"The Divine Spirit Magic Armor is not an ordinary Demon Armor; it uses the Super Spirit Demon Core and Super Spirit Gemstone as its energy source. It’s one of the few Armors capable of contending with the Super Spirit Tester. Your ability to wield it truly lives up to the na of Commander. Among all the Magic Armor Masters in the city, it seems you alone can manage this set of Divine Spirit Magic Armor," Su Bancheng continued.
As soon as these words were spoken, many people showed expressions of surprise, not expecting the Demon Armor on Li Xiu to be so powerful.
Li Xiu frowned slightly. This Su Bancheng did seem to be praising him.
But given his understanding of the Divine Spirit Magic Armor, he couldn’t possibly be unaware of its drawbacks.
Su Bancheng spoke only of the might of the Divine Spirit Magic Armor, never once ntioning its flaws and issues.
Li Xiu had seen many like him; Su Bancheng was indeed exalting him, but not because he genuinely thought he was strong. Rather, he intended to use Li Xiu as a stepping stone.
Defeating an insignificant opponent counts for nothing, yet defeating a renowned adversary is different altogether.
By placing Li Xiu at the top of Magic Armor Masters, his victory over Li Xiu would an defeating the strongest Magic Armor Master, presenting a vastly different impression.
"Are you wanting to challenge , or are you interested in studying Magic Armor? If you wish to study Magic Armor, you may take the assessnt of my Technician Group. Should you pass, I’ll grant you mbership, where you may learn freely," Li Xiu said calmly.
Su Bancheng responded with a smile, "Commander Li, thank you for your kind offer, but there’s no need to trouble yourself. Once I beco the Commander, I’ll naturally study Magic Armor."
"In that case, let’s not waste words," Li Xiu showed no interest in prolonging the conversation with Su Bancheng.
However, Su Bancheng didn’t seem ready to act imdiately; instead, he said with a smile, "Commander Li, there’s no rush. I’m only here to compete for the position of Commander. There’s no enmity between us, so there’s no need for a fight to the death. How about we battle in a different manner?"
"What manner?" Li Xiu asked as he began to smile.
He had seen these tricks many tis before; those Magic Armor Masters who challenged him had used such ploys often.
Su Bancheng wanting to change the battle thod surely wasn’t out of a desire to avoid causing harm; he rely wished to make Li Xiu’s defeat more humiliating.
Many Magic Armor Masters intended to ascend by stepping on the likes of himself; tricks like this were hardly new.
Indeed, Su Bancheng stood with hands behind his back, displaying an air of disdain for the world, though he wasn’t taller than Li Xiu. He spoke with condescension, "I will stand here and receive ten blows from you. If you can injure , you win this fight; you’ll continue as the Commander of the Technician Group. If, after ten blows, you fail to harm , I won’t bear to injure you. Instead, I’ll ask you to willingly yield your position as Commander."
Hearing this, many were impressed by Su Bancheng’s audacity.
Voluntarily taking ten hits displayed imnse confidence and boldness.
Su Bancheng intended to show everyone that he could easily defeat Li Xiu but desired rely to claim the position of Commander without causing harm.
"Li Xiu is likely to be deceived," remarked Wan Chaoxin with a frown.
"Deceived how?" Wan Chaojue asked, puzzled.
"That Su Bancheng possesses a Parasitic Contract known as Karma Armor, bluntly put, it’s an Inner Armor capable of reflecting damage. He volunteered before to guard the Gate of Extre Evil, likely to super-spirit the Karma Armor. Now that he’s back, I reckon the Karma Armor has indeed achieved Super Spirit status."
After a glance at Su Bancheng, Wan Chaoxin continued, "He deliberately suggested such a strategy to provoke Li Xiu. Standing still to receive ten hits is a sheer insult. Any man with a bit of spirit would unlikely wait for all ten hits, probably giving his all on the first blow, determined to down Su Bancheng imdiately so that he loses face."
Wan Chaojue suddenly understood, "But because of Su Bancheng’s Karma Armor, the stronger Li Xiu’s strike, the more significant the damage reflected back. That first strike might cause Li Xiu substantial harm, or even kill him outright, through his strength. Su Bancheng is indeed cunning and ruthless."
"Isn’t such a Parasitic Contract essentially rendering Su Bancheng invincible? Others may hurt him, but he remains unscathed," Wan Chaohua questioned, frowning.
"Not invincible. If it were , I would have a way to break his Karma Armor," replied Wan Chaoxin nonchalantly.
"How would you break it?" Wan Chaojue asked curiously.
"Must you ask everything instead of thinking on your own? If you always need to ask before confronting enemies in the future, will you even be able to fight?" Wan Chaoxin gave him a stern look.
Wan Chaojue scratched his head sheepishly, "I honestly can’t think of it. You know I’m not great at thinking."
Wan Chaoxin replied helplessly, "Can’t you think why Su Bancheng would try to humiliate and provoke Li Xiu so hard?"
After a mont, Wan Chaojue slapped his leg with realization, "Is it that the Karma Armor can only be used once, so he wants to provoke Li Xiu to unleash his full power in the first strike?"
"While not entirely accurate, your reasoning isn’t wrong," nodded Wan Chaoxin, "Karma Armor isn’t limited to a single use. However, the skill cannot be continuously used without interruption. If the first strike is used to trigger the Karma Armor’s skill, then a quick second strike to break through it would make breaking the Karma Armor as easy as pie."
