Chapter 323 – The Strongest Revealed (2/2)
“Swoosh…..”
A red arrow shot straight at me. However, I had seen it coming and remained scarily calm. Concentrating hard, I activated [Blade Rush] at the exact moment the [Shot of the Archery God]’s arrow tip touched my body. “Ka Cha!” I rushed forward 5 yards, dodging the attack completely. Immediately taking a step, I raised my Emperor Qin’s Sword as a frosty mist enveloped it, [Fierce Ice Blade]!
“Pa pa……”
Bai Li Ruofeng immediately let loose two more arrows, draining my health down to 1000 points. At that exact moment, [Shield of the Crimson Dragon] activated, using up 40 Rage, while my defense instantly showed a tremendous increase. Right after, [Dragon Knight’s Recovery] also activated, using up the remaining 60 Rage. Just as my rage depleted, I began quickly recovering my health!
“Pu!”
The [Fierce Ice Blade] cut into Bai Li Ruofeng’s chest, dealing 2910 damage. Immediately after, I rushed at him with a normal attack, going straight for the kill! It was the fate of any Archer – either kite me to death, or die to my close-combat abilities!
However, just as Bai Li Ruofeng was about to die, he didn’t fall to the ground but rather began condensing. My heart froze as I saw it. Motherf*cker, a third advancement Archer skill that allowed him to revive with 5% health!
Without another thought, I quickly ran to Bai Li Ruofeng’s body and started slashing at him. The Emperor Qin’s Sword activated with a ‘ding!’ as 5 rays of golden light appeared encircling the blade. Right when Bai Li Ruofeng began reviving, I activated a Lv 8 [Combo] that ripped his body to shreds –
1221！
1029！
1173！
1210！
1838！
The very last attack even dealt outstanding damage. Bai Li Ruofeng was full of regret as he weakly fell to his knees. There were no miracles in this world, he was dead for sure!
“Ding!”
System Notification: Congratulations! You have defeated Player 【Bai Li Ruofeng] and will successfully advance to the tournament for the top 32!
……
“Shua!”
I was teleported outside of the battle field and heard a loud cheer. Matcha rushed over with open arms to hug me while cheering with a big smile. “Boss… Boss is so strong! You actually beat CBN’s ranked 4 – Bai Li Ruofeng!!! God, even [Destiny]’s number one Archer has fallen to Boss’s sword. Amazing, just amazing…”
I could feel Matcha’s pair of 34C’s pressing tightly against my chest and was a little embarrassed. I nudged her shoulders and said, “Matcha, don’t get too excited……”
One Second Hero moved in to hug me too and chuckled, “I knew it, Matcha’s so pretty. How could Boss not take her? It really looks like this will develop into something more complicated…”
Matcha’s cheeks burned as she left my embrace and stared at One Second Hero, “Complicated my ass. One Second you douche, you only see what you want to see. I love Boss but we definitely don’t have that kind of a relationship!”
Bai Qi laughed out loud and said, “Alright alright, now quietly watch the rest of the competition….”
Glancing up at the big screen, I continued to watch as Lin Wan Er, grasping her dagger, slowly killed off Immortality Codex and smoothly entered into the top 32. Using an immensely strong magic attack, Dong Cheng Yue also advanced without a hitch. At the same time, Yue Qing Qian continued to stack stuns on her opponent, using a high level skill with extreme ease. Heaven’s Rebel did not have the chance to retaliate at all; eventually resulting in him getting overpowered and killed.
“Shua Shua Shua….”
The outlines of bodies began appearing as Matcha excitedly stood there, yelling out each of their names——
“Beauty Cang Tong advanced!”
“Beauty Cang Yue advanced…..”
“Wa…. even Old K advanced……”
“Little Wolf advanced!”
“Wang Jian advanced!”
“Yue Wei Liang advanced……. Wu, looks like Little Wolf really does have to treat everyone to a big meal tonight…..”
……
Everyone happily waited in the room and not long after, the final list of the top 32 participants was announced. Fang Ge Que, Q-Sword, Jian Feng Han, Yan Zhao Warrior, Mu Xuan, and Simple had easily advanced into the top 32. The only surprise was that [House of Prestige]’s Guild Master Bai Li Ruofeng was eliminated in the top 64. But, when everyone saw that his opponent was me, it wasn’t considered a fluke anymore.
Matcha looked at the list on the big screen, rubbed her mouth and said, “The pairings for the top 32 won’t come out until 6 o’clock. How…… How about we log off now to get some dinner or something?”
Wolf picked up his dagger and smiled, “Let’s go to Xiang Wei Xuan*! I’ve already reserved a private room for us…”
[Editor Note: Name of the restaurant – Hunan Pavillion]
I nodded and said, “Alright, then I’ll bring Wan Er and Dong Cheng over!”
General Li Mu said, “Ok, I’ll bring the Valiant Bravery brothers over to celebrate…..”
Yue Qing Qian giggled and said, “Then I’ll log off too and get some dinner. Ma Ma’s already rushing me. See you everyone!”
……
Everyone logged off and began to make their way to Xiang Wei Xuan for the party.
