Chapter 2277: Pierced by a Single Blade

~7 min read 1,339 words

Fine sand was blown up by the wind. If one looked up at the Baro Arena from above, one would find that this was a relatively retro building. The overall structure was circular, the outer ring was a tiered circular spectator stand, and the center was a yellow sand field.

The outer wall of the arena was a rock structure, overall yellowish-brown. The subtle weathering traces on the materials hadn't been repaired, which gave the Baro Arena a sense of grandeur precipitated by time.

The spectator stands inside the arena were built with uniform black wood. In addition to these most basic facilities, the details adopted high-tech products. However, in order to maintain the overall style of the Baro Arena, most high-tech products were hidden in the dark, and only the screen above the yellow sand field was not decorated.

This screen represented that the Baro Arena was not stagnant and inflexible, while the Baro Sword and God Shield were the preservation of inheritance.

Details determine success or failure. The dedication to details made the Baro Arena surpass the Void Arena, which had a larger field.

The Baro Arena wouldn't prohibit spectators from carrying high-tech products. These high-tech products wouldn't stay in the Baro Arena all the time and wouldn't affect the overall style here.

"Contestant 16, Contestant 50 enter. Hake wants to say a few more words, this is a duel between a spellcaster and a Law-Breaker."

Hake's shout was still impassioned, but he didn't dare to say too much. There were many spellcasters in the spectator stands, all of whom were supporters of the 50th participant, Dilin. As for the Law-Breaker, the Devil tribe and the Bana Little People were not to be trifled with. Among the three parties, regardless of who was offended, Hake couldn't eat it.

A small spaceship rose into the sky. This spaceship was like an iron bird with spread wings. Blue flames sprayed from the four engines under the cabin, letting this spaceship stand still above the yellow sand field.

The rear cabin door of the spaceship opened, and Lord Rat, wrapped in bandages, walked out from the spaceship. He sat on the edge of the rear cabin door, holding a bottle of liquor in his hand.

Lord Rat bit off the cork and drank several large gulps.

"Refreshing!"

Lord Rat laughed very happily.

In the spectator stands, Mage Sage Sephilia, wearing a white magic robe and a hood, just glanced at Violent Rat and ignored him.

Dilin's figure was the first to enter Sephilia's eyes. For this disciple, Sephilia was very satisfied.

On the yellow sand field, Dilin walked forward step by step. Her gaze was very firm, and at her waist, a piercing sword was hanging. Unlike conventional piercing swords, the grip of this piercing sword at Dilin's waist was longer, the width of the lower blade was about 6 centimeters, and it became thinner as it went up. At the front end of the blade, it was only one finger wide, and the tip was extremely sharp.

Originally, Dilin didn't carry any weapons with her, but after being defeated by Su Xiao last time, she immediately got a physical weapon. Fighting Su Xiao with alien elements, that is, weapons composed of Li elements, was just looking for death in close combat.

Dilin took a deep breath. The seven ear studs on her right ear released a faint light. Pale red blood vessels emerged on the skin near her right ear, and some pale red blood vessels almost spread to her cheeks.

"Earth vein, light, release, intent element, resonance..."

Dilin's voice was very low, but it had an ethereal feeling.

Just as Dilin was making the final preparations before the battle, Su Xiao had already walked out from the contestant passage. He had no abilities that needed blessing.

When Su Xiao was 30 meters away from Dilin, a wisp of yellow sand at his feet floated up, forming a ring with a diameter of three meters.

On the screen above the yellow sand field, the countdown began. 10 seconds later, the battle started.

The spectator stands quieted down. Almost all spectators held their breath. They had only heard of the battle between Law-Breakers and spellcasters, but had never seen it with their own eyes.

Dilin, as Sephilia's disciple, certainly had a great reputation in the Void, plus the halo of the outstanding younger generation, which made all spectators produce a kind of feeling that the two people on the field were evenly matched and would definitely have a bitter battle.

When the countdown was only 3 seconds left, Su Xiao drew the Zhan Long Shan from his waist, and light blue electric arcs surged on the long sword.

Seeing these light blue electric arcs, several old spellcasters in the spectator stands twitched their cheeks. This wasn't because they were afraid, but a instinctive reaction. They had fought with Law-Breakers and knew that once this energy invaded the magic paths in the body, it would rush straight to the brain. That feeling, don't mention how "sour and refreshing" it was.

Boom~

A loud knocking sound came from above. A two-handed greatsword slashed onto a shield, and then both dissipated. The battle started.

The fine sand circling around Su Xiao fell. His body leaned forward slightly, and he slashed the sword in the air.

"Blade Dao, Blue Ghost."

A blue slashing ray tore

While slashing out with Green Ghost, Su Xiao stepped on the ground and charged straight ahead. Currently, he was a full 30 meters away from Dilin; using Dragon Shadow Flash to pierce through space directly was not enough to cover this distance.

The moment Su Xiao charged out, yellow sand surged beneath his feet. He had already adapted to the soft feeling of stepping on sand, and because he often fought on various terrains, this did not affect his charging speed.

Clang!

Green Ghost slashed toward the front of Dilin. Her pupils constricted slightly; the blade aura slashed by the enemy was simply too fast, and the 30-meter distance was covered in an instant.

Dilin placed her center of gravity on her right foot, using the shift in gravity to tilt her entire body to the right.

With a swish, Green Ghost slashed past Dilin, the wind pressure lifting her short hair.

Bang!

A sound of breaking air came from the front. Dilin's perception converged, and she immediately sensed Su Xiao pouncing toward her in a forward-leaping thrust posture, unstoppable.

Golden Li-element gathered in front of Dilin, forming a hexagonal shield. This shield resembled a turtle shell; although not aesthetically pleasing, its mechanical principles were sufficiently scientific.

With a crack, the long blade pierced through the Li-element shield. Dilin was not surprised by this; she leaped backward continuously, light and agile.

In the spectator stands, seeing Su Xiao pierce the Li-element shield with one strike, Seraphia's thin lips parted, and there was obvious astonishment on her face. The Li-element she developed... had been pierced by a Law-Breaker with a single strike.

This strike not only pierced Seraphia's years of research results but also pierced many of her plans. The ability she had painstakingly researched to deal with Law-Breakers was pierced in just a single encounter.

On the yellow sand arena, the long blade pierced the Li-element shield, and the entire shield exploded. Su Xiao landed along with a large amount of Li-element fragments.

Just as he stepped onto the sand, the sound of wind breaking came head-on, and Su Xiao swung his blade forward.

With a clang, a spiral sword was slashed to pieces, exploding into large golden fragments.

A dozen meters away, Dilin held a longbow made of Li-element. The binding rope previously around her waist was actually the bowstring, which was now tied to the Li-element bow.

Dilin transformed into an archer. She would not forget being beaten into depression during her last close-quarters fight with Su Xiao, so she decided not to engage him in melee combat.

However, the ideal is plump, but reality is cruel.
