281 Golden Gauntle (1/2)
Ninja King's sudden death made the people who had been watching the fight suddenly feel that it was not real.
Even the people from Beautiful Robes Faction were dumbfounded and had exaggerated expressions saying that they could not accept seeing Ninja King lying motionless on the ground and catching his last breath. It was especially so since they had personally witnessed him killing more than one hundred elites from the three sects. He had handled them with ease and had been totally unperturbed by their attacks. Even Happy had not dealt him a lot of damage when they had fought earlier.
But they did not know that even though Ninja King did not seem to have suffered from any injuries and his golden armor had negated most of the damage, his internal injuries had accumulated over time. They were not something that could be ignored.
Besides, since Happy executed Seven Stars Sword Styles while he was nearly at the peak of Mystical Realm after Ninja King had clashed with him dozens of times, the injuries on Ninja King's body had been magnified, and his internal injuries became even more serious.
When Ninja King vaguely noticed it, Happy had already made arrangements for it.
Seven Stars Brilliant Moon was a technique that could be used separately, but could also be executed in the form of a chain attack.
The former was only slightly stronger than normal skills, but the power of the chain attack was not something a normal person could withstand!
*****
For high-tier martial arts, the higher their qi realms were, the greater their profound skills would be, and they would also deal even more damage.
However, it was not that easy to successfully execute the skills!
First, the users had to have great control over the battlefield and a deep understanding of the skill, or else, the possibility of them missing or not getting the effect they wanted would be very high.
Also, the enemy's strength was also a critical factor that decided whether the attack could be executed successfully.
The last factor was the most troublesome one. It was the rational arrangement of the chain attack. The player had to have a certain degree of understanding toward the martial art. They needed to predict their enemy's next move and make appropriate adjustments. They could not just move with the skill. In World of Martial Arts, that sort of martial art which would only be executed by fools could not be considered as a true profound skill.
*****
Happy believed that his control over all of those things was pretty good.
From the beginning, he knew that it was impossible for him to successfully pull it off against Ninja King. Hence, he decided to use the wild battle tactic of fighting head-on against him until he could exacerbate Ninja King's injuries.
The Life and Death Realm Ninja King clone still had some very obvious weaknesses.
Once his injuries were brought to light, Happy seized the chance to activate Seven Stars Brilliant Moon. Once he was sure that it would be effective, he executed the chain attack, and while the styles at the start were not enough to destroy the golden armor around Ninja King's body and could not kill the clone, all of it was in preparation of the strongest style of Seven Stars Sword Styles, which was the final style of Seven Stars Brilliant Moon and contained the strongest will of the sword.
It stacked with the damage from the previous six swords as well. At that moment, Happy's damage was equivalent to the full-powered strike of an ultimate technique of Life and Death Realm. With how heavily injured Ninja King's clone was, there was no way he could withstand it. In a moment, he died at Happy's feet.
”Whew!”
”Successfully killed Ninja King!
”Battle Danger Assessment: Class A!
”Killed Ninja King's clone. Seven Stars Sword Styles increased by one level. Seven Stars Sword Style: Level 96.29.
”Received 500 chivalry points. Received 100 reputation points!”
The clear sound of the system's notification rose by Happy's ears.
However, what concerned him the most was the Class A battle assessment. It had directly increased his Seven Stars Sword Styles by a level, which reduced his future training time by quite a lot.
