Awakening The Weakest Talent: Only I Level Up

Chapter 488 Swift, Fierce, Offensive

Duan Ying's spear landed on Lu Yu's body, and he pressed the body of the spear down on Lu Yu.

The sudden burst of power forced Lu Yu to bend over, showing signs of faltering.

Instantly, the surrounding people cheered.

"What a strong ally we have! He's pressing down on Lu Yu until he can't breathe!"

"As expected of the boss's ally. He's so strong. We're in for it now."

"Sheesh, what level is his strength at? It's great to have connections with such a person, boss!"

"Boss, someone can take revenge for you now. He will teach this guy a good lesson!"

At that moment, Jiang Lintian slowly stood up and looked at Lu Yu mockingly.

"Hehe, now you've tasted the bitterness of your situation, right? I'm telling you, you're dead. You aren't his match!"

"Today, you came to my door, insulting and looking down on me. This is what you get!"

Jiang Lintian spat viciously as if he were the one who defeated Lu Yu.

Duan Ying looked at Jiang Lintian and scolded, "You piece of shit, how dare you threaten me to make a move. When I kill Lu Yu, I will not spare you either!"

Jiang Lintian immediately became timid and quickly explained, "Brother, I don't mean any harm. It's such a good opportunity. You would have killed him anyway if I didn't shout."

Duan Ying angrily snorted. "I'll deal with you later!"

When he turned around to look at Lu Yu, he was shocked to see that Lu Yu had already gotten out from under his spear and had one hand on his spear.

Seeing this, he immediately panicked and tried to pull back his spear!

However, when he pulled hard, it was as if the spear was welded into Lu Yu's hand and couldn't be removed!

He frowned slightly and tried again, but he still couldn't pull it out!

At that moment, he suddenly realized Lu Yu's terrifying power was way above him!

This was a force as powerful as it could be.

Lu Yu looked at him and smiled. "Weren't you confident just now? Why, cat got your tongue?"

Duan Ying sneered disdainfully. "Hmph, you're too naive. Do you really think that I've never fought with a stronger enemy before?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the spear that Lu Yu was holding tightly suddenly turned into a wisp of smoke and slowly floated back into Duan Ying's hand.

Lu Yu's right hand grasped the air and grabbed onto nothing but air. He looked at Duan Ying with a smile. "It seems that you have quite some combat experience. This is interesting. It was boring to fight with that trash."

Lu Yu was referring to Jiang Lintian; naturally, Jiang Lintian wasn't happy. He shouted, "The more arrogant you are now, the more miserable you will be later!"

Duan Ying retreated continuously, widening the distance between him and Lu Yu.

He looked at Lu Yu cautiously. The powerful grip had left a deep impression on him, and he was cautious not to attack rashly, or else he would have to bear that terrifying power.

At that moment, Lu Yu took the lead and rushed toward Duan Ying.

Duan Ying didn't retreat, and the two men rushed toward each other.

Just as the two were about to clash, Duan Ying suddenly picked up his long spear and stabbed it toward Lu Yu.

At this distance, even if he extended his spear completely, it would be impossible for him to touch a single hair on Lu Yu's body.

However, Lu Yu's previous battle experience told him that those who dared to attack when the distance wasn't enough were either newbies who couldn't gauge their distances correctly, or someone confident in dealing damage somehow, such as a swordsman using a sword aura or shock waves.

Obviously, Duan Ying wasn't the former. The moment he thrust his spear, a sharp energy fluctuation condensed on the tip of his spear.

This dark energy contained a large amount of power, causing the surrounding space to distort!

"Eat a wave of my dark matter and enjoy the feeling of your body being crushed!" Duan Ying let out a loud laugh.

Through his words, Lu Yu understood the effect of this skill. It relied on the unstable fluctuations of dark matter to shatter the surrounding space, achieving the outcome of destruction.

This destructive attack was terrifying, and no one would dare to face such an attack.

If anyone were to encounter such a destruction spell, their first thought would be to run!

However, Lu Yu stood still as this wave came at him quickly. He had no time to dodge, and even if he could, he would be grazed by the attack. There was no way he could completely avoid it!

Fortunately, he had his Light Dragon Claws, and the power of the light elements could dispel this attack.

Lu Yu gritted his teeth, opened his right claw, and grabbed the wave coming at him!

When Duan Ying saw Lu Yu's dragon claw, he, who had been pretentious, suddenly became nervous.

Only then did he realize that Lu Yu's glowing claws were definitely the power of the light elements! This way, his attack would be quickly dealt with!

As expected, Lu Yu's right claw wrapped around the wave of dark matter, enveloping it in his palm.

Although the darkness was constantly fluctuating, it could not cause any damage to Lu Yu's palm.

Gradually, this force shrank rapidly until it finally disappeared.

Seeing this, Duan Ying panicked. The attack he was so proud of had no effect at all.

This forced him to take Lu Yu seriously.

He sized Lu Yu up again and said fiercely, "It seems I've underestimated your strength. However, your strength at its peak is only a gold rank 10. You're definitely not my match!"

When Duan Ying said that Lu Yu's strength was at gold rank 10, he wasn't praising Lu Yu. After all, it was a massive leap from gold rank 10 to platinum rank 1.

A platinum rank 1 was at least twice as strong as a gold rank 10!

Every time someone advanced into a major tier, the improvement in their strength was huge.

Therefore, a gold rank 10 was the highest rating he could give Lu Yu.

If Lu Yu were one level higher, then the two would be equal in strength.

Duan Ying didn't want to believe Lu Yu really had the strength of a platinum rank. If that were true, his battle would be much more difficult.

He was only a platinum rank 1. It would be a tie if two platinum-ranked fighters fought.

Even if he were lucky enough to gain the upper hand, Lu Yu would still have ways to escape.

"I'm a gold rank 10? Your estimation is quite the joke. Since you don't want to face reality, I'll show it to you."

The next moment, Lu Yu rushed forward with a fierce aura. His claws emitted a dazzling light, enveloping his entire body in it.

Duan Ying could feel that the light elements were quickly approaching, which was a dangerous signal for him.

He quickly raised his spear with both hands and stabbed it at Lu Yu!

Lu Yu quickly jumped up and stepped on the spear's tip with the tip of his foot. He raised his claws and pounced toward Duan Ying.
