Xiao Ji was undoubtedly a brave man.
After all, a brave man was one who dared to challenge the strong! But brave men were often fools as well.
Because brave men always liked challenging opponents they could not beat! Still, Xiao Ji had some skill.
At the very least, he knew to activate Dou Qi Gauze before fighting.
However, the defense of Dou Qi Gauze did not take equipment defense into account! Since Dou Qi Gauze was condensed from Dou Qi, it did not share defense with the inner armor worn on one's body.
So it only depended on the character's base defense and Dou Qi Intensity! Of course, that did not mean defensive equipment was useless.
High-level defensive equipment not only provided additional attributes, but also amplified Dou Qi Intensity and increased Vitality Shield.
Furthermore, defensive equipment was the final barrier protecting one's body.
Once Dou Qi Gauze was broken, whether one could withstand the opponent's attacks depended on defensive equipment! Setting equipment aside, Xiao Ji's current defense stat was probably only around 40 points.
Even with a normal attack, Yang Shan could take more than 200 points off Xiao Ji's Vitality Shield with a single slash! And Xiao Ji's Dou Qi Intensity was likely only 20 points.
One point of Dou Qi could be converted into 4 points of Vitality Shield. (Dou Qi Intensity × 20%)
Xiao Ji's Total Dou Qi was 160 points.
And Xiao Ji knew perfectly well that Yang Shan's attack power was extraordinary, so he directly used half his Dou Qi to condense Dou Qi Gauze.
A total of 320 points of Vitality Shield.
Then came Thunder Cleaving Slash! Clang! -320!
Xiao Ji's Dou Qi Gauze shattered into pieces.
Xiao Ji was dumbfounded.
"What the hell? Is that even reasonable?"
Even Xiao Aotian had
