Li Yao.

Most of Li Yao's skills were on cooldown.

Except for the Devourer, all the chess pieces had joined the battlefield, and only then could they barely cope.

But there was an absolute gap in agility attributes between the two sides; no matter how they attacked, they couldn't touch the black-robed middle-aged man even once.

And as long as a chess piece took one ordinary attack, it would be reduced to half health or even near death.

Fortunately,

the black-robed middle-aged man knew that Li Yao was a Summoner, so every attack was aimed at Li Yao, and only when he was truly impatient would he swing a blade at the summoned beasts.

"Clang!"

Li Yao received a slash.

With a "swish," the black-robed middle-aged man used a displacement skill for the first time.

His figure appeared instantly behind Li Yao.

A chill struck at his neck.

Li Yao's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Vanguard!"

A behemoth descended suddenly.

The summoned creatures of the Cloud Top Chess Player are different from other Summoners.

They don't need any chanting or reading time; with a thought, they can be summoned.

This is also the reason why Li Yao could struggle with the opponent for so long.

Every instant summon could produce an unexpected effect!

The Vanguard landed in front of Li Yao; to avoid being crushed by the Vanguard, the black-robed middle-aged man had to give up this attack and retreat temporarily.

However,

Li Yao clearly wouldn't give up this opportunity!

"Charger!"

The Vanguard aimed at the black-robed middle-aged man and rushed over violently.

"Stupid!" The black-robed middle-aged man gave a contemptuous laugh, setting his stance, preparing to release an explosive skill.

As long as this large summoned beast dared to rush over, he could kill it with one blade!

"Swish."

Li Yao and the Vanguard swapped positions.

"This move again. Do you want to die that much?"

Looking at Li Yao in front of him, the black-robed middle-aged man revealed a bloodthirsty smile, his dual blades merging to draw a full moon in the air.

【Heart-Protecting Mirror】.

An invincibility skill, in Li Yao's eyes, had always been an offensive means!

Facing the opponent's dual blades, the Inheritor sword was raised high.

Needle Cluster Shot, third stage!

Facing this sword, the black-robed middle-aged man couldn't ignore it, his pupils shrinking violently.

He prepared to release a displacement skill, only to find that he had just used it and it was on cooldown.

This ability to seize opportunities—

"Is this kid really a rookie professional who hasn't reached Tier Three?"

A burst of energy rippled out.

"Ding!"
