I Have Infinite Skill Points

This line, when broadcasted live, reached the ears of every audience in front of their TVs and computer screens.

"I'm in a hurry? Impressive! Although there's not a single domineering line, why does it sound so domineering?"

"Right now, I really want to interview Wolf. How did you manage to say that line so sincerely and politely?"

"Is that sincere? Clearly, Wolf is getting cocky, even starting to make sweeping attacks. What does the other side, Wu Xiao, feel when he hears this?"

"Right, you said Jin Cheng had poor decorum before, but now it seems Wolf's decorum is just as bad; both are wildly arrogant."

"The two commenters above who know nothing, Wolf and Hu Qing are friends, okay? Hu Qing got seriously injured; didn't you see Wolf rush out directly from backstage? Now that Hu Qing has gone for emergency treatment, Wolf is definitely very worried."

"Rescue is the doctor's job. The organizers have Medical Attribute Star Martial Warriors. Even if Wolf is worried, it's of no use, right? Perhaps what he said was a bit thoughtless. Even if you're worried, shouldn't you be mindful of the occasion?"

"Um... Wolf, do you have something important?" Mr. Qin, one of the judges, asked indifferently from the stage.

"Just now backstage, I only gave Hu Qing preliminary treatment to stabilize his life, but to heal his injuries, I still need to continue the rescue. My previous statement was thoughtless, and I ask Wu Xiao to forgive me."

Wu Xiao's mouth twitched. Is the problem now about forgiving or not? You really consider me a nobody in your heart, don't you? Do you think you can beat me if you're in a hurry? I'm a peak Star Shine Stage all-rounder, alright? Although I'm not strong against the weak, I'm not weak against the strong either. Otherwise, how could I have made it to the top seven? Aren't you underestimating me too much? So you think you can finish me off in a flash, huh? Fine, later on I want to see how you 'hurry'!

"What? You are... a Medical Attribute Star Martial Warrior?" Mr. Xiaobao, a judge, suddenly stood up.

"Yes," Wang Lan said indifferently, "Can we start now?"

"Let's start!" Director Min's voice suddenly rang out over the public address system.

"Begin!" The host immediately said upon receiving the instructions.

But the moment the host announced the start, Wang Lan's body instantly turned into a beam of light and shot towards Wu Xiao on the opposite side.

Wu Xiao lightly stomped the ground, and in an instant, the arena's surface was covered with a dense, interlaced arrangement of cement spikes.

The same scene had also occurred during Hu Qing's match.

Earth Attribute Star Martial Warriors changing the terrain to restrict their opponents was their standard opening move in a duel. Therefore, nine out of ten Earth Attribute Star Martial Warriors would adopt the same approach at the moment of attacking.

An old routine isn't necessarily bad; it's about how well it's executed.

At least Wang Lan is an agile warrior, and this move can effectively limit his mobility.

But... didn't we just hear Wang Lan admit he's a Medical Attribute Star Martial Warrior? Is he a support-type? Since when did support start dealing damage?

In an instant, the bullet comments flew.

"This is a Medical Attribute Star Martial Warrior? This is the most unconventional Medical Attribute I've ever seen, right?"

"Bragging, right? Doesn't look like a healer at all."

"Hey, commenter above, watch your words! Healers can be formidable too! Are you looking down on my Tauren warrior?"

"I don't think it's fake; there's no need for that. Wolf entered anonymously, so there's no benefit in deceiving us."

"What kind of Medical Attribute is this? He's totally an agile warrior. The Medical Attribute is just incidental."

"You ask me what kind of Medical Attribute this is? I'll tell you now!"

"If the shooter can't kill someone, the healer does."

"If the tank can't hold on, the healer withstands!"

"If the DPS can't destroy a target, the healer destroys it!"

"In one sentence, what teammates can do, the healer can do. What teammates can't do, the healer has to do even more. After all, he's your dad."

"Damn it, can you stop the bullet comments? This is the final battle; Wolf is about to one-shot him... miss one frame and believe it or not, I'll hunt you down through the internet cable!"

"Then turn off the bullet comments!"

Online, the chat exploded in an instant. At the competition venue, Wang Lan's hands, wielding Flame Swords, crossed like cutting machines, sweeping across all the protruding spikes as if they were weeds, clearing a large swath.

No matter how hard Wu Xiao pushed his Star Power to grow the spikes, Wang Lan's pace didn't change in the slightest.

Wang Lan's speed grew faster and faster, and the distance... also grew shorter and shorter.

However, standing in place, Wu Xiao's face showed no fear as Wang Lan approached. Under his lowered face, a strange, cold smile tugged at his lips. You think only Hu Qing knows how to hide things?

Suddenly, Wu Xiao lifted his head, and Star Power surged around his body.

"Water Sword Attack!"

A bright stream of water shot out of Wu Xiao's mouth, so fast it surpassed vision.

The moment that flash of white light appeared, it had already reached Wang Lan's face.

Many ordinary people would think, water, what power could it have? Water Attribute Star Martial Warriors are either gentle girls or warm-hearted guys, with soft personalities and gentle skills.

But those who really witness a true Water Attribute Star Martial Warrior using Star Martial Skills would realize how absurd their past notions were.

Water Attribute women are very gentle, and Water Attribute men are also very warm. But to say Water Attribute Star Martial Skills lack attack potency? Most who thought that way are already dead.

Water can change its form and its properties. Water possesses immense, majestic power as well as terrifying impact force. The speed of water can be limitless. As long as your strength has no upper bound, you can endlessly accelerate water.

No one knew Wu Xiao had both Earth and Water Attributes; he had always used only his Earth Attribute from beginning to end.

No one knew how fast the Water Sword he suddenly unleashed was. At least, it was faster than the speed of sound.

Therefore, Wang Lan was pierced through the chest by the Water Sword in an instant.

"AHHH!"

"Someone's dead!"

"AHHH!"

Whether in the stands or in front of their televisions, everyone let out a scream. But just an instant later, they were horrified to discover there were now two Wolfs in the arena.

As one figure was pierced through the chest, another had already dashed two meters away.

"What?" Wu Xiao was astonished. How could you dodge such a sudden Water Sword attack?

"Star Cloud Dance? Wolf has used the Star Cloud Dance to avoid Wu Xiao's hidden trump card! Huh, why have all the judges stood up? Why would they stand up? Was there something unbelievable about that last scene?"

But the judges, as if they hadn't heard the host's comments, were staring with shock at Wang Lan, who was still rapidly closing the distance to Wu Xiao without any change in momentum.

"Earth Thorn!"

In an instant, countless tiny Earth Spikes appeared before Wang Lan, forming a thorn wall in an attempt to block his advance.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Lan's hands brandished his Flame Sword, slashing through the thorn wall.

"Water Sword!"

As Wang Lan cut through the thorn wall, the Water Sword came rushing at him again. And for the second time, Wang Lan successfully avoided the Water Sword's attack with Star Cloud Dance.

Impossible, how is this possible? He... he doesn't need time to switch between Star Martial Skills? How could there be no interval at all, instantly completing the switch? Those are two different Star Martial Skills! One is a Form Changing Star Martial Skill, the other an Attribute Changing Star Martial Skill. The methods to control Star Power for them are as different as heaven and earth; how could he instantly complete the switch? You... you're defying science—

But while this thought was still crystallizing in his mind, Wang Lan appeared in front of Wu Xiao in an elegantly flowing manner, his palm stopping right beside Wu Xiao's neck.

The host looked up in amazement at the match timer.

The digits were frozen at thirty seconds!

A battle in the Top Seven Competition, resolved in just thirty seconds of fighting...

How... how is today's recording supposed to continue? There were only three matches today; the first took five minutes, which was already considered extremely fast. The expectation was that the second match, Wang Lan's duel, would last a bit longer. After all, with Wang Lan's popularity, the audience would enjoy a longer fight. But you, ending the fight in thirty seconds, are you even a man?

"I'm sorry, I'm really in a rush," Wang Lan apologized sincerely, even bowing slightly.

With a flash, he had disappeared from sight.

"Where's Hu Qing?"

"We were cleaning him up when he woke up and walked out. He seemed alright, so I didn't stop him."

"Understood." Wang Lan turned and walked towards the exit of the TV studio.

"It was indeed a match that defied expectations. The outcome came too quickly, too suddenly... truly hard to believe. Wu Xiao, what's your take on this match?"

With limited time, the host resorted to stalling tactics. Otherwise, the hour-long Top Seven Competition would truly end in just twenty minutes.

"I'm completely convinced of Wolf's strength. I didn't expect that my trump card, which I had hidden until now, would be utterly ineffective against Wolf. Wolf's dodging and movement technique were simply unfathomable. So, there is no feeling of defeat in losing to such an opponent; I feel rather fulfilled. I still lack in many areas."

"Wolf's strength is indeed there for all to see. Mr. Xiaobao, Mr. Qin, I saw you both jump up in surprise just now. May I ask what you saw? I think both the audience here and those watching from elsewhere are filled with curiosity."

"Ahem..."

"I don't know how to put this, or maybe what I say will just come across as a joke. This thing that shouldn't have happened... but it did happen right before our eyes," Mr. Qin said, his expression still full of disbelief.

"By all accounts, under normal circumstances, Wolf should have lost."

"WOW!"

Those words instantly stirred up a storm.

"Wu Xiao's tactics weren't flawed. His strategy, strength, and timing were all very precise. He used his Earth Attribute to lull Wolf into complacency, then unexpectedly struck a heavy blow with a rapid Water Sword. Against anyone else, Wu Xiao's strike would have surely worked. But no one can understand why it didn't work on Wolf."

"This... We still don't understand. Mr. Qin, could you explain a bit more... clearly?"

"It involves a common-sense fact: there's a delay when switching between two different Star Martial Skills. It's like switching modes; there needs to be a lag. Wolf's Star Cloud Dance should be a Form Changing Star Martial Skill, while Flame Sword is an Attribute Changing Star Martial Skill. The fastest recorded time for switching from an Attribute Changing Star Martial Skill to a Form Changing Star Martial Skill is 0.8 seconds. But just now, from the moment Wu Xiao launched his attack until it should have hit its target, less than 0.3 seconds elapsed. And yet, Wolf dodged effortlessly, even without the slightest strain. This means Wolf had no interval between switching Star Martial Skills. As of now, that should be impossible for anyone to do."

Now everyone understood. Wu Xiao's move was flawless; tactically, there were no issues. So, if anyone else had been his opponent, Wu Xiao's strike would have worked.

He shouldn't have lost, but he just happened to meet someone who was basically cheating.
