Sky Strike, Falling Flower Palm!
A small combo of low level skills. Falling Flower Palm's strong Blow Away effect sent an NPC flying into the air, directly towards Lord Grim, who was still climbing up the cliff. Once again, the NPCs launched an offensive against Ye Xiu.
Ye Xiu was riding a tiger and couldn't get off. At least, that was what most of the pro players thought.
He hadn't attacked before because he was afraid of attracting the NPCs' aggro. He had hoped that the NPCs would be able to wear down Sun Xiang.
Who would've thought that these NPCs weren't very strong? In the end, they hadn't been able to deal much damage to One Leaf Of Autumn. Instead, they had fed One Leaf Of Autumn's status.
A five-attribute Chaser and a golden Battle Spirit. At this moment, One Leaf Of Autumn was at his peak, the peak he had been in over a decade.
And right now, his opponent was the one who had brought him into this world, Ye Xiu.
How was Ye Xiu supposed to deal with this?
He hadn't attacked before. If he attacked now, he would attract the NPCs' aggro. If he faced One Leaf Of Autumn with the NPCs' interference, it would be better to attack before.
At this point, he could only continue to avoid the battle!
That was what everyone was thinking. Who would've thought that this time, Ye Xiu wouldn't let Lord Grim dodge. Even though Falling Flower Palm's Blow Away effect was strong, sending a character high up in the air would only make them fly slower and slower. In the end, the threat wasn't that great. Lord Grim reached out and easily caught the flying NPC. Then, with a Fling, he smashed the NPC down towards One Leaf Of Autumn.
Everyone was stunned. In their eyes, this was the worst possible choice. Ye Xiu couldn't possibly not know this, right? What was this guy planning now?
The spectating pro players began to ponder, but Sun Xiang didn't think too much about it. He had already decided that he wouldn't compete with Ye Xiu in a battle of wits. He focused all of his attention on the offensive in front of him.
No matter how Ye Xiu responded, he only had one plan in mind: defeat him. Eliminate all obstacles. Defeat him!
Dodge!
One Leaf Of Autumn dodged the NPC that Lord Grim had thrown back. He swung Evil Annihilation, sweeping up another NPC and smashing it towards Lord Grim like a human cannonball. Because Lord Grim had grabbed the NPC, he immediately attracted the attention of the NPCs. Some of the long-ranged classes had already begun to attack him, who was on the cliff face.
Boom!!
Ye Xiu had already anticipated this and had Lord Grim dodge the cannonball ahead of time. One Leaf Of Autumn's human cannonball flew over, but Lord Grim dodged again.
Sun Xiang had already begun to attack Ye Xiu, but he wasn't in a hurry to charge forward. Most of his attention was focused on dealing with the NPCs attacking him. Whenever he had the chance, he would throw these NPCs at Lord Grim.
No matter how skilled Ye Xiu was, he couldn't move as freely as he could on the ground. Against Sun Xiang's coordinated attacks, he was quickly overwhelmed.
"Why bother?" The pro players once again expressed their confusion.
Since he was going to dodge in the end, why did he have to use Toss and Grab? Why did he have to attract so many attacks? It wasn't like he couldn't dodge the previous attack. If he had, he would have had to face Sun Xiang. If it was just Sun Xiang's One Leaf Of Autumn throwing human cannonballs, Ye Xiu would have had more than enough time to make Lord Grim dodge.
"I don't get it!" Almost everyone shook their heads. They couldn't figure out what Ye Xiu was planning. As for the broadcast, it was even quieter. This time, even the pro players couldn't figure out Ye Xiu's intentions. How could Pan Lin and Li Yibo dare to discuss it? They might as well pretend that this problem didn't exist.
Only Zhang Xinjie, Team Tyranny's Zhang Xinjie, who would never overlook any details, had a thoughtful expression on his face.
"What is it?" Han Wenqing asked. He understood his teammate. Seeing him like this, he knew what he was thinking. When he asked this question, all of the surrounding pro players looked over. Everyone was too eager to know the answer to this question.
"The ambush on top of the cliff is about to move," Zhang Xinjie said.
"Oh?"
Everyone looked over. From their perspective, they could see the NPCs on top of the cliff. They had been moving ever since the two teams of NPCs had spawned, but it looked like they were preparing for an attack. Even now, it didn't look like they were going to attack. How could Zhang Xinjie tell?
"The conditions for triggering their ambush aren't clear, but I think there are only two. Either they'll attack when a certain amount of time is up, or they'll clean up after a certain amount of damage." Zhang Xinjie analyzed. Everyone had seen the previous demonstration. The ambush on top of the cliff was a third team that was different from the two teams of NPCs below. Moreover, it could be said that they were the final victors. They had taken advantage of the fact that the two teams below had been injured to completely wipe out the two teams.
"Ye Xiu was waiting for this?" someone said.
"Seems like it. During the previous demonstration, I took note of the timing of the ambush and the number of people in the two teams. These two conditions are about to be met, "Zhang Xinjie said.
"But what will happen when the ambush is over? Will it change the battle situation?" someone asked doubtfully.
Zhang Xinjie didn't answer. He only continued to ponder. Clearly, this was a question that he couldn't figure out. From the timing of Ye Xiu's sudden attack on the NPCs, it should have a lot to do with the ambush. However, Zhang Xinjie couldn't figure out what the ambush meant to Ye Xiu. Those were the ambush, not his reinforcements. The enemy's attacks were indiscriminate. Whether it was Lord Grim or One Leaf Of Autumn, they wouldn't deliberately avoid them. The chances of them being targets to be eliminated were higher. Just what was Ye Xiu thinking?
At this moment, on top of the valley, an NPC accidentally knocked a small stone down. When the stone fell, no one noticed it. When it fell to the ground, it didn't attract anyone's attention. However, as if it was a signal, the NPCs lying in ambush on top of the valley suddenly began to move. They didn't say anything. As soon as they appeared, a wave of rolling stones was pushed down.
Boom boom boom boom!!
The sound of rolling stones suddenly rang out in the valley. Many of the NPCs on top of the valley were smashed into meat paste. At the same time, the NPCs on both sides of the valley began to use all sorts of long-range Glory skills to attack. The valley was suddenly attacked and instantly turned into a mess. However, the two teams of NPCs didn't seem to panic. They immediately counterattacked those that could attack from above. The melee classes continued to fight to the death on the ground. At the same time, they didn't forget about Lord Grim and One Leaf Of Autumn.
One Leaf Of Autumn was still being harassed by NPCs, but most of Sun Xiang's attention was on Lord Grim. The ambush had been activated. He had seen the plot. The NPCs on both sides of the valley wouldn't be able to hold on for long. After that, it wasn't clear if the ambush would continue to attack the two of them. From the looks of it, the ambush's attacks were targeted at the two of them.
Sun Xiang didn't care about this. He didn't deliberately think about how he could exploit this situation. He only stared at Lord Grim. After this wave of attacks from above, Ye Xiu finally couldn't keep Lord Grim in the air and finally fell back to the ground.
Charge!
One Leaf Of Autumn charged!
Lord Grim charged!
In the midst of the chaos, attacks were still coming at the two of them from different directions. The two of them stared at each other and fiercely charged forward.
Tyrant's Destruction!
Sun Xiang had One Leaf Of Autumn use Tyrant's Destruction. It swept 180 degrees, sweeping away the three NPCs.
However, Ye Xiu wasn't so easy to deal with. Lord Grim pulled out his sword. Collapsing Mountain! It actually flew right above the Tyrant's Destruction and chopped down at One Leaf Of Autumn.
Retreat!
One Leaf Of Autumn retreated. Five Chasers. Eighth Level Fighter. One Leaf Of Autumn's Strength and Speed were both at their peak. His movements were unprecedentedly nimble.
Even with One Leaf Of Autumn in this state and with so many NPCs interfering, Ye Xiu was actually going to fight him head-on?
What was he thinking!!
The pro players were worried to death. They didn't believe that Ye Xiu wasn't calculating. They didn't believe that he was really going to fight an unprepared battle. There had to be something that they had overlooked.
Upward Slash!
Collapsing Mountain didn't hit. Lord Grim swung his sword and used Upward Slash.
However, Draconic Crusher!
One Leaf Of Autumn's Evil Annihilation swung down like Mount Tai. With so many buffs, he had unparalleled speed. Under normal circumstances, a Battle Mage definitely wouldn't be able to use Draconic Crusher, which was faster than Upward Slash.
Draconic Crusher's priority was extremely high. Let alone Upward Slash, even if five Blade Masters used Upward Slash together, they would still be knocked down by Draconic Crusher.
Boom!
Evil Annihilation slammed into the ground. This attack cut Lord Grim from head to toe. However, Lord Grim didn't fall. Evil Annihilation actually passed through his body!
Shadow Steps!
The first skill that Ye Xiu had chosen to add to his weapon in the deciding match was finally revealed. The Blade Master's Shadow Steps.
However, One Leaf Of Autumn's Draconic Crusher came so quickly. It definitely couldn't have been used at that time. Shadow Steps had probably been used before Collapsing Mountain. However, Ye Xiu's control was too fast. After Shadow Steps' command, before the sword shadows could split apart, he had already completed Collapsing Mountain. When this Collapsing Mountain was launched, it was still a single person. However, when it landed, it was one of the four Lord Grim that had split apart after Shadow Steps was used. It was a single sword shadow.
Sun Xiang had already realized that something was wrong when Evil Annihilation pierced through Lord Grim's head. He hurriedly canceled the skill and made adjustments. However, to his surprise, just as he canceled the skill, Draconic Crusher slammed into the ground.
Moonlight Slash, Full Moonlight Slash!
Two beautiful sword lights flashed, leaving two bloody marks on One Leaf Of Autumn's body. At the same time, he was thrown into the air.
"Do you have enough experience to control One Leaf Of Autumn in this state?" Ye Xiu asked in the chat.

I haven't said anything to everyone at the end of a chapter in a long time. It seems like everyone has already started working, right? Good luck in the new year!!!
