Shadow Eleven vanished strangely the instant the arena countdown began.
As an assassin, he naturally could not clash head-on with his opponent. Especially against a powerhouse like Gu Ding, going head-to-head was simply seeking death.
So, he immediately chose to conceal himself, observing Gu Ding from the shadows and searching for an opening.
That was how assassins fought: find the enemy's weakness, then deliver a single fatal blow.
Gu Ding's lips curved slightly. "Trying to find my weakness? How naive."
And just as Gu Ding had inwardly mocked, Shadow Eleven circled around him several times without finding a single opening. Although Gu Ding was merely standing there casually, without even taking a combat stance, he gave Shadow Eleven the feeling of an enormous source of danger. No matter where he touched, the result would be a thunderous counterattack that killed him.
Gu Ding stood motionless, but his pupils slowly turned completely black.
Among the spectators, quite a few immediately realized that Gu Ding was using a Pupil Technique.
Almost at the same time, Shadow Eleven suddenly spotted Gu Ding's opening. Overjoyed, he immediately attacked. The purple dagger in his hand, coated with Ancient Venomous Python venom, instantly pierced through Gu Ding's heart from behind.
As the dagger pierced through him, blood splattered everywhere. Shadow Eleven clearly watched the purple venom rapidly spread, quickly staining Gu Ding's entire body.
But suddenly, pain shot through the center of his own chest. He lowered his head and looked down, only to find an identical purple dagger embedded there. The purple venom had already spread throughout his entire body...
When he looked up again, Gu Ding stood before him completely unharmed.
"Those who kill will eventually be killed! If that dagger hadn't been poisoned, you wouldn't have died."
"That just now was..." Shadow Eleven
