Second World

Wong was standing with his arms folded when Pallas announced the start of the match. He was still standing without moving a muscle.

"You are not going to finish this match quick?" Kill Order asked. "Should I be flattered because you take me as a worthy opponent?"

"Don't kid yourself, I never put you in my eyes," Wong replied. "I just want to show someone in the audience that every player here is nothing before me unless he comes down and challenges me."

"Oh?" Kill Order turned to the spectators' seats, wondering who his opponent was referring to. "Care to tell me who you meant? Maybe the person will challenge me after I defeat you."

"Hahaha, good joke! Tell you what? I will give you a benefit. I won't use my arms. How about that?"

Kill Order frowned. Wasn't this getting a bit too overboard? He then snorted. He concluded that it was only a taunt his opponent used to try to rattle him. Not using arms? He wanted to see how this person tried to keep his words. He had seen Wong's fight, he knew his opponent was a highly-skilled martial artist. But this world was based on the game system, the rules were different. Not to mention, he was not your average martial artist as well.

Kill Order's two hands held two daggers. One had a red blade that sometimes produced scorching smoke, the other had a blue blade that constantly chilled the air around it. These two daggers were both super rare weapons that delivered fire and ice damage.

He activated Poison Mastery. With this skill active, his attack would deliver fire, ice, and earth damages. Wong simply stared at him without any expression.

'Let's see you keep your words,' Kill Order thought and ran forward.

Wong continued to stay still despite Kill Order's threatening approach. When Kill Order was about to arrive, he lifted his right hand, preparing to deliver a stab. But suddenly, he made a hard jerk to the right.

An extremely fast shadow swept by the place where his head had been. He didn't see Wong moving. He had dodged the attack due to mana sense. If he only relied on his eyes, he would have been hit by that attack just now.

Kill Order looked down and realized that Wong was not exactly not moving. One of his knees was slightly bent. And then Kill Order felt the danger again, just as that leg with the bent knee turned into a blur.

This time, Kill Order didn't manage to dodge completely. He placed his two arms in front of him to block. He felt a very strong impact on his arms. He hurriedly retreated as multiple leg shadows swiped at him.

Kill Order retreated far away before stopping. He only stopped after realizing his opponent did not chase him. Wong was still standing in his original position. His two arms remained folded. His statement of not using his arms was not a taunt. Wong was even grinning now. A very smug grin in Kill Order's opinion.

"Shadowless kicks," Kill Order muttered while gritting his teeth. He was not going to let himself get humiliated like this. He swore he was going to make Wong regret the decision of not using his arms in this fight. He lunged forward again.

This time, before he arrived, he threw his left dagger. The dagger flew straight at Wong's head. But before it hit, Wong's leg came up and smacked the dagger away. The dagger that was smacked away vanished at the same time Kill Order also disappeared. The two appeared behind Wong's back, the dagger was already back in Kill Order's hand. Kill Order had used Phase Strike to get behind Wong.

Wong's body swiveled as he back kicked. A leg's reach is still longer than an arm holding a short dagger. If Kill Order proceeded with his attack. He would be hit by the kick while his opponent would still be unscathed, so Kill Order canceled his stab and jumped to the side, evading the kick. But he executed Unblockable Stab before that. A phantom dagger shot towards Wong as Kill Order moved away.

Wong's feet that had kicked out, retracted with a high speed as it lashed at the phantom dagger. Kill Order sensed a spike of mana in the battle monk's feet before it hit the phantom dagger. The phantom dagger was shattered from the kick.

Despite he had predicted it after sensing the unusualness in Wong's kick, Kill Order was still shocked that someone could stop the Unblockable Stab.

Wong jumped while Kill Order was still stunned. He finally moved away from his initial position. The Battle Monk class also gave him super jump ability. He was directly above Kill Order, his arms were still folded. His two legs turned into a blur.

Kill Order felt multiple kicks coming at him from all directions. There was no space for him to retreat. Out of option, he used Vanish. His body disappeared as Wong's storms of kicks rained on the floor where he stood a moment ago.

Wong sensed Kill Order's position. He ran in that direction.

Kill Order was not surprised seeing Wong gunning at him despite his invisibility. For a more skilled martial artist like Wong, the old orc should certainly have higher expertise in mana sense.

Kill Order used Combat Clone. He lost his invisibility when he used a skill, not that it mattered to Wong anyway. Two Kill Orders appeared at the same time. Since this clone was not an illusion and could deal damage, it had mana as well. Hence, it was more difficult to differentiate which was Kill Order's real body.

The two Kill Orders came at Wong from two sides. Wong was not flustered. His legs sent multiple shadow kicks. Repelling the two Kill Orders' stabs. Even with two bodies, Kill Order still found it hard to land any attack on Wong. That was already under the condition that Wong was not using his arms at all!

One of Kill Orders lunged forward forcefully, trying to land a stab without a care for his life. Wong figured this should be the clone. He dodged the forceful assault and made a roundhouse kick. The kick struck the clone's head, causing damage and sending him reeling.

Wong then approached the real Kill Order who was retreating. He used his shadowless kicks to stop Kill Order from escaping, before tapping Kill Order's hands with two quick kicks, opening him up for a larger attack. Wong then lifted his leg high and sent it down with a devastating axe kick.

The axe kick struck Kill Order squarely on the face. Wong seemed to be tired of this match and wanted to finish it, so he used mana manipulation in that axe kick. A huge damage number appeared above Kill Order's head.

When Wong thought the match was done, he suddenly sensed something from his back.

"What?" He was just about to turn back when a swift shadow arrived before him and stab onto his back.

The one that Wong had kicked away the first time had been the real Kill Order, while the retreating one was the clone. Kill Order had intentionally done a forceful assault to trick Wong into thinking he was the clone, giving him the chance when Wong was distracted.

He then used a non-standard skill, Fleeting Shadow Strike, this move turned his body into a shadow that zoomed forward with extreme speed and delivered a deadly strike. With Rogue's Backstab in effect, the resulting damage would be very high. It could possibly take out Wong in a single strike. At least that was what Kill Order hoped for.

At this time, however, the tip of his blade hovered a quarter inch away from Wong's body, unable to push forward.

"Steel Body? No… He will still receive damage despite that skill," Peniel muttered. Steel Body was Battle Monk's level 45 skill. It turned the Battle Monk's body into as hard as steel for thirty seconds and reduced damage received by 30%.

"That is not a game skill," Domon said. "That's Iron Shirt, a defensive martial art that accumulate chi at the point of impact and prevented the blow from hitting."

Kill Order, who was stunned by how his dagger refused to stab into Wong, felt extremely dense mana around the spot he was stabbing. The mana blocked the dagger from going further. This mana then exploded, pushing Kill Order back. Kill Order was the one attacking, but he was the one sent reeling back.

Wong turned around and sent a high left kick at Kill Order's head. Kill Order could feel the dense mana from the kick. It would not be a simple Battle Monk's standard damage if he was hit. He dodged away from the kick. But just as he did, he sensed another attack coming from the opposite side. He had only a glimpse before Wong's right feet slammed onto his head.

"Twin Dragon Kicks," Domon said.

"Twin Dragon Kicks…?" Jack turned to Red Death. It was similar to the double stabs that Red Death used on him during the warehouse fight. Perhaps Red Death modified this martial art into using daggers instead.

Kill Order lost control from that strong kick, his head slammed strongly to the floor.. The last thing he saw before reviving was Wong's foot stomping down on his face.
