Chapter 148 (2/2)
Du Thirteen tightened his fist . “Beauty Lin probably sacrificed herself for the win . Didn’t you see how aggressive her charge was?”
I frowned and thought to myself . This makes no sense . With Lin Yixin’s personality, even if she charged more aggressively, she still would’ve saved herself some leeway to fall back on . Something must have happened .
However, this round was still a win . Purple Marquis and Zi Chuanyu fought with all their strength while the long-range attackers controlled the field with their suppression . They didn’t bring out their priest, opting for a brute-force strategy . It wouldn’t make sense if they didn’t win!
Swhoos.h.!.+
Once she returned back on the stage, Lin Yixin was silent and didn’t look so well .
The second match soon began!
The second battle was surprisingly similar to the first . Lin Yixin charged into enemy lines and was blasted out by another Ice Dragon Howl and Blaze combo but still won in the end . Snowy Cathaya became the first team to enter the semifinals!
However, this was even stranger than before . What’s with Lin Yixin? Why was her reaction speed so bad? She was even slower than me in the past . She was at least 1 . 5 seconds late to move, else she would’ve easily escaped the range of Ice Dragon Howl, it had a very long cast time!
……
I walked to Lin Yixin and smiled . “Yiyi, what’s wrong with you today? Why are you so desperate?”
Lin Yixin breathed out, then smiled back . “Nothing, I just… don’t feel well today…”

I leaned forward with a grin . “Yiyi, is it… that time of the month for you?”
Lin Yixin immediately flushed red and glared at me . “None of your business! You seriously can imagine anything…”
As she said that, Lin Yixin raised her first and punched me in the chest hard . “You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
I was stunned, and my chest ached . Lin Yixin’s too heavy-handed!
Still somewhat dazed, I wondered why she sounded kind of bitter . Did it have something to do with me hugging Beiming Xue earlier? Could Lin Yixin . . .
I found it laughable . “Yiyi, you’re so petty!”
Lin Yixin deeply stared at me . A hint of grievance flashed past her beautiful purple eyes as she said faintly, “Actually, I’m not petty…”
I froze, bewildered .
Lin Yixin smiled . She stretched out a snow-white finger and poked at my chestplate . “Go, your people are waiting for you to stabilize their morale . You are in the quarterfinals already, you’d better not get eliminated!”
“Yes!”
I nodded . When I went back, I felt somewhat unsettled . In fact, my heart’s been a mess lately . It would act up every time I saw He Yi or Lin Yixin . Some call it nerves, some call it the emergence of spring, and some may also call it the ripplings of love . Who knows!
……
Beiming Xue laughed lightly . “Boss, you’re just going over to Beauty Lin’s place and accept her teasing?”
I was a tad embarra.s.sed . “What do you mean?”
“Look over there!” Beiming Xue pointed at the spectator stands north . She smiled with pursed lips . Sis Murong Mingyue looks murderous!”
I took a glance and saw Murong Mingyue and He Yi looking our way . He Yi was calm but Murong Mingyue fiercely glared at me with clenched fists, as if what I and Lin Yixin had done was a bit too intimate . Sigh, I’m in trouble again!
It was good that the second round of the quarterfinals was about to start . Peach Garden VS VVS!
This matchup had no suspense . Peach Garden displayed their strength and mightily slaughtered their opponent two times . Even though VVS was by no means weak, they couldn’t resist at all!
Du Thirteen was speechless after he saw the results . “Isn’t VVS too weak? They got 2:0’d so easily . ”
Beiming Xue shook her head . “It’s not VVS that’s too weak, but Peach Garden that’s too strong! Didn’t you notice that Peach Garden’s team coordination was really good? Every member on their team has smooth mechanics and they’ve been controlling the rhythm of the battle since the start . That’s why VVS appeared so weak…”
I stared deeply at Peach Garden’s five-man team . Floating Ice City’s hidden dragons had appeared . This Peach Garden had already become a popular contender for the champions.h.i.+p . They would meet Snowy Cathaya next, and this made me worry for Lin Yixin . Could she win against the powerful Peach Garden in her current state?
I’m afraid her chances aren’t that high!

Quarterfinals Round 3, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls VS G.o.ds of Destruction .
Yet another strong vs strong showdown!
Off-stage, He Yi tightened her fists . Her beautiful eyes closely watched the battle on the stage . She was obviously worried about this compet.i.tion because Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls had never reached this far before . The furthest we made it in Spirit of Grief’s WSL a year ago was Top 128 .
Before I joined Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, I created my own team for the WSL and placed in the Top 16 . I had even destroyed Candlelight Shadow’s team in the Top 32 . But that glory only belonged to the ID Falling Dust, not Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls . I always felt guilty about that . After joining Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, I didn’t bring any honor whatsoever to the guild .
This was my chance . If b.l.o.o.d.y Mercenaries were able to become the champions in Who Will Fight Me, then I’d take my strong team along with me and valiantly return to Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, bringing it glory!
……
At this time, the two teams had already teleported into the arena .
Spring Mud stood at the frontmost position in the Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls team . He raised his sword and coldly snorted at Dominating Heaven Blade . “G.o.ds of Destruction? If you guys are G.o.ds, then I’m killing some G.o.ds today!”
Dominating Heaven Blade smirked . “Ignorant fool!
