Hu Die Lan

Chapter 766 An Amazing Newcomer

Lu Hanwen...

The outside world, even the media, only knows a tiny bit of information about this kid, his strength a mystery. But Ye Xiu and the others had already witnessed the teenager's strength many times in the game. Repeated defeats in team battles had made Chen Guo and others somewhat unimpressed with Lu Hanwen. On the contrary, Ye Xiu held the teenager in high regard. When he saw Blue Rain's news, he looked like he knew it all along, saying, "This kid will definitely surprise everyone."

"Because of his eight-shadow Sword Shadow Steps?" Chen Guo laughed. Having hung out with Ye Xiu, Chen Guo had seen a lot. In the past, she would have been amazed to see someone using Sword Shadow Steps to create eight shadows, but now, with Ye Xiu's commentary, she knew that Lu Hanwen's eight shadows were enough to fool her, but in the professional circle, it was full of flaws, equivalent to four shadows.

"Don't underestimate him just because he's often killed here. This is an online game, after all, and it's different from the professional circle," Ye Xiu said. Ye Xiu was very familiar with people like Zhang Xinjie and Lin Jingyan. He knew they were opponents, but he wouldn't pay too much attention to them. However, Ye Xiu had been paying attention to Lu Hanwen from Blue Rain for a while. The kid's fighting spirit left a deep impression on Ye Xiu, and he even had the idea of poaching Lu Hanwen. But now, it was obviously too late. Blue Rain was decisive enough to make the 14-year-old player an official member of the team.

But then again, if Blue Rain didn't sign him, Ye Xiu would have a hard time with Lu Hanwen's situation. Because the age of 14 falls under the category of child labor. Blue Rain could sign him because esports had gradually gained recognition and had been classified into the category of culture and sports. Lu Hanwen's identity was defined as an athlete, which could be reported to the relevant labor department for approval. However, only official clubs registered with the league like Blue Rain could smoothly obtain this approval. It would be a very tricky problem for Ye Xiu's side.

Now it was good. Blue Rain simply promoted Lu Hanwen, saving Ye Xiu from thinking too much. He was quite optimistic about the child's future in the professional circle.

"Great God! Boss!" At this moment, Bai Xi Jingliu sent a message, saying that the Zhao Hua guild had discovered a wild Boss refresh.

"Who's here? Is Tyrannical Ambition here?" Everyone asked as they hurried over. Tyrannical Ambition was, of course, their main concern. Zhang Xinjie and Lin Jingyan joining forces in Tyrannical Ambition were very difficult to deal with, and they couldn't do it without thorough preparation.

"I haven't seen them yet, but people from Zhongcaotang and Blue Brook Guild have already arrived," Bai Xi Jingliu relayed the message sent back from the front.

Ye Xiu and the others quickly arrived at the Boss refresh point and found that Tyrannical Ambition's people had also arrived. But they were just watching from the side and didn't rush forward. On the Boss side, Zhongcaotang and Blue Brook Guild were fighting each other.

"What is Tyrannical Ambition doing?" Ye Xiu carefully observed, and found that Tyrannical Ambition's team had not arranged any formation, just standing there casually. The people from the four guilds had habitually regarded Tyrannical Ambition as their main competitor. Seeing that Tyrannical Ambition was standing here without moving, they did not dare to act rashly.

Ye Xiu's Lord Grim walked out of the team and took a few steps towards Tyrannical Ambition. The players of Tyrannical Ambition suddenly became very nervous and prepared for battle. Ye Xiu regarded Tyrannical Ambition as their main competitor, and Tyrannical Ambition also regarded them as the most difficult to deal with. Recently, Ye Qiu was using Lord Grim, a Battle Mage, which was known to everyone, and he often took the lead in charging into traps. Seeing this guy standing up again, Tyrannical Ambition thought that the other party was about to launch an attack, and quickly spread out their formation to prepare for battle. Tyrannical Ambition had been led by their team's vice-captain these days, and their team combat skills had also improved a lot.

As a result, they heard Ye Xiu shout, "What are you panicking about? Where's Zhang Xinjie? Call him out."

Tyrannical Ambition booed first. In the entire Glory circle, the people from Tyranny were the ones who didn't regard Ye Qiu as a human being. He was the guy they hated the most.

However, Zhang Xinjie quickly received the message, and Wangshan Yunwu soon walked out of the crowd.

"Where's Old Lin?" Ye Xiu asked.

"Hehe." Zhang Xinjie smiled without saying a word. Lin Jingyan's rogue had been hiding stealthily for so many days, how could Zhang Xinjie reveal the character used by Lin Jingyan.

"Do you guys have some conspiracy for not attacking yet?" Ye Xiu asked bluntly.

"Let's see first," Zhang Xinjie said.

"What is there to see?" This was actually what Ye Xiu really wanted to ask. If the other party really had some conspiracy, did they expect their opponent to tell them? Tyrannical Ambition was holding back here, seemingly observing something. While asking this, Ye Xiu's character's perspective also turned in the direction of Zhang Xinjie's Wangshan Yunwu's perspective. Soon, he found what Zhang Xinjie was observing.

In that direction, in the melee between Zhongcaotang and Blue Rain, two swordsmen were fighting fiercely, their cold light flashing, their sword qi soaring, clearly exceeding the level of ordinary players.

"The one from Blue Rain, is that Lu Hanwen, whom they just announced as a formal player today?" Zhang Xinjie was talking about one of the entangled swordsmen, Flowing Cloud of the Blue Brook Guild. It seemed that Lu Hanwen had not introduced himself to Zhang Xinjie. It was not until today that Zhang Xinjie clearly understood his identity.

"Yeah, a very good rookie," Ye Xiu said with emotion.

As for the one from Zhongcaotang, neither of them mentioned him. Looking at the wild, unstoppable hand speed, it was naturally Liu Xiaobie of their team.

At this time, Lu Hanwen and this very distinctive main player of the big guild were fighting tit-for-tat, and he was not at a disadvantage. In their battle, except for the occasional healing to help restore health, no one else came to help.

Ye Xiu and Zhang Xinjie were watching, and the players from both teams gradually found this place and were watching. Chen Guo now finally believed that she had underestimated Lu Hanwen a bit. Being able to fight to a draw with the main swordsman of the Tiny Herb team, Lu Hanwen's level was not like that of a 14-year-old child who had just joined the professional circle. Such a level, coupled with his record-breaking age limit, would surely bring more surprises to the Glory circle.

"Liu Xiaobie is probably going to lose."

Ye Xiu and Zhang Xinjie's characters were standing a few positions apart, watching the two swordsmen duel, when suddenly they heard a voice piercing between the two. Both of them turned their perspectives and saw a rogue character standing in the middle.

"Old Lin, you're willing to come out?" Ye Xiu despised.

"Change an account card later, and you won't know who it is," Lin Jingyan said.

"You're getting more and more despicable," Ye Xiu said with emotion.

"Tactical needs," Lin Jingyan said.

Zhang Xinjie didn't seem to pay much attention to the conversation between the two, but directly picked up what Lin Jingyan had said when he first intervened: "Yes, if it weren't for the healer, Liu Xiaobie might have already lost."

"This rookie looks quite powerful," Lin Jingyan said.

"Main force level," Zhang Xinjie said.

"Only 14 years old," Ye Xiu said.

"How long are we going to chat?" Lin Jingyan asked.

"That's about enough." As soon as Ye Xiu finished speaking, Lord Grim's battle spear decisively stabbed out, aiming at Lin Jingyan's rogue. As a result, Lin Jingyan was also prepared, and with a Grab, he wanted to take the opportunity to grab Lord Grim's battle spear.

Grab is a block and dismantle skill, and its judgment is even higher than skills like Circle Swing. Of course, Ye Xiu couldn't just be controlled by someone else, so he quickly canceled the skill. Lin Jingyan immediately changed his move, and a handful of sand was thrown over. Ye Xiu's Lord Grim jumped up, rotated 360 degrees, just enough to let the front avoid the Sand Toss attack, while the battle spear took advantage of the momentum to swing out a Tyrannical Strike. Lin Jingyan quickly jumped back, already avoiding it.

In just a short moment, the two characters had exchanged several moves, the rhythm extremely fast. This was an old general, his consciousness always ahead of his operations. His hand speed might not be fast, but the changes would only be faster.

Neither of them gained an advantage in a head-on confrontation. Lin Jingyan chuckled and was about to say something when suddenly he glimpsed a light in his field of vision. He looked down and saw that a lighter had fallen at his feet at some point, and was still spewing flames!

Lin Jingyan was shocked and quickly wanted to dodge. Since the lighter had fallen to this point, the speed of a Heat-Seeking Missile would definitely not be slower than a person's movements. Lin Jingyan's rogue had just jumped halfway when the missile arrived, and a mushroom cloud-like wave of air lifted him up. Lin Jingyan tried his best to control his character's figure, but he was still flipped several times in the air.

Ye Xiu would not wait for him to land, and seized the opportunity to rush up again.

But Zhang Xinjie had already made his move, giving Lin Jingyan's rogue a Recovery Spell while aiming a Sleep at Lord Grim.

The Sleep skill requires facing the character head-on, and is invalid when used from behind. However, because it doesn't have a visible object flying over like Sand Toss, it is more difficult to avoid than Sand Toss. But Ye Xiu was so experienced that as soon as he saw Wangshan Yunwu lifting the cross pendant like swinging a bell, he turned his perspective away before a swing could be completed.

However, Zhang Xinjie obviously didn't want to control Ye Xiu's Lord Grim with this skill. Sometimes, they used this kind of skill just to force their opponents to avoid their vision for a moment, and then take the opportunity to cast a skill when the opponent wasn't looking at them. Zhang Xinjie immediately lit a Sacred Fire.

Unfortunately, this kind of means was too simple to deal with Ye Xiu. Lord Grim made a z-shaped shake, bypassing the suddenly ignited white flame, and with a flick of his battle spear, he directly used a Sky Strike to juggle Lin Jingyan's rogue, who was still in the air. As a result, the moment Lord Grim approached, a brick suddenly flew out from under Lin Jingyan's feet.

This sneak attack came suddenly. Ye Xiu quickly jumped back while swinging the tail end of his battle spear, knocking down the brick. But because of this, Lin Jingyan's rogue temporarily escaped his control range. This was not a one-on-one fight. The players of Tyrannical Ambition had already rushed up. However, the players from the four guilds behind Ye Xiu did not lag behind either. The four guild leaders organized and rushed up as well.

The Boss was still in the circle of Zhongcaotang and Blue Brook Guild, but they had already started fighting here.
