A black armor appeared on Uesugi Naoâs body. When the sword beam struck the armor, it failed to injure it. Instead, the sword beam completely shattered.
Great Skyfiend? Donât tell me my luck is that good. I just randomly encountered someone, and sheâs actually the contractor of Great Skyfiend?
Zhou Wen immediately recognized the armor on Uesugi Naoâs body. It was identical to Great Skyfiend on the cubeâs rankings.
Uesugi Nao was forced to use Great Skyfiend, so she no longer hid it. She leaped up from the sand. With the augmentation of the Great Skyfiend armor, Uesugi Nao had the speed of a Mythical creature. She was much faster than before.
The Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi slashed at Zhou Wen like a phantom. It was so fast that almost no one could see the trajectory of the blade. With a flash of light, the blade was about to hit Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wenâs movement technique was elegant like a flying immortal. It didnât seem fast, but he dodged the blade by a hairâs breadth. The Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi brushed past his ear.
Gale Slash... Multi-Slash... Samsara Slash... Boomerang Wind Slash...
Uesugi Nao used her blade techniques again with the augmentation of the Great Skyfiend armor.
However, this time, due to her Mythical Speed and Strength, her blade techniques seemed to have activated an acceleration switch. They were unbelievably fast.
Wherever the blade beam passed, terrifying ditches appeared on the surrounding reefs. The humans on the island had long fled in horror. Even the sea turtles on the island scrambled to escape into the sea.
âThatâs Great Skyfiend! Great Skyfiend whoâs ranked first!â
âHoly sh*t, itâs really Great Skyfiend. I think I saw an extremely beautiful girl before she transformed into Great Skyfiend. That girl should be Uesugi Nao, right?â
âI never expected the owner of Great Skyfiend to be such a beautiful girl. Sheâs just a little too ruthless. That blade technique is really lethal!â
âWhoâs the young man fighting Great Skyfiend? How impressive. He actually managed to dodge Great Skyfiendâs attack with just his movement technique.â
âI think he has no choice but to dodge. He has no chance of retaliating.â
âI donât think so. Look at that young man. Heâs still holding a little girl in his arms. Look at how calm that little girl is. If that young man is really dodging in a sorry state, he would definitely scare the little girl in his arms. The little girlâs calmness can only mean one thing. The young man is completely composed.â
âSpeaking of which, who is that young man? Heâs so young. Iâm afraid heâs not even twenty, right? To be able to fight Great Skyfiend without using a Companion Beast is a little terrifying.â
Zhou Wenâs name and looks were well known among the six families and some wealthy families, but there werenât many ordinary citizens who knew him.
If someone from the six families or the bureau were here, they wouldnât be surprised to see this scene.
Zhou Wen used the Godfiend Life Providence and Glimmer Life Soul to complement Transcendent Flying Immortal, pushing his movement technique to its limits.
Although Uesugi Nao had the augmentation of Great Skyfiend and her Speed and Strength had reached the Mythical stage, she still failed to touch Zhou Wen.
Impossible... I have Great Skyfiend augmenting me. My speed is already at the Mythical stage. Heâs only at the Epic stage. Thereâs such a huge difference in basic Speed. How can he dodge my attacks time and time again?
Uesugi Nao found it unbelievable.
She had always felt that unless it was a human who had contracted a Guardian, no one could resist her after she obtained Great Skyfiend.
However, Zhou Wenâs appearance shattered the pride in her heart. Ignoring everything else, Zhou Wenâs movement technique was actually able to match her Mythical speed. She found it unacceptable.
Uesugi Nao couldnât accept such an outcome. She constantly stimulated Great Skyfiendâs strength, allowing her movement techniques and blade techniques to become faster and faster. She had to defeat Zhou Wen no matter what.
However, her blade still couldnât touch Zhou Wen. She could clearly sense that Zhou Wen wasnât as fast as her, but her blade was always dodged by him.
As Zhou Wen dodged Uesugi Naoâs attack, he observed Great Skyfiendâs abilities.
His movement technique was indeed not as fast as Uesugi Naoâs, but at least Uesugi Nao wasnât so fast that he couldnât react.
Zhou Wen was best at movement techniques. Transcendent Flying Immortal had been trained by him from when it was a low-level skill. Be it technique or compatibility with Zhou Wen, they were incomparable to other skills.
Amidst the terrifying blade shadows, Zhou Wen tapped his toes and floated in the air like a fallen leaf dancing in the wind. No matter how fast Uesugi Naoâs blade techniques were, they couldnât touch him.
Speed should be at the top of the Mythical stage, so is Strength. Although I donât know what Great Skyfiendâs skills are, just from his augmentation of Uesugi Naoâs stats, heâs undoubtedly an extremely powerful Guardian.
Zhou Wen deduced Great Skyfiendâs abilities to gain more information.
However, Zhou Wen also knew that Uesugi Nao had only used Great Skyfiendâs stats and hadnât used his abilities. The strength of a Guardian depended on their abilities.
Zhou Wen kept waiting to see what abilities Great Skyfiend had. What were his Life Providence, Life Soul, Wheel of Destiny, and skills?
However, Uesugi Nao never used Great Skyfiendâs abilities. She only wanted to use her blade techniques to defeat Zhou Wen.
From the looks of it, I have to give her some pressure so that she can use Great Skyfiendâs powers.
With a thought, Zhou Wen watched as Uesugi Nao slashed out again. This time, he didnât dodge.
A roar alarmed the world as Tyrant Behemoth descended out of nowhere and transformed into a boxing glove that appeared in Zhou Wenâs hand. Zhou Wen brandished his fist to meet Uesugi Naoâs Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.
Tyrant Behemoth!
Uesugi Naoâs pupils constricted. She never expected Zhou Wen to be Tyrant Behemothâs owner.
In the last cube ranking battle, Orochi had been defeated by Tyrant Behemoth and nearly devoured by it.
It wasnât just Uesugi Nao. Everyone watching the battle on the beach also saw the terrifying light and roar before Tyrant Behemoth condensed into a boxing glove.
However, before they could react, Zhou Wenâs fist had already struck Uesugi Naoâs blade.
Boom!
With Tyrant Behemothâs Absolute Strength augmentation, the power of Zhou Wenâs punch was extremely terrifying at the Mythical stage.
The extremely sharp Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi slammed into Tyrant Behemothâs boxing glove. Not only did it fail to slice open the boxing glove, but it was also sent flying by the shockwave. Uesugi Nao also retreated a few steps from the terrifying force. The reef beneath her feet shattered as shocking cracks appeared.
âHoly sh*t, so itâs Tyrant Behemothâs owner. Itâs no wonder heâs so strong.â
âSo Tyrant Behemothâs owner is from our East District. Heâs so young!â
âHaha, I knew it. Great Skyfiend isnât anything impressive. Itâs just that the previous top four didnât participate in the battle. Otherwise, how could she have arrogantly taken first place? The people overseas are this and nothing more.â
