For normal players, when they saw an undefeatable opponent, they would think of surrendering. For experts and experts, even if they could not defeat their opponent, they would still surrender. They would rather fight a fierce battle. Although they would still lose, they would not choose to give up. The result was the same, but the process was different. This was like seeing a different person's heart and will.
A person's willpower and will determined their future!
Chu Rui was an assassin. No matter who the enemy was, as long as it was his target, he would not hesitate to complete the mission. However, he was also a person, not a weapon. When killing someone, whether it was a good person or a bad person, there would definitely be different feelings in his heart.
In the game world, killing people was just a matter of level. Especially in this arena, it was just a spar. There was no need to pay the most basic level price. However, Chu Rui would never be stingy with an opponent who deserved respect and attention. Whether or not the Warrior in front of him was worthy of his respect, he did not know. However, the fact that he had the courage to fight was enough to prove everything. Even if he had reached the Top 100 Elite Competition, he would not give up. However, one could see a lot from a person's expression. At least, Chu Rui saw a lot.
Chu Rui did not show any disdain or contempt for his opponent, but he also did not show any respect. His expression was calm, as if he did not care about the Warrior in front of him. However, his eyes were looking at the Warrior. This was enough to prove that he was looking at the Warrior. He was not so disgusted that he would not even look at the Warrior and trample on his pride.
Knowing that his opponent was Sly Hand, the Warrior no longer held any hope of winning. However, even if he had to cut off his means of retreat, he still had to prove his worth and see how big the gap between him and Sly Hand was.
Thirty seconds left!
The Top 100 Elite Competition gave the players enough time to react. Thirty seconds was the prelude to the battle. Everything that could be done should be done.
The Warrior was very calm. He did not say anything unnecessary and only summoned his pet. Then, a few seconds before the countdown, he quickly added all the necessary buffs to himself. If he did not go all out against Sly Hand, he would be courting death.
Fighting with one's back to the river could indeed give a strong pressure and stimulate one's potential, allowing one to explode with even more power. Unfortunately, this also depended on who he was facing. Willpower was indeed important, and perseverance was indeed valuable. However, in the face of absolute power, everything else was fleeting.
Looking at the warrior who was charging towards him, Chu Rui flicked his wrist and the Blade of Abstinence and the Dragon Slaying Dagger appeared in his hands.
In a head-on collision, Chu Rui was confident that he could defeat him within three seconds. However, he was a Thief. Even if he could kill the enemy directly, that would be the opposite of his fighting style. A Thief should act like one.
When dealing with Warriors, sometimes it was necessary to use stealth to sneak up on them. However, in the face of a Warrior charging straight at him, Stealth was no longer necessary.
With a turn of his body, Rui dodged to the side, dodging the Warrior's long sword slashing at him. The blade with traces of energy brushed past Chu Rui's body, only a few centimeters away.
"Swoosh …"
As expected of an elite who entered the top 100, seeing that Chu Rui dodged his attack, the warrior's arm muscles bulged. He forcefully changed the direction of his longsword, changing it from a slash to a slash, and fiercely slashed at Chu Rui's waist.
Too naive!
The corner of Chu Rui's mouth curled up, revealing a cold smile. With a turn of his body, he spun around the warrior like a spinning top in a 1080-degree circle. In the blink of an eye, he was behind the warrior.
Raising his hand as fast as lightning, he completed the attack in a flash.
After successfully stunning the Warrior with a Phantom Burst Stab, Nie Yan followed up with a Phantom Triple Slash, successfully eliminating more than half of the Warrior's HP. Then, Nie Yan kicked the Warrior's tiger pet as it pounced at him, easily killing the stunned Warrior with a normal attack.
The system notification sounded out, and Rui successfully won the first round of the competition, earning him 3 points!
In the virtual arena, although many players could watch the battle, it was not like the real arena where they could sit down and watch. There was no applause, no cheers! Chu Rui shrugged and directly teleported out of the arena.
As expected of the top 100, the quality was really good.
Narrowing his eyes, Chu Rui recalled the battle just now. If he did not have an absolutely overwhelming mental strength, speed, attack power, and awareness, he would not have won so easily. That Warrior could be said to be both offensive and defensive, and his attack power was very strong. The continuity of his moves was also good. The first slash was dodged, and then the slash became a slash at the waist. The speed was very fast and also very good. Unfortunately, he met Chu Rui, a monster-level existence.
To be able to achieve an instant kill in the top 100, it was estimated that only Chu Rui could do it. That Warrior's defense was very good. Unfortunately, Chu Rui had a divine weapon that ignored armor. All defense was like floating clouds in his eyes, without the slightest effect. Even so, with tens of thousands of attack power, critical hits, and skill damage, he was not able to insta-kill. This showed that this guy's defense and HP were very good. However, even if he could not insta-kill, insta-kill was not bad either! (Insta-Kill was to kill directly with one hit. Insta-Kill was to kill the enemy with one attack. In other words, it was a round of attacks. The enemy did not even have time to react or counterattack before they were killed.)
The reward for entering the top 100 was one million gold coins and a random Dark Gold equipment of the profession. The reward was very generous. One million gold coins was also one million RMB. This amount was a huge sum of money for the average player. Usually, no matter what level the player was at, farming money and spending money were similar. Especially for Chu Rui, if he repaired his whole body, it would be at least hundreds of thousands to millions. It was really not affordable. This was also under the condition that the forbidden equipment would never be worn out. If the forbidden equipment was repaired, the repair fee would make Chu Rui cry poor.
Because it was directly linked to real life, there were many professional players who specialized in farming money. Although it was hard and they did not earn much, in a month, if there were no accidents, they could earn tens of thousands. It was much better than white-collar workers. Generally speaking, any player, while playing the game, if the money they earned was used to buy potions and repair equipment, it would only be slightly insufficient. It would be just enough to break even or make a small profit. These three factors were determined by luck and karma. However, if equipment was dropped, then it was a profit. Instead of farming gold coins day and night, it was better to go to dungeons and the like. If a piece of equipment was dropped, then it would be a big profit. Moreover, the boredom of farming gold coins and the excitement of farming equipment made most people choose the latter. In this way, there was a huge consumption. After all, dungeons that could drop good equipment consumed a lot of potions and equipment durability. If one was not careful, they might even drop themselves. All these factors allowed the game to maintain a small balance.
