Chapter 915: Chapter 915
"Good lad, come at me again!"
The Electric Society was slightly shocked by Jia Yan’s strength and immediately started to treat him with great seriousness.
His attack now contained a trace of Suddenly Enlightened Battle Techniques!
"These battle techniques are mentioned in the book I read yesterday!" It can be said that understanding one path opens up all paths. Jia Yan immediately noticed a hint of the underlying principle when he saw the combat techniques employed by his opponent.
Now that he thought about it, many of the contestants he had seen in this arena had used various combat skills, which for Jia Yan were a learning experience to savor and learn from.
"Before, I didn’t even have basic combat skills; I just relied on instinct and past experience to fight, and to have defeated so many of the Star Space Level was already formidable!"
Jia Yan’s Compound Eyes shone with a sharp light, the combat experience quickly turning into practical effects in the depths of his heart!
The Electric Society’s claw struck from a strange angle with ferocious force, and deep down, Jia Yan felt a touch of horror. His opponent’s tactical caliber wasn’t much less than his own!
In the past, to avoid such deviously angled moves, Jia Yan needed to rely on instinct, rapidly converting it in his brain to find a way to dodge.
But this time, Jia Yan merely felt a twinge of dread, after which he tried hard to recall a way to counter it from the Chapters he had read the day before!
Jia Yan felt his body swiftly darting fiercely to one side.
This move was as smooth as flowing clouds and water; Jia Yan had never imagined that evading an attack from a closely matched opponent could be so simple!
Now, Jia Yan found even more confidence and interest in those combat articles.
"I’m not familiar with it yet. If I were, my combat ability..."
Thinking this, Jia Yan truly regretted not having come into contact with the combat manuals of this Starfield earlier.
What he didn’t know was that while these books were not particularly valuable items, it was extremely difficult for the average Strong One to collect truly valuable ones. And the Scaled creature had watched Jia Yan fight and felt his shortcomings in certain areas, carefully selecting these to give to him, which was decidedly efficient.
"How is it possible that your strength seems to have increased since yesterday?!" The Electric Society was looking at Jia Yan with some surprise.
As a Starry Sky level expert, he could easily see the difference in Jia Yan’s movements.
"Or are you saying you were hiding your true strength yesterday?"
He was truly astonished.
But now, in the heat of battle, Jia Yan would not respond; he had no reason to.
If the opponent didn’t attack, Jia Yan would go on the offensive directly!
"Thrusting needs more variety!"
Jia Yan’s forelimbs stabbed forward, and during the attack, he made a slight variation in the initial attack trajectory!
The Electric Society clearly was a bit uncertain about where Jia Yan might strike, and a mistake in his dodge effort left his flank exposed.
"Opportunity!" Jia Yan felt a surge of excitement at heart and instantly launched an attack in that direction!
But before he could strike, a terrifying lightning-like ’Shadow’ suddenly appeared before him!
Jia Yan was startled and hurriedly blocked with his attacking forelimb.
The two clashed, neither gaining the upper hand.
Using the rebounding force, both took steps back.
Jia Yan watched his opponent’s figure, while the Electric Society also began to view Jia Yan with some wariness.
What had blocked Jia Yan’s attack was an extra limb attached in front of the Electric Society’s body that Jia Yan did not expect could stretch out and almost hit the mark when he came close!
Indeed, one should never underestimate an unknown creature. Its physiological structure and method of combat all required attention.
There was a very vigilant severity in Jia Yan’s eyes.
You see, a wound would mean losing, and the judge wouldn’t care whether Jia Yan had his Bluish defense or not.
The Electric Society, too, watched Jia Yan warily; had it not been for his close-quarter defense moves, he might have lost already!
He could not figure out Jia Yan’s true strength.
He had never imagined that Jia Yan, who seemed unremarkable while watching from below yesterday, had today become his formidable opponent. It was incredible!
"Talking about Jia Yan fighting the Celestial Dragon people, I fought with Tian Chen before, and that fellow couldn’t even beat me. But this Jia Yan only seemed to manage a draw with Tian Chen, and now he’s holding his own against me?"
The Electric Society was baffled, uncertain if Big Mosquito was hiding his true abilities, or if he had improved this much in such a short time. If it was the latter, that was terrifying!
"Never mind that, the final victory in this fight will definitely be mine. I can’t break my promise to Tian Tian!"
When the Electric Society thought of Tian Tian, he felt an upsurge of power!
"Jia Yan, die!" This Strong One now considered Jia Yan as an equal opponent; he didn’t want to fail his promise to Tian Tian, so he attacked with tremendous ferocity.
Jia Yan twisted his body, dodging to one side based on his experience combined with the tactical methods taught in those books.
Then, his speed abruptly increased!
His forelimbs struck at the exposed abdomen of his opponent!
