Chapter 1 Approaching

Approaching, step by step, Liu Hao carefully controlled his character, An Wutianri, his steps steady, his gaze unwavering, his whole being without flaw.

The audience, however, began to yawn, because the direction An Wutianri was heading was not where Jun Mo Xiao was. After Jun Mo Xiao hid behind that stone pillar, he retreated in a straight line, then switched to the other side of another stone pillar.

God's perspective is sometimes really boring. The audience thought to themselves, they regretted that they could not experience Liu Hao's tense mood at this time. They couldn't help but sympathize with Liu Hao's unsuspecting caution.

Di Lie Bodong Jian (Earthen Fissure Wave Sword)!

An Wutianri launched a fierce attack. The sword intent of the Bodong Jian (Wave Sword) surged out, rolling over the ground and crashing into the stone forest, instantly splitting into two. A Di Lie Bodong Jian (Earthen Fissure Wave Sword) was divided into two paths, sandwiching the stone forest in between.

Liu Hao seized this opportunity, An Wutianri swept out horizontally, snatched the view, and an ice-creation Bodong Jian (Wave Sword) flashed out.

"Heh—"

The audience yawned again. There was no one behind the stone pillar. What was the point of Liu Hao fighting so vigorously? Ye Xiu's Jun Mo Xiao had moved away some distance and was not within the attack range. The battle was impossible to trigger at this moment. Everyone could see it clearly, except for Liu Hao, who was energetic and high-spirited, dedicating all his skills to the air.

Actually nothing!

Liu Hao was surprised to find that Jun Mo Xiao was not behind the stone forest.

However, with rich experience and a very familiar map, he immediately judged how Jun Mo Xiao had moved away from under his nose. An Wutianri continued to chase after him.

Very accurately, An Wutianri walked on the route chosen by Jun Mo Xiao. The audience at the scene saw Liu Hao's accurate judgment and were shaken by it. Applause rang out immediately.

Approaching, this time, it was really approaching, but this time, Liu Hao couldn't figure out where Jun Mo Xiao was.

But the audience didn't know this! They saw Liu Hao chasing after Jun Mo Xiao's route so accurately and sharply, and only thought that he had completely and clearly judged Jun Mo Xiao's position. How would they know that Liu Hao only knew roughly, and the final answer had to be a multiple-choice question!

Seeing An Wutianri getting closer and closer to Jun Mo Xiao, the players at the scene became more and more excited, cheering and shouting excitedly. Then, they saw An Wutianri sweeping a Di Lie Bodong Jian (Earthen Fissure Wave Sword) towards an empty stone forest.

Damn!

This was really disappointing.

The audience's expectations suddenly disappeared, and the scene became a silent pantomime.

Two Bodong Jian (Wave Sword) were cut out again with the same operation as before. The pulled-out view allowed Liu Hao to see that there was no one behind the stone pillar.

Okay, option A is eliminated. Liu Hao looked at B and C.

It should be behind these two, right?

Liu Hao suddenly became unsure again. Originally, he was very confident in his tracking. Although he had not seen Jun Mo Xiao along the way, he believed that the other party was under his control. If there was any movement outside of his control, he would definitely see it.

But there wasn't.

Then Jun Mo Xiao should be right in front of him, but he couldn't confirm which of the three, ABC, he was.

In Liu Hao's judgment, option A had the lowest probability. But in the end, he chose to attack here first. This was actually his bait. When attacking A, he paid more attention to B and C. He believed that Ye Xiu would definitely strike when he guessed the wrong target, so he used a trick within a trick.

However, Ye Xiu did not move. This allowed him to safely eliminate a false answer, and he began to doubt the authenticity of the other two options.

The audience immediately started arguing with him.

Jun Mo Xiao was right there! If one was wrong, just sweep again! Why did he stop?

An Wutianri raised the short sword in his hand and suddenly began chanting for a Bodong Zhen (Wave Formation), a multiple-choice way that could include both answers B and C.

As a result, at this moment, Jun Mo Xiao casually took a step out from option B.

Liu Hao was shocked and hurriedly canceled the chanting of the Bodong Zhen (Wave Formation) to attack. Hu Guang Shan (Arc Flash)! Jun Mo Xiao swept out a knife and had already killed his way in front of Liu Hao.

"You haven't changed. Your playing style is still so... hypocritical." Ye Xiu said, and Jun Mo Xiao had already slashed out a Shizi Zhan (Cross Slash). At this distance, the Shizi Zhan (Cross Slash), with its horizontal and vertical attacks, was really difficult to dodge. Liu Hao reacted quickly and used his short sword to protect his face, using the swordsman skill, Gedang (Block), to block Jun Mo Xiao's attack. Using the impact of the attack, he retreated backward.

"You knew where I was, couldn't you just attack directly? Did you have to go around in circles?" Ye Xiu didn't let Jun Mo Xiao rush to catch up and said again.

"Is this what you call hypocrisy?" Liu Hao typed with a sneer, "Don't tell me you never have?"

"I do too, but no one is as thorough as you," Ye Xiu replied.

"Do you think these words can shake me?" Liu Hao said.

"If you were really shaken, that would be a good thing," Ye Xiu said.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Liu Hao finally couldn't hold back anymore. After all, it was tiring to keep up appearances all the time.

"Okay!" Ye Xiu responded, and Jun Mo Xiao moved again.

Liu Hao sneered in his heart. In his opinion, Ye Xiu had made a mistake. How sudden was it that he suddenly jumped out when An Wutianri was chanting? How good of a surprise attack opportunity was it to flash in front of him? As a result, he only made one attack and stopped there to babble endlessly. Liu Hao was really happy from head to toe. At that time, he was panicking whether he could withstand Jun Mo Xiao's successive attacks. At that distance, it was not a distance that a magic swordsman was good at fighting in.

As a result, Ye Xiu stopped, which gave him a chance to breathe. This was simply letting the tiger return to the mountain! Liu Hao had adjusted himself, and he was not afraid of the next attack. He wanted to directly confront Ye Xiu head-on. Otherwise, what was the point of rushing to the center of the map at the beginning!

Let you lecture me, pay the price!

Liu Hao shouted in his heart, An Wutianri waved his sword, and the raging flames frantically rolled towards Jun Mo Xiao, who was rushing over. Lie Yan Bodong Jian (Flame Wave Sword)!

Boom!

The surging flames left Jun Mo Xiao with nowhere to hide, instantly igniting the flames and burning towards the bubble.

Hmph...

Liu Hao sneered again. Ying Fen Shen Shu (Shadow Clone Technique) was an old trick that had been used countless times.

An Wutianri had already jumped up, almost at the same time as the Lie Yan Bodong Jian (Flame Wave Sword) was launched. At this time, he twisted his body in the air, Di Lie Bodong Jian (Earthen Fissure Wave Sword)!

The earth rolled and swept out, and the arrogant Bodong Jian (Wave Sword) intent only brought up a trace of Jun Mo Xiao's clothing.

An Wutianri missed. It was because Jun Mo Xiao was not standing directly behind him. His position was slightly biased, and the Di Lie Bodong Jian (Earthen Fissure Wave Sword) helplessly rolled past him.

"Who told you that I would always stand behind my opponent?" Ye Xiu said as Jun Mo Xiao drew his sword.

Ba Dao Zhan (Draw Sword)!

The sword light swept past, and An Wutianri in mid-air could not dodge. Gedang (Block) had just been used before, and the cooldown was not ready. In a hurry, he could only slash out a sword with a normal attack.

But the attack judgment was much inferior to Ba Dao Zhan (Draw Sword) and could not be parried at all. The sword light of Ba Dao Zhan (Draw Sword) pushed the short sword that An Wutianri slashed out and crashed into himself. An Wutianri fell downwards, where the flames of his Lie Yan Bodong Jian (Flame Wave Sword) had not completely died out.

Although it was not completely parried, it still had some effect. An Wutianri's fall was not enough to flip him over. Liu Hao continued to adjust his character's posture to make him land as smoothly as possible.

Pa!

As a result, at the moment he landed, there was a sound under his feet. Liu Hao lowered his perspective and saw a Xian Jing Kou (Trap Snare) already buckled on An Wutianri's feet.

Theif skill, Xian Jing Kou (Trap Snare), effect: restricts movement.

Liu Hao's face turned ashen. When did Jun Mo Xiao set this trap? He didn't notice it at all. Looking at this position, was it the moment he launched Lie Yan Bodong Jian (Flame Wave Sword)? Did he use the thickest firelight to block his view at that moment?

In any case, Liu Hao was now trapped. An Wutianri could not move an inch during the skill time of Xian Jing Kou (Trap Snare). And this time, Ye Xiu didn't plan to chat with him anymore. Thunder Grenade, Paosha (Sand Toss), Qusan Fen (Dispersion Powder)... Jun Mo Xiao had already thrown out a lot of things when he rushed over. They were all attacks that covered a wide area and could not be avoided without moving. Liu Hao only turned his perspective to avoid the blinding effect of Paosha (Sand Toss), but he was hit by everything else. Then he saw the dark purple ghost power flashing on the sword light in Jun Mo Xiao's hand. A barrier had been erected on the ground: Daohun Zhili (Blade Soul Power), commonly known as Dao Zhen (Blade Formation), which greatly increased the character's strength and intelligence, improving combat power.

The real attack had just begun. Sanren (Unspecialized) fast-paced attacks.

The skill effect of the Xian Jing Kou (Trap Snare) was still there, and An Wutianri was being beaten. The skill effect of the Xian Jing Kou (Trap Snare) disappeared, and An Wutianri was still being beaten.

Liu Hao was crying. He had treasured this map for a long time, waiting for a critical moment to use it to increase his popularity. Now, a critical match, against Ye Xiu, with a 35-game winning streak, this was probably the most reputational opportunity in the singles arena this season. Liu Hao sacrificed his magic weapon and also showed the power of his magic weapon: relying on his familiarity with the map to launch accurate tracking, which could directly harvest applause from the audience.

But then there was no then.

He never got a chance to use the map again. Ye Xiu sealed his movement with a Xian Jing Kou (Trap Snare), and then the offense he arranged calmly did not give him any chance to rely on the map for cover or counterattack.

Was he going to lose?

Was he going to lose like this?

Was he going to lose his carefully planned and accurate battle without any power to fight back?

This was impossible. This was unscientific! He had worked very hard and was very attentive! Where was the victory? Why couldn't he capture a trace of victory? Could this person never be defeated?

Liu Hao felt terrified.

This was the best game he had designed. He thought he had a lot of advantages, but he never had a second of upper hand. He seemed to be still that trainee in the Excellent Era training camp. The aloof Battle God came to the training camp, casually chose a map, and casually defeated him.

He thought he was very powerful, but the final result was no different from the past. Easily and casually, he was defeated.

Why?

Why was this happening?

An Wutianri fell, and Liu Hao roared in despair in the competition seat, but no one would hear him.
