Letting out a clear shout, Wang Xin was the first to attack, charging towards the Li Dragon.

Earlier, she hadn't found an opportunity to strike, but now with the Li Dragon at the bottom of the cliff, she could finally unleash her full strength. Her blade, thin as a cicada's wing, sparked with a fiery glow, like a phoenix rising from the ashes—quick and fierce!

Just as the Li Dragon landed, Wang Xin's blade slashed down. Its target was the precise spot on the Li Dragon's body injured during its clash with Han Ying. With the explosion of True Qi, even if her power was slightly weaker, the blade still cut into the wound deeply, causing dragon blood to splatter and scorching the surrounding flesh beneath the intense flame.

Alas, such an injury still only counted as a minor wound to the Li Dragon, nowhere near fatal.

Moreover, in its pain, the Li Dragon's counterattack was extremely fierce. Its body twisted abruptly, and its dragon claw thrust forward, aiming straight for Wang Xin's head.

The Li Dragon's claws were deadly sharp, far surpassing any sword. Should it connect, even ten Wang Xins wouldn't survive.

Crucially, Wang Xin had gone all out with her strike, leaving no room for maneuver. Against the Li Dragon's counter, there was no time to retract her blade to block.

Fortunately, Wang Xin was not fighting the Li Dragon alone.

Almost simultaneously with the Li Dragon's counter, Wang Junze's sword flashed out like lightning, precisely intercepting the dragon claw.

Initiate the Game!

Like a move in a game, the sword strike was astounding!

Boom!

In a life-and-death moment, Wang Junze's speed reached its peak. With a burst of True Qi, he met the dragon claw head-on, yet even so, he was sent flying back a dozen meters before barely stabilizing his stance.

Meanwhile, Han Ying's attack landed as well. Seizing the moment when the Li Dragon targeted Wang Xin and Wang Junze, a slash struck its neck, leaving a searing blade mark.

"Roar!"

Once again wounded, the Li Dragon's ferocity was fully provoked, emitting a Dragon's Roar. The terrifying sound wave exploded outward, causing countless rocks around to shatter and cascade down, and the Li Dragon lunged at Han Ying.

For Han Ying and Lin Kaiwei, these flying rocks posed no serious threat, but for Wang Junze, Wang Xin, and Lin Yong, they were extremely dangerous.

For a moment, the three could only focus all their efforts on deflecting the stones, unable to provide further assistance to Han Ying.

However, this time Lin Kaiwei could not stand by idly. Han Ying was in poor condition, and if killed by the Li Dragon, Lin Kaiwei would also suffer. With no other choice, he raised his sword again, shielding Han Ying from the strike.

Seeing this, Wang Junze breathed a sigh of relief.

Drawing the Li Dragon into a final showdown at the cliff's base was, in fact, preparation against Lin Kaiwei. Since Lin Kaiwei hadn't yet achieved Heaven-Stepping and couldn't fly directly, traversing from the base to the top of Broken Dragon Cliff took significant time. Only by cutting off his escape could they force him to give his all.

Only in this way was there a chance to defeat the Li Dragon in this battle.

"Master Lin Si, let's put aside our grievances for now. Let's join forces to slay this Li Dragon first, then discuss other matters, how about it?"

Wielding his sword, Wang Junze charged at the Li Dragon again and shouted loudly.

"Alright!"

With an icy glint in his eyes, Lin Kaiwei agreed. In the face of life and death, any past feuds could be set aside temporarily.

"Lin Kaiwei, if you had made this decision earlier, this damned dragon wouldn't have rampaged for so long!"

Snorting coldly, Han Ying couldn't resist taunting Lin Kaiwei.

Of course, despite his words, Han Ying didn't hesitate in action. With a high swing of his blade, he charged back into the fray.

With this, they genuinely united. Wang Junze, Wang Xin, and Lin Yong provided backup and distraction, while Lin Kaiwei and Han Ying, both Refining Spirit powerhouses, unleashed their full might. In mere moments, they actually began to turn the tide.

As time passed, Wang Junze gradually became acquainted with the Li Dragon's combat style.

Despite its ferocity, the Li Dragon lacked sentience. No matter how strong or fast it was, its true attack methods were simply tail sweeps, pouncing, biting, and claw strikes.

In the Initiate the Game state, Wang Junze's perception was incredibly sharp. He began attempting to predict the Li Dragon's attacks, using the third sword of Chess Swordsmanship, Layout!

During his previous battle with Lin Kaiwei, Wang Junze had already brushed against the threshold of this third sword, although his understanding was quite rudimentary. Yet this fight with the Li Dragon steadily revealed the essence of this sword to him. While lacking the core Heart Method for perfect prediction, he gained a greater grasp on the battle.

Gradually, Wang Junze attempted to incorporate his teammates' attacks, predicting the Li Dragon's counters when Han Ying struck, and gauging Lin Kaiwei's timing, adjusting his own timing and positioning accordingly.

This process was extremely difficult, and it was impossible to predict correctly every time. However, even so, when Wang Junze acted according to this method, he felt the pressure on him significantly lessen.

This feeling was somewhat akin to playing chess, treating each person's attack as a move in the game. As long as he could anticipate the opponent's actions, a sense of having everything under control emerged, making victory seem less elusive.
