Chapter 40: Pa Pa, face slapped. (1/2)

If he wanted to try it, then they will try it.

In regard to Kang Shengzhe, he had never cowered from a duel, and it was even more unlikely to happen when [Liang Liang] was the one who took the initiative to issue the challenge. In a space where the other party could not reach, his lips lifted alongside his good mood.

[don’t want to move]: –〖Stuck Out Tongue〗Don’t cry when you lose.

Little Angel Liang Liang did not reply and concurrently, an invitation for a one against one on the Mohist School’s Mechanical Bridge arrived. Kang Shengzhe pressed accept and chose Li Bai without any hesitation when they entered the hero selection stage.

PKPKPKPK. Either way, there was no possibility of him losing; KK’s Li Bai has never lost to anyone.

As there were in the loading screen, Kang Shengzhe abruptly remembered that he was supposed to play an open mic rank game with Liang Liang but he gave up on the idea soon after because there was no harm in pushing it back.

Truthfully speaking, even though he had a vested interest in Liang Liang’s voice, he was not anxious just because he could not hear it. His reasoning was as such: as long as he could play together with Liang Liang, it was already enough of a treat.

Kang Shengzhe sincerely felt that he could feel the person himself – no matter if it was disposition or who he inherently was – from his words and his playstyle.

There were deviations whenever they were conversing, but there were no such occurrences in games; as they played more games together, what kind of person the other party was became increasingly defined. In turn, his feelings towards Liang Liang as he continued to interact with him, too, became more and more indisputable, and the tacit understanding they had grew by the day.

That sort of feeling was… fantastic.

However, the feelings he had as they played games together was one thing and what determined a victory or defeat in a duel was another. Kang Shengzhe personally had a strong desire to win, and the possibility where he would lose a game on purpose was non-existent. Furthermore, his opponent was [Liang Liang], and he was not in the position to purposefully throw.

The sound of landing rang out and the game officially began. The system made an amicable and rousing announcement: “Welcome to King’s Glory!”

Compared to the times where he had to broadcast, Kang Shengzhe was far more excited. He changed out of his lazy posture and straightened his waist, flattening out his thick and broad back. His fingers flew across the screen and tapped on the four keys quickly.

During their confrontation in the afternoon, Kang Shengzhe had not gone all-out; not because he belittled him, but more so because he and [Liang Liang] were testing each other. Thus, he did not set the rhythm. This time around, he immediately seized the moment he reached level four and unleashed the full extent of his hand speed to try and suppress his opponent unilaterally.

Li Bai exchanged blows with Gong Sunli at the middle of the narrow path, as adversaries who were locked in an unavoidable confrontation whenever they came face to face. The Millennium-old Fox and Flower Dancing Lady were standing far apart and facing one another in one moment, and in the next, without a pause, they immediately jerked forward.

Kang Shengzhe pursued and attacked with all his strength and with every intention to bully, his flurry of abilities akin to a dance of shadows and swords. Struck by one of sword-wielding shadows, Gong Sunli’s health dropped by half, and she moved back while casting her first ability to open up the distance further. And Kang Shengzhe backed into his own tower as well, ending the short skirmish.

In the all chat, Kang Shengzhe’s words emerged.

[don’t want to move]: — Come again.

One-on-one battles could agitate the emotions of the players more than group battles, and Kang Shengzhe’s mood was rarely this high. While he was controlling Li Bai, he noticed that Little Angel Liang Liang’s Gong Sunli was pacing left and right as if he was in the middle of contemplating something.

A rare reply from [Little Angel Liang Liang] appeared in the text channel: — Come.

One word, but when it landed, it was not soundless. Kang Shengzhe became invigorated again and went up to bully.
