The Englishman was carried off the stage on a stretcher, while Li Rui remained standing in the Arena. Given the current situation, fighting was no longer an option! A massive storm had destroyed everything around, making the scene somewhat ridiculous.
"Who can't fight? Isn't there still the Snowstorm Platform?"
Upon hearing this, the elder at the judging table furrowed his brows tightly. The Snowstorm Platform was far more formidable than the Arena. For one, anyone who stepped onto the Snowstorm Platform had to come down from above, and only one person could descend from it.
"Li Rui, are you sure you want to go up to the Snowstorm Platform?"
Li Rui nodded slightly. Having come this far, retreating would be quite awkward.
"Shadow Flow Master, what about you?"
"If Young Hero Li has no objections, why should I?"
The latter faced his most troublesome opponent. For some reason, even though the opponent concealed their appearance, there was an overwhelming presence emanating from them that left Li Rui breathless.
This feeling came from deep within.
Both of them ascended to the Snowstorm Platform. Soon, the crowd around had shifted; the final battle was always so severe that no one dared to breathe too loudly for fear of missing something they couldn't see.
"Young Hero Li, are you ready?"
As soon as the words were spoken, someone suddenly charged forward. Following that figure was another shadow. Seeing this, Li Rui immediately countered, but strangely enough, a bizarre scene unfolded.
At that moment, Li Rui felt as if he were not fighting just one person but two.
Although Shadow Flow Master only possessed a fifth-level strength, the power he unleashed combined with that of another figure was enough to overwhelm even someone at their peak.
Li Rui found himself increasingly on the defensive, retreating slightly faster than before. However, he never expected that his opponent would vanish and pinpoint his location. A shadow flickered around him, and in their hand was a curved blade knife. Every angle became a blind spot, and suddenly he found himself in a dilemma.
"Young Hero Li, I apologize!"
Just as those words fell, Li Rui couldn't help but mutter "not good." At that moment, he was struck from behind with a knife; a foot-long arc appeared on his back!
In just a few rounds, the situation had reached this point; it seemed that this opponent was truly difficult to deal with!
The Shadow Flow Master had the upper hand and was several levels faster than Li Rui, even creating two afterimages, making it extremely difficult for the latter to evade.
The sound of "ding ding ding" echoed throughout the snow-covered arena.
Although the dagger was short, it was very convenient to wield, while Li Rui's Water Fire Staff appeared quite clumsy. The staff's movements had already been countered, and the surrounding airflow was even absorbed by the strange dagger! Although the movements were subtle, each arc that struck Li Rui brought a pain that words could not express.
"Brother Rui! You can do it!" Ruo Xin shouted from below, nervously sweating as Abby and others held her back. The current situation depended on how Li Rui would respond; despite the opponent's fierce attacks, there were still ways to counter them!
After a moment of time passed, Li Rui had accumulated about twenty scars on his body. Although the arcs were small, each one landed in different places, severely limiting his current mobility. This was not all; it seemed that the opponent was about to unleash a powerful attack, as their movements slowed slightly.
Suddenly, a whistling sound emerged as the Shadow Flow Master vanished from the arena; no one could see where he was positioned.
However, the sound of slicing wind was deafening, and the Shadow Flow Master gradually realized he had made a mistake.
No matter how he danced in the air or concealed himself skillfully, there was an unsettling feeling—Li Rui's eyes were fixed on his position. Moreover, every attack he launched aimed directly at Li Rui's vital points, yet little did he know that Li Rui effortlessly dodged them.
"Damn it, let's see how this goes!" the Shadow Flow Master muttered as he charged downwards. In an instant, a strange figure appeared behind Li Rui.
The latter suddenly extended his left hand and pointed behind him with Wind Extreme Finger. Then, gripping his staff with his right hand, he executed One Section Staff Technique Defines Four Flat. Two figures abruptly vanished before him.
The arena fell silent once more, but this time Li Rui revealed a charming smile; he had already figured out his opponent's tactics.
At that moment, a sound resonated in his heart!
Li Rui frowned slightly; little did he know that a palm-sized dart flew in from all directions. The latter was now extremely frustrated—could this snow-covered arena also use hidden weapons? That would be awkward.
Gripping the staff with his left hand, he swung it around as the sound of "ding ding ding" rang out again across the arena.
What surprised Li Rui was that the number of darts increased rapidly—from initially four to suddenly around a hundred. The latter focused intently on the direction from which the darts were coming but felt frustrated about how to observe from all angles.
"Drink!" The Shadow Flow Master shouted loudly, and suddenly two curved blades appeared in his hands, aimed directly at Li Rui's neck. At that moment, the latter's speed was exceptionally fast, as if he would...
Li Rui was not someone to be underestimated. He suddenly surged upward, using the wind force generated by his Wind Extreme Foot to propel himself off the ground, making the most correct move at the most unstable moment.
Immediately, the tip of his staff was aimed at the position of the curved blades. At this moment, Li Rui intended to smash them into the ground; otherwise, things would get a bit messy.
However, what frustrated him was that the Shadow Flow Master never allowed his enemies to get close. It seemed like he would disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye. Not to mention, when hiding in the shadows, his prowess was truly beyond words, but in direct combat, his abilities seemed quite weak.
Just like before, Li Rui casually struck against the opponent's curved blade with his staff, and a strong shockwave seemed to rattle his hands.
Li Rui understood that the more urgent the situation became, the more passive he would be. Moreover, an assassination expert could not engage in a prolonged battle. The latter originally wanted to drag it out with him but did not expect this guy to become increasingly ruthless! A moment of carelessness could lead to being knocked down. Every time he tried to set a trap to draw him closer, he was instead...
"Coward? Is escaping all you can do? If you have guts, come and fight me head-on!" Li Rui taunted repeatedly while observing his opponent's movements. Although his weapon was somewhat clumsy, his keen eyesight compensated for it.
Suddenly! Two curved blades flew straight toward Li Rui. He was taken aback; did this guy even abandon his weapons? Was he about to unleash something massive...?
