Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 51: Passing Obstacles
Because in the first way it didn't work out, Zhang Yu changed his way of fighting. He attacked the wooden puppet at close range and took the chance of incapacitating it with a surprise attack.
Of course it worked. But as before, the wooden doll re-assembled itself.
Zhang Yu almost lost his temper when faced with this lifeless thing. But for the umpteenth time the ambition in him was greater to complete the challenge of his teacher.
"Right now using the same means definitely won't work." Zhang Yu tried to attack with the universe sword. It had originally gone smoothly, but as it was about to give a surprise attack, the wooden puppet had guessed its movements.
The same attack would be useless in the next fight.
At this moment the heartless wooden puppet suddenly shot out its blunt hand that was shaped like a boxing glove.
Real quick. In the next second his blunt hand had hit the arena floor violently.
It was fortunate that Zhang Yu had such a quick reaction. Turning to the side dodged the attack even though it could not protect itself from the effects of the explosion energy overflow.
His body was dragged a few steps before he could stand up again. Her jet eyes scoured carefully trying to find a way to immobilize the wooden puppet.
Accidentally his attention was fixed on the black rope under his feet. Like a rope, but smaller.
"Where did this rope come from?" Zhang Yu followed the end of the black rope and it turned out to end up on the wooden puppet's arm.
Before Zhang Yu realized it, the wooden puppet pulled tightly onto the black rope making his hand that was on the other end shoot out fast like a bullet.
The sound of wind sounded very real. Zhang Yu's face became tangled looking at the wooden puppet hand that was behind him.
He jumped away. But the black rope had snared his leg. It forced Zhang Yu to unfurl the universal sword withstanding the attack.
Trank!
Not just strong. Despite having used his strength, Zhang Yu's trembling hands held back the attack. He calmly removed his foot from the rope and took ten steps back.
But that did not stop the wooden dolls. He instead shot out one remaining hand then twisted the two hands with a black rope connected to his arm.
No no no...
A loud voice rang out so noisy in the ears when his two hands collided.
Zhang Yu dodged whenever a blunt hand as big as the baby's head was eyeing him. While moving he thought of a way to defeat the wooden puppet.
At one time the wooden doll twisted her hand too quickly. He lost control and a fist hit his head.
Blam it!
His voice was extremely heavy and the wooden puppet staggered even nearly to a fall. Seen from a distance a deep scratch was on him. Right where his hand landed earlier.
Zhang Yu's frown got a hint.
The sword of the universe cannot hurt his body. Perhaps this sounded strange since the universe sword was a top grade weapon. But once again Zhang Yu remembered this was an illusionary veil. In this place, all weapons are the same. So it's no wonder that the sword of the universe can't do much.
But different things happen to wooden dolls. His hand could be the advantage he had. But at the same time it can be an alternative weapon to defeat him.
Double edged knife. Perhaps this saying is very apt to describe the situation of a wooden doll.
Zhang Yu carved a smile on his thin lips. One big plan had already been carefully arranged in his mind.
As if hearing that slow mutter, the wooden puppet thrust out one hand to attack Zhang Yu.
Blam it!
Zhang Yu shifted his body very calmly. The wooden puppet's fist smashed onto the floor of the arena and instantly left a patch of basin one inch deep.
Before pulling him back, Zhang Yu held back the rope with both hands. As the wooden puppets tried to get stronger, Zhang Yu also added to his strength.
This made the wooden puppet furious. Although he does not have emotions, but anger is a form of normalization. He swung the one remaining fist then swung it aiming for Zhang Yu.
Blam it!
It's a shame that the second shot missed too. Zhang Yu smiled looking at the wooden puppet fist that was several meters away from him. He plugged the universe sword to hold the first rope and took the second rope.
The wooden puppet tried strong, but Zhang Yu was no less powerful in defending it.
"Pull! Keep pulling!"
Seeing the black rope so tense, Zhang Yu grew even more excited. He started counting and prepared to release them simultaneously.
One, two ... Now!
Shutt...
The two fists instantly shot out so fast. The body of the wooden puppet jolted as it suddenly tug became light. He was unconscious, knowing that two fists came crashing down on his stomach and face.
Blam it!
Not just scattered or separated between the body, feet, and hands. But it actually disintegrated into tiny particles.
Perfect understanding of concepts and analysis. Zhang Yu's consciousness slowly returned to his body. He opened his eyes, looking at Shi Guan and the few disciples still standing beside him.
"I made it?" There was a lack of confidence in making sure he had managed to defeat the wooden puppet.
Just thought the wooden doll would bounce back like before. But it was completely destroyed.
"Guang Zhou ...." Looking up, Zhang Yu saw that Guang Zhou was already halfway to reaching the fifth stage. He was on the steps to one hundred and thirty-five. Now stand still there. It seemed like it was facing the second illusionary veil test.
Zhang Yu once again glanced at Shi Guan who had yet to complete the first stage. He stepped his foot up the next step of the ladder. But his body staggered when he felt the tremendous pressure from the stairs.
Ck!
"My strength was drained quite a lot when facing the wooden doll." Teeth bluffing. If it wasn't for that fight he wouldn't have been so tormented as he was going up the next rung.
"..."
However Zhang Yu did not think of giving up. He remained silent for a long time, then slowly moved his legs.
Sweat kept dripping down his clothes. Above the head was like carrying dozens of gigantic-sized stones.
One by one. Slowly but surely. He began to chase after the existence of Guang Zhou who was still unmoved at the rungs of the hundred and thirty-five steps.
But don't think he can think of anything else in his head. This pressure was even on par with his father's strength which was at the grand master level. There is only an attempt to survive.
