Number One Dungeon Supplier-Chapter 1430 System Restart -Part 4
"Holy shit, Lynn sure is furious. How the hell does she know that Jin was fake in the first place?" Qiu Yue thought to herself as she took up position behind Lynn to give a follow up attack in case she failed her attack.
Another Panda Swipe came but Lynn learnt not to fall for the same attack twice and she managed to dodge it. However, what she did not expect was that the Panda Swipe had a combo move to it that she had never seen before.
The swipe immediately went forward almost immediately like how a ball got ricocheted away from the wall, forcing Lynn to block it with her sword when she initially wanted to use it to hit Jin with it. The swipe was able to knock her sideways, causing her to fly from the arena. Thankfully, her Penguin Cultivation was strong enough to allow her to ride the winds as if she was swimming in the ocean, enabling her to pivot back and return to the arena with qing gong. (TLDR: the penguin flew in the air!)
Yet, Lynn was a little giddy from the force itself and if she did not for herself to stay conscious, the Penguin Cultivator would probably be thrown out of the arena for good. There was no saying what the fake system had created as punishment beyond the arena but if it did, there would be sufficient reason to understand that it would not be something that was worthy to explore.
Qiu Yue on the other hand did not stop to rescue Lynn as she wished to take advantage of the fact that she was a fellow Sub System User to be able to take care of herself. With the power of money and the Empire Building Sub System at her side, she utilised the quickest sword technique the Red Panda Cultivator had learnt from the sword saint.
"Red Lotus Slash!" Using the prefix Red, which she was familiar with since it was similar to her Red Panda Cultivator Technique, it was the easiest and the stronger sword technique she learnt from Zeru. She was confident that Jin would not be able to counter it since he did not personally see Zeru fight before.
She was dead wrong.
As unfortunate as it was, this particular clone did not only gain Jin's cultivation level and his ability to use Maqi but copied all the combat experiences he had as well. That included the time he was in Suzaku's Endless Battlefield. Qiu Yue had no idea that he had been fighting Zeru for who knows how many countless times and Red Lotus Slash was merely a technique Jin had to handle while fighting against the young Sword Saint.𝙛rℯ𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝓷𝗼𝐯e𝗹.𝒄𝐨m
The fake Jin countered with his Blue Panda Ice Energy Slash with his counterfeit Bam, parrying Qiu Yue's fiery Red Lotus slash with ease and even used his empty hand to slam her shoulders downwards.
Naturally, Qiu Yue was surprised by the counter and could feel the immense pressure his palm strike could be. It was initially painful until she felt a numbing sensation paralysing her right shoulder. Ice was encapsulating her entire shoulder with such speed that she need to escape from his attack range in order to recover. However, she was further pinned down as the ground started to tremble around her as if swallowing her.
Another Maqi technique that utilised Earth energy and there was no way for Qiu Yue to break free unless she had help.
"Kitchen Creation! Rocks and Dirt be my ingredients!" Lynn shouted from afar and the earth around Qiu Yue started to rumble even further that it engulfed her entirely. The moment she opened her eyes once more, she realised that she was on the other end of the arena where Lynn was situated.
The Penguin Cultivator simultaneously used her chi to melt the ice on Qiu Yue's shoulder, enabling her to move it again. "What the hell, I never saw Jin counter Zeru's attack before. What had we been missing?!" The Empire Building Sub System User rubbed her shoulders while she drank a recovery potion to get her chi and body back to shape.
"I never taught him to such an extent that he could counter my techniques." Zeru emerged right beside Qiu Yue and stood in front of the girls who were injured. "Even the most basic of techniques had not been revealed to him with the exception of the few big moves I used against enemies. There is no way he would have gained insight so easily into it unless the System had given him access to my techniques without my permission."
"As per past records, the System did no such thing. The Sub System guaranteed that the System had maintained its contract with Sword Saint Zeru." The Sub System replied, attempting to ease the doubts.
"Then it must be that fake System," Lynn commented which allowed the collective of voices to chuckle.
"We did no such petty travesty. Everything you saw is what the original Jin had accumulated." The fake System said
"Then it's probably his subconscious training with Ming and the Four Cardinal Beasts." Kraft coughed out some blood while trying to stand steady. "As I said, do not underestimate Jin, he is stronger than you all make him out to be."
The moment Kraft stood up, the fake Jin who had been standing to allow his opponents to monologue, to take action. It seemed as if the Astral Panda Cultivator knew who the danger was.
"Did I allow you to take another step forward without any permission?" Zeru whispered to the clone. Even for the Sword Saint could feel the pressure that the fake Jin was eluding and knew he was indeed dangerous even for him.
Yet, the imposter did not speak another word as he turned his sword's angle a little in an attempt to move past Zeru.
"You are asking for a fight that you would not be able to handle." The Sword Saint said as he too had released his chi as the clash of swords took a drastic turn.
