Did I lose?
It wasn't the first time Mo Fan had lost in a match, but this time, he felt a bit dazed. For a full two minutes and thirty-four seconds, he had been chased by his opponent with all his might. He had used everything he had, but he still hadn't been able to escape.
He left the player booth in a daze and walked off the stage in a daze. When he brushed past Fang Rui, he didn't respond to Fang Rui's shout of "I'll take revenge for you!".
When he returned to the player booth and walked past Ye Xiu, he heard him say, "Your awareness is still monotonous."
Some people's playstyles were monotonous, some people's techniques were monotonous. In the end, Ye Xiu's evaluation of Mo Fan was that his awareness was monotonous.
Mo Fan didn't say anything. He returned to his seat in the corner and pondered on it.
When Fang Rui walked onto the stage, he received a warm welcome from Happy's fans. This guy was flaunting his prowess amidst the cheers, as if Happy was temporarily lagging behind.
He stood on the stage, clapping and waving to the audience as if he had already won. Only when the referee rushed over and scolded him did he slip back into the player booth.
The entire stadium laughed.
After Zhang Jiale had defeated two people in a row, the tense and heavy atmosphere suddenly relaxed.
The match began.
Because of Fang Rui's appearance, the public channel, which had always been very quiet, finally became a lot more lively.
"Very impressive, a 1v2!" Fang Rui praised Zhang Jiale's performance.
"It's not over yet!" Zhang Jiale replied.
"It's about time," Fang Rui said.
As the two spoke, their characters started moving.
Mid lane, both of them cut to the middle lane again. It was clearly a map with a lot of content, but the battles that had happened so far had all taken place in the manor at the center. They were all internal battles.
However, the content was exciting, so the audience didn't care about this. However, the commentators Pan Lin and Li Yibo were analyzing the significance of Happy's choice of this map. For now, it seemed that being more familiar with the structure of the castle had brought some convenience to Contestant Happy, but it had not yet established an advantage. Of course, there were many factors involved in the competition. Using the home field advantage to gain an advantage was only one possibility.
Hai Wuliang and Dazzling Hundred Blossoms were soon back and forth again.
And then, Dazzling Hundred Blossoms unhesitatingly rushed in from the back door. In these three duels, Zhang Jiale had chosen the same strategy.
What about Hai Wuliang? Under Fang Rui's control, he seemed to have a well-thought-out plan. He calmly walked into the castle through the front door and then casually looked like he was visiting the castle.
However, the attentive spectators had already discovered that Hai Wuliang's mana was depleting, continuously depleting.
This was clearly a skill that continuously consumed mana.
What is it?
"Cloud Form Wind Body!" Pan Lin shouted in the broadcast.
Cloud Form Wind Body was a Qi Master's high status skill. It was a perception-type skill. In the game, the way to increase one's perception was through a radar-like scanning screen on Fang Rui's interface. Whenever a character entered this area, they would receive a notification.
However, looking at the mana consumption rate, if this was all there was to it, then this skill's value for money was too terrible. Cloud Form Wind Body's function wasn't limited to just that. It increased perception and helped the Qi Master control qi more accurately. And this so-called "more accurately" manifestation was automatically locking onto the target.
This effect sounded very good, but in reality, there weren't many Qi Masters who could use Cloud Form Wind Body. So what if it had the ability to automatically lock onto the target? Qi wouldn't increase, and attacks would still be interrupted. In the eyes of the vast majority of Qi Masters, Cloud Form Wind Body wasn't even as practical as the low-level Reinforced Iron Bones.
In the previous team competition against Blue Rain, Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang had relied on Reinforced Iron Bones to make a huge contribution at a crucial moment. However, in today's skill, he had shockingly chosen Cloud Form Wind Body, a skill that consumed a lot of mana and had unsatisfactory effects in many people's eyes.
"In order to quickly find Dazzling Hundred Blossoms' position, Fang Rui didn't hesitate to use Cloud Form Wind Body! This … doesn't seem too necessary, right? "Pan Lin was puzzled. Right now, this was a 1v1 group arena. There was no need to kill first. Fang Rui didn't need to be so impatient.
Li Yibo didn't utter a word. Even though he thought the same as Pan Lin, he decided to wait and see first.
After activating Cloud Form Wind Body, Hai Wuliang still strolled around as if he was touring an ancient castle, but his movement speed was clearly much faster. He was also doing his best to consume mana more efficiently.
The spectators, who had an omniscient view, watched as the two characters gradually approached each other. However, because of the distance between the rooms, their views couldn't touch. However, with Hai Wuliang's Cloud Form Wind Body, he didn't have a view, but he had qi perception. On the skill's radar, a small dot representing Dazzling Hundred Blossoms appeared.
However, Fang Rui didn't immediately go over and attack like everyone expected. Instead, he chose to move in a way that no one could understand.
"Is he trying to choose a spot to ambush?" Pan Lin guessed. Fang Rui's trademark was playing dirty. Ambushes and sneak attacks were inseparable from him.
Li Yibo still didn't utter a word. He looked at the direction Hai Wuliang was moving in, but he couldn't find a spot to ambush him. But if that wasn't the case, then what was Fang Rui planning to do?
Just as he was at a loss, Hai Wuliang's movement stopped. On the radar, Dazzling Hundred Blossoms' light dot was clearly moving. Hai Wuliang raised his two palms and gathered qi.
"That's … Spirit Reaches to the Rainbow?" Pan Lin saw it.
The Qi Master's Awakening skill, Spirit Reaches to the Rainbow, gathered qi and spread throughout the entire body. Hai Wuliang's clothes fluttered wildly in the wind, as if his entire body was on fire.
"What's he doing? Where is he attacking from?" Pan Lin was completely confused. Hai Wuliang and Dazzling Hundred Blossoms were separated by a wall. There were no exits in this wall, so there was no ambush or anything like that!
At this moment, Li Yibo had a thought.
"Zoom in!" He cut off the voice recording and called out to the director.
The camera zoomed in, but Li Yibo's line of sight wasn't on Hai Wuliang, but on the wall in front of Hai Wuliang.
Large patches of the wall had peeled off, revealing the stone bricks inside, which were now covered in cracks.
These were the traces left behind by the previous two battles. Dazzling Hundred Blossoms' bullets, Lord Grim's and Deception's attacks. Li Yibo couldn't remember what had happened here. He only knew that this wall had been damaged to a certain extent. Fang Rui's ambush was working because he was going to have Hai Wuliang directly break through this wall. Zhang Jiale, on the other side of the wall, probably didn't notice this.
The cursor on the radar continued to move in this direction, moving parallel to the other end.
Hai Wuliang's clothes continued to flutter wildly, even making some noise, but this wasn't enough for Zhang Jiale to hear through the wall.
Close …
Everyone knew what was going to happen next, and they were already imagining the scene that was going to happen in this instant. They had already found the most suitable viewing angle for the broadcast.
The cursor flashed again.
Dazzling Hundred Blossoms took another step. He and Hai Wuliang were finally at the shortest distance between two points.
Spirit Reaches to the Rainbow!
Fang Rui didn't disappoint and launched an attack. Hai Wuliang, covered in qi, looked like he was flying. With a boom, the wall collapsed.
Zhang Jiale was startled. Hai Wuliang's rainbow had already passed through the wall and arrived in front of him.
Roll!
Dazzling Hundred Blossoms rolled to the side.
This was an incomparably experienced pro player. In the face of danger, he didn't think at all. This was a reflex action. No response could be faster than this.
However, no matter how fast a human's actions were, they couldn't compare to the system's judgement.
Hai Wuliang, with Spirit Reaches to the Rainbow, adjusted his position in the air along with Dazzling Hundred Blossoms' rolling direction. He dropped down and collided with Dazzling Hundred Blossoms. The gathered qi immediately exploded. It wasn't dazzling, but its damage was astonishing. The nearby decorations in the room were instantly reduced to dust.
Until Spirit Reaches to the Rainbow hit, Fang Rui didn't deactivate Cloud Wind Body. Thus, this skill relied on its powerful detection to automatically lock onto the opponent. Zhang Jiale's quick reflexes couldn't beat the system's judgement.
However, the wall had been broken first, so this attack's damage had been reduced significantly. This direct hit only took away 6% of Dazzling Hundred Blossoms' health.
However, this was only the beginning of Hai Wuliang's attack.
Cloud Wind Body's Spirit Reaches to the Rainbow instantly closed in on Dazzling Hundred Blossoms. The qi exploded, reducing everything to dust, but this didn't bring any peace. The qi from Spirit Reaches to the Rainbow hadn't even dissipated completely. A new wave of qi was born under Hai Wuliang's applause.
Time seemed to freeze. All everyone could see was Hai Wuliang's surging qi, roaring recklessly in this small room. By the time everything returned to normal, the system announced: Glory!
Fang Rui, Hai Wuliang, victory!
The entire audience was dumbstruck.
Fang Rui, with his character at full health, had defeated Zhang Jiale, with his character at 27% health. This result wasn't too surprising. What was surprising was the method.
One wave of ambushes, directly taking him down.
Was this considered dirty, or domineering? No one could say for sure.
If it was dirty, then that qi explosion was extremely heroic. If it was domineering, then the way he hid behind the wall at the beginning was really dirty …
But no matter what, Happy won this round. He cleanly recovered the advantage that Zhang Jiale had gained in two battles. If it could be said that Fang Rui had used his interaction with the crowd to ease the tension in the stadium before going onstage, then now, he had used his incomparably strong performance to reassure the Happy fans in the stadium. After recovering from their shock at this clean and efficient process, the excited shouts of the Happy fans resounded throughout the entire Xiaoshan Stadium.

I came back a little late, but I still finished the first chapter. Like!
When I was organizing the folder, I found a picture of the six female characters that I wrote about in the past. Looking at it, I sighed for a while. I don't remember who sent the picture, and I don't know if the person still reads my book. Thank you for the memories this picture brought to me.
I sent the picture to WeChat to reminisce with everyone. Everyone, open WeChat and search for hdlan1109. The reply "former female characters" will be able to see it.
