Chapter 491: Section 278: Golden Level Weapons Can’t Break the Defense?
Four Silver Level individuals had rented out a VIP Observation Room.
The room isolated them from the general public, creating a private space where tranquility highlighted their nobility.
The walls around were built using alchemy techniques, allowing the users to turn them completely transparent or into one-way mirrors with just Spirit Manipulation.
The main feature, however, was to transform the dueling field’s scenes into Magic Images, which were then displayed for those in the room.
The Magic Images could be enlarged or reduced, brought nearer or farther, making it an ideal means for watching the duel.
Seats outside did not require tickets, but renting such a VIP Observation Room did cost money.
The elf woman with black frame glasses was not short on money.
She owned three Alchemy Workshops and was a top-tier alchemy master in Snowbird Port.
She had hurried over from the docks and easily rented the VIP room due to her status.
At that moment, the largest wall was displaying the Magic Image.
The images of the Dragon-man youth and Xiong Ju felt as if they were just inches away.
The bearded Dwarf observed Xiong Ju and couldn’t help but frown, “I’ve never seen Xiong Ju carry so many weapons before.”
The elderly Human observed the Dragon-man youth more, “Except for two alchemy crossbows, the leader of the Long Fu is almost unarmed. That’s too careless of him; he isn’t a Martial Monk but an arms smuggler, how could he possibly lack weapons?”
The elf woman with black frame glasses adjusted her glasses and speculated, “Perhaps there’s storage equipment on the Long Fu’s body. Let’s watch and see. No matter what he’s hiding, this duel will force his hand.”
“Similarly, we’ll be able to clearly observe whether Xiong Ju’s combat power has increased or decreased in recent years.”
Another Snow Elf nodded in agreement.
The newly arrived Dragon-man youth had already shown the demeanor of a strong contender, certain to become a formidable competitor in Snowbird Port.
And Xiong Ju from the Saber Gang was an established Silver Level fighter.
Anyone living in Snowbird Port inevitably had dealings with the Saber Gang.
Therefore, watching either party closely was worthwhile.
Xiong Ju scanned the surrounding crowd, then fixed his gaze on the face of the Dragon-man youth, sneering, “Long Fu, challenging our Gang Leader takes guts, but it’s also stupid! Today, I’ll teach you a lesson and show everyone what happens when they challenge the Saber Gang.”
His attitude was extremely arrogant and domineering.
The Dragon-man youth laughed heartily, his eyes brimming with eager fighting spirit, “It seems you’re going all out today, good. I like maintaining this momentum, regardless of the outcome.”
His poised and unyielding demeanor instantly stirred a tyrannical intent in Xiong Ju’s heart.
“You talk too much; I’ll tear your mouth first!”
Xiong Ju made the first move, charging towards the Dragon-man youth.
The distance between them was already short, and Xiong Ju reached the youth in a few strides.
He threw a punch directly at the Dragon-man youth’s face.
The Dragon-man youth dodged to the side, blocking Xiong Ju’s fist with his left arm while his right fist swung out, aiming a blasting hit just below Xiong Ju’s ribs.
Xiong Ju stepped back, swinging a Heavy Punch with the other hand.
Bang!
A muffled sound echoed as both fists collided directly, clashing hard.
Both retreated a step, equally matched.
Without any pause for breath, the Dragon-man youth and Xiong Ju rushed at each other again.
Initially, there were evasive and blocking moves, but gradually their punches sped up and became fiercer.
Eventually, they fought spiritedly, not dodging or blocking, solely focusing on attacking, simply enduring each other’s punches and kicks with their bodies.
For a moment, fists flew and the air whistled with their blows.
The audience in the dueling field, watching the two combat fiercely and bravely, couldn’t help but get excited.
Cheers and shouts of encouragement rose through the dueling field.
After a moment of intense fighting, Xiong Ju suddenly lifted his leg, flipping a floor tile toward the Dragon-man youth.
The Dragon-man youth’s vision filled with the tile, and sensing danger, he quickly stepped back.
Indeed, the next moment Xiong Ju used a dirty trick, crouching low and reaching out to grab strongly at the Dragon-man youth’s lower body.
The Dragon-man youth reacted in time, retreating swiftly and evading the attack.
Seeing his aggressive attacks not suppressing the Dragon-man youth, Xiong Ju started using low and dirty tactics commonly used by street thugs.
Such combat skills were deeply ingrained in him.
Throughout his life, he had fought countless battles in the streets and alleys.
That was his true nature!
Initially, the Dragon-man youth was somewhat unaccustomed and appeared flustered.
But as Xiong Ju kept using sly moves, after seeing them enough times, the Dragon-man youth gradually grew accustomed.
After a short period of fighting, Xiong Ju began to breathe heavily, becoming increasingly frustrated.
“Long Fu is indeed tricky,” Xiong Ju rarely encountered such opponents.
Usually, under his fierce and strong attacks, few could stand against him.
Typically, it was Xiong Ju who had the upper hand, forcing his opponent to resort to Combat Skills in an attempt to turn the situation around.
But this time, it was he who had to resort to Combat Skills first.
His punches became more intense and faster.
Xiong Ju’s fists shimmered with a silver glow, his threat level skyrocketing.
With the Combat Skill deployed, it officially marked the end of the probing phase for both sides, also indicating that Xiong Ju was at a disadvantage during the probing.
The Dragon-man youth was mentally prepared, ducked and quick sidestepped, dodging Xiong Ju’s Combat Skill.
Then, he too executed his most skilled attack.
Combat Skill—Blast Fist.
Xiong Ju was struck by the Blast Fist, his body flying backwards through the air.
The Dragon-man youth pressed his advantage, but Xiong Ju quickly adjusted his posture mid-air, combining both fists and smashed down hard towards the oncoming Dragon-man youth.
Combat Skill—Heavy Hammer Fist!
The Dragon-man youth extended his left palm, his palm exploding out, propelling his entire body sharply to the right.
Bang.
Xiong Ju’s fists smashed into the floor tiles, the force of the Combat Skill creating a shallow crater in the ground.
As he landed on both feet, the Dragon-man youth was already charging at him again.
The slender red figure of the Dragon-man youth and the massive black body of Xiong Ju constantly tangled.
The two of them moved back and forth at the center of the dueling field, their battle intensity growing fiercer.
Many strong individuals outside the field had begun to see the pattern.
“Although Xiong Ju is powerful, surprisingly, the Long Fu squad leader seems to have gained a slight upper hand.”
“In comparison, Long Fu is more agile, able to dodge most of Xiong Ju’s attacks. Whereas Xiong Ju, with his bulkier and heavier body, often finds himself on the defensive against the Dragon-man youth, putting him at a disadvantage.”
“The main reason for this situation is Long Fu’s combat experience. Though young, his experience in battle is remarkably vast, which neutralizes many of Xiong Ju’s sneaky moves.”
Combat Skill—Barbaric Charge.
Combat Skill—Bear Pounce!
Xiong Ju spread his legs and charged headlong.
His arms widely opened, exposing his chest as he bravely rushed towards the Dragon-man youth.
Using two Combat Skills simultaneously caused both his legs and arms to flash with a silver light.
Initially retreating, the Dragon-man youth suddenly pushed off the ground with his back legs, charging towards Xiong Ju.
Caught off guard, Xiong Ju instinctively crossed his arms in front of his chest.
But at that moment, the Dragon-man youth had already used a rapid Combat Skill to cleverly neutralize Xiong Ju’s Bear Pounce.
Xiong Ju lunged at the air.
The surrounding audience erupted in cheers.
Feeling mocked, Xiong Ju roared lowly, his eyes reddened, filled with even more hatred for the Dragon-man youth.
Such is battle, missing by a fraction can lead to errors by a mile.
No matter how impressive Xiong Ju’s presence was, missing his opponent was futile.
Xiong Ju drained a great deal of his physical strength and Fighting energy, with little to show for it.
His mood grew even more irritable, and he reached behind his back to pull out his primary weapon.
Golden Level weapon—Golden Flower Steel Saw!
Typically, Silver Level fighters seldom possess Golden Level equipment.
It’s considered a luxury. The money that could buy a Golden Level weapon might instead supply various other enhancements, resulting in a Silver Level with no shortcomings and superior overall strength.
If spent solely on a Golden Level weapon, it could easily create a situation strong in attack but weak in defense, allowing an opponent to easily target the weakness, rendering the investment not worth the outcome.
Given his high position as the chief of the six leaders of the Saber Gang and the substantial perks that came with his authority, Xiong Ju could afford to buy a weapon beyond his level after covering his basic needs.
The length of the Golden Flower Steel Saw was alike to a Two-Handed Great sword.
With the steel saw in hand, Xiong Ju’s attack range suddenly more than doubled.
The Dragon-man youth was encapsulated within his range, darting left and right, agile as a fish.
Xiong Ju channeled Silver Fighting Spirit into the Golden Flower Steel Saw, its teeth rotating rapidly, while the gem embedded in the handle shone with a sandy yellow glow.
Under the yellow light, the Dragon-man youth’s movements slowed by 50%, and his body suddenly sank as if burdened by a tremendous weight.
Disturbed by this, the Dragon-man youth failed to dodge adequately and was struck by the Golden Flower Steel Saw across the chest.
The sharp teeth instantly tore through the golden silk chain armor.
The golden silk chain armor was also of the Golden Level.
During the fierce clash between Golden Level offensive and defensive equipment, a burst of dazzling sparks was produced.
The sparks converged in mid-air, forming clusters of golden flowers.
The sharp edges of the golden flowers swirled and darted like darts, tracing various arcs in the air and targeting weak spots such as the Dragon-man youth’s eyes and nose.
The Dragon-man youth wasn’t surprised by this scene, as he had already gathered detailed information about Xiong Ju’s primary weapon and its effects.
The golden flowers were fragile.
With a Blast Fist, the Dragon-man youth quickly burst the golden flowers.
For the flowers that didn’t burst immediately, the Dragon-man youth would either stretch out his arms or block them with Dragon Scales.
But this undoubtedly slowed his combat rhythm.
Seizing the opportunity, Xiong Ju launched a fierce attack.
Different from their previous exchanges, in this round of attacks, he repeatedly struck the Dragon-man youth.
Each heavy, forceful strike from the Golden Flower Steel Saw sparked off the golden silk chain mail.
Bright, dazzling sparks quickly turned into clusters of golden flowers, attacking the Dragon-man youth all over.
The Dragon-man youth was at a disadvantage.
The surface of the golden silk chain mail rapidly accumulated many scars and even some gaps.
Previously, when he was fighting the Spring Boxer, the golden silk chain armor had also been damaged.
But the level of damage wasn’t as severe as it was now.
Within just a few minutes, Xiong Ju inflicted more damage on the golden silk chain mail than the Spring Boxer had.
Golden Level weapons were indeed formidable!
Even though the Dragon-man youth was mentally prepared, facing the actual situation still proved very troubling.
Xiong Ju, however, felt no joy but was filled with shock!
“Why is Long Fu’s defensive power so strong?!”
He had never encountered such an opponent.
Many times, his Golden Flower Steel Saw had solidly struck Long Fu.
Yet it hadn’t even scratched a single Dragon Scale!
If it were Holy Domain Level or Legendary Level, Xiong Ju would have accepted it, but the key was that the Dragon-man youth was only Silver Level.
It made Xiong Ju start to wonder if his Golden Flower Steel Saw was fake.
“What kind of Bloodline does he have to possess such hard Dragon Scales?”
“I thought Long Fu’s defense was already exaggerated enough, but it turns out to be beyond my wildest expectations.”
“Could it be that Golden Level weapons can’t do anything to his Dragon Scales?”
“Not even able to break through, that’s just too outrageous.”
The observers were all in an uproar.
The shock was not just among ordinary individuals; many strong ones also widened their eyes, finding it utterly incredible.
They were all deceived by the Deception and Disguise Skill, unaware that the Dragon-man youth was actually wearing a layer of golden silk chain armor.
And under the relentless cutting of the Golden Flower Steel Saw, the layer of golden silk chain mail was increasingly damaged.
