Chapter 185: Blood Edge, Berserker

In the courtyard, Li Tianyu swept her spear horizontally, hitting the opponent's chest and sending him flying heavily.

Five guards were already lying on the ground; counting the one Li Tianyu had just dealt with, she had taken down six people in one minute.

Of course, none of the six were dead, only seriously injured.

Li Tianyu was not afraid of fighting, but she hadn't yet been able to overcome the mental hurdle of killing.

She looked back at Li Fei, looking unsatisfied: "Continue?"

"Sure."

Li Fei smiled.

So the two continued deeper.

While passing through a corridor, a figure suddenly flashed out from the front, raised a hand, and fired two shots at Li Tianyu!

Li Tianyu reacted quickly, but her left shoulder was still hit by a bullet; the bullet tore through her clothes but was blocked by the protective gear underneath and bounced off.

Li Fei had lent the level 4 protective gear given to him by the Zhang family to Li Tianyu to wear.

Level 4 protective gear could block close-range rifle fire, let alone pistol bullets.

Li Tianyu glanced at her left shoulder that had been hit, held her spear, and accelerated toward the person in front.

Li Fei, who had been following behind, nodded.

From this detail, one could see that his childhood sweetheart sister truly had the qualifications to fight on the battlefield.

If an ordinary person were hit by a bullet for the first time, even if they were wearing protective gear, they would subconsciously look for cover to hide and choose to avoid it.

But after confirming that the protective gear on her body could block the bullet, Li Tianyu chose to charge toward the enemy's muzzle at the first opportunity!

The meaning behind this, while seemingly simple, was actually extraordinary.

Soon, Li Tianyu swept away the enemy who had fired the shot with her spear.

Before she could continue forward, a figure suddenly killed their way out from the courtyard outside the corridor.

Li Fei had long sensed this person, but he didn't speak to remind Li Tianyu.

Swish—

The opponent held a nine-ring broadsword and swung it at Li Tianyu with both hands.

In her haste, Li Tianyu turned around and raised her spear to block.

Clang—

Sparks flew everywhere.

Li Tianyu was sent flying by the immense force, breaking through the corridor railing and falling into the courtyard on the left, which had a rockery and a pond.

To have such explosive power, the newcomer was clearly a martial artist.

Before the opponent could continue to attack with the blade, Li Tianyu had already used her spear to support herself and stand up, then engaged the newcomer in battle.

The opponent's blade was faster than the last, the blade light almost dancing into a white circular wheel, carrying a whistling gale, intending to drag the Li Tianyu in front of him into it, to cut, stir, and crush her!

Li Tianyu's strength was weaker than her opponent's, but she appeared very calm. As the iron spear danced, it was like an iron gate, blocking the opponent two meters away, unable to get close.

Fighting against an opponent using a spear, using short to strike long, one naturally had to find a way to grab into the middle circle, but for Li Tianyu to be able to keep the enemy "outside the door" while being at a strength disadvantage was very rare.

Rip—

A wound was suddenly pierced into the enemy's left shoulder by the spear tip.

It was because he had been attacking for a long time without success and was somewhat impatient, which Li Tianyu seized as an opportunity.

Originally, this wound was very shallow, only a skin wound, but as the spear tip swept past, a large spray of blood splashed out from the wound, moved with the spear tip, and finally condensed on the spear tip.

"Blood Edge?!"

This Chen family martial artist recognized the extraordinary ability Li Tianyu was using.

Li Tianyu's implant was also metal-attributed; otherwise, she couldn't use the Iron Origin Pill.

She used the second-grade inferior 【Jin Ge】, and the extraordinary ability "Blood Edge" could induce blood within a certain range and then bless the blood onto ironware, thereby enhancing the sturdiness and sharpness of the ironware.

Simply put, it could use blood to increase attack and defense, and inducing blood itself was a means of enhancing attack power.

This was an extraordinary ability very suitable for the battlefield; Li Tianyu chose this implant also to fulfill her dream in the future.

After recognizing Li Tianyu's extraordinary ability, the opponent fought more cautiously, because in front of a martial artist possessing 【Jin Ge】, the more wounds on one's body, the greater the strength gap would become.

Li Tianyu's long spear deliberately slid past the wound on the opponent's left shoulder time and again, constantly drawing out more blood.

Seeing her start to gain the upper hand, more people rushed here.

A dozen guards holding heavy crossbows and pistols stood on the periphery, and two Body-Breaking stage martial artists joined the battle, starting to besiege Li Tianyu!

But none of these people attacked Li Fei; they didn't even look at Li Fei.

Li Fei stood in a corner, as if he didn't exist.

He had already silently used the "Leaf Obscuring the Eyes Technique" on himself.

Currently, it seemed that this technique was not only useful against ordinary people but also effective against martial artists with keener senses, as long as Li Fei himself didn't make any threatening moves.

In the courtyard, Li Tianyu was besieged by three Body-Breaking stage martial artists and had already been hit several times.

However, she was wearing level 4 protective gear, and the opponent's blade couldn't break her defense at all when it hit her.

This made her gradually become bolder, and her moves became wide open, attacking only and not defending!

Hum hum hum—

The long spear was like a dragon, dancing into a blur, colliding with the opponent's weapons time and again.

Even though it was three against one, Li Tianyu's attack range became larger and larger, and the red-tasseled spear in her hand was completely unleashed.

Bang!

The long spear collided with the blade again, then suddenly borrowed force to bounce up. Li Tianyu twisted her waist and turned around, stabbing behind her, delivering a "returning horse spear."

Swish—

This spear pierced into the opponent's arm, and as the opponent retreated, it brought out a ribbon of blood.

Afterward, Li Tianyu continued to dance the long spear; this ribbon of blood was like the red tassel on the spear, dancing with the spear tip, and finally splashed onto a person's face.

The opponent had his face covered in blood, instantly losing his vision, and while retreating, he frantically swung the weapon in his hand to form a defensive line in front of him.

But the next second, a long spear accurately passed through the gap in front of him and pierced into his chest!

"Beautiful."

Li Fei, who was watching the battle, secretly cheered for Li Tianyu.

This series of responses was indeed brilliant.

And killing in this situation was actually the easiest way to overcome the mental hurdle, because there was simply no time to feel fear, disgust, or any other emotions.

Between life and death, if you kill, you kill; now Li Tianyu's mind was full of how to deal with the next enemy.

"Move aside!"

A roar suddenly rang out, and a figure killed their way here at an extremely fast speed.

Swish—

The air was torn apart, and the gale brought by the newcomer wrinkled the pond water.

The remaining two martial artists hurriedly dodged.

Bang!!!

The figure that rushed over threw a punch, the fist carrying a cyan aura, hitting the iron spear in Li Tianyu's hand like a heavy hammer.

The spear shaft was hit into an obvious arc, and Li Tianyu was sent flying, hitting the rockery in the courtyard.

Bang!

The rockery was broken, and gravel flew everywhere.

Li Tianyu spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at the newcomer with a solemn expression.

Reality was not a game; the enemy wouldn't come one by one from low to high to fight her.

The person who suddenly rushed out was a Qi Transformation stage Martial Master, and it was obvious that he had been honing himself in this realm for many years; his physical fitness was very strong, and his explosive power was also very strong.

"Protective gear?"

The Martial Master who arrived looked at the protective gear exposed on Li Tianyu's body, greed appearing in his eyes.

He hadn't held back with that punch just now; if it weren't for the fact that the protective gear on Li Tianyu's body was of a high enough level, his Wood-Attribute Gang Qi would have shattered Li Tianyu's heart meridian.

The newcomer exerted force and continued to rush toward Li Tianyu.

Facing a strong enemy who was a full realm higher than herself, Li Tianyu didn't shrink back, nor did she open her mouth to ask Li Fei for help, but gritted her teeth and met him head-on.

She was wearing level 4 protective gear; theoretically speaking, there was a possibility of fighting across realms.

Of course, it would be very dangerous.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every time the opponent threw a punch, it was like a heavy hammer swinging over, smashing the iron spear in Li Tianyu's hand until it trembled, almost flying out of her hand.

The sound of breaking air lingered in her ears, and the strong gale blew so hard that she couldn't even open her eyes.

She swung her long spear with all her might, blocking, retreating, and dodging time and again, feeling like a mosquito next to a cannon muzzle, flying with all her might, and if she wasn't careful, she would be blasted into slag!

This kind of oppression and sense of crisis was something she had never experienced in the arena of the Martial University.

When Martial University students fought her, no matter how strong their desire to win was, it wouldn't make her feel such strong murderous intent!

And she looked around, but couldn't see Li Fei's figure at all; the other party seemed to be gone.

This made her feel even more nervous.

Bang!

Li Tianyu was hit by a leg sweep on her left rib, sent flying again, and then spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Level 4 protective gear?!"

The newcomer looked at Li Tianyu with both surprise and joy.

Only level 4 protective gear had such strong defensive power, which could significantly weaken his Innate Qi.

If it had been level 3 protective gear, Li Tianyu would have been beaten to death by him by now!

Li Tianyu wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes firm.

Suddenly, she wasn't so afraid anymore.

"Just do it, why think so much?!"

She shouted, and for the first time, she took the initiative to charge with her spear, stabbing at the opponent.

She had always been a person with simple thoughts.

Before, because of nervousness and fear, she had been passively defending; now that she had thought it through, she simply stopped defending and put on a posture of wanting to trade her life for the opponent's!

This actually made the opponent cautious, because he wasn't wearing level 4 protective gear.

After a few moves, this Chen family Martial Master had his arm slashed by Li Tianyu's spear.

He was wearing level 2 protective gear, but under the spear tip stained with blood, it was no different from ordinary clothes.

This was the bonus brought by "Blood Edge."

However, this Martial Master had Innate Qi protecting his body, which effectively suppressed the ability of "Blood Edge," so the blood at the wound wasn't drawn out.

"You all go help elsewhere."

Just at this moment, another person arrived; his status seemed higher, and he loudly ordered the guards present to go elsewhere.

Then he held an iron rod and joined the battle.

This was also a Qi Transformation early-stage Martial Master!

"What's going on? Fighting a Body-Breaking stage for so long?"

"This little girl has protective gear on her."

"What level?"

"Level 4!"

"Damn it!"

The two talked while joining forces to launch an attack on Li Tianyu.

Li Fei, who was watching the battle not far away, had already planned to make a move.

Dealing with two Martial Masters at the same time, even if Li Tianyu was wearing level 4 protective gear, this had already exceeded her ability limit.

However, just as he was about to make a move, Li Tianyu's speed and strength suddenly increased by a notch.

"Hmm?"

Li Fei looked at the other party in surprise, hesitated for a moment, but chose not to move.

Pfft—

Li Tianyu spat out a mouthful of blood, then frantically swung the long spear in her hand, erupting with stronger power, stabbing out with one spear, forcibly forcing back one opponent.

The other person took the opportunity to hit her back with a rod, sending her flying again.

Boom!!!

Li Tianyu hit and broke a pillar in the corridor, rolled on the ground a few times, and spat out another mouthful of blood.

This scene made Li Fei feel some heartache, but he still suppressed the urge to help.

If Li Tianyu only wanted to live a stable life, he wouldn't take her to take risks.

But since the other party's dream was to become a female general in the future and fight on the battlefield, Li Fei could only be as "cruel" to her as possible.

Let her receive more tempering.

In the corridor, Li Tianyu rushed out with her spear.

Even though her injuries were getting heavier, the power she erupted with was getting stronger!

"Blood Edge" could only enhance the sharpness of ironware and could not enhance the martial artist's own strength.

So this was not the ability brought by "Blood Edge," but another extraordinary ability—Berserker!

Some powerful implants possessed two extraordinary abilities; when a martial artist reached the late Body-Breaking stage, there was a certain probability of triggering a second extraordinary ability.

And the second extraordinary ability was highly likely to be a core-level extraordinary ability; what it specifically was varied from person to person, and the same implant would trigger different core-level extraordinary abilities in different people.

Now, Li Tianyu had triggered "Berserker"!

This was a core-level extraordinary ability that could make people stronger the more they fought; the heavier the injury, the stronger the power erupted.

"You might really be able to be a general in the future."

Li Fei looked at Li Tianyu's figure and thought to himself.

What truly made him approve was not that Li Tianyu successfully triggered "Berserker," but the character the other party displayed.

The heavier the injury, the closer to death.

Even knowing that she possessed an ability like "Berserker," not everyone had the courage to keep operating like this, pushing themselves to the limit of life and death.

And Li Tianyu fought with two Martial Masters, sometimes even deliberately using her body to carry the opponent's attacks, letting herself be injured more heavily!

"Kill her!"

The unarmed Martial Master finally seized an opportunity and grabbed the long spear Li Tianyu stabbed out with his hand.

Taking advantage of this stalemate, the Martial Master using the iron rod raised the iron rod in his hand and swung it at Li Tianyu's head.

If this hit, the opponent's head would be directly blasted!

Li Tianyu decisively chose to abandon the spear and raised her arm to block.

Bang!!!

A dull, loud noise.

The expected pain and impact did not descend.

She looked up and saw a familiar figure standing in front of her.

Li Fei caught the swinging iron rod with one hand.

He turned his head to look at Li Tianyu and smiled:

"Beautifully done, leave the rest to me."

"Oh."

Li Tianyu's consciousness was already a bit blurred, and she nodded subconsciously.

A huge sense of security descended.
