Fengxi vanished using Stealth. Meanwhile, Faded Cloud Breeze ordered the Firelord to spread a sea of flames around them and waited for Fengxi's next move.
The last time he crossed paths with Fengxi, his Firelord's movements had grown erratic. Due to this, Faded Cloud Breeze was wary of Fengxi.
"Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!"
Within the sea of flames, the glint of a blade swinging about could be seen. Faded Cloud Breeze gave a low grunt and collapsed onto the ground…
"KO!"
A mere 18 seconds was all it took for Fake Fengxi to finish off Faded Cloud Breeze. When the audience below saw Fengxi flipping his long hair nonchalantly as he walked out unscathed from the sea of flames, they were stunned.
"F*ck me…"
"F*ck!"
"F*ck!"
"Holy…"
"Holy sh*t! What the mother*ckin hell is going on?"
"One-hit kill?"
The audience below were boiling with fervor.
Nobody could have imagined the match being decided so quickly. Furthermore, nobody expected that the victor would be the nameless Fengxi.
Even Scumbag Wang was taken aback. He hurriedly asked the real Fengxi, "Third Brother, who's stronger, you or the fake?"
The real Fengxi calmly replied, "If it was me up there, he wouldn't even have a chance to summon his pet."
"Ohh~," nodded Scumbag Wang.
…
Faded Cloud Breeze continued lying on the ground. He had already received the 'Resurrection' command ages ago, but he paid no heed to it. He still refused to rise.
His loss was illogical. He could not figure out how Fengxi was unaffected by his Firelord's Sea of Fire.
Faded Cloud Breeze demanded, "Why were you unharmed by Sea of Fire? Tell me!"
Fake Fengxi placed his hands behind his back, looked upwards, and said a phrase that deserved a good beating. "I'll leave it for you to guess."
5 minutes later, the second round began.
"I'll use Stealth to approach you, then I'll attack from your left, using Chisel, Scrape, followed by the coup de grace, Split. If you still aren't dead by then, I'll throw in a bomb."
At the start of the battle, Fake Fengxi nonchalantly announced his plan of attack.
Once again, Faded Cloud Breeze summoned his Firelord. This time, however, he immediately fused with it and ran towards Fake Fengxi.
Fake Fengxi disappeared using Stealth.
At that moment, the Firelord was wholly under Faded Cloud Breeze's control. Since Thieves were unable to use any dispel skills, Fengxi was unable to dispel the Fusion, just as Li Yi would have done.
"Sea of Fire Spell!"
The Firelord's mouth opened wide, and it covered the ground in flames.
[−1234]
[−1112]
[−1092]
A string of damage numbers appeared from within Sea of Fire, and the silhouette of Fake Fengxi was revealed while he was still in Stealth Mode.
"Haha, let's see how you kill me this time!"
Faded Cloud Breeze extended his giant flaming hand towards Fake Fengxi.
"Woosh!"
Fake Fengxi did not move a single muscle and allowed himself to be caught by Faded Cloud Breeze. Faded Cloud Breeze's grip increasingly tightened…
Spurt…Spurt…Spurt…Spurt…
The health bar on Fake Fengxi's head declined rapidly, zeroing out in no time. By the time Faded Cloud Breeze hurled him onto the ground, he had already been dead for quite some time.
Faded Cloud Breeze dispelled his Fusion and sneered at Fengxi's corpse. However, suddenly, the brilliant glint of a blade could be seen coming from his left…
"Woosh! Woosh! Woosh! Woosh…"
"Ka-boom!"
A magnificent chain of combo attacks had been unleashed. Since Faded Cloud Breeze was still alive after the final attack, a bomb was hurled towards him as a finishing touch.
Everything was according to Fengxi's plan. There were no deviations whatsoever.
Faded Cloud Breeze was lying on the ground once more. Meanwhile, Fake Fengxi was staring into the sky as he breathed a gentle sigh…
"Why were there two Fengxis?"
"It's Dummy Spell, one of the skills of Explosive Thieves."
"The first one was an immobile fake. This punk is quite witty, I'd say."
"That's dirty! That's so f*cking dirty!"
Once again, the audience below was in an uproar.
Faded Cloud Breeze continued lying on the ground, remaining motionless for quite some time. He could not come to terms with his loss.
"Listen, guys, listen! It's not that I'm strong, it's just that my opponent is too weak."
While walking down the stage, Fake Fengxi exclaimed with his hands before his chest.
When Faded Cloud Breeze heard his words, he felt as if his heart had been cut by a knife.
In a brawl, one must never harm the others face; when insulting someone, one must never expose their shortcomings, achieving victory was already a good enough feat, as it showcased one's ability. However, to rub salt in the wounds of the opponent that has already lost was just… plain outrageous.
Jiaojiao muttered to herself, "I didn't think that he was that strong. No wonder he always speaks like that during our party battles."
Li Yi stared intensely at Fake Fengxi, and he suddenly thought of someone.
"Ignoring the words said by the arrogant c*nt, this punk actually sounds a lot like that thief's…"
Faded Cloud Breeze was out of the tournament. As of that moment, two of the Invincible Continent's players had advanced, while Jiaojiao was the only one who had been eliminated.
With a long face, Jiaojiao sulked, "Tch, if only I fought someone else, then I could've stood a chance."
…
The fifth tournament bracket had been announced. It was a battle between Night Moon and Brother Simon. Consequently, the sixth tournament bracket had also been determined, it would be a battle between Brother Windcloud Nine against Li Yi.
After seeing the name list, Jiaojiao shook her head. "Lil Yi'zi, victory is yours…"
"Why's that?"
"Brother Windcloud Nine only has his bulkiness going for him. His skill doesn't even come close to mine, so how can he win?"
Li Yi chuckled, "Want to bet on it?"
"I refuse. Do you take me for an idiot?" Jiaojiao shook her head in a cute manner. "If I bet on you winning, then you'll purposely throw the match; and if I bet against you, there's no chance of Brother Windcloud Nine winning. So, no matter which side I pick, I'm destined to lose. As such, I. Refuse. To. Bet."
"When did you become so smart?"
"I've always been this smart."
"Hmm, but doesn't big boobs equate to a lack of brains…"
"Ouch!"
Li Yi had set his in-game pain settings to zero, but such settings do not exist in reality. Since Jiaojiao was currently beside him in real life, he had nowhere to run as she pinched him.
Back on the stage, the battle between Night Moon and Brother Simon had begun.
Both players were Violent Warriors, and as such, their match was very fast paced. They ran around hacking at each other and constantly spammed spells. A mere 20 seconds later, the first round had been decided.
Since Night Moon's HP was slightly lower, the result of their direct face-offs had resulted in Brother Simon's victory.
The second round was now underway. This time, Night Moon was more cautious. Her movements were more agile, and she employed a counterattack strategy against Brother Simon. So long as her opponent did not attack, she would not lash out. All she did was to patiently wait for a chance to strike.
At last, an opportunity had presented itself to Night Moon. Brother Simon leaped up to use Mountain-crushing Strike, and she responded by using Fury Explosion. Once she endured Brother Simon's attack, she launched a combo attack of her own.
Brother Simon had lost.
In the third round, Night Moon maintained her attitude from the previous round whereas Brother Simon had grown impatient and launched various pre-emptive attacks. In the end, another opportunity presented itself, and Night Moon finished her opponent off with a string of combo attacks.
All three rounds were a clean sweep, and they resulted in Brother Simon's silent departure and Night Moon's advancement.
Only 6 would advance from the initial 12, and it was finally time for the day's final match.
The battle between Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine.
"Break a leg, hubby! Good luck!"
The innocent Sister Windcloud Nine was already shouting from her platform, whereas Jiaojiao remained silent with her hands holding her chin up.
Li Yi privately messaged Jiaojiao, "Motherf*cker, why aren't you shouting?"
"Cause I'm not an idiot."
"Sigh…"
"Good luck Hubby! Good luck Hubby!" Sister Windcloud Nine was highly energetic.
…
Though Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine were friends, the Brawl King Tournament prided itself in a fair contest of skill. One's success or loss in this tournament was a matter of pride, and as such, Li Yi would never go easy on Brother Windcloud Nine. The same was true for Brother Windcloud Nine.
Before the battle began, the display panel of the audiences listed down the equipment of both players.
Naturally, the equipment was displayed in a fashion similar to that of a Divine Looking Glass. All the audience could see were the equipment's name and stats, with the special skills obscured.
"Dark Wing really isn't carrying anything…"
"I see that."
"Tch, what's going on? Can he even win without any equipment?"
"Hard to tell. However, I feel that that Fengxi guy from before was stronger."
"Yeah…"
Even before Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine's match began, the chattering of the audience carried on endlessly.
"Good luck Dark Wing! Good luck Dark Wing!"
The battle had begun, but the system was still unable to prevent Sister Windcloud Nine's child-like voice from leaking through. However, this time, she was not cheering for her husband, instead, she was cheering for Dark Wing.
Back on the stage, Brother Windcloud Nine's face contorted into an ugly expression. It was only natural for a man to feel infuriated when their wife cheered for another man.
Feeling awkward, Li Yi turned back to look at Sister Windcloud Nine.
"Good luck hubby! Good luck Dark Wing!"
Down below, Sister Windcloud Nine's shouts were growing more exuberant. She alternated between cheering for her husband and Dark Wing, which threw the players down below into confusion.
"What's their relationship?"
"You didn't know? It's a relationship of two males and one female…"
"Th-That's too brutal."
"That can't be it, can it? Sister Windcloud Nine looks so pure after all."
"What would you know, you dumbo! The purer a woman looks, the more lustful their thoughts."
…
"Thud! Thud!"
Li Yi fired two arrows, claiming the first move against Brother Windcloud Nine.
Brother Windcloud Nine raised his shield to block, and two 'clangs' could be heard. Both arrowheads were deflected away, but there were cracks beginning to form on the shield.
The special effect, Armor Strip of Li Yi's Orange Quality Bow was extremely formidable. From those two arrows alone, the shield's durability had plummeted by 40%.
"Thud! Thud! Thud!"
Li Yi constantly fired arrows as he backpedaled, causing Brother Windcloud Nine to give chase with his shield raised.
10 seconds later, the shield in Brother Windcloud's hand was no more, and after another thirty seconds, Brother Windcloud's shield had vanished. Another 30 seconds later, Brother Windcloud Nine was lying dead on the floor.
Even with 500,000 HP, Brother Windcloud Nine was unable to endure Li Yi's DEF-ignoring attacks. From start to finish, Li Yi had not lost a single point of HP and he had defeated Brother Windcloud Nine while unscathed.
"Good luck Hubby! Good luck Hubby!" Below the stage, Sister Windcloud Nine was no longer cheering for Dark Wing. Instead, she had completely directed her cheers to her husband.
The second round began not long after, and Brother Windcloud Nine immediately flung his shield the moment the battle began.
[Holy Shield's Pursuit: Exclusive skill of Holy Shield Paladins. Hurls the shield in hand at a faraway target. In addition to dealing damage, the shield also causes the target to enter 5 seconds of Disorientation (Max level: 20, prolongs the Disorient state by 15 seconds). Cooldown time: 5 minutes.]
Li Yi was struck by the 'flying shield', and he lumbered around with his body swaying. Overjoyed, Brother Windcloud Nine rushed ahead and cast Holy light Impact
.
[Blind! Disorient!]
Brother Windcloud Nine went behind Li Yi and raised Blazing Judgment in his hands up high.
Blazing Judgment's special effects were extremely terrifying, as it enabled normal attacks to fire orbs of light, which dealt sky-high damage. Any main tanks who got their hands on the sword would be able to double their offensive prowess.
After taking multiple blows, Li Yi's health had been halved. Consequently, he collapsed onto the ground using Pseudocide and avoided Brother Windcloud Nine's follow-up attacks.
"Thud! Thud! Thud!"
Li Yi constantly leaped backward while firing and kept a fixed distance between himself and Brother Windcloud Nine as he kited him around the map.
Not long after, Brother Windcloud Nine was sprinting nakedly once again…
"KO!"
The match was over, and Li Yi was the victor.
…Self-explanatory Chinese saying.

Since Jiaojiao was currently beside him in real life, he had nowhere to run as she pinched him.Back on the stage, the battle between Night Moon and Brother Simon had begun.Both players were Violent Warriors, and as such, their match was very fast paced. They ran around hacking at each other and constantly spammed spells. A mere 20 seconds later, the first round had been decided.Since Night Moon's HP was slightly lower, the result of their direct face-offs had resulted in Brother Simon's victory.The second round was now underway. This time, Night Moon was more cautious. Her movements were more agile, and she employed a counterattack strategy against Brother Simon. So long as her opponent did not attack, she would not lash out. All she did was to patiently wait for a chance to strike.At last, an opportunity had presented itself to Night Moon. Brother Simon leaped up to use Mountain-crushing Strike, and she responded by using Fury Explosion. Once she endured Brother Simon's attack, she launched a combo attack of her own.Brother Simon had lost.In the third round, Night Moon maintained her attitude from the previous round whereas Brother Simon had grown impatient and launched various pre-emptive attacks. In the end, another opportunity presented itself, and Night Moon finished her opponent off with a string of combo attacks.All three rounds were a clean sweep, and they resulted in Brother Simon's silent departure and Night Moon's advancement.Only 6 would advance from the initial 12, and it was finally time for the day's final match.The battle between Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine."Break a leg, hubby! Good luck!"The innocent Sister Windcloud Nine was already shouting from her platform, whereas Jiaojiao remained silent with her hands holding her chin up.Li Yi privately messaged Jiaojiao, "Motherf*cker, why aren't you shouting?""Cause I'm not an idiot.""Sigh""Good luck Hubby! Good luck Hubby!" Sister Windcloud Nine was highly energetic.Though Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine were friends, the Brawl King Tournament prided itself in a fair contest of skill. One's success or loss in this tournament was a matter of pride, and as such, Li Yi would never go easy on Brother Windcloud Nine. The same was true for Brother Windcloud Nine.Before the battle began, the display panel of the audiences listed down the equipment of both players.Naturally, the equipment was displayed in a fashion similar to that of a Divine Looking Glass. All the audience could see were the equipment's name and stats, with the special skills obscured."Dark Wing really isn't carrying anything""I see that.""Tch, what's going on? Can he even win without any equipment?""Hard to tell. However, I feel that that Fengxi guy from before was stronger.""Yeah"Even before Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine's match began, the chattering of the audience carried on endlessly."Good luck Dark Wing! Good luck Dark Wing!"The battle had begun, but the system was still unable to prevent Sister Windcloud Nine's child-like voice from leaking through. However, this time, she was not cheering for her husband, instead, she was cheering for Dark Wing.Back on the stage, Brother Windcloud Nine's face contorted into an ugly expression. It was only natural for a man to feel infuriated when their wife cheered for another man.Feeling awkward, Li Yi turned back to look at Sister Windcloud Nine."Good luck hubby! Good luck Dark Wing!"Down below, Sister Windcloud Nine's shouts were growing more exuberant. She alternated between cheering for her husband and Dark Wing, which threw the players down below into confusion."What's their relationship?""You didn't know? It's a relationship of two males and one female""Th-That's too brutal.""That can't be it, can it? Sister Windcloud Nine looks so pure after all.""What would you know, you dumbo! The purer a woman looks, the more lustful their thoughts.""Thud! Thud!"Li Yi fired two arrows, claiming the first move against Brother Windcloud Nine.Brother Windcloud Nine raised his shield to block, and two 'clangs' could be heard. Both arrowheads were deflected away, but there were cracks beginning to form on the shield.The special effect, Armor Strip of Li Yi's Orange Quality Bow was extremely formidable. From those two arrows alone, the shield's durability had plummeted by 40%."Thud! Thud! Thud!"Li Yi constantly fired arrows as he backpedaled, causing Brother Windcloud Nine to give chase with his shield raised.10 seconds later, the shield in Brother Windcloud's hand was no more, and after another thirty seconds, Brother Windcloud's shield had vanished. Another 30 seconds later, Brother Windcloud Nine was lying dead on the floor.Even with 500,000 HP, Brother Windcloud Nine was unable to endure Li Yi's DEF-ignoring attacks. From start to finish, Li Yi had not lost a single point of HP and he had defeated Brother Windcloud Nine while unscathed."Good luck Hubby! Good luck Hubby!" Below the stage, Sister Windcloud Nine was no longer cheering for Dark Wing. Instead, she had completely directed her cheers to her husband.The second round began not long after, and Brother Windcloud Nine immediately flung his shield the moment the battle began.Holy Shield's Pursuit: Exclusive skill of Holy Shield Paladins. Hurls the shield in hand at a faraway target. In addition to dealing damage, the shield also causes the target to enter 5 seconds of Disorientation Max level: 20, prolongs the Disorient state by 15 seconds. Cooldown time: 5 minutes.Li Yi was struck by the 'flying shield', and he lumbered around with his body swaying. Overjoyed, Brother Windcloud Nine rushed ahead and cast Holy light Impact.Blind! Disorient!Brother Windcloud Nine went behind Li Yi and raised Blazing Judgment in his hands up high.Blazing Judgment's special effects were extremely terrifying, as it enabled normal attacks to fire orbs of light, which dealt sky-high damage. Any main tanks who got their hands on the sword would be able to double their offensive prowess.After taking multiple blows, Li Yi's health had been halved. Consequently, he collapsed onto the ground using Pseudocide and avoided Brother Windcloud Nine's follow-up attacks."Thud! Thud! Thud!"Li Yi constantly leaped backward while firing and kept a fixed distance between himself and Brother Windcloud Nine as he kited him around the map.Not long after, Brother Windcloud Nine was sprinting nakedly once again"KO!"The match was over, and Li Yi was the victor.Self-explanatory Chinese saying.
