He disliked Wu Shuangren's tone of voice when he spoke to her and decided to wait until he had completely defeated her before letting her speak.
It's still a simple, level-two spear.
Put your gun away, then draw it!
Put your gun away, then draw it!
The Lu Family Spear Technique, transforming from a python into a dragon, coiling and strangling, rising and swallowing, dragon and horse attacking together... all the complex changes and profound spear techniques were incorporated by Lu Yulin into this simple thrust.
Those who lack the necessary understanding can only see the endless repetition of the same basic spear technique.
But Wu Shuangren seemed to see a true dragon hidden in the clouds within the opponent's spear thrust—
The dragon appears only briefly, its head and tail never seen, but when it suddenly emerges from the sea of clouds with a fierce strike, it can cause earth-shattering chaos!
In this intense gunfight, the opponent, high above the clouds, holds the power of life and death, and destiny, over their opponents.
Wu Shuangren dodged and parried at near-limit levels time and time again. The Yin-Yang unified "Cloud Tiger Seven Kills" technique was almost unable to borrow force or neutralize such spear techniques.
With each thrust of Lu Yulin's spear, the air was torn apart, emitting a piercing shriek. The gust of wind whipped up the grass clippings beneath their feet, scattering them in the air before they were pierced by streaks of silver light, leaving visible holes!
Amidst a series of terrifying explosions, Wu Shuangren retreated continuously.
"Didn't you say you wanted to prove to Lin Qian what's right? Is this what you consider right?"
Wu Shuangren's responses were always at the limit, while Lu Yulin seemed to be handling things with ease and was still able to speak.
He continued to display his composure:
"Until you reach the level of Grandmaster, you'll never know how vast the gap is between us!"
"If you team up with Lin Qian, you might be able to hold your own against me a bit longer. But one person against me is simply not enough."
"After I kill you, I will kill Zhang Da. The head of the Yi Province Militia and a military officer from Shu Province are barely enough to warrant my first attack after breaking through to the next realm."
He killed Wu Shuangren to settle old scores.
Zhang Da was killed to announce to the world that Great Grandmaster Lu Yulin has rebelled!
From the night he killed Wu Yan with his own hands, Lu Yulin vowed never to let anyone dictate his destiny again.
There are fewer than two hands in this world of Great Grandmaster, and I am already one of them. My voice should naturally be heard throughout the world!
"You really think... you're... invincible?"
Wu Shuangren's voice came out intermittently from the explosion.
P. S.: I'm so sorry, there was an unexpected situation at home that delayed the update. That's all for today, I'll update more tomorrow. (After finishing this section...)
208 Spear of Fate, Method of the Escaped One (Two-in-One)
"You really think you're invincible?"
Wu Shuangren's words made Lu Yulin frown slightly.
From the moment he appeared until now, everyone was awestruck by his status as Great Grandmaster, casting awe-inspiring glances his way. Even Lin Qian was equally cautious and extremely wary.
Only Wu Shuangren showed no respect whatsoever from beginning to end.
This was unacceptable to Lu Yulin.
He held nothing back; his muscles and bones throbbed, and with each breath, his power surged once more!
Upon reaching the First Rank rank, a martial artist's body undergoes a transformation; upon reaching the Grandmaster level, the martial artist's body experiences a second transformation.
Aside from a very few exceptionally gifted individuals, Great Grandmaster's pure power is definitely above that of First Rank expert!
However, people never use the standard of being able to lift objects many times their own body weight to measure the strength of Great Grandmaster.
Great Grandmaster is Great Grandmaster because they have reached the pinnacle of achievement in a particular field!
For example, Lu Yulin's marksmanship has reached a completely new level compared to when he fought Lin Qian outside Rong Province City.
Millions of guns are reduced to a single shot, controlling the situation and dominating destiny!
If judged by martial arts standards, his spear technique has transcended mere technique and reached a higher level, completely surpassing the Lu Family Spear Technique system, making him qualified to establish his own school.
This is the true realm of Great Grandmaster!
Spurred on by Wu Shuangren's words, Lu Yulin truly revealed the terrifying nature of his marksmanship.
The attacks remained the same, straight thrusts, seemingly unconnected and simply fast. But with each thrust, the 'gap' that Wu Shuangren could dodge and parry was compressed smaller and smaller!
After a dozen or so shots, Wu Shuangren found himself forced to take Lu Yulin's thrust head-on, unable to dodge or deflect the force.
This is the Spear of Fate!
Bang--
With a deafening roar, Wu Shuangren his broadsword horizontally in front of his chest, blocking the thrusting spear tip. As if struck head-on by a galloping horse, he staggered backward, blood spilling from his mouth, having already suffered internal injuries!
Lu Yulin naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity, and immediately stepped forward to pursue, thrusting his spear forward once more.
Wu Shuangren had completely understood the opponent's spear technique. His 'way out' would become less and less under the pressure of the opponent's spear force, until finally the opponent would pierce through his body with a single spear and take his life.
This is the ' Spear of Fate ' that Lu Yulin has chosen for him!
With the enhancement of [Match for One Person], Wu Shuangren's Internal Skill was raised to an unprecedented level, no less than Lu Yulin's.
However, he demonstrated inferior speed and power compared to his opponent.
Firstly, because his own Internal Skill strength had not yet reached the First Rate level, he was unable to perfectly control this greatly enhanced power.
Secondly, he was at a disadvantage in terms of skill level.
That's right, this is the first time Wu Shuangren has fallen behind in skill after using [Match for One Person]!
After the first enhancement of his Traits, Wu Shuangren could guarantee that his skills were superior to his opponent's, no matter who he faced. Even if he was slower or weaker than his opponent, he could always make up for his disadvantages with more exquisite techniques and take the initiative.
But at this moment, facing Lu Yulin, the Yin-Yang combined "Cloud Tiger Seven Kills" was completely suppressed!
Is it because of the gold Traits?
Wu Shuangren had already seen the [White Qilin] above Lu Yulin's head burning like flames, which meant that the opponent had activated the special buff of the Traits.
Clearly, this enhancement has an effect on martial arts!
"Martial arts skills enhanced with the golden Traits cannot surpass those of [Match for One Person]?"
This thought flashed through Wu Shuangren's mind.
With inferior stats and skills, can [Match for One Person] still guarantee absolute victory?
Or perhaps, is the current [Match for One Person] simply incapable of countering the gold- Traits?
Wu Shuangren wasn't entirely confident about this, but he didn't give up.
Despite being outmatched in speed, strength, and skill, Wu Shuangren showed no sign of defeat!
After exchanging more than fifty blows, Lu Yulin gradually realized that something was wrong.
Wu Shuangren was indeed at a disadvantage, but every move he made was perfect and flawless!
When you are lagging behind others in every aspect, it is almost impossible to make no mistakes and handle every moment perfectly.
But Wu Shuangren did it!
Wu Dongrong once told Wu Shuangren that Great Grandmaster could kill First Rank expert as easily as slaughtering a dog.
Most First Rank experts in this world would find it difficult to withstand even twenty moves from Great Grandmaster.
However, Wu Shuangren had already endured more than fifty moves against Lu Yulin, who was already going all out, and showed no signs of defeat!
Lu Yulin was certain that Wu Shuangren had not reached the Great Grandmaster level, so he couldn't understand how she had done it.
In his plan, he should easily defeat Wu Shuangren, then calmly make him leave his last words, take his life, and finally kill Zhang Da before leaving triumphantly.
This was his first move since becoming Great Grandmaster, and everything should have been simple. He should have been in control of the fate of everyone present.
Unexpectedly, a slight mishap occurred in the very first step...
As Lu Yulin's spear thrusts gradually compressed Wu Shuangren's 'path to survival,' reaching its limit, Wu Shuangren, who should have had no way to avoid or block it, did not step into the fate that Lu Yulin had set for him.
In Lu Yulin's perception, Wu Shuangren was like a 'circle' that had been compressed to the extreme and was perfectly flawless!
Wu Shuangren was indeed suppressed to the point where he couldn't find any opening to counterattack, but Lu Yulin also couldn't find any way to completely defeat Wu Shuangren.
"How is that possible...?"
Lu Yulin was no longer the calm, composed, and all-controlling figure he once was.
Things are gradually slipping out of his control...
On the other side, Lin Qian was charging forward with unparalleled momentum.
The spear whistled and danced, sweeping past like a torrent, knocking away and felling all the heavily armored guards who stood in his way!
The man, armor, and weapons together weighed over two hundred pounds, but under Lin Qian's spear, they were like straws.
The heavily armored guards on both sides clashed, and Zhang Da's guards actually had the upper hand because they had more warriors.
But no one on Zhang Da's side could stop Lin Qian!
Lin Qian didn't believe Wu Shuangren could defeat Lu Yulin. He thought Wu Shuangren's plan was to risk his life to hold off Lu Yulin, allowing him to kill Zhang Da first, defeat the enemy's forces, and then lead a group to surround and attack Lu Yulin, forcing him to retreat.
The key to victory or defeat lies within oneself!
With this in mind, Lin Qian unleashed his full strength, sparing no effort to unleash his potential, all in an attempt to kill Zhang Da as quickly as possible.
He sent heavily armored soldiers flying one by one, tore through the defensive line, and extended his army's advance right up to Zhang Da!
Seeing this, the group of experts who had come with Lu Yulin all stepped forward and blocked Lin Qian's path.
"Instructor Lin, why bother?"
Yan Xiaobing looked at Lin Qian and sighed.
He knew Lu Yulin planned to kill both Wu Shuangren and Zhang Da, but Zhang Da couldn't die until Lu Yulin and Wu Shuangren had settled their score.
Lin Qian remained silent, only drawing his gun, its force engulfing Yan Xiaobing like a raging tide!
Yan Xiaobing's expression changed, and he immediately adopted a defensive stance.
At the same time, Liang An, wielding two swords, also joined the battle, fighting alongside Yan Xiaobing against Lin Qian.
Liang An felt humiliated by Lin Qian's words when he broke with everyone. Today, Lu Yulin was mainly after Wu Shuangren and Zhang Da, but he wanted to kill Lin Qian even more!
But after only a dozen or so exchanges, the two were in grave danger!
Both of them had witnessed Lu Yulin and Lin Qian's fight before and knew that Lin Qian was very strong. Before coming here this time, the two practiced their combined attack technique against Lin Qian's marksmanship and received guidance from Lu Yulin.
But after they actually fought, the two of them truly felt the gap between themselves and Lin Qian!
It's like being caught in a storm at sea; all your moves are swallowed up, and then you're swept away by an even stronger storm...
The two First Rate masters, who had specifically practiced combined attack techniques, quickly developed the illusion that they were facing Lin Qian alone.
"In the world today, apart from those few Great Grandmaster, I'm afraid no one can rival him!"
Yan Xiaobing and Liang An both had this idea in mind, and they called on the other experts who had come with them to come and help them besiege Lin Qian.
Zhang Da was also First Rate top-notch fighter, but he dared not join the battle. Instead, he ordered his personal guards to help besiege Lin Qian.
He just wants to stall until Lu Yulin wins, then everything will be settled.
Even with two First Rate experts, more than a dozen experts of the Fifth Rank, and a group of heavily armored guards joining forces, they were still forced to retreat by Lin Qian alone!
Lin Qian wore only a light armor, and he attacked relentlessly, each move a desperate struggle. Even when he was struck by swords and spears, his armor cracked, leaving wounds, his offensive did not diminish in the slightest!
Every now and then, someone would be pierced through the body by a sudden thrust of spear light, or blasted away by an immense force...
Lu Yulin noticed the battle situation out of the corner of his eye. Based on his understanding of Lin Qian's strength, he believed that if Lin Qian really risked his life, he could kill Zhang Da!
In this way, the situation will completely slip out of their control.
Lu Yulin felt that the scene was somewhat familiar.
In that battle Yi Prefecture City, my own forces were also at risk of being wiped out. It was also a one-on-one fight between myself and Wu Shuangren, and the outcome of the battle determined the course of the war.
Could today's outcome be the same as that day?
How could this be!
