Concede? Victory!...

Under Dual Blades' relentless, storm-like assault, coupled with Wu Yan's attack power—enough to break through Heathcliff's defenses—Heathcliff's HP was now at the point where, if he took even one more hit from Wu Yan, it would definitely drop into the yellow zone, shield block or not!

And the moment his HP bar dropped into the yellow, Heathcliff would lose...

Of course, Heathcliff possessed administrator privileges. He had given himself a function that prevented his HP bar from dropping into the yellow state. So forget letting Wu Yan hit him once—even if Wu Yan kept attacking until tomorrow, his HP bar would never turn yellow.

But that could not serve as Heathcliff's safeguard!

With so many people watching, anyone with eyes could tell that his current HP bar definitely could not withstand another blow from Wu Yan. It would surely fall into the yellow afterward. And if his HP bar did not turn yellow after taking a hit from Wu Yan, then his identity might very well be exposed!

But if he did not keep his HP bar fixed above the yellow state, then after taking a hit, he would likewise lose the duel when his HP dropped into the yellow...

So Heathcliff had truly reached a point where he could neither advance nor retreat... To get out of this predicament, he had two choices...

One was to reduce his opponent's HP bar to the yellow before the opponent struck him. That way, Heathcliff would win.

However, Heathcliff could clearly see that Wu Yan's HP bar was full. Throughout the entire duel, Wu Yan had been the one attacking him. With both his strength and speed inferior to Wu Yan's, Heathcliff had not landed a single hit. Could he possibly take half of a full HP bar in one blow? If
