"Intermediate assessment: defeat your opponent within ten minutes!"
"Battle begins!"
The electronic voice rang out without the slightest emotion.
Whoosh.
Tang San moved first again, but having replicated the previous battle experience, he was clearly much more vigilant this round.
Using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, he began circling Nan Liujing continuously. He appeared to be merely running in circles, but the violet glow spreading through his pupils was searching for a weakness to exploit.
"Hidden weapons?"
No matter how strange Tang San's footwork was, he could not escape Nan Liujing's Spiritual Power lock. Nan Liujing noticed Tang San casually swing his right arm, his forearm trembling rapidly in an unusual manner. The result was that when his fingers suddenly spread, they traced countless afterimages.
The instant the afterimages appeared, Nan Liujing keenly sensed subtle disturbances in the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy. Centered on him, it was as though countless invisible bats were flying at him from every direction, their vicious fangs baring bloodthirsty attacks. If they struck, they could sever his wrist tendons, ankle tendons, or even his neck.
The Tang Sect's tenth technique, Bat Wing Samsara!
As he unleashed the attack, Tang San's first Soul Ring quietly lit up. A cluster of deep-blue Blue Silver Grass with snake-like patterns emerged from his right palm. Its blades were slender rather than flat like ordinary Blue Silver Grass; instead, they were cylindrical, with countless poisonous hooked thorns attached along their edges.
"Blue Silver—"
Tang San was about to release his first soul skill when his expression suddenly froze.
At the center of Bat Wing Samsara's barrage, the young man held a dark azure Coiled Dragon Staff, wielding it with fierce momentum. Azure gales gathered around him alongside dark-blue currents. The two combined like a thunder dragon riding the wind.
Clang!
