It could be said that this was the most likely and most logical inference.
However, when the director finally cut the camera to where IAmNoPig was, everyone was surprised to see IAmNoPig lying on the ground. His fat chest had a shimmering silver crystal arrow stuck in it! The crystal arrow had penetrated his chest from the back, and the cold arrowhead was dripping with blood.
And what was most surprising was that IAmNoPig's throat had a bloody hole that was spewing blood!
These were clearly two different kinds of injuries, and they were done by two different people. In the first few minutes of the match, two people had attacked IAmNoPig at the same time?
What the hell was going on?
Thankfully, every contestant had a camera following them, so the director was able to cut to this missed scene.
The director immediately replayed the scene three seconds before IAmNoPig died. Back then, WindWithoutTrace had kept the "Energy Pearl", and IAmNoPig was smiling foolishly. He did not look like he had any complaints.
Suddenly, a crystal arrow tore through the air from a distant shadow. WindWithoutTrace was the first to react as he yelled, but IAmNoPig took a moment to react. He immediately conjured a Psionic Barrier that enveloped his body, but the crystal arrow instantly shattered the barrier. It penetrated IAmNoPig's back and came out of his chest, splattering hot blood.
IAmNoPig did not die immediately. He took a step forward and pointed at WindWithoutTrace's chest. With a trembling voice, he said, "Energy Pearl … give … me."
The Energy Pearl could restore a contestant's Psionic Power, stamina and vitality. Hence, IAmNoPig placed all his hopes on the Energy Pearl when he was on the brink of death. He took another step forward, hoping that WindWithoutTrace would support him and give him the Energy Pearl.
However, what awaited IAmNoPig was WindWithoutTrace's sudden spear. The spear had pierced through his throat, causing him to fall to the ground. The crystal arrow that had pierced through his body had its tail hit the ground, and the body of the arrow immediately shot upwards, penetrating his chest. At the same time, large amounts of blood spewed out from the hole in his throat. The two fatal wounds quickly took away IAmNoPig's life.
At the moment IAmNoPig's consciousness drifted out of the virtual world, WindWithoutTrace said coldly, "Since I'm going to die, let me take your head. Don't worry, I will kill the person who attacked you and avenge you. "
WindWithoutTrace did not look at IAmNoPig again. He turned around and used Wind Step to run in the direction where the crystal arrow had come from.
The replay was less than ten seconds long, but it made the audience feel an oppressive atmosphere. From their point of view, WindWithoutTrace clearly had enough time to push IAmNoPig out of the range of the crystal arrow. Later on, he could have used the Energy Pearl to save IAmNoPig's life. However, he did not do anything. Instead, he fired a shot in order to steal the kill!
Could it be that they could disregard the importance of life just because it was a virtual world?
The two commentators were silent at this moment. Although everything was virtual and it was just a competition without any cost, WindWithoutTrace's actions left them with no excuse. They could not help but want to start a fight, but their professionalism allowed them to bear with it.
And at this moment, the screen was following WindWithoutTrace, who was using Wind Step to quickly traverse through the forest. After peeling away the shrubs, the ambusher who had shot the crystal arrow held a crystal bow in his hand and stood quietly in the forest.
"Princess Xiao Xiao!?"
Countless people exclaimed, including the two commentators and WindWithoutTrace in the virtual world.
Who else could the white-dressed woman standing quietly in the lush green world be if not Princess Xiao Xiao? But why was she the one who shot the arrow?
"I never expected the ambusher to be you!" WindWithoutTrace's voice had a hint of surprise in it.
"Ambush?"
Xiao Xiao smiled lightly and said, "That arrow was just a greeting. But I never expected that you would stand idly by when you could have saved him. "
WindWithoutTrace's breathing faltered as he explained, "I wasn't standing idly by. I just panicked for a moment and didn't react in time."
Xiao Xiao sneered and said, "You didn't use the Energy Pearl and instead fired a shot. Was that also because of a moment of panic?"
WindWithoutTrace's expression changed drastically. He never expected Xiao Xiao to notice his dirty actions. His eyes were immediately filled with killing intent as he raised his spear and took a small step forward.
"You should have fled after shooting the arrow, but since you dared to stay here and wait, don't blame me for not letting you leave." WindWithoutTrace's spear tip was already aimed at Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao was a long-range archer, while WindWithoutTrace was a melee fighter with a spear. At this moment, WindWithoutTrace had already closed the distance between them to within ten meters, entering his advantageous zone. Xiao Xiao could be said to be in extreme danger.
"Oh? Not letting me leave? Just because of that clumsy and laughable Wind Walk of yours? "Xiao Xiao's voice was cold and filled with disdain.
WindWithoutTrace's eyes focused slightly as he suddenly took a light step forward and shot towards Xiao Xiao like a gust of wind.
"Just because my Wind Walk has reached the Familiarized Proficiency realm, I can kill you on the spot!"
A confident sneer suffused across WindWithoutTrace's lips as his eyes were filled with killing intent. In the Psionic Mortal Realm, once a skill reached the Familiarized Proficiency realm, a person's strength would far exceed other Psionic Mortal Realm opponents. That was a world that belonged to geniuses. As for his Wind Walk and Wind Spear, they were both at the Familiarized Proficiency realm. Even though Xiao Xiao's realm was one level higher than his, she would still be unable to withstand his attacks once he closed the distance.
Close, close. The delicate body that was wrapped in the white dress was just inches away from him. His spear was about to penetrate the soft and beautiful body, and the bewitching blood-colored lotus flower was about to bloom at the next instant.
"So what if you're a princess of a wealthy family? So what if you're a student of Peihua University? So what if you're a proud daughter of Heaven? Won't you still end up as a ghost under my spear? "
At this moment, even though he knew that this was a virtual world, even though he knew that everything was fake, WindWithoutTrace still felt a perverted sense of satisfaction.
He wanted to pierce through Xiao Xiao's body with his spear. He wanted to see her miserable state as she perished!
"Pu!"
A light sound came from the ground as dust flew up. WindWithoutTrace's Wind Spear had missed!
"Impossible!"
WindWithoutTrace's eyes widened as he saw Xiao Xiao instantly retreat several meters away!
WindWithoutTrace took a deep breath and immediately charged forward with his spear in hand. This time, he was not in a hurry to stab with his spear. Instead, he infinitely closed the distance between him and Xiao Xiao.
However, he saw it. He clearly saw Xiao Xiao's retreating footsteps. Countless sand and dust swirled under her feet, and her body was rapidly pulling away from him.
"Wind Steps!?"
WindWithoutTrace, who was extremely familiar with Wind Steps, immediately determined that Xiao Xiao was clearly using Wind Steps!
WindWithoutTrace was extremely alarmed. He had clearly used Wind Steps to run at full speed, but he was unable to catch up to Xiao Xiao's retreating Wind Steps. Furthermore, the distance between them was gradually being pulled apart!
"Princess Xiao Xiao's Wind Steps has already reached the Exemplary Mastery realm. Sigh, she's no doubt a proud daughter of Heaven!"
In the commentator stands, Biscuit gave his judgment based on his experience.
The audience was momentarily stunned speechless. It was already impressive to reach the Familiarized Proficiency realm in a particular technique at the Psionic Mortal Realm, but to reach the Exemplary Mastery realm, it could only be described as a monstrous genius.
Princess Xiao Xiao was actually such a genius!
WindWithoutTrace, who had been pulled apart, also realized that Xiao Xiao's Wind Steps had already reached the Exemplary Mastery realm. At that moment, all the pride in his heart was shattered. The distance between the two of them was like a despairing distance between him and a true genius.
"You won't let me leave? Just because of that clumsy and laughable Wind Steps of yours? "
As he suddenly recalled Xiao Xiao's disdainful words, WindWithoutTrace suddenly found it difficult to breathe. It was as though his throat was being tightly gripped by an invisible hand.
Suddenly, his pupils violently constricted because he saw that a hundred meters away, Xiao Xiao had already pulled back her bowstring. The crystal arrow that shimmered coldly under the sunlight was ready to be fired.
