Bang!
The sturdy hull this time wasn't embedded, but was bounced right off.
Extremely Stinky wasn't faring any better, his head buzzing from the impact.
Teacher Xia seized the moment to switch the grip on his dagger, and the light of Anka Hit, boosted by Shadow Combo, extended nearly a meter from the blades, making the two daggers resemble long swords.
Hiss—
Intersecting shadows carved a deep X mark on the ground but failed to penetrate the layer of chitin.
Teacher Xia exclaimed, "Damn! Why can't I break through the shield!?"
"A shield? And you can't even pierce it?"
Dahuang was taken aback, rapidly recalling past instance experiences in his mind.
If their strongest single-target burst couldn't break the opponent's Energy Shield, then there was no point in continuing the battle—aside from anomalies like 'Sturdy Shield' Galvin, the ability of other Transcendents to activate a shield generally aligned with their actual combat strength.
So, why keep fighting? Run!
