[Subscribe Requested]_3 However, without any surprise, the creature counterattacked by thrusting its shrunken limbs once more, blocking Jia Yanâs attack.
Jia Yan retreated several steps.
He was slightly solemn, after all, this guyâs defense was extremely formidable.
When Jia Yanâs attacks landed, those retracted limbs would come out in defense, and their speed and strength seemed even more formidable than the rest of Electric Societyâs limbs.
âHowever, the strength Iâm using now is only at the level I used against that tentacled monster yesterday.
Aside from using some tactical moves, Iâm still reserving the strength I held back yesterday!
If I were to use my full speed, I might be able to defeat him in one strike.
ButâŠâ
There was a glint in Jia Yanâs Compound Eyes as he watched the Electric Society opponent.
This guy wasnât an insurmountable mountain for Jia Yan, but he didnât want to reveal any more of his strength.
If he kept unleashing his power, he would have fewer trump cards for the future.
Jia Yan always remembered, this was just a match, his real strength must be preserved for a life-and-death moment in the future.
Otherwise, the task he was attempting, which was already akin to a desperate gamble, would become utterly hopeless if all was laid bare.
âReserve strength!
Even if I lose, Iâll only use up to eighty percent!â
The strength Jia Yan was using was roughly seventy percent, and he slightly increased his strength to around seventy-five percent.
The speed of his attacks suddenly increased!
Donât underestimate the addition of half a percent, in battles among the strong, such a small margin could decide victory or defeat!
âHe still has hidden strength, this guy is really unfathomable!â The Electric Society panicked when it saw Jia Yanâs increased speed and attack power.
The host of the competition, being a Cosmic Level Being, though he didnât possess the fearsome power of the Mantis Referee, still had considerable insight into the Starry Sky Level Experts.
âOh!
Jia Yan has burst forth again.
This Angel Camp external helper, who dominated his opponents yesterday, does he even have a limit to his strength?
Facing a mighty adversary, one that is infinitely close to the Mid-Starry Sky Period, he has once again brought out even greater strength.
He really is unfathomable.
Could it be that weâre all unaware that this player is actually at the Mid-Starry Sky Period?â
The Mantis Referee, watching the battle unfold, was also astonished.
He had personally tried Jia Yanâs strength yesterday while helping the tentacled monster defend, and he knew Jia Yan had concealed some of his power.
But it seemed today, Jia Yan was hiding much more!
Moreover, regardless of how he looked at it, Jia Yanâs movements seemed smoother than yesterdayâs.
That was what surprised him the most.
The strength of a strong one comes from prolonged cultivation.
For this guy to suddenly move in a way that fits the combat so well, it was indeed hard to explain.
âDie die die die!â Electric Society seemed to have forgotten that this was a competitive arena combat; it furiously launched its attacks at Jia Yan, one after another.
It knew that compared to Mid-Starry Sky Period Super Powerhouses, it wasnât much, but self-proclaimed capable of defeating weaker Mid-term powerhouses, it was now being suppressed by an equal-level opponent, causing a fit of fury.
In the face of so many spectators and Strong Ones, this originally recognized Early Stage Super Powerhouse was now utterly humiliated.
Boom boom boom!!!ââââââ
A series of attacks exploded on the ground as Jia Yan kept tumbling, dodging in what seemed a clumsy manner.
But to some observant people, it seemed like the Electric Society was doomed despite Jia Yanâs apparent disadvantage.
Because its attacks were becoming erratic, Jia Yan was like a hungry wolf waiting for the prey to deplete its energyâjust waiting for its struggle to cease before pouncing and tearing it to shreds.
Sure enough, although Electric Society had a formidable fighting prowess, at the end of the day, it was a typical Early Star Space powerhouse.
After dozens of high-energy blasts with no results, its Combat Energy began to decrease.
âNowâs the time!â Jia Yan seized the opportunity and struck fiercely at his opponentâs head with his forelimb.
But instead of the massive forelimb of the Mantis that was expected, a âShadowâ as quick as lightning lashed out, blocking Jia Yanâs attacking limb with ferocity.
After a loud noise, Jia Yan stumbled backward.
âI will not be defeated by you so easily.â
Electric Societyâs expression turned fierce as it looked at Jia Yan, its eyes filled with a crazed will to fight.
Another limb that had been well hidden in its thorax emerged; previously it had been concealed within its body, perhaps even its trump card, but now it was unleashed to face off against Jia Yan!
âStill not giving up!â
Jia Yan, having missed his strike, began to feel a surge of anger.
With a sudden move, he hurled himself towards Electric Society for an attack.
With the addition of two hidden limbs for defense, Electric Societyâs defensive capability improved significantly.
Now, whether Jia Yan tried close or ranged attacks, he couldnât break through the opponentâs defense in a short span of time.
In a sudden moment, Jia Yan rushed close to Electric Societyâs body and then, drawing near, he stabbed towards it with his forelimb.
âThe same move again!â
Electric Society shouted, and then one of the hidden limbs fiercely thrust out.
Jia Yan had already used this kind of attack several times, and Electric Society had become familiar with Big Mosquitoâs close combat patterns.
No matter how Jia Yan changed his tactics, if it could defend against attacks below its chest with its two hidden limbs, it could counter Big Mosquitoâs offensive!
And this time, it was prepared for another tactic.
Having defended himself, it now prepared to counterattack Jia Yan with one of its forelimbs, even though it was aware of how slim the chances were of defeating Jia Yan.
But it had to try!
But this time, Jia Yanâs attack was different!
Clang!!
When Electric Society blocked Jia Yanâs attack, then its forelimb, readied for a counterattack, thrust towards Jia YanâŠ
Splat!!!!!ââââââ
A dark silhouette, like a lightning strike, pierced through.
