267: Tie Shengnan's confidence
The entire live stream was filled with suffocating silence.
What exactly did Huang Chen release?
Soul Devouring Bees!! Battle pets that could rapidly age people!! All attacks could only deal one point of damage to them!! Their numbers were endless!
Then, the bullet screen in the live stream completely exploded, no longer text, but a pure, fear-filled symbol spam:
"baka, Huang Chen released a huge nest of these bees in our main city. Getting stung hurts terribly, it seems to attack people's souls, and no matter how high your attack, this creature only takes one point of damage."
"Holy crap! Holy crap! Doesn't having this battle pet make him invincible? Losing one point at a time, who can beat him! And seeing Cang Yue unable to even surrender just now shows how powerful these Soul Devouring Bees are..."
"It's as if you could beat God Huang even without the Soul Devouring Bees... In my opinion, God Huang could make you beg for mercy even with both his hands and feet tied!"
"@Endless Fire Domain @Guardian @Thunder... You all... take care..."
...Soon, the second match began.
[Under Heaven Guild VS Endless Fire Domain Guild]
As soon as the match started, Xiong Ba summoned Overlord Saber and charged straight at Zhu Rong, who immediately teleported backward.
Those who reached the top eight in the Ladder Challenge Tournament were basically studied under a microscope, so they had already prepared corresponding strategies before the match.
Xiong Ba's system was Guihai Yidao, a single saber strike that could move mountains, sever rivers, and overturn seas... Its attack power was immense, its range was extremely long, and in every arena match, Xiong Ba relied on this saber strike to kill the opposing Child of Destiny and secure victory.
Zhu Rong's system, Endless Fire Domain, was somewhat similar to Huang Chen's Li Fire Domain, both greatly increasing fire element attacks. However, Zhu Rong's Endless Fire Domain had a greater amplification, and Zhu Rong could teleport freely within the Fire Domain.
It must be said that skills like teleportation and transmission were a bug at the current level. Although Guihai Yidao was strong, he couldn't even touch a hair on Zhu Rong. In the end, Xiong Ba was kited to death by Zhu Rong in the Fire Domain, and the battle between their guild members was even more one-sided.
Most of Under Heaven Guild were Metal Element Users. How could they withstand the bombardment of amplified Fire Element users?
Ultimately, the Endless Fire Domain Guild emerged victorious, securing a spot in the semifinals.
And for the next two matches,
[Vast Sea Surging Tides Guild VS Guardian Guild]
The Guardian Guild was victorious.
Lan Qingwu, the leader of Vast Sea Surging Tides, possessed a system that greatly enhanced Water Element users attacks.
However, she encountered Chen Feng, who was like a hedgehog. Chen Feng's system was a hundredfold self-reflect damage, and in addition to his own reflect damage, he also had a derived Thorns Halo, providing five times reflect damage to teammates within the Halo.
Currently, the Guardian Guild was almost unbeatable in guild arena matches, with calls for them to win the championship second only to the Forbidden City Guild.
In the other match, [Five Poisons Guild VS Thunder Guild], the Five Poisons Guild won without any suspense.
Lei Laohu was originally known for his large attack range and strong attack power, but he happened to encounter the Five Poisons Guild.
Wood overcomes earth; Ouyang Feng's assassins completely suppressed the Thunder Guild members, and Lei Laohu unwillingly died within Ouyang Feng's Toad Spitting Breath Domain.
At this point, the top four were decided, and the 5th-8th place playoffs quickly began.
In the first match, Illusionary Realm Guild VS Under Heaven Guild, Illusion Realm conceded.
In the second match, Vast Sea Surging Tides VS Thunder Guild, Earth overcomes Water, and Thunder won.
Ultimately, Xiong Ba defeated Thunder, and the rankings from fifth to eighth were [Under Heaven Guild], [Thunder Guild], [Vast Sea Surging Tides Guild], and [Illusionary Realm Guild].
The Illusionary Realm Guild, originally a favorite to take second place, ended up in eighth after angering Huang Chen, who killed even their Child of Destiny, leading them to concede two matches. This drew countless sighs of regret from the audience.
Before, most people only knew of Huang Chen's strength but not his character. After this incident, everyone witnessed Huang Chen's ruthlessness.
After the 5th-8th place matches concluded, the semifinals quickly commenced.
First match: [Forbidden City Guild VS Guardian Guild]
Second match: [Five Poisons Guild VS Endless Fire Domain Guild]
Looking at the match schedule, Chen Feng's face was so gloomy it looked like it would drip water.
In the individual Ladder Challenge Tournament, he was tricked by Rahu's level 40 silver battle pet... but then he thought that in the guild arena matches, these battle pets would be completely useless against him, and his spirits soared.
Unexpectedly, he really didn't expect Huang Chen to bring out such a special battle pet as the Soul Devouring Bees... According to someone from the Sakura Clan in the live stream, getting stung by these bees was an agony worse than death.
And how large was Huang Chen's Bee Swarm?
Even if he could swat away the Soul Devouring Bees stinging him, he couldn't withstand so many of them!
As the system announced the start of the first semifinal match, the Forbidden City Guild and the Guardian Guild were simultaneously teleported to the arena.
During the countdown, Chen Feng suddenly had an idea. He cupped his fists towards Huang Chen and shouted, "God Huang!! I've long admired your name!"
Huang Chen smiled and nodded at the other party as a greeting.
Seeing that Huang Chen didn't speak, Chen Feng quickly continued, "I've long heard of God Huang's great name! I've always hoped to have a fair fight with Forbidden City..."
"However... if God Huang releases the Soul Devouring Bees, then I can only reluctantly concede. I wonder if God Huang dares to face us head-on without using the Soul Devouring Bees?"
"Oh?" Huang Chen looked at Chen Feng playfully. After all that talk, it turned out he had this little scheme. He then looked at Tie Shengnan.
Tie Shengnan had lost a match to Chen Feng in the individual Ladder Challenge Tournament and had been sullen ever since. Now, facing him again, her eyes burned with immense Battle Intent.
She nodded faintly at Huang Chen, then turned to Chen Feng and loudly declared, "No battle pets, and Huang Chen doesn't need to make a move either... Let's fight!"
Hearing Tie Shengnan's words, a hint of surprise appeared on Chen Feng's face. He looked at Huang Chen and asked, "Are you sure you won't make a move?"
"Yes!" Huang Chen said, "If you can kill all of them, then I'll make a move!"
“...”
"Doesn't that still mean you'll make a move!" Chen Feng rolled his eyes, then thought about it. How could the other party gamble away the first-place reward for the arena match out of temporary pique? It seemed this round was destined to fail, but even if he failed, he would suppress Forbidden City's arrogance.
With no battle pets and Huang Chen not making a move, he couldn't imagine how the other side could be confident of winning against him.
His thousand-person setup consisted of 800 pure tanks, 100 healers, and 100 damage dealers.
Five times reflect damage! He didn't believe any guild from a new race could maintain attack power after their health reached five times theirs.
"You're underestimating me too much..."
Hearing Huang Chen say he might make a move, Tie Shengnan glanced at him defiantly and said, "I have 100% confidence in winning against them!"
