“Hehe!” Tang Rou revealed a rather cunning smile, “You can only guess what I'm thinking, but don't you think your words are already obvious enough?”

“Oh?”

“Ye Xiu is Ye Qiu, right? Am I right?” Tang Rou asked.

“That's right!” Ye Xiu's calm answer surprised Tang Rou a little. She thought that if she had discovered his true identity, he would have had some special reaction. Either he would make an excuse, or ask her not to tell anyone, but at least it shouldn't be such an indifferent look. If he really didn't care, then why would he change his name to hide his identity?

Tang Rou couldn't figure it out. She looked at Ye Xiu, hoping to hear the reason, but this time it was Ye Xiu who showed a cunning smile, "Want to know the reason for using two names? But I can't tell you that."

“Oh.” Tang Rou's expression was also calm. Although she was curious, she could control her curiosity. She wouldn't pry into other people's secrets that they didn't want to reveal, just like Ye Xiu treated her. He could see that her background was unusual, but he didn't ask about it relentlessly.

“Can I tell Guo Guo?” Tang Rou asked.

“Whatever.” Ye Xiu still didn't care.

“It's not hard to imagine her reaction after she finds out,” Tang Rou said with a smile.

“That's hard to say, maybe she'll have a feeling of disillusionment,” Ye Xiu said.

Tang Rou thought about it seriously and nodded, "That's quite possible."

Ye Xiu chuckled and didn't say anything more. Tang Rou moved back to her seat, but Chen Guo didn't come back for a long time. After sitting for a while, the lights in the stadium began to dim, obviously the break time was over, and Tang Rou had just received a text message from Chen Guo complaining about the long toilet queues.

The activity continued, and the next one was the oldest activity of the All-Star Weekend: players versus professional players.

It was no longer a game. This time, it was a real battle. Professional players would come out and accept challenges from the audience.

After the host announced the next activity, Ye Xiu looked at Tang Rou and saw that the girl was eager to try. After hearing the host say that the buzzer on the armrest would be used, she immediately put her hand on it.

After the host explained the process, he began to introduce the professional player who was about to appear: the swordsman player from Team Samsara, Du Ming.

Although not a top-tier god, Du Ming was one of the main players in Team Samsara. He had a solid foundation and a wild style. He was also a very distinctive player, known as the "Mad Swordsman." Taking advantage of his home-field advantage, he immediately received applause and screams when he appeared, and there were many fans.

Du Ming went on stage, briefly accepted an interview, and then went to the competition stage. The host immediately began to greet the audience who wanted to challenge him to get ready.

“When the electronic display lights up, everyone can press the buzzer. Our system will accurately check to determine who is the first to press the buzzer with an accuracy of one ten-thousandth of a second. Please pay attention to the electronic screen and get ready.”

As soon as the host finished speaking, the audience became quiet. There were quite a few players who wanted to compete with professional players, and they were all staring at the electronic display, waiting for the moment it lit up.

“Ding…”

The electronic screens hanging in a circle in the center of the stadium not only lit up at the same time, but also made a "ding" sound, using the system prompt sound from the Glory online game. Everyone pressed the buzzer at that moment. The host also looked up, and who would be the first challenger would be displayed on the electronic screen immediately.

“Area C, Row 18, Number 23!!!”

The host immediately shouted as soon as the electronic display showed the result.

“Congratulations to this audience member for winning the opportunity to challenge Du Ming.” The host said immediately after announcing the results. At this time, there was an uproar in the audience. Many people with good memories looked at this familiar seat number and quickly remembered that it was the seat number that Su Mucheng had chosen with a sigh of relief during the high jump in the second segment. It seemed to be a beautiful Battle Mage.

“You’re really something!” Ye Xiu was also surprised at this time, never expecting Tang Rou to be the fastest to press the buzzer.

“Good luck, maybe?” Tang Rou was a little dazed. She really didn’t dare to say that she had won this kind of answering method with her own strength.

“Good luck,” Ye Xiu said.

“Of course.” Tang Rou got up and walked towards the arena again. The surrounding audience also looked surprised. Being on stage twice during the All-Star Weekend activities was unprecedented in previous years.

As a result, the host was forgetful and didn't notice anything unusual from the seat number. It wasn't until Tang Rou came on stage again that he recognized in surprise that this was one of the two beautiful women who had been on stage once in the second segment and performed very well.

“Ah, ah…” The host was also surprised and needed to organize his words. After “ah-ing” twice, he hurriedly said: “I didn’t expect the first person to get the chance to challenge is an old friend! But according to convention, you still have to introduce yourself to everyone, although everyone may already know you.”

“My name is Tang Rou, and my class is Battle Mage.” Tang Rou smiled.

“Having only played Glory for a month, you’ve gotten the chance to be on the same stage as professional players, and twice at that. Miss Tang, you’re really lucky!” Tang Rou was the most eye-catching of all the audience members who had been on stage before, so the host remembered a little about her.

“Yes, I’m very honored,” Tang Rou said.

“Then, let’s look forward to the performance of this newcomer? Oh, right, you need an account, right?” the host said.

“Yes!” Tang Rou nodded.

“How about using the one you used before?” the host asked.

“Sure!” Tang Rou certainly had no objections.

After taking the account card, Tang Rou also logged onto the competition stage. At this time, the audience was full of discussions about her super luck. Chen Guo came back from the toilet and was greatly amazed by Tang Rou's character when she heard about this. Ye Xiu, however, realized that this might not be just luck in the midst of the full house of exclamations.

Tang Rou had talent in Glory, which was beyond doubt. People who had been in contact with her, such as Wang Jiexi, had directly been tempted. And today, right under the noses of many teams, Tang Rou had once again put on a great show. If such a performance was not enough to make all the teams tempted, then combining it with Tang Rou being a newbie who had only played Glory for a month, it would be a bit slow not to be tempted.

As for Samsara, taking advantage of their home-field advantage, they could easily manipulate things and bring Tang Rou back on stage in such a segment. Tang Rou's second appearance on stage might not be luck at all, but rather her strength helping her win it.

While Ye Xiu was thinking about these things, the match on the stage had already begun.

The map was usually chosen by the players, but Tang Rou didn't have a familiar map at all, so she simply chose a random one.

The two characters quickly appeared on the map and rushed towards the center together. After a while, they appeared in each other's line of sight.

Neither of them stopped their characters, continuing to rush forward. Just as they were about to get close, a sword flashed! It was Du Ming who had decisively launched the attack first.

Tang Rou was shocked and quickly performed an action, letting her character slide away. She also liked to take the initiative to attack, and had already started the attack operation, but she didn't expect her opponent to be faster than her. For Tang Rou, it was really rare to be in a passive situation from the start. In the online game, whether facing system monsters or expert players, she could usually take the initiative from the start.

Du Ming missed the first attack, but didn't give Tang Rou a chance to counterattack at all. The character backhanded with another upward slash.

Tang Rou reacted quickly and performed another side roll, dodging the upward slash.

Triple Slash!

Draw Sword!

Dragon Soars!

Three extremely fast consecutive attacks were executed smoothly from the swordsman controlled by Du Ming. Sword light flowed around Tang Rou's character. After barely dodging the Triple Slash, the swordsman circled behind Tang Rou. Experience was Tang Rou's absolute weakness. At this time, her judgment was obviously insufficient, and she was eventually hit by Draw Sword from behind. Then, with a Dragon Soars, Tang Rou's Battle Mage was lifted into the air by the sword light.

Falling Phoenix Slash!

Using Falling Phoenix Slash after Dragon Soars was a combo that any swordsman player would be familiar with, but at this time, it was performed by a professional player, making everyone feel that it was even more seamless.

The sword light falling from above made it impossible for Tang Rou to dodge, and she was slashed in the waist, falling straight to the ground. Du Ming didn't let up, and after Falling Phoenix Slash, he actually used Silver Light Falling Blade again, chasing after Tang Rou's character, who hadn't landed yet, as if flying with a sword.

Tang Rou's high APM finally broke out at this time. The moment she touched the ground, she quickly performed a recovery roll, and the character rolled to the side. Du Ming's swordsman's Silver Light fell, but was completely dodged. As soon as he raised his head after retracting the move, the battle lance had stabbed over like a poisonous snake. Du Ming quickly used a block, and the character blocked with his sword horizontally. With a "clang" sound, he blocked the Dragon Tooth and slid back a few steps.

Although he was not stiffened due to the successful block, and the damage was reduced, it was still a hit. In this situation, the Battle Mage's Magic Chaser would be generated, and Tang Rou had already used Chaser Launcher. The newly generated non-attribute chaser immediately chased after Du Ming.

The Magic Chaser automatically tracked the target and could not be dodged. Just as it was about to explode, a sword light flashed, and the non-attribute chaser seemed to be split in half in an instant, and then exploded. It was Du Ming who had split it.

“What a pity…”

The audience was not very interested in this match. Everyone was more eager to go on stage and fight against professional players.

On the professional players' side, however, everyone was watching very carefully at this time. Like Ye Xiu, people from the major teams suspected that Samsara had manipulated the process in this segment and had brought this audience member onto the stage again. However, this was exactly what they wanted to see. Everyone was looking forward to seeing how capable this newbie who had been playing the game for a month was.
