Chapter 555: Section 342: The Final Throwing Spear Skill
Sword Qi was shot out, shattered by the Golden Level whip.
At the same time, it also startled many people.
Ban Langen even let out a low cry, drawing a fierce stare from Xiong Ju.
Ice Eagle also frowned slightly in dissatisfaction; to be honest, he had also felt a jolt in his heart just now.
But on the surface, Ice Eagle remained composed; he needed to stabilize the morale of his troops.
He snorted coldly, with a scornful tone, and analyzed the situation, “It seems the Long Fu squad leader is ready to make a move.”
“He has been on the receiving end so far, and if he doesn’t act now, he will truly be defeated.”
“That burst of Sword Qi just now was both a threat and a test.”
“But our Gang Leader had already anticipated it, and directly shattered it with a whip.”
No sooner had Ice Eagle finished speaking than the Dragon-man youth shot out several more Sword Qi in the Magic Image.
Teng Donglang immediately switched from offense to defense and extinguished these Sword Qi directly.
“What’s going on?”
“What kind of tactic is this?”
For a moment, the audience all showed expressions of perplexity.
Ice Eagle’s brows knitted, also feeling perplexed: if Long Fu continued to squander Sword Qi like this, how could he store energy?
The next moment, the Dragon-man youth used these Sword Qi even more frequently.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
Sword Qi crisscrossed for a while.
Teng Donglang was forced to retreat.
The Dragon-man youth seized this gap, quickly retreated, and while retreating, began to take potions.
Little did he know that Teng Donglang chuckled lightly and immediately used the Combat Skill Extended Whip.
The whip’s strike interrupted the Dragon-man youth’s action of taking potions, almost causing him to spill the potions.
Seeing this scene, Ice Eagle suddenly unfolded his brows and burst into laughter, “Hahaha, I’ve got it.”
“It’s Fighting energy!” a Human Race leader next to him also spoke up as he too had understood.
Ice Eagle nodded, his face brightening as if clouds had parted to reveal sun, “Exactly! Long Fu is running low on Fighting energy.”
“He is not a Golden Level, after all. As a Silver Level fighter, both the quality and quantity of his Fighting energy are incomparable to that of a Golden Level.”
Ice Eagle looked towards Xiong Ju, “Remember our last duel? Both you and Long Fu were at the end, constantly taking potions.”
“Based on that situation, Long Fu’s reserve and recovery speed of Fighting energy is only slightly above normal.”
“Don’t forget, there’s also a critical point. His practice of the Blast Fighting Spirit technique, which although powerful, gets depleted easily.”
Xiong Ju nodded, a fleeting memory flashing in his eyes, “That’s right. His Combat Skills also consume a lot of Fighting energy. Once the battle lengthens, he needs a substantial energy replenishment.”
“If you think about it, ever since Long Fu discovered the base tactic of the Gang Leader, he has been in a full-blown state. It’s quite normal for his Fighting energy to be insufficient.”
The others also realized suddenly.
“Yes, he is just Silver Level.” Ban Langen’s expression was somewhat complex.
Because he realized that, unknowingly, he started treating the Dragon-man youth as if he were Golden Level.
Until this moment, he was reminded by others and finally understood that the person battling back and forth with the Gang Leader, still holding a glimmer of hope for victory, was actually his same-level, Silver Level!
The thoughts of the others were similar to those of Ban Langen.
Spring Boxer exclaimed, “For Long Fu squad leader to have come this far is truly remarkable.”
“Although he has luxurious equipment, his own strength is also formidable, which is why he has been able to fight up to this point.”
When others heard Spring Boxer’s praise, they would normally roll their eyes and feel annoyed.
But now, they had no objections.
Even if the Dragon-man youth was their enemy, who had caused them immense trouble or even humiliation, they had to admit that the Dragon-man youth was no ordinary Silver Level!
Even Ice Eagle sighed, “I have to say, Long Fu is no ordinary person.”
“If someone else had the same equipment, it’s unlikely they would have lasted in battle up to now.”
“His will to fight, skills, and intellect are all top-notch. Reaching this point is honorable, despite a likely defeat.”
Although the duel was still ongoing, in his words, Ice Eagle had already treated the Dragon-man youth as a loser.
More and more spectators were acknowledging the predicament of the Dragon-man youth.
Insufficient Fighting energy!
This discovery made those who supported the Dragon-man youth, hoping for him to triumph against the odds, look disheartened, deeply sighing over the Dragon-man youth’s fate.
“Without Fighting energy, the source is lost. How can he continue an Extraordinary Level battle?”
“Alas! Long Fu squad leader has ultimately failed.”
“Making it this far is already quite impressive.”
“Teng Donglang was giving his all, demonstrating exceptional performance in his combat skills, equipment, and mentality. If it were an ordinary Golden Level, Long Fu might have won.”
“Long Fu squad leader picked a tough opponent, but by doing so, he proved his extraordinary nature.”
“If he could take a potion to replenish his fighting energy, Long Fu might still have a chance.”
“Give it up, you saw what just happened. Teng Donglang is battle-hardened; how could he possibly give Long Fu such an opportunity?”
Yet, Bu Quan never gave up hope.
“Hold on, just hold on a bit longer! Long Fu squad leader.”
She silently cheered for the Dragon-man youth and prayed.
“Just find an opportunity to take the potion, and you can replenish your fighting energy!”
She was skilled in alchemy but not at all in combat, with poor eyesight, she couldn’t see that the Dragon-man youth hardly had such an opportunity.
The Dragon-man youth rolled awkwardly, dodging the incoming Little Thunder God Flying Hammer.
As soon as Teng Donglang began his pursuit, he had directly used this annoying weapon.
The Little Thunder God Flying Hammer relentlessly pursued.
With no choice, the Dragon-man youth had to summon sword Qi again to temporarily repel it.
“Is this as far as I can go?” regret filled the heart of the Dragon-man youth.
His fighting energy was severely depleted. In desperation, he had no choice but to prematurely draw on the sword Qi reserves stored within the Dragon Scale.
But this was undoubtedly a temporary solution to a long-term problem.
“With such a severe consumption of sword Qi, there’s no talking about turning the tables.”
“If I could take a potion, I could hold out a bit longer.”
In fact, he had already taken a potion.
It wasn’t one of the healing potions stored in the Automatic Blood Bottle, but one specifically for restoring fighting energy.
This was before the Dragon-man youth had made several attempts to assault Teng Donglang’s base and, after retreating to a safe distance, boldly took it.
Otherwise, his own reserves of fighting energy couldn’t have sustained him to this extent.
However, once Teng Donglang was unbound by his base and took the initiative to pursue, the Dragon-man youth found himself without the slightest chance to take a potion.
“Taking a potion in front of him would be a flaw!”
The Dragon-man youth tried once and, after failing, he completely understood that he wouldn’t have such an opportunity again.
Teng Donglang’s strength was superior to his, and he was very meticulous, masterfully controlling the attack distance.
This mid-range distance was enough for him to close in swiftly to prevent the Dragon-man youth from taking a potion, and if the Dragon-man youth tried to charge, he could quickly retreat.
Up to this point, he hadn’t shown any flying abilities.
The Dragon-man youth could almost be sure that Teng Donglang had no Flying Combat Technique.
If he did, he wouldn’t have needed to run through this Molten Lava Hell.
But Teng Donglang’s mobility was not at all inferior to the Dragon-man youth’s. More precisely, it was somewhat superior.
Even at full speed, the Dragon-man youth couldn’t shake him or create any distance.
The youth racked his brains, searching for a way to break the impasse.
“Spear skills won’t solve my dilemma.”
“Up to now, there’s one short spear I haven’t even picked up yet.”
Teng Donglang’s control over the battlefield was indeed formidable.
Of course, this was also based on his firm upper hand.
“Fist skills won’t work either.”
“Not to mention long-range attacks; my arrows are almost used up.”
The Dragon-man youth thought through his equipment.
Only the sword returning to the Dragon Scale was worth looking forward to!
He couldn’t expect to rely on those defensive pieces of equipment.
Thinking this, the youth suddenly stumbled, his form wobbled, and in his rapid run, he nearly fell over!
A shock went through the heart of the Dragon-man youth, and he instantly understood: his body had also reached its limits.
Even though the Automatic Blood Bottle constantly healed his wounds, the lost blood was not something that could be quickly regenerated.
While flesh wounds could heal quickly.
This scene, caught by those with keen eyes, once again sparked a series of sighs.
Teng Donglang saw the weakness of the Dragon-man youth and closed in again, his whip cracking against the youth’s back.
Snap.
The Dragon-man youth was flipped on the spot.
As he rolled with the force, he managed to dodge the Little Thunder God Flying Hammer’s strike.
With a kick-off from his trailing foot, the Ring Mound crackled and flashed with yellow light as he countercharged towards Teng Donglang.
Teng Donglang, well-prepared, quickly retreated.
The whip seemed light and fluttering, but when it struck the Dragon-man youth, it was as sharp as a sword.
Struck repeatedly, the Dragon-man youth’s blood splattered and his momentum broke, forcing him to fall back.
Teng Donglang closed in again.
He followed the tactical doctrine of advancing when the enemy retreated and retreating when the enemy advanced, firmly controlling the distance between them.
The Dragon-man youth, only at Silver Level, couldn’t solidify his Fighting Energy individually and was utterly overwhelmed.
He kept trying to close the gap with Teng Donglang.
But things were different this time; without the constraints of a base, Teng Donglang was extremely agile. Though the distance was short, upon actually attempting to close it, even the Dragon-man youth couldn’t help but feel a sense of despair.
“The Gang Leader’s control over distance is simply exquisite,” Xiong Ju exclaimed.
Ban Langen laughed out loud again, “Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter here. Look at Long Fu, every time he tries to get close, he gets whipped so hard by the Gang Leader that he has to flee all over again. It’s truly pathetic.”
Ice Eagle stroked his beard with a smile.
As the battle progressed, the Dragon-man youth used more and more Sword Qi, and they all gradually began to relax.
There was no chance left!
“This is tough,” Sanda sighed, “If the squad leader could get into close-quarters combat, there still might be a slight hope. Let’s see if Teng Donglang will make a mistake next.”
Clearly, Sanda also realized that, with Teng Donglang’s current abilities, normally it would be impossible for the Dragon-man youth to get close.
If it was the beginning of their fight, there might have been a possibility for close-quarters combat.
But the battle had been going on for so long, both Teng Donglag and the Dragon-man youth clearly understood each other’s tactics.
And the amplification brought by the much-anticipated Big Arena Badge also couldn’t offset the huge disadvantage the Dragon-man youth now faced.
“If the Big Arena Badge had been Golden Level equipment, perhaps the situation would have been different now.”
“But it’s just Silver Level,” Sanda sighed inwardly.
In this Gold Level confrontation, Silver Level equipment seemed somewhat inadequate.
This wasn’t to say that the Big Arena Badge didn’t help the Dragon-man youth.
The help was solid.
Without this layer of help, the Dragon-man youth might not have been able to keep fighting until now.
But such a degree of help was still far from enough for the Dragon-man youth to turn the tables.
Outside.
The owner of the Snowbird Duel Arena was also shaking his head.
“What a pity.”
“It’s really too bad!”
He felt quite sorry for the Dragon-man youth.
If the Dragon-man youth could win despite the odds, Snowbird Port duel field would also reap many benefits.
The name of the Dragon-man youth would spread across the country, and Snowbird Port duel field would gain great fame.
Not only that, a video of Silver Level defeating Golden Level would definitely become the best-selling duel video of the year, guaranteed to sell all over the country.
This would be a significant and substantial fortune!
The Dragon-man youth began to see darkness before his eyes.
The number of times he staggered weakly was increasing.
His injuries were also becoming more severe.
There was still plenty of Healing Potion in the automatic Blood Bottle, but even combined with the Dragon Bloodline’s healing rate, it couldn’t keep up with the damage Teng Donglang inflicted.
The Dragon-man youth was sliding towards the abyss of defeat!
Teng Donglang performed extremely steadily, giving the Dragon-man youth no chances at all.
Expecting such a man to make a mistake?
It was just impossible!
“No, not defeated yet.”
“Long Fu squad leader, you still have a chance, don’t give up.”
“If there’s even a sliver of a chance, you must keep going, right?”
Bu Quan stared at the Magic Image.
She never gave up hope, stubbornly waiting for a miracle to happen.
“You have no hope left!” Teng Donglang sneered, chasing and whipping the Dragon-man youth’s back once again.
“Long Fu, this battle was destined from the start.”
“What can you do even if you used that special Magic Scroll?”
“At most, it’d just delay your defeat…”
Teng Donglang paused, words unfinished, as the Dragon-man youth counterattacked once more.
Teng Donglang immediately retreated, successfully creating some distance.
But this time, the Dragon-man youth did not retreat.
He truly had reached his limit.
“I can only bet on this one!” With this realization, the Dragon-man youth resolutely used the Sword Return Dragon Scale.
The next moment, a surge of Sword Qi burst forth.
But this time, the scale of the Sword Qi was much smaller than before.
Teng Donglang, well-prepared, immediately used a Combat Skill, intending to rapidly dodge.
But the next moment, his legs softened, and his complexion dramatically changed.
In that instant, his use of Fighting Energy failed!
The Combat Skill backfired.
The next moment, a surge of Sword Qi rushed towards his face.
At the most critical moment, he made a mistake!
Seeing such a scene, a large number of spectators gasped and stood up.
In the VIP Observation Room.
Ice Eagle and others stood up to watch as well.
“What happened, the Gang Leader actually didn’t dodge?!” Xiong Ju couldn’t believe it.
The next moment, a hemisphere Defense Shield made of gray light appeared amid the surging Sword Qi.
The Forsaken Garment!
Regardless of how the Sword Qi washed over it, this layer of light remained immovable.
It was a very miraculous form of defense.
It didn’t endure the attack but transported the Sword Qi away.
In just a few seconds, the surge of Sword Qi came to an abrupt end.
The accumulation this time wasn’t as substantial as before, and before the outpouring, the Dragon-man youth repeatedly redirected and exhausted it.
The most powerful counterattack was used up.
But the Dragon-man youth still had one last strike’s force.
Combat Skill — Throwing Spear Skill!
He clenched the Golden Level Short Spear tightly, using his last Fighting Energy and strength, and hurled it violently.
The Short Spear struck the gray-white light sphere but wasn’t transported.
The Dragon-man youth seemed to hear an explosion.
The blazing Sword Qi gradually dissipated, and the gray light sphere also vanished without a trace, revealing the protected user.
Teng Donglang’s lower body was in a bowed stance, his upper body straight, his face distorted in ferocity.
He remained motionless, as if frozen in time.
The Dragon-man youth fell to his knees with a thud.
He was about to concede defeat when his pupils suddenly contracted, and he was frozen on the spot.
Then, his mouth slowly opened wide.
“Is it an illusion?”
In his vision, Teng Donglang’s heart had a large hole, torn open, visible from front to back.
And that Short Spear lay behind him, covered with dripping blood.
Along its path, there were copious amounts of flesh and heart fragments scattered.
This was…
A fatal blow.
With a sound like a breeze, Teng Donglang’s body fell to the ground like a torn sack.
Immediately after, bright red blood rapidly spread out, like a red carpet bearing the corpse of a Golden Level fighter.
He…
was dead.
