With the class change to Shield Guardian and maxed-out defense, I can maintain infinite health.

Wang Yan stared intently at Chen Ming.

in fact.

Even if today's plan succeeds.

The Abyss Squad can actually beat the Dawn Squad by 'cheating'...

Wang Yan also decided to bring Chen Ming and Qin Zhixue in afterward.

First, Chen Ming's potential is truly terrifying.

Terrifying...

This made Wang Yan afraid to let Chen Ming be truly eliminated.

Secondly.

This might also make the inspector turn a blind eye.

After all, Chen Ming's previous performance.

The inspector must have already taken a liking to him.

Only by defeating Chen Ming through external forces can we get him to join the Abyss Squad.

In addition, thanks to his grandfather's connections, he was able to make an exception and the inspector would not pursue the matter.

Therefore, this competition is Wang Yan's purpose.

It's not about competing with Chen Ming for a spot in the next round.

Instead, they wanted to fight for their own future.

Unfortunately, it failed.

He didn't know how Song Chuan suddenly lost his mind, but he was sure it was related to Chen Ming.

Chen Ming ignored Wang Yan's words.

Trying to bribe him?

Let's set aside the question of whether he's willing or not.

Even if he were willing, could Wang Yan really give him what he wanted?

In terms of equipment, at least legendary-level equipment is needed to barely impress him now.

Not too many are needed.

Just give me a complete set of legendary equipment.

Can you afford it?

As for resources, he really doesn't lack them.

The resources stored in Chen Ming's mental space, if released, would make a lot of people envious.

Therefore, Chen Ming had no intention of communicating with Wang Yan.

Instead, they took direct action.

He took a step forward.

His figure burst out from the azure flames, and at the same time, he swung his sword without saying a word.

The slash, imbued with azure flames, struck the A-rank Gale Archer at the very front.

-110!

The archer was initially taken aback, but his expression didn't change much.

The damage from this attack.

He is perfectly capable of handling it.

It didn't have the terrifying attack power I had imagined.

"It seems that his attack damage, which wasn't stacked, isn't very high."

The archer's heart skipped a beat.

So, all we need to do is put up a fight with Chen Ming.

He didn't believe Chen Ming could maintain such terrifying defensive capabilities.

It requires no cost.

It must be maintaining some special state to have such a complete immunity to damage.

and so.

If we can stall for time, there might still be a chance.

Not far away.

Wang Yan also saw the damage caused by Chen Ming's first strike.

His mind raced, and he quickly came up with the same idea as the archer.

"Keep your distance, don't let his attacks stack up!"

Hope rekindled on Wang Yan's face.

however.

Just as the archer had taken a hit from Chen Ming and was preparing to quickly create distance,

next moment.

His expression suddenly changed.

[100% Armor Penetration!]

"Holy crap?!"

The Swift Archer stumbled.

I almost lost my balance and fell to the ground.

His eyes widened, his expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"What happened? I..."

In the blink of an eye.

His armor was completely breached?!

However, the archer soon discovered that his defenses were still intact.

It wasn't completely penetrated in a true physical sense.

only......

When he faced Chen Ming, a feeling of unease, like a prickling thorn in his back, surged into his heart like a ghost.

All defenses melted away like cream.

It was instantly dismantled!

It's just like......

It was as if it had been 'locked' by some kind of power of Chen Ming.

All his defenses were practically useless!

Does Chen Ming also possess special armor-piercing abilities?

Is this even a human?!

Is it really necessary to be this terrifying?

At this moment, the archer was absolutely certain that he had been 'exclusively breached' by Chen Ming's ability.

as predicted.

The next second, he witnessed the power of Chen Ming's exclusive defense-breaking technique.

Although the Swift Archer is very fast.

Speed ​​remains Chen Ming's weakness.

However, level advantage combined with equipment advantage!

His speed was still higher than his opponent's.

In just a few seconds, Chen Ming had caught up with the archer.

The second strike landed—

-480!

It was the same slash as before.

The damage, however, increased fourfold!

Armor penetration is 100%, and the damage reduction from defense is completely eliminated.

In addition, it stacks attack damage by 200%.

"Holy shit..."

The archer's heart skipped a beat; the damage amplification speed was like a ghost.

Whoosh whoosh—

The Swift Archer quickly created distance again, hastily unleashing his skill.

A series of arrows of wind energy converged and attacked Chen Ming.

They tried to stop him.

Ding ding ding...

The arrow struck Chen Ming, sending sparks flying.

They didn't even remove a single hair.

[-0!] [-0!] [-0!]

The archer's lips twitched.

Still 0 damage.

What's the point of even bothering with this?!

This guy is invincible.

We might as well just give up.

You can't outmaneuver them, and you can't beat them in a fight either.

at the same time.

Chen Ming has caught up with the archer once again.

With a clang.

The long sword was swung out—

-720!

boom!

The impact of this attack was already quite terrifying.

Amidst the howling flames, faint explosions could be heard.

Only three attacks.

Chen Ming had already begun preparing to enter crushing mode.

"I......"

The Swift Archer was sent flying backward, tumbling several times.

This attack had already caused him considerable injury.

He forced himself to lift his head.

Beware of Chen Ming's next attack.

However, Chen Ming did not chase after them.

He feared that if he made the next cut, the man might not be able to withstand it.

then.

Chen Ming looked at Wang Yan.

Wang Yan trembled.

It feels like I'm being watched by the King of Hell.

He swallowed hard, and cold sweat began to bead on his forehead.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Yan finally launched an attack.

Under normal circumstances, he would have begged for mercy.

But now, it's happening in public.

The entire city of Yunhai is watching.

He didn't want to become a laughingstock like Song Chuan.

At worst...

After being stabbed several times by Chen Ming, he pretended to be seriously injured and collapsed to the ground.

It was a decent way to exit the stage.

Wang Yan retreated while swinging the wooden staff in his hand.

call--

Dark elemental energy surged forth, coalescing into a giant hand.

It slammed forward.

Chen Ming remained calm and composed, passing directly through the dark hand.

-0!

As the dark elemental aura dissipated, he had already arrived in front of Wang Yan.

A swift and effortless slash.

-400!

"Hmm? The damage has decreased!"

Wang Yan's eyes lit up.

He was unaware that the archer's armor had been breached after taking Chen Ming's first hit.

It was clear that Chen Ming's final strike on the archer dealt 720 damage!

Now it's 400.

It's decreased?!

Although his defense is higher than that of an archer, it certainly isn't much higher.

Therefore, the only explanation is that Chen Ming's attack damage has decreased!

Could it be that...

Is there any way to control him?

But the next moment.

[100% Armor Penetration!]

"Holy crap?!"
