Chapter 288 - 288: Fight to the Death (1)
“Let the competition begin!’
Moxiu stood in place without moving. Dai Zhengyou’s skills were very specialized. There were a total of four skills. Interruption was one of them. The other three skills had similar effects. They either increased speed or increased attack.
MO Xiu didn’t attack because he wanted to see how Dai Zhengyou would attack.
Dai Zhengyou was not panicking either. He appeared very confident. A dagger appeared out of thin air and released four skills.
After that, he quickly approached Moxiu. Moxiu released his Sword Saint weapon, but his sword did not come out.
Motheo looked at the skill and saw that it had entered a three-second cooldown. He had successfully interrupted it.
At the same time, Dai Zhengyou immediately released his second skill, Phantom, in order to increase his speed. During the reaction time when Moxiu’s skill was interrupted, he could launch a limited attack.
Moxiu noticed his friend’s movements and immediately used the Descent of the Martial God to turn around.
At this moment, Dai Zhengyou activated all of his skills, including Backstab. This attack was the highest damage he could deal. He wanted to end MO Xiu in one hit.
However, he was only halfway through when he realized that Moxiu had turned around. What kind of reaction speed was this? Was he still human?
The move had already been launched, and it was impossible to retract it. Dai Zhengyou could only brace himself and stab out with this attack. Even if he couldn’t hit Moxiu, Moxiu would definitely dodge. At that time, he could open up space and continue to look for an opportunity.
Dai Zhengyou’s thoughts were the thoughts of the audience. This thunderous attack would not be able to hit Moxiu. The two of them would once again widen the distance.
But… What happened next made everyone’s hearts tremble, and fear rose from the bottom of their hearts.
Moxiu turned around and didn’t dodge. Instead, he raised his left arm to receive the attack.
The dagger pierced through Moxiu’s forearm. As the blade of the dagger went through the arm, the bone in the arm did not break. At this moment, MO Xiu’s gaze was unforgettable.
Ruthless, extremely ruthless!
He was so ruthless that he had to endure such a serious blow.
Moxiu’s actions and eyes revealed a message. This was not an ordinary match. It was a life-and-death battle!
Looking at Moxiu’s eyes, Dai Zhengyou was afraid. It was impossible for him not to be afraid. It was obvious that Moxiu wanted to kill him.
Dai Zhengyou lost all will to fight. He wanted to pull out his dagger and escape immediately.
However, the dagger was stuck in Moxiu’s bones and could not be pulled out at all.
Dai Zhengyou was even more afraid. Was this MO Xiu even human? How could a normal person endure the pain and use a bone to hold the dagger?
Dai Zhengyou’s entire body was trembling, and so were all the spectators. This was too terrifying.
Even Liu Ziyang and the others trembled and said, “Is Boss crazy? He could have dodged it, so why did he have to take this hit?”
Yue Yuan and Xiao Hong didn’t say anything and just stared at the screen.
In the arena, Dai Zhengyou didn’t want to continue this match. It didn’t matter if he won or not. MO Xiu had already gone crazy. If he continued, his life might be in danger.
“I admit…” Dai Zhengyou shouted.
If Dai Zhengyou wanted to concede, he could concede in any match within Royal. This was different from the inter-school matches.
Moxiu would not let him succeed. His right hand grabbed Dai Zhengyou’s chin and his palm blocked his mouth.
Dai Zhengyou didn’t concede as he had hoped. His eyes were filled with fear. Right now, he only wanted to concede and had no other thoughts.
“In order to prevent you from saying something you shouldn’t, I need to shut you up first!” said Moxiu.”
“Bang!”
A loud explosion sounded out. Zheng You covered his mouth and rolled on the ground. MO Xiu’s right hand was also burnt black.
At this moment, he let go of Dai Zhengyou and pulled out the dagger from his left arm, throwing it on the ground.
MO Xiu had used the Holy Explosive Flames on Dai Zhengyou just now. In order to prevent Dai Zhengyou from suffering too much damage and losing consciousness, MO Xiu had even used his right hand to block the attack.
Dai Zhengyou lay on the ground, his gaze locked onto MO Xiu. He was unable to make a sound, neither did he counterattack nor escape. He just stared at MO Xiu.
Moxiu knew that this was the effect of the holy flame’s purification of the soul.
However, Dai Zhengyou only managed to remain calm for a few seconds. MO Xiu’s following words filled his heart with fear again.
“Fourth!” said MO Xiu. Xiao Xinru suffered a total of four fatal injuries. Didn’t I say that I would return them in full?”
Everyone was shocked.
Could he survive with four fatal injuries? Was MO Xiu trying to kill someone here?
When Dai Zhengyou heard MO Xiu’s words, he didn’t stay any longer and rushed out of the boundary at full speed.
The giant sword appeared out of thin air and split into three. One of the swords pierced through Dai Zhengyou’s abdomen and nailed him to the ground.
Dai Zhengyou had long panicked and his heart was filled with fear. He did not think of dodging the giant sword at all.
” This is the first area,” MO Xiu said softly.” Next are the second and third areas!
The other two swords also fell and stabbed into Dai Zhengyou’s body.
The three swords were nailed to Dai Zhengyou’s body. He was unable to move at all.
MO Xiu slowly walked over and squatted down.
“Who told you to target Xiao Xinru?” she whispered into Dai Zhengyou’s ear. If you want to tell me, just blink your eyes. The last fatal wound can be avoided, and your chances of survival will be higher.”
Dai Zhengyou’s originally lifeless eyes shone, but then they returned to their lifeless state. He closed his eyes tightly and never opened them again.
It wasn’t that Dai Zhengyou didn’t want to live. Although MO Xiu was crazy, the other side was also someone he couldn’t afford to offend. If he told MO Xiu, he would offend both sides.
If he didn’t say it now, the people there might still be able to save him. This was Dai Zhengyou’s final decision at the moment of life and death.
MO Xiu smiled as he raised his right fist and smashed it down heavily. Dai Zhengyou suffered another heavy blow and could no longer maintain his consciousness. He fainted.
As for Moxiu, he stood up and slowly walked out after throwing a punch.
The results were announced.
“The match has ended. MO Xiu wins.”
Seeing the medical staff quickly carry Dai Zhengyou away, everyone at the scene had the same thought. MO Xiu was too cruel.
However, they didn’t know that MO Xiu had already held back by not killing Dai Zhengyou.
Xiao Xinru’s injuries were on the verge of death, and she could have lost her life at any moment. Dai Zhengyou was much more ruthless than MO Xiu.
Dai Zhengyou would definitely receive a long rescue this time. Whether he could be saved or not would depend on himself.
There was another reason why Moxiu did this, and that was to tell everyone, including the imperial family.
I’m more ruthless than anyone else. If you don’t provoke me, I’ll be polite. If you provoke me, I won’t rest until you die.
When Moxiu walked out of the arena and returned to the ranking square, everyone made way for him.
MO Xiu had gone crazy. He must not be provoked.
Moxiu walked towards the ranking board step by step. He walked very slowly, but every step he took seemed to step on the hearts of everyone present.
It was so heavy and creepy.
Walking back to the rankings, MO Xiu said to Xiao Hong,””Challenge me.”
MO Xiu’s ranking had risen again, and it was not convenient for him to challenge her. After his ‘battle’ with Xiao Hong, he returned to the bottom of the rankings.
He turned around, smiled, and said,”Next!””
