Those who had followed Happy's matches and saw this scene, they immediately felt that it was a familiar sight. In their group matches against Team Mysterious Fantasy, Happy's Mo Fan and his Deception had been unhurried, patiently following their opponents, waiting for the most opportune moment to make their move. After gaining an advantage, they wouldn't be greedy. They would turn around and retreat. Then, they would repeat the process until they killed their opponent.
Seeing Qiao Yifan's One Inch Ash quietly circle behind his opponent, everyone couldn't help but think back to that scene from that day's match. Even though it was a different player this time, they were still from the same team. Who knew, they might use the same playstyle? If that was the case, then it really would be a bit boring!
The crowd booed. It was clear that Mo Fan's playstyle wasn't very popular. If you killed your opponent after a single sneak attack, then the audience would be able to enjoy it. But Mo Fan would always go back and forth. Every time he was about to reach a climax, he would beat the gong and retreat. His playstyle was practiced and smooth, but the audience was always teased by this rhythm and couldn't take a single breath, making them feel uncomfortable.
The lesson from the past was still vivid in their minds. Seeing that Qiao Yifan was going to do this again, the audience booed to express their dissatisfaction.
Amidst the boos, Xiao Jie glanced over at Happy. He actually wasn't flustered. That kind of slow and steady playstyle was really annoying, but this was the group arena, not the individual competition. Every player had to face a tag-team battle. And this kind of slow and steady playstyle, even though it wasn't very enjoyable, tested a player's skill and consumed a lot of energy. In the group arena, a player couldn't just focus on defeating the opponent in front of them. For the sake of overall victory, every player needed to conserve as much energy as possible while defeating the opponent in front of them, so as to create as much pressure as possible for the next opponent. As a result, this kind of overly taxing playstyle wasn't very suitable in the group arena.
Team Jade Dynasty's players also seemed to have heard the boos and suddenly went on guard.
After rushing for a while and not seeing the opponent's character, everyone knew that the opponent was preparing to launch a sneak attack. This was a very common playstyle, but when it came to Happy, it had to be taken more seriously. This was because Deception's endless stalking and Windward Formation's shameless hiding were both very disgusting.
However, with Mysterious Fantasy's test, Jade Dynasty's players were naturally mentally prepared. When he discovered that the other side had such intentions, he didn't panic. Instead, he decisively rushed towards the spawn point of Team Happy. He had learned from Mysterious Fantasy's previous match. He didn't want his opponent to find a random place to hide and waste his efforts.
Xiao Jie nodded in satisfaction when he saw that his own player had reacted quickly and reacted appropriately. They had actively made arrangements to deal with Happy, and they had specially studied the current situation. Right now, Ghostblade's response was completely in line with Xiao Jie's train of thought, which made him feel more at ease. Even though One Inch Ash wasn't actually at the spawn point, if they followed this train of thought, there wouldn't be any problems.
Just as Xiao Jie was thinking this, a sword suddenly flashed. Qiao Yifan's One Inch Ash had unexpectedly launched an attack.
Jade Dynasty's player was prepared to go to the spawn point to check, but this didn't mean that he had let down his guard. Qiao Yifan's timing for this sneak attack wasn't good. Anxious Ghost rolled and dodged the sword. When he got up, he followed up with a Moonlight Slash.
One Inch Ash jumped back to dodge. The sword light brushed past the tip of his nose. Anxious Ghost followed up with a Full Moonlight Slash. Moonlight Slash and Full Moonlight Slash were two skills, but because the combination of the two skills was beautiful and practical, almost 80% of the time, they would be linked together, as if they were two attacks from the same skill.
One Inch Ash dodged the previous Moonlight Slash, but was hit by the Full Moonlight Slash. He was blown away and rolled twice on the ground before regaining his footing. When he saw Anxious Ghost's sword light coming again, he immediately turned around and ran.
"Hahahaha." Xiao Jie laughed when he saw this scene. What did it mean to try to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it? In his eyes, this was the best example. Happy's sneak attack this time was too bad. Not only did he fail to take the initiative, he even put himself in a passive position. Now that he was being chased by Jade Dynasty's players, Xiao Jie was incomparably happy. He couldn't help but glance over at Happy.
Xiao Jie really hoped that Team Happy's members would show a bit of anxiety on their faces! But when he turned his head, he saw that they were all sitting calmly on the fishing platform, especially Ye Xiu. He even had a smile on his face!
Xiao Jie really wanted to say something, but when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he held himself back.
On the stage, Qiao Yifan's One Inch Ash turned around and dove into a side alley. The map used for the group arena was an ancient town. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, even though One Inch Ash immediately turned after entering the alleyway, his long shadow was cast behind him. When Anxious Ghost rushed over, he saw this and calmly sped up to catch up.
"Tsk tsk, the details determine success or failure!" Xiao Jie sighed. Happy's match against Jade Dynasty was still being broadcasted. At this moment, the various camera angles in the stadium were showing the match. In that instant, they had given One Inch Ash's long shadow a close-up. The commentator was also analyzing Qiao Yifan's mistake.
"He should've had his back to the setting sun, not his face …" The commentator sighed, when he saw One Inch Ash stop and crouch behind a wall. He placed down a Sword Soul to increase his Strength and Intelligence, ready to launch a sneak attack.
"This … I believe that Jade Dynasty's players wouldn't be unprepared." The commentator was quite confident. Using a corner to launch a sneak attack was too basic a strategy. How could a pro player not be prepared?
Sure enough, when Anxious Ghost chased after One Inch Ash, he didn't stick to the wall. Instead, he took two more steps and moved in a large arc. Which pro player wouldn't know how to open up space to defend against a sneak attack?
But even so, One Inch Ash still swung his tachi, sending a Moonlight Slash towards Anxious Ghost. Both man and tachi flew towards him.
"Tsk tsk, this sneak attack …" The commentator was just about to comment that this sneak attack was the same as Qiao Yifan's previous rash attack. But then, he saw Anxious Ghost swing his tachi like a fool. He didn't know what he was going to do, but he let One Inch Ash's Moonlight Slash hit him.
Moonlight Slash followed by Full Moonlight Slash. It was the exact same strategy, except that on top of the Full Moonlight Slash, Qiao Yifan quickly followed up with a Ghost Slash. Gui 'Jianchou's momentum suddenly increased. Like a cannonball, he flew straight into the mud. Jade Dynasty's player hurriedly Quick Recovered. Anxious Ghost's head hit the ground and then he did a somersault. As he somersaulted, he turned his body sideways. Sword light flashed from under his armpit. As he somersaulted, he threw a Sword Draw behind him.
But when the sword light flashed, One Inch Ash didn't even come over. Instead, he unsheathed his sword and Ghost Slash poured out, setting up two Ghost Boundaries.
The commentator was busy at this moment! He was busy explaining the current situation, but he couldn't let go of how Anxious Ghost had been hit by One Inch Ash's sneak attack. That shouldn't be! Such a simple sneak attack. Even he would be able to dodge it, no?
However, the two sides were currently fighting fiercely. There was no way to switch back to the previous scene to watch the replay. The commentator could only focus on the current situation. As he stared at the scene and spoke, he was stunned …
"Happy One Inch Ash has already set up his fourth Ghost Boundary. He's turned this small area into an encyclopedia of Ghost Boundaries. Jade Dynasty's Anxious Ghost doesn't seem to have many ideas. Behind him are high walls, and the only way out is blocked by One Inch Ash. Look, everyone, One Inch Ash didn't stack all of the ghost boundaries together. There were layers between the boundaries. This way, when Anxious Ghost tried to charge out, there would be layers of obstructions, making it difficult for him to control his rhythm. One Inch Ash, on the other hand, was much more relaxed. Sword Draw! Oh, Anxious Ghost's reaction was quite nimble. He dodged it. Huh … what's he doing … Anxious Ghost kept going forward. There's a wall here! Ah … he ran into a wall. Oh, it's a Seed of Darkness, or what we call a Dark Boundary. Sorry, because there were too many Ghost Boundaries, I didn't notice it. When did One Inch Ash set it down? Anyways, Anxious Ghost's stepped into a Dark Boundary. The darkness made him unable to see his direction, so he ended up walking into a wall … this … is a bit embarrassing … "
"The Dark Boundary's effect seems to have been canceled. Anxious Ghost's turned around … ah, it's frozen again. Ice Boundary …"
"One Inch Ash has the absolute advantage. To be honest, I want to announce the victory earlier, but because we just learned our lesson, let's finish watching the match first." The commentator analyzed the situation while joking with himself. In the previous match, the commentator couldn't help but announce Lin Yi's victory, but Baozi slapped him in the face. So, in this match, even though Qiao Yifan had the absolute advantage, he didn't dare to make any rash conclusions.
"Anxious Ghost's been sealed inside by One Inch Ash and can't get out. Happy's player has taken full advantage of the terrain and fully utilized the advantage of the Ghost Boundaries. Okay, now the broadcast is showing One Inch Ash's skill tree in action. Thank you to the broadcast director for capturing this scene. Everyone, look, all of One Ash's Ghost Boundaries are in use right now, so all of the Ghost Boundaries in his skill tree are on cooldown. Looking at these cooldowns, doesn't everyone feel like this is a very beautiful rhythm? I feel like if there was some background music, it would be even more wonderful. "
"Oh, now One Inch Ash is picking up the pace. The Ghost Boundaries are being released even faster. Right now, there's a total of one, two, three, four, five … I'm sorry, my friends, I don't know how many Ghost Boundaries there are, but One Inch Ash has suddenly gathered so many Ghost Boundaries. He's thinking of …"
"Ghost Feast!!!!"
"Beautiful, One Inch Ash has activated Ghost Feast. All of the Ghost Boundaries have exploded, directly taking away all of Anxious Ghost's remaining health. One Inch Ash has won, a beautiful win!" The commentator yelled.
