Chapter 201: The Duel
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
As soon as Han Xing went on stage, many players from the Mad Dragon Guild had already turned on the recording function.
This was the first time the guild master had used his identity as a mage to fight against the Dual Sword Style Tsuruta Hayami. This was no joke!
If he won, he would simply create a legend for the mage!
Zhang Wanshan’s live broadcast stream was also packed with viewers. He had created a precedent for the escape style of a mage. Everyone wanted to hear his opinion on Star Rebel.
“What do you think about Star Rebel challenging Tsuruta Hayami? Can a mage defeat a master of the Double Sword Style?”
“We’ve watched videos of Star Rebel fighting before. He’s indeed very good at melee, but challenging a Sword Master? That’s simply insane!”
“In any case, I’m quite confident in Star Rebel. I don’t think he would do something so stupid. He must have a way to win!”
“Hahaha! It’ll be exciting in a while! The streamer can finally use his ultimate skill to explain how a mage will be beaten so badly that he has to run away!”
Zhang Wanshan had indeed admired Star Rebel before. Unfortunately, he still chose to be thick-skinned in the face of popularity. He said regretfully, “Before I comment on the actions of Star Rebel, 1 would like to share with you a few things about Tsuruta Hayami.”
“Tsuruta Hayami is the tenth generation successor of the Tsuruta family, a martial arts family in Country R. He won first place in swordsmanship in Country R at the age of 16, not to mention his progress over the years.”
Zhang Wanshan’s words were extremely brilliant. He trolled Han Xing but no one could find any mistakes.
The viewers of the live broadcast were suddenly led to another topic. With Tsuruta Hayami’s strength, Star Rebel could not win for sure.
With such a strong troll, the comments on Petite Delicate’s screen also started to spew.
Petite Delicate looked at the comments that were all criticizing the guild master. Her expression did not change. Instead, she smiled sweetly.
She said in a coquettish tone, “Hmph! No matter what you say, 1 only trust my guild master. I won’t listen to you!”
Her appearance and gentle voice made the netizens in the live broadcast room feel their bodies go limp.
“Whatever my wife says goes! Star Rebel must win this match!”
“I finally understand why Star Rebel wanted to recruit Petite Delicate into the guild. She’s a mascot! I like her so much! I love her so much!”
“Of course! My wife is so cute! She must be able to cheer for Star Rebel. How can he win without my wife?”
“Bullsh*t! Petite Delicate is my wife. Who do you think you are? Line up!”
This time, the atmosphere in Petite Delicate’s live broadcast room was completely reversed. She glanced at the screen and was extremely satisfied. Zhang Wanshan still wanted to troll the guild master. He did not take her seriously indeed.
She also affected the other female streamers who were live broadcasting. As expected, all of them cheered for Star Rebel.
No matter how noisy the online discussions were, it did not affect Han Xing. After he went on stage, he sized up Tsuruta Hayami.
Tsuruta Hayami’s eyes were filled with disdain. He did not even take Han Xing seriously.
A flash of lightning appeared in Han Xing’s hand. A small lightning sword then appeared in his hand.
“I won’t use my mage skills for now. I’ll use this move to fight you.”
Tsuruta Hayami often traveled to various countries to compete, so he understood the Chinese language. He almost couldn’t hold the contemptuous expression on his face.
He said angrily, “You’re just a mage. How dare you insult my swordsmanship? I’ll let you know what regret is today!”
“Make your move!”
Tsuruta Hayami’s gaze was as sharp as a blade. Two silver lights flashed, and he took the lead to attack!
“Heavenly Light!”
“Dawn!”
Tsuruta Hayami’s left and right hands instantly erupted with a sharp sword aura. Two different sword techniques were unleashed at the same time.
These two attacks had cut off Han Xing’s escape route. He could only have a glimmer of hope if he faced them head-on.
Han Xing was a fragile mage. If he was hit by one of the sword moves, his health bar would probably be reduced to zero.
“What a Double Sword Style!”
Han Xing’s eyes were full of admiration. Then, he shouted in a low voice, “Lightning Steps!”
In an instant, his entire body was ten meters away. Just as he landed, he did not expect a few sword moves to instantly hit him again.
“Hmph!” Tsuruta Hayami sneered. To prepare for this battle, he had learned about Star Rebel’s techniques and moves. This person’s Lightning Steps could move several meters in a short period.
When he had released Daylight and Daybreak moves, he had scanned the situation on the stage. After determining where Star Rebel would land, he immediately released a new sword move.
Tsuruta Hayami was fast enough but Han Xing’s movement skills were not to be underestimated!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
As soon as he landed, he heard the sound of air being torn behind him. He did a beautiful side roll, raised his hand, and slashed with Lightning Sword. In the blink of an eye, he broke Tsuruta Hayami’s move.
Han Xing’s reaction speed made the audience break out in cold sweat for him.
If he was not fast enough, he would be eliminated.
“This reaction was very timely. I have to admit that Star Rebel is still quite capable.”
Zhang Wanshan laughed as he explained but his heart was already beating fast. He only hoped that Han Xing wouldn’t be too eye-catching. Otherwise, he, the founder of the escape style, would ruin his reputation.
His current skills could deceive female fans but he was simply not presentable in the eyes of some male fans.
The netizens in the live broadcast room did not have the time to care about Zhang Wanshan’s reaction. On the field, lightning and sword light intertwined.
Apart from dodging the first wave of attacks with Lightning Steps, Han Xing directly took the opponent’s attacks head-on. The two of them fought evenly.
One Sword Horizon and North Star were stunned. They were both God-grade players, so they could at least see some clues. On the other hand, the other players were in trouble.
The two of them were so fast that only afterimages were left. If it weren’t for the fluctuation in their health bars, the netizens wouldn’t have known who was injured.
“F*ck, I can’t even see their battle clearly!”
“I’m here to learn skills, not to train my eyes. Can the officials quickly come up with a slow motion? I’m desperate to see their battle.”
“Hurry up! I’m so anxious. How can I look at this? The officials should not sit back and do nothing. Hurry up and step forward!”
The netizens were all anxious. The smarter ones had already turned on the recording function so that they could watch it slowly and repeatedly.
At the same time, Falling Leaf, who was watching the battle, suddenly received a message. His gaze froze. After reading it in detail a few more times, he was stunned on the spot.
The other members of the White Rainbow Guild were so focused on watching the match that they didn’t notice that their guild master, Fallen Leaf, had already gone offline.
After coming out of the gaming pod, Falling Leaf immediately called back nervously.
“Big brother, is what you said true?”
