Chapter 504: Chapter 457: Literary Battle Preliminaries (Long Chapter)
Holy Domain Space, East Eight Area.
Within the Beiting Defense Circle, there are five similar light column entrances.
Most of the Awakeners from the Ancestor Dragon Army are concentrated around the column closest to Base City.
At this mont, both in the Holy Domain Space and around the outer light columns, the outlines of forts had been constructed; countless steel building materials had been transported from Base City and were fixed and welded by Earth Series and tal Series Awakeners.
Similar scenarios played out near the other entrances, with armies of thousands stationed near each one.
During ng Jingran’s fifth round of combat, he defeated his opponent within a few seconds and on being teleported back, he imdiately looked up to assess the situation—most of the ti, it was either powerhouses crushing ordinary Awakeners, or intense duels between Tenth Layer and Eleventh Layer, which had little significance for him.
However, at this mont, ng Jingran’s eyes brightened as he looked towards one of the battlefields.
Tang Yu, facing a Transcendent?
Dressed in silver armor and with long brown hair, the powerful and commanding Sacrificial Officer Baili Ba also noticed this battle and moved closer.
“Eh, this speed doesn’t look so good! Could it be—”
His gaze flickered. Tang Yu, who he had deeply feared that day, didn’t seem very strong?
ng Jingran shook his head slightly, “Don’t you think this battle is very rhythmic?”
“Rhythmic? What is that?”
After several seconds of probing, right at that mont, a sudden eruption occurred; in just a few seconds, the earlier stalemate was broken, and the Transcendent from the Fourth Epoch was forced to admit defeat and withdraw.
“This…” Baili Ba couldn’t understand.
In terms of speed, strength, even reaction capability, Tang Yu should have been among the worst within the Transcendent, yet he outclassed everyone.
The opposing Transcendent, in Baili Ba’s judgnt, was of comparable strength to him; however, from the beginning to the end of the fight, inexplicably, that Transcendent lost… That shouldn’t be!
But ng Jingran beca more certain of his own guess.
“Truly soone who built a great enterprise out of nothing, Tang Yu is really sothing.” ng Jingran stroked his beard and said, “It’s not that his strength or speed is weak, but that he is suppressing his own power to seek a breakthrough.”
“But his reaction ti is obviously slower, right? Often the Transcendent would make two moves before he would react and follow up.”
After Baili Ba spoke, he found ng Jingran giving him a glance, the kind that seed to be directed at an ignorant idiot.
“If his reaction tis were truly slow, could he perfectly dodge every attack? Haven’t you noticed that every ti Tang Yu dodges, it looks dangerous, yet it actually indicates his full confidence—even with just a milliter to spare, he can avoid attacks with grace.”
“Isn’t that because of special Combat Skills?”
“Even special Combat Skills are used by a person. Look at those actions, as graceful as flowing water, the serene expression—calculating every attack, every dodge not only within the enemy’s actions but also finding the most effortless way for himself. It can be said that by suppressing his strength, Tang Yu demonstrated a perfect example of using weakness to overco strength, a textbook-like battle!”
“That is because he is so advanced, able to make such seemingly impossible maneuvers.”
“That is the essence of Martial Path. You all need to learn more.”
The last statent was directed towards the mbers of the Ancestor Dragon Army.
The hundreds of thousands of Awakeners from the Ancestor Dragon Army, who could all be considered his students, stood aside. Those who had already completed their combats nodded in agreent, quite enlightened.
—They might not have watched that battle, their eyes might not have been quick enough to catch the actions of the contestants, but… if Grandmaster ng said so, there must be so truth to it!
Though they didn’t fully understand, it seed highly sophisticated and profound.
They had long heard of Director Tang from Green Shadow, an unparalleled force; today, they saw for themselves, truly exceptional.
Following ng Jingran’s analysis, they quickly constructed a corresponding image of the battle in their minds.
…
As the Advanced Sector Martial Combat unfolded, most of the Awakeners, due to having nothing else to do, actually turned into re spectators.
In the true sense of the word.
Above, each individual was a top-tier powerhouse of the current era; the battles appeared like videos sped up many tis, blurry and unclear, leaving them no choice but to eat so food and chat to kill ti.
However,
although the fight was unclear, the initial appearances of the contestants in the space were visible.
It was either the bizarrely dressed strongn from the Fourth Epoch or the Green Shadow Awakeners in giant tree-patterned attire.
Commander Chi was sitting cross-legged, his injuries mostly healed, holding an open ‘Green Shadow… brochure.’
“Have you noticed that there are fewer Green Shadow Awakeners in the Advanced Sector recently, and their win rate seems not high? I glanced a few tis and saw quite a few Green Shadow Awakeners leaving the scene in defeat.”
Commander Chi’s strength was decent, and he could see a bit clearer in battles between the Tenth and Eleventh Layers.
During the withdrawal of the defeated, the order in which the two contestants disappeared could help determine who won and who lost.
Compared to the near domination of the sector by Green Shadow previously, now, the Green Shadow forces seed to have only a fifty-fifty win rate and lacked particularly strong experts—Tang Yu, Eileen, and other followers, either wearing their own equipnt or specially designed gear from Kevin, varied in style and did not feature the giant tree pattern.
The leader of the neighboring forces nodded approvingly, “Well said, the strength of Green Shadow is reflected in its core power.”
He suddenly froze.
If Ninth Layer Awakeners were only considered core strength, then what was he, who had been soundly defeated by the Green Shadow forces? After all, he ranked among the top five in the entire region!
