“Roar!”

The Firelord that was dozing off just moments ago suddenly bellowed the instant Fengxi died. Its body abruptly leapt into the air, condensing into a gigantic fireball that hurled itself towards Li Yi and his team.

This was the Firelord’s finishing move. The casting speed was quick, and so was the fireball’s flight speed. The shockwave of the attack also had an effective radius of up to 50 yards.

The same damage value appeared above the heads of the three of them including Li Yi.

Jiaojiao sprinted forward and waved at Shoot Until Daybreak. “Death’s Grasp!”

With the support of her Lord of Disaster Greatsword, the success rate of Death’s Grasp was increased drastically. Shoot Until Daybreak attempted to evade it using Pseudocide, but he was still dragged towards Jiaojiao although he was already lying on the ground.

Thwack thwack thwack thwack!

“Amplification! Fury Assault!”

Li Yi and Unending Unmatched worked together with Jiaojiao and attacked simultaneously. With the three cooperating with each other, it only took them 4 seconds to kill Shoot Until Daybreak.

Fengxi was still blabbering while he lay on the ground. “You’ve taken too much time! If it was me, it wouldn’t take more than a second.”

“Charge!”

Unending Unmatched clutched at his shield tightly while he pounced at Faded Cloud Breeze, moving so fast that his silhouette disappeared in a flash.

Wham!

His Charge successfully hit its target. Faded Cloud Breeze had entered a Disoriented state.

“True sight!”

Faded Cloud Breeze cast a unique skill to remove the Disorient status. Then, he seized the opportunity while Unending Unmatched was still trapped in hit recovery to quickly back away to a safe distance.

“Vine Entanglement!”

Faded Cloud Breeze pointed at Unending Unmatched with his long staff before casting a special skill once again to ‘freeze’ Unending Unmatched at the same spot.

“Roar! Roar!”

Meanwhile, the Firelord rained furious and fiery punches as a form of attack. Vine Entanglement’s special effect was similar to Retribution Windstorm’s, only it was more powerful. While entangled, the target would not only be unable to move but also unable to use any special skills. However, it did have its shortcomings; in contrast to Retribution Windstorm, Vine Entanglement could only last for 5 seconds.

Unending Unmatched did not have much of his HP left before that, so when Jiaojiao was just about to rush towards him with her greatsword, he was already lying dead on the ground.

Both Unending Unmatched and Fengxi had died in the same area. Fengxi sighed again, “You’re too impatient. Why did you Charge forward so quickly? Wouldn’t it be great if you had waited for them and attacked simultaneously? Aih, why are you trying to pretend to be stronger than you actually are.”

Unending Unmatched was already annoyed in the first place, so he understandably grew more infuriated the moment he had heard that. He scolded, “Can you just stop being so f*cking pretentious? Would you actually die if you stopped?”

“Manners, pay attention to your manners.”

“F*ck!”

Thankfully, corpses do not have the ability to move, otherwise Unending Unmatched would be choking Fengxi to death.

“Fusion!”

Faded Cloud Breeze pointed at the Firelord with the long staff in his hand when he saw Jiaojiao and Li Yi hot on his heels. His entire body flew into the Firelord.

It was a Summoner’s special skill to fuse with his own pet.

Faded Cloud Breeze and the Firelord had fused together, and the Firelord doubled in size in a blink of an eye. Additionally, its attack power increased by 50%, and all of its Skill Cooldowns had been reset.

“Berserk Inferno!”

Faded Cloud Breeze yelled and leaped into the sky. A gigantic fireball quickly condensed.

This finishing move of the Firelord’s could only be used once every thirty minutes. However, since Faded Cloud Breeze had used Fusion to reset all Skill Cooldowns, he could now use the skill again within such a short amount of time.

If Faded Cloud Breeze were allowed to cast the Berserk Inferno again, Li Yi would 100% die because he had less than half of his Health remaining. He had also depleted the Violent Bear Protection status, and the Life Blood skill that was given to him due to his Apothecarist class could only heal a minuscule amount of his HP. It was basically impossible for him to withstand the assault…

“Evil Piercing Arrow!”

Thwack!

Li Yi kept himself calm even when he had seen Faded Cloud Breeze leaping into the air. His Evil Piercing Arrow was fired towards the enemy the moment a channeling bar appeared above the latter’s head when he had just managed to condense a large fireball.

The Evil Piercing Arrow was not a high-damage attack, but the Archer skill had one frankly overpowered ability. It could dispel all buffs active on the target in one go, granting it a similar effect to a Summoner’s Dark Song.

Thus, Faded Cloud Breeze had failed to cast the Berserk Inferno, but the more tragic fact was that Li Yi’s Evil Piercing Arrow has forcefully dispelled the buff that activated due to the fusion between him and his Pet.

Smash!

Faded Cloud Breeze crashed to the ground, losing more than 5000HP. He was lucky he did not die on the spot after falling from such a great height without his fusion with the Firelord.

With her greatsword, Jiaojiao marched forward and slashed repeatedly at him. With Li Yi’s persistent shooting from behind, Faded Cloud Breeze had died without any suspense.

Fengxi said, “Your fight was an utter failure. If I was in your shoes, I would’ve managed to kill him within a second the moment he had fallen onto the ground.”

Jiaojiao was not pleased by the remark. She used her greatsword to point at him before chiding, “Yeah, you’re so great. If you’re so amazing, why are you lying dead on the ground?”

“I went to answer a call just now and didn’t pay much attention to the combat. I was already dead the moment I shifted my focus back here.”

“Yeah, try to pretend as much as you want. Go on.”

JIaojiao could not be bothered to entertain him anymore. She picked up her greatsword and left.

Brother Windcloud Nine and Ah Ye were still fighting each other. However, after such a long time, the difference in ability between the two was starkly displayed.

Brother Windcloud Nine initially had 250,000 HP, but he had approximately 6000 HP remaining. On the other hand, Ah Ye, the yellow-robed Priest still had a full HP bar of 17,000.

However, this does not mean that Brother Windcloud Nine was on the verge of losing the fight. After all, all Paladins have an exceedingly powerful skill that could fully heal them in an instant – Holy Healing Skill.

Brother Windcloud Nine has yet to use his Holy Healing Skill.

Ah Ye, the yellow-robed Priest was a powerhouse. Even though his Skill Points were mainly used for his Light Priest class, he had also learnt numerous skills of a Curse Priest. Basically, he was a double-class player.

His situation was similar to Li Yi, who had received many Skill Points as rewards for achieving numerous First Kills in the game. Thus, Li Yi’s Skill Points were mainly used to specialize in the Assassination Path, while also putting a secondary focus on both the Trap and Pet Path. Basically, he was developing three paths at the same time. These types of players were widely known as the strongest in the game.

However, due to the characteristics of the class, Priests rarely went for the double-class or triple-class approach. There was a simple reason behind this. By going for the Light path, they would be qualified as major healers in a party; by going for the Dark path, they would instead become a powerful Spellcasting DPS. However, if they were to go for both Dark and Light paths simultaneously, it would greatly impact the power of the skills from both classes.

Light and Dark were two vastly antagonistic powers. How these polar opposites be combined?

Thus, the results for a Priest that develops three classes at once was that all their skills suffered a 60% decrease in power.

The penalty of developing three classes so severe that it would render an account useless if the player refused to reset their Skill Point allocations.

However, a double-class Priests only suffered a 30% reduction in all skills. Playing this way was still possible with a full set of legendary equipment. That was the choice of Ah Ye, the yellow-robed Priest.

The tactic used by Ah Ye to fight Brother Windcloud Nine was simple. First, he had given Brother Nine a Powerful Curse causing him to continuously lose HP before running around and casting healing skills on himself. At the same time, he would maintain the Powerful Curse on Brother Nine.

“Holy Healing Skill!”

Jiaojiao came forward to offer her assistance. Brother Windcloud Nine’s HP had fallen to 3000, but with the Holy Healing Skill, his HP had recovered to 250,000 HP.

In the previous life, Brother Windcloud Nine had multiple nicknames, such as Old Windcloud Dog that was given by his enemies, and the Immovable King by his prominent opponents. Besides that, he also had another nickname that was widely recognized by all players – the Ultra HP Bull.

Sister Windcloud Nine was standing just below the stage with her hands around her mouth. She shouted with all her might, “Hubby, you’re amazing! I believe that you can still hold on. Do your best, do your best!”

Her timid voice has such a strong penetrating force that everyone in the arena heard her words.

“Manners, be careful of your manners. Excuse me, can everyone please make way? Let me pass. Ah, f*ck, who’s the mean person that stepped on my hand?”

Just when Sister Windcloud Nine was cheering Brother Nine on, she heard a sharp and high-pitched voice around her. She looked left and right in an attempt to find the source when suddenly a human head appeared from below her cloak. She was so shocked that she shrieked and jumped far away from her original position.

“Excuse me, excuse me. Mind your manners, stop scolding others, d*mn it.”

It was a person that could immediately elicit others to commit homicide upon him the moment he opened his mouth to speak. No one but Leader Scum that had that power.

How could the Huashan Guild be left out when the Brawl King Tournament was going on?

Scumbag Wang had arrived at the venue early on with his 800 subordinates. However, he did not pay much attention to the tournament. Instead, he went on all fours the moment he stepped into the venue and crawled around in the arena.

Burrow, burrow, burrow, burrow…

After the system change, strangers were no longer allowed to touch each other. This had caused Scumbag Wang to feel dejected for a very long time, but he was not an ordinary joe. Thus, he had quickly discovered a new solution, which was to burrow under a woman’s skirt and lift his head up to look…

“Why are you behaving this way? Why are you burrowing under me all the time!”

Scumbag Wang had lowered his head the moment Sister Windcloud Nine had run away and immediately rushed towards another lady Priest. However, the lady that he met this time was not a timid one. Instead, she reprimanded him loudly.

“You’re in my way. Why else would anyone want to burrow under your pants? Do you think you have a golden lining in there?”

A Scumbag will truly be a scumbag. He did not even blush even when he committed such shameless acts and confidently defended his actions.

“F*ck off, you trash!” The lady Priest had left angrily.

Scumbag Wang’s expression was unaffected. He lowered his head and said, “Excuse me, give way, give way. Be mindful of your manners…”

…

On the stage, Li Yi and Jiaojiao had worked together with Brother Windcloud Nine and reduced Ah Ye, the yellow-robed Priest’s HP to around 6000. He was going to collapse soon.

Li Yi’s Evil Piercing Arrow only had minimal effect on Ah Ye. The reason was simple; the Priest class has too many HP healing skills. There were more than 30 skills ranging from minor to major heals to group healing. Meanwhile, his Evil Piercing Arrow could only be used once every now and then. Even after he had dispelled one healing skill, Ah Ye could immediately use another healing skill, his progress entirely unaffected by Li Yi’s disruptions.

When Jiaojiao used Dark Binding, Ah Ye would use his special skill to cancel out its effects. When she used Death’s Grasp, Ah Ye would use Holy Light Radiance to escape.

The three of them were kited around by a great healer Priest, and neither side had yet to overcome the other after 5 minutes had passed…

Li Yi’s God Mode was still on cooldown. Initially, he had wanted to use combo hits to eliminate the opponent, but when he was about to start the combo, he found out that the man had increased his hit recovery to 100 points.

A Priest class had a natural hit recovery of 30 points. By increasing his hit recovery to 100 points, it basically meant that he would never have any follow-up effects no matter what major impact was to hit him. In other words, combo hits were useless against him.

“Repelling Arrow Skill!”

Thwack!

Li Yi shot out a Repelling Arrow with a slight shake of his hand, accurately aiming at Ah Ye’s chest. If the target was an ordinary player with a normal hit recovery, the player would definitely take a few steps back involuntarily.

However, that did not happen to Ah Ye…

With a hit recovery of 100, he did not have any other effects from the arrow aside from losing his HP.

“Holy Light Illumination!”

With a brief swing of his staff, Ah Ye had used a skill that would continuously heal his HP for 5 minutes.

“Group Curse!”

Images of skulls with black smoke appeared above the heads of Li Yi, Jiaojiao, and Brother Windcloud Nine respectively. Their Health started to drop non-stop…
