As soon as these words came out, the crowd went into an uproar.
One or two seconds of paralysis was called "not too lethal"?
In the world of cultivators, one second was enough to kill an enemy a hundred times!
"H-he made the same modifications to all of his artifacts?" A cultivator asked with wide eyes.
"Yes." Xie Tingxian faintly smiled.
Numerous cultivators turned their heads to look at the enormous hologram. They discovered that, regardless of whether it was Team Red or Team Blue, almost all of the melee artifacts of the contestants had been assembled by Li Yao. After carefully thinking about the consequences, they couldn't help but shudder at the same time.
This kid was really too despicable, too shameless, and too frightening!
"He's really amazing. At such a young age, he even learned the custom of the refiners' circle, 'Opening the Back Door'!"
A cultivator muttered to himself, intentionally or unintentionally sweeping a glance at Xie Tingxian.
In the circle of refiners, there was an unwritten rule. Many refiners, when refining magical equipment for their customers, were used to leaving behind some extremely tiny special structures in the magical equipment. Ordinary cultivators simply could not see through the mysteries of these structures, but to the refiners themselves, with these structures, they had grasped the "life gate" of these magical equipment.
Once there was a need, they could use these Life Gates to control the artifacts!
In the circle, this behavior was called "Opening the Back Door".
In the beginning, this was a method used by refiners to protect themselves. This was also to prevent others from taking the artifacts they refined and killing them with a backhand sword.
After all, compared to battle-type cultivators, refiners' combat strength was often weaker.
But over time, this behavior became the norm. In the veteran refiners' circle, it had practically become an open secret, becoming a kind of "Hidden Rule".
If one wanted to avoid opening the back door on an artifact, there was only one method — personally refining the artifact!
But today was different from the past. In the ancient world of self-cultivation 40000 years ago, all kinds of magic weapons were very simple. They were just some flying swords, flying knives, Qiankun bags, and so on. The Sky Flipping Seal was more complicated, so self-cultivators could certainly refine it by themselves.
But with the progress of the times, the division of labor in society continued to be refined, and the structure of magical equipment became more and more complicated. The study of refining had become an intricate, mysterious, and profound subject. It was very difficult to achieve anything without spending several decades of effort. And if one did not have the talent for refining, it would be even easier to achieve twice the result with half the effort. Even if one spent countless hours and painstaking efforts, they might not be able to comprehend the mysteries of the study of refining.
Ordinary battle-type cultivators didn't have the talent for refining, and it was even more impossible for them to spend several decades learning how to refine. Would they still want to fight? Would they still want to kill?
So, after weighing the pros and cons, even if they knew that there were loopholes in the artifact, they could only pinch their noses and endure. Either they could find a trustworthy refiner to refine the artifact, or they could find a trustworthy refiner to crack the "back door" after someone else had refined the artifact.
This kind of "attack and defense battle" of setting up a back door and cracking a back door was a very common "competition" in the refiners' circle. There were countless classic battle examples. Every refiner took pride in setting up a "back door" that others were unable to crack or even discover. They took pride in discovering and cracking the "back door" that others left behind.
Of course, not a single refiner would admit that they had set up a "back door" on their artifact.
Xie Tingxian twirled his beard and shook his head. "Aiya, although Student Li Yao's method is effective, it still goes against the professional ethics of refiners. It's somewhat inappropriate! If he enters Deep Sea University, we will definitely educate him properly. How can he casually set up a back door on his artifact? "
"Cut the crap!"
Quite a few cultivators glared at Xie Tingxian. Deep Sea University was the holy land of refiners. At the same time, it was also one of the origins of the vile practice of "opening a back door". It would be strange if they would "educate him properly". If Li Yao really did enter Deep Sea University, he would be like a fish in water. In just a few years, he would become an expert at opening a back door!
At the same time that everyone was speechless, in the northern part of Devil Flood Dragon Island, the four dots of light representing the other patrol squad of the Blue Team strangely extinguished.
In their place was a small red dot, stubbornly shining.
The second patrol squad had fallen into Li Yao's evil clutches!
At this moment, not to mention the cultivators in the monitoring center, even the 2,400 contestants in the hall outside had noticed Li Yao's existence.
Although the majority of the Blue Team's troops were still rampaging through the center of Devil Flood Dragon Island, killing in every direction, the two sneak attacks in the rear seemed to indicate that a small change was about to occur in the situation.
"Who is this guy? He's actually so fierce! He killed seven Blue Team contestants in a row!"
"There's something fishy about this. The seven Blue Team contestants all look somewhat foolish. They practically stretched out their necks and waited for him to kill them. Could it be that this guy is an expert in mental illusions and launched a mental attack on his enemies?"
"I know. This guy is from our university. His name is Li Yao. Don't look at his ordinary appearance. In reality, he's a super fierce person. Even Helian Lie can't do anything to him!"
"He's that powerful? Then we really have to pay attention to him! "
Helian Lie had quite a bit of fame in the entire Floating Spear City and even in the several surrounding towns and cities. In this Challenge Competition, his points had always ranked in the top ten. He was publicly recognized as an expert.
To be able to become Helian Lie's opponent, it was obvious that he was no ordinary person.
"Yeah, the third patrol squad was also hunted down by him. I say, these guys are really stupid. Why don't you guys fight back? What are you guys standing there for? Waiting for death? "
"Guys, do you think this kid will just kill his way through like this and make a heaven-shaking counterattack?"
"That's impossible. In a team confrontation, it's impossible to rely on just one person. The Blue Team has a genius commander like Gao Ye. They already have the upper hand. They won't be swayed that easily. Look, Gao Ye seems to have noticed the abnormality. He'll soon make a response!"
The contents of the red and blue team's communication channels were reflected in real time on the hologram. Therefore, the contestants who had withdrawn from the arena could all see Gao Ye's command and tactics.
In the communication channel, Gao Ye discovered that he hadn't been able to contact the rear patrol squad for a long time. He determined that there was certainly a valiant Red Team squad or a powerful Demon Beast behind the Blue Team.
He immediately ordered the majority of the troops to stop attacking and stay alert and wait for orders.
At the same time, he ordered the eight core combat units with the strongest combat strength to form a new patrol squad in pairs. They were to completely clean up the rear of the fish that had slipped through the net.
"Everyone must be on high alert. We can't let this temporary victory get to our heads. Before we kill the last Red Team contestant, there's always the possibility of a comeback! Right now, there's definitely a great enemy behind us. Wait until we figure out the enemy's details. First, we'll eliminate this great enemy. Then, we'll crush the remnants of the enemy at the front! "
Gao Ye made a prompt decision. His voice was calm and unhurried. He had quite the demeanor of a great general!
His tactics were quickly effective.
After exterminating the last patrol squad that was originally wandering north of Devil Flood Dragon Island, Li Yao was tangled up with a new patrol squad!
This patrol squad was composed of seven contestants. Each and every one of them was as tall as a bull and as large as a horse. Their eyes were bright and full of expression, and their temples were bulging. Their strength was incomparably valiant.
