Chapter 6: It doesn't matter if it's dirty or not, just tell me if I won.
Ling Chen's movements didn't stop. He didn't even lift his head, saying faintly, "That's not necessarily true. Who says you can't win if you don't hit?"
After he unleashed that Sky Strike.
Cracks slowly appeared on the stone floor of the Arena.
Immediately after, the corner of the Arena actually started to loosen and gradually fall off!
"That's why I say you're stupid. It makes sense. If I can't drain his health, why don't I just not hit him?"
Ling Chen smiled faintly, and then, a small part of the Arena shattered and fell into the abyss!
At this point, Ye Xiu finally understood Ling Chen's objective.
The Arena was suspended in the air, with an impassable abyss below.
If one fell, they would suffer instant death.
Normally, the Arena was surrounded by impenetrable air walls, so there was no risk of falling.
However, glory's physics engine was very realistic.
The Arena could be destroyed, but due to its thick base, it was usually extremely difficult to break.
But he didn't expect Ling Chen to be able to break it.
Chen Guo was dumbfounded.
"This thing can actually be broken? You, you, you... how did you do it?"
Ye Xiu, who was beside her, was much calmer; in fact, his eyes gleamed.
This kind of playstyle... was quite dirty.
Even dirtier than his own.
However, Ye Xiu didn't reject it; instead, he was very interested in this kind of playstyle.
He said faintly, "He used my attacks to destroy the load-bearing node in the northwest corner of the Arena."
"Then, by breaking the last connecting stone wall, the entire Arena couldn't bear the weight and broke apart!"
Ling Chen chuckled, "It's easy to talk to smart people, unlike some people who are like two different species from us, with no common language."
Although the outcome was not yet decided, both of them actually knew the result of this match.
Ye Xiu's position was struck down by Ling Chen. He needed to move forward to avoid falling into the abyss and suffering instant death.
Zhu Yanxia, controlled by Ye Xiu, continuously jumped onto the stone blocks, trying her best to leap onto the ground.
But Ling Chen was standing right in front of him, holding his gun.
A powerful aura enveloped his entire body.
He raised his hand and swung, a simple Sky Strike, which had been waiting for Ye Qiu for a long time.
Sky Strike, as the most basic attack skill for a Dou Fa (Battle Mage), could be learned at level one, and its damage was not high.
But at this moment, it was so important and insurmountable!
Bang! Sky Strike collided with Zhu Yanxia's body, and Zhu Yanxia was immediately knocked back uncontrollably, falling into the endless abyss!
As Zhu Yanxia descended to a certain height, the instant kill mechanism activated, pulverizing Zhu Yanxia into a bloody mist!
The game screen settled, and Ling Chen won the match.
Ye Xiu, at this moment, didn't have much emotional fluctuation from winning or losing.
His expression was normal, and a subtle, unknown smile even appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I lost." Ye Xiu admitted it very straightforwardly.
"Ah? You..."
"This is cheating, maliciously exploiting a bug, it doesn't count!" Chen Guo was completely distraught when she saw the end time of 39.58 seconds.
"Boss, of course it counts. Look, has the system settled? Has the time frozen? Has the character been killed?" Ling Chen rubbed his palms and laughed.
Chen Guo's expression froze, and her tone was urgent: "It settled, it froze, it killed, but, normal PK isn't played like this!"
"Of course it can be, since the official made the Arena destructible, it means the official acknowledges this playstyle. If they didn't, they would have just made it invincible, right?" Ling Chen replied.
"You're right, but..." Even so, Chen Guo instinctively felt that something was wrong.
"No one plays like this doesn't mean it can't be played like this. With your level, there's still a lot you don't know." Ling Chen was satisfied, and the thought of earning a full five hundred yuan made him grin from ear to ear.
"Don't inquire too much about what experts do. Just learn!"
Chen Guo: "Alright, alright, you're an expert, you're amazing. Why don't you go play professional matches and stomp Ye Qiu too?"
Ye Xiu: "..."
It seemed Chen Guo still didn't know that Ye Qiu was Ye Xiu.
Ling Chen glanced at Ye Xiu. Suppressing the laughter in his heart, he said, "Ye Qiu is indeed very strong, but, I'm not afraid of him."
"Here we go again, here we go again. Last time you stomped a professional player, this time you're going to stomp Ye Qiu, right? Why don't you win ten championships?" Chen Guo said indignantly.
Her mood was already sour from seeing Ling Chen win and losing five hundred yuan.
She didn't expect Ling Chen to disparage Ye Qiu right in front of her.
Immediately, she was displeased!
"It's only because Ye Qiu is relatively mysterious and doesn't appear in public that you dare to talk like this. If one day Ye Qiu appeared in front of you and PKed with you, you might not even last 30 seconds!"
And in a place Chen Guo didn't notice, Ye Xiu, rarely, showed an embarrassed expression.
Although, part of the reason for losing this PK was an account issue, plus Ling Chen's trickery. Otherwise, the outcome would have been hard to say.
At least Ye Xiu was confident that with One Autumn Leaf's account, he wouldn't be worse than Ling Chen.
But all these conditions were based on Ling Chen's top-tier skill!
Ling Chen chuckled, "Actually, I really have fought Ye Qiu."
Chen Guo was startled and blurted out, "You really fought Ye Xiu?"
"I've fought him, and of course, I won. And I've even met him in person." Ling Chen replied.
"Really? Ye Qiu is a genuine number one player in the league, you can beat him?" Chen Guo was stunned: "Wait, you've even met him in person? Are you really not lying to me?"
She had always known that Ling Chen had many accounts, and they were all old accounts. Plus that mysterious Silver Weapon.
Perhaps he really had sparred with Ye Xiu and met him in the early days.
This immediately piqued Chen Guo's curiosity, but Ling Yun's usual habit of lying made her hesitate.
"I'm not lying to you, I've met Ye Qiu in person, he's quite tall." Ling Chen pretended not to see Ye Xiu's speechless expression beside him and continued speaking.
"Then do you have his autograph? Oh, right, do you know why he doesn't show his face?" Chon Guo asked curiously.
"I don't have an autograph yet, after all, my strength isn't worse than his, why would I need an autograph?" Long Chen replied, "As for why he doesn't show his face, I'll tell you secretly, it's mainly because he's too ugly to appear in public!"
Chon Guo was startled and continued to ask, "Is that true? Ye Xiu doesn't show his face because he's ugly? I heard from insiders online that Ye Qiu is tall and handsome."
"The online tipsters are all making things up. If he's truly handsome, why wouldn't he show his face? Could it be because he loves glory purely and dislikes marketing and commercial activities?" Ling Chen continued.
"That makes sense!" Chon Guo nodded, showing her agreement, "If I were handsome and skilled, I'd wish I could show off in front of the camera every day."
Seeing the two of them going back and forth, Yi Xiu was about to become a publicly undesirable image with corns, a bald spot, buck teeth, and bad breath.
Yi Xiu couldn't hold back anymore and interrupted their conversation.
"Cough cough..."
"Boss, I should be able to get hired now, right?"
"Hired? Of course you can get hired." Cen Guo immediately agreed, "Oh, right Yi Xiu, why do you think Yi Qiu doesn't show his face? Is it because he's ugly?"
Yi Xiu: "..."
