Chapter 715 - NOCTIS VS RAZOR (II)

THE audience stared at the battle happening in front of them in awe. No, they actually couldn't see what was happening clearly because of how fast the two moved. All they could see were blurry images of the two. It's like watching Quicksilver fighting against the Flash.

Okay, that might be a bit of an exaggeration. But that's exactly how the audience felt watching the two. It was even more amazing because the two were fighting with just their brute strength alone and not with the use of any skills.

On the box of team Yunyue, Luo Wei Tian gulped. He couldn't follow the movements of the two people fighting. One second, they were on that part of the rink, the next they were on the opposite side. If he was in his real body, he might not even see the after-images of the two people. And one of those two was his second son.

This was totally different from the fight yesterday. Really, if he didn't know beforehand who was fighting over there, it would not even probably cross his mind that one of those two players was his son. Luo Yan who always had a sweet smile on his face and who loved to act cute and spoiled around him.

Thanks to the virtual screen floating around, he could have a glimpse of Luo Yan's face. There was no fear or even worry in his son's face. Instead, he was grinning, clearly enjoying the fight.

Luo Wei Tian suddenly felt like he was watching Luo Yan grow up before his very eyes. As if the image of an innocent kid in his mind was slowly disappearing. Instead, what he's seeing was a confident teenager enjoying his youth. 

For some reason, he felt relieved. The worry that Luo Yan wouldn't be able to live normally because of being in a coma for seven years finally disappeared at this moment. It was something that had constantly been nagging at him ever since his son regained consciousness. 

But looking at Luo Yan now, smiling so happily, he felt like some invisible stone weighing in his heart was finally put down. And a smile unconsciously crossed his lips.

The source of this smile, Luo Yan, just moved his head back and the blade of a dagger passed by his chin. At the same time, he thrusted one of his daggers to the side of his opponent. But just like him, Razor easily dodged it. Luo Yan knew that would happen so his other dagger was already waiting on the direction where the other moved.

But it seemed that Razor also predicted his next move, so, he stopped mid-way and jumped back instead. He didn't give the other a chance to rest and quickly rushed forward. Razor also didn't shy away and also met him. They clashed once again. The clang of metals hitting one another echoed around the colosseum.

Luo Yan wasn't sure how many minutes had passed since their match started. The fact that he couldn't tell showed how much fun he'd been having. But he knew that this couldn't continue. In regards to strength and speed, the two of them were almost on equal grounds. 

Then, let's go and used some skill.

He chose to use the [8th Movement Dance]. It was a skill that produced eight consecutive attacks in a dance-like manner.  Each attack was stronger than the last, making the eighth attack the strongest.  It's attacking power was not that high but it only had one second cooldown.  That's why it didn't really matter. Because one could just continuously use it.

Cai Hong narrowed his eyes. The moment the other's movement started to change, he knew that Noctis must have used a skill. In that case, it would be best for him to do the same. 

It's not like he didn't understand why the other suddenly used a skill. With their stats almost on equal grounds, this match would definitely end up a battle of attrition if they continued with how they had been fighting until now. They needed a break to change the status quo.

So, he also used a skill – [Raving Slash]. It's a skill that would allow the user to continuously slash at the opponent at a fast speed. Each strike that he managed to hit would decrease the opponent's AGI. The more strike he managed to land, the slower the opponent would be. 

This skill didn't have that much power. But it's duration of use was long and only had a cooldown of 10 seconds. That meant he could use it for a couple of times continuously.

And so, the four daggers met in the air.

But because the two didn't know that the skills they both used were almost similar, they ended up in the same situation as before. The only difference was they didn't appear like blurry images now.

In the audience eyes, Noctis's movement looked elegant and graceful. He seemed to be dancing instead of attacking. While Razor, on the other hand, looked barbaric and rough. Like a silent killer who couldn't wait to slit the throat of his enemy.

This contrast was so eye-catching that people couldn't help but think that Noctis was some immortal god while Razor was a demon trying to kill him. And so, majority of the crowd cheered for Noctis. 

"Noctis!!! Go and wreck him!!!"

"Noctis!!! Beat him to death!!!"

"Noctis! Noctis! Noctis!"

After he used [8th Movement Dance] for the second time, Luo Yan noticed that they were going nowhere again. So, he made a decision. He moved as if he used the [8th Movement Dance] skill once again. Then, at the middle, without changing his posture, he used [Strike Kill].

It's one of his stronger attacks against a single enemy. The blade of his dagger made an upward arc. It seemed that Razor didn't expect this action as he didn't manage to dodge on time. But the other was still able to jump backward at the last moment. Thus, slashing on his mask and hood.

When Razor landed, his face was completely revealed to everyone.
