Chapter 162 Admitting Defeat! A New Member of the Hunter God Squad!

"Tyrant form?"

Qingyu was slightly taken aback, and suddenly felt a terrifying chill rush from his tailbone straight to the top of his head. The premonition of disaster made him break out in a cold sweat.

In the center of the arena, the figure of the Divine Lord began to change under the gaze of countless psionicists. His body expanded wildly, growing into a five-meter-tall war tyrant in a very short time, standing majestically on the battlefield like a demon god of the abyss.

He gently raised the blood spear, and a surge of bloodthirsty energy instantly erupted, crashing towards the enemy before him like a massive, tangible wave.

"What on earth is this thing?!"

Qingyu's expression was completely distorted, as if she had put on a mask of pain.

The God Lord in his normal state is already difficult enough to deal with. His life recovery speed is too fast, making it difficult for his attacks to cause substantial damage. He is already difficult to fight, but now he has also used a transformation skill, which has caused a qualitative change in his strength.

The enormous size difference brought an extremely terrifying sense of oppression, which, combined with Ye Mingqiu's own blood energy, formed the aura unique to a war tyrant, a powerful and ruthless force.

Let's test his specific attribute changes first!
Qingyu took a deep breath. As a top genius from a powerful family, he had a high level of combat skills. Even under these circumstances, he was still able to think rationally and try to find an opportunity for victory in a desperate situation.

"war!"

The War Tyrant took a step forward, its terrifying roar tearing through the air. The mental impact of [War Roar] erupted along the sound waves, the sonic wave slamming into Qingyu like a giant hammer.

"Um"

Qingyu gritted his teeth and groaned. His willpower, honed since childhood, and the basic skills of a legendary professional allowed him to react instinctively in advance.

He instinctively distanced himself from the War Tyrant to avoid any accidents, but even so, he was still forcibly controlled by the War Roar, which had a range of up to 350 meters. The terrifying roar pierced his mind like steel needles, plunging him into a brief period of chaos and excruciating pain.

'Oh no!'
Qingyu thought to himself.

He was momentarily distracted when facing the war tyrant, which was fatal!
It's important to know that although Ye Mingqiu's agility attribute is not as high as that of the specialized Qingyu, it is still quite fast. With an agility attribute of 145 points, combined with various bonuses, he can unleash extremely fast speed.

When Qingyu came to his senses, a terrifying shadow had already enveloped him, and the smell of death was incredibly strong.

Vision gradually returned.

The blurry yet terrifying tyrant now wielded his ferocious blood spear, which remained incredibly blurry even as vision gradually cleared. This blurriness wasn't due to the shock and shock, but rather the sheer speed at which he swung the spear.

I'll die if I get hit!

Qingyu was absolutely certain that at this critical moment, he immediately activated the ring's life-saving skill without the slightest hesitation.

【Virtualization】

In an instant, his body suddenly became blurry. This was the effect of etherealization, which caused him to lose his physical form within one second, making him unharmed by any attack.

Meanwhile, after releasing its first control skill, the War Tyrant seamlessly follows up with its second skill, [Killing Intent Wave], which combines damage and control effects.

A crimson, blood-red ring of energy erupted from the War Tyrant, instantly engulfing the battlefield. At the same time, the blood spear pierced through Qingyu's almost completely transparent figure, landing on the ground with a cracking sound.

"."

Ye Mingqiu looked at Qingyu, who had turned into a phantom, and secretly praised his opponent for his quick reaction.

His fighting style was fine; the Killing Intent Wave and War Roar were perfectly linked. However, Qingyu seized the moment when the Killing Intent Wave burst out during the connection between the two skills, but it didn't actually reach him. In that moment of clarity, he instinctively activated the Illusion to avoid the damage.

In terms of skill and combat awareness, Qingyu is at the top of the class. His willpower is also extremely strong, and the control time is relatively short. Otherwise, Ye Mingqiu could have smashed him to pieces with a single spear, leaving him no chance to use his ethereal form to evade the attack.

opportunity!

Qingyu's eyes flickered.

Without hesitation, he advanced in a semi-ethereal state, transforming into a bolt of blue lightning. Taking advantage of the tiny opening created by Ye Mingqiu's spear strike, he instantly closed in. The dagger flashed and flowed like a fleeting streak of light, slashing with unparalleled precision towards the War Tyrant's relatively weak wrist joint.

"Bah!"

The dagger sliced ​​through the skin, leaving a cut, but the sensation only intensified Qingyu's despair.

As a top-tier assassin, he can roughly judge an opponent's defensive capabilities simply by the feel of their strikes.

The God-King, now in Tyrant form, has a defense that is about 1.5 times stronger than before. He was already ridiculously tanky, but now his defense is even more incredible. His attacks can hardly cause any fatal damage anymore.

Is there a chance of success with repeated attacks on vital points?
Qingyu was still struggling internally; as a top prodigy, he was unwilling to give up easily.

His countless successes along the way are the source of his confidence, but also the cost of his pride. Even when faced with such a formidable enemy, and even knowing that he is unlikely to win, he still refuses to give up easily.

'Damn it! If I'd known it would turn out like this, I should have used my ultimate skill at the start and finished them off immediately!'
Qingyu thought angrily.

In fact, his dagger was poisoned, and it was highly poisonous. A small amount of it could kill a hero-level or king-level expert of the same level, and even a hegemon-level expert would be affected by the poison.

If an assassin doesn't use poisoned weapons, can they still be called an assassin? Are they even qualified?

However, the current situation is that after Ye Mingqiu activated his Tyrant form, he seems to have extremely high resistance to abnormal statuses, making him immune to the poison.

send!
Let's wait and see if we can wear him down until his form ends. If he's weakened after his form ends, I'll have a pretty good chance of winning.

"Ah!!"

The war tyrant let out a deep, thunderous roar as the blood spear danced in his hand, its afterimages transforming into a raging crimson storm. Each sweep and thrust carried a terrifying power that seemed capable of tearing through space, accompanied by a thunderous sound of air being pierced.

With her skillful movements and superb agility, Qingyu maneuvered through the gaps in the destruction, dodging each attack and seizing every opening to launch a surprise attack on vital points.

But the effect was not good. The War Tyrant's vitality was too strong, and he could hardly cause any real damage. It was just like scraping.

Should we use that move?
After dodging once more, Qingyu felt the aura of death brushing past his cheek, looked up at the sky above the arena, and couldn't help but ask himself a question.

Besides time acceleration, he actually has other trump cards, but the question is, can he successfully kill the Tyrant using a dark gold-grade dagger? If he fails to kill the Tyrant and exposes his trump cards, it would be too much of a loss for him.

Sigh! If he could, he wouldn't want to unleash his ultimate attack after the opponent activated Tyrant form.

The problem is that the God Lord has been watching the Tyrant form fight for more than ten minutes, and there is no sign of him quitting or weakening. In fact, the precision and accuracy of his fighting have even improved!

He even got stronger as the game went on!
Who the hell can handle this?!

More importantly, this kind of high-intensity, high-precision combat is also extremely taxing on his energy. He can still hold on for a while now, but after a while he probably won't be able to react anymore and will die sooner or later.

Ugh!
Since he's already paid up, it won't make me look bad if I back down, after all, this is just a placement match, not the final ranked ladder match.

No need, no need.

Rather than stubbornly continuing to fight, only to be instantly killed by this monster due to a mistake, it's better to gracefully admit defeat and leave the stage with a relatively dignified air.

Thinking of this, Qingyu quickly distanced himself from the War Tyrant and said, "I surrender."

The war tyrant hesitated, not immediately believing the other party, but waiting for a response from the spirit world. He would not believe the other party's surrender until he received a clear answer from the spirit world, which was a quality that a psychic should have.

[Hint: Qingyu has conceded defeat]

【Battle Victory】

Your ranking has improved to 18th on the ladder.

"."

After the battle ended, the War Tyrant reverted to its original human form. Ye Mingqiu silently looked at Qingyu, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Although Qingyu has conceded defeat, he does not believe that he has won completely. Qingyu's eyes have made it clear that he still has more trump cards, but he has not used them in the battle. The placement match is not worth using more trump cards, so he chose to concede defeat.

'I didn't hit him once.'
Ye Mingqiu thought to himself.

Suddenly, a negative emotion began to spread in his heart. Facing a level 9 legendary psionicist, he was being toyed with like a wild beast, unable to deal any effective damage. Instead, he was slashed countless times and was even close to death at the start of the battle.

I'm still too weak. My agility stat is too low. If my agility stat were higher, would the outcome be slightly different?
Ugh!
[Hint: Your long weapon proficiency level has been increased to level 6]

[Hint: You have mastered the short-range weapon specialty]

After the battle, Ye Mingqiu briefly reviewed the situation in his mind, and the notification sound of the Spirit Realm upgrade rang out. The battle had further improved his understanding of using the spear, and he also gained a general understanding of the attack patterns of the dagger, mastering a new special skill.

He returned to the arena's stands, crossed his arms in front of him, and continued to review his performance, summarizing the various experiences he had gained in the battle, trying to deduce more combat techniques, and areas for improvement.

Only by frequently reflecting on and reviewing lessons can one's combat skill level increase faster.

the other side

Ge Wu took the initiative to find Qing Yu and then said, "Qing Yu, you didn't lose unjustly."

"Oh? You know the inside story."

Qingyu raised an eyebrow slightly.

Ye Mingqiu possesses such overpowered combat strength at level 4, with that level of life and defense, and his combat instincts are ridiculously strong. He can even get stronger the more he fights, and his Tyrant form is even more overpowered. This is simply not like a normal psionicist.

Therefore, he personally believes that there must be some hidden story behind the God-King that he is unaware of.

"10 psionic points."

"can."

"Transfer immediately."

"it is good."

Qingyu agreed quite readily, reflecting both his ample financial resources and his confidence in his own strength and influence. He personally believed that anyone willing to offend his own idiot for a mere 10 spirit points was unlikely to reach the top stage like the Heavenly Ladder Arena.

[Notification: Received 10 Psionic Points transfer]

As the spiritual energy points arrived, a smile slowly appeared on Ge Wu's face. He said, "Actually, the God-King's original true level was not level 4."

"Oh? I knew it."

“He was entangled by cursed equipment and paid a huge price to achieve the symbiotic conditions, and level should be one of those conditions. So, although he appears to be level 4, he can’t actually be considered a normal psychic at all,” Ge Wu said.

"Cursed equipment? What type?"

Qingyu instantly became alert, feeling a cold sweat break out on his back. He began to feel a little scared. As a psionicist trained by a powerful organization, he had a general understanding of this kind of thing.

"A growth-type overlord-level being, extremely dangerous. That thing is currently unharmed on him, but if something happens to him, the consequences could be dire."

Ge Wu's voice gradually faded, and his expression changed accordingly, eventually revealing a knowing look in his eyes.

"Grass!"

Qingyu's expression changed drastically.

What's the difference between this and strapping a nuclear warhead to your body? It's a death-triggered nuclear warhead, no less!
Even in the safe zone, if Qingyu encountered a deity in the wild, she would avoid them completely, not daring to even glance at them, for fear of getting tainted by karma. If she were targeted by that cursed equipment, she would explode if she looked at it again! And melt if she got any closer!
No way! There's this person in Tier 1, and the possibility of being matched with him is far too dangerous!

I need to add a friend!
On the other side, in the audience stands, Ye Mingqiu sat in his seat reviewing the battle, organizing his combat experience, and refining his techniques. Tang Ruobing sat beside him, observing the other people's battles, taking notes as she watched, and summarizing countermeasures.

However, she really didn't have a way to deal with legendary assassins like Qingyu, who could accelerate time at the start of the game, then get close and slash dozens of times at vital points.

There's no way around it, this is pure restraint.

Assassins who master [time acceleration] are already bug-level beings. Only such bug-level beings can possess a legendary class at the first tier. The potential and strength that such top geniuses can display after receiving sufficient training are quite terrifying.

The ability to accelerate time at any time is quite terrifying. Even if Tang Ruobing has life-saving equipment skills that grant short-term invincibility, she cannot perfectly counter it.

First, Qingyu won't necessarily activate [Time Acceleration] at the start of the game. He can use feints to bait out the enemy's survival skills and then accelerate to finish them off.

Secondly, Qingyu is strong in himself. Even without using the time acceleration talent, he is still a top-tier assassin with extremely strong abilities. Even Ye Mingqiu in his Tyrant form couldn't catch him. He is still extremely difficult to deal with even without using time acceleration.

He possesses exceptional talent, but he is not incapable of fighting without it. Even without using his talent, he remains a top-tier psionicist.

"Ugh!"

Tang Ruobing sighed and muttered to herself, "It seems that I still have a long way to go."

"Yes."

Ye Mingqiu also sighed. When he thought about the scene of fighting Qingyu today, he felt that his strength was still too weak.

"By the way, how much strength do you have now? I feel your attack power is a bit frightening, but I can't get a precise figure. Can you give me a rough estimate?" Tang Ruobing said.

"Strength attribute 170, basic passive can increase burst power by 30%, has an additional 85% strength judgment, Tyrant form strength is 1.5 times, and Fury Pursuit can add an additional 0.45 times strength."

After summarizing, Ye Mingqiu replied seriously, "In other words, in Tyrant form, each of my basic attacks is equivalent to an attack with 613 points of strength, and using Fury Pursuit is equivalent to 889 points of strength."

"."

Tang Ruobing remained silent for a moment.

No wonder Qingyu didn't dare to take a single hit. If he were to be hit, even a level 10 tank hero would be smashed into mincemeat. As an assassin, he could be killed instantly if he were even slightly touched by the aftershocks of the attack.

Qingyu's fighting style appeared elegant on the surface, but only he, during the battle, knew how much cold sweat he shed and how much pressure he felt.

Just as the two were chatting, a familiar figure slowly walked over.

"My Lord, let's be friends."

Qingyu walked over with a generous smile, sent a friend request, and tossed the jet-black prop in her hand to Ye Mingqiu, saying, "A little gift, nothing special."

Black Jade Cream

Description: Place this item in water, boil it, and bathe in the water to absorb its nutrients. This can slightly enhance the body's defense and elemental resistance.

"Thanks."

Ye Mingqiu put the items into his storage space, accepted Qingyu's friend request, and then continued, "Have you joined a guild yet? My guild has basic passive abilities that can improve physical potential and resistance. You can join if you're interested."

"true and false?"

Qingyu's eyes lit up instantly. Compared to the other fancy attributes, he was most interested in the body's basic potential and resistance. These two attributes were the most effective and would bring more benefits when advancing.

He has now reached level 9 and is not far from advancing to the second tier. Right now, he desperately needs his basic physical potential attributes, and no amount of them is ever enough. The more of these attributes, the better.

"look."

Ye Mingqiu displayed the following information.

"I didn't join the group, but I'll join it now."

Qingyu smiled and clicked to leave the current team, then clicked to confirm repeatedly before joining the Hunter God Team without the slightest hesitation.

Once he joins the team, the team's physical base potential and dual resistances become apparent.

As the familiar feeling gradually became clearer, Qingyu's smile grew even wider. He put one hand on Ye Mingqiu's shoulder and said, "Brother, wait for me. I'll try to get a basic passive skill upgrade card for our team. Sigh, although these things are quite expensive, as a member of the Hunter God, I feel obligated to contribute to the team."

"Welcome to the God of Hunts."

Ye Mingqiu said with a smile.

The team's basic passive advancement card is something that is priceless and unavailable. It's not a question of whether it's expensive or not; it's a good thing that even a normal person with money can't buy.

Of course, the basic passive skills generated by ordinary psionicists are not as strong as Ye Mingqiu's, so the team benefits of skill advancement are not significant. However, the fact that the effect is permanent and applies to everyone can attract many psionicists to buy it, so the final price is not that outrageous.

The main problem is a shortage of stock! A lack of distribution channels!

Bobtail cat: Aaaaaah!
Bobtail cat: Which one did this?!
Bobtail cat: Are you going to kill me?
Rule: [Sweating.JPG]

Ye Mingqiu closed the channel and stopped looking at it. This had nothing to do with grabbing red envelopes. After all, he wasn't short of a few thousand spirit points, and he wouldn't be upset over such a trivial matter.

[Ding! Red envelope notification!]

He opened the channel again to grab red envelopes.

The Other Shore: [Eat Lemon.JPG]

Qingyu closed the channel, then smiled and waved, saying, "You guys have a good atmosphere, so I won't disturb you any longer. See you next time."

"Goodbye."

Ye Mingqiu said.

Qingyu put one hand in his pocket and strode away.

His primary goal upon arriving was to add Ye Mingqiu as a friend, find out when he entered the spirit world, and thus avoid any potential clashes or danger.

However, after seeing the Hunter God Squad's passive ability, Qingyu realized the problem: only when a psionicist's abnormal status resistance, physical base potential, and control effect resistance values ​​exceed the other four attributes will this situation of basic passive ability plus physical base potential and resistance occur.

Therefore, the God-King's resistance is likely to be so high that it is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. Only in this way can he withstand the growth-curse overlord-level equipment.

"What a ruthless person."

After Qingyu walked away, she turned her head and glanced at Ye Mingqiu, who was still deep in thought and reviewing the situation. A deep sense of apprehension arose in her heart.

Fortunately, I didn't offend anyone. Hopefully, I can get some benefits from the Hunter God Group in the future.

after all
These people in the group now all seem to be quite extraordinary, except for that guy named Lü.

[Notification: You have received a transfer]

Gewu: Father, I introduced this person. This is 7% of the fee I swindled from him, which I'm using to show my respect to you.

You have gained 7 psionic points.

Ye Mingqiu accepted the transfer, and the murderous intent that had been quietly flowing in his eyes slowly dissipated. His perception was very strong, so he could naturally sense the meeting between Qingyu and Gewu not far away.

Although he didn't say it, he knew in his heart that Qingyu was someone introduced by Ge Wu.

Ye Mingqiu disliked people who sold him information behind his back, but this was a safe zone where killing was forbidden, so he didn't say anything.

He's not one to make a fuss. If he needs to kill a target, he'll just kill them at the right time. There's no need to bluff; doing so might actually make it harder to achieve his goal.

Now that Ge has confessed and handed over some of his psionic points, he can be forgiven for the time being.
