The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

Chapter 36: The changing of the guard between veteran and new players; the Rookie Challenge ends!
The outcome of the match was already decided at the beginning.
"The match is over! Gao... Gao Yingjie has won!"

Wang Jiexi still lost. No matter how well he tried to throw the game, he was still discovered. But Wang Jiexi still raised Gao Yingjie's hand and said:
"Gao Yingjie is an extremely outstanding player for Team Tiny Herb, and I believe he will perform even better in future matches."

"Hey—Wang Daye is still responsible."

Ye Xiu looked at Mo Qian speechlessly; the kid had almost fallen asleep again just now.

"You're really getting old; you can't even handle this much now."

Mo Qian looked at Ye Xiu with a pained expression and said:

"Old Ye, do you dare look me in the eye and say it again? You couldn't stay up the day before yesterday and went to sleep first. I helped you download the rest of the scripts."

Ye Xiu turned his head away somewhat guiltily, as if there really was such a thing.

"Watch the game! Hey? Look, Yifan's on the field!"

How could Mo Qian not know Qiao Yifan? He was an assassin player from the Tiny Herb team's youth training camp whom Ye Xiu encountered recently when he was besieged by Wang Jiexi. At that time, Ye Xiu even recommended that this young man play the Ghostblade class.

"Old Ye, when do you think Wang Daye will stop? We've been surrounded for days, three days already, and it's still not over. This kid really treats us like part of his youth training camp!"

Actually, it's not entirely Mo Qian's fault for complaining; it's just that Wang Jiexi was utterly ruthless, directly sending his entire team to attack him and Ye Xiu, while spouting nice things like:
"These are the two strongest bosses in the Glory circle. Just take them down."

Ye Xiu and Mo Qian: Listen to me, thank you. Because of you, the four seasons are warm.

As a result of Wang Jiexi's words, the Tiny Herb boss-hunting team was officially formed. Every time Mo Qian and Ye Xiu logged on, the entire Tiny Herb team members would rush in and beat them up like cats seeing catnip, without any regard for reason. Only fists mattered, even though Ye Xiu and Mo Qian's fists were bigger.

Wang Jiexi told these kids, "A group fight is fine too, as long as you can kill someone once, you'll get a reward."

However, at least so far, no one from Team Tiny Herb has managed to kill Mo Qian or Ye Xiu. What do you think the combination of Mo Qian and Ye Xiu is? It's the strongest combination in the league, the two strongest bosses together. Let alone Tiny Herb's youth training team, even a full professional team might not be able to defeat these two old monsters.

There was another reason why Ye Xiu and Mo Qian couldn't escape death: Ye Xiu's Thousand Manifestations Umbrella and Mo Qian's One Thought God and Demon. These were both top-tier equipment that couldn't be obtained through loot drops.
The two exchanged a glance, both understanding each other's thoughts. Ye Xiu and Mo Qian spoke simultaneously:
"We must stop Wang Daye's boss-farming behavior!"

As for the match between Yifan and Li Xuan, there's really no suspense. Yifan has no chance of winning. Who is his opponent?

That's Li Xuan, one of the Void Twin Ghosts, the number one formation ghost in Glory. Trying to play formation ghost in front of Li Xuan is no different from "showing off one's skills before an expert".

"The match is over, Li Xuan wins!" "Zhen Gui still needs more practice." This was Li Xuan's evaluation of Yi Fan.

Seeing Qiao Yifan walk off the stage with a dejected look on his face, Mo Qian nudged Ye Xiu on the shoulder and said:

"Go on, coax him! This is a promising talent for the Array Ghost class. Who would have thought that this kid has only been playing with Array Ghost for a few days and he can beat Li Xuan like this? Li Xuan probably still thinks Yifan is a Array Ghost main."

"Yeah, I'm just a little too eager to prove myself. I'll go backstage and take a look."

Ye Xiu agreed with Mo Qian's words. Yi Fan was being too hasty, which would only backfire. He guessed that Yi Fan was probably about to cry backstage right now.

"You're being a little too hasty, Yifan."

Ye Xiu heard Qiao Yifan crying in the darkness and couldn't help but remind him that Yifan was already very good, but he just chose the wrong opponent.

"Great... Great God?"

Ye Xiu then used his persuasive skills to finally restore Qiao Yifan's confidence. He believed that Yifan would one day become an excellent Ghost Array Master like Li Xuan.

"Why does this year's Rising Stars Challenge look so strange?"

Chen Guo also had some doubts. She felt that this year's All-Star Weekend was a watershed moment. In the fourth game, Tang Hao successfully defeated Lin Jingyan, the number one rogue in Glory. Magician Wang Jiexi also fell in the second game. There was the rise of newcomers, but the veterans' sharpness was also evident!
The next rookie is Sun Xiang, who has only been training for two and a half years. It's a bit naive of him to want to challenge Han Wenqing, who has been training for a full ten years.
Sun Xiang's arrogant attitude shows that he's still too young and lacks humility. He thinks that having the god-level account "One Autumn Leaf" makes him invincible.
…………

"Match over! Han Wenqing wins!"

"If it were Ye Qiu, at least the final 'Soaring Dragon' attack wouldn't have missed."

Han Wenqing was truly heartless. He used only a simple Eagle Step to successfully dodge Sun Xiang's Crouching Dragon Soaring to the Sky, then circled behind Sun Xiang and defeated him with a few punches. Sun Xiang never expected that Eagle Step could be used in such a way.
"Han Wenqing has successfully upheld the dignity of a veteran! Please welcome the next player!"

…………

The next two Rookie Challenge matches ended uneventfully, lacking the excitement of the previous ones. However, the audience was kind enough that no one demanded refunds.
