As expected, a peak-level expert wasn't easy to deal with. Chu Rui's expression was cold as he threw a cold glance at the blood-colored cherry blossom and Yuan Zhengshou. Coincidentally, they were looking over as well. Their gazes met, and before they made a move, their auras clashed.
The blood-colored cherry blossom's aura was sharp, as if it was filled with an extremely thick stench of blood. It was violent and cruel, wanting to kill, annihilate, and destroy everything. On the other hand, Yuan Zhengshou's aura was relatively conservative. It was continuous and there was no precise definition. It wasn't right to say that he was domineering or sinister … He was either ever-changing or hidden and wasn't discovered.
Chu Rui had seen the blood-colored cherry blossom attack before. It was extremely sharp, and the killing intent was too strong. It belonged to the category where there was no turning back. Moreover, it was a sinister and domineering method. As for Yuan Zhengshou, Chu Rui had never seen him attack. To be able to get into the top four, even an idiot would know that he was very strong. From his aura, one could definitely tell that he was a peak-level expert.
Other than him, the only peak-level expert that China knew of was God's Hand. Xing Tian was infinitely close to the peak, but he was still a hair's breadth away. As for Japan, it was unexpected that there were two peak-level experts as well — the blood-colored cherry blossom and Yuan Zhengshou. In comparison, Chu Rui felt that Yuan Zhengshou was more terrifying and hard to grasp. After all, the blood-colored cherry blossom had already found her definition. In that case, it would be much easier to deal with her. Yuan Zhengshou was still unknown, but Chu Rui knew nothing about him. Yuan Zhengshou's aura was constantly changing and was hard to grasp. Before they really made a move, there was no way to define him.
Retracting his aura, Chu Rui focused his gaze and walked toward the arena.
The last person went up. The host looked at the time and instantly announced the start of the top four.
"Who did Xing Tian lose to?"
Chu Rui suddenly asked God's Hand in a soft voice.
"Me."
God's Hand smiled bitterly.
"Mmm."
Chu Rui's face twitched. He didn't expect that there would be internal strife in the top eight yesterday. Damn, this was really a scam.
"Sigh, my luck isn't good."
God Hands shrugged helplessly. It was unknown if he was talking about Xing Tian or Huaxia.
Honestly speaking, other than Chu Rui and that Yuan Zhengshou whose depth was unknown, God's Hand and the blood-colored cherry blossom had mostly relied on their strength to enter the top four. However, they had also relied on some luck. They probably hadn't encountered a peak-level expert like Sakra. Otherwise, it would be a question whether they would be able to make it this far. For someone like Sakra who had bad luck, even if he had the strength to enter the top four or even the finals, it was a pity that he had encountered a freak like Chu Rui in advance, causing him to fall miserably early and stop at the top eight or even before that.
No matter what, most of the people who were able to come here were aiming to be the champion. As long as they wanted to be the champion, they had to meet strong experts. It didn't matter, they would meet them sooner or later. Those who wanted to meet weak opponents were just here to be bystanders. Champion? Dream on.
Two from Japan and two from China.
Damn, please don't let this turn into an internal conflict.
Chu Rui looked at the system's specially made lottery machine and his lips twitched. If there was an internal conflict, then it would definitely turn into the final battle between China and Japan. If not, maybe China could still be the champion. As for other possibilities, it was impossible. Because he, Chu Rui, would definitely not lose. No matter how strong Yuan Zhengshou was, he, Chu Rui, would never lose. The only key point was to see if God's Hand could suppress a Japanese.
Of course, this was under the premise that there was no internal conflict. Right now, everything wasn't revealed. No one knew if it would be China against China or Japan against Japan.
The machine continued to spin and under the gaze of everyone in the world, it finally came to a stop.
The results were out.
China Region's Sly Hand against Japan Region's blood-colored cherry blossom.
China Region's God's Hand against Japan Region's Yuan Zhengshou.
Chu Rui's eyes narrowed. After exchanging a glance with God's Hand, he walked down the stage.
Facing this extraordinarily beautiful woman in front of him, but in reality, she was definitely an assassin. Who knows how much blood she had on her hands, Rui did not have the slightest expression. A pitiful person must have a hateful side. In the beginning, he was too weak, too extreme, and that was why he walked the path of an assassin. After three years of ups and downs, countless times he almost fell into the darkness, unable to extricate himself. Even if fate was like this, and fate made fools of people, this was still inseparable from his own cowardice.
Without any superfluous words, even the basic etiquette was skipped. Chu Rui was too arrogant and this blood-colored cherry blossom was too cold. Both of them weren't talkative people. Hence, they just waited coldly for the countdown to end.
The spectating players were also shocked by the cold aura of the two. All of them opened their eyes wide, afraid that they would miss the exciting battle that was about to happen.
'Ding! Entering random map matching mode.'
'Selected map, forest.'
'Downloading, 1%, 99%, 98%, 97% …'
The space distorted and the view changed.
In an instant, Chu Rui went from the empty stage to the forest filled with dense trees.
They were 30 meters apart, but the location that the system had arranged was amazing. Chu Rui and the blood-colored cherry blossom could see each other at a glance.
Facing such a ferocious existence like Chu Rui, the blood-colored cherry blossom didn't wave her hand and kill her opponent instantly like she did in her previous match. Instead, she immediately took out her weapon, a small dagger.
Playing with daggers, interesting.
Chu Rui looked at the small dagger and couldn't help but sneer. She was simply displaying her slight skill in front of an expert.
With a sway of his body, Chu Rui quickly ran forward. Through his Heaven's Eye, he found that this blood-colored cherry blossom was very agile. Combined with her weapon, she should be an assassin type of hidden class. Just like him, there were only two ways for an assassin to fight another assassin. The first was to fight in a straightforward manner and use their aura to suppress the opponent. The second was to use techniques, sneak attacks, assassinations, poisons, and stun the opponent.
To Chu Rui, his attributes definitely surpassed that of the blood-colored cherry blossom. Hence, he would definitely force the blood-colored cherry blossom to fight him head-on. That way, his chances of winning would be higher. Even though Chu Rui was extremely confident that he wouldn't lose to the blood-colored cherry blossom in terms of techniques, it wasn't as fast as the first method.
Passing through the forest, Rui and Sanguine Cherry Blossom's speed was extremely fast. The distance of 30 metres was covered by the two of them, and in a second, they had already touched each other.
Whoosh …
