"The Battle of the Butterfly is about to begin. Your data will be loaded in thirty seconds. Please do not leave the log-in lobby.
Ten seconds before loading. Nine, eight, seven … two, one. "
After the countdown ended, the system audio entered his ears. "The Jade Butterfly pierces through the flowers, a day of flying and fighting."
Following these two sentences, Feng Bujue was transported into the scenario.
"Download complete. You are currently playing the Tournament for the Best — Battle of the Butterfly.
"This mode does not have a scenario introduction, hidden side quest, or unique world view.
"Reward for winning the scenario: Advance to the Tournament for the Best.
"Main quest triggered.
"Kill your opponent."
Soon, the white light faded away from Feng Bujue's eyes, and his body regained the ability to move.
He stood in the center of an ancient Roman colosseum, surrounded by ring-shaped stands, but there were no spectators in the stands.
Above him, the sky was high, and the sun was shining brightly.
Around him, it was quiet.
About twenty meters before Brother Jue stood a female player.
Xu Huai Shang was in the prime of her life. She was tall and slender. Her face was beautiful, and her skin was fair. She was an unforgettable woman. The uniform of the Red Sakura Society complemented her presence perfectly. She wore a long white dress with the picture of a blood sakura on it. It fluttered in the breeze, and she looked like a fairy.
In contrast, Feng Bujue … from his appearance, he could be considered quite handsome, but there was an eerie and strange presence that radiated from him. His lazy expression and listless eyes made it hard for others to guess what he was thinking.
…
"What … Is that Feng Bujue? Is he really the player ranked second on the battle ranking? Could there be a mistake? "
"Hey, hey … Is that Joker's style? This guy must be a chuunibyou. Does he have any real skills … "
"So, Feng Bujue is that b * stard! If this kid dares to touch my Shang Shang, he will pay for it with his life! "
In the market, Xu Huai Shang's supporters (normal fans, fanatics, personal guards, etc …) were obviously not very friendly towards Brother Jue. Even though this was to be expected, for Feng Bujue to create such an atmosphere as soon as he appeared, it was indeed a bit over the top …
"Hello everyone, the Battle of the Butterfly that everyone has been waiting for is finally here." The commentator's voice sounded on the big screen, "I am the commentator, Hwa Xiong."
"I'm Pan Feng," Pan Feng said from the side.
"Today, I will naturally bring you another focal battle." Hwa Xiong continued, "Both sides are VIP players, or 'seeded players.' I'm sure everyone is very familiar with one of them. That's right, she is Red Cherry's number one player, the goddess in the hearts of millions of players - Xu Huai Shang. "
The audience under the main screen cheered. It looked like Xu Huai Shang's popularity was indeed shocking. In the market, there was no lack of her fans.
"And the other player …" Pan Feng continued. His tone turned strange, probably because he was reminded of some unpleasant memories, "is a mysterious expert. Over the past month, his name has spread to every corner of Thriller Paradise, but no one has seen him in person … Today, we will find out how powerful he really is!"
Obviously, what followed next was a chorus of boos … Even though the two players themselves could not hear the noise, Xu Huai Shang's fans still tried their best to express their stance.
"Okay, as shown on the screen, the match has officially begun," Hwa Xiong said. "We can see that the two players are facing each other in the middle of the field, and neither has made the first move."
Pan Feng tried to find a topic to talk about. "This is a battle between experts … Without knowing the other's background, no one will make a move recklessly. Based on my prediction … this battle will most likely start with long-ranged attacks. "
The two of them were quite clever. They cut into the main topic of the battle and did not discuss the situation between Feng Bujue and Xu Huai Shang. Since these two players chose to remain anonymous on the combat stat ranking, it was not convenient for the game developers to discuss their ranking.
…
At the same time, the battle in the coliseum continued.
Xu Huai Shang's weapon was a blade.
Twin blades, a pair of short blades that were not that long.
There were scabbards on both sides of her belt.
At that moment, the blades were inside the scabbards, and her hands were beside the scabbards.
However, Xu Huai Shang did not move for a long time.
Facing this mysterious Feng Bujue before her, she was obviously cautious. Naturally, she had heard the rumor that this man was ranked second on the combat stat ranking. But the studio could not find any information on this man, and that made her feel even more unsettled.
"The appearance is clean, clean, and cultured … He does not look that strong …" Xu Huai Shang thought to herself. "Even though the outfit is unique, upon closer inspection … they should be cheap goods. They are not that useful. Other than normal pockets, there are no weapons or scabbards …" Her eyes wandered up and down Brother Jue's body. "But I cannot rule out the possibility that this is a kind of disguise, or perhaps … confidence …"
At that moment, Brother Jue suddenly moved. He inexplicably knelt down on one knee …
"What is he doing … proposing?" Xu Huai Shang's heart skipped a beat. They were several meters apart, but she still instinctively took half a step back.
The next second, Feng Bujue calmly activated his skill and summoned a weird-looking primary school student.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss … Is it my turn to appear again …" Musashi displayed his wretched figure and smiled sinisterly.
Actually, the reason Brother Jue suddenly knelt down on one knee was to fulfill the condition of this summoning skill — 'perform a weird action'.
Xu Huai Shang soon realized that as well, but her speculation was … the activation condition of the man's summoning skill was to 'kneel down on one knee'.
"Could it be that he is a summoner?" Xu Huai Shang thought to herself. "But his summoned creature does not look that strong … Could it be some kind of super powerful summoned creature that uses psychic power or magic?"
Just as the suspicion rose in her heart, Brother Jue whispered something into Musashi's ear. Then the latter turned around with a wicked smile and ran away … and he ran further and further away until he left the coliseum.
"What is going on … Could I have guessed correctly?" Xu Huai Shang looked at the scene before her. She did not move but she still opened her mouth to test the waters. "You want this summoned creature to hide in the dark … and ambush me from afar?"
"Ambush me from the dark … Hehehe …" At this point, Feng Bujue used a trick that he learned from Woody — answer a question with a question and then add a wicked smile to it.
This was a very nasty trick, but it was very practical. After using it, there was a high chance that it would enrage the opponent and it would create some psychological pressure. If you do not believe me, you can try it on other people at school or work … For example, in class, the teacher asked you, "When was the Xin Hai Revolution?" You answered, "The Xin Hai Revolution … Hehehe …" The leader at work asked you, "Where is the report that I asked you to do this morning?" You laughed darkly and said, "Report … Hehehehe …" Then you put on an expression that said, "That thing has already been used by me to clean up my own mess."
In any case, this trick was tried and tested and it was very powerful. There was no sense of life or death, so please use it with caution, hehehe …
Back to the topic … Obviously, Brother Jue's action earlier was purely to make use of the scenario to complete his' character mission '. Because he only had two more chances left to complete the mission of' using the summoning skill and successfully summoning the summoned creature 50 times'. Therefore, he had to give it up whenever he had the chance.
But Xu Huai Shang did not know that. With Brother Jue's psychological tactic, she was placed under a layer of psychological pressure. But she had no idea … the thing that she was worried about was a non-combat summoned creature that had already left the battlefield …
"If you don't want to tell me, then so be it." Xu Huai Shang's brows furrowed slightly. There was a trace of anger. She added, "In the middle of a battle … you have no obligation to tell me that." As she spoke, she gripped both her swords and was ready to attack. "No matter what your fighting style is, I will …" Her words stopped abruptly because Feng Bujue had done something else.
"What the … He took out a stool from his inventory …" Xu Huai Shang looked at the scene before her and she could not help but grumble internally.
Brother Jue held the stool and waved it in the air several times. It was like a baseball player warming up before hitting a ball. His movements were quite professional.
After doing all that, he took a deep breath and turned to look at Xu Huai Shang. "I am also a man who cares about women." He paused for a moment. "So … you'll soon be free from this violent competition."
