The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

Chapter 163 The Sword Saint Unleashes His Power: I'll Take on Ten of Them!

"Without further ado, I'm sure everyone is eagerly anticipating today's match. Now, let's welcome the first contestant to the arena!"

In their first match, the Japanese team immediately brought out their strongest swordsman, Susanoo, intending to face off against the Chinese team's swordsman, Mo Qian.

However, Mo Qian, whom they had been eagerly anticipating, did not get up at all. Instead, Huang Shaotian stood up and prepared to go on stage.

"What?! It wasn't that person!"

"There was a tactical error, but it shouldn't be a big problem. This blond kid is obviously no match for Susanoo."

Because Huang Shaotian mostly cooperated with Mo Qian in the first half of the match, this directly led to Tianzhao's misjudgment. He thought that Huang Shaotian's strength was actually not that great.
The reason they were able to win the first half was entirely due to Sword Immortal Mo Qian carrying the team, and while that was indeed the case, what Amaterasu didn't expect was that...

Why was Huang Shaotian able to keep up with Mo Qian's reaction speed? He overlooked this point, which meant that Susanoo would also lower his guard against Huang Shaotian. They might be in for a good lesson from Huang Shaotian.

The audience, of course, knew perfectly well; who didn't know that there were two kings among swordsmen?

One is the Sword Immortal, known as Mo Qian, who rules the entire alliance.

The second is the Sword Saint, Huang Shao, whose name resounds throughout the League.

Opportunist Huang Shaotian requests to fight!
This time, the map is Breeze Island. The buff on this map is quite interesting: a speed boost. Players' movement speed and skill casting speed are both enhanced here.
To put it bluntly, this map is practically the swordsman's destined map, because that's the truth. Everyone knows about the swordsman's speed boost.

"Now, contestants, get ready! Three, two, one! The match begins!"

Everyone was eagerly watching the game; there was absolutely no time to go to the bathroom during this match—it would be such a waste!
Of course, the most important thing is that by the time you come back from the toilet, the match may already be over. Sometimes, a swordsman's duel is just a matter of a moment, and the opportunity is fleeting!
"Sword Shadow Step!"

"Sword Shadow Step!"

The two immediately unleashed their signature moves at the start of the match. Surprisingly, their "Sword Shadow Step" techniques seemed to be at the same level; both created dozens of afterimages as they charged towards each other simultaneously.
However, while the audience was focused on the location of the Sword Shadow Step, Ye Xiu and the other players were looking at the aerial view.
Ye Xiu and the others are all professional players at the atmospheric level. How could they not know what Huang Shaotian was thinking?

However, what Ye Xiu and Mo Qian saw was both players flying in the air—

"Haha, it seems your skills have been stolen, Old Mo!"

Ye Xiu looked at Lao Mo with amusement. In fact, Ye Xiu knew that the other party's so-called "Flying Immortal from Beyond the Heavens" was just a show, and it didn't even look as skillful as Huang Shaotian's "Flying Immortal from Beyond the Heavens."
As expected, Huang Shaotian seized the opportunity and unleashed a devastating "Silver Light Falling Blade," knocking his opponent down from mid-air.

"Hmph! What kind of skill is this, daring to imitate the sword immortal's 'Flying Immortal from Beyond the Heavens'? They really don't know their own limitations!"

It's important to know that Huang Shaotian spent a considerable amount of time fully understanding the "Flying Immortal from Beyond the Heavens" sword technique, which involves swords descending from the sky.
You're telling me you can learn the opponent's Susanoo technique just by looking at it once? How is that possible? Sure enough, once in the sky, Huang Shaotian discovered his opponent was riddled with openings—Mo Qian couldn't help but laugh at this familiar scene. Back in training camp, Huang Shaotian had done the same thing, always coming to learn this move.
The result seemed to be that each time, Mo Qian mercilessly struck them down from the sky, just like Susanoo was doing now, exactly the same.

"Upward slash! Triple slash! Phantom Sword! Hahahaha! Take this! Take this!! Why are you stopping? Are you scared?"

Although Susanoo couldn't understand Huang Shaotian's language, his intuition told him it wasn't anything good. In fact, Susanoo should be glad he didn't understand Chinese.
Otherwise, he would probably have been driven crazy by Huang Shaotian's trash talk. Even now, Susanoo's actions are somewhat affected by Huang Shaotian's verbal bubbles.
Although all microphones are available, players from different countries are generally afraid that the opposing players' trash-talking skills are too strong and could affect their own players, so very few people will turn on all microphones.
However, this doesn't actually stop Huang Shaotian from trash-talking at all, because he can just type and send speech bubbles—

These clusters of bubbles are somewhat hindering Susanoo's movements, as some parts are difficult to see.

"Now's the time! Overlord Uppercut!"

Don't let Huang Shaotian's honest appearance fool you; he's actually been secretly learning quite a few of Mo Qian's tricks.
This "Overlord Uppercut" was undeniably brilliant, skillfully exploiting the opponent's weakness and seizing the opportunity! Huang Shaotian had the first move.

Not to mention the map has a speed-up buff; if Huang Shaotian can't kill his opponent instantly, he might as well go home and farm.

"Triple Aerial Slash! Sword Decides the World! Blade Storm! A Single Slash Against the Wind!..."

Huang Shaotian's hand speed was now at its absolute limit. If he didn't push it to the limit now, what was he waiting for? He wasn't giving anyone a chance; even if Huang Shaotian used the Reconciliation Seal, it wouldn't be of any use.

"Simple and straightforward, the Phantom Sword!"

The final move, "Phantom Invisible Sword," completely depleted Susanoo's last sliver of health. It was a textbook example of a combo, one that Huang Shaotian himself created.

However, when perfecting it, he asked Mo Qian to help him experiment, which ultimately led to the creation of this fastest combo.

While it may not deal the highest damage, it's definitely the fastest. That's the main characteristic of this combo: speed equals power.

"I want to hit ten!"

Huang Shaotian said excitedly. This time, he was completely fired up. Now, Huang Shaotian felt that even if Mo Qian stood in front of him, he wouldn't be afraid to fight him.
How could Amaterasu not see Huang Shaotian's current peak condition? She definitely couldn't win a direct confrontation with Huang Shaotian right now, therefore...
"Referee, I request a timeout!"

"???"

You know what, this kid is actually quite shrewd. There are indeed pauses in the rules, meant to give players time to adjust, but the other side clearly wants to stop Huang Shaotian—
