Lin Jiayi swung her Magic Wand at an astounding speed, successively casting several layers of buffs on Chen Mo from the aristocratic family. These reinforcements included Nature’s Guard, which boosted his abnormal resistance; Nature’s Healing, which enhanced his health regeneration per second; and The Strength of Nature, which amplified his overall battle prowess. With the addition of these triple buffs, Chen Mo, whose combat strength was already quite formidable, seemed even more overpowering.
He hefted his giant hammer in one hand as if it were a mere cotton ball, then swiftly advanced to the front of the two opponents across from him in a single stride! With a dull swoosh as his great hammer cut through the air, it suddenly expanded tenfold. The massive hammer, like a huge boulder, came crashing down directly on Shen Lun and Ma Hong!
As Chen Mo launched his attack, Shen Lun and Ma Hong weren’t about to sit idle. From the moment the fight began, they had already pulled out all the stops!
Shen Lun held a mysterious demon sphere emitting strange beams of colored light, and soon, layers of illusions enveloped Chen Mo.
Thanks to Chen Mo’s ability to sense everything around him, much like a seer, he could perceive all their details.
Even though Chen Mo was protected by Nature’s Guard, which reduced abnormal effects, the Curse-Disturbing Master used just three Skills to inflict him with at least ten different debuffs. Some were negligible, but others were critical: slowed movement, defense reduction, healing barrier, and continuous blood loss!
This four-star class might not look impressive in terms of combat power, but its ability to ’throw dirty water’ is truly potent!
The term ’throwing dirty water’ generally referred to inflicting a large number of negative effects at once. In this regard, the Curse-Disturbing Master excelled.
As Shen Lun applied numerous debuffs, Ma Hong, the Defender standing before him, suddenly had a light burst from his shield. It expanded rapidly, swelling to the size of Chen Mo’s massive hammer!
It all happened in the blink of an eye!
The sequence of events, from Chen Mo launching his attack to the other two reacting, took only a few short seconds.
As the deafening sound echoed, the hammer crashed onto the giant shield, causing a visible ripple of Energy to spread out. The shield cracked and, in the next instant, disintegrated into fine dust.
Looking at the state of the three combatants, Chen Mo, for some unknown reason, had lost half his Health. Ma Hong, on the other hand, had only lost a little Health, and Shen Lun was completely unscathed.
However, they hadn’t gained any significant advantage, because Ma Hong’s shield had been completely shattered by Chen Mo’s hammer!
This scene clearly caught the members of the Academy Alliance off-guard.
The surrounding crowd immediately erupted, "He can actually smash equipment directly! Five-star cultivators are truly monstrous! Even though we speculated about his various possible abilities, we never anticipated such a disgusting ability!"
"It’s no use. It seems we’ve lost this round," Jiang Jie said, shaking his head helplessly.
The opponent shattered equipment with a single blow. What’s the point of fighting on? If this continues, won’t all their gear be destroyed?!
Although Chen Mo had been affected by Ma Hong’s Damage Reflection Skill, losing half his Health from his own attack, he still wore an invincible expression as he laughed and taunted, "Got any more shields? Bring them on!"
At these words, Ma Hong’s mouth twitched. I really want to rush up and pummel this fatty!
Damn it! My hard-earned golden-grade shield was shattered by this damn fatty with one hit! That shield cost a fortune! This is a devastating loss!
Ma Hong’s heart ached at the thought.
But right now, I’m representing the Academy Alliance. I can’t just back down. He was in a real dilemma. He had one more backup shield, but he couldn’t afford to lose it. If that one shatters too, I’ll really flip out!
Shen Lun, standing nearby, was equally terrified and quickly stashed away his precious demon sphere. What if Chen Mo smashes my beloved weapon with one hit too?!
Chen Mo wasn’t dominating the field due to terrifying damage output. Rather, it was his equipment-shattering Skill that made both opponents wary and unwilling to engage directly, fearing their precious items would be next.
Seeing this, Chen Mo laughed and said, "It seems you can’t carry on fighting."
Chen Mo had barely finished his sentence when Jiang Jie, who was watching the fight from outside the combat area, stepped forward and said, "We surrender this round!"
"Surrendering so soon? I haven’t even really started yet!" Chen Mo pouted, looking somewhat unsatisfied.
Seeing that smug look on Chen Mo’s face, Jiang Jie’s fists clenched.
If I’d known this would happen, I would have fought this round myself!
I originally thought the opponent was a powerhouse dealing both physical and Spell damage. That’s why I sent Ma Hong, the Defender, who can withstand both types of attacks. With a Curse-Disturbing Master as Support, winning should have been straightforward.
But who would have thought he’d just start breaking equipment!
So unsportsmanlike! Utterly devoid of martial virtue!
"First round, victory to Chen Mo of the aristocratic family group, the ’Holy Martial Demon Knight’!"
Chen Mo swaggered back to his team, glanced at Zhao Wuming beside him, and said, "Too easy. You’re up next. Don’t embarrass us."
Zhao Wuming glanced at Jiang Jie on the opposing team and retorted, "You think my opponent will be as easy as yours was?"
Despite his words, Zhao Wuming still strode forward with indomitable spirit.
His class was the "Bloodthirsty Blade Fighter"!
The class was a perfect match for his inherently wild aura.
On the other side, Jiang Jie and a seemingly timid girl stepped forward.
"Prepare for the second match! From the aristocratic family group, the second contestant, Zhao Wuming, a five-star ’Bloodthirsty Blade Fighter’!"
