  • by Grace Thomas ...… The next day, the hype of the third stage of the Shadow Ranking Cup was all time high; especially with the highlighted matches that were going to get covered by some entertainment company. And as everyone was waiting for the battles to start, the broadcasting of all of the upcoming battles was already starting. And as the number one entertainment company of the gaming world, True Sight Industries would surely be a first choice of all of the viewers. But the moment they saw which battle they were…
  • by Grace Thomas ...… The second stage of the Shadow Ranking Cup finally reached its end. And just like what everyone had expected, most of the participants that advanced to this round were the crowd favorites. There were also some dark horses that appeared here and there; though, there were not that good in the eyes of these 'bias' spectators. Since the third stage of the tournament was a double elimination bracket, this stage was going to be quite a long one. Given this, the System Draws for the next matchups were…
  • by Grace Thomas ...… The next day (In-game time), the Shadow Ranking Cup resumed its second stage. And since the stage was already in the semi-finals round, all of the players wanted to watch their respective bets and favorites didn't have much trouble at choosing the matchups that they wanted to spectate. At the same time, the tickets of the famous contestants were already been sold out just like yesterday. But as usual, Shin's fight was still underrated. Even if he had those flashy opponent-execution from his…
  • by Grace Thomas ...… After a few more exchanges, Shin was now being suppressed by Faker too greatly. Every time he found a good chance to take advantage of, later would always be one step ahead of him. And even if he could catch his opponent with some strange setup that he made, Faker would always find a way to turn the tides. With this, Shin found himself in the backfoot. But despite that being that case, he still stubbornly held his ground and persevered to continue exchanging blows with Faker since he knew that the…
  • by Grace Thomas Now that Shin had experienced Faker's real speed firsthand, he needed to do some adjustments in battle. And since everyone present inside this training room were people that could be trusted, Shin didn't plan to hide much from them. So, he was planning to go all-out and use most of the skills and Combat Technique from arsenal. This time, he was planning to use the newly improved 'Eclipse Wielding' Combat Technique instead of using his sword-drawing style. But he was also planning to find a chance to throw…
  • by Grace Thomas ...… The moment Faker released his Aura Manifestation, Shin suddenly felt an overwhelming threat that was coming from all directions. It was as if death was coming after him and getting near at him bit by bit. He could tell that Faker was taking this fight seriously. Given this, he also needed to give his all out of respect. So, he took a deep breath and muttered to himself. "So, Brother Faker is really an Ethereal Opening Stage expert. Looks like I have to use all of my reserves this time,…
  • by Grace Thomas ... "Continue using two sets of battle styles that will give him a fatal flaw, or abandon such an idea and choose the better style that can make him strong." After being asked such an expected question, Shin was still not sure how he was going to respond. Even if that was an indirect message, he could tell that Faker was expecting something from him. And even if he was confused at why Faker was doing this, he could at least see that the latter didn't mean any harm. Seeing that Shin was still unable to…
  • by Grace Thomas ...… "Good skills are sometimes useless when they are not being used right," said Faker while preventing Shin from drawing his sword with his right hand. And right after that, he quickly swung his other hand, which was holding a dagger. Fortunately, Shin managed to recover himself in time and immediately hopped backwards, dodging the sudden strike while also trying to put some distance between him and Faker. But even if he successfully dodged that attack, he was still put in a tight spot because Faker…
  • by Grace Thomas ...… Cling! Clang! Bang! Bang! The battle between Arthur and Leonard continued for a few more exchanges before they threw a powerful strike that separated them from each other. And when they landed on the ground, they were sent sliding backwards as they lowered their center of gravity so that they could relieve some force from that last exchange. The moment they stopped themselves from sliding, they immediately raised their heads to look at their opponents but didn't resume at attacking each…
  • by Grace Thomas ...… The battle between the two gods was continuing for quite some time already. And since the two of them persisted on going with either of them refusing to back down, the battle seemed to be a never ending one. And even if this battle lasted for quite some time already, these two gods still didn't show any sign of being tired. In fact, it was their spectators who were getting tired of watching them. It was not because the fight was becoming boring; actually, it was becoming more amazing and…
