Her Origin Energy Shield was tough, but it was no match for Candlelight Shadow's sharpness. Not to mention that God's Dance was also using long-range attacks. Since Luo River God of the Capital couldn't kill a single one of them in a short time, she had no choice but to concede defeat. Everyone else:!
1: 0. Purple Lily had lost one point!
The second round was Purple Lily's turn. Moonkiss and Familiar Scent took turns to protect each other. They planned to kill Candlelight Shadow first because the Martial God was too strong. There was no way they could suppress Candle Dragon if they didn't kill him.
Unfortunately, Luo River God of the Capital had miscalculated. Candlelight Shadow refused to charge forward and instead circled around the back. He used God's Dance and Transient Smoke and Clouds to whittle down Moonkiss, Pretty Little Fish and the others before taking down Purple Lily in one fell swoop. The match was as tragic as ever. Luo River God of the Capital relied on her superb mechanics and skills to kill the other four members of Candle Dragon, but she still fell to Candlelight Shadow's sword in the end.
Candle Dragon beat Purple Lily by a small margin and successfully advanced to the semifinals. Purple Lily, on the other hand, couldn't advance to the quarterfinals. Luo River God of the Capital couldn't accept this outcome. It was true that Luo River God of the Capital was the best mage in China. Be it her skill, equipment, or skills, she was second to none. Even Candlelight Shadow had to avoid her. Unfortunately, Moonkiss was the only one who was a super expert, and the rest of her subordinates were inferior to the four Candle Dragon Gods. That was why they had lost.
… …
When Li Chengfeng saw Purple Lily's group walk off the stage in a bad mood, he lamented, "Sigh, Luo River God of the Capital is seriously strong. If she were in our party, our chances of winning against Candle Dragon would be at least 70% or more!"
I nodded. "Yeah. Unfortunately, Wang Luo is also a ruler of a region. There's no way she would compromise and join Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls."
"Mn."
After that, it was time for the second half of the bracket. The first two matches were Hunting Moon Dynasty VS Snowy Cathaya, and The Monarch Descends VS Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls Second Team. Beauty Lin was going up against Hunting Moon Dynasty. Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties was the 22nd CGL Hall of Famer, so his strength was not to be underestimated. His subordinates were just as strong. The assassin Ghastly Demon Blade, the mage One Meter Sunshine, the archer Heaven-shaking Bow, and the tactician General's Wind were all powerful.
"Let's go!"
Lin Yixin patted me on the shoulder before walking up the stage with her helmet in hand. I looked up and smiled at her. "Good luck, Yiyi!"
Lin Yixin replied without looking back, "Don't worry, I'll beat you up in the finals!"
Me: "..."
The players of Hunting Moon Dynasty also went up the stage. Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties walked up to Lin Yixin and extended his hand. He smiled and said, "I'm very glad to be your opponent. Hello, I am Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties, a CGL Hall of Famer and the guild leader of Vanished God City!"
Lin Yixin's beautiful eyes swept across the other party. She had no intention of extending her hand at all. She smiled and said, "Let's see who's the real deal. I'm also very happy to be your opponent!"
With that said, the Fruit Knife Goddess led her subordinates into the competition room with her long hair fluttering in the wind.
The proud and beautiful Little Pepper wasn't even willing to touch her opponent's hand. This only served to fuel the excitement of the audience. This was the fearless Fruit Knife Goddess of the game! She didn't give in to anyone, not even a CGL Hall of Famer.
Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties looked a little embarrassed as his arm dangled in midair.
Ghastly Demon Blade couldn't help but smack his guild leader's hand away. He said, "Let's go. We'll know Snowy Cathaya's strength after the match!"
"Mn!"
A hint of killing intent appeared in Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties' eyes. He was a CGL Hall of Famer and the ruler of Vanished God City, but that girl didn't give him face at all. It looked like he had no choice but to teach Snowy Cathaya a lesson during the match!
The match began immediately. Snowy Cathaya's core members, Zi Chuanyu and Lifetaking Sword, were sitting not far away from us. They were sweating profusely as they commented on the match — "Not bad, Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties. He took out half of Purple Marquis's HP in one go!"
"That's nothing. Look at our guild leader's attack …"
"Fuck …"
"She killed him in one combo?
Heavens, this Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties is a CGL Hall of Famer, pooh! "
"Lin Yixin is just too strong. Didn't you see?
She blocked all of Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties' paths of retreat. That's why Purple Marquis was able to kill him so easily … "
"Tsk tsk, Shadow Chanel's Magic Attack is so strong. She took out at least half of Purple Marquis's HP every time she attacked …"
"Haha, I'm just kidding. Do you think Dark Tongue Mages have an undeserved reputation?"
… …
Snowy Cathaya KO 'ed their opponent 2: 0 while they were chatting. Hunting Moon Dynasty was eliminated from the Top 16, and Snowy Cathaya entered the Top 8!
I frowned. Beauty Lin was too cautious. Even at this point, she still wasn't willing to reveal her trump card. Although Shadow Chanel, the Dark Tongue Mage, had joined the match, the Holy Bard, Beauty At First Sight still refused to join the match. She only used basic Divine Valor, Death Match and low-level healing spells.
I believed that Lin Yixin didn't choose Beauty At First Sight just for her simple buffs. Absolutely not!
… …
Snowy Cathaya's victory meant that Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' second team's match was next. Xu Yang led Gui Guzi, High Fighting Spirits, Chaos Moon and Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun into the arena. Surprisingly, their opponent was led by a female player, and she was quite pretty. She wore a cyan dress and had a smile on her face.
She was none other than the guild leader of The Monarch Descends, Ling Xueshang. She was also an archer ranked 15th in the CGL Hall of Famer, and she would compete with Transient Smoke and Clouds, October Rain and Beiming Xue to determine who the best archer of the China server would be!
The information of The Monarch Descends' members was displayed on the big screen — Ling Xueshang Level 106 Archer ★ CGL Hall of Famer Mo Xiaoxiao Level 105 Warrior Purple Wind Chime Level 105 Warrior My Sky Level 105 Archer Ice Lemon Level 105 Archer...
It was an explosive team. There were two warriors and three archers. We hadn't paid attention to this team's matches until now, but it looked like our second team was about to meet a tough opponent.
"We must win!"
I gave them a death order before the battle began.
Gui Guzi looked back and said, "That depends on whether Ling Xueshang gives me face or not …"
"Anyway, let's do our best …"
It wasn't long before the members of both sides appeared on the battlefield. The level gap wasn't too big, and they were all pure explosive compositions. Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' members were all melee fighters, while the other side had two melee fighters and three archers. They were all physical attackers, so this battle was destined to be bloody.
"It's starting. Everyone else, watch as normal:!"
He Yi gripped the corner of her shirt tightly as she stared at the big screen nervously. Her long, snow-white neck was exposed beneath her hair, and her beautiful, refined aura of a guild leader was on full display.
I also looked up at the big screen. Ling Xueshang was calmly commanding the two warriors to hold the front while the three archers attacked with everything they had. The moment the battle began, all three archers unleashed Multi Arrow, a fan-shaped AoE skill!
"Multi Arrow …" I thought for a moment. This was a Level 100 archer skill, and even Beiming Xue hadn't gotten her hands on it yet. Holy shit, The Monarch Descends is so strong. Where did they get three Multi Arrow skill books?
Ling Xueshang isn't simple at all!
High Fighting Spirits still charged forward and slid between two warriors. He shouted, "Xiezhi Howl!"
Guigu 'zi also used Aurora Thrust in tandem with Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun's Rock Smash. With just one round of AoE attacks, the two melee players on the enemy side had actually died to the ground!
However, the situation didn't look good for us at all. Multiple Arrows rained down three times in a row, each one dealing around 1500 damage or so. In just five short seconds, Xu Yang, High Fighting Spirits and Chaos Moon were all dead!
Everyone watching the battle was shocked. Was this a head-on clash of brute force without any fancy tricks?
Half of our players were dead in less than ten seconds. What kind of battle was this?
Gui Guzi and Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun split up to attack from the sides. Gui Guzi's skill was especially good. He raised his spear and charged at Titan Barrier.
Unfortunately, Ling Xueshang was very experienced in battle. She easily killed Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun with a shake of her bow and then attacked Gui Guzi!
Clang clang clang!
When the arrows hit the shield, they were instantly deflected, only dealing around 300 damage. Gui Guzi's 2000 + Defense had already exceeded Ling Xueshang's expectations. The other book readers were dumbfounded.
Swhoosh!
The spear pierced through the air and pressed against Ling Xueshang's chest. Before Gui Guzi could exert any strength, Ling Xueshang abruptly drew her longbow. The fine steel arrow was covered in a layer of ice, and it nailed into Gui Guzi's chest with a loud bang. Ling Xueshang took the opportunity to retreat. She stepped on her leather boots and flew backward like a butterfly, quickly shaking off Gui Guzi.
"I'll hold him back. You guys attack!"
Ling Xueshang smiled faintly and raised her bow again. The arrow shone with a dark luster as it nailed itself into Gui Guzi's shield. The arrow immediately corroded Gui Guzi's armor like poison!
A message appeared at the bottom corner of the screen — Combat Log: Player "Ling Xueshang" used "Cursed Arrow", reducing player "Gui Guzi"'s Defense by 40% for 15 seconds!
… …
Fuck!
I slowly sat back down. I knew that Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' second team had lost. Be it in terms of skill or tactics, they had lost completely!
However, Gui Guzi wasn't willing to give up. He moved around with his spear, but Ling Xueshang's Freezing Arrows slowed him down again and again. The other two archers kept hitting him with Devil Piercing Arrows and Explosion Arrows. Gui Guzi was in so much pain that he wanted to die. He had almost 15000 HP, but he still couldn't stop the enemy's attacks!
Thud!
“4783！”
Ling Xueshang's Devil Piercing Arrow showed off her super attack power.
Gui Guzi abruptly collapsed to the ground and died.
0: 1. Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' second team advanced to the Top 16, but they couldn't advance any further. Their opponent was too strong, and there was nothing they could do.
