Wang Yi landed lightly on the street and, with a flash, returned to the storefront.

"Sister Yi, amazing," Yang Qingshuo praised.

"I hit Zhang Feng, he didn't die, but he should be seriously injured," Wang Yi said in the team voice chat.

...

After being hit by the arrow, Zhang Feng immediately dodged, hiding inside a building on the other side. He entered the building and looked down at his wound. The clothes and soft armor on his abdomen had long been torn apart, and the wound was large.

After cultivating the evolutionary method to this level, he could stop most of the bleeding through the peristalsis of his muscles. However, the wound was too large, so Zhang Feng tore off the clothes on his body and began to bandage the wound.

"I'm so fast, and I've been walking close to the walls," Zhang Feng said. "I even varied my speed occasionally, and I still got hit?"

"Everyone be careful, I was shot by Wang Yi and injured in the abdomen. I estimate I only have 50% of my strength left," Zhang Feng said in the team voice chat. "Her location is roughly in this area." Zhang Feng marked an area on the team map.

...

"He actually got hit?" In the Xia Country official live broadcast room, the host and guests were shocked, and countless viewers were in an uproar.

The host, Liu Xin, even pulled up the slow-motion replay from earlier.

The male guest, Jin Fan, watched and exclaimed, "Wang Yi is on the roof of the shop, with a view of all directions. Zhang Feng was exposed for a split second in her line of sight, at this intersection! About two hundred meters away."

"Wang Yi immediately locked onto the second intersection, and Zhang Feng was indeed exposed again, but only for a split second."

Jin Fan pointed to Wang Yi in the picture, "The moment Zhang Feng was exposed for the second time, Wang Yi jumped out, leaping off the roof, and leaping into this position in mid-air. She fired this arrow in mid-air!"

This arrow pierced through the air, traveled nearly two hundred meters, pierced through the glass, and Zhang Feng happened to appear in the arrow's trajectory at this time.

The female guest next to him watched the entire slow-motion process and exclaimed, "Zhang Feng has actually been varying his speed, slowing down every few seconds, and occasionally speeding up. But from the last time Zhang Feng was exposed to Wang Yi shooting him with an arrow, only 1.22 seconds passed! Half a second of which was the time spent by the arrow flying in the air. It's unbelievable."

"Zhou Yi's bow and arrow is like a heavy machine gun, blasting wildly from the front," the male guest Jin Fan praised. "Wang Yi is like a long-range heavy sniper rifle. As long as there's a sliver of a chance, she can seize it."

The audience was also very excited.

During the battle, Wang Yi's tips and gifts were also rising all the way!

As a top-three streamer on the viewing platform, Wang Yi's fighting style has always been very popular! Whether it's close-range rapid-fire or incredible long-range sniping, plus she's a great beauty... watching her live stream is very pleasing to the eye!

In this battle, Wang Yi's amount of tips and gifts far outstripped the other nine contestants.

******

Just as Zhang Feng was seriously injured, both teams became more vigilant.

"Hmm?" Heng Fang, who was moving forward cautiously, turned a corner and saw Zhao Fan, a young and tender youth who was also moving forward cautiously.

The two looked at each other, both somewhat astonished.

They were only ten meters apart.

Too close!

"Kill!"

Heng Fang was holding two short spears in each hand while traveling. Zhao Fan was wielding a yanyuedao (crescent blade). At the moment they saw each other, Heng Fang almost instinctively threw the two short spears in his hand.

Zhao Fan's eyes turned red, and he stepped forward, charging forward. One short spear passed by his side, and the other short spear was blocked by the yanyuedao in his hand.

Heng Fang retreated immediately after throwing the two short spears! While retreating, he took out the two sections of his snakewood spear from his back, connected and twisted them, and they clicked together.

"Clang."

Heng Fang's snakewood spear blocked the angry chop of the yanyuedao, but the force of the chop still made Heng Fang stagger backward involuntarily.

"Kill." Zhao Fan continued to pursue without hesitation.

One slash after another! Like a storm, like thunder and lightning, fierce and incomparable.

Heng Fang was suppressed and could only try his best to resist.

"How can his attack be so fierce, and his strength so great?" Heng Fang couldn't believe it. "Liu Chongyuan cultivates the Giant Bear evolutionary method, and his axe chops don't feel as powerful as Zhao Fan's saber techniques."

Zhao Fan's saber was fierce and boundless! Immensely powerful!

And like a wave, one slash after another, without stopping.

Sixteen consecutive slashes opened up Heng Fang's defenses! The seventeenth slash cut through Heng Fang's chest! Cutting through his armor, cutting through his torso.

Heng Fang stood there blankly, his body beginning to turn illusory.

"Did I lose?" Heng Fang couldn't believe it.

Zhao Fan watched Heng Fang disappear, a trace of regret on his tender face: "I felt like I was almost there, almost there I could have broken through! The power of that slash could have been much greater!"

In the Xia Country official live broadcast room, this fight was also being replayed in slow motion. Zhao Fan's fierce seventeen consecutive slashes, one slash after another, killed Heng Fang!

"Zhao Fan is only eighteen years old this year. He only started learning martial arts after the virtual world opened after the college entrance examination," the host Liu Xin exclaimed. "He's growing too fast. It feels like he gets stronger every few days! Seven or eight days ago, Wang Xianggu personally set the Xia Country's master ranking, placing Zhao Fan as the first person in the third tier. But I think in seven or eight days, Zhao Fan has improved too much. Now he can rank in the top of the second tier."

"Too strong."

"I also started learning after the virtual world opened, so how am I still a Silver Moon-level noob?"

"The gap between people is too big."

"He can be this strong after just over a month in the virtual world?"

"The 'Master Tracking' program interviewed Zhao Fan, as well as his relatives and friends, and his classmates. He really never practiced in the past!"

Countless comments rolled through the comment section, all marveling at this eighteen-year-old genius.

******

Inside the modern city map, both teams had completely gathered.

"Heng Fang met Zhao Fan and was killed in a one-on-one fight?" Xu Jingming, Wang Yi, Yang Qingshuo, and Liu Chongyuan were all surprised.

"Zhao Fan is indeed growing very fast," Wang Yi nodded. "Now it's four against five, which is okay... Although Zhang Feng didn't die, he doesn't have much strength left."

Liu Chongyuan nodded: "Next, we must be careful of that Zhao Fan."

"The one we need to be most careful of is Tie Lanyun," Yang Qing said. "Senior Brother Tie Lanyun is, after all, one of the Three Great Martial Arts Legends of Xia Country, once on par with Liu Hai and Lei Yunfang. His strength may be much more terrifying than Zhao Fan."

"I'll deal with Tie Lanyun, you guys try to deal with the others first," Xu Jingming said.

"With Sister Yi as a deterrent, we are still confident," Liu Chongyuan said.

A terrifying archer can make the opponent hold back some of their strength at all times to guard against the archer's sneak attacks.

"I also want to see how powerful this Zhao Fan is," Yang Qingshuo, who cultivates the Shadow Leopard evolutionary method, is known for his speed and agility. Even against opponents stronger than him, he is confident in delaying and entangling them.

"They're approaching this way," Wang Yi looked out the window and saw the five opponents advancing rapidly head-on.

Tie Lanyun, holding a shield and saber, and Zhang Cheng, holding two shields, rushed to the front of the team. After them were Zhao Fan and Zhang Feng, and finally Sun Li.

"Go."

Xu Jingming, Yang Qingshuo, and Liu Chongyuan quickly went downstairs and came to the street.

"Rushing into the shops, you'll only become targets on the street," Tie Lanyun said from afar, and he would not choose the battlefield set by Xu Jingming and the others. "Let's go find Wang Yi and eliminate Wang Yi first."

After Tie Lanyun gave the order, the team advanced rapidly, turning a corner and ignoring Xu Jingming and the others, and went into a shop.

"They're really cautious," Xu Jingming said, looking up. "Sister Yi, they've entered the shop."

Wang Yi, who appeared on the roof, quickly ran with her quiver on her back. She ran to the corner of the roof and quietly jumped down, quickly transferring to another building along the street.

"Captain, Wang Yi has left this shop," Sun Li, who was hiding at the back, vaguely saw and immediately reported, "She went to the gray residential building next door."

"The neighboring building doesn't have as good a view. Immediately attack Xu Jingming and the others." Tie Lanyun immediately gave the order. Wang Yi in this open-view shop was a great threat. Her threat was much lower in the neighboring building.

As long as the team dodged slightly, it would be difficult for Wang Yi to find a chance to attack.

Swish, swish, swish...

The five quickly darted out, heading straight for Xu Jingming and the others.

"Junior Brother!" Tie Lanyun took the lead, shield in one hand and saber in the other, charging valiantly.

"Senior Brother," Xu Jingming held a shield in each hand, looking forward to seeing Tie Lanyun. He had been practicing footwork these days, especially after the breakthrough in shield techniques, he had vaguely sensed the direction of footwork breakthrough.

His feet could exert force very quickly, reaching 50 meters per second in two steps! How to perfectly utilize it in footwork? That was the key.

"I hope you can give me some pressure," Xu Jingming took the initiative to meet him.

"Hua."

The saber light in Tie Lanyun's hand flashed, cutting through the air as if cutting through water. Xu Jingming vaguely heard the sound of the air being cut, and the saber light was already in front of him.

Xu Jingming blocked with the shield in his hand, gently unloading the force, while moving his footwork, avoiding Tie Lanyun's shield smash.

"You really did break through," Tie Lanyun's eyes were burning.

"Senior Brother's saber technique is also extraordinary," Xu Jingming was certain that Tie Lanyun's saber technique had broken through, but his shield technique and body did not have as strong a sense of threat.

Tie Lanyun was full of fighting spirit, displaying his shield-saber technique: "The country focuses on cultivating me, and the Five Elements Shield-Saber Art, deduced from my own shield-saber technique, is extremely exquisite. I have been practicing hard in the virtual world, practicing hard in reality... Now my saber technique has broken through, but my shield technique has not."

"Only the cooperation of shield and saber can achieve yin and yang harmony and true perfection," Tie Lanyun thought to himself. "Only then can I exert the power of the Five Elements Shield-Saber Art."

"This junior brother's shield technique is extraordinary, able to completely block my saber! He is a rare opponent." Tie Lanyun displayed the moves from his Five Elements Shield-Saber Art one by one, the moves were dazzling, one move after another, attacking relentlessly.

Xu Jingming held two shields, blocking and dodging: "It's rare to have an opponent, I hope Senior Brother can help me break through my footwork."

The opponents in the virtual world could have very high power, speed, and other aspects. However, they were much worse in terms of exquisite moves and combat intelligence. But real experts often come up with unexpected moves.

...

While Xu Jingming and Tie Lanyun were fighting, Yang Qingshuo and Liu Chongyuan were also fighting Zhao Fan, Zhang Cheng, and Zhang Feng, while Sun Li was ready to shoot arrows at any time from a distance.

"Swish." Wang Yi rushed out of the residential building and shot an arrow.

"Block."

Zhang Cheng, holding two large shields, was prepared and blocked the arrow.

"Swish, swish, swish." Sun Li shot three consecutive arrows at Yang Qingshuo, who was in a somewhat embarrassing situation. At this time, Zhao Fan chopped over with his saber.

Peng~~~

With one slash, Yang Qingshuo was sent flying backwards for several zhang. The bear Liu Chongyuan immediately blocked with his shields, and Zhao Fan and Zhang Feng immediately surrounded him. Although Zhang Feng was injured in the abdomen, he could still exert some of his strength and was still a threat.

"Sun Li is too familiar with our moves. It's too uncomfortable to fight with him watching," Yang Qingshuo said urgently in the team voice chat.

"Pfft."

Sun Li's armor-piercing arrow hit Liu Chongyuan's knee. Although he was protected by heavy armor, it still caused Liu Chongyuan's body to become unstable, and Zhao Fan took the opportunity to slash at Liu Chongyuan's leg, causing Liu Chongyuan to fall directly to the ground.

"Swish, swish, swish." Sun Li shot arrows at Yang Qingshuo one after another, who was in a miserable state.

Wang Yi also shot arrows, but Zhang Cheng held two large shields, fully protecting Zhao Fan and Zhang Feng.

"Captain, I can't hold on anymore." Liu Chongyuan fell to the ground, trying to protect his head with his shield against the incoming weapons, and said anxiously in the team voice chat.

"This Zhao Fan is too fierce," Yang Qingshuo tried his best to dodge, blocking the arrows.

Xu Jingming heard the team voice chat.

"Senior Brother is not giving enough pressure." Xu Jingming was very disappointed. Although his footwork burst was strong enough, it wasn't just about speed to be considered a third-order footwork.

"Forget it."

Xu Jingming suddenly erupted.

Boom! Boom!

Xu Jingming's feet exploded like thunder, his speed rapidly soaring, leaving Tie Lanyun, who was still attacking, dumbfounded. Xu Jingming's speed at this moment far surpassed him, he couldn't even catch up.

"Dodge!" Tie Lanyun shouted angrily.

Zhao Fan, Zhang Feng, Zhang Cheng, and Sun Li looked over at the same time and saw a dark red blurry figure rushing over. The impact of this speed was like a terrifying demon.

"Not good." Zhao Fan and Zhang Feng retreated immediately.

"Drink."

Zhang Cheng, who was wearing heavy armor and the slowest, immediately raised his two shields, stabilized his stance, and wanted to resist.

"Bang!!!"

Xu Jingming, wearing dark red armor, used a simple 'Baji Collapse' shield technique when he approached Zhang Cheng. His right-hand shield was fierce and unstoppable, carrying the high-speed impact force of his body and directly collapsing on Zhang Cheng's body, who was wearing heavy armor.

Wearing heavy armor could ignore many weapon attacks, but the most feared was heavy weapons.

The collapse of Xu Jingming's great shield, plus the explosive power of his high-level evolutionary method body, was simply unbelievable.

"Bang!!!" Zhang Cheng, holding two large shields, flew up directly, his whole body bursting into a cloud of blood mist, his internal organs had long been shattered, and the whole person directly turned into nothingness, only the two large shields rolled and flew very, very far.

Zhao Fan, Zhang Feng, and Sun Li, who were running away, were all terrified. Even Tie Lanyun, who wanted to chase after Xu Jingming, felt his legs go weak.

A master wearing heavy armor was smashed into nothingness?

"Wow—"

"What the hell is this?"

"Did I see it wrong?"

More than a billion viewers in the Xia Country official live broadcast room were in an uproar, and the sound of countless people exclaiming was like a raging wave sweeping through the entire live broadcast room.

However, in the battlefield map, the dark red demon-like figure was too fast, and with two more steps, he arrived in front of the injured Zhang Feng.

"Bang!" Zhang Feng flew directly backward, blood mist rising in the air, and his whole person turned into nothingness during the flight.

Countless viewers exclaimed once again.

"Another one is gone!"

"Crazy!"

Xu Jingming turned his gaze and stared at Zhao Fan.

Zhao Fan was like a rabbit stared at by a tiger. Clearly, he was very strong, but Xu Jingming's power was too terrifying. After Xu Jingming completely erupted, especially the power of 'Body Like Fire', it was even more terrifying than Liu Hai!

Boom, boom, boom.

Each step was like the eruption of thunder and fire, and in just three steps, he caught up with Zhao Fan. Zhao Fan gritted his teeth and stopped, wanting to turn his hand and resist with a saber.

"Bang!"

The demon-like figure rushed over and smashed down with a shield, as if the sky and the earth were collapsing. With a bang, Zhao Fan was like a cannonball, flying straight away, blood mist rising and turning into nothingness during the flight.

The archer Sun Li, who was originally the furthest away, was fast and had already escaped far away.

"Sun Li is left to you three," Xu Jingming stopped and looked at Tie Lanyun.

"Yes, Captain." Liu Chongyuan, who had stood up, and Yang Qingshuo and Wang Yi were also shocked and couldn't help but respond loudly, all chasing after Sun Li.

Tie Lanyun looked at Xu Jingming, his eyes somewhat tight.

At this moment, the entire Xia Country official live broadcast room had completely boiled over! Countless viewers had gone crazy.

"Is this Xu Jingming?"

"Stupid Wang Xianggu, Xu Jingming is in the third tier?"

"Oh my god, how can Xu Jingming be so strong?"

"How can his shield be so terrifying!!!"

Xu Jingming's tips and gifts were erupting like a volcano, rising rapidly.
