Chapter 187: Third Skill

Firstly, Fluttering Bamboo had already used her skills, and it was impossible to use continuously in a short time. Both Cold Ice Arrow and Flame Arrow needed time to accumulate energy. Now, Fluttering Bamboo must use ordinary attacks to fight against three people.

Secondly, although two among the three opponents were in low blood, because of their Energy Mastery Skill, their attack was high enough. As long as any one of them succeeded in landing an attack, Fluttering Bamboo would either enter the low blood state or directly die.

Such a situation was dangerous. The people present weren’t blind. They could tell the situation.

Merely, the contrast between men and women’s reactions was indeed big.

“Lord Fluttering Bamboo, come on! You are bound to prevail.” Below the stage, all female players cheered, turning into Fluttering Bamboo’s fangirls.

“Stupid! It’s 3V1, the technical ability is basically useless, still thinking she will win!” A male player snorted in contempt.

Both men and women were diametrically opposed. Neither was convinced. Only He Xiang thought inwardly: “Dammit!”

In the arena, those three people took turns to launch energy arrows, forcibly making Fluttering Bamboo unable to take a step forward.

Fluttering Bamboo relied on outstanding reaction speed to dodge fatal attacks over and over again. However, the arena was only so big. While fighting and retreating, there was not much space behind to retreat.

Soon, she retreated to the edge of the arena. If she took a step back, she would lose.

“Now, it’s time for you to retire.” Those three said in unison: “Send her off.”

They were determined to win. After all, at this moment, they three were standing firmly at the center, whereas Fluttering Bamboo was already stuck in a dead-end. If they still lost, then they would not have any face at all.

Unfortunately, their opponent was Fluttering Bamboo, a woman whose operation technique couldn’t be understood by other people.

Fluttering Bamboo coldly smiled and suddenly swayed.

“What is she doing? Honey-trap? It’s amusing!” The men below the stage sneered.

“What do you know! Lord Fluttering Bamboo has a well-thought-out plan!” The women below the stage refuted.

After speaking, the female players looked towards the arena again. They saw that only one was left among those three men, and Fluttering Butterfly was also standing still. They didn’t know what had happened.

He Xiang clapped and praised: “Women can be a match for men, amazing!”

He had witnessed the short battle just now. At that time, Fluttering Bamboo had used her third skill. Yes, strategists innately had three skill slots.

Fluttering Bamboo had just used two skills before. But most people had thought that her third skill was Energy Shield. This was not a stupid judgment. A strategist without Energy Shield was almost helpless to fight back when faced with fatal damage.

Therefore, the strategists would either have Energy Shield or a skill that could replace Energy Shield.

However, Fluttering Bamboo’s third skill was not Energy Shield, rather Energy Arrow. And Energy Arrow was a skill with high damage and a very short preparation time.

“Her scheme is so deep.” That man who didn’t die sighed: “If I hadn’t reacted quickly, and activated Energy Shield in time, blocking a lot of damage, I would have also died.”

He Xiang stepped onto the stage and announced the result with great satisfaction. Tomorrow, Twin Dragons would definitely be happy upon seeing Fluttering Bamboo. Therefore, He Xiang was also happy.

The sky was getting darker. But it was still overcrowded outside Heavenly Dragon Village.

These people were all recruits that came to apply for the vacancy of Heroic Overlord Under Heaven. Their profession was either fighter or strategist. These were also the groups Heroic Overlord Under Heaven wanted to fight for the victory.

In his view, the commander and knight groups were already settled. The archer group had Passionate Archer, so he didn’t want to say more, let alone put in useless efforts. And in the fighter group, although Shake the Heaven, whose strength truly couldn’t be ignored, gave Wu Batian a headache, he just wanted to cause Shake the Heaven trouble.

However, in the strategist group, he attached great importance. If his calculation was not wrong, then the strategist group might be the largest X factor. Regardless of Twin Dragons Village or Heavenly Dragon Village, there had been no apparently good strategist before.

At this moment, Wu Batian’s sharp eyes had seen a remarkable strategist candidate! A female strategist.

Her name was ‘Empress’. She was tall, at least 180 cm by visual estimation. Her figure was absolutely impressive. This was also her real appearance, and many people had seen her. She appeared on television practically throughout the year, was supermodel ‘Wang Wen’, the dream lover of many young boys.

Speaking about it, Wu Batian also had thoughts about Wang Wen before. If it weren’t for Su Xiao’s appearance, he would have also bowed under the empress’s skirt.

Wu Batian returned to the village to rest. He laughed heartily before leaving. From his laughter, one could clearly see a kind of arrogant domineering air, as if he was saying, “Shake the Heaven, Blowing Wind Left A Scar, you two just wait, from now onwards, West Flower Region is the world of I, Wu Batian, alone.”

After a long time, the sky gradually brightened. The dawn had come.

Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao got up early, rode Black Robber Horse and Cloud Mist Beast respectively, and set out to Heavenly Kong Village.

Heavenly Kong Village was located on the western side of Twin Dragons Village, between West Flower Novice Village and West River Dragon Pond. It was also a place that was easy to defend and hard to attack.

After all, in the West Flower Region, there were many places that were easy to defend and hard to attack. It was difficult to find an easy-to-attack village.

At this moment, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao relied on their extremely fast horses and reached outside Heavenly Kong Village before the sky was completely bright.

Soaring Through the Highest Heaven, who was waiting outside, hastily stepped forward to welcome.

The whole village had turned out, and under the gaze of everyone, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao entered Heavenly Kong Village.

The scenery of Heavenly Kong Village was also extremely good. Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao walked with Soaring Through the Highest Heaven taking the lead. Afterward, Soaring Through the Highest Heaven started the final selection competition.

Looking from a distance, beside the arena, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao were sitting side by side. Soaring Through the Highest Heaven, however, was sitting a step below.

Soaring Through the Highest Heaven had insisted on such an arrangement. Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao weren’t so petty. Regardless of anything, Heavenly Kong Village was Soaring Through the Highest Heaven’s village. Although it had joined the Twin Dragons Faction, there was no reason to force him to do such things.

Soaring Through the Highest Heaven said: “One day after I made a great contribution, it wouldn’t be too late to sit in the same place with Twin Dragons in Heavenly Kong Village.”

Not long after, he solemnly announced: “The finals of the selection competition, start!”

Then, Fluttering Bamboo and a man walked onto the arena one after another.

Fluttering Bamboo was still that Fluttering Bamboo. She still had an indifferent expression, which made people unable to understand her thoughts.

As for that man, he seemed to be no longer that man. Upon a closer look, the sadness for his brothers of yesterday had completely gone.

At this moment, his eyes were filled with the calmness of confidence, and determination to defeat Fluttering Bamboo.

Both parties stood in the arena, facing each other…
