Chapter 1089 An Arrow  

After all, the Elf Clan had always possessed terrifying talents in magic and archery.

Burton Galt had specialized in archery since a young age, so he naturally had absolute confidence in the field of archery.

When he noticed that Liu Yan, a newcomer, was also using a Bow and Arrow, Burton Galt became even more certain of his chances of winning the battle.

From a distance, Burton Galt gazed at Liu Yan and calmly stated, "Since you're a newcomer and part of Lu Dajiang's territory, I'll let you make the first move. This will give a newcomer like you a chance to sharpen your skills, and I can assess your strengths. This way, I won't take you down too quickly."

Liu Yan found Burton Galt's request for him to initiate the duel quite peculiar, but he agreed without hesitation.

Liu Yan promptly raised his S-grade weapon, the Flying Cloud Mystic Bow.

He activated his SS-grade Fire Secret Art.

In the next moment, several fire-attribute elemental powers converged, forming fire-attribute arrow feathers.

Liu Yan was highly proficient in the Fire Elemental Domain. Although he was currently at the SS-grade Fire Secret Art level, he was very close to achieving the SSS-grade Fire Elemental Law.

As a result, Liu Yan's fire attribute elemental powers were exceptionally restrained.

The fire-attributed arrow feathers he had conjured appeared as ordinary, yellow arrow feathers to the average observer. Ordinary people would not be able to feel the heat or the terrifying power within them. They would even feel that Liu Yan's arrow feathers were extremely ordinary and had ordinary power.

Yet, in reality, restraint was the essence of true strength.

After all, restraint meant that all the power was contained, without the slightest bit of wastage.

Without hesitation, Liu Yan released the bowstring, and several arrow feathers, crafted from fire attribute elemental powers, sped towards Burton Galt.

Liu Yan purposely refrained from using his A-grade skill, tracking, as all of the arrow features striking Burton Galt would likely result in his instant demise.

By intentionally holding back, Burton Galt could evade some arrow feathers and safeguard his life. action

On the opposite side, Burton Galt calmly observed the arrow feathers that Liu Yan had fired and remarked, "They are remarkably fast, but their power seems rather ordinary. Overall, it's not bad. For a newcomer, it's considered adequate." Without delay, Burton Galt swiftly engaged in defense and evasion.

Although he perceived Liu Yan's arrow feathers as having average power, Burton Galt, as a long-range specialist, possessed only a moderately capable defense. Consequently, when confronted with any attack, he opted for defense and evasion, staunchly refusing to confront the attack head-on.

However, it didn't take long for Burton Galt to realize that the speed of Liu Yan's arrow feathers seemed somewhat exaggerated, leaving him no time to evade.

Burton Galt didn't have time to dodge. He came to a position and used a defensive skill, intending to take one of the arrows head-on.

Just as Burton Galt was brimming with confidence, believing that he could easily take on the challenge and soon demonstrate what true archery prowess meant to Liu Yan, Burton Galt's expression suddenly changed.

Burton Galt's defensive skill was effortlessly pierced by one of Liu Yan's arrow feathers, continuously breaking through.

In the blink of an eye, it had reached Burton Galt.

Burton Galt immediately realized that something was amiss and quickly employed a treasured item on his chest for protection.

As the arrow feather landed on Burton Galt's protective item, its concealed power erupted in that instant.

The terrifying fire attributes elemental powers ran rampant and detonated.

A large crater instantly formed in the surrounding area.

When the smoke cleared, Burton Galt appeared disheveled, severely wounded.

Burton Galt had only been directly hit by one of the arrow feathers, despite utilizing his protective item to mitigate a considerable portion of the damage. Nonetheless, he still sustained severe injuries.

If Burton Galt had been struck by an additional arrow feather or if his protective item had been slightly less effective, he might have perished on the spot.

Burton Galt wore a bewildered expression, his mind filled with questions.

How could a newcomer possess such terrifying strength?

It was only at this moment that Burton Galt finally realized he had underestimated his opponent. Not only was his opponent not weak, but they were also extraordinarily formidable!

Burton Galt was further perplexed. How could a newcomer possess such incredible strength? This was simply too inexplicable.

Despite his confusion, Burton Galt had no choice but to concede.

If he continued the battle, he would meet his end. As Burton Galt chose to concede, the voice of the Will of Tower resounded.

[Team Origin wins this match!]

[The opponent territory, please select the next player within one minute to continue the battle.]

[Team Origin has won this match. The reward is being randomly selected...]

[Randomization successful. Congratulations on obtaining: Group reward, each territory member experience points +30000!]

[The next one-on-one battle is about to begin. Please prepare!]

Upon hearing the Will of Tower report, those on Team Origin, including Lu Dajiang, were somewhat surprised.

While they were aware of Liu Yan's formidable strength and expected him to triumph over Burton Galt, they presumed it would be a hard-fought victory.

However, what caught them off guard was Liu Yan's effortless and overpowering triumph over Burton Galt, one of the Team Elf's foremost experts. Burton Galt possessed tremendous power, boasting a combat strength of 19 stars.

In the past, even Luo Feng, with his 19-star combat strength, had demanded a considerable amount of time for Liu Yan to overcome.

Therefore, in the eyes of Lu Dajiang and the others, they anticipated Liu Yan's victory but assumed it would be a strenuous battle.

Yet, they never foresaw that Liu Yan would so easily and dominantly defeat Burton Galt, one of Team Elf's most exceptional players.

From the battle's initiation to its conclusion, it took only a few minutes.

Liu Yan had effortlessly defeated Burton Galt with just a single move!

Initially, Lu Dajiang and the others had some concerns. They worried that even if Liu Yan could overcome Burton Galt, he might end up exhausted, making the subsequent battles more challenging. It seemed impossible for him to defeat the Team Elf's most formidable member.

However, it quickly became apparent that reality differed significantly from their expectations.

Burton Galt, although undeniably strong, appeared somewhat feeble in comparison to Liu Yan. He couldn't even dent Liu Yan's defenses.

Lu Dajiang remarked, "I knew Liu Yan was formidable, but I never expected him to be this powerful."

Wei Feng added, "Our thinking was misguided. We've been stuck in the past, assuming that Liu Yan is still the same person who barely bested Luo Feng. We failed to consider that, over time, Liu Yan, with his incredible talent, would undoubtedly progress in strength."

Huang Yuan chimed in, "I had a hunch that Liu Yan's power would improve, but I never anticipated such a substantial leap. It's truly astounding."

Ning Shanshan quipped, "This guy is indeed a monster."

Liu Qingrou contemplated, "It seems like our Team Origin has a real shot at victory?"

Murong Xue enthusiastically responded, "Great job! Liu Yan is showing them what we newcomers are made of."
