Chapter 516: Joined Finger

A soundless gust of wind instantly arrived in front of Happy’s face.
But he had already moved to the side to avoid the attack at the moment Young Fallen Rain pushed her fingers together and tapped repeatedly at the air.
Bang! Bang!
The wall sixty-five feet behind Happy let out loud bangs in succession! When he turned his head around, he saw that the sturdy wall looked as if it had been shot through by bullets. It had two holes that were a few inches deep.
The players who were watching by the side were dumbfounded. The few people who had originally stood in front of the wall turned pale. If two elders had not arrived on time just then and forced them back with palm-generated wind to avoid the finger-generated wind, the wall would not have been the only one spotting holes at that moment.
When the group looked toward Young Fallen Rain again, their expressions were incredibly strange and filled with shock and fear.
No one expected that Young Fallen Rain, who was often tasked to take care of rabbits in the backyard, would actually be a powerful martial artist who kept the fact that she had an ultimate technique with her hidden!
Happy’s expression also changed. He sucked in a deep breath before he looked toward Young Fallen Rain, who had a smug look on her face, as well as the Murong Clan Lady behind her.
Joined Finger!
He did not expect that this girl would actually be lucky enough to be able to learn this ultimate technique from the Murong Clan.
The profundity of Joined Finger even surpassed that of Throw Spirit Sphere. It could touch a person through the air quietly, and its speed was astonishing. It could injure a person from a distance, while it could kill from close up.
Its damage was so great that its finger technique could even compare to Six Pulses Divine Sword, which belonged to Duan Clan of Dali. The Murong Clan had also used the profundity within Joined Finger to seize the throne!
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Joined Finger was an existence equal to Shifting Stars among the ultimate techniques from Murong Clan.
How did the girl get it?
Happy was speechless. ‘I thought that this girl was so stupid that she didn’t even know how to feed rabbits, so I didn’t expect that such a monstrous power would be hidden in her petite body.’
“Hmph! Take this!”
When Young Fallen Rain saw that her finger technique had attracted everyone’s attention, she became very excited. She pushed her fingers together and poked at the air brazenly and in a flashy manner. She breathed and circulated her qi, and soon, faint ripples formed in the air that were incredibly abstruse. Then, they vanished.
All of that might have seemed to have happened over a long period of time, but it was actually over very quickly.
Only an instant had passed since she attacked to the moment the ripples disappeared.
However, to Happy, it seemed as if a century had passed. He could clearly capture the entire process in his mind, so he only turned his body slightly to the side before Golden Bell Cocoon rose around him.
Clang!
A huge force crashed into the side of Golden Bell Cocoon. Its light shone brilliantly, and a layer of fierce ripples quickly spread out over it. It looked as if it was about to scatter and fall apart.
To outsiders, Happy seemed to not have avoided Young Fallen Rain’s attack in time, and his body fortification showed signs that it was about to crumble.
“That girl is great! Happy’s body fortification doesn’t seem to be able to sustain a lot more hits.”
The expressions of people who watched the fight turned cold.
Only Young Fallen Rain herself understood that the attack just then was actually even easier to avoid compared to the previous attack. Happy wanted to test the damage of her finger technique, which was why he used the side of the golden bell to withstand it.
As expected, the Buddhist’s Golden Bell Cocoon was so sturdy that it was impenetrable. With her current Joined Finger, she would need at least three finger strikes before she could completely destroy it.
‘Three fingers... If I activate the profound skill of Golden Bell Cocoon, it won’t be difficult for me to withstand five finger strikes.’
Once Happy observed the situation with his Golden Bell Cocoon, he instantly became at ease. ‘Young Fallen Rain must not have practiced Joined Finger for a long time. Its strength is clearly not comparable to that of Momo’s Throw Spirit Sphere. But its attack speed and element of surprise are better. Given time, she will definitely become someone outstanding.
‘She will be one of those who will head to Hero’s Mountain Villa.’
While Happy thought of that, Young Fallen Rain attacked once more with indignation. She tapped a few times, and when her attacks amounted to nothing, she rushed closer in hopes of using close-quarters combat to increase the strength of her Joined Finger and break Happy’s body fortification.
That was naturally impossible.
Once she closed in, Happy did not give Young Fallen Rain any chance to attack. With Dragon Capture, he easily seized her hand, and with one palm strike, he pushed her dozens of feet back.
“I lost.” Young Fallen Rain pulled a long face.
Attacking repeatedly wasted a lot of her qi. Once she was pushed back, she readily gave up and went down the stage. She was followed by the eyes filled with shock and curiosity of countless Murong Clan disciples.
Quite a number of people went up to her and asked her about the finger technique just then. Young Fallen Rain stated that she had only received the Murong Clan Lady’s teachings a month ago, and her skill was not great. Her technique had not reached the eighth realm.
‘I wonder what are the requirements to practice Joined Finger, but it should not be as harsh as those of Shifting Stars.’ Happy stared at Young Fallen Rain’s figure in the crowd and sighed in his heart. ‘As expected, surprising things will always appear in the game.’
There were two Murong Clan disciples who braced themselves and attacked Happy during the subsequent fights, and they even came up one after another, but unfortunately, once Happy received a few of their attacks, he lost interest in giving them guidance, and he forced them back with a single move.
Once a few people were defeated with just one move, the Murong Clan disciples who originally wanted to spar against Happy gave up on challenging him again. When they stepped on the stage, they immediately gave up.
Happy enjoyed the quiet while he watched Eleventh Crane’s battles!
Once Eleventh Crane got on the stage, he dominated it and never left. He moved like the wind, and his arrows were as quick as lightning.
Eleventh Crane was no longer using the Three Bow Fusion he used while escorting the tribute. He seemed to have learned a very brilliant bow technique that allowed him to move fast. His breathing technique was also great.
While he breathed, he adjusted his pace, controlled the rhythm of his movements, and also the frequency of his attacks. He changed to another position with every three moves, and with every three moves, he attacked!
There was also a lot of variety to Eleventh Crane’s attacks. Sometimes, he would combine two arrows together and attack his enemies by having his arrows flank them, which would surround the enemy with trouble.
At other times, he would fire multiple arrows at them from the air. While next time, he would pierce their hearts with one arrow, or have chain arrows chase after them.
Aside from having to use a rather unique arrow that served as a hidden weapon while he fought against Whirlwind Young Li to cover him in wounds and force him to back down, he could easily toy with his enemies in every fight he was involved in.
Young Fallen Rain did not go up against Eleventh Crane. She appeared on another stage.
She held a sword with her left hand, while two fingers were pressed together on her right. She looked just like the typical martial artist in movies, and she practically did not move before forcing many of her senior brothers and senior sisters thirty-two feet away from her.
Her opponents did not even have the chance to get close to her before she forced them to the ground. The elder announced her opponents’ defeats one by one, and they left the stage.
Gradually, the Murong Clan disciples who were left with the right to continue fighting in the martial arts hall decreased in number!
When their number was reduced to only one hundred, the most intense challenges finally began.
And as expected, Happy was still ignored. No one bothered to challenge him.
Eleventh Crane and Young Fallen Rain were also seldom bothered by others.
The intense fights were gathered on the other stages. Everyone fought against each other for the remaining seven places.
Happy noticed that there were two among the seven victors who were rather good. One of them practiced a fast-paced sword technique, which in Life and Death Realm. The man’s equipment was pretty good as well. The man was both fast and fierce.
The other person dual wielded a pair of swords, one of which was longer than the other. When he fought, he moved about with ease. He was a very good player who was skilled in exchanging blows with his opponents.
If his opponent was strong, he would retreat, and when his opponent was weak, he would attack. When he had a chance, he would without any hesitation. His attacks were incredibly fierce, and Happy’s eyes lit up upon examining him.
What caused Happy to feel extremely happy was that the two were also Mu Clan members.
