The shi+eld swung down

Rhode dodged Anne’s attack, which had brushed hiolden shi+eld, Rhode stretched his hand back and grabbed Joey’s arm as he leaped over Then, Rhode turned around and threw Joey to the front

Joey knew that he was about to collide into Anne’s shi+eld and both parties tried to avoid the collision However, just when Anne extended her ared behind Joey He jumped over Anne and dashed toward Lize, who stood behind her

Lize was taken aback, but she was reacted swiftly She raised her arht descended from the sky However, the bea off Anne’s shi+eld As a result, the beams struck Anne instead

“L-Lize!”

The defenseless Anne was instantly weakened and fell on her bum Before Lize was able to ed before her Then, a suffocating pain eed spells She instinctively took two steps back and gasped for air At this moment, Rhode landed a heavy punch on Lize’s turound On the other hand, Marlene sulked and hurriedly raised her staff She ai Lize’s plight This moment of hesitation cost her her best chance to strike

Marlene didn’t knohen did Rhode appeared by her side All she felt was Rhode’s sli her wrist In an instant, the intense pain forced Marlene to drop her staff

“This is the end”

Rhode released his hand and said with his usual emotionless face

“Phew…”

Everyone stared blankly Randolf had been knocked out from the very start Joey laid flat beside Anne and hadn’t recover from his daze yet Anne laid weakly and could only wait for Lize to dispel the curse fro and wouldn’t be able to recover for a while to treat Anne

“All of you perforreat,” Rhode said

After the waruys had becoh they knew that they were mentally-unprepared for the atmosphere in the warm-up matches, that didn’t mean that their skills and techniques were unfor their heads straight on where their exact weaknesses were

“Anne, there are still flaws in yourthe shi+eld It’s not necessarily better for your shi+eld to transform into all sorts of shapes and sizes The different forms of your shi+eld each have their unique structures, strength and speed Even though nore of them, that doesn’t mean your opponents can’t either”

Rhode turned to the rest

“Lize, your battle techniques aren’t skillful enough yet Such techniques focus on rhythm, but do remember that you should be the one in control If your opponent doesn’t follow your rhythm, you must immediately think of a way to turn the tide and not just stand there blankly getting beaten”

“Yes… Mr Rhode”

Lize stood up forcefully and gritted her teeth Rhode twitched his brows and looked at Joey

“Joey, you are irascible—too irascible Reh to reveal their weaknesses for you to take advantage Thieves should pay particular attention to killing in a single strike, so be too mindful on how many times you attempt to attack Before the opponent reveals his weakness, you must be aware of whether it’s a chance or trap”

“Okay… I-I understand… Leader…”

Joey said even though he was still seeing stars Although Anne e her position in time for Joey to not crash his head fully on her shi+eld, he was still dazed fro collision

“Marlene”
