Hu Die Lan

Chapter 1474 More Skillful

The atmosphere instantly heated up.

The previous duels truly showcased the characteristics of Blue Rain's map selection today, always shrouded in mist. The previous match between Fang Rui and Lu Hanwen could be considered quite direct, but everyone had a mental shadow regarding Fang Rui, always worrying that this guy might suddenly slip away. Moreover, Fang Rui's direct fighting was still the Wretched Style, and the biggest characteristic of the Wretched Style was that it not only wounded your character but also wounded your heart. As Blue Rain fans supporting Lu Hanwen, although they felt relieved when Lu Hanwen finally won, they were extremely depressed throughout the process.

Now, things were finally looking up.

This was finally a lively and enjoyable match that everyone liked to see in the individual competition.

Spear, greatsword.

The two heavy weapons constantly intertwined and collided, which was very satisfying. However, even so, Blue Rain supporters still couldn't fully enjoy it because Lu Hanwen's Flowing Cloud had very little health left, only twenty-three percent! Under such circumstances, it was honestly not appropriate to engage in such a head-on fight. Blue Rain fans were conflicted, wanting to see such a scene but also worrying that such a confrontation would be disadvantageous to their side.

Twenty-three percent, let's have a miracle!

All Blue Rain fans were holding their breath, showing that they dared not underestimate Tang Rou in the slightest.

As a player whose reputation was tarnished as soon as she debuted, the league still gave her the title of Best Newcomer despite the pressure, which showed that her performance in the regular season was truly convincing.

A player who could win the Best Newcomer title could no longer be regarded as an ordinary newcomer.

Twenty-three percent, was it possible?

Blue Rain fans were worried, barely daring to pay attention to Flowing Cloud's health.

However, whether they paid attention or not, the loss of life was happening in this tough confrontation.

Forty-seven seconds!

From the moment Lu Hanwen's Flowing Cloud rushed out from behind the tree to launch a backstab, the battle lasted a total of forty-seven seconds, ending with Flowing Cloud's defeat.

Lu Hanwen had already done his best.

He was of course clear that Flowing Cloud's health couldn't withstand a real head-on fight. During the battle, he was of course trying to avoid some tough exchanges with Tang Rou, and he played more flexibly.

However, it was only forty-seven seconds.

Flowing Cloud's life was exhausted.

Soft Mist, lost thirty-one percent of her health.

In terms of data comparison, Soft Mist lost eight percent more health than Flowing Cloud, and Tang Rou didn't seem to be playing as well as Lu Hanwen.

However, this matter couldn't be simply explained from a data perspective. After all, the basic background was different, and the combat styles chosen by the two sides were naturally different. Lu Hanwen needed to be more flexible and focus more on defense, while Tang Rou could be tougher and focus more on attack. Advantages could only be called advantages if they were fully utilized.

Lu Hanwen left the stage.

Dealing thirty-one percent damage to the opponent with twenty-three percent health was not a very inspiring result, and Blue Rain fans had higher expectations.

However, no one could criticize this result, and when Lu Hanwen left the stage, the audience still gave him warm applause.

And what about Lu Hanwen himself? He also had some regrets about the result. However, in today's game, everything he could have played and displayed had been fully shown. Although he had regrets, there was nothing to be distressed about. What he hadn't achieved was probably because his level was not high enough!

He still had to continue working hard!

With this determination, Lu Hanwen returned to the Blue Rain team, and the name of their last player in the individual competition was also displayed on the electronic screen. As expected, Blue Rain's last main player was their team's number one killer: Huang Shaotian, Troubling Rain.

The cheers and encouragement from the audience reached their peak.

This was Blue Rain's ultimate hope in the individual competition, and it was also Blue Rain's consistent trump card and core.

The previous match…

Blue Rain fans didn't want to think about the previous individual competition and only hoped that Huang Shaotian could hold the last level for Blue Rain at this critical moment.

Huang Shaotian entered the arena and entered the competition booth. The competition venue instantly became quiet.

Everyone watched the electronic screen, watching the words on the electronic screen loading the game, and watching Troubling Rain being scanned by holographic projection to Blue Rain's spawn point on the field.

The game began.

"Where to meet?" Tang Rou asked directly again.

"Waiting for a sneak attack!" Huang Shaotian replied quickly, and Troubling Rain's movements were also very fast, heading to the right, also detouring to the west side of the map. Huang Shaotian's opening was exactly the same as Lu Hanwen's choice.

And Tang Rou didn't make any changes either, Soft Mist still went straight to the center.

Then, Soft Mist arrived first.

What about Troubling Rain?

Not only the direction chosen but even the detour route, Huang Shaotian seemed to be copying Lu Hanwen. In the end, Troubling Rain even chose the exact same position as Flowing Cloud before, stopped, and began to observe Soft Mist outside.

"This… is he preparing to give Lu Hanwen a tutorial match to watch?" Pan Lin said.

"Probably not, right?" Li Yibo said. This was the playoffs, and the Blue Rain team could be considered on the edge of a cliff in the playoffs. No matter how important it was to teach newcomers, they couldn't just sacrifice such an important result in front of them, right? Unless Huang Shaotian was very arrogant and thought it would be easy for him to defeat Tang Rou.

However, those who were familiar with Huang Shaotian knew that even if he was a big talker, he would never be arrogant in the game. If you dared to show the slightest flaw, whether you were a god or a newcomer, he would stab you to death with a sword, without a word.

"Maybe this is what he considers to be the right way to play!" Li Yibo said.

At this time, the audience was also discussing, and everyone felt that Huang Shaotian was playing this way because he wanted to tell Lu Hanwen something.

And the two teams sitting on the sidelines, Blue Rain and Happy, were of course also talking about Huang Shaotian's behavior.

However, before everyone could say a few more words, Huang Shaotian had already taken action.

Troubling Rain rushed out!

Yes, it was just rushing out like this, similar to Lu Hanwen's impulsiveness, taking advantage of Tang Rou's view being shifted away, a very simple and crude backstab.

But Troubling Rain's speed was even faster!

His Silver Weapon Ice Rain was a lightsaber, which had a faster attack speed than Flowing Cloud's Flame Shadow. The weight of the weapon was lighter than Flame Shadow. Both points determined that Troubling Rain's movements would be faster. The attack speed had a greater impact, while the weight had a more subtle influence.

So what was Tang Rou's response?

With the same attack method, she of course had the same response. Although she was a little surprised that Huang Shaotian's attack was so similar to Lu Hanwen's start in the previous game, it didn't affect her quickly reacting.

Soft Mist rolled, and at the same time as she got up, the battle spear Fire Dance Meteor had already been raised, waiting for a counterattack.

Poof!

A splash of blood splattered out like this. Troubling Rain's Silver Weapon Ice Rain accurately stabbed Soft Mist who was rolling to get up.

The tip of the sword was pointed and retracted, without pause, without any extra movements, without wasting the slightest bit of extra operation. The second sword arrived…

Poof, poof, poof, poof…

The sword light waved for a while, and then there was the sound of the sword and body colliding. Soft Mist had already been hit by four swords while rolling to get up, including skills and ordinary attacks used for connection.

Tang Rou's prepared counterattack was completely blocked like this and she couldn't launch it at all. It wasn't until after these four swords that Tang Rou caught a glimpse of an opening.

Dragon Tooth!

Soft Mist's arm shook, and the battle spear stabbed out.

As a result, Troubling Rain's figure moved to the side, and then a sword light slashed like a streak of light.

Upward Chop!

This slash was completely close to the battle spear stabbed out by Soft Mist. Everyone could even hear the sound of Ice Rain and Fire Dance Meteor rubbing against each other in the howling sound of the sword wind.

The blood light was cut in half in this slash. Soft Mist had already flipped out backward in this Upward Chop, catching Tang Rou off guard while she was thrusting out Dragon Tooth. If she stabbed down, she wouldn't hit; if she dodged, she would have to cancel the attack first. Just having one more step in the operation made her unable to dodge in time.

The power of Upward Chop was amazing. In the two halves of blood light that were chopped, Soft Mist had already flipped out backward.

Everyone was stunned.

Completely the same attack method. Lu Hanwen and Tang Rou fought inextricably, while Huang Shaotian unilaterally suppressed Tang Rou.

Was Huang Shaotian trying to explain something to Lu Hanwen?

Couldn't tell!

This seemed more like slapping him in the face, slapping Lu Hanwen and telling him: Look, I did what you couldn't do.

As for how he did it…

"Faster speed!" This was Pan Lin's understanding.

"Opportunity, it's an opportunity," Li Yibo emphasized.

"In the same situation, Huang Shaotian's timing was much more uncomfortable for Tang Rou than Lu Hanwen's choice. The Upward Chop just now was also like that. Huang Shaotian could have directly connected this attack after the previous attack, but that might have left Tang Rou with a little room to dodge. So he deliberately sold an opening, let Tang Rou launch an attack, and then he was prepared to grab the skill when the opponent launched the attack, hitting Tang Rou in an awkward position and succeeding beautifully."

"Sure enough, it's different…" After listening to Li Yibo's analysis, Pan Lin was immediately very impressed. Both were swordsmen, and Huang Shaotian was indeed more skilled than Lu Hanwen.

After Upward Chop, the offensive continued. But after a few more moves, it didn't seem as fierce as before.

"Tang Rou's defense is good," Li Yibo said.

"This is a big improvement!" Pan Lin said with a smile. During the regular season, they commented on Tang Rou's performance on the defensive end and said that Tang Rou must particularly believe in "offense is the best defense." This sentence of course also made sense, but it only stated one truth. This sentence didn't contain the meaning that "defense is not important."

And now, Tang Rou had delivered a satisfactory answer on the defensive end. In the case of Huang Shaotian's sneak attack taking the initiative and pressing forward step by step, she was using defense to squeeze the opponent's attack space bit by bit.

So Huang Shaotian very generously sold an opening.

A great opening that could be used for a counterattack.
