Fantasy Westward Journey: My Big Anchor System

The viewers in the live stream were buzzing with discussion. No one had expected that the baby Feng Jun summoned in the previous round would actually be a child with the Heart-Stopping Sword skill.

It's worth noting that the Heart-Stopping Sword is arguably the weakest active physical damage skill so far. Currently, apart from the Listening Beast, no other summoned beast would use such a skill.

There's no way around it, the "Heart-Stopping Sword" was just too awful, so awful that it was unbearable to watch.

In fact, the Heart-Stopping Sword once had a glorious period. When the Ghost General summon was first introduced, the appearance of the Heart-Stopping Sword delighted many people, especially when paired with a high-level ultimate skill, it could deal very high damage and also consume the enemy's mana.

Back then, almost every player would have a Ghost General with a critical strike skill, using the Heart-Stopping Sword to deal high damage.

Unfortunately, Aunt Wang's planners quickly nerfed Heart-Stopping Sword. The first nerf to Heart-Stopping Sword was to reduce the damage of its skill result by 20% and increase the mana loss to enemies by 25%.

This nerf has rendered countless Ghost Generals with the Heart-Stopping Sword skill despised, as they have indeed been rendered useless.

Later, the developers weakened the skill again, making the Ghost General increasingly useless, to the point of being relegated to the sidelines.

After being nerfed twice, the skill "Heart-Stopping Sword" has been despised by many players and has even been completely relegated to being a filler skill.

But now Feng Jun has actually summoned a child with the skill "Heart-Stopping Sword" and is using this skill to deal damage, which is somewhat beyond people's imagination.

After all, in many people's minds, it is highly unlikely that a top player like Feng Jun would use such a weak skill.

"A Heart-Stopping Sword? This skill is practically useless now. The only creature we see using Heart-Stopping Sword these days is the Di Ting. It's highly unlikely that any other summoned beast would possess such a skill!"

"After all, the damage coefficient of this skill is too weak. It has been targeted by the developers time and time again, and this skill is no longer useful," the commentator Lao Xu said repeatedly.

"It's true that it's not very useful, but we can't completely deny the value of the skill 'Heart-Stopping Strike'. Although the damage of 'Heart-Stopping Strike' has been weakened, its ability to reduce mana has indeed been strengthened."

Many people consider Heart-Stopping Strike to be a damage-dealing skill, but that's not the case. Heart-Stopping Strike's true purpose is to reduce mana.

It's important to know that the mana cost formula for the Heart-Stopping Strike is fixed: it's the damage to health dealt / 10, plus the user's level / 2, and the sum of the two is * 1.25.

你们看刚刚这只童子给鱼总的神木林造成了306点的伤害，这也就是说总共损失的蓝量为30.6+90的和*1.25，那么其造成的蓝量削减就为150.75点。

Some might think this number is quite average, but it's all based on the premise that Fish's defense attributes are extremely high. Even so, this mana consumption is sufficient for a low-level account, since one-on-one duels are always very long matches, often lasting sixty or seventy rounds.

"As the damage continues at this rate, Fish's mana will slowly decrease," commentator Junhong said seriously.

When the commentator Junhong said this, the viewers in the live broadcast room also showed a look of sudden realization, and understood Feng Jun's intention.

Feng Jun's intention was actually very simple: to deplete Yu Zong Shenmu Lin's mana as much as possible.

Feng Jun knew better than anyone that because of his stat allocation to Constitution and Endurance, Yu Zong didn't have much mana. If they could just deplete Yu Zong's mana, then a Shenmu Forest without mana would be like a snake with its fangs pulled, posing little threat.

That's why Feng Jun had actually prepared the "Shocking Sword" page-turning child from the very beginning. This child was not only meant to target magic-based players, but also many sealing-based players.

Of course, some might mention potions like "Femme fatale" and "Heavenly Dragon Water." However, it's important to know that "Femme fatale" is a level 3 potion, and each level 3 potion occupies one item slot. As for "Heavenly Dragon Water," each use only restores 150 mana points.

Under such circumstances, the restored mana is negligible and cannot play a significant role.

Clearly, Mr. Yu had also thought of this, and in the following rounds, he launched a frenzied attack on Feng Jun's baby.

Unfortunately, Lady Luck was on Feng Jun's side this time as well, with two consecutive Divine Blessings triggering, which caused Yu Zong's several attacks to fail.

Gradually, Feng Jun regained the initiative and completely dominated the situation.

When the round count reached 41, Feng Jun's pet was finally knocked off the field. This means that the pet had been on the field for a full fourteen rounds, and the series of breathtaking sword strikes had left Yu Zong's mana reserves in a precarious state.

When the round count reached 45, Yu Zong's Shenmu Forest began using the Serpent Beauty skill to restore his mana.

Unfortunately, the mana that had just been restored was depleted once again by Feng Jun's Shattering Strike.

Therefore, he could only continue using the femme fatale technique in an attempt to quickly restore his mana.

However, things didn't go as planned. Every time Feng Jun got angry, he would unleash a devastating attack on Yu Zong.

When the round count reached 61, Fish had no more mana potions left to restore his mana.

After 68 rounds, Feng Jun finally summoned his Nuclear Weapon Listening Beast. With the start of the 69th round, the Nuclear Weapon Listening Beast in front of Feng Jun successfully used the skill "Observing All Things".

Skills like "Mount Tai Pressing Down," "Hellfire," and "Flooding Jinshan" were unleashed one after another on Fish Boss.

Under the continuous bombardment, Fish, whose health was already very low, collapsed weakly onto the cold floor.

The duel ended at that moment, and Feng Jun's Tang Dynasty finally won the one-on-one match, successfully advancing to the semifinals of the winners' bracket.

"Phew, I finally won. This seems to be the longest one-on-one duel I've ever had." Feng Jun looked at the duel in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief.

This intense duel was undoubtedly the longest one-on-one duel Feng Jun had ever fought, lasting a full 69 rounds. Fortunately, one-on-one duels are relatively fast-paced; if it had been a five-on-five match, who knows how long it would have taken.
