Although Qiao Lian had lost the game to Prince…
It wasn’t by any means a crushing defeat.
On the contrary, even Prince had had to fight hard against her maneuvering. There were even a couple of times that he had almost been killed because he was slightly distracted.
Hence, although Qiao Lian had lost the game, Prince was more determined than ever that she should be his coach.
Because there weren’t many gamers who were noteworthy to him.
This was the sort of appreciation that a person with talent had for another talented person.
Yet…
Before he could say a word, Zi Chuan’s challenge came through.
Zi Chuan.
His pupils shrank at once upon recognizing that name.
Could this be the famed eSports player Zi Chuan from eight years ago?
Of late, he had been unmatched in the gaming world. Hence, some people had made the remark that if there was anyone who could take him on, then it had to be Zi Chuan.
The unfortunate thing was that Zi Chuan had bowed out of the gaming world eight years ago.
Not having had a chance to play against Zi Chuan had always been a regret for him.
And now…
Could this Zi Chuan be a fake?
Regardless of whether he was the real Zi Chuan or not, he had to accept the invitation to begin with.
Hence, with no time to spare to create trouble for Qiao Lian, he accepted the invite straight away.
When he entered the room, he typed:
[Prince: Are you the Zi Chuan from eight years ago?]
But the other party did not bother chatting and immediately started the game.
Both players selected the champion Zhou Yu.
Holding his breath and focusing his attention, Prince ventured forward.
The champions came face-to-face. Prince had the intention of verifying the opponent’s authenticity when Zi Chuan threw a stun spell.
Prince got a shock but did not fret, although he had missed the opportunity.
On the contrary, he was excited as he became aware that this was indeed Zi Chuan.
He rolled up his sleeves to prepare for a great battle.
To and fro, the two of them dueled until at last Prince’s hp fell slightly below Zi Chuan’s. Prince activated the flash function, retreated and hid under his own defense turret.
At this point, pushing a confrontation was no longer a good strategy.
He should be able to force Zi Chuan to retreat.
The moment Prince had that thought, the opponent also activated the flash function and reappeared under his defense turret.
Prince narrowed his eyes at once, as the both of them simultaneously commenced an all-out attack to kill.
Slayed.
Two voices in the game announced:
Zi Chuan slayed Prince.
Prince slayed Zi Chuan.
Prince stared at the screen in a daze!
What was with this person?
Exchanging a life for another, that was so not worth it.
In gaming, there was nothing worse than a gamer would fight till death.
This sort of suicide mission had to be dealt with and stopped.
As the champions resurrected, Prince could not help but type:
[Prince: Brother, was that worth it?]
Very quickly, Zi Chuan responded with a simple:
[Zi Chuan: Yes.]
Of course it had been worth it.
From the onset, he hadn’t begun this match to win.
He had more self-awareness than that.
Prince was new blood and a rising star. Having played professionally for so many years, he had to have practiced more than Shen Liangchuan.
He had come here only to keep his promise to Xiao Qiao.
In a game, whoever killed her once, he would kill three times as much.
In the game earlier on, he had killed Xiao Qiao twice. Hence now, his mission in this game would be to kill Prince six times.
For now, this was only the first.
The skilled one had now met the suicidal one.
Hence began the explosive, epic battle.
Ten minutes later.
Prince was completely speechless, staring at his 6:6 result.
There hadn’t been a single attack to the tower, just a head-on showdown between the two champions.
But it had to be said: it was a sizzling red-hot fight like never before.
Whom the winner would turn out to be was anybody’s guess!
