Chapter 338: What Happened?
Centered on the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint, a strange scene appeared. The outer circle was the exploding golden light, and within that golden light, closely surrounding him, was a circle of black ripples, as if space itself was being torn apart.
The two figures dashed past him and flickered momentarily before quickly moving dozens of meters away, out of the range of the exploding golden light.
The two figures then merged into one, landing gracefully without raising any dust.
On the other side, the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint also landed, the strange look in his eyes turning into a grave expression.
Both sides stared at each other from a distance of dozens of meters, neither rushing to make a move.
What? What just happened?
Ninety-nine percent of the audience couldn\'t understand what had happened. Yet the most astounded ones were not them, but the one percent who did understand. The stronger the spectator, the more intense the shock in their eyes.
Si Ru looked a bit dazed as he stared blankly at the scene. Meanwhile, Guan Longjiang, Mu Enqing, and Mu Yunyu, who had thought Tang San was about to be killed, slowly sat back in shock.
Just like them, the other human spectators were stunned.
"He..." Si Ru muttered a single word.
Zhang Haoxuan\'s mouth was twitching as well. His hands had clenched into fists at some point, but he still muttered, "Isn\'t he amazing? Isn\'t the disciple I taught amazing?"
As god-level beings, they could only vaguely discern what happened during the collision through their divine consciousness.
The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint\'s strike infused all his physical, bloodline, and spiritual power into a world-shattering blow. Even as god-level powerhouses, they felt an intense threat in that instant. Although the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint was not yet at the tenth order, his strike, infused with the Lion-Tiger Golden Astral, did have explosive power at that level.
With the terrifying physique and bloodline power that were the result of a dual lion-tiger bloodline, the strike was so powerful that the two gods couldn’t imagine anyone below the tenth order stopping it. More importantly, the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint’s spirit locked onto the opponent, making sure they couldn’t escape. In other words, they could neither block nor dodge.
And yet, someone had just dodged it!
Tang San used miraculous footwork to dodge it, like a phantom, avoiding the sharp edge and slipping past his opponent.
As he passed by his opponent, Tang San’s figure swayed. It wasn’t because of his opponent’s power, but rather because he was looking for an opening. The hammer in his hand was already poised to strike.
The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint also demonstrated his formidable combat ability in that instant. He forcibly pulled back, even though he had just gone all out; his power flowed back into him and he burst forth with a technique that integrated offense and defense, not giving Tang San any chance to attack.
It could be said that both sides\' responses at that moment were superbly executed.
The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint\'s aura appeared grand and majestic, but the god-level powerhouses understood that Tang San\'s dodge in that instant was the truly impressive feat.
Such an evasion meant one thing: either the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint had not truly locked onto him, or Tang San had easily broken free from the lock. What did this imply? It implied that Tang San\'s spiritual power was above the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint’s, and by a significant margin..
Si Ru thought to himself that he could block the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint\'s strike, but it would be a close call and he’d have to use his divine consciousness. Evading the strike was impossible, and even if he could dodge, he would choose not to. When facing such a strike that embodied the full physical, bloodline, and spiritual power of his opponent, dodging was not an option. A second attack would immediately follow, and then a third, and he would fall into a disadvantage against such onslaught. With that in mind, it made much more sense to block it head-on and try to counterattack.
Yet in such a situation, Tang San had not only evaded the opponent\'s attack, but also prevented him from following up with a second one. This was terrifying! It meant he might genuinely be able to face the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint head-on.
As Tang San and the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint went through their first clash instantly, the battle on the other side also began.
The other four members of the Unbeatable Squad unleashed their abilities, sending four powerful attacks toward the four members of the Shrek Squad.
However, at that moment, the golden array patterns under the feet of the Shrek Squad members changed. In the next instant, the four figures vanished into thin air. Even as the Spirit Elevation Array was still active, the teleportation array also activated, shifting all of them to the opposite side of the battlefield..
The attacks of the four Unbeatable Squad members hit empty air.
Among the Shrek Squad members who had reappeared in the distance, Du Bai had a smug expression and even beckoned mockingly at the four opponents.
Three days ago, when Tang San was planning the tactics, he first analyzed the situation for everyone. In the Unbeatable Squad, only the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint was a true powerhouse. Yet the other four members were not to be underestimated either. A demon at the ninth order and three at the eighth order would be difficult for Wu Bingji and the others to defeat head-on without sustaining injuries. The gap in cultivation levels was challenging to overcome.
However, it was noted that the four teammates of the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint were all inclined towards close combat, at most mid-range attacks, and none were adept at long-range attacks. Even the member who was relatively good at control had limited range.
The Aetherhorn Deer Demon King had just returned the array discs to them.
Thus, Tang San\'s strategy was to face the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint himself. At the same time, his teammates would use the teleportation array disc to engage in guerrilla tactics, draining the opponent\'s bloodline power. This responsibility mainly fell on Du Bai.
Du Bai\'s spiritual power was the greatest among the team, only below Tang San’s. With his spiritual power, the teleportation array disc could be used every ten seconds without excessive strain.
Tang San had asked Du Bai if he wanted to be the protagonist of this battle. Naturally, Du Bai did. Tang San then told him, "We\'ll employ a kiting strategy."
The strategy was simple: using the array disc, they would constantly widen the distance between themselves and the opponents, forcing them to chase and attack, thereby exhausting their bloodline power while also seeking their weaknesses.
Without a doubt, even if the opponents believed their strength surpassed the Shrek Squad\'s, they would not dare to split up and pursue them lightly. That would be suicidal. With Wu Bingji\'s explosive attacks, the powerful control of the Chrono Croc Transformation, and Cheng Zicheng\'s aerial assaults, even a ninth-order opponent would have a hard time if isolated. Since their opponents were not adept at long-range attacks, they had no choice but to stay together and chase.
During the constant shifting, the Shrek Squad would look for opportunities to counterattack. Tang San told Du Bai that the more he could teleport, the greater their chances of winning. This prospect excited Du Bai; finally, he had the chance to be the protagonist!
At this moment, the Three-Tailed Celestial Fox, a luck-bringer with a first-tier bloodline, was fully focused and extremely excited. Meanwhile, Wu Bingji and the other two were continuously gathering strength and looking for opportunities.
