24: Showdown! Mu Qianshan's strength!
Blue light flickered, and then a long spear appeared in Jiang Yuan's hand.
Jiang Yuan raised his hand, and the Fire Tipped Spear in his hand flew towards Nezha.
Nezha, with an excited expression, leaped up and caught the Fire Tipped Spear, twirling it in his hand to form a spear flower.
"Is this?"
Mu Qianshan asked with some curiosity, "Can Card Spirits from Summoning Cards also equip weapons?"
"Of course, they can! Besides their identity as Card Spirits, there's no difference between them and us."
"I see."
As Mu Qianshan spoke, his gaze fell upon the Fire Tipped Spear, revealing a curious expression.
The spear in Nezha's hand looked no less impressive than the Cangmang in his own hand.
Its fiery red tip, the flame-like flickering spear tassel, and the golden flame patterns on the shaft.
It perfectly struck the core of his aesthetic appreciation.
However, what made Mu Qianshan somewhat curious was why the butt of the spear also had a tip.
"The Purple Flame Serpent Spear, a blue-quality Weapon Card, with three skills: Illusion, Purple Flame, and Autumn Frost."
Jiang Yuan seemed to notice Mu Qianshan's curiosity and took the initiative to explain.
However, when he mentioned the skills, Jiang Yuan tilted his head slightly.
It seemed these three skills were quite similar to the three skills of the Cangmang.
Jiang Yuan smiled faintly: "Illusion can split the Fire Tipped Spear into two; Purple Flame inflicts fire damage during attacks; Autumn Frost increases sharpness. Yes, it's quite similar to your Cangmang."
As Jiang Yuan spoke, Mu Qianshan's face showed a smug smile: "See? The card I bought is also excellent."
"However, Purple Flame can actively spray flames from the spearhead, and Autumn Frost not only increases sharpness but can also release cold mist and flash."
Nezha was also very cooperative; as Jiang Yuan introduced, he demonstrated by releasing flames, cold mist, and flash from the Fire Tipped Spear, as if to prove Jiang Yuan's words.
Jiang Yuan's face showed a mischievous smile as he looked up at Mu Qianshan.
Mu Qianshan felt a bit awkward under his gaze, pointing his long sword: "More talk is useless. I see Nezha is also at the same realm as me. Let's see how the basic attributes of our respective weapons compare!"
As Mu Qianshan spoke, he directly held his long sword and looked at Nezha.
Weapons have basic attributes, and while they aren't displayed numerically, they certainly exist.
However, most people don't pay much attention to these basic attributes.
Because only when levels, equipment, combat power, weapon techniques, and even luck are all quite similar, can a weapon determine victory or defeat.
But the problem is, even if it's like that, why not improve other, more visibly apparent aspects?
A weapon's basic attributes have no numerical display; only when both sides are similar in all aspects, and weapons collide, can one get a general sense of it.
"Then let's go!"
Nezha's fighting spirit also surged, and he brandished his long spear, charging towards Mu Qianshan.
"It's still a bit unusual without the Wind Fire Wheels!"
Nezha's voice reached both their ears. While Jiang Yuan found it somewhat amusing, Mu Qianshan was curious about what kind of equipment the Wind Fire Wheels were.
The Fire Tipped Spear thrust straight forward. Mu Qianshan didn't have time to think, instantly twisting his head to dodge the direct thrust.
But Nezha's attacks clearly didn't stop there. He wielded the Fire Tipped Spear with fierce power, sweeping, thrusting, striking downwards, and more, with each move.
The flames on the spear tassel burned even more brilliantly, making Mu Qianshan's face look somewhat grim.
He continuously parried with the Cangmang in his hand. Although he had the Skill Card [Strong Wind Sword Art] for enhancement, Nezha's spear technique felt even more powerful.
At the very least, he found it somewhat difficult to parry.
The spear tip thrust forward again, and a sharp glint flashed in Mu Qianshan's eyes.
It was his chest!
Just as he was about to block with his sword, the spear tassel suddenly flickered, making Mu Qianshan's eyes blur.
The next second, the spear tip headed towards his throat.
Mu Qianshan was greatly alarmed and quickly dodged.
However, Nezha's spear was too fast. Although he managed to dodge a bit, preventing the Fire Tipped Spear from piercing his throat, his left shoulder was still impaled.
Nezha raised an eyebrow, instinctively flicking the Fire Tipped Spear upwards.
A large piece of flesh flew into the air, then quickly charred on one side due to the flames.
Mu Qianshan cried out in pain, but his long sword also thrust towards Nezha without hesitation, as if he hadn't just been injured.
Jiang Yuan couldn't help but sigh at the sight.
Rich young masters truly differed from commoners like them.
He himself could only enter this kind of space, where injury and death had no real impact, during Combat Class.
But for someone like Mu Qianshan, once he determined his future path from a young age, he began training in such spaces.
Although he lacked Star Power and couldn't use equipment cards, he still had opponents and weapons to cultivate his combat awareness.
If Mu Qianshan were replaced by Jiang Yuan at this moment, he would probably be in too much pain to continue fighting.
However, while Mu Qianshan had rich combat experience, Nezha was no slouch either.
When facing an opponent with a long spear, a long weapon has an advantage, so naturally, Mu Qianshan couldn't be allowed to get close easily.
With a twist of the Fire Tipped Spear in his hand, as the spear tassel spun and danced, cold mist was released, causing Mu Qianshan's body to stiffen involuntarily.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Nezha directly smacked the attempting-to-get-close Mu Qianshan flying.
Nezha chuckled mischievously twice, holding the Fire Tipped Spear and looking at Mu Qianshan, who had stumbled back many steps before finally falling to the ground.
Mu Qianshan struggled to get up, clutching his left shoulder, a pained expression on his face.
"Your Card Spirit's strength is indeed very strong!"
"Of course, Little Lord's strength goes without saying!"
Before Jiang Yuan could speak, Nezha proudly tilted his head and said to Mu Qianshan.
"Indeed, not bad."
Mu Qianshan smiled, then another white card appeared in his hand.
[Speed Boost!]
"Too little Star Power," Mu Qianshan said, shaking his head helplessly. "So many cards I can't use."
He could only use this card because he had just recovered a little Star Power.
Otherwise, he would have used it at the very beginning of the battle.
Mu Qianshan still had healing cards in his hand, but in the end, he chose to increase his speed.
Even if the injury was healed, he would still be injured facing Nezha.
But with increased speed, he might not get injured and might even injure Nezha.
Mu Qianshan got up again, holding the three-foot Cangmang, and charged towards Nezha once more.
Nezha's pupils contracted, and he quickly gripped the Fire Tipped Spear with both hands, holding it horizontally in front of him.
"Clang!"
The crisp sound of metal clashing rang out, followed by a series of clangs as the Cangmang continuously struck the Fire Tipped Spear.
Mu Qianshan's strength was not much weaker than Nezha's; after all, everyone's strength was quite similar.
At most, there was a difference in their techniques.
But in martial arts, speed is king. With Mu Qianshan's speed boosted, in close quarters, Nezha, wielding a long weapon, inevitably fell into a disadvantage.
"Nezha, Three Heads Six Arms!"
