Chapter 137: Meeting the Enemy (Extra Update as 500 Subscribers Reached)

From a distance, it looked as though a massive crater created by a meteor strike.

There were quite a few Earth Dragons within the small basin, but after some wait, no other type of monster appeared.

A sudden realization hit Li Yao; this was indeed a small Trial Ground.

Being thrown into the jungle at the beginning was merely to weed out the dim-witted, or those who relied solely on luck to complete elite missions while lacking skills themselves.

He was convinced that there must be many more of these small, Trial Ground-like areas in this region.

Although he didn’t have it all figured out, he was heading in the right direction. The presence of the Trial Grounds was proof enough.

Li Yao initially planned to attack an Earth Dragon but suddenly thought otherwise.

There were 80,000 elite players, but there certainly wouldn’t be 80,000 of these Trial Grounds. This meant that some players would have to share Trial Grounds.

Although he found the Trial Grounds first and initiated the boss battle, any latecomers would be highly likely to attack him out of the unknown circumstances.

Li Yao’s steps abruptly came to a halt while he pondered. He found a large stone by the edge of the basin and sat down. He needed to display enough power before making a move; otherwise, even if he managed to kill the boss, others would stir up trouble.

The main screen displayed Li Yao sitting still, which puzzled the spectators.

Zhao Li asked in confusion, “The audience is wondering why he suddenly stopped after discovering the boss.”

KB was left speechless, thinking, “How would I know? Commenting on these matters is the hardest part. We don’t have much information.”

Oz coughed lightly and said, “He must have a purpose. Could it be that Prairie

Fire is afraid that if he attacks one boss, the others will attack in unison?”

“That’s a possibility,” KB echoed, “But my instinct tells me that’s not the reason. Prairie Fire hasn’t even attempted to attack after arriving here, indicating he might have other plans.”

In the game, as expected by Li Yao, players gradually started converging onto the basin from all directions.

Once a group of scattered players had gathered, a team of ten, led by Gu Cheng, arrived as well.

Moon Bright Star Rare caught sight of Li Yao sitting on the large rock and privately messaged Gu Cheng.

A sly smile crossed Gu Cheng’s face as he subtly nodded.

“This place is a decent spot. We’re claiming it. Solo players should back off.

This isn’t a forceful takeover either; once we’ve hunted down the boss, you’re free to use this place however you want.”

Moon Bright Star Rare scanned the area and voiced this out loud.

Anger flashed across the eyes of several solo players. There were so many bosses in the basin, and yet, they were monopolizing this place.

But of course, they understood that these fellows were afraid they would cause trouble. Sabotaging them at a crucial moment could easily lead to their efforts going to waste.

While the solo players were irate, they could do little about the situation. Both parties were elite players.

With one side outnumbered, and the other side having superior coordination, even if the solitaries joined forces they wouldn’t stand a chance of winning. So, despite their anger, they left the basin from a distance preparing to spectate from the edges.

The vast majority of those who made it here were the smart ones. They had discerned that there were no monsters other than the dragon boss coming through here.

They hadn’t even seen the red sleep birds that frequently appeared in the forest, just as Moon Bright Star Rare had mentioned. Once they’d completed their trials, they weren’t in a rush. The site wasn’t going anywhere.

The first round was about passing the trials, not about going to war with others.

Li Yao didn’t mind letting them test the boss’s skills. Though he remembered the skills, it had been so long ago that his memory was a bit hazy.

Without saying a word, he prepared to leave.

“Wait, who said you could leave?” Moon Bright Star Rare glanced at Li Yao, a teasing smile playing on his lips.

The other solo players pretended not to see and walked a bit further away, showing their attitude. They didn’t mind minding their own business, especially when they were competitors.

“Vengeance is sweet.”

“Exactly, since Prairie Fire has been too slippery from the start, anyone would absolutely take this chance to settle the score.”

“It’s true that there’s strength in numbers.” “Prairie Fire is in real trouble this time.”

“You can’t avoid such people in any online game.”

The audience went wild.

“Told you he was too reckless,” Li Yao’s father complained while worrying. After all, they were all elite players who got inside.

“What’s the use in blaming him now?” Li Yao’s mother replied grumpily.

Oz chuckled, “It seems Prairie Fire is likely going to need to use up one of his revives.”

“Too arrogant, with not a single teammate around. It’s normal. Being young and vigorous, a few setbacks will make him change,” KB sighed, “Being highly skilled won’t help him now.”

“That’s right, the other side has ten elite players.”

The host, along with the two commentators and all the onlooking audience, weren’t cheering for Li Yao. The vast difference was simply too obvious.

However, when they heard what Li Yao had to say, the stadium came close to exploding.

“So, looks like you guys weren’t satisfied with how you died previously? Just speak up if you want a different approach.”

“Holy crap, that’s definitely the same Li Yao!” Oz almost spit out the water he was drinking. Dude, can you not read the room? This isn’t the situation for you to act cocky.

KB was also speechless; he was finally experiencing what true arrogance was.

The stadium was inches away from exploding; some criticized Li Yao for his arrogance, but more were there to let out their pent-up frustrations.

In the game, Moon Bright Star Rare looked at Li Yao, a man who appeared to be an idiot, and said, “Mate, seems like you’re not wide awake yet, unaware of the current circumstance.”

“Who’s not wide awake will be clear in a moment.” Li Yao leisurely loaded ammunition into his crossbow, pistol, and cannons.

“What an idiot.” Moon Bright Star Rare arrogantly pointed towards the basin and said, “You’ve got good skills, I’ll give you that. Down here, test out the boss’s skills. If you can kill the boss, we won’t give you any trouble.”

“Great plan you got there.”

Knowing his identity and that he has soloed several bosses, they wanted him to test out the boss’s skills. After realizing these, they definitely wouldn’t let him kill the boss peacefully and would gang up on him instead.

“Hurry up, stop talking. Or else you’ll face the consequences.” Moon Bright Star Rare commanded Li Yao with a condescending look, treating Li Yao like a lamb about to be slaughtered.

“I hate it most when people talk down to me.” Li Yao held on tightly to his Long Bow.

“So what?” Moon Bright Star Rare sneered.

“Nothing much. Just killing you.” A glint flashed across Li Yao’s eyes.

Death Black Arrow!

Booom!

Moon Bright Star Rare’s body inflated hugely as if he had suddenly grown taller, and blocked Li Yao’s arrow with the large shield in his hand.

“Is that all you’ve got? The famous expert can’t even break my defense.”

“Really?” Li Yao fired the second arrow. The first one was just to place the Mark of Death on him. Now the Mark of Death and Death Black Arrow hung over his head, unknown to him.

The audience was stupefied. No one could’ve thought that Li Yao would take the initiative, considering that he was up against ten elite players….
