Infinite Bloodcore-Chapter 548: Section 335: Let’s have a fierce battle!

Talks fell short very soon.

The Dragon-man youth exchanged a few words with Teng Donglang and then leapt backward.

As he retreated, he reached out, pulling out two crossbows and aiming them at Teng Donglang to shoot.

This duel differed from the last one; this time, the Dragon-man youth chose to initiate the battle from a distance.

In the fight against Xiong Ju, the Dragon-man youth could rely on brute force, but when facing Teng Donglang, where the enemy was stronger, he opted for a conservative and prudent tactic, planning to first adapt to the fighting rhythm of confronting a Golden Level opponent and then consider implementing different tactics based on the specific situation.

The crossbows were already loaded with Alchemy Arrows.

The arrows flew, tracing through the air with sparks, frost, lightning, and other elemental effects.

Teng Donglang snorted coldly, chopping with one hand.

Immediately, a golden Fighting Energy, like a massive blade aura, fiercely cleaved forward.

Wherever the Fighting Energy blade reached, the arrows were either smashed or redirected, posing no threat to Teng Donglang.

Teng Donglang snorted coldly again, his voice not loud but resonating throughout the arena, "Long Fu squad leader, such minor attacks are not even fit to tickle me."

"Such meaningless probes yield no results."

"Come, face me directly. I’m right here."

Teng Donglang’s words were full of provocation.

The Dragon-man youth slightly raised his eyebrows and continued to furiously shoot with the Alchemy Crossbow.

No effect.

Most of the various Alchemy Arrows were preemptively destroyed by Teng Donglang, and even the ones that reached him were blocked by a Golden Fighting Spirit shield conjured out of thin air.

At the Golden Level, since Fighting Spirit can be conjured out of thin air, fighters’ methods in battle become highly varied.

Teng Donglang hadn’t used any Combat Skill; he relied solely on his Fighting Spirit to stand his ground easily, effortlessly defending against the barrage of arrows from the Dragon-man youth.

In the spectators’ family and friends section.

Lan Zao revealed a trace of joy, "With Alchemy Arrows, the squad leader can deplete much of Teng Donglang’s Fighting Energy. This situation is advantageous for us."

Menshi, however, furrowed his brows, "Don’t forget, the Saber Gang has the Qi Needle Syringe."

The Dwarf had a profound impression of this equipment.

It was because of this equipment that he was defeated by Ban Langen.

"Though I haven’t seen the Qi Needle Syringe, Teng Donglang must surely be carrying it. That’s precisely why he’s being so lavish with his Golden Fighting Spirit."

"No, precisely speaking, it can’t yet be called lavish," Sanda countered with a different view, "The quality of Golden-level Fighting Spirit far exceeds those Silver-level Alchemy Arrows from the squad leader. Thus, Teng Donglang only needs to use a small amount of Golden Fighting Spirit to deal with the Squad Leader’s attacks. Our actual depletion of his Fighting Spirit is much less than we might think."

Sanda understood this point, and naturally, the Dragon-man youth was very clear about it too.

"If I can’t pose a threat to Teng Donglang, there’s no way to deplete his combat strength!"

After the Dragon-man youth once again exhausted the arrows from his crossbows, he tossed them high into the air, then pulled from his back the Golden Longbow.

He bent the bow and nocked an arrow, infusing it with Fighting Spirit, and within a second, fired a shot.

The arrow, incredibly powerful, whistled through the air.

It struck right in front of Teng Donglang, violently slamming against the shield of Golden Fighting Spirit and exploding intensely.

The arrow completely disintegrated.

The Golden Fighting Spirit shield, floating in mid-air, appeared severely damaged, but quickly returned to its original form as fresh Fighting Spirit filled it.

This single arrow invigorated the spectators.

"The power of a Golden-level weapon is truly impressive."

"If he fired Burst Arrows, Teng Donglang’s shield would completely shatter, leaving no time for repairs."

But the next moment, the Dragon-man youth once again put away the Golden Longbow. Just then, the crossbows he had thrown into the air fell back down, and he smoothly caught them in his hands.

These two crossbows had an auto-loading feature.

They automatically absorbed the Alchemy Arrows from the arrow bag behind the Dragon-man youth. The arrows were automatically installed in the slots, saving the Dragon-man youth a significant amount of loading time.

When the Dragon-man youth caught the crossbows, these two weapons had already been completely reloaded.

He continued to vigorously shoot at Teng Donglang with the crossbows.

Lightning, flames, and toxic fog exploded.

Around Teng Donglang, various arrows created a spectacular barrage.

But after the smoke cleared, Teng Donglang still stood unscathed in his original spot.

However, the Dragon-man youth did not waver. After each burst of shooting with the crossbows, he would draw the Golden Longbow and shoot an arrow that posed a threat to Teng Donglang.

The spectators discussed this.

"The firepower of Long Fu alone is so fierce. The Alchemy Crossbows he uses are really practical."

"If the Dragon Lion Mercenary Group offered them for sale, I’d like to buy one too."

"Long Fu squad leader is very determined in executing his original tactics, but in my opinion, they aren’t significantly wearing down Teng Donglang."

"That’s right. Although Long fu has used a Golden-level longbow, he seems to lack matching Golden-level long arrows. Plus, he is not a qualified archer; no Combat Skills typical of archers have been seen."

"If it were me, I would do the same. Long Fu challenging Teng Donglang is already a battle of the weak against the strong. Only by not missing any opportunity to exhaust the opponent, fully grasping and utilizing every chance, can Long Fu stand more possibilities."

"Teng Donglang still stands unmoved at his original spot... I understand that he wants to fully display his strength and contempt for a weaker enemy, but isn’t he overconfident? His opponent is not just any Silver-level."

As the crowd discussed, the battle suddenly took a turn.

The Dragon-man youth completely threw away the crossbows and the Golden Longbow, charging towards Teng Donglang like an arrow released from its bow.

This scene left almost everyone astonished.

Even the members of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps were no exception.

"What’s going on?"

"Squad leader brought a lot of Alchemy Arrows, with all that effort, he hasn’t even used up 30% yet."

Very strange.

Just as many people were praising the Dragon-man youth for resolutely executing a correct tactic, the latter suddenly abandoned his perseverance and "recklessly" charged towards Teng Donglang.

However, just as the Dragon-man youth rushed forward and closed the distance to fifty meters from his opponent, a Mutation suddenly occurred.

A translucent Ice Vine suddenly burst forth from the ground.

The Dragon-man youth executed the Combat Skill Rampage, a small explosion erupted beside him at Ring Mound, propelling him to the side and skillfully dodging the ambush of the Ice Vine.

But immediately after, several Ice Vines emerged from the ground, some lashed out, others swept across and some even attempted to entangle the Dragon-man youth.

The Ring Mound on the Dragon-man youth exploded, driving him to continuously shift positions.

He successfully dodged all the Ice Vine attacks but was forced back, failing to reach Teng Donglang.

The Dragon-man youth’s expression darkened as he saw Teng Donglang surrounded and protected by the Ice Vines; he realized he had been tricked!

Teng Donglang, with his hands behind his back and maintaining a calm demeanor, looked at the Dragon-man youth with interest, "You’re quite sharp to discern my tactics, proving that you’re using your brain in battle."

"That’s right, when I use the Combat Skill ’Base,’ I cannot move."

"My most vulnerable moment is right after I use this Combat Skill."

"Unfortunately, by now, my ’Base’ has already spread to a 50-meter radius around me."

"Can you stop me?"

"If you can’t destroy my Combat Skill, my advantage will grow bigger and bigger until the ’Base’ covers the entire dueling field."

"No, to be precise, once my ’Base’ expands to a radius of 300 meters, you will have no chance of winning."

As the Dragon-man youth adopted the strategy of long-range attrition, Teng Donglang opportunistically released the Combat Skill "Base."

He spoke upper-handedly, masking his true tactics.

The Dragon-man youth was executing his attrition tactic while Teng Donglang was secretly advancing his!

Clearly, the Dragon-man youth’s tactics were not very effective, while Teng Donglang was establishing his advantage.

With time, his advantage would grow stronger until he reaped the fruits of victory!

The spectators were in an uproar.

"That cunning, despicable man!" Bu Quan gritted his teeth, eyes filled with hatred.

"Another rooting tactic, so shameless." Menshi was also infuriated, clenching his fists tightly.

Not long ago, his opponent Ban Langen had used this tactic. He established an advantage from the start, maintained and expanded it until he won.

Menshi’s experience in battle was terrible.

Despite his all-out efforts, he saw no hope!

Now, Teng Donglang was also using this tactic.

And compared to Ban Langen, Teng Donglang implemented the tactic more covertly and swiftly.

"Indeed, great minds think alike!" Ban Langen, seeing Teng Donglang choose the same tactic, laughed heartily, smugly.

Xiong Ju then glared at Ban Langen, "Stop laughing, it’s annoying! This battle has just begun, and this man from Long Fu won’t easily give up."

The Spring Boxer said, "Squad leader Long Fu is indeed more formidable than me, I couldn’t even detect any signs. How did he notice?"

How did the Dragon-man youth realize something was amiss?

The biggest contributor was still the City Lord of Snowbird Port.

The first segment of Magic Image he provided captured Teng Donglang stationary, using Ice Vine to combat the icefield wolves.

This gave him a significant clue.

"Fortunately, I discovered it in time!"

"A radius of 50 meters is already hard to breach. If this radius expands further, I’ll stand no chance."

"But I must stay calm!"

"Teng Donglang’s words seem honest, but in reality, he’s pressuring me, trying to make me panic."

This was the first time the Dragon-man youth fully engaged with a Golden Level opponent.

During the chaos at Twin Eyes Island, though he had faced opponents of this level, the Dragon-man youth had only sampled the fight lightly.

This time, he could fight to his heart’s content!

Blood Core Mutation—Transform into Smoke Dragon.

Golden Level set Vajra Protection—Vajra Body!

Dragon’s Counterattack initiated.

Chilling Heart Ice Pack, Ice Heart Circlet, Big Arena Badge were already active.

Combat Skill—Rampage!

Bang.

A loud explosion, and the Dragon-man youth suddenly disappeared from his spot.

He transformed into a crimson Bomb, fully blasting towards Teng Donglang.
