Chapter 278: Even a Gold Level Weapon Can’t Break His Defense?

Four silver levels were sitting in the VIP seats.

The seating room was cut off from the masses, forming a privacy that displayed its grand tranquility.

The walls around them used alchemy technology, and when a user used spiritual control, they could be made completely transparent or turn into a unidirectional lens.

Its main function was to turn into a magic image of the dueling grounds that was broadcast to the spectators inside the room.

The magic image could be big or small, far or close, whatever suited the spectators.

Outdoor seating didn’t need to buy tickets, but the VIP seating did.

The black glasses wearing elf didn’t lack coin.

She owned three alchemy workshops and was the best alchemy master in Snow Bird Harbor.

When she came over from the dock, thanks to her status, she easily rented the VIP spectator room.

At this time, the biggest wall was transmitting a magic image.

The image had the dragonman youngster and Xiong Ju in it, as if they were right next to them.

The longbeard dwarf surveyed Xiong Ju, and couldn’t help but purse his brows, “I have never seen Xiong Ju so well equipped.

The old human was more interested in sizing up the dragonman youngster, “Apart from Commander Long Fu’s two alchemy crossbows, he has nothing. This is too arrogant, he is not a martial monk, but an arms smuggler. How could he possibly lack weapons?”

The snow elf put her finger on her black glasses, guessing, “Perhaps Long Fu has a storage device on him, we’ll see what happens. Regardless of what he’s hiding, this duel will force out his trump cards.”

“Similarly, we’ll be able to observe whether Xiong Ju’s fighting strength has risen or fallen these last few years.”

The other snow elf approved of her points.

The dragonman youngster was a newcomer and had already shown off his powerful and graceful bearing, he will be a powerful competitor in Snow Bird Harbor soon.

While the Bayonet Gang’s Xiong Ju was a well-known silver level fighter.

Every single person living in Snow Bird Harbor would unavoidably have a connection with the Bayonet Gang.

Therefore, no matter which of the two it was, both were worth watching carefully.

Xiong Ju ran his eyes over the audience, then fixed his eyes on the dragonman youngster’s face, cackling, “Long Fu, you challenge our gang leader, you’ve got guts, but you’re also really stupid! In today’s battle, I will give you a good lesson and let you all know that I will end your challenge here.”

He had a very arrogant and overbearing attitude.

The dragonman youngster brightly smiled and his eyes were overflowing with battle intent, eager to give it a try, “It seems today you will be fighting with all of your strength, I like that zeal, so no matter who wins or loses, it is good to maintain that enthusiasm.” 

He was neither servile nor overbearing, which immediately caused Xiong Ju to boil with brutalness.

“You can speak well; I’m going to tear out your mouth first!”

Xiong Ju attacked first right then, rushing towards the dragonman youngster.

Both had been quite close to each other, and within a few steps, Xiong Ju came to the dragonman youngster.

He swung his fist at the dragonman youngster’s fist.

The dragonman youngster leaned to the side and raised his left arm to block Xiong Ju’s fist, while swinging his right fist at Xiong Ju beneath his rib.

Xiong Ju took a step back and threw a heavy punch with his other hand.

Ding!

With a dull echo, each other’s fists collided head on precisely in a firm blow.

Both fell back a step, each sharing the limelight.

Neither took a breath before they both attacked each other again.

At first there were dodges and blocks, but gradually, their punches became faster and their movements more violent.

Then, they stopped bothering to dodge and duck, now only focused on attacking and using their bodies to resist the punches and kicks of the other.

For a moment, fists were flying and the air screamed from punches.

When the audience in the dueling arena saw the flurry of fists and the contest of toughness, they couldn’t help but be excited. 

The dueling arena began to fill with cheers and hoots.

After a short period of violence, Xiong Ju suddenly raised his leg and kicked a piece of floor tile at the dragonman youngster.

The dragonman youngster’s field of view was covered by the floor tile, and knowing that was a bad sign, took a large step back.

As expected, a moment later Xiong Ju used a dirty trick, he deliberately lowered his body and aimed his right hand at the dragonman youngster’s lower extremities for a ruthless chop.

The dragonman youngster had retreated in a timely manner and didn’t fall for it.

When Xiong Ju saw his storm of blows couldn’t suppress the dragonman youngster, he started to use many despicable moves commonly used by street gangsters.

These battle arts were engraved into him at the deepest level.

As he grew, he fought in close quarters amongst alleyways a great number of times.

This was his inherent nature!

The dragonman youngster at first couldn’t adapt and seemed somewhat on the off foot.

But the more times Xiong Ju used his treacherous moves, the dragonman youngster gained experience and gradually adapted to them.

After another short period of fighting, Xiong Ju gasped for air, his heart filled with increasing irritation.

“Long Fu is indeed a thorn.” Xiong Ju had rarely encountered such an opponent.

In the past, few people wouldn’t drop like the wind from his violent storm of punches.

Generally speaking, Xiong Ju would always have the upper hand, forcing the other side to prioritize using battle skills in an attempt to recover the situation.

But this time, it was he who was using battle skills first.

Fierce Wind Punch, Accelerate Fists.

Xiong Ju’s fists glistened with a white silver luster, and his threat level rose dramatically.

With battle skills now in play, the probing was formally declared finished, while simultaneously implied that Xiong Ju was on the downturn during the probing phase.

The dragonman youngster had been prepared for this and ducked to avoid Xiong Ju’s battle skill.

Soon after, he too used his most proficient attack skill.

Battle skill – Demolition Fist.

Xiong Ju was struck by Demolition Fist, causing his body to soar into the ark and fly backwards.

The dragonman youngster pressed the attack, but Xiong Ju rapidly adjusted his posture in the air and smashed the dragonman youngster back with both his fists.

Battle skill – Hammer Punch!

The dragonman youngster raised his left palm, and an explosion detonating in it launched his body to the right.

Bang.

Xiong Ju’s fist pounded the floor tiles, and because of the battle skill increasing his attack power, it smashed a shallow hole into the ground.

He had just landed on the floor when the dragonman youngster charged at him again.

The dragonman youngster’s thin red figure was somewhat visible as he tangled constantly with Xiong Ju’s massive black body.

The two fought in the dueling arena, charging, retreating, and fighting with increasingly intense vigor.

The transcendents around the dueling grounds could already made out clues.

“Although Xiong Ju is powerful, Commander Long Fu is still somewhat on top surprisingly.

“Comparing them, Long Fu is more flexible and is able to avoid most of Xiong Ju’s attacks. While Xiong Ju is bigger and heavier, and when faced with that young dragonman’s attack, is often forced into passive defense and has to eat many losses.”

“The main cause of this situation is Long Fu’s battle experience. Although he is young, his combat experience is nevertheless exceptionally rich, therefore, Xiong Ju’s many dirty tricks don’t work on him.”

Battle skill – Barbarous Collision.

Battle skill – Bear Pounce!

Xiong Ju opened his legs and charged forward.

He opened his arms wide, exposing himself, and with incomparable bravery, charged into the dragonman youngster.

While using those two battle skills, his legs and hands both glowed with silver radiance.

The dragonman youngster at first constantly drew back, then suddenly, he sprung from the floor and counter charged Xiong Ju.

Due to the shock, Xiong Ju unconsciously brought his arms to his chest.

But a moment later, the dragonman youngster used Surge and quickly broke out and cleverly neutralized Xiong Ju’s Bear Pounce.

Xiong Ju grabbed nothing.

The audience’s applause disseminated everywhere.

Feeling he was being played with, Xiong Ju angrily roared, and his eyes reddened, hating the dragonman youngster ever more.

In a battle like this, the slightest difference led to grave errors.

No matter how imposing and astonishing Xiong Ju was, if he didn’t hit his opponent, it would be all in vain.

Xiong Ju had expended a large amount of stamina and battle qi yet was unable to exchange it for a good battle result.

He grew more irascible, reaching out now to pull out his main weapon.

The gold level weapon – the Gold Flower Hacksaw!

Generally speaking, silver level fighters rarely had gold level equipment.

Because it was an extravagant act. The money used to purchase gold level equipment could be used to supplement many aspects, make sure a silver level didn’t have any shortcomings, and increase their overall strength.

If one just used their money to buy a gold level weapon, they were liable to have a great offense and a weak defense, an awkward situation an opponent could easily target, as such, the gains didn’t make up for the losses.

Xiong Ju, as the top boss of the Bayonet Gang’s six ringleaders, had a rather high status, and this genuine power also produced great profits capable of making up for the fundamental prerequisites and to pay the expensive price to buy a powerful weapon that surpassed his level.

The Gold Flower Hacksaw was as long as a broadsword.

With hacksaw in hand, Xiong Ju’s attack range immediately doubled.

The dragonman youngster was within his attack range, dodging left and right as nimbly as a fish.

Xiong Ju’s silver battle qi poured into the Gold Flower Hacksaw, causing the hacksaw’s teeth to swiftly turn and the hacksaw’s embedded gemstone to emit an earthen yellow light.

The yellow light caused the dragonman youngster’s speed to slow by 50%, and his body suddenly sank, as if a heavy object was suddenly weighing him down.

Due to this disturbance, the dragonman youngster was unable to evade the Gold Flower Hacksaw slash across his chest.

The sharp teeth instantly tore apart the Gold Silk Chainmail.

The Gold Silk Chainmail was likewise gold level.

The contest of a gold level weapon against a gold level armor created dazzling sparks.

The sparks condensed in the air, forming a golden flower.

The gold flower’s points were sharp, and it spiraled in the wind like darts, cutting through the air in various arcs towards the dragonman youngster’s eyes, ears, nose, and other vulnerable points.

The dragonman youngster wasn’t surprised at this, because the intelligence report on him contained a detailed account of Xiong Ju’s main weapon’s effects.

The golden flower was very frail.

The dragonman youngster used Demolition Fist to explode it to bits in two to three hits.

Without the gold flower, the dragonman youngster could use his arm or dragon scales to block the attack.

But this undoubtedly slowed down his battle tempo.

Xiong Ju seized the opportunity to launch a stream of attacks.

Unlike the prior contests, this time, his attacks slashed the dragonman youngster again and again.

Every blow energetically swung down, causing the Gold Flower Hacksaw to spark abundantly across the Gold Silk Chainmail.

The brilliant dazzling sparks quickly turned into another gold flower that attacked the dragonman youngster all over.

The dragonman youngster was in a disadvantageous position.

The Gold Silk Chainmail was being quickly scared and even had some gaps in it.

Prior to this, the Gold Silk Chainmail was damaged somewhat in his fight against Spring Boxer.

But that damage was far less serious than what was occurring now.

Xiong Ju had managed to damage the Gold Silk Chainmail far more in a few minutes than everything Spring Boxer was ever able to.

The gold level weapon was indeed formidable!

Even though the dragonman youngster was psychologically prepared, faced with this kind of situation, he was very disturbed by it.

Xiong Ju wasn’t happy, rather he was full of shock!

“Long Fu, this guy, why is his defense so formidable?!”

He had never experienced such an opponent.

So many times, his Gold Flower Hacksaw had slashed Long Fu.

Yet none of his attacks pierced a single dragon scale!

If it was a saint level or a legend level, Xiong Ju would have conceded it, but the crucial thing was that the dragonman youngster was just silver level.

Xiong Ju was beginning to have doubts that his own Gold Flower Hacksaw was a fake.

“What is his bloodline actually, to have such hard dragon scales?”

“I thought that Long Fu’s defense was exaggerated enough, I didn’t expect it to exceed the limits of my imagination.”

“Don’t tell me a gold level weapon can’t get through his dragon scales?” 

“It’s no boast that it is impossible to break through his defense.”

The audience was in an uproar.

Not only were the ordinary people shocked, but the eyes of many transcendents couldn’t help but widen with utter flabbergast.

They were being swindled by Deceptive Disguise and didn’t know the dragonman youngster was wearing the Gold Silk Chainmail.

And the Gold Silk Chainmail was currently being sliced apart wildly by the Gold Flower Hacksaw.
