Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day-Chapter 715 - 508: The Chess Played by Li Zheng_3

If there wasn't enough data to support it, Marjin would even think that Zhan Zhouzhou's achievements in the Sword Dao were unparalleled in history.

"Both Li Zheng and Zhan Zhouzhou can perform similar attack techniques, but upon closer examination, I haven't seen any exceptionally brilliant Swordsmanship techniques when Li Zheng strikes."

Marjin is ultimately a young man, and after others acknowledged his identity, he couldn't resist wanting to return to the initial topic to prove his expertise.

"From the traces of his moves, there's a hint of Yagyu Swordsmanship from Nihong Country. The Yagyu Swordsmanship suits fine and long swords, but in Li Zheng's hands, it feels somewhat incongruous, which he seems to have modified himself."

"This in itself is commendable! After all, what suits oneself is the best, a principle that many martial artists haven't fully grasped in their hearts."

Unexpectedly, Marjin positively evaluated an aspect of Li Zheng, proving that Li Zheng was not simply a waste but a master with true skills.

"Moreover, the stance he held the sword in while surging up just now had traces of Spear Art in it. I suspect that besides Swordsmanship and Swordsmanship, he also has some understanding of Spear Art, Stick Technique, and Whip Technique..."

At this point, Marjin suddenly frowned.

Li Zheng's diverse skills explained why he fell short of Zhan Zhouzhou in any single art, leading to Marjin realizing his initial judgment was indeed biased.

"I retract my previous statement that Li Zheng is inferior to Zhan Zhouzhou. This person has learned extensively rather than with specialization."

"Additionally, he's achieved success in each art, which is also commendable on the path of martial arts."

Hearing these words, Li Zheng's fans felt much relieved, and they even began to see Marjin's statements as quite profound and reasonable.

"Hearing you say that, I find it a bit unfortunate," said a young aristocrat from Lu City. "Everyone's energy is limited, and if Li Zheng could specialize in one path, his achievements in martial arts might not be much weaker than Zhan Zhouzhou."

"Not necessarily!"

Someone else chimed in, "Judging from the traces of various martial arts in his swordplay, I think he's only suited for a mixed approach. Focusing on one might not yield results."

"Exactly! I think so too," another person immediately agreed. "I've watched his recent moves, and he never follows a fixed pattern. I've seen him subconsciously use Swordsmanship techniques with a long sword several times, which is just eyesore.

This is the result of not undergoing systematic training and not having a clear definition of each martial art. It's hard to imagine what he would become if he specialized in one."

"Ultimately, it's the lack of a qualified mentor to guide him that led to this situation." Marjin made a final judgment on Li Zheng: "Rather than calling him a martial arts prodigy, it's better to call him a martial arts patchwork monster.

I truly don't know where he got all these different martial arts skills from, but he somehow muddled them together into his own unique path."

This muddled fellow can't be considered a genius, nor is he a fool.

He can only be considered...

Mediocre?

The word flashed through Marjin's mind, feeling it was very fitting for Li Zheng.

At the same time, the so-called 'mediocre' Li Zheng, defined by these martial arts aristocrats, caught hold of a grey feather obtained from decomposition and flew in front of Zhan Zhouzhou, who was lauded as a 'once-in-a-millennium Sword Dao prodigy,' and handed it over.

"Keep it safe, don't lose it."

Since he promised to obtain this item for Zhan Zhouzhou, Li Zheng wouldn't secretly keep it for himself.

"Thank you."

Zhan Zhouzhou weakly raised her hand to take the grey feather, emitting a sluggish aura, as if any player could easily send her back to the Transfer Space at this moment.

Unleashing thirty consecutive Sword Qi was not a small burden on Zhan Zhouzhou, and being able to maintain her current relatively poised state was thanks to the hover propulsion device Li Zheng had previously given her.

This scene left the outside players astounded.

"What the...!? Wait a minute! Why does this feel illogical?"

"Yeah! When Li Zheng fought the Whale King and Tree Spirit before, he ended up with mutual destruction with the Boss despite everyone buying time for him, yet this time he's completely fine?"

"Damn! Brothers, we might have been tricked! Think about it carefully, what was the cause of Li Zheng's death in the last two instances of mutual destruction with the Boss?"

With this player's reminder, those watching the livestream were startled to realize that Li Zheng died those two times because his own sword drained him of blood.

But in reality, he had ways to prevent this from happening.

So...

Did Li Zheng die on purpose those two times?

Some realized this and were even more puzzled.

Why would he do that?

It couldn't possibly be because he has a masochistic tendency, right?

Bai Xiaosheng, a member of the Nine Heavens Think Tank, watched this scene and similarly realized the reasoning, his expression complex.

He roughly guessed the reason behind Li Zheng's actions.

He wanted to create an illusion for those participating in the event.

An illusion that the arena Boss was extremely difficult to kill.

He wanted to convey a notion through his mutual destruction with the Boss — that even the top matrix-recognized combatant needed to risk everything under the protection of thousands to kill the Boss. Our obviously inferior troops should refrain from getting involved. Otherwise, it would be a pointless death, making wedding clothes for others.
