Zhao Yueru was speechless upon hearing Gentle Snow's explanation; she was dazed as she stared at Soaring Snake.

Soaring Snake had never been so powerful in the past.

They never knew he possessed such talent. He had actually hidden his true strength so well. With this, who else could be his match in close combat?

While ordinary people could launch three to four attacks, Soaring Snake could launch fourteen or fifteen attacks. He was invincible.

Chances were that the only way to defeat Soaring Snake was to pull away and attack from a distance. Melee classes had no chance of winning.

"Hahaha! Ye Feng is indeed commendable for discerning Soaring Snake's ability. However, there is no way Soaring Snake will lose this match!" A huge smile appeared on Cao Chenghua's dignified face.

As long as Soaring Snake won this match, this competition would come to an end. Meanwhile, he would officially take hold of the position of Guild Leader.

Everything was going exactly as he had expected.

...

"I was just warming up. If I take this fight seriously, I will only become faster. You are pretty amazing for blocking my last two attacks. Let's see how many attacks you can block."

Although Soaring Snake was slightly surprised by how quickly Shi Feng had discerned his talent, his opponent could never overcome it. There was not a single Swordsman who could beat him.

Swordsmen mainly relied on their normal attacks in battle. It was a class that wore down their enemies by attrition. If faced with a ranged class, Soaring Snake might have had some difficulties. However, against another Swordsman, he was practically invincible with his reaction speed.

Moreover, he had also grasped Omnivision. He could easily perceive his enemy's every movement and strike their weak points. Combining this martial arts technique with his inhuman reaction speed, in a melee battle, he was invulnerable.

As he said so, Soaring Snake abruptly stomped on the ground, and like a fierce gale, his body shot towards Shi Feng.

Straight-line attacks could usually be easily seen and dealt with. Despite knowing this, however, Soaring Snake still chose to face Shi Feng head-on, as if saying, "Come at me if you can."

"You want to compete with speed?" Shi Feng's frown deepened.

Facing Soaring Snake, someone with such a unique talent, would be disadvantageous for Shi Feng. Although Soaring Snake's assault had many flaws, the Swordsman was not afraid of exploitation. Even if Shi Feng attacked Soaring Snake, the latter could easily perceive the attack with his Omnivision. With Soaring Snake's reaction speed, before Shi Feng's sword could reach him, he would have already evaded it.

Following which, Shi Feng activated the Aura of Wind of the Seven Luminaries Ring, increasing his Movement Speed by 40%, Attack Speed by 40%, and Agility by 30%. He then dashed forward to meet Soaring Snake in battle.

With breakneck speed, Soaring Snake had sent out sixteen sword images, forcing Shi Feng to deal with sixteen attacks simultaneously.

However, after activating the Aura of Wind, Shi Feng's speed allowed him to deflect all sixteen attacks easily.

For the time being, both sides were equally matched.

Despite Shi Feng having a huge advantage in terms of speed, Soaring Snake's reaction speed was unmatched. Even if Shi Feng's attacks were faster, Soaring Snake could respond instantaneously.
