Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 41: Completely Controlled, Counterattack with Instantaneous Movement!
Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Completely Controlled, Counterattack with Instantaneous Movement!
Chen Shun’s smile grew even brighter as he continued his fierce attack, with Xiao Zhan about to be taken down by him.
But as his continuous attacks went on, he noticed something amiss, especially after attacking for two to three minutes, this feeling of wrongness became increasingly prominent.
He discovered that no matter how sharp or cunning his attacks were, Xiao Zhan could always fend them off, avoiding a complete collapse.
Perhaps it was somewhat clumsy, and perhaps risky, but Xiao Zhan was truly blocking them.
Although Chen Shun was ferocious, he was never able to inflict substantial damage on Xiao Zhan.
His smile grew heavier; his Spirit Manipulation Energy had already been depleted by half. If it continued like this, he feared he might get worn out to death by Xiao Zhan.
He started to see Xiao Zhan in a new light.
The invisible sword could block every strike; Xiao Zhan was indeed not simple.
Below the stage, everyone held their breath at this moment, even Lin Dong, who had been cheering for Xiao Zhan, was no longer shouting.
They had thought that after Chen Shun used his skills, Xiao Zhan would be defeated, and even if he could hold on, he would last no longer than two moves.
But to their absolute astonishment, Xiao Zhan was actually blocking them!
What’s more, to their growing amazement, Xiao Zhan was not only blocking, but he also countered every subsequent sword strike!
My God!
This was incredible!
They couldn’t see even a hair of the sword, so how could Xiao Zhan block with such precision?
Was he cheating?
Zhao Long stood below the stage, his expression exceedingly grave as he muttered to himself, "Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan, your strength really is beyond my expectations. However, it’s a pity that mere strength won’t get you first place!"
A fierce look flashed in Zhao Long’s eyes!
On the stage, Chen Shun spoke while attacking.
"Xiao Zhan, you truly are a man chosen by Ye Youlong, your strength indeed exceeded my expectations. But if you only know defense, you won’t be able to beat me!"
After speaking, his form shifted, and his approach changed. He no longer chose to execute a continuous series of strong and rapid attacks, but instead used movement techniques and various feints to disrupt Xiao Zhan’s defense while looking for opportunities to launch surprise attacks.
This way, he could effectively conserve his Spirit Manipulation Energy while also exerting psychological pressure on Xiao Zhan.
Surrounded but unattacked, Xiao Zhan’s mental defenses would collapse, and his actions would naturally be affected.
That would be the time for Chen Shun to decisively turn the tables!
As expected, with this change, the effect was immediate. Because the weapon was invisible, Chen Shun’s feints became more illusory, leaving Xiao Zhan unsure whether to block or not. In an instant, his defenses became even more disordered.
Chen Shun, once again, felt proud as he continuously executed moves that left Xiao Zhan in disarray.
Just then, a glint of light flashed in Chen Shun’s eyes!
"Now is the time!"
He seized the opportunity when Xiao Zhan’s defenses had a gap.
His right wrist twisted, and the Wave Light Sword stabbed out accurately at the angle.
At this moment, with Xiao Zhan’s vulnerability exposed, Chen Shun’s timing was perfect; Xiao Zhan was panicked and it was too late to block with the Artifact Spirit, so his only choice was to dodge sideways to avoid the strike.
And at the same moment when he shifted his body, a cunning glint suddenly appeared in Chen Shun’s eyes.
As he thrust forward with his right hand, his left hand was silently stabbing towards Xiao Zhan’s chest!
What was more shocking was that his left hand was now in a sword-gripping position, while his right hand was merely holding a feint!
Judging from the force and muscle deformation of both hands, it was clear that the sword was in the left hand, and the right hand was empty!
Building a plank road while secretly traversing through Chen Cang!
He had switched the Wave Light Sword to his left hand, the key point being that no one noticed.
Xiao Zhan was currently focused on dodging the attack from his right, in a state where his old strength had not yet dissipated, and new power had not yet arisen; thus, it was practically impossible for him to dodge Chen Shun’s overtly straightforward yet covert attack.
Even if his mind reacted in time, his body wouldn’t be able to keep up.
Chen Shun’s face already bore the color of victory; as long as this thrust of his sword struck Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan’s defenses would be completely shattered, and he would be at Chen Shun’s mercy!
The blade was sharp, carrying with it an icy chill.
Just as it was about to pierce Xiao Zhan, at that moment, Xiao Zhan, who was dodging to the side, suddenly made a strange movement.
Without even looking, he reflexively kicked backward, striking precisely against the hidden Wave Light Sword!
Clang! freēwēbηovel.c૦m
The Wave Light Sword was sent flying!
Chen Shun’s perfect wave of attacks was dissolved so easily.
Chen Shun’s face was full of shock, his eyes filled with disbelief!
How could this be!
How could Xiao Zhan have seen the sword in his hand?
It wasn’t in the right hand, but in the left!
And how did he react so quickly, knowing that his previous state was uncontrollable, with his old momentum exhausted and new strength not yet arisen, a situation where there was no second point of leverage.
Even if his brain had reacted, his body wouldn’t have been able to make the move!
How did he do it?
Wait, unless...
Unless he knew from the beginning!
Chen Shun’s gaze suddenly shot towards Xiao Zhan like torches, and sure enough, he saw a hint of amusement on Xiao Zhan’s face, the previously flustered expression completely gone!
Especially when he noticed Chen Shun looking at him, he even revealed a look of cunning triumph!
"He was pretending!"
Chen Shun spat out blood, Xiao Zhan had been playing him like a monkey!
The disheveled appearance he had shown before was all an act!
What kind of strength did he really have?
To actually ignore his Wave Light Sword!
While Chen Shun was stunned, the Death Demon Scythe in Xiao Zhan’s hand was also swiftly swept out at this moment, the scythe’s blade carrying a wailing sound, piercing straight towards Chen Shun’s chest.
Chen Shun snapped back to reality in alarm and hastily tried to dodge, but regrettably, it was still a step too late, and the Death Demon Scythe solidly struck against his chest.
Thump!
It felt like a giant rock crashing against his chest!
Intense pain accompanied by the loss of equilibrium in his body, Chen Shun was knocked to the ground by the Demon Scythe, sliding a distance of twenty to thirty meters before he barely stopped.
When he finally stopped, he vomited a mouthful of fresh blood, and when he looked at his chest, several ribs were broken, caved in.
Xiao Zhan seized this excellent opportunity, instantly closing the distance with a sudden dash, the blade of the Death Demon Scythe now pressed against Chen Shun’s head!
"You’ve lost."
Had Chen Shun been an enemy, Xiao Zhan would have simply cut off his head.
But this was a competition, so defeating him was all that was required.
Chen Shun looked at Xiao Zhan with suppressed frustration, the disdain in his eyes undiminished, he scoffed coldly, "I’ve lost? It’s not over until the last moment; it’s not certain who will lose!"
Before the words could even fade, Chen Shun suddenly vanished from in front of Xiao Zhan!
With a speed that left no opportunity for reaction!
Then, a piercing cold chill transmitted from Xiao Zhan’s back.
It was Chen Shun who had teleported behind Xiao Zhan, not holding back as he thrust a sword directly at Xiao Zhan!
"Instantaneous Movement?"
Xiao Zhan’s eyes flickered.
