Fight!
When Happy saw that the great elder's qi had become even greater and realized that they had both become completely enraged by the fight, he resolutely gave up on using Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and switched to Ten True Dragon Styles as well as Joined Finger. He moved around and depleted the great elder's qi while fighting head to head against him.
Even though the protective properties of Golden Bell Cocoon were weaker than those of the great elder's body fortification, with Nine Yang Divine Skill and fourth-echelon Golden Armor Set, Happy could fight a war of attrition!
The first time they exchanged blows, neither side gained an advantage over the other.
Even though the great elder's offense was much fiercer and stronger, Happy's two Joined Finger attacks were not easy to receive either.
They injured the other while also suffering injuries themselves!
