Watching Wang Yuanyuan's movements, the competitors who did not belong to the Warrior Temple were utterly puzzled. Was this how a shield warrior fought?
Faced with such a heavy, powerful blow, Jiang Feng had no intention of taking it head-on. He abruptly stopped his forward charge and even retreated several steps.
With a boom, yellow earth scattered everywhere. Wang Yuanyuan's blow missed Jiang Feng, but it split a crack in the ground, leaving the massive Giant Spirit God's Shield embedded deep in the earth.
Jiang Feng seized the opening to attack. His twin swords erupted with dazzling light, golden sword radiance extending twenty feet from their blades as he slashed both swords down at Wang Yuanyuan.
But Wang Yuanyuan had stood out among the Warrior Temple's competitors, the most numerous of all the temples, for good reason. She instantly pulled her shield free and raised it in front of her with both hands.
Boom!
Despite being a shield warrior, Wang Yuanyuan actually knew no defensive skills at all. She could only rely on her own strength and the defensive power of the Giant Spirit God's Shield to withstand the blow.
Just as Jiang Feng had expected, Wang Yuanyuan was sent flying dozens of meters. Even her enormous shield flew out of her hands.
Wang Yuanyuan crashed to the ground, her blood churning and her face filled with disbelief.
What tremendous strength!
Wang Yuanyuan felt as though a savage elephant had rammed into her. Her arms shook violently, and the skin between her thumbs and forefingers split open. That single blow had nearly inflicted a serious injury.
Wang Yuanyuan flipped back to her feet and quickly picked up the Giant Spirit God's Shield beside her. Then she took three enormous gemstones from her Storage Ring and fitted them into three of the nine sockets in the shield.
Once the gemstones were in place, the Giant Shield began radiating boundless majesty and pride. A reddish-gold halo spread outward, accompanied by an aura of splendor.
Jiang Feng knew this shield's origins. It was a powerful weapon preserved from the glorious era, which had lasted from thirteen thousand to six thousand years ago.
Judging by the aura it emitted, the shield had now reached the pinnacle of glorious grade equipment, only a step away from legendary equipment.
Looking at the glorious grade equipment in her hands, then at the magic level equipment in his own, Jiang Feng could not help feeling envious.
Only three of the nine sockets held gemstones. If all nine gemstones were gathered, this shield would become a piece of epic equipment.
"I am a descendant of the Giant Spirit God. This Giant Spirit God's Shield is a bloodline weapon passed down by my ancestors from the glorious era. Although I can't unleash its full combat power yet, it should be enough to beat you. Summon your mount," Wang Yuanyuan declared loudly.
Jiang Feng shook his head again and explained, "I can't summon my mount right now."
Hearing this, Wang Yuanyuan said, "Then don't blame me for using my equipment to overpower you."
The moment she finished speaking, Wang Yuanyuan charged straight at Jiang Feng like a streak of reddish-gold flame. Every step left a deep depression in the ground, making it easy to imagine just how strong this young woman was.
Jiang Feng met her head-on. His twin swords unleashed a streak of golden light and a streak of fiery light as he slashed them together. It was Radiant Cross Slash, the combined technique of Light Slash Sword and Sunlight Slash.
Two blades of light shot forward. At the sight, Wang Yuanyuan suddenly let out a piercing shriek. She held her shield across her body, and an enormous silver pillar of light, a meter in diameter, immediately gathered on its broad surface. It blasted out toward Jiang Feng.
Rift Cannon, a powerful secret warrior technique with the spatial attribute, possessed tremendous instantaneous explosive power.
Radiant Cross Slash collided with the silver pillar of light, triggering an enormous explosion.
The deafening blast sent a powerful wave of Spiritual Power sweeping outward, forcing both Wang Yuanyuan and Jiang Feng back several steps.
Yet while Jiang Feng's Radiant Cross Slash shattered, Wang Yuanyuan's silver pillar of light did not dissipate. Instead, it continued hurtling toward him.
The powerful strike unleashed by equipment at the pinnacle of Glorious Level put Jiang Feng under some pressure.
He pointed the heavy sword in his right hand forward and thrust with lightning speed, producing dozens of points of light. It was Lightning Thrust, a third order knight skill.
Boom, boom, boom...
Amid the continuous explosions, Jiang Feng finally neutralized the attack.
By then, Wang Yuanyuan had charged up to him. The Giant Spirit God's Shield in her hands weighed a thousand jin, and as she swung it, it seemed capable of smashing space itself apart.
Jiang Feng crossed his swords in front of him to block.
With a tremendous clang, Jiang Feng's twin swords let out a mournful cry, as though they could not withstand such immense force.
Jiang Feng was rather relieved that the swords had not snapped outright. But the two conspicuous notches in their blades seemed to say, Hit us again, and we'll break on you.
Jiang Feng exerted force through both arms, knocking the Giant Spirit God's Shield away. At that moment, Wang Yuanyuan finally understood just how powerful he was.
With the Giant Spirit God's Shield already at the pinnacle of Glorious Level, a full-force swing from her carried at least several thousand jin of force.
Such strength was rather frightening for a fifth order professional.
Yet Jiang Feng had withstood it with his twin swords without retreating a single step. Instead, Wang Yuanyuan felt as though she had struck a mountain. The enormous recoil left her arms so sore and numb that, for a moment, she could barely move them.
Jiang Feng raised his foot and kicked the Giant Spirit God's Shield, sending Wang Yuanyuan staggering back with it for more than ten meters.
That strength!
Wang Yuanyuan was utterly shaken. She had never imagined that one day she would lose to someone in a contest of strength.
It was simply astonishing. Wang Yuanyuan estimated her own external spiritual power at around five hundred. If Jiang Feng's strength far surpassed hers, just how high was his external spiritual power?
Could it have already exceeded a thousand points?
Wang Yuanyuan immediately shook her head. How could a fifth order professional's external spiritual power exceed a thousand points?
Even so, Wang Yuanyuan believed that Jiang Feng's external spiritual power was undoubtedly far greater than hers.
Jiang Feng drove his right foot into the ground and shot forward. The sixth order knight skill Charge pushed his current speed to its limit, bringing him before Wang Yuanyuan almost instantly.
His twin swords slashed furiously at Wang Yuanyuan like a violent storm, leaving no gaps between their strikes.
At the same time, his swords erupted with dazzling radiance as boundless light element gathered along their blades.
Holy Sword, a fifth order knight skill, could greatly increase the power of skills while also enhancing a weapon's hardness and sharpness.
Clang, clang, clang...
A rapid series of collisions rang out. At this moment, the shield warrior who knew nothing of defense was forced to hide behind a shield far broader than her body.
Without the support of defensive magic, however, Wang Yuanyuan's defense depended entirely on her own strength and the hardness of the Giant Spirit God's Shield.
In terms of defensive power, the current Wang Yuanyuan could at best be considered a fourth order shield warrior. She simply could not hold off Jiang Feng's attacks.
It was time to end the battle. Empowered by Holy Sword, Jiang Feng's twin swords erupted into an enormous sun.
Boundless light element converged, and two Sunlight Slashes were unleashed simultaneously. Two enormous blades of light shot toward Wang Yuanyuan.
