309: Chapter 303 Three-on-One Attack
The silence lasted for only a brief moment.
The strength Song Yang displayed after eliminating that black-robed assassin made the remaining people feel a strong sense of threat.
Everyone present was a battle-hardened contestant. They knew very well that in a melee like this, the one to be eliminated was often not the weakest, but the one who stood out the most and posed the greatest threat.
Without a doubt, Song Yang was that most prominent thorn right now.
In the crowd, the Strong Man with Battle Axe who had launched the first attack, the Bewitching woman wielding an energy whip beside him, and a Thin Man holding a short blade, exchanged glances almost simultaneously.
There were no words, but their murderous intent was already shared.
Join forces first and eliminate this biggest variable!
This thought arose in all three of their minds at the same time.
Although the remaining four did not explicitly state their position, they each took a half-step back, adopting a stance of watching from the sidelines.
They were happy to see someone else test Song Yang's depth first.
"Kill!"
The Strong Man with Battle Axe let out a roar, breaking the stalemate.
The rock platform beneath his feet instantly cracked, and he transformed into a cannonball, rushing towards Song Yang with overwhelming momentum.
The energy light on the battle axe in his hand surged; clearly, he was using his full strength.
At the same time, the energy whip of the Bewitching woman was lashed out, carving a tricky arc in the air like a viper striking from its nest, curling toward Song Yang's ankles with the intent of restricting his movement.
The three coordinated tacitly, launching a lethal trap right from the start.
A frontal assault, a flanking harassment, and rear containment instantly sealed off all of Song Yang's escape routes.
In front of the viewing screen, Liu Dahai's heart rose to his throat once again, his fists clenched tightly.
"Shameless! Too shameless! Three against one!"
In the bar, Thunderstorm's brow furrowed into a knot, but he did not speak, simply downing a large gulp of alcohol while his eyes remained fixed on the screen.
He wanted to see how Song Yang would break the situation.
On the battlefield, facing the thunderous combined attack of the three, Song Yang was exceptionally calm.
A head-on clash? That was for brutes.
He never fought battles he wasn't sure of winning.
Just as the battle axe was about to descend and the whip was about to coil around his ankles, Song Yang moved.
He did not choose to break out in any direction; instead, he performed an action that no one expected.
He exerted force with his feet, and instead of retreating, he advanced, meeting the Strong Man with Battle Axe rushing from the front.
"Seeking death!"
A savage grin appeared on the face of the Strong Man with Battle Axe.
In his view, Song Yang's move was no different from a moth flying into a flame.
However, just as the two were about to collide, Song Yang's figure suddenly split into two, then into four.
Phantom Tracing Steps activated once again!
Four identical figures scattered in four different directions.
The attack of the Strong Man with Battle Axe missed, and his powerful axe slammed directly into the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.
The energy whip also only curled around an Afterimage, and the phantom flickered slightly before dissipating without a trace.
"Oh no! It's an illusion!" the Bewitching woman exclaimed.
But by the time they realized it, Song Yang's true body had already appeared thousands away, his figure transforming into a streak of light as he sped towards the ruined city outside the platform.
He chose to avoid the sharp edge for now!
"Want to run? Not that easy!"
The Strong Man with Battle Axe roared and immediately gave chase.
The Bewitching woman and the Thin Man followed closely behind.
They had already regarded Song Yang as their number one enemy; they wouldn't be able to eat or sleep in peace until he was eliminated.
The other four contestants exchanged glances, and after a brief hesitation, they also followed.
Although they hadn't directly participated in the siege, they didn't want this massive threat, Song Yang, to leave their sight.
In an instant, the entire battlefield expanded from a small platform to the entire vast ruined city.
Song Yang's speed was extremely fast, weaving through the broken walls and ruins as if walking on flat ground.
The three behind him were also top experts, and their speed was not slow either, as they bit tightly onto his trail.
"Boom!"
A thick beam of energy shot from behind, grazing Song Yang's body and blasting a dilapidated building in front of him into smithereens.
That was the long-range attack of the Strong Man with Battle Axe.
Song Yang didn't even look back, twisting his figure and rushing into another teetering skyscraper.
Inside the building, steel bars were exposed and the structure was complex, which was perfect for limiting the opponents' pursuit.
"Split up and pursue! Don't let him get away!"
The voice of the Bewitching woman rang out from behind.
The three immediately split into three directions, forming a siege on the building.
Song Yang sped through the interior of the building, his mind highly focused, sensing everything around him.
He could clearly feel three powerful auras rapidly approaching from different directions.
He was not flustered; instead, he utilized the complex terrain to constantly shift his position, attempting to shake off the pursuit.
"Bang!"
He kicked open a rusty iron door and rushed into a spacious office hall.
The hall was covered in dust, and rotting office desks and chairs were scattered about.
The moment he rushed into the hall, a whip shadow dropped from the ceiling without warning, striking directly at his face.
It was the Bewitching woman!
She had actually predicted Song Yang's route and set an ambush here in advance.
Song Yang reacted extremely quickly, his body leaning backward at an incredible angle, the long whip sweeping past almost brushing his nose tip.
The fierce wind stung his cheeks.
Dodging the attack, Song Yang exerted force from his waist, twisting his body in mid-air, and thrust the spear in his hand upward.
The Bewitching woman let out a muffled groan and, using the recoil force, drifted backward, putting distance between herself and Song Yang.
"Your reaction is not slow." She licked her lips.
Song Yang did not answer, simply gripping the spear in his hand tighter.
Just then, the two walls behind him were simultaneously smashed open violently.
The Strong Man with Battle Axe and the Thin Man blocked his path of retreat from the left and right.
A three-sided siege; the desperate situation appeared once again.
"Kid, let's see where you can run this time!" The Strong Man with Battle Axe grinned, approaching step by step.
The atmosphere outside the arena was tense to the extreme.
Liu Dahai was pacing in place, anxious, muttering continuously:
"It's over, it's over, he's trapped now."
Song Yang took a glance at the ceiling.
Because of the impact of the battle just now, the structure of this skyscraper was already very unstable.
Song Yang violently plunged the spear in his hand into the floor beneath his feet.
Causing it to pierce through the building's load-bearing structure.
"What is he doing?" the Bewitching woman shouted out in shock.
"Oh no! He wants to destroy this building! Retreat quickly!"
The Thin Man was the first to react, his expression changing drastically, and without thinking, he rushed toward the hole he had come from.
The Strong Man with Battle Axe and the Bewitching woman also instantly understood Song Yang's intent and hurriedly retreated.
However, it was already too late.
"Rumble—"
The entire skyscraper let out an unbearable groan.
Centered on Song Yang's spear, huge cracks spread in all directions like a spider web.
The floor, walls, and ceiling collapsed at the same time.
Huge chunks of reinforced concrete fell like raindrops, and the entire building, hundreds of meters high, turned into a pile of ruins in just a few seconds.
Huge dust clouds rose into the sky, obscuring everyone's vision.
The image in front of the viewing screen also turned into a grey, hazy scene.
Dust filled the air, lingering for a long time.
After a good while, there was movement in the ruins.
"Cough, cough..."
The Strong Man with Battle Axe crawled out from a pile of rubble, covered in dust; he had several scratches on his body and looked somewhat disheveled.
On the other side, the Bewitching woman also pushed away the concrete slab pressing on her, her face somewhat pale.
They were both top experts; a collapse of this magnitude was not enough to cost them their lives.
"Where is that bastard?"
The Strong Man with Battle Axe looked around, searching for Song Yang's figure through gritted teeth.
In the ruins, there was dead silence; Song Yang's shadow could not be seen at all.
"Could he have been buried underneath?" the Bewitching woman asked, sounding uncertain.
Just then, the Thin Man's pupils suddenly constricted.
He felt a murderous aura coming from behind him.
Without a second thought, he prepared to lunge forward.
But someone emerged from the dust behind him, the spear in his hand, carrying the sharpness to pierce through everything, aiming directly at his heart.
