The hilt ignited with red light that burrowed into Yang Yu's palm, draining his life value and turning it into a powerful attack that clung to the sword blade.

"Sharp Blade"

Vorquis lifted his sword blade, and a streak of light flashed across it, greatly enhancing Vorquis's attack.

Faced with Yang Yu's "Double-sided Slash," Vorquis showed no fear.

To become stronger, Vorquis had clashed head-on with countless formidable demons and, after leaving the Library, he even learned from his mistakes and increased his speed a bit.

Along the way, the tactic of increasing speed proved effective, and Vorquis was able to defeat his opponents with incredible ease each time.

This time should be no exception.

When Yang Yu charged over, Vorquis could already envision the scene where Yang Yu would obediently admit defeat after his sword blade was instantly broken.

However, the moment Vorquis's sword blade was about to hit Yang Yu, Yang Yu's figure shifted like a ghost, avoiding Vorquis by a whole body's length.

Dodging the attack, Yang Yu slashed at Vorquis's chest with his sword.

"Protection Shield"

A flash of golden light shimmered, and a thick Shield unfolded from Vorquis's body, blocking Yang Yu's attack just in the nick of time.

Hapi, hovering in the air, aimed her sharp talons at Yang Yu's back and dived rapidly toward him.

Turning around and opening his Shield, Yang Yu activated "Shield Block," easily deflecting Hapi's attack.

But Hapi didn't give up; she lowered her body, pulled in her wings, and pressed her whole body toward Yang Yu, intending to completely knock him down.

However, Yang Yu's level was almost at one hundred.

With the increase in level, having absorbed quite a bit of Racial Essence, he also possessed extremely formidable Strength.

With a flick of his Shield to the left, Yang Yu flung Hapi off the Shield.

Hapi continuously flapped her wings, stabilizing her figure in the air, regretting that she couldn't knock down Yang Yu.

But thanks to Hapi's help, Vorquis really found an opportunity and swung several swords at Yang Yu again.

Unfortunately, these attacks were again deftly dodged by Yang Yu with minimal movements.

"It's somewhat useful, which is great, but Yixuan, Yixuan me, I can still do better!"

Hovering in the air, Hapi, watching Yang Yu like prey, looked for Yang Yu's weaknesses, but before she could prepare for her second attack, several gleaming arrows whistled through the air.

Hapi twisted and turned in the air, barely avoiding all the Light Arrows.

Only a few of Hapi's feathers were shot off, and Iyas did not get discouraged; using her agile figure, she quickly moved across the open ground, drew her bow again, and unleashed a combination of "Guaranteed Hit Arrow" and "Hunter Mark."

"Whoosh—" A bright Light Arrow disappeared in mid-air, and the next second, it appeared in front of Hapi's chest. Hapi flapped her wings, moving to the right, but ultimately it was still too late.

The Light Arrow penetrated Hapi's shoulder, and fresh blood immediately poured out from the wound.

Hapi gritted her teeth, enduring the immense pain from her shoulder, soared high, and swung her wings, sending several Wind Blades roaring toward the open ground where Iyas was.

Meanwhile, Iyas on the ground fully grasped the techniques Yang Yu had taught her, easily dodging Hapi's attacks before drawing her bow again.

As his attacks continued to be avoided, Vorquis increasingly overlaid the image of the man in front of him with that of the man he had encountered in the All Things Library.

This situation, this scene, was just like that time.

"But the man in front of him, named Potato Thorn, definitely couldn't be him."

"To upgrade so many levels in such a short time..."

"Even he, blessed by the goddess and trying so hard, couldn't do it, let alone an obscure man?"

"The attack missed again, and Vorquis no longer fixated on deciding the winner with Yang Yu, but instead, he headed straight for Bai Jin."

"Just as Yang Yu could see Hapi and Princess Eena's attribute values, Vorquis could also see the attribute values of Bai Jin and her companions."

"Bai Jin was a high-output magician; if he couldn't decide the outcome with Yang Yu immediately, the best choice was to take out this man's companion first to prevent them from launching surprise attacks from behind."

"Letting the magician perform incantations behind Yang Yu could lead to unforeseen magic attacks at any moment."

"As long as it would be one on one, defeating the staggering man in front of him, he could certainly defeat the man he had encountered in the All Things Library."

"Eliminating the fragile, low-mobility magician first would drag the battlefield into a one-on-one situation, showing the man in front what a real power gap was."

"Vorquis drew closer, and Bai Jin nonchalantly lifted her magic wand."

"A strange black array formed and spread out under her feet; as soon as Vorquis stepped into Bai Jin's "Ghost Shadow Formation," his speed instantly slowed, and small black ghosts leaped from the formation, clawing and biting at Vorquis."

"Vorquis slashed several ghosts with his sword blade and began to chant a prayer; countless blue and white butterflies appeared out of nowhere, fluttering around Vorquis, restoring his speed to normal."

"The skill Vorquis used was called "Life Source," a Holy Light System skill that could dispel a debuff and continuously recover HP and MP during its active state."

"In Yang Yu's view, "Life Source" was a skill with a very low cost-performance ratio."

"But it must be said, the skill effect was indeed very pretty."

"But Yang Yu would not choose such a skill just because it looked good."

"Yang Yu was pragmatic; as long as a skill was useful, it didn't matter to him whether the skill effects were pretty or plain and simple."

"However, thinking back, heroes really do have "many" skill points."

"Although deducing that heroes and he had similar panels, Yang Yu was still unsure if there were differences."

"Ever since learning "Red Blood Path," Yang Yu hadn't learned any new skills for a long time."

"On one hand, he didn't know how many skill points would be needed for "Dancing in the Air" and "Fury Blood."

"On the other hand, Yang Yu was deliberately conserving his skill points..."

"In case he encountered an unbeatable opponent later and had no good solution, he could still promptly learn skills to tailor his strategies."

"The hero's approach of completely disregarding cost-efficiency and learning flashy but marginally useful skills, Yang Yu strongly condemned."

"In an instant, with a "Support Charge," Yang Yu appeared in front of Bai Jin, lifting his shield high, as red spurs instantly covered it."

"As the hero's sword blade touched Yang Yu's shield, a red electrical current shot straight towards Vorquis's heart, making him wince."

"Vorquis retreated actively, as black shadows twined around Yang Yu's sword blade."

"With that forward thrust, the sword blade deeply pierced Vorquis's arm, sending him flying back."

"An indescribable pain surged, and Vorquis incredulously looked at his own blood bar, wondering where such damage could have come from given Yang Yu's current strength."

"Before Vorquis could ponder further, Bai Jin's Frost Ice Arrow followed closely behind."
