The next day, the finals of the WSL China region.
The Eternal Moon Hall was packed with people. Players from all over the country had gathered here to enjoy the gluttonous event of the virtual competition.
The list of the top eight teams was hung high above the big screen. The champion would be decided in the morning, and there would be a celebratory feast in the afternoon. Everyone could return home at night. Of course, you could also choose to stay in Shanghai and have fun. The Eternal Moon Hall would provide three days of basic food and lodging.
However, it was unwise to choose to have fun in Shanghai. If you were stuck in traffic for seven or eight hours, you wouldn't be in the mood to have fun. It was better to travel to a second-tier city like Suzhou.
The contestants entered the arena. As the representative of the Hall of Fame, Seven-star Lamp entered the arena in an imposing manner. Ling Xue and I said with a smile, "May Old Seven be the first to be eliminated!"
Ling Xue laughed softly. "It'll be difficult. Soul Battle Robes' next match is against Temple of the Moon. They have a high chance of making it to the semifinals, but it's true that they won't make it to the finals because they're facing our Snow Moon."
"Haha, right!"
Soon, the first match of the morning began.
Soul Battle Robes VS Temple of the Moon
Seven-star Lamp personally entered the arena for the first match. Although he didn't have the help of the Flaming Bone Dragon, he could still put up a good fight.
However, his opponent was Hong Lingwu, the legendary Ice Dragon Knight.
The grudges between the two sides were so complicated that they didn't say much before they started fighting.
Seven-star Lamp knew that Hong Lingwu's Ice Sealing Slash was powerful, so he used Death Illusion to trick Hong Lingwu into using Ice Sealing Slash twice in a row. In the end, he defeated Hong Lingwu 2: 0. This was to be expected.
The second match was Soul Battle Robes' number one assassin, Gregory VS Geomancer, Han Xin.
In the first season of the WSL, Han Xin shone brilliantly, and his strength was extraordinary. This time, he was just as sharp, and he forced Gregory to retreat with a clean 2: 0. This was also an expected outcome.
The third match was between Soul Battle Robes' ace player The Waning Moon In The Morning Breeze and Temple of the Moon's Magic Swordsman Flying Sword.
As a result, a surprising scene happened. The Waning Moon In The Morning Breeze finished off Flying Sword as if he was chopping melons and vegetables. This made Hong Lingwu very unhappy.
The fourth match was between Soul Battle Robes' number one Mage, Xuan Paper, and Yellowing, versus Temple of the Moon's number one Berserker, Qin Empire.
After a ferocious slaughter, the Great Qin Empire died within a sea of flames. The yellowed paper was incredibly tough, and even if it was hit by the Great Qin Empire's Cyclone Shield, it would be able to completely disregard the Great Qin Empire's Cyclone Shield. Zhao Fu controlled the Flame Spirit, and the yellowed paper sent the Great Qin Empire into the sea of flames.
The final match was 3-1. Temple of the Moon had been eliminated, and Soul Battle Robes advanced to the semifinals.
…
Next up, it was Snow Moon's turn to face Autumn Rain.
After Iced Tea's intense argument and mental struggle, the names of our opponents appeared on the big screen — —
1v1: Bing Cha LV-275 VS Solitary Grave LV-274
1v1: Chrysanthemum Daohana LV-274 VS Listening To The Rain From The Window LV-273
1v1: Frivolous Scholar LV-277 VS Hellfire LV-275
1v1: Zi Yue LV-272 VS Guardian of the Rye LV-269
2v2: Frivolous Scholar LV-277 & Bing Cha LV-275 VS Solitary Grave LV-274 & Hellfire LV-275
… …
Even Listening To The Rain From The Window was participating. It looked like this successful lady was getting better and better at the game.
"Uncle, you lost …" I decided to test the waters first and engage in psychological warfare.
Solitary Grave shrugged. "A loss is a loss. It doesn't matter. Let's try again next year …"
He was honest. Psychological warfare failed.
Both sides entered the arena, and the match soon began.
The first match was Bing Cha VS Solitary Grave. Both of them were the best fighters of their respective teams, and this match was second only to me and Hellfire.
"Xu Bing, your dad said he misses you a lot. Go home and see him!" Solitary Grave said with a smile.
Bing Cha also smiled. "It's fine. There's no rush. I can go home after I win."
Solitary Grave was embarrassed, but Bing Cha didn't hold back at all. Solitary Grave was a Dragon Knight, but he couldn't ride a giant dragon here. This natural advantage was gone, and Solitary Grave's equipment was only an S5. It was an entire level lower than Bing Cha's S6, and his weapon was slightly inferior as well.
With all sorts of factors added together, Solitary Grave lost two rounds straightforwardly.
The score was 1: 0. As the vanguard of Snow Moon, Bing Cha didn't disappoint and won the first match.
The second match was Chrysanthemum Daohana VS Listening To The Rain From The Window.
Both players were mages. Chrysanthemum Daohana's advantage was her long HP, and Listening To The Rain From The Window's advantage was her Magic Attack, which was higher than Chrysanthemum Daohana's.
As a result, the two girls randomly attacked each other in the forest. The moment Cyclone Shield shattered, Chrysanthemum Daohana sealed her opponent. Listening To The Rain From The Window lost a precious point.
The third match, the highlight, was finally here. It was me against Hellfire!
Hellfire was wearing a full set of Evil Spirit equipment. I was puzzled. Who had bought the Evil Spirit equipment set that I had farmed with Ling Xue? It turned out that Solitary Grave had given it to Hellfire. He had been quite rich recently, and with the advantage of ascending to Heaven Domain, he had killed people and sold equipment. He had earned more than 50 million from equipment alone. Seven-star Lamp would definitely be envious.
The Evil Spirit equipment set was a Level 275 divine equipment, and Hellfire had just reached the required level to equip it. He must have put in a lot of effort before the start of WSL, or else he wouldn't have reached Level 275 so quickly. Also, the Evil Spirit equipment set's stats were slightly lower than the S6 set, and it was the first choice for male melee players at the current stage of the game. Hellfire definitely couldn't be underestimated!
Of course, I had a huge advantage. Inheritance Cyclone. In reality, Hellfire was still at an absolute disadvantage in front of me!
"Scholar, go easy, ha!"
Hellfire laughed and waited for the countdown to end.
Whoosh!
With a soft sound, I entered Shadowmeld. I had no choice, I was too cautious. I had to go all out against a top-tier expert like Hellfire. Either I didn't abuse him, or I would abuse him to death!
Moving slowly, Hellfire closed his eyes and felt the power of the earth and wind. Suddenly, he stepped on the ground, and a messy wind blade exploded. It was an area of effect damage!
I couldn't dodge it in time, so I appeared. Without a word, I pulled out my sword and charged!
"Adjudication!"
My ultimate skill descended, and I didn't care if [Adjudication] worked or not. I followed up with a Divine Dragon Slash!
Dust flew. Hellfire, with around 70% health, suddenly moved quickly to the right. He suddenly stopped, turned around, and used a Gale Sword Energy!
The Holy Domain energy swirled around the sword energy, cutting at my armor like a wind blade.
“503843！”
Not bad, this attack power was already very scary!
My feet didn't stop, and I used Swift Zigzag three times to avoid Hellfire's second wave of attacks. My body flashed, and I stuck to the back of Hellfire's sword. I used Total Annihilation with my North Dark Sword!
Keng keng keng...
“miss！”
“miss！”
“402384！”
“427474！”
“442986！”
Hellfire's reaction speed was extremely fast. He managed to block twice, but he was unable to block the three swords that followed. After a series of slashes, his HP was already less than half.
I quickly chased and slashed from behind, Waning Moon Slash!
"Stop!"
Hellfire suddenly turned around and smiled helplessly. "I lost the initiative this round, I admit defeat."
“ok！”
A white light flashed, and Hellfire forfeited this round.
We switched to a different map, and the second round began.
Hellfire was a very stubborn person, and he chose to compete with me in mechanics and reaction speed. In the end, he lost by a bit and contributed a precious point.
3: 0. Snow Moon won the third round!
With this score, we're already in the semifinals. We're only two steps away from the championship!
Our next opponent was the Soul Battle Robes army led by Seven-star Lamp!
Ling Xue came up to me and gave me a hug when I walked out of the arena. Many of the spectators were so anxious that their eyes turned red. Ling Xue was known as the Goddess of Spirit of Grief, and although she wasn't participating in the tournament today, she was here in person. Seeing Ling Xue in person made many people cry, and seeing the Goddess of Spirit of Grief throw herself into another man's arms made many people hug each other and cry.
"Very sharp. You took down Hellfire with a 2: 0. I knew that kid was no match for you!"
Ling Xue said with a smile.
I nodded, put an arm around her waist, and sat down at the participant area. "Next up is Soul Battle Robes. If we can beat them, the championship is pretty much ours!"
"Mn!"
There were no dark horses in the WSL China region this time. The biggest dark horse was probably Unparalleled, but Snow Moon had trampled over him. There was no need to worry about him.
The third match of the morning was Battle Soul VS Black Wind Stockade!
Both teams entered the game, and I couldn't help but laugh when I saw their equipment. Ling Xue, Bing Cha, and the other girls also covered their mouths and laughed. A speck of dust wearing mid-grade Immortal-grade boots and legguards? Even more surprising was that he had made it to the quarterfinals of the WSL. His basic strength was amazing!
Very Cute and Easy to Push wasn't much better. The best he could prepare was a Level 175 Saint-level bow and arrow.
On the Battle Soul's side, all their elites came out. Sword, Fire, Three Generals, and Lin Shuang were a perfect combination. The 2v2 was Lin Shuang and Ghost Flame. Ranged + melee was a very good 2v2 composition.
In the end, the results of both sides appeared half an hour later —
A Speck of Dust 2: 0 Sword Fire Executioner
Very Cute and Very Easy 1: 2 Lin Shuang
Black Fiend 1: 2 Sword Fire Dragon Soul
Candle Blowing Ghost 0: 2 Sword Fire Ghost Flame
A Speck of Dust & Very Easy 1: 2 Lin Shuang & Sword Fire Ghost Flame
In the end, Black Wind Stockade, the former Brotherhood, lost 1: 4. The main reason was that A Speck of Dust and Very Cute and Very Easy were too difficult to train back after deleting their accounts. Otherwise, they would have had a very good chance of winning. At the very least, they wouldn't have been beaten so easily by Lin Shuang and the others.
The last match of the quarterfinals, Heaven Key Army VS Dream of Snow Moon!
Everyone was shocked. From the start of the WSL until now, this was a true battle of aces. Both sides were very exciting and very close. In the end, Dream of Snow Moon narrowly won —
Shadow Follower 2: 1 Bing Zhiyi
Melancholy 1: 2 Fleeting Time
Spring And Autumn Dance 1: 2 Nangong Yuexi
Flying Fire 2: 0 Snowy Grass
Shadow Follower & Spring And Autumn Dance 1: 2 Bing Zhiyi & Nangong Yuexi
…
The last 2v2 was lost too badly, so badly that Shadow Follower cried out in anger. He wanted to use the spiral strategy with Spring And Autumn Dance to kill Bing Zhiyi, but he didn't expect Spring And Autumn Dance's operation to not be able to keep up, and the spiral strategy became a parallel strategy. In the end, he was held back by Bing Zhiyi, and Nangong Yuexi took the opportunity to kill both of them with her powerful archery skills. This match was very tragic, so much so that after the end of the match, there was a thunderous applause.
The battle was in full swing, and at around nine in the morning, the semifinals entered.
Snow Moon VS Soul Battle Robes
