After Lin Yi deliberately placed those Abyssal Beasts below 10,000 points closer, Liu Yuan soon faced a Source Energy Unit "Shadow Hunter" with a high of 8,900 points.
This is a kind of black scale armor that absorbs light and looks like a cheetah's Abyssal Beast.
It is extremely fast, has strange and tricky attacks, and the shadow energy attached to its claws can erode the source energy shield.
Liu Yuan, on the other hand, was holding a long sword. Although he was proficient in swordsmanship, he was unable to seriously injure the opponent. Instead, he was scratched in many places in just ten seconds, making his situation critical.
Liu Yuan felt that if he hadn't made great progress in challenging Stardust level's training level during this period, he might have died by now.
But these improvements cannot change the fact that he is at an absolute disadvantage.
After one dangerous encounter after another, Shadow Hunter appeared behind Liu Yuan like a ghost, claws reaching for his vest.
At that moment, Liu Yuan even felt the chill of death.
"Are you going to die?"
No!
The daily speculation on the Eastern Edge imprint and the countless failures in the virtual space were suddenly catalyzed by the tremendous pressure on the line between life and death.
At this moment, those things that were usually difficult to figure out were like blocked rivers being washed away by floods, and a kind of enlightenment suddenly came to Liu Yuan's heart.
The source energy that was originally flowing smoothly in his body followed some mysterious trajectory and poured into the long sword in his hand in an unprecedented way and speed.
Immediately, the sword instantly burst out with a dazzling cyan brilliance, and an incomparable Sharpness meaning soared into the sky.
"Qingming--break!"
Liu Yuan turned around almost instinctively and stabbed out with his backhand sword.
There was no huge momentum, only a green sword light as thin as a hair, which flashed away.
"Pfft!"
With a soft sound, Shadow Hunter, who was about to deliver a fatal blow, suddenly froze.
A small hole appeared on its hard black head.
The next moment, the fierce light in its eyes extinguished, and its huge body fell to the ground, slowly turning into ashes.
One sword kill.
Liu Yuan stood with a sword in his hand, his face a little pale, but his eyes were full of ecstasy.
He succeeded!
At the critical moment of life and death, he finally performed the sword skill that Principal Lin had given him long ago, but he had been unable to learn - <Azure Skybreaker Sword>
High in the sky, Lin Yi has been paying attention here, with a trace of relief in his eyes.
"Finally, someone took this step"
Lin Yi sighed secretly in his heart.
Learning stunts doesn't just mean mastering a powerful killing move.
It also means that this student has truly touched the threshold of "rules", understood how to use the essence of a certain power, and has the potential to climb to Star Core level.
Now, Blue Star finally has the second person who has touched the door of the rules.
How much earlier than recorded in previous lives?
In his memory, Liu Yuan said that when he mastered his special skills, it was already the twentieth year after the end of the world.
There are some things that are completely different in difficulty between those who are taught and those who are not taught. Lin Yi guesses that since Liu Yuan can master it, it shouldn't take long for people with similar talents to give them appropriate pressure.
While thinking about it, Lin Yi focused his attention on the other side of the battlefield.
There, Chen Yu, Zhou Yuxuan, Zhao Gang, Adams, and another student Sun Lei, who is good at defense, are working together to deal with "Lava Giant Rhinoceros", a Source Energy Unit with up to 6500 points.
The individual Source Energy Unit of these five students are between 2100 and 2300 points. Facing this giant beast alone is like a mantis trying to control the car.
"Sun Lei! Zhao Gang! Hold it head-on! Don't let it charge even for a second!" Zhou Yuxuan spoke very fast. In the virtual space, he had seen this type of Abyssal Beast. Once it charges, it can instantly tear apart the defense line composed of five of them, and even affect the ordinary troops behind.
"Understood!" Sun Lei growled, and he and Zhao Gang took a step forward at the same time.
Sun Lei was holding a huge alloy shield, and source energy was injected into it crazily, and the shield's surface lit up with a thick khaki light. Zhao Gang slammed the tower shield heavily on the ground, with muscles all over his body tensing, and khaki source energy covering his whole body like armor.
The two of them were like two mountains rising suddenly from the ground, blocking Lava Giant Rhinoceros's charging path.
"Adams, interfere with its senses, especially its eyes." Chen Yu then added.
"Leave it to me!" Adams's figure flashed, spinning around Lava Giant Rhinoceros's head at high speed. The rapier in his hand kept thrusting out, not to cause damage, but to shoot sharp blades one after another, accurately hitting Giant Rhino's copper bell-like eyes and nostrils that were spitting out sparks, forcing it to close its eyes and shake its head constantly, disrupting its rhythm.
"Chen Yu, let's attack its weakness!" Zhou Yuxuan, who was in charge of temporary command, made an instant judgment.
In the analysis of the virtual space, this heavy-duty Abyssal Beast has extremely high defense, but the connection between the neck and the body is relatively fragile.
"Roar!" Lava Giant Rhinoceros was enraged by Adams's harassment. He suddenly stood up and trampled down hard with his front feet covered with hot rocks with great force.
"Boom!"
Sun Lei's alloy shield made a tooth-piercing twisting sound. His whole body and shield were shaken and he slid back several meters, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Zhao Gang's tower shield sank deeply into the ground. His arms trembled violently and his jaws cracked. However, the two of them relied on their tacit understanding and their strongest defense to withstand this terrifying blow.
At the same time, Chen Yu and Zhou Yuxuan moved.
Chen Yu poured all his energy into the sword, and the blade erupted with an unprecedented bright light. He was like an arrow leaving the string, and rushed towards the connection between Giant Rhino's abdomen and neck exposed by lifting his forefoot. The sword was like a dragon, moving forward indomitably!
Zhou Yuxuan appeared behind Giant Rhino like a ghost.
He gave up the short stab, held it in virtual hands, and condensed and compressed the source energy at an unprecedented speed, eventually forming a rapidly rotating threaded spike. Then, he aimed at the knee joint of Giant Rhino's hind leg and fired directly.
Lava Giant Rhinoceros let out an earth-shattering roar of pain. His huge body suddenly tilted because of the damage to the joints of his hind legs, and his raised feet could not fall down smoothly.
Then, Chen Yu's sword light followed closely and slashed hard into the gap in the carapace below Giant Rhino's neck that was completely exposed due to his unstable footing.
"Pfft!"
Its huge body shook a few times, and finally fell to the ground, splashing smoke and dust all over the sky, and made no sound again.
The five people gathered together panting. Chen Yu wiped the sweat from his face and grinned. "Damn, it's more exciting than killing the 4000-point "Thunder Rhinoceros" in Endless Mode!"
Zhao Gang shook his numb arm and said in a low voice, "This guy is really strong! But if we carry it together, it doesn't seem so scary anymore."
Adams sheathed the sword gracefully, with a reserved smile on his face, "Perfect rhythm, gentlemen."
High in the air, Lin Yi had a panoramic view of this scene and nodded slightly.
Joining forces to leapfrog the challenge and be able to quickly summarize and reflect, this is exactly what he hopes to see.
Individual bravery is important, but on the broader battlefield in the future, commanders and soldiers who know how to trust their teammates and are good at cooperating are equally important.
The battle is still going on, steel is roaring, source energy is shining, and blood is being shed.
But on this cruel battlefield, New Star are growing and transforming at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, silently records every name and selects the future spine belonging to Blue Star Civilization.
