Chapter 553: Chapter 553 Thunderstorm
In fact, Li Yao did not enjoy these kinds of duels. It’s too difficult for the person he is now to find a genuine adversary.
There are always self-important individuals who think they can challenge him. Since Li Yao has experienced rebirth, he understands this well. Even if he only uses a low-level weapon and removes all his equipment, there are a few who can fight him with his skills, let alone when he is fully geared up.
As for these live-streaming tricks, they are merely attempts by his colleagues who want to climb over him to undermine him, and Li Yao has always disdained such manipulations. He believes that any deceptive plot is useless in front of absolute power.
Seeing the smugness and confidence on the face of Whirlwind Thunderstorm, others in Starfire also noticed that this guy must be relying on something.
You must know, before the instance dungeon was opened, Li Yao strung up so many experts singlehandedly. Everyone knows Li Yao’s strength. If he is so confident, he must have some special technique prepared for Li Yao.
“Be careful, it seems that the visitor is ill-intentioned,” sister Li warned.
The Unparalleled Demoness also added, “I thought they just wanted to delay time. I didn’t expect them to invest so much. This guy seems very familiar, probably a top expert. It seems that it’s not just one guild trying to deal with Starfire. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have such energy. This time, it seems they might be planning something big.”
Sister Li paused, and said, “You mean that he changed his name?”
The Unparalleled Demoness nodded and said, “Not just the name and appearance, but probably also the race. You know there are plenty such items in this game.”
Li Yao gestured casually and said, “No matter what techniques they have, we will deal with it. No matter how many changes they make, I will break them with a single punch.”
“Why isn’t he here yet, is he scared?” Whirlwind Thunderstorm hollered at Li Yao.
Li Yao walked towards his opponent indifferently, saying lightly, “You know very well that I wouldn’t engage in PVP lightly. That’s why you use such despicable means. It takes great pains. But let me clarify, I don’t want to PVP with you, not because I am scared of losing, but because there’s no sense of achievement in defeating you. It’s as easy as killing a chicken.”
“You are strong, but you are not invincible. I will end you today, and then we’ll see if you’re still burning,” Whirlwind Thunderstorm would not back down just as well.
Li Yao laughed lightly and said, “Really? Then I’m looking forward to it. If you can manage to force me to use my pet, I will consider it your win.”
“Damn it, you are asking for it.” Whirlwind Thunderstorm was originally going to send the challenge, but seeing Li Yao look down upon him, he threw caution to the wind and directly charged at Li Yao.
Li Yao grabbed two hand crossbows and casually joined them together.
A huge crossbow appeared in Li Yao’s hand. He loaded his Crossbow Arrow leisurely, as if the fast-charging Whirlwind Thunderstorm didn’t exist at all.
Charge!
Whirlwind Thunderstorm initiated the charge, the great sword in his hands flashing with blue electrical arcs.
Without even taking aim, Li Yao casually pulled the trigger.
A dark red Crossbow Arrow was shot out, and although it didn’t hit the target, everyone knew that Li Yao was aiming at his throat. This was confirmed by the analysis of Li Yao’s shooting habits by numerous people. They had reviewed Li Yao’s murder record and noticed his attack pattern: he always aimed for the throat, and most people died from a one-hit kill to the throat shot by Li Yao.
No one knew how this rumor spread, but most had accepted it, especially the experts. They felt like they had found Li Yao’s weakness.
Ding…
Whirlwind Thunderstorm, in the middle of his charge, horizontally held his great sword in front of his throat to block the shot.
He blocked the Crossbow Arrow, but the physical strength demonstrated by Li Yao was not something they could resist, even if he was a warrior.
“So, it’s just like this.” Whirlwind Thunderstorm said, coldly charging at Li Yao who was less than thirty yards from him.
“Another Thunder Fight? Unfortunately, you aren’t as good as War God.” Li Yao shook his head while continuing to load his Crossbow Arrow.
Whirlwind Thunderstorm looked grave. He didn’t anticipate that his Charge could be seen through just by a glance, although he has truly challenged the War God after his major boost in power. Although he was strong, he eventually lost to the War God.
“How dare you compare yourself with the War God—you worm, you’re asking for death.”
When he was about ten yards away from Li Yao, Whirlwind Thunderstorm suddenly halted, his great sword transformed into a lightning fast slash.
Zzzz….
Accompanied by the sparking electrical arcs, a blue Sword Qi darted towards Li Yao.
“Die!” Whirlwind Thunderstorm once again rushed at Li Yao, sword in hand.
Li Yao’s reaction was exceptionally swift. He avoided the Sword Qi with a sidestep, and the speedy Sword Qi brushed past his body, shattering the rocks behind Li Yao.
At the same moment, a Crossbow Arrow was shot out as Li Yao sidestepped.
Ding!
Whirlwind Thunderstorm once again blocked Li Yao’s Crossbow Arrow, but the enormous force sent him two steps back. He looked horrified.
Having blocked the Crossbow Arrow during his charge, his hands were already shaky.
The watching crowd erupted in applause. Although the two men’s exchange was brief and seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary, in reality, it was extremely perilous—a single misstep from either one could have resulted in instant death.
Tanuki’s commentary allowed ordinary players to understand the complex aspects of this encounter, pleasing the audience greatly.
Tanuki concluded, “Truly worthy to be the first person honored as the Profession King in this game. He is still playing around in this extreme battle. If he were to get serious, it would be downright terrifying.”
The crowd fell silent, all aware that Li Yao had not yet given his all. Many players didn’t believe it, given the high level of the fight. However, Whirlwind Thunderstorm’s next words confirmed Tanuki’s claim.
“Bastard, you’re so relaxed without using your pet. You’re too arrogant. If you don’t go all out, you won’t have a chance.” Whirlwind Thunderstorm said chillingly.
Li Yao continued loading his Crossbow Arrow leisurely, speaking calmly, “If I were serious, you would have already been knocked down. Then your trump card wouldn’t have a chance to come out. Both you and I would be disappointed. I’d like to see what special measures you’ve prepared to deal with me.”
“You overestimate yourself.” A hint of surprise flickered in Whirlwind Thunderstorm’s eyes, but it was gone in an instant. He then said, “Since you want to die, I’ll help you achieve that.”
“Whirlwind Thunderstorm, Kill!”
With Whirlwind Thunderstorm’s command, his body began to spin rapidly. A dark cloud appeared above him, followed by flashes of lightning.
Blue bolts of lightning continuously fell onto his body, turning him into an electric man within moments.
As he spun, Swords Qi suddenly shot out, and irregular, small electrical arcs darted around on the ground.
Everyone’s eyes were on Li Yao. The two of them were now too close. Trying to dodge attacks from both sides was no easy task…
