First Place
Frank bellowed in anger, clearly unwilling to let the Mad Dragon Guild win so easily. He glanced at the remaining few players and immediately exclaimed, “Everyone, unleash that skill!”
His words made the players hesitate for a moment, but upon seeing the Guild Master’s resolute gaze, they had no choice but to comply.
“Death Sacrifice!”
Suddenly, a massive magic circle appeared in front of the group of about ten players. To their astonishment, the color of the magic circle was blood-red, and amidst a cacophony of wailing and howling, they were immediately eliminated.
Their bodies did not disappear. Instead, they continuously expanded and transformed within this formation. In an instant, their physical forms grew several times larger, slowly rising as they were influenced by the formation. Now, they were nothing but marionettes in the hands of Frank.
The viewers watching the live broadcast widened their eyes when they saw this. This was Frank’s guild’s ultimate skill.
Zhang Wanshan felt a tinge of regret, as he had initially thought that this skill would be reserved for Star Rebel to utilize. However, it turned out that he ended up using it himself in the end. After all, Star Rebel was simply too formidable to contend with, making it virtually impossible to kill him. Now, in order to defeat the Mad Dragon Guild, Zhang Wanshan could only resort to this last-ditch plan.
However, there was only Frank left in the Saint Martin Guild. Was it still necessary to continue competing?
Frank’s expression on his face revealed madness as he burst into laughter and exclaimed, “Today, I shall let you have a taste of the sacrificial embrace of death!”
Han Xing’s expression was a little sarcastic. “1 thought he was strong, but it turns out that he can’t fight head-on, so he started playing with corpses.”
He glanced at the corpses of the players, who had become neither humans nor ghosts under the refinement of the magic circle. And couldn’t help but feel the formation was incredibly sinister and bizarre.
“Fire Dragon Spell!”
A fire dragon shot towards Frank in an instant. The bodies of the dozen or so players immediately stood in front of him, skillfully dispersing the fire dragon.
“Hold these players down first. 1’11 beat him.”
Han Xing wasn’t using the Lightning Array skill, which didn’t consume much mana. However, the Fourteen Continents and the Double Stream Storm had created such a divide in the terrain.
The proximity of the two guilds’ locations was simply too close, and the lightning array skill had such a wide range that if it were unleashed, both sides would likely suffer damage.
“Lightning Steps.”
Since he couldn’t use the Lightning Array Skill, he decided to engage in close combat instead. The Headless Knight was eager to continue the battle against Han Xing, but to everyone’s surprise, Han Xing summoned the alternate form of the Lightning Sword skill.
The Lightning Sword roared through the air, and with a powerful swing, it cleaved the headless skeleton’s body cleanly in half.
Frank quickly stepped back, but he still got caught in the aftermath and saw the health bar decrease, which infuriated him to the core.
This directly reduced his HP by half. What the fu*k was that?
This was not over yet. Seeing that the Headless Knight couldn’t stop him, Han Xing unleashed the Fireball and Thunderball in his hands, without a moment of hesitation, directly smashing toward Frank.
Frank was well aware of the power behind his attack, expecting the corpses to immediately rush forward to take the blow for him. However, the corpses were unable to move an inch, as they were all being held back by Fourteen Continents and his companions.
“Death Elf.”
“Death Storm.”
He continuously summoned his skills, trying to impede Han Xing, but Han Xing’s Lightning Steps were simply insane. With a swift flash, he appeared directly behind him.
“Alright, Frank, go to hell.”
The lightning on Han Xing’s body kept crackling and crackling, and the lightning was even more powerful.
“Lightning Sword!”
Streaks of lightning swiftly pierced through Frank’s body as Han Xing clenched his fist, shaping the Lightning Sword in his hand. Under Frank’s terrified gaze of Frank, the ground beneath his feet had already become a densely packed sea of fire.
“Flame Burst.”
Han Xing cut off his escape route, and Frank panicked completely as he saw the steadily increasing damage numbers popping up. He still wanted to summon other skills, but Han Xing didn’t give him any chance and swiftly finished him off.
Frank had been eliminated, and without his control, the remaining members were no match for the Mad Dragon Guild. They handled the situation with ease. This battle gave the Mad Dragon Guild a solid ten points, securing their position at the top of the leaderboard.
The netizens watching the live broadcast were completely stunned, as they had thought this battle would last a bit longer, but to their surprise, Han Xing, effortlessly emerged victorious.
“That was indeed unexpected but not entirely surprising,” Petite Delicate exclaimed in her long-awaited live broadcast, finally breaking her silence with a gentle voice.
“Sigh, our guild master is really too strong. He ended the battle so easily. He had never met a strong opponent, so he thought that he could have a good spar today.”
These words left those who were expecting a joke in the live broadcast feeling uncomfortable, holding back their words one by one. They wanted to lash out, to argue back, but in the game, strength reigns supreme, and the Mad Dragon Guild has no vulnerabilities to ridicule!”
Not to mention their formidable guild master, effortlessly taking down Frank, the Mad Dragon Guild was currently sitting at the top of the leaderboard. They went around insulting others, but if they couldn’t back it up with their own strength, weren’t they just shooting themselves in the foot?
The fans of the Mad Dragon Guild and the Star Rebel were even more furious now.
“I saw some players still claiming on the official forum that the Mad Dragon Guild will definitely be stopped here. All I can do is laugh out loud three times, hahaha! 1 won’t reveal who will be stopped here.”
“Some people just love boasting about foreign players, thinking that players from overseas are unbeatable. Where are they now? Why aren’t they saying anything?”
“The foreign players are indeed very strong, but 1 don’t think they can compare to the Mad Dragon Guild. To be honest, Guild Master Star Rebel’s current achievements were all due to his accumulated strength. There was no hype involved at all.”
On the official company forum, those inappropriate comments had been swiftly removed by some individuals who had made mocking remarks. After all, it was a good thing for domestic players to defeat foreign guilds, and if they still put a wet blanket on them otherwise, they should end up being relentlessly criticized.
Even though Zhang Wanshan was reluctant in his heart, he had to gather his spirits. He and several other anchors could only nod and say, “Congratulations to the Mad Dragon Guild on successfully defeating Saint Martin Guild.”
Some of the more stubborn players could not sit still when they saw how proud the fans of the Mad Dragon Guild were.
“I don’t know what you’re so proud of, just winning against the Saint Martin Guild? There are plenty of guilds much stronger than the Saint Martin Guild. We still have several days of competition left, and 1 refuse to believe they will keep winning.”
“I was actually quite optimistic about the Mad Dragon Guild, but after hearing what you guys said, 1 will definitely not bet on them to win anymore.”
“Take your gambling schemes elsewhere if you’re looking to swindle and deceive other players out of their money. Go to hell!”
“Well said, too well indeed. Do you really think winning one guild makes you arrogant? Haven’t even considered what kind of person you are. If you have the skills, keep winning continuously, and take first place. I’d like to see how formidable Mad Dragon Guild really is.”
“Hahaha, they can go ahead and boast about their strength if they can keep winning! It’s not like they’re anything extraordinary..”
