"Rhythmic Shadow Fist!"
The Young Master activated the rhythm warrior's professional skill, and his body began to move with a strange rhythm. Those who were watching the battle felt a weird sensation.
The scythe, shrouded in darkness, came slicing through the air, relying on its inertia to continue its path toward the target even after detaching from its owner. The Young Master moved in sync with the scythe, neither fast nor slow, as if he and the scythe were one entity.
Few people knew the name of the Rhythmic Shadow Fist, but this professional skill left a deep impression. A massive shadow of a fist appeared and struck Xia Bai, who was enshrouded in the ‘Burning Blood Purifying Demon’ skill, the white fist shadow was as large as a dining table, crashing down with a thunderous sound. Following the Young Master's movements, a second and third punch followed suit, each punch struck with precise timing, the sounds were incredibly rhythmic, as if everything had fallen into a certain rhythm.
Xia Bai was even more agile than before, aided by the partially dissipated dark cataclysm and bloodline, her figure moved with incredible speed, even faster than the shadow of the scythe's slash. As the scythe missed its target, Xia Bai had already dodged four punches from the Young Master!
Since Xia Bai was standing in front of the Shield of the Water Bottle, the punches she dodged slammed into the shield, causing it to dim slightly with each hit. It was at this moment that the core members of Cloud Summit truly realized the terror of this Young Master.
Although the competition of death roulette space continuously absorbed or negated the energy of the Shield of the Water Bottle, the fact that this top-tier protection, generated by a High-Level Water System Gemstone, could be shaken was something even the fire spirit bloodline that Cheng Tianji had displayed earlier could not achieve. After all, he was still a six-star evolver, whereas the current Young Master was only at the five-star level!
Suddenly, the people of Cloud Summit felt the immense pressure Xia Bai was under, and they were also incredulous at the strength the Young Master had displayed this time.
However, recalling what the Young Master had said earlier about the two heavily injured sacred seats concentrating their resources on one person, it was not surprising to see such progress.
After throwing a few punches, the Young Master ceased his attack, rotated his body, and lifted his leg to kick at Xia Bai, who was trying to take the opportunity to attack him. The fist shadow was replaced by a leg shadow, a virtual image several meters long accompanied by a fierce gust of wind made Xia Bai once again forced to evade.
Warriors utilize not only their fists; every part of their body serves as a weapon.
Seeing that Xia Bai was at a complete disadvantage, the people of Cloud Summit grew restless, with Park Soo-young even standing at the edge of the Shield of the Water Bottle, raising her hand to provide Xia Bai with the void crystal shield.
At that very moment, Xia Bai made a surprising move.
Instead of continuing to dodge, she slightly lowered her body and swung her fist.
"Ah, Xia Bai!"
Sister Rong gasped from the side, genuinely concerned for her sister, whom she had known since peacetime. Xia Bai had transformed into her current state to protect Sister Rong and the other sisters.
The fist collided with the Young Master's leg, neither intending to dodge, resulting in a solid impact.
Crack!
The crisp sound of bones breaking made many people's hearts tremble. Xia Bai's fist had deformed two of her fingers, clearly indicating that her finger bones had snapped.
The Young Master slid back a short distance. Anyone could see that he was merely using the momentum to adjust his body and obtain a better angle for the next attack.
The fist shadow returned, prompting Xia Bai to dodge once again.
"Aside from your evolution level, you haven't made any progress. I'm a bit disappointed."
The Young Master continued to attack vigorously, his tone teasing Xia Bai.
