Behind me, Ling Yue was fighting against Xing Tian with ice and fire magic. Unfortunately, Xing Tian was just too experienced, and it wasn't easy to take him down in a short amount of time. Qin Yun healed me again and brought my HP back to more than half. Dragon Soul and Four Directions' attack power weren't to be trifled with!
This meant that I had to face three people at once. Although all three of them were low on HP, it wasn't easy to deal with them!
Thud!
A white wave of wind refracted in front of me as I used Whirlwind Slash. It hit Four Directions and hit Dragon Soul!
“2874！”
“586！”
As expected, Sword Fire was instantly killed, while the Dragon Soul was left with only a sliver of HP.
Gui Zhi saw this and exclaimed, "Dragon Soul, you're using your ultimate skill!"
Dragon Soul immediately smiled and swung his battle axe. In the next moment, the axe came down with flames!
"Bang!"
My vision blurred, and I was hit without being able to dodge. At the same time, I was stunned!
Combat Log: You have been hit by player "Dragon Soul of Swordfire", "Fear Slash". You have been stunned for 2 seconds!
… …
It was only two short seconds, but I knew that I was going to die!
If Gui Zhi had two seconds to cast, he could turn a living person into a dead person...
As I expected, Gui Zhi began to charge his magic. When the two seconds were up, the purple fire dragon surged out again!
At the beginning of the battle, there were too many people around, and this kind of time-consuming magic was extremely easy to interrupt. Now that there were only a few people on the battlefield, the terrifying power of this powerful skill was immediately revealed!
Boom!
My entire body felt like it was being torn apart. The deadly magic had actually dealt a critical hit!
At the same time, a white light enveloped me. Qin Yun's Large-scale Heal had finally arrived. When my HP was almost full, Gui Zhi's Dark Fire Dragon Spell was so powerful that it emptied my HP again!
But it didn't kill me!
I immediately smiled. Standing in front of me, Dragon Soul couldn't help but shiver. He immediately understood that all chances were gone...
"Whoosh!"
He finished off the Dragon Soul with a single strike, then raised his Flame Spear high into the air. In the next moment, a scorching fire dragon burst out of the ground and sent Gui Zhao flying into the air. By the time he fell to the ground, Gui Zhao had already turned into a white light and flew out of the arena!
He turned around and saw that Ling Yue was being chased by Xing Tian. Xing Tian, on the other hand, was covered in frost and was in great pain. He said with a bitter face, "This sorcerer is too hard to kill …"
I smiled and walked up, "Xing Tian, it's over. Let's eat dinner!"
"Bang!"
With a Broken Shield Slash, the half-HP Judging Sky died helplessly.
Finally, only me, Ling Yue, and Qin Yun were left on the battlefield. Ling Yue and I were both at critical health, and Qin Yun was at half health. It was probably because of Xing Tian's skills. This battle was extremely difficult, and there were a few times when I was on the verge of defeat!
Ding ~!
System Notice: Your team has won the competition. Congratulations, you have entered the finals!
…
Swhoosh!
When I was teleported out of the arena, I was suddenly hugged by someone and heard Ling Xue's happy voice. "Hehe!
We won! We're finally in the finals! "
My heart sped up. Ling Xue had hugged both me and Ling Yue at the same time. As a result, Ling Yue lost her balance and leaned against my chest. Her face immediately turned red.
Ling Xue also realized that she had put her big sister in my arms and immediately regretted it. She hurriedly let go and pulled Ling Yue out of my arms. She said with a smile, "Well done, big sister. You played around with a berserker like Xing Tian!"
Ling Yue pretended to be calm and said with a smile, "It's okay. There were a few times when I was almost one-shot by him. Fortunately, I had Ice Armor and my Defense. Otherwise, I'm afraid Scholar would have to 1v4 me!"
I smiled. "This is the result of everyone's sincere cooperation. In reality, the biggest contributor is Qin Yun. Without her timely healing, I'm afraid we would've died a long time ago!
Damn, Ghost Blaze's skills are really powerful. In a one-on-one, I might not be able to beat him! "
Ling Xue smiled. "Of course. He has a hidden class like you, so he's naturally very strong!"
I nodded. Ling Yue said with a smile, "After today's competition, our workshop should have a good celebration. It really wasn't easy to come this far ~ ~"
Everyone expressed their agreement. At this time, the second half of the competition began. Hellfire's team VS World Defying Clan's team!
Hellfire's team's composition was a little special. The main attackers were Hellfire, Melancholy, and Solitary Grave. The other two were actually high-level Priests!
This way, the effect was very obvious. With Hellfire and Melancholy, these two ultimate killing weapons, the rest was just a matter of supplies. Two Priests was not too many. This way, it was the safest!
Arrogant Madman was as arrogant as ever. He raised his sword and smiled. "Solitary Grave!
I haven't settled the debt with you last time. This time, you met our World Defying Clan in the competition. It's your bad luck! "
"Oh?
Bad luck? "Solitary Grave said with a smile." Young man, aren't you afraid of cutting your tongue when you speak! "
Arrogant Madman couldn't win, so he scolded, "F * ck you, stop pretending to be deep in front of I. What are you!"
Solitary Grave shook his head and chuckled, "With this kind of quality, education is really a failure …"
For a moment, I actually had an illusion that Solitary Grave was like an old professor lamenting the failure of the education system. The vicissitudes of life and sorrow in his words made people sigh.
This time, Arrogant Madman came up with a new strategy. He turned around and said to Chrysanthemum Daohana, "Chrysanthemum Daohana, seal Hellfire first!
After we kill Hellfire, we'll take care of Melancholy. After we get rid of these two, the rest of the trash won't be a problem! "
Solitary Grave also came up with a strategy at the same time, "Hellfire, Little Fengzi, the two of you try to kill Chrysanthemum Daohana in an instant. Other than Chrysanthemum Daohana, the rest of the World Defying Clan are nothing to worry about. They're just a pile of rotten tomatoes and potatoes …"
Arrogant Madman was furious, "I'll xx your entire family!"
Proud World Floating Rain immediately grabbed Arrogant Madman's arm and said, "Brother!
You're cursing again. Dad said that you should pay attention to your manners! "
Arrogant Madman immediately went silent and looked hatefully at Solitary Grave and the others.
Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, three seconds countdown--
“3！”
“2！”
“1！”
Hellfire, dressed in a fiery red cloak, took the lead and charged forward!
Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana immediately raised her staff to seal, but who would have thought that Hellfire's mouth would curl up. Suddenly, his body would be covered in a layer of flames, and he would actually be invincible for a short period of time!
A big "Miss" floated above Hellfire's head. Chrysanthemum Daohana's sealing skill had obviously failed, and this skill seemed to have a cooldown of around 5 seconds. However, Hellfire wouldn't give Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana a second chance!
"Hua!"
Two glowing white wings spread out from Hellfire's back, and under the whistling wind, Hellfire's movement speed instantly increased. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana. The Soaring Phoenix Sword scattered in the air, and flames burst out!
“5898！”
The explosive damage number almost caused all the spectating players to scream. Although this was the effect of a critical strike, a critical strike could often push a person's emotions to the peak!
In the next moment, Hellfire didn't stop at all. His sharp sword turned with the wind, and a [Whirlwind Slash] also landed on Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana's body. Immediately, Chrysanthemum Daohana's health was reduced by another chunk!
After just one contact, her health had already been reduced to around a third!
Arrogant Madman was shocked, "Cleric, hurry up and heal!"
However, when he turned around to look, he saw that Melancholy's dagger had slashed across the Cleric's neck. In a flash of blood, the Cleric turned into a white light and flew out of the battlefield!
Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana was a little flustered, and she continuously retreated a few steps. She raised her staff and threw out a sealing skill again. This time, she accurately sealed Hellfire there. However, at this time, a figure suddenly flashed by, and Solitary Grave suddenly appeared in front of Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana. Heaven Piercing Halberd, the number two weapon on the Weapon Ranking, used [Total Annihilation], followed by a [Whirlwind Slash]. In the end, under this powerful combination of attacks, even though Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana had more than ten thousand health, she couldn't withstand the devastation …
"Hua!"
Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana's figure disappeared, and a white light flew out of the battlefield.
At the same time, Melancholy was proving his reputation as an Assassin Mage Killer. His Dark Gold – grade dagger also instantly killed Arrogant Drifting Rain.
The opponent's Bloodlust Arrogant was destroyed by Hellfire, who had regained his freedom, with a Blazing Sword. In the end, only Arrogant Madman was left standing there in a daze.
Solitary Grave laughed, "Do you have anything else to say?"
Arrogant Madman angrily said, "Yes!
I'll xx your whole family … "
In the end, before he could say "oo", Solitary Grave stepped forward and stabbed Arrogant Madman to death. The moment he pulled out the Heaven Piercing Halberd, Arrogant Madman's blood gushed out, and his eyes were filled with unwillingness as he died.
"I already said, don't curse …" Solitary Grave sighed.
… …
In less than three minutes, the battle was over. It was another overwhelming victory!
Just as Solitary Grave said, other than Faint Chrysanthemum Daohana, the rest of the Arrogant Clan's players were really nothing to worry about. Bloodlust Arrogant's mechanics were alright among normal players, but compared to a top-tier Assassin like Melancholy, he was far inferior. Arrogant Drifting Rain was just a little girl who played the game, so she wasn't that strong. Arrogant Madman was even worse, just like Wang Junjie.
Finally, both sides appeared in the finals. As expected, it was —
Snow Moon VS Time Like Water
Clearly, this was no longer a normal match. This was a battle between the top players of both sides!
The significance of this battle was far more than just leveling up three times and the quest rewards. Because, right now, almost 80% of the players in White Cloud City were watching this match. Without a doubt, the winner of this match would be the King of White Cloud City!
The so-called King, with a single call, hundreds would respond. Wherever his sword pointed, he would be invincible!
As a guild, once Xue Yue emerged victorious, there would be an endless stream of expert players coming to join Xue Yue. Recruiting a large group of high-level players would be a very valuable asset. After all, these players could help you conquer cities and conquer territories. They could help you expand your territory and allow you to truly dominate the world!
Thinking about it carefully, this championship was far too important to Snow Moon!
Similarly, it was equally important to Time Like Water. Although both sides were allies, they were secretly competing against each other. After all, there was only one King of White Cloud City, either Snow Moon or Time Like Water.
Ling Yue also understood this. She looked deeply at me and said softly, "Scholar, we have to do our best this time!
We have to make Snow Moon famous. If Snow Moon becomes the champion, then I will have a lot of bargaining chips. I'm even confident that I can convince my father and get rid of the shadow of Wang Junjie. Do you understand how important this championship is to me? "
I sucked in a deep breath and said, "Don't worry. As a member of Snow Moon, I will do my best to help you fulfill your wish. However, when are you going to pay me the 500,000 Guild Creation Tokens you owe me? I say, boss, delaying the wages of migrant workers is very immoral …"
Ling Yue burst into laughter and patted my shoulder. She said with a smile, "You bastard, after this match, I'll go home once to take out the pocket money I've hidden at home to pay you. How about that?"
"Yes, that's more like it …" I calculated. "Yes, I'm going to be rich soon!"
Ling Xue smiled and said, "Dummy, hurry up and check out the betting situation on the forum!"
I froze for a second and immediately pulled up the system menu. I found the betting system in the forums and saw that the betting for Snow Moon VS Fleeting Time had already started. The odds were ridiculous. Only 37% of people had bet on Snow Moon, 62% had bet on Fleeting Time, and the remaining 1% had bet on Brother Chun being a real man!
Without hesitation, I placed thirty thousand gold in my bag on Snow Moon winning. Who cares? If I'm going to play, then I'm going to play big. I'm going to use my own hands to win back my money!
Ling Xue smiled evilly and said, "I bet 5000 gold. Wuwuwu, I wanted to bet a bit more but I'm out of money. Idiot, can you lend me some?"
I spread my hands and said, "You should've said so earlier. I'm out of money. I'm borrowing it from Ling Yue …"
Ling Yue glared at me. "What are you two up to now?"
"Ah!
No … nothing. We were just talking about what that Lanzhou sesame seed cake on the forums means … "Ling Xue reacted quickly.
A few minutes later, the next match was about to begin —
Ding ~!
System Notice: Your party will begin the next match in 60 seconds. Your opponent is the party led by player "Hellfire". This is the final match. The winner will become the champion of the Return of the King and receive the title "King's Party"!
… …
Swhoosh!
In a flash of white light, we appeared on the battlefield at the same time. On the other side, Hellfire, Melancholy and Solitary Grave were watching us and clicking their tongues in praise. "This is a very entertaining match …"
Of course, with the participation of the two beauties from Xue Yue, the viewing value would be unparalleled!
Soon, the match officially began. Everyone held their breath and was nervous to death —
“3！”
“2！”
“1！”
Suddenly, there was a flash of white light. At the same time I charged Hellfire, Melancholy suddenly changed directions and broke away from Ling Xue's direction. He was actually charging directly at Ling Yue!
Ling Yue was slightly shocked and hurriedly retreated. But Melancholy looked up and a red light flew out!
With a "puchi" sound, a bright red blossomed on Ling Yue's chest.
“3427！”
Instant kill!
My heart sank. It's over!
Ling Yue was one-shot in the first moment...
