Dominating the Pugilistic World With My Detective Skills

Based on his knowledge, Ye Weiming knew that there was only one skill in the entire ‘Eternal Justice’ that could forcefully attract the hatred of a boss immediately.

That was his Daizhong Way!

But this time, Ye Weiming didn’t start calculating with his left hand. Moving his left hand was just an important segment in the activation of Daizhong Way. It wasn’t a necessary step.

That meant that Daizhong Way could still be activated even if he didn’t move his fingers.

Calculating with his fingers could simplify the calculation process to a certain extent.

How much could it simplify? For instance, when he moved his fingers, the math question might be a multiple of a three-digit and a two-digit number. If he didn’t move his fingers, it would be a multiplication question of two three-digit numbers. The difficulty of the questions would increase exponentially. This would increase the possibility of making a mistake since the number was very big. Thus, under normal circumstances, Ye Weiming would move his left fingers when he wanted to activate the Daizhong Way, as this would give him more confidence.

However, this time, Ye Weiming didn’t plan to activate the active effects of Daizhong Way. He just wanted to use this skill as a powerful mocking technique. Thus, naturally, he didn’t care about the difficulty of the questions.

He mentally solved the math question that appeared in front of his eyes to maintain the mocking effects of Daizhong Way. At the same time, he continued observing the distance between Ji Laiye and him. Ji Laiye was already within ten feet away from him. In a moment, the two of them would be within each other’s attacking range. This was when Ye Weiming gave up his mental calculation and twirled the Green Bamboo Sword in his hand. The green sword shadow had already engulfed his opponent.

Ye Weiming’s sword skill was vicious but Ji Laiye wasn’t an easy opponent either. Not only that, but he was also a level 23 boss who specialized in close-combat skills.

The moment a professional showed his hand, he would know how good he was. When the two of them started fighting, Ye Weiming felt that his opponent’s finger movement was very weird. Most of the time, he would get suppressed by his opponent’s fingers the instant he started his move. Thus, he had no choice but to change his move halfway through. He was being pulled by the nose. In this situation, after just three moves, Ye Weiming’s advantage of attacking first was destroyed by his opponent. If he continued fighting, he would just get beaten up by his opponent.

His ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’ was at level 8 but in the face of a boss specialized in close combat skills, there was nothing he could do!

Fortunately, he wasn’t fighting alone. Ye Weiming didn’t have any advantage in terms of his moves but his health was still full. On the other hand, the health bar above boss Ji Laiye’s head kept dropping.

Ji Laiye had to focus on fighting with Ye Weiming so he wasn’t able to guard against Tang Sancai. This big brother of the Tang Clan was able to continue dealing damage comfortably. While Ji Laiye was handling Ye Weiming’s sword skills, he wasn’t able to effectively dodge or block Tang Sancai’s concealed weapons. Thus, the one dropping health was him.

It was impossible for Ji Laiye to get away from Ye Weiming now. The only way he was able to turn the tide was to shoulder Tang Sancai’s attack and take advantage of his large health bar to kill this irritating brat before he was killed.

However, just as he was about to release his full strength and stabbed Ye Weiming to death, he realized to his astonishment that this fellow had changed his move.

That’s right!

Since using the ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’ wouldn’t give him any advantage, Ye Weiming decided to give up on dealing damage and obediently executed the ‘Dragon-Phoenix Sword’. He started focusing on defense.

The sudden change in his moves caused Ji Laiye to feel that his opponent seemed to have changed entirely. Before this, Ye Weiming felt like a porcupine. If you weren’t careful enough, you would get pricked by him. Now, he was more like a huge tortoise. He wasn’t as threatening as before but Ji Laiye didn’t know where he could lay his hands on.

No matter how he twirled his sword, he couldn’t break the wall of defense this fellow had. It was like a tortoiseshell.

The biggest strength of ‘Dragon-Phoenix Sword’ was that its defense was powerful. However, that was its only strength. It didn’t have any offensive ability and thus he couldn’t keep his opponent from leaving. This was a loophole. Realizing he was going nowhere, Ji Laiye immediately turned his body and rushed towards Tang Sancai, who was standing behind him and dealing damage. Then…

“Come back!”

Ye Weiming mocked Ji Laiye again and successfully shifted all his hatred over. He continued using his ‘Dragon-Phoenix Sword’ to fight with Ji Laiye. Ye Weiming played defense comfortably while Tang Sancai continued dealing damage without moving.

Ye Weiming realized that this defensive sword skill was extremely good to use when combined with the mocking effects of Daizhong Way!

Ji Laiye couldn’t break through Ye Weiming’s defense. If he turned to fight with Tang Sancai, he would get frightened by the Daizhong Way. Thus, Ji Laiye had to think of a new method. He continued fighting with Ye Weiming but he decreased the tempo of his attacks greatly. He placed his main focus on defending against Tang Sancai’s long-range attacks. Because of this, Tang Sancai found it hard to break through Ji Laiye’s defense when he used to be able to get a 60% hit rate with his concealed weapons.

Ji Laiye heaved a sigh of relief. He could only hope for his eldest brother to be able to take care of Bai Zhanji quickly and reinforce him.

Then…

“Pfft!”

-1511!

Poisoned!

This critical hit by Ye Weiming was powerful enough to deal the same amount of damage Tang Sancai had dealt in the past one minute. The health bar above Ji Laiye’s head dropped by a huge chunk. It was a noticeable difference. The color turned from fresh red to dark green!

This explosive damage not only caused Ji Laiye to scream in pain, but it also caused Tang Sancai to jump in fright. He stopped throwing his concealed weapons instinctively.

This fellow’s attack was so strong?

He recalled his battle with Ye Weiming and secretly wiped his cold sweat. If that sword landed on his body, he would be killed instantly. There was no need for a second swipe of the sword!

“Stop daydreaming. Continue attacking!”

Tang Sancai regained his senses after hearing Ye Weiming’s reminder. He continued shooting his concealed weapons at the boss.

After trying all sorts of tactics, Ji Laiye still wasn’t able to find a way to break through his situation. Furthermore, most of his attributes were lowered because he was poisoned so under the combined attacks of the two players. Soon, he went onto Ge Angshou’s path and died.

The move that killed him was Ye Weiming’s ‘Beauty Holding The Liver’.

Ding! You have successfully killed the level 23 boss, Ji Laiye. You received 300 EXP and 300 Cultivation.
