Blood Assimilation

Chapter 59 - Determination



Li Weisheng then continued: "Luckily this one had known about this technique of yours before accepting the challenge and also, just now, this one had used his spiritual energy to block the pores on his skin thus blocking most of the shockwaves from pervading into this one's body."

While standing a few meters away Randy had a complicated expression as he looked at Li Weisheng in shock.

'Damn! Is this guy a monster or something? He already knew how to counter my fist technique just from observing it from the virtual stream… Now, what should I do? How can I win against him now that my fist technique's special effect seemed to be useless against him? Right now, I don't want to lose to this guy, because, on one hand, I might be able to obtain more knowledge points from defeating him and on the other hand, I just wanted to see how far I can go with my current skill and ability against an expert like him who had obviously trained his skills and techniques for way longer than I did with mine.' 

Randy quietly thought to himself with a pondering expression.

As he was busy thinking of a way to defeat his opponent, Li Weisheng opened his mouth once again and then said: "Now then, since you have already finished with your attack, now it is this one's turn…"

Saying so, within a blink of an eye, he had appeared in front of Randy and catching him off guard, causing him to gasp from the other party's sudden appearance.

At this moment, Li Weisheng wielded his sword with his right hand as he abruptly created a sword phantom that was infused with sword qi with his sword before slashing diagonally at Randy who was only about a meter away from him.

At this point, Randy felt the encroaching sense of danger that he felt from earlier becoming stronger and heavier. 

He could tell that if he does not do anything right now, he would be chopped into two and then lose his life afterward.

How could he let that happen at this point in time? He would at least give it all he got before then.

And so, not willing to let that happen, he immediately executed the Gale Riding skill with all he got and when the sword phantom was only a hair's breadth away from slashing diagonally on his chest…

Whoosh!

He vanished!

A moment later…

Wizz—

A cold gleam of blue light flashed!

The sound of the wind being cut by a sharp weapon resounded through the air.

Boom! 

A loud noise resounded in the distance.

However, it seems this sword phantom had missed its target when it passed through the wind just now.

The following moment, Randy appeared a few meters away from Li Weisheng and was breathing heavily as if he had just escaped a death sentence or something along those lines.

He realized something through this near-death experience.

That he had greatly underestimated this Sword Fool, Li Weisheng. 

He noticed that this Li Weisheng seemed to have comprehended and learned some profound movement techniques that enable him to close the distance between them by moving so fast without even making any audible sounds. 

This was a deathly movement technique that the other party had used just now, because he had no idea when the other party had executed it and before he could even realize anything, the other party was already in front of him while brandishing their sword.

If he did not have the Gale Riding skill, then he would have already lost to this attack of his opponent.

Thinking of this, Randy was more certain that he could not afford to slack off in using his abilities if he really wanted to win this duel.

From the beginning, he never planned on using any of his other abilities.

Essentially, his main purpose in participating in this virtual duel system was to train his newly learned profound technique and also to gain experience with both the technique and combat through dueling others from different professions. 

But now, things are very different from his original plans.

Now, he wanted to defeat this guy not just for accumulating knowledge points or gaining experience, but to see the full extent of his current self against a professional with top-notched skills.

And to do that, he wanted to try beating Li Weisheng in this duel.

With that thought in mind, Randy took a deep breath and then breathed out slowly to calm down his stressed-out nerves and after a moment, his temperament abruptly changed.

Now he was exuding an aura of calmness and determination.

Seeing this from the distance, Li Weisheng was slightly surprised by the sudden change in him. 

He noticed that the other party's temperament was now full of resolution. 

And with such expression, he could tell that the other party probably felt the need to use all of their power in this virtual combat and he too was willing to fight him with all he got if that was the case.

"It seems that you plan on fighting with everything on the line, then this one would also not hold back with his attacks from this moment onwards." Li Weisheng said with a smile.

'What the hell! Do you mean to tell me that his earlier attack was not his best attack? Tsk, it seems I really have to use my other abilities after all. But I have to make him stationary for a little bit… How do I do that… wait, there was something that I felt was possible, but I had always dismissed this thought due to how absurd it was. However, if my feelings were not wrong, then I might be able to pull it off and at the same time achieve victory without fighting this Li Weisheng head-on. I will lose if I were to fight him head-on as he seemed to have fought his share of battles so there was clearly no way I could defeat him head-on.'

After thinking of that, Randy looked straight at Li Weisheng and then solemnly said: "Alright, let us fight with all of our power and strength from this moment onwards." 

"Come at me.." Randy waved his hand as he beckons the other party to attack him first.
