"They were drawn to the live broadcast."
The next morning, Qin Sheng got up early, ate breakfast, and happily turned on Yu Rui's live broadcast.
"Wow, we were surrounded right from the start."
...
Inside the dilapidated building, Ye Bufan leaned against a wall, trying to slow his breathing.
"Ye Bufan, we're all classmates, let's come out and chat."
The five people outside shouted as they cautiously explored the interior of the building.
Meanwhile, in the building opposite, Yu Rui calmly looked at the six people who appeared in front of and behind her.
"Including Shangwu and Qijie, you have more than thirty people in total, right?" Yu Rui asked in confusion, "Do you all know each other?"
"I don't know him."
"Everyone is just tacitly paying attention to your movements."
"Since we've met up nearby, I'll deal with you first!"
One sentence after another, and as the last sound faded, a small knife suddenly flew out from the shadows.
bite!
Yu Rui turned slightly to the side, her arm jerked, and the sickle unfolded in her hand.
"Then you've chosen the wrong opponent."
Her figure flickered and vanished from the spot, causing the group to frantically search for her.
Where are they?
"How can she be so fast?"
Bang!
Yu Rui's sickle got stuck on a shield, eliminating one person first.
At the same time, a number appeared on the bracelet.
1
when!
"Tch, this is so boring." Qi Jie poked the shield in front of him and said irritably, "You're eliminated."
Four or five figures had already fallen beside him.
"Brother Jie? Is it resolved?"
"Here you go, Fatty, I'll give you two, quick and easy."
Shangwu thrust his sword out from a tricky angle, and the last person's barrier suddenly opened.
"I wonder if anyone else has solved it yet."
With a bang, a punch smashed through the barrier, leaving Ye Bufan scratching his head in confusion: "So easy?"
When he went outside, he discovered that he was the last one to come out.
"The signal has only been out for less than half an hour, how come they've already contacted us?" Qi Jie asked, puzzled.
“They’ve been following us from the very beginning,” Yu Rui explained casually. “And it seems like quite a few teams are watching us; they just happened to run into each other and came together.”
Shang Wu squinted: "So, we're being watched?"
Ye Bufan frowned slightly and slowly looked at both sides of the road, noticing many eyes in the shadows.
"Meat tank, it's your turn to step up," Ye Bufan joked.
Wang Xiaopang gave a bitter smile: "Old Fan, why do I feel like I should walk alone?"
Shangwu suggested, "It's not too late now."
"Never mind." Wang Xiaopang took a deep breath and took out the shield from his back.
"Giving up halfway is not an option."
"Then be prepared."
Ye Bufan put on the gauntlet, while Shang Wu wiped his longsword with a torn corner of his clothes.
"This is much more interesting." Qi Jie threw the baseball bat on the ground, and it bounced back into his hand.
Yu Rui remained silent, only gripping the sickle in her hand.
The figures around seemed to have reached some kind of agreement, and slowly walked out, blocking both sides of the road completely.
"We need to break through first; we can't hold out for long if we're blocked."
As soon as Ye Bufan finished speaking, Qi Jie grabbed Wang Xiaopang's shoulders and flipped him over: "I'll clear the way!"
"Huh? Shouldn't I be at the front?" Wang Xiaopang was dumbfounded.
"Keep up," Ye Bufan said helplessly.
Shangwu's gaze sharpened, and he slashed his longsword at the decaying billboard in the distance.
Two flashes of cold light, and the already aged billboard could no longer withstand the force, crashing directly into the crowd below.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the billboard was blasted away.
"Trying to eliminate us with billboards? You're underestimating us!"
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you looking at?"
Qi Jie darted forward, his baseball bat seemingly leaving afterimages as he swept it directly towards the crowd.
Bang bang bang!
Several barriers opened instantly, but at the same time, he was met with the falling of seven or eight weapons.
Ta-da!
A figure was thrust in front of Qi Jie, and Ye Bufan reminded him, "Two fists can't fight four hands, so be careful of your surroundings."
"Hey Lao Fan, if you don't give me some time to prepare, my hand will be in trouble!"
Wang Xiaopang wailed as seven or eight people attacked him simultaneously. His shield could withstand the attack, but he couldn't!
But before he could finish speaking, Yu Rui stepped on his shoulder and made a sound.
"My weapon range is too large, I'll go inside and clear a path."
As soon as she finished speaking, she landed above the crowd. Her scythe seemed to have truly transformed into the Grim Reaper, forcing large areas of shields to activate with each strike.
"Now's the time! Charge out!"
The people blocking their way behind are almost here. If they don't get out soon, they'll be surrounded from both sides. Even if they manage to break through, they'll lose one or two men.
Bang bang bang... boom boom boom...
The clash of martial artists brought a long-lost liveliness to this decaying city, with the booming sounds like firecrackers during the Lunar New Year, lasting for more than half an hour.
"Damn! Little Fatty, how come you're so heavy!" Qi Jie complained, carrying Wang Xiaopang on his back and running as fast as he could.
"Hey Jay, hurry up! We're catching up!"
bite!
A figure caught up with them, and Shangwu frowned: "No, there are too many of them, we have to shake them off."
"Turn right."
Yu Rui came out from the left, where there were still many people looking for their target. They would definitely be watched if they showed up.
Ye Bufan rejoined the team, panting heavily; this couldn't go on.
His gaze swept around, and Ye Bufan steadied himself, saying, "Let's go, to the bridge!"
The narrow bridge might relieve some of their stress, but it's unclear how well the test-takers swim.
There's no time to worry about that now; if they keep fighting, they'll be exhausted.
In the corner, a camera slowly rotates, broadcasting live the situation across the city.
Behind all this are the admissions officers from various martial arts schools, watching for promising talents and preparing to poach them.
Because of the chaotic nature of the competition, it's inevitable that some unlucky geniuses will be eliminated early.
At this point, it comes down to who has the best eyesight and can spot the bargains.
"The performance was pretty good, and the location they chose was also very good."
Luo Hongxia crossed his arms and nodded in agreement, then smiled slightly.
"It's just that if it's just a free-for-all among the test takers, it'll be a bit too boring."
"This place..."
Qin Sheng watched as the two red dots on the system drew closer, one of which was Yu Rui.
There are also three or four red dots in this area, all of which are followers who have taken the drug.
"They even pulled this stunt."
He shook his head helplessly. This was truly like a cult from a novel, with even the followers being made bosses and put in the test.
"It'll be good to see how the followers perform against other martial artists."
Instead of always testing with Ye Bufan, we should occasionally switch to other samples to see how much the potion improves the performance compared to ordinary martial artists.
Amidst the city ruins, Ye Bufan, rushing onto the bridge, had no idea that he would soon encounter his old rival.
He was watching the approaching candidates, praying that there wouldn't be too many good swimmers!
