The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

Chapter 40 Tang Rou's Stubbornness, Rock, Paper, Scissors! Mo Qian: God-Level Substitute Player Online—

"Let's welcome audience member number C252 to the stage for the competition! Wait a minute, C252, that seat number looks familiar...it seems like it's..."

When Tang Rou came back on stage, the host finally realized why she looked so familiar—it was Tang Rou, the pretty young lady from before!

"Wow! Tang, your luck is just too good! You even got to play again!"

Chen Guo looked at Tang Rou with a hint of envy; this was luck that couldn't be envied.

When Tang Rou came on stage, the host asked her how long she had been with the Glory of Heroes.
"Excuse me, how long have you been playing Honor of Kings, miss?"

"Probably only a few months."

The host looked at Tang Rou with some shock. She had only played Glory for a few months and was now going up to compete against professional players. The host looked at Tang Rou with disbelief and a hint of pity in his eyes. It was not an easy thing to compete against professional players, and this was a novice. The commentator couldn't help but feel sorry for Tang Rou.

"Does Miss Tang Rou have a max-level account? What class would you like a max-level account for?"

"Battle Mage".

After all skill points are allocated, the match begins!
The map is randomized each time; this time, it's the standard arena map.

Tang Rou's opponent was Du Ming from the Samsara team. Initially, Du Ming also thought Tang Rou was just a novice, having only played Glory for a few months—how could she possibly be that skilled? But when the match started, Du Ming realized he was wrong, terribly wrong, extremely wrong.

Du Ming was surprised that Tang Rou dared to confront him directly. He thought this young lady was probably shy, so he was thinking of going easy on her.

Tang Rou used her spear to show Du Ming what a true powerhouse woman is. After reaching near-limit strength, Tang Rou unleashed a move called "Sky Strike, with everything at her fingertips."

This is a phrase that both Mo Qian and Ye Xiu like to say: "With Heavenly Strike as the starting move, you have everything you need. The faster you start with Heavenly Strike, the better the initiative you gain."
This statement also applies to Tang Rou now. After successfully initiating her attack on Du Ming's swordsman with Sky Strike, she instantly followed up with "Floating Four Consecutive Thrusts".
Ye Xiu only taught Tang Rou for a day, and she was already proficient in using the "Floating Four-Hit Combo." It has to be said, Tang Rou is an absolute genius. Ye Xiu's favorite kind of disciple is one like her. While no skill is learned overnight, Tang Rou's inherent stubbornness drives her to keep trying and learning.

Such a player is precisely the most suitable for esports competitions, and Tang Rou's future is absolutely limitless.

"What kind of hand speed is that?! Such a fast combo!"

Ye Xiu specifically created a combo for Tang Rou that was extremely suitable for her due to her hand speed. Tang Rou's hand speed was her advantage, and it was something that had to be taken advantage of.

Du Ming's initial underestimation of his opponent put him on the defensive from the start, allowing Tang Rou to seize the opportunity and relentlessly pursue him. However, Du Ming was puzzled as to why Tang Rou wasn't using any high-level skills.

"That's right—this girl has only been playing Glory for a few days, she probably hasn't even learned the later skills yet! No, we can't let this continue, we have to fight back! We absolutely have to fight back!"

Du Ming swung his sword, using the "Falling Phoenix Slash" to break free from Tang Rou's control. Then, seizing an opening, he launched Tang Rou into the air with an upward slash. It was Du Ming's turn now. Previously hesitant and timid, Du Ming, having learned of Tang Rou's weakness, chose to strike with full force! What Du Ming hadn't anticipated was that Tang Rou's reaction speed was also quick. After Du Ming hastily unleashed his ultimate move, "Phantom Invisible Sword," she capitalized on his momentary lapse in concentration and seized control of him once more!

"Wow, this girl's hand speed is amazing!"

"This hand speed is even faster than some professional players."

The professional players in the professional player section also saw Tang Rou's talent for hand speed. The more Wang Jiexi looked at Tang Rou, the more he felt that she was a promising talent. She was a rough gem. With more polishing, she would definitely become an extremely beautiful piece of jade!
"This person's hand speed is still increasing. No way, this hand speed can't be maintained for long, right?" Huang Shaotian said, looking at Tang Rou's hand speed.

"Maybe, Shaotian." Yu Wenzhou wouldn't make a judgment before the results were in.

Chen Guo was a little worried about Xiao Tang while watching the match. After all, Chen Guo was Mo Qian's junior apprentice, and Mo Qian would usually take time to teach her. As a result, Chen Guo's awareness had improved significantly. At least now, Chen Guo could tell who was in more danger in this match.
Ordinary players might only see that Tang Rou is frantically suppressing Du Ming, a professional player from the Samsara team, but in reality, Tang Rou is in greater danger. Maintaining a high hand speed for a long time will definitely cause damage to the player, and Tang Rou is just putting on a brave face right now.

"Little Master, do you think Xiao Tang can hold on until the end?"

Mo Qian smiled and said:

"Boss, don't you know Xiao Tang? You're well aware of her stubbornness."

Chen Guo thought about it and it seemed to be true. Once Tang Rou made up her mind about something, nothing could sway her. She was determined to see it through to the end. Tang Rou's ability to see things through was the biggest quality that attracted Chen Guo.

In the end, Tang Rou succeeded. Utilizing her superior hand speed, she maintained high speed until the very last moment, successfully defeating Du Ming. However, Du Ming was also enraged.
"One more game!"

Tang Rou naturally wouldn't refuse. Come on then, who's afraid of who!

……

"Old Ye? You go, I'll go?"

"rock-paper-scissors!"

Mo Qian's was a stone, Ye Xiu's was cloth. Mo Qian stood up and said to Chen Guo:
"I need to use the restroom."

Actually, the purpose was to get through Tang Rou and, incidentally, to give Du Ming, who was always arguing with a young girl, a good beating.
