The scene then shifts back to the Sichen Palace three hours earlier.

"Surrounding three sides and leaving one open... Is this the plan you mentioned, the one that ensures the martial arts ceremony will proceed as planned?"

In his recollection, Huaiyan was confirming with the person before him that it was Jingyuan himself who had proposed this plan.

[Indeed. With Hu Lei's escape, the martial arts ceremony should have been abruptly halted. No one can predict where this ferocious beast will attack; festivals like celebrations are more likely to become his targets.]

However, the martial arts ceremony had been in preparation for a long time and was inevitable, and announcing its cancellation pained me greatly. Then I thought, since it has to be held, let it go ahead. But why must today's event be a true martial arts ceremony?

Following Jingyuan's explanation, the audience suddenly understood.

"The value of the Shence General title is still rising!"

"Jing Yuan is still in C!"

"Now you understand the significance of the Hunting General's wisdom and destiny!"

"Truly, he skillfully employed a series of coordinated attacks, cleverly seized the flag by deceiving the heavens, and won a decisive victory from afar, leaving no room for error. Brilliant, brilliant indeed!"

The perspective then shifts to March 7th. Upon noticing the commotion on the ship, March 7th panicked, realizing that Hu Lei had indeed infiltrated the Jingfeng ship as planned.

Despite her fear, since none of the train crew were around, she still followed General Huaiyan's instructions to protect the safety of the fairy ship.

They then encountered the invading Bu Li people on the road, which made March 7th nervous.

[You...you can't be the Cloud Cavalry responsible for impersonating Bu Liren, can you?]

【You...are the real Bu Li people, aren't you?!】

The audience found it amusing to see March 7th standing in front of the two Bu Lirens, hands on hips, confirming the situation.

"You can tell March 7th is really nervous, so cute!"

"Junior sister...don't be so out of touch, haha."

"Everyone's gone their separate ways now, and Little March is probably a bit scared being alone."

"Indeed, March 7th was so scared that he clung to my arm and wouldn't let go."

"Hilarious, how come there are still people in Taiyi's Dream?"

"By the way, where did Danheng go? I'd completely forgotten about him."

"They accompanied Jingyuan back to his hometown to visit his elders (confirmed)."

"Ah, is this...right?"

Then on March 7th, he joined Yun Li and Yan Qing, and the three of them prepared to join the battle against Hu Lei.

The live broadcast of this martial arts ceremony went awry before the eyes of the Immortal Ship's inhabitants. It wasn't some light-hearted sword fight. This was a deadly battle devoid of honor, only fraught with danger. March, are you ready?

[Let's quote General Jingyuan again, sigh, we're already here.]

Yun Li's awareness was so convincing that one couldn't help but nod in approval. At the same time, this deadly battle, which was kept secret for the safety of the Immortal Ship, would also win its due honor and applause.

【Yun Li, Miss Sanyue, I wish you both the best of luck in reaching the arena and winning!】

So the three of them went up into the arena and joined the operation to annihilate Hu Lei.

The scene shifts, and Hu Lei is still standing on the arena in the storyline, surrounded by many fallen Cloud Cavalry soldiers. Clearly, numerical superiority does not bring any advantage in defeating this immortal monster.

[Extremely weak, truly extremely weak!]

The next moment, Yanqing landed with his sword, facing Hu Lei head-on.

Yun Li and San Yueqi followed closely behind, the three of them forming a pincer movement.

Seeing this, Hu Lei drew his giant blade and made a hand gesture, and the scene shattered.

The battle to defend the title has officially begun.

Chapter 450 Entering the game personally

[We've been waiting for you for a long time, hooray!]

After Hu Lei stepped onto the stage, Yan Qing, Yun Li, and San Yueqi became the main force to fight him.

This prompted Hu Lei to scoff.

Are there no other qualified warriors on the Luofu Immortal Ship?

During the confrontation between the two armies, Yanqing also revealed a rare glimpse of his hidden sharpness.

"Then you'd better watch out, the feeling of being defeated by a cub might not be something you, an old wolf, can easily handle!"

Hu Lei: [Fine, until Fei Xiao arrives, you can serve as entertainment for us!]

Then the BOSS [Bu Li Zhan Shou · Hu Lei] officially appeared before the audience.

The high speed allows Hu Lei to quickly return to the top of the action bar after each attack. The frequent attacks initially put a lot of pressure on the audience, and many people even crashed their planes.

After successfully reducing Hu Lei's health to 1% and locking it in place, he acknowledged the three people in front of him.

[Not bad! But it's far from enough!]

My body is indestructible; your swords are as weak as weeds!

The scene then transitions into a dramatic sequence, where Hu Lei sweeps Yun Li and San Yueqi aside with a single slash. The next moment, Yan Qing attacks from behind with his sword, but is also kicked away by Hu Lei.

Clearly, in terms of combat power, Hu Lei, who possesses an immortal body, is still somewhat difficult for Yan Qing and the others to deal with.

Hu Lei then stepped forward, reached out and grabbed Yan Qing from the ground, holding her in his hand like a miniature figurine, making the audience's hearts jump.

I'm tired of this... let's stop here!

Just as he was about to attack Yanqing, his vision blurred and he suddenly felt weak.

What happened?

The audience's eyes lit up at the sudden turn of events.

"Yay, is it a debuff?"

"Your excitement at finally getting your hands on a life-size Yan Qing figure made you faint.jpg"

"Master Jiao, it's you putting in the effort, isn't it!"

Is the Star Train about to head outwards? (Sad)

Scott's voice: Hmm~ I'm hallucinating~

"If I fail to make it off the arena during the martial arts ceremony, my career as the top fighter will be over, right?"

The screen then went black, and the scene shifted to shortly before Hu Lei boarded the Jingfeng ship.

When the screen lit up again, lying in the corner was Pepper Hill, which looked like a withered rag.

The hideous claw marks left by Hu Lei almost covered his entire chest, and it seemed that his internal organs could even be seen through the wounds.

At this moment, Jiaoqiu slumped to the ground, his eyes becoming unfocused and lifeless, already in a near-death state, barely breathing.

Upon witnessing this scene, the audience's pupils dilated in shock.

"!!! Master Jiao—"

"Jiaojiao! No!"

"The pepper shattered gently..."

"Really dead? Are there any characters who can die?"

"The strategist has fallen! (crying)"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"So that's why I didn't see Jiaoqiu on the Jingfeng ship... Is that it...?"

"Kids, don't be afraid! Pepper won the revival match during the preview!"

"But honestly, I really can't imagine how Peppercho can survive Hure's clutches."

"Where's Bakuzawa? Hurry and come save him!"

The audience was discussing it intensely, while on the Yaoqing Immortal Boat side, Feixiao and Moze's expressions also became solemn after witnessing this scene firsthand.

Jiaoqiu himself remained cheerful and chuckled as he gently fanned himself with his feather fan.

"Speaking of which, that feeling of suffocation and helplessness when you're on the verge of death reminds me of a fusion of dragon's breath chili and sucker octopus. If we could improve it, we might even be able to recreate the dish and make it irresistible."

Hearing Jiaoqiu's wildly imaginative remarks, Bakuze's lips twitched.

"...It's a good thing you chose to be a cook instead of a scientist, otherwise you would at least be a PhD."

Returning to the main storyline, Hure has already lost interest in the useless Pepper Hill.

For the hunt, secrecy is an indispensable weapon. Those without secrets are merely prey, torn apart and left to die a miserable death.

However, Hure said that Pepper Hill was also lucky.

After all, you don't have to live to witness the tragic future your general will face.

In Hu Lei's view, Fei Xiao, being a fox-human, would sooner or later be overwhelmed by Yue Kuang and torn apart in anger.

In the end, he was simply executed by the hunting party as a mad, vile creature.

Hu Lei: [The only cure lies in my hands.]

Jiaoqiu: [Who's the healer here, you or me? Are you really that confident in your judgment?]

Hu Lei neither confirmed nor denied this.

"I must go, fox-man. Before you leave, you know what I need to do, right?"

Drinking blood wine is a custom of the Buli people before going into battle. They would drain the blood of prisoners of war to incite their frenzy.

Upon seeing this, even March 7th on the train couldn't bear to watch. He let out an indescribable sound and immediately shrank into his blanket to cover his ears.

"Xing, the rest is up to you!"

"Uh... these 12+ games shouldn't be too scary, right..."

Although the subsequent scenes remained unchanged, Jiaoqiu's piercing wail still sent shivers down the spines of the audience.

"Huh, is this still a 12+ game? Where did I get this from?!"

"The visuals are rated 12+, but that doesn't say the plot is either."

"That scream was so agonizing..."

"Pepper—Hill—"

"Aaaaaah! I could chop you up, cut you in half, and mince you a thousand times, and it still wouldn't be enough!"

After Jiaoqiu let out an uncontrollable wail of pain, memories flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern.

If you are a healer, can you cure my lunar mania?

[What good will it do if you're cured? Will you just go back to the battlefield to die? Take my advice, child, your physical condition isn't suitable for going back to war.]

At this moment, Jiaoqiu began to doubt his own beliefs because the lives he had saved were now going to die again.

Since these people are all going to die on the battlefield, what's the point of saving them?

Just as Jiaoqiu emo was falling into nothingness, Feixiao asked a question.

So, can you cure war?

What did you say? I'm just a doctor! All I can do is—

Therefore, all you can do is heal us and let us heal the war.

Those who died in the war did not die in vain; their sacrifice was so that more people could return to their homeland.

The meaning of the dead will be given by the surviving living.

【Jiaoqiu, I command you! Heal me!】

The burning conviction from Feixiao eventually transformed into a beam of light that shone in front of Jiaoqiu, becoming the belief he now upholds.

How can I get a picky eater to eat green peppers?

How do you get a suspicious wolf to take poison?

I've already told you the answer.

Drink my blood to your heart's content... Hurrah. But alas, I am not without secrets. I still harbor a trivial secret...
