nDue to Onyxia’s blinding speed, Flying Tiger King was unable to gain the upper hand during the early phase and was constantly left in the dust. It was an advantageous scenario for Li Yi.

nHowever, as time went on, the situation began to change as the competition required players to follow Flying Tiger· Void Shredder, and not overtake him. Otherwise, with the rapid speed that Onyxia was flying at, all Li Yi had to do was to concentrate on flying and victory would be his for the taking.

nFlying Tiger· Void Shredder slowly caught up to Li Yi. However, the moment he caught up; he did not attack Li Yi. Instead, he shot upwards, made a hard turn, and spurred towards another direction.

nLi Yi was forced to follow him. Otherwise, once a fixed amount of time had passed, the system would automatically fail him.

n“Give chase!”

n“Mortal, do not order me! The mighty black dragon does not require your commands!”

nAlthough Li Yi had completely subjugated Onyxia, her attitude towards him did not change much. She still did not respect Li Yi.

n“I’ll show you the might of mortals if you lose this match!”

n“Roar—”

nOnyxia accelerated and gave chase. It was at this moment that Flying Tiger· Void Shredder decided to attack.

n“Shoot at Random!”

nCountless arrows hurtled over, covering a wide area. Fortunately for Li Yi, Onyxia could think for herself. Without even waiting for Li Yi’s orders, she performed her own aerial maneuvers and evaded the hail of arrows.

n“Good job! Keep up the pursuit!”

n“ROAR—”

nSystem Notification: Onyxia’s Affinity towards you has decreased by 10 points.

nLi Yi had already come to a conclusion long ago, that Onyxia was different from the Mermaid Princess, Freya. The more he praised Freya, the quicker her Affinity grew. Conversely, Onyxia would lose Affinity towards Li Yi the more he praised her.

n“Meteor Arrow!”

nFlying Tiger· Void Shredder drew his Purple Quality Bow and assaulted Li Yi relentlessly. His attacks ignored mounts and targeted only players.

nFlying Tiger King’s sudden shift in directions was becoming more and more aggressive. It would suddenly ascend and suddenly descend, and at times, it would abruptly jerk to the left or right. Combining that with Flying Tiger· Void Shredder’s relentless attacks, Onyxia was quickly finding it hard to catch up.

nShe was barely managing to keep up, and she could drop out at any time!

n“What’s up with you? What about your black dragon pride? Where did it go? You can’t even beat a little tiger, what a joke of a black dragon you are!”

nPlayers were unable to attack Flying Tiger· Void Shredder, and as such, Li Yi could only reprimand Onyxia to rile up her emotions.

n“Hold your tongue, mortal! I have heard enough!”

nOnyxia growled with rage, and she accelerated once more in an attempt to catch up to Flying Tiger King.

n“You’re so weak. You really are a disappointing black dragon.”

nSystem Notification: Onyxia’s Affinity towards you has risen by 10 points.

n‘F*ck!’

n‘She’s a scumbag!’

nOnyxia had just caught up to Flying Tiger· Void Shredder when Flying Tiger King gave a howl of rage. Its body warped into a white ray of light and vanished the next instant.

nIt was Flying Tiger King’s signature move, Mighty Tiger Impact, a godly skill which doubled its flight speed!

n“Head to the left!” Li Yi shouted.

nOnyxia hesitated for a moment, but she still followed Li Yi’s command and flew towards the west. After ten or so seconds later, they spotted Flying Tiger King.

nThey really did fly to the left. Li Yi’s intuition had been correct!

nHalfway through the competition, Flying Tiger · Void Shredder started to ramp up the difficulty. He constantly switched shooting styles and activated Flying Tiger King’s special skill every now and then, which instantly left Li Yi in the dust. Fortunately, Li Yi’s intuition was very accurate, and he had never been wrong. Otherwise, he would have lost long ago.

nNaturally, Onyxia’s flying SPD had come into play as well. The black dragon chick was enraged, and her flying SPD had risen to 400%. Had it not been for her breakneck speed, it was unlikely that she would catch up to Flying Tiger King.

nAs the competition approached its final 30 seconds, Li Yi poured in all his focus to the competition.

nOthers did not understand, but not him. The final 30 seconds of the competition was actually the most crucial period.

nWith a white flash, Flying Tiger King accelerated with Mighty Tiger Impact, and Li Yi quickly issued his order. “Head left, then right, then left again, and then reverse.”

nDuring the last 30 seconds, Flying Tiger King would unleash a series of Mighty Tiger Impacts to switch directions. It did not take much to lose the competition, as failure to catch up to two of the impacts was all it took to count as a loss.

nThere was zero room for error, and one wrong call would result in the immediate loss of the competition.

nThankfully, Onyxia did not throw any tantrum and had followed Li Yi’s instruction to the letter. She flew to the left, then right, then left again, and then backward. After all those stunts, she managed to catch up to Flying Tiger King.

nFlying Tiger King slowly crossed the finish line and nodded his head to Li Yi in praise.

nA gold sparkling Achievement Panel popped out…

nCongratulations! You have attained the achievement, Soaring Aspirations and are rewarded with the title, Special Class Flying Instructor. Challenge Grade: SS. Rewards: STR Seed x1, 20 Skill Points, and 10% dungeon progress!

nHe had received 20 Skill Points all at once, and his dungeon progress had soared by 10% as well. The rewards for clearing the challenge this time were out of this world!

n“You’re pretty strong, but you’re still a tad weaker than me.” That was the evaluation that Flying Tiger · Void Shredder gave Li Yi after completing the challenge.

nThe highest challenge grade possible was SSS, and the reason why Flying Tiger · Void Shredder had said so was that Li Yi had only attained SS.

nAfter completing all of Soaring Aspiration’s tests, Li Yi could challenge any flight instructor of his choosing to update his records. However, that no longer interested him.

nAfter all, he knew that challenging them again would not yield much of an improvement because of Onyxia’s instability. He could attain good results when she was obedient, but if she decided to disobey him, she would not hesitate to fly west even though Li Yi told her to fly east.

nHe would need to wait until they managed to come to an agreement before challenging the instructors again.

nAmber Sword Heart, Night Moon, and the rest of the spectators had watched the whole process from the beginning to the end. There were plenty of them who had recorded the process as well and had uploaded the video to the official page as well.

nIt was truly a spectacular battle. Legendary against Legendary, the flying competition was bound to be recorded in the books.

n“Head back down!”

nOnyxia gradually descended onto the ground.

n“Mogu! Mogu!”

nThe clingy mogu cat was back again. It was dizzy from catching up, but thankfully, it was tenacious. Using its keen sense of smell, it had located Li Yi once again.

nThe area below was a campsite, and within it, plenty of NPC businessmen carried out their activities. They provided aid and assistance to traveling players.

nLi Yi had various multi-functional robots on him, so when it came to repairing equipment, he had no need to look for NPCs. Whenever he needed some repairs to be done, he could just bring out his robots.

nThe scene before him was as desolate as before. NPCs from the Church of Light and Cursing Sect were scattered about, and the battle between the Light and Dark was approaching its end. The two camps had already secured victory, and as of that moment, the King of Souls was the only threat left that had yet to be conquered.

n“Selling 32% dungeon guide! Does anyone want it? 500 Gold Coins and it’s yours! If you don’t have any money, we can exchange dungeon guides as well, provided that yours is above 30%!”

n“Selling dungeon progress experience for burning tanks! Only 100 Gold Coins!”

n“Selling 51% dungeon progress experience! No money required! I only request an exchange with someone who has the same level of dungeon progress! Anyone who’s interested, please message me, those who aren’t, please leave!”

n“Selling a gorgeous lady! She’s plump, petite, and has white skin and big boobs! 1,000 Gold Coins and she’s yours for tonight…”

nThe yelling of players rang out frequently within the campsite.

nPlayers were not tireless war gods within King of Pantheon. As players battle for a prolonged period of time, they would start to get weary. However, unlike the fatigue in real life, a player’s fatigue could be remedied after meditating for a while.

nThe campsite was built based on the need for players to ‘rest’. After a period of development, the campsite had evolved into a trading ground as well.

nSome traded equipment, whereas some traded dungeon progress. Some traded materials, and there were even some who… traded their bodies…

nLi Yi dismissed Onyxia, kept away his bow and walked into the camp.

nThough Li Yi had already received Little Elf from the Magical Realm’s dungeon progress knowledge, there were limits on how much two players could experience. The only way to overcome this limit is to discuss his game experience with other players so that he could advance even further.

nThere were many tents within the campsite, and players from all three Major Continents were congregated there. Though there were tussles every once in a while, as a whole, the place was quite harmonious, as PKs were forbidden…

n“You there, do you need a lady’s service? It only costs 1,000 Gold Coins for the full package~”

nLi Yi had just walked into the campsite when out stepped a female player clad in bright red clothing to greet him. She seductively blocked Li Yi’s path.

n“No thanks.” Li Yi furrowed his brow and skirted around the lady to proceed onward.

n“800 Gold Coins is fine as well. Fine, 500! 500! Tch, you miser!”

nThe red-clad lady cursed sharply and gave up on Li Yi. She proceeded to seduce her next target.

nLi Yi walked into the biggest tent at the center of the campsite and offered a trade with the players there.

nHis dungeon progress was no longer low, as completing Soaring Aspirations had provided him with 10% dungeon progress. Piling it up with his previous accomplishments, he was now at 46%, which was considered the middle level of dungeon progress.

nLi Yi was not lacking money, and as such, the only requirement for his trade was an exchange of dungeon experience with someone who had the same dungeon progress.

nAfter setting up his auto speaker function successfully, Li Yi walked to a corner of the tent to rest. Pretty soon, someone had contacted him.

n“Would you accept a dungeon progress of 45%? I can top up the rest with money. How does ten thousand Gold Coins sound?”

n‘Topping up the missing 1% with ten thousand Gold Coins? That’s pretty daring? Who’s this guy?’

nLi Yi checked the name of the person who contacted him, and his face immediately sank.

nThe name had a bad*ss ring to it, he was called — Tyrant Sword King the Fifth!

nLi Yi had indeed known him. He was one of the Guild Masters of Drifting Snow Alliance’s branches, and he was the one who chased Li Yi the most relentlessly back in his past life.

n“What’s the hold-up? Is it too little? I’ll add another ten thousand then.” Seeing that Li Yi did not answer, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth took the initiative to increase his offer.

n“Yeah, it’s too little. Very, very little.” Li Yi answered coldly. Be it in his past life or the present, he still could not explain the surge of anger that rose whenever he saw Tyrant Sword King the Fifth.

nSpeaking of Tyrant Sword King the Fifth, he was actually quite handsome, had a good family background, and his spending sprees could compare to Brother Windcloud Nine’s. Being the young, rich, and generous individual he was, would he find it easy to get around in the game?

nIndeed he would. Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was considered as the player with the best personality in the game.

nHe had no flaws, was generous, upheld justice, had plenty of friends, and was handsome. The punk was basically the epitome of a perfect man.

n“Friend, how about 50,000 Gold Coins? Your progress list includes five tasks that I lack. Truth be told, I’m actually aiming for those five tasks.”

nLi Yi collected himself and smirked, “I won’t sell it even if you offer me 100,000!”

n…
