"Black Chess Warrior, in the Building Foundation Stage, 89 wins, 34 losses, 79% synchronization rate!"
He seemed to be a common top-tier expert, but the competition between him and Vulture was rather weird.
The battlefield where they were fighting was the 'Scorching Desert'. The temperature was as high as five hundred degrees, and the quicksand that was as smooth as water was full of cavities. If one stepped into one carelessly, half of one's body would be buried in the sand. Dust was flying everywhere. If one flew in midair for a long time, the power rune arrays might malfunction easily.
It was a seemingly peaceful map, but a lot of dangers were lurking in it.
Black Chess Player and Vulture's movements were somewhat clumsy. They were like two cautiously circling each other. Occasionally, they would take a few steps toward their opponent, but most of the time, their opponent would retreat before they could even move, lurking in their own safe zone.
It was only in the few seconds after circling for a long time, when all the spectators were yawning, that the two Crystal Suits suddenly glittered and collided with each other in the blink of an eye.
But when everyone opened their eyes wide and held their breaths in concentration, they separated again and tirelessly started drawing circles again.
Such a monotonous and tedious contest could not help but make most of the audience feel bored.
However, in the eyes of such an expert as Lone Walker, it was a silent duel that could only be heard from a thunderclap.
Black Chess Player, as his name suggested, was like the most brilliant chess player, who was playing a fatal game of chess without batting an eyelid. He had set up countless vicious traps in the game, only to be resolved by Vulture time and time again.
Occasionally, Vulture pretended to be tricked, too. As it turned out, he would set up new traps inside Black Chess Warrior's traps. Black Chess Warrior was almost fooled several times, but it was only in the last half second. With his keen senses for danger, he managed to survive the calamity by a hair's breadth!
Such a gripping competition could not be missed for even half a second. Behind the calmness was the most thrilling secret battle!
Twenty-one minutes later, a terrifying hole was finally pierced through Eight Arm's chest. Vulture failed for the first time!
Lone Walker, on the other hand, admired Vulture even more than before.
It was because he had gotten in touch with 'Black Chess Warrior' before. Through a special channel, he found out that "Black Chess Player" was just a smurf. The person behind the Black Chess Player was the ace player of the Death Ray Arena, one of the Five Great Arenas!
"An ace Exo of the five major arenas had to fight Vulture for more than twenty minutes before he could finish him off!"
Lone Walker was astonished. He sighed repeatedly.
…
Li Yao was extremely excited.
To be able to fight to his heart's content with all kinds of experts, and even die under the fiercest techniques of his opponents, was the greatest enjoyment for a madman in the Crystal Suit like him.
"This' Black Chess Player 'is truly awesome. His strategy is as good as mine. Chances are that his computational ability is even better than mine. What a tough opponent!"
"It is a shame that this body is too weak. It can't perform many of the xenogeneic moves. It died after being poked in the chest. It's not fun at all! "
Li Yao curled his lips.
In the world of the Crystal Suit, the virtual bodies were more or less the same. They were all simulated according to the average strength of the mid-level Building Foundation Stage.
Li Yao's body was different. After thousands of trials, and after receiving the heritage of Iron God Yan Ba, a body fundamentalist, the primitive strength of the primeval beasts had been activated. The hardness of his body was hundreds of times higher than that of common Cultivators!
It was no exaggeration to say that he was a primeval beast in human skin!
If it were in reality … His speed and strength would be at least 60% higher than in the virtual world. The blow that hit his chest just now, even if it had pierced through his chest, wouldn't have been enough to make him lose his combat ability. He still had more than ten ways to kill 'Black Chess Player'!
However, his purpose was not to win or lose but to grasp the fighting style of the Crystal Suit of the Flying Star Sector as soon as possible so that he could make up for his shortcomings.
Li Yao didn't think too much of the failure. He smiled and entered the next match.
From that day on, Li Yao went crazy on the virtual competition platform!
Since he had a winning rate of more than 90% on the first day and defeated a famous expert such as Lone Walker, it was much easier for him to find other experts to challenge later on.
However, Li Yao did not use the Eight Arm Crystal Suit all the time. He also chose more than ten classic crystal suits of the Flying Star Sector so that he could win a hundred battles if he knew his enemy well.
His tactics were exactly the same. At first, he resisted the stormy attacks of the experts of the Flying Star Sector with his unparalleled defense ability. Then, he observed the enemy's seemingly immaculate movements and looked for the fleeting gap. Then, he took advantage of the environment and set up traps. Together with his positioning, he made more and more of the loopholes. In the end, he launched a fatal attack with a seemingly common move!
Very soon, the name 'Vulture' spread out in the virtual competition platform, just like 'Fiend Star' a few days ago.
Many people were discussing the mysterious Vulture in the comment section. They were all speculating about his real identity.
Some people were even wondering why he had won the matches with the simplest moves without using any techniques.
There were also people who used his attacks as a model to study and analyze.
Li Yao was more or less surprised by the situation. In the next few days, he adjusted his capability on purpose. Even if he found a fatal flaw during the match, he would often ignore it on purpose and only make a note of it.
Sometimes, when he could have dodged the attacks, he would slow down and take them through brute force, in order to improve his resistance ability.
His winning rate was maintained at around 65%, which was above average among the Building Foundation Stage Cultivators. It was enough to challenge most of the top experts without attracting too much attention.
In the Q&A section, he was still communicating with other experts under the name 'Fiend Star' with the halo of 'expert in classical refining theories'.
In the past month, Li Yao had a lot of fun. Both his theoretical and practical capabilities were improving rapidly.
At this moment, the Thousand Sails Space Zone was right in front of his eyes.
"The Thousand Sails Space Zone is right ahead!"
It had been more than three months since the annihilation of the space pirates of Storm Prison, through the Dim Flame Belt, and with the broken Gold Horn, to the Thousand Sails Space Zone, the base camp of the free Exos.
It had been almost half a year since the Great Horn Exo Society accepted the offer of a bag of rice.
Time was always so long in the sea of stars. Now that the destination was right in front of them, everybody on the starship was overjoyed. Even Li Yao couldn't help but feel excited.
Before he could roar to express his excitement, he had already been pushed to the ground by Zhao Nuo and the other young men from the 'Tiger Killer Camp'. Almost ten muscular men were hugging him.
"Brother Yao, we did it!"
"We've finally arrived at the Thousand Sails Space Zone!"
"Hoho. Hot spring, strong liquor, beautiful girls, here I come!"
The bridge was surrounded by a panoramic light beam. The shell of the starship seemed to have melted in the blink of an eye. Everybody was in the middle of a sea of stars.
In front of them was an extremely lively space zone. Starships, space fortresses, and asteroids were everywhere. All the artificial celestial bodies had silver metal membranes that were hundreds of times larger than the actual body. Colorful colors were beaming out of the membranes, making them look like sails made of rainbows.
That was how the Thousand Sails Space Zone got its name.
Sailing in the sea of stars was naturally unnecessary. Even if one intended to make use of a nebula storm, they would not usually make use of sails because nebula storms were often mixed with meteorite showers, which would cause great damage to the sails.
However, in the Thousand Sails Space Zone, there were dozens of belts of spiritual energy where spiritual energy was particularly condensed. They were like 'rivers of spiritual energy'. The magical equipment that opened like sails was used to collect spiritual energy.
Spiritual energy could not be seen with the naked eye, but it could be detected with special crystal cameras. The light beams around the cockpit were flashing nonstop. In the seemingly dark sea of stars, quite a few translucent ribbons of light appeared. They were red, orange, green, blue, and purple, flowing slowly in the middle of the sea of stars like heavenly rivers.
Before Gold Horn entered the Thousand Sails Space Zone, a set of 'sails' for collecting spiritual energy had been installed in the previous supply point. They were slowly unfurling at this moment.
Around the starship, eight metal membranes dozens of kilometers long were unfurled. Every silver metal membrane was carved with complicated runes, which were shivering at a subtle frequency, while they lunged at one of the blue rivers of spiritual energy!
Hum! Hum!
The metal membranes fluctuated and began to collect spiritual energy.
The spiritual waves floating in the vacuum were captured by the rune arrays on the metal membranes and leaked into the veins of the metal membranes. Then, after a series of complicated transformations, they were gathered above the bridge along the tubes of spiritual energy.
Chi!
Above the bridge, the dragon head was opened. The purest spiritual energy was condensed into countless tiny drops of water in the form of 'atomization' and sprinkled down. Everybody was bathed in the brilliance of spiritual energy!
"Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! "
Li Yao shuddered hard. After the battle against Skeleton Dragon, the space jump between two Sectors, and the fierce battles in the Flying Star Sector, the shower of spiritual energy that he was showered with made every cell in his body exclaim in satisfaction.
Everyone in the surroundings roared madly and danced with joy. The exhaustion in their bodies was swept away.
"No wonder the Thousand Sails Space Zone has become the base of the free Exos. It is indeed a pleasure to rest in such a natural paradise after so many bloody battles!"
"I'm told that in some of the resorts in the Thousand Sails Space Zone, there are two dragon heads side by side in the hotels. When one of them is turned on, water will flow out, and when the other is turned on, spiritual energy will spurt out incessantly. What a paradise!"
A brand-new light beam was slowly unfolded in front of everybody. Beautiful resorts and training residences, as well as well-equipped maintenance workshops, refining workshops, magical equipment stores, arenas, and competition venues, were flashing on the picture.
All the information was gathered into a line of glittering, octagonal words.
