Chapter 794: Japan Versus South Korea I
The fight between China Versus Poland ended with the victory of the Chinese national team. The solo match is won by Hou Yiwei himself. The player from the Polish national team did well but he is outclassed by the rank one player.
The team battle is the same as the Polish team fought to the bitter end but the Twin Blades and Hou Yiwei being serious made them almost undefeatable. The battle is not entirely one sided as the Polish team made the Chinese national team release their hidden cards as they also did the same.
The next match between the two countries is the most heated of all due to their history. The match between Japan and South Korea is the most anticipated of the early matches. The bets for this match would be the Japanese team due to their all-star line up.
The solo match of the two teams is announced and the players that came forth are Blade and Ain. The second ranked player versus Ain who is currently fifth ranked and the guild master of Valor. The two entered their gaming pods as soon as Ain chose the Avalon battleground.
Unlike the others that are sent a bit far from each other, the both of them materialized only ten meters away from each other. The Avalon map is not that big as it is held on a miniature island instead of the main island location. There are no buildings though as it is only just the floating island as the designated battlefield.
The two did not show any ceremony and started their clash. Blade used the incredible reach of his blade to aim towards Ain’s neck, but the latter managed to evade it by just an inch. Ain use the chance as Blade is still mid swing to aim for the latter’s abodomen.
Ain used a palm strike which made Blade recoil a few feet away as a result. Blade’s health decreased by 3% as a result of that attack. The damage might not be that much, but Blade can now evaluate the strength of his opponent.
The rankings are just an indication of character level and not actual combat potential. This is the reason why some of the players in Pandemonium regard Equinox, the Demon, as the strongest player. If you ask others, then they will answer Eldritch as he already defeated Hou Yiwei back then as well. But the prestige of the rank is still there.
Blade did not want to disappoint his team members and reinitiated the attack but this time he increased his focus. He aimed not for the neck this time but for Ain’s shoulder. Just as what happened before, Ain dodged the attack again by just a hair’s breadth and counterattacked.
Ain aimed for Blade’s chest this time as he wanted to deal an attack that can decide the match. Ain’s palm is suddenly covered by a mist like aura that is sky blue in color.
“Cascading Waterfall Palm Strike!” Ain stated as his palm connected with Blade’s chest.
Blade did not expect the high damage that he received and is sent flying in the sky. He became airborne and Ain followed up his attacks one after another.
“Swallowing Crane!” Ain stated.
Ain’s right foot got covered in the sky-blue aura that he used earlier and chained his attacks against Blade. Blade could not do anything as he is under the effects of ‘Disoriented’ status ailment. He became a punching bag mid-air and his health started to decline rapidly.
When Blade’s health reached 20%, he managed to recover from the status ailment that he received. He can now move once again but Ain looked like he wanted to finish the match immediately. Blade could see Ain charging his body with the aura that covered him.
Blade knew that he would lose unless he used one of his hidden skills. He decided that losing this match might make them lose the competition as a team battle against a necromancer is not easy. He weighed the options and decided to use his exclusive job class skill.
“Shattering Rain!” Ain stated as his whole body got covered in his aura. He intends to finish the event quickly. In a battle of stamina, he would be in equal terms against Blade, but he has far too low damage output compared to the rank 2 player.
“Demon Sword: Awaken!” Blade shouted as a dark red aura suddenly exploded from his sword that covered his whole body.
The two players clashed in mid-air which resulted in their auras colliding against each other. When both their aura’s collided against each other, a huge pillar of smoke covered the whole area which impeded the view of the match.
When the smoke cleared, they saw the two still in mid-air. Ain’s foot that is covered in aura is being blocked by the Blade’s katana. Ain looked the same but the same cannot be true for Blade. His clothes that were a mixture of blue and green is now black and red in color scheme.
The clothes are not the only thing that changed as Blade’s face is now covered by a mask that looked like a demon character. The demon mask has two horns on the temple instead of the head like that of an imp. But the one who verified that it was indeed a demon mask would be none other than Adrian.

“Are you really sure that is a demon?” Marlon asked as he knows that demons are not that in facial feature.
“That is because, he is not yet fully using his weapon to the fullest. That mask is meant to parody the demons which is why it does not look accurate. If you also look at his right hand, it is not a human’s hand anymore but a demon’s hand.
His left hand remains that of a human which means he is not fully demonized. Inside of that katana that he holds must be one of the sealed demons back then.” Adrian stated.
