Free Web NovelChapter 994: Chapter 416: Breakthrough of the Super-Rank Skill! Su Ping’s Victory!
Dragon blood splattered, and that sword edge that had already been withdrawn—almost no one in the entire venue had seen it clearly.
But what they clearly saw was that Azure Dragon that had just spread its wings and taken flight, suddenly turning into a severed serpent, chopped cleanly into two rigid halves from the middle!
The surging Element of Wind and Thunder, after an instant of chaotic explosions, then vanished into nothingness! freēwēbnovel.com
The terrifying offensive from just now was turned to ash in the face of that single sword!
What the hell just happened?
Obviously, no one had figured it out.
Even Su Ping was slightly stunned.
Because he had never imagined that, at this very moment, Qian Yi would be able to one-shot kill this Azure Dragon with a single sword.
By his estimation, when Qian Yi’s Five Elements had circulated to this juncture, he would not only be able to block, but even suppress this Azure Dragon.
Then, by dragging it out a little longer, waiting for the Great Revolution Five Elements to run to the fourth cycle, or simply stepping directly into the Peak state of the fifth cycle, he could end this battle cleanly and neatly.
But instead, one sword?
An Azure Dragon that had condensed the Wings of Wind and Thunder—what did Qian Yi rely on to reach this step?
The reason actually wasn’t hard to figure out.
Because at the instant that sword was unleashed, the Five Elements radiance on Qian Yi’s body drew inward. Clearly, in just this brief span, Qian Yi’s Great Revolution Five Elements had already reached its peak.
He wasn’t merely making a move while it was still circulating.
Therefore, there was only one answer.
Su Ping’s Spirit Vision Eye instantly locked onto Qian Yi, and at this moment, two changes had appeared on Qian Yi’s body.
The first change was also within Su Ping’s expectations.
It was naturally that Qian Yi had gained another skill.
A Swordsmanship-type skill.
During this period, in the few times Qian Yi had made a move, he had always used that pure Sword of Gold. Qian Yi already had Swordsmanship in many elements, apart from rare attributes like Light, Darkness, Space, and Time.
Only Metal Element and Earth Element had no Swordsmanship.
Yet Metal Element was almost inseparable from the sword.
So when he unleashed this sword again, Qian Yi’s comprehension of Swordsmanship was also something within reason.
[Draw-sword Slash (Proficient): Called a blade, but in truth a sword. Edge hidden within the scabbard; once drawn, it startles the world. Possesses absolute power and speed to kill in a single strike.]
This thing was somewhat similar to that old One-Word Electric Sword, yet also a bit different.
But in any case, it was a good thing.
Meanwhile, under the observation of the Spirit Vision Eye, another change and breakthrough in Qian Yi’s skill panel was clearly extraordinary.
Within the fusion of Paper Body Control, among the five Papermen of the Five Elements Paper Body that Qian Yi controlled, that Super-Rank Skill ranked in the hall of fame—’Great Revolution Five Elements Physique’—had broken through from ’Beginner’ to ’Proficiency’. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
It was precisely because of this that the operating speed of Qian Yi’s Five Elements Body had reached a new tier.
At the same time, the burst of Energy unleashed directly had also risen to a new tier.
The Skill Proficiency Level of a Super-Rank Skill had leveled up?
Once he figured this out, Su Ping glanced at this little rascal Qian Yi; silently, it turned out this kid hadn’t been without progress these past few days at all!
However, at this moment, Su Ping finally understood.
Yet the scene that had just unfolded caused the entire arena, after a brief silence, to erupt with a roar like mountains and seas.
Even Lu Guangming—who had remained calm from start to finish and firmly believed that Su Ping was doomed to lose among those three—couldn’t help but cry out:
"What on earth happened? At the final moment, Su Ping pulled off a comeback! That Paperman actually made a move! And with just a single sword, it instant-killed Chen Zhan’s Azure Dragon! What’s going on?"
What’s going on?
Wang Shengtian beside him thought for a moment and said:
"Is Su Ping hiding his strength? In reality, the Great Revolution Five Elements Physique skill doesn’t even need Charging Power and can be pushed directly to the utmost peak? But that would be a bit too..."
"No!"
Zhang Lan directly cut him off and spoke decisively:
"That Paperman does indeed need Charging Power, but in that hair-trigger moment, its skill Proficiency Level should have broken through! That’s why it completed the charge at the very last second!
Moreover... based on my observation, when that Paperman blocked the Azure Dragon’s Wind and Thunder Claw before drawing its sword, the Charging Power was still continuing. So I have reason to suspect that, in fact, Su Ping’s Paperman is capable of making moves even during the charging phase.
From this, you can see that saying Su Ping is hiding his strength isn’t exactly wrong either!"
As the vice president of the Mechanics Association and the deputy Sang Sheng relied on most—Mad Saint’s most trusted right hand—Zhang Lan clearly had some real skills.
His powers of observation were extremely sharp.
In fact, that was indeed the case; in the rapidly replayed slow-motion cuts on the arena, Zhang Lan’s assessment was confirmed!
"It really is like this—another breakthrough in the midst of battle? Su Ping’s Pet Beast truly keeps bringing huge surprises! Or rather, this Beastmaster Su Ping himself is a legendary kind of surprise!"
...
"He actually broke through in battle?"
The white-browed elder furrowed his brows tightly; it seemed he hadn’t expected things to end up like this either?
Sang Sheng beside him spoke blandly:
"Even without the breakthrough, Chen Zhan absolutely had no chance of winning."
Leng Ye also curled his lip:
"Old Chen, so this was your trump card?"
The white-browed elder cast a glance at this pair who were trading lines, frowning slightly:
