Chapter 334

his face sinking slightly.

So tanky.

Looking at it this way, this round's match

still has a lot to play for!

…………

"One Fire Slash, didn't break the skin, only dropped one point of shield? Instead, he even recovered one point of health. I wonder if Boundary Ju Shou has a skill to replenish shields; if so, that would be both tanky and 'underworld'!"

I wonder if Bound Ju Shou has a skill to replenish shields; if he does, then he would be both tanky and hellish!"

"Who was the last general with a shield? I remember it was the big shot playing Strategy Huang Gai, right? That general, with strong attacks, looked like he only had one health, but in reality, his defense was stronger than most generals with four health. Now it seems this Boundary Ju Shou is probably the same?"

"That warrior, strong in playing cards, looks like he only has one health point, but in reality, his defensive power is even stronger than most warriors with four health points. Now it seems this Bound Ju Shou is likely the same?"

"I knew it, generals whose starting health value doesn't equal their health limit are all 'underworld' generals, except for Shen Pei! Think back, from the distant ones like the Divine Sun Ben the big shot played before, to the recent ones like the Martial Wolong Zhuge Liang from the last round, these generals didn't have full health at the start, but one by one, they were disgustingly abnormal!"

"Indeed, this point feels very much like a common trait of many 'underworld' generals!"

"Indeed, this point feels very much like a common trait among many hellish warriors!"

"Seems there's some truth to it, but look at the big shot this round... he also started with a three-point health limit and two points of health. How can you say Divine Cao Zhi won't be worse than Boundary Ju Shou?"

………….

"You're welcome..."

Gu Xuan watched Boundary Ju Shou recover one point of health and act with such unbearable arrogance; he actually thanked him?

He replied with a laugh,

and then continued to play his cards!

His right index finger moved lightly,

and a golden card flew out from the two rows of cards in front of him.

Another Plum Blossom Slash was thrown out,

pointing at the Position 1 Lord!

"Slash!"

The Plum Blossom Slash was used,

and another Plum Blossom mark appeared on Divine Cao Zhi's general card!

A dual-Slash general?

The Boundary Ju Shou player looked at the appearance of another Slash in front of him,

his expression changing slightly.

And looking at the situation just now,

this Divine Cao Zhi

seems to be able to display the seven hand cards from the top of the deck and his own four cards in front of them,

and then,

mix them together to use?

Judging by Gu Xuan's use of the skill just now,

he should have skipped the card-drawing phase and directly used these eleven cards to play.

But in this situation, even if Gu Xuan couldn't draw cards,

every turn, he would have at least seven hand cards to use!!

The Boundary Ju Shou player carefully calculated his own card-drawing volume:

drawing two cards,

plus the skill,

he could probably draw three cards per turn.

These three cards,

compared to Gu Xuan's seven-card drawing volume...

were a full two times less!!

Simply pitifully small!

The Boundary Ju Shou player finally felt a trace of pressure.

"But fortunately,"

the Boundary Ju Shou player looked at Gu Xuan's health value,

a fragile Divine General with a three-point limit and two points of health.

Even if he draws many cards in a turn and heals to full,

the cards he can keep outside his turn are at most three.

Once an opportunity is found,

he can still be killed in seconds!

Besides, this round,

he wasn't fighting alone;

there was still a loyalist!

The Boundary Ju Shou glanced at the Position 5 Boundary Xun Yu player.

If the Boundary Xun Yu player really was a loyalist,

with one point of fixed direct damage per turn,

as long as Gu Xuan didn't kill him this turn,

then,

in the next round,

even if Gu Xuan didn't die, he would be severely crippled!

Thinking this,

the Boundary Ju Shou player continued to calmly throw out a hand card!

"Dodge!"

At the start, he had two Dodges in his hand, one was dismantled by Gu Xuan,

and now, there was one left.

The Diamonds Dodge was thrown out,

and the Boundary Ju Shou player instantly dodged Gu Xuan's point of damage.

After doing all this,

the Boundary Ju Shou player winked at Gu Xuan triumphantly,

signaling for Gu Xuan to continue!

"Really annoying..."

Gu Xuan looked at the scene in front of him,

unable to help but sigh.

Players in such a hurry to die,

he hadn't met for the first time.

After the three points of damage from the Wine-Slash passed,

Boundary Ju Shou would naturally know he was wrong.

He looked at Divine Cao Zhi's card faces;

Spades, Hearts, and Plum Blossom suits were all there,

just missing a Diamonds card to collect all four suits.

Gu Xuan then threw out one of the Diamonds Peaches.

Divine Cao Zhi started as a three-limit, two-health general,

and at this very moment,

he used the Peach to replenish his health to full.

Emerald light flickered,

and in an instant,

Gu Xuan recovered to three points of health!

At this moment, on his general card,

he had collected all four suits: Spades, Hearts, Plum Blossom, and Diamonds.

"Turning like tumbleweed from the root, drifting with the long wind..."

Skill [Seven Steps] activated!

Accompanied by Divine Cao Zhi's whisper,

the four suits on his general card flashed slightly,

and then,

the remaining seven golden cards floating in the air

all fell down in an instant,

flying into Gu Xuan's hand area! And, Gu Xuan's hand card limit also increased by one!

After doing all this,

Gu Xuan's card-drawing phase officially began,

and two golden hand cards flew from the deck into Gu Xuan's hand area!

"Hasn't he already played his cards?"

The Boundary Ju Shou player looked at Gu Xuan,

his triumphant smile freezing on his face for a moment.

Just now, Gu Xuan had clearly been playing cards for so long,

yet judging from the game space's prompt,

this guy hadn't even reached the card-drawing phase yet?!

Could it be this outrageous?!

And most importantly,

Gu Xuan drawing cards is one thing,

but he could actually, before drawing cards,

turn the other seven cards he hadn't used just now into his own hand cards?

Isn't that equivalent to an alternative "Draw Seven"?

No, adding the two cards from the card-drawing phase,

that's drawing nine in one round!

And there's no limit to the number of Slashes!

The Boundary Ju Shou player felt more and more terrified as he thought about it,

and the look of having everything under control on his face faded in an instant.

The seeds of fear slowly took root and sprouted in his heart.

Now, he didn't have a single Dodge in his hand,

and because he didn't know Gu Xuan's skill,

he had already used the [Arrow North] skill to recover health earlier.

Now, if Gu Xuan were to Slash him again...

"Can't scare myself,"

the Boundary Ju Shou player looked at the two points of black shield remaining on his general card,

comforting himself.

Even if Gu Xuan Slashed him again, triggering the negative effect of the [Arrow North] skill,

it would at most knock off one point of shield and one point of health.

But... as soon as Boundary Ju Shou saw the nine cards in Gu Xuan's hand area,

this comforting thought shattered instantly.

Nine cards; heaven knows how many Slashes are inside!

If Gu Xuan threw three damage cards at him,

he would be finished in one round!

…………

"I even said Boundary Ju Shou was strong; turns out the big shot's general is even stronger!"

"I thought that was the big shot's card-playing phase just now, but it turns out he hadn't even reached the card-drawing phase?"

"Indeed, no wonder I didn't hear the game space prompt for the big shot to draw cards."

"This is equivalent to the [Preemptive] skill, executing an extra card-playing turn before the turn starts? No wonder I felt it looked familiar."

"This is much stronger than Preemptive! Even Boundary [Preemptive] can only get one Slash from the discard pile; as for the rest, if there are no cards to play, there are no cards to play. But the big shot's skill, an extra turn, directly taking the first seven cards from the deck and mixing them with hand cards to play four! And after using them, he can get the rest of the unused cards! This isn't even in the same league!"

But this skill of the big boss, an extra turn, directly taking the top seven cards of the deck and mixing them with the hand to use four! After using them, he can still obtain the remaining unused cards! This is simply not on the same level!"

"Indeed, now I can perceive that Divine Cao Zhi's only weakness is that he only has three health, and his defense outside his turn is too weak; his strength lies in his offensive ability at the start of the turn."

"If the Lord played a Big Treasure this round, covering the big shot's cards at the start with a Wine-Slash, the big shot would probably be gone."

"Is the person above stupid? If the Lord really played Big Treasure, couldn't the big shot choose other generals to counter him?"

"I'm assuming, assuming, do you understand? The person above is identified as a fool!"

"Fight, fight, it's best if they have a fight!"

…………

The live stream barrage was dense, with nearly a thousand messages passing in an instant,

and Gu Xuan on the field

had already begun to play his cards!

"Wine!"

A Plum Blossom Wine was used.

The Boundary Ju Shou player's face turned pale,

clutching the only Slash in his hand area tightly,

as if this could bring him a trace of security.

Gu Xuan saw this and sneered.

Wasn't this guy quite arrogant just now?

"One more Slash, no need to thank me this time."

In the Boundary Ju Shou player's terrified eyes,

Gu Xuan threw out another Fire Slash he had just drawn!

It was true he had an Iron Chain Link in his hand,

but, it was only the start of the round,

and he couldn't be sure who the loyalist was.

Although, among the players present, Boundary Xun Yu was more likely,

but what if?

Blindly Slashing at the start, unless there was a ninety percent certainty, Gu Xuan generally wouldn't do such a thing.

Gu Xuan generally would not do that.

The Fire Slash targeted the Lord,

and the Divine Cao Zhi phantom took a second step forward,

its right hand waving forward, the clear wine in the wine goblet in its hand

splashing into the void in front of it.

Red flames erupted from the Fire Slash Gu Xuan used,

meeting the strong wine splashed by Divine Cao Zhi.

In an instant,

the wine fueled the fire,

the flames suddenly expanded by a circle,

and fell toward the Boundary Ju Shou phantom!
