Chapter 285: Chapter 133: I am the first, who dares to be the second?

Everyone saw through Gao Xin’s ambition, but still, they did not make a move to interfere.

On one hand, they did not believe the final result would be a triple tie.

Did they think Ling Sha was just there for show?

The most Gao Xin could do was to save Ling Sha when he was about to die and to save the Swamp Crocodile when it was on the brink of death.

Flipping sides like this, trying to please both parties, he was simply courting death!

Who’s to say that when he tried to save Ling Sha, Ling Sha wouldn’t turn around and slaughter him?

After that, Ling Sha and Lin An could still join forces to take out the Swamp Crocodile; they could succeed all the same.

What made Gao Xin think that by betraying the others to help Ling Sha, he wouldn’t be killed by Ling Sha?

On the other hand, those on the second floor who didn’t lose money, or only lost one point, didn’t need to rush to intervene.

Let those with bigger losses make their move; they could swoop in for the spoils.

The Steel Axe and Iron Hand’s one point were already dead in the water, so changing the betting now wouldn’t benefit them.

It was better to let Gao Xin accumulate all points; by taking him out, one could snatch up 22 points in one go.

It was hard to say whose hands the final points would fall into.

By now, everyone had their own schemes, watching the duel march toward its conclusion.

In the Duel Arena, the battle was split into two zones, each fighting their own fight.

Upon the initial exchange with Lin An, Gao Xin quickly assessed his opponent’s strength. Not bad... about as formidable as Gao Shu.

Even slightly more fearsome because Lin An had better equipment.

He wore a set of light armor, and even his boots could make him move faster, his figure like a specter.

His weapon was even more remarkable—a Soft Sword that could bend and straighten at will, often bypassing blocks to strike Gao Xin.

If it were only a whip-like lash, it would have been tolerable, but this sword also electrified!

"Zap!"

After several hits, Gao Xin’s skin split and flesh burst, the contact points blackened, spreading electric-like patterns.

"Kid, don’t you have any resistance to electricity?" Lin An laughed.

He remembered how Gao Xin was previously shocked by a door, such a pitiful sight.

Although his own Soft Sword was not as powerful, it was by no means weak.

Even if it couldn’t kill a Tiger Level, it could injure the opponent, causing internal damage and a brief paralysis effect.

In this way, even when facing an enemy stronger than himself, he still had a fighting chance.

Gao Xin said with a smile, "Resistance to electricity? Yeah, I don’t have any..."

"But my blade does!"

Gao Xin suddenly swung the Demon Blade in a circle, predicting Lin An’s unpredictable Soft Sword trajectory and hooking onto it.

The Soft Sword could bend and straighten, just like a whip, and could still strike Gao Xin even if blocked by the blade.

However, the electric effect was gone.

"Smack!"

Instantly, it was as if a plain sword strike left a red mark on Gao Xin’s arm, with hardly any force behind it.

"Hmm?" Lin An’s eyes narrowed as he saw the high voltage from his Soft Sword absorbed!

"The Demon Blade, huh..."

As the battle raged relentlessly, Lin An deployed tactic after tactic.

But Gao Xin could block his Soft Sword with the Demon Blade every time, then absorb the electrical energy within it.

He didn’t even have to block it well; as long as the Demon Blade touched the Soft Sword, the electricity would dissipate.

Lin An’s ace move had been completely neutralized, a natural counter.

"Hiss... At this rate, I might die at his hands..."

Lin An concentrated completely, not daring to relax in the slightest.

Gao Xin’s blade work was too exquisite; he exerted all his effort but still couldn’t break through the defense.

Even more, Gao Xin often found opportunities for surprise attacks, nearly severing Lin An’s neck with a slash.

If it weren’t for Gao Xin’s slow striking speed and Lin An’s Power Acceleration Boots allowing explosive movements, he probably wouldn’t have lasted a minute against this man.

"Tai Sui, you are very strong," said Lin An earnestly.

Gao Xin chuckled, "So are you."

Lin An narrowed his eyes, "You had several chances to seriously injure me, why were you slow to strike? You’re quite fast when blocking me!"

Gao Xin grinned, "Oh, well, I can’t help it; I’m only good at defense..."

"Not so good at offense!"

The battle between the two was intense, clanging sounds of sword and blade frequently colliding, sparks flying everywhere, like an extraordinarily brilliant display of swordsmanship.

But upon reflection, besides the consumption of physical strength, both were almost at their peak condition, with hardly any serious injuries.

All damage was borne by their respective weapons...

In comparison, the fight between Ling Sha and the Swamp Crocodile was far bloodier.

The roar of the battle was incessant, spreading across a good half of the Duel Arena, with each move a deadly strike, the fight exceedingly brutal.

Time unconsciously passed, over twenty minutes.

"Boom!"

Ling Sha and the Swamp Crocodile collided once more, both having destroyed each other’s internal organs, their Exoskeleton Armor completely shattered, and even the armor on their bodies severely damaged.

Both were like blood-drenched beings, lacking any extra defense, entering a stage of trading blood for blood, life for life.

At any moment, life and death could be decided, the difference a mere instant.

"Now’s the chance!"

The spectators on the stands suddenly brightened.

Ling Sha’s Sky Dragon Fist soared from below, directly piercing the Swamp Crocodile’s chest.

The Swamp Crocodile’s body broke completely, his upper body severed and flung away.

He was too badly injured, and even as he clenched his teeth and supported his broken body with a slap of his hand, at this point, with one Arrow Step from Ling Sha, a Blast Energy Punch would have smashed the Swamp Crocodile’s head.

Faced with such a situation, the Swamp Crocodile panicked.

He was defeated, one move short.

He could only cry out, "Tai Sui, save me!"

"Coming right up," Gao Xin chuckled, immediately ceasing combat with Lin An, sheathing his blade, and moving to the side of the Swamp Crocodile.

Truly alongside the body, he then picked up the Swamp Crocodile’s lower half and dragged it over to where the upper body lay.

"You should be able to repair yourself, right?" Gao Xin tossed the broken body at him.
