Kick!
The player who had been attacked by Lu Li didn’t get any time to finish his curse. There was a flash of regret on his face. He probably felt like he didn’t want to stand to fight back, because he would drop some equipment.
After killing the last player, he jumped into the bushes with everyone else.
He had to regenerate his HP as he didn’t know how strong his new enemies would be, and it was likely to be a bloody battle.
He had been listening to everyone in the chat room, and knew that the battle in Grey Valley was now in full swing. Only the Stonetalon Mountains continued to operate as per usual. The main reason for that was because they were venture capitalists. The Prince Goblin’s dignity was inviolable, and the players were not ready to go to war with an NPC.


Several players soon appeared in his field of vision.
The one who was leading them did not hide his identity. His face was completely visible to Lu Li, which made Lu Li a little angry because he knew this person.
This person was wearing high orange leather boots, which were a part of a T1 set. The fact that this person was able to acquire parts of a T1 set demonstrated their affluence, but also confirmed the identity of this player – it was Torrent.
Torrent was a Troll, and although it was difficult to judge someone’s appearances in game, he was quite handsome, even for a Troll.
For such a handsome Troll to be wearing T1 equipment convinced Lu Li that he had no made a mistake. After all, he had fought several matches against this player, but he didn’t understand why this player would appear here. Did Gale Legion intend to fight Ruling Sword?

Come out, come out and fight!

He had two players by his side – a Warrior and a Paladin. Lu Li couldn’t check if there was a Thief sneaking around as well, but he kept his eye on Torrent as he spoke.

I will lure them in. Wait for me,
Lu Li whispered quietly to the people around him.
He had no choice. The players that had come were very strong. Lu Li wasn’t afraid of them, but if there were other professional players working with them, then he wouldn’t be able to kill Torrent. He would have to run away.
The current situation in Grey Valley was a mess.


Lu Li quietly moved and started to stand up.

Haha, I knew it was it,
Torrent said with a smile. He had a long green bow in his hand, but after seeing Lu Li, he actually put the bow away. He clearly had no intentions of fighting right away.

What do you want?
Lu Li asked slowly.

I’m just having some fun. Where are your friends? I couldn’t believe it when I heard that you actually transported to Grey Valley,
Torrent said as he looked at his surrounds. He could only see some leaves being blown in the wind and a stone cart in the middle of the road. There was no one else around.
In addition, there were the several bodies that had not been removed by the System.

They’ve gone home,
Lu Li said.
Torrent wasn’t convinced.

Well, I guess you’ll have to deal with the three of us yourself…


Four of you…
Lu Li corrected as he turned sharply and slammed his dagger into an invisible target. The Thief was reveaedl and Lu Li had stabbed his face with a very high Skill Completion Gouge.
Torrent couldn’t help but smile.



Who are you representing this time? Glory Capital or Gale Legion or both?

Lu Li wasn’t in a rush to attack; the Thief behind him wasn’t that threatening.

Right now, I am just representing myself,
Torrent said as he shook his head,
Or at least, I didn’t receive an order to do this.
Lu Li was silent. He didn’t fully believe Torrent’s words, but they made sense. Neither Glory Capital nor Gale Legion had declared war on them.

Well, how about we have a duel? If you win, you can send the players with you home.

Torrent obviously knew about Lu Li’s companions. They had a Thief too. Even though he had been hit with a Gouge, he could still see.

One on one?
Lu Li laughed.
Torrent had defeated him in a match before, but that was part of a bigger competition. He had defeated Lu Li very difficult conditions.

Well, given who you are, a one-on-one would be too easy,
Torrent said as he thought carefully. He wasn’t the kind of person who wanted to prove himself to Lu Li. His goal here was simple. He had to stall Lu Li for long enough so that the others could arrive to kill him.

Haha, maybe you just want us all to fight. When did Gale Legion stoop to this level?
Lu Li questioned as he waved Felstriker around, then continued,
You don’t dare to challenge me, because you will die in my hands, but if you don’t dare to challenge players in a one-on-one, then you’ll never be a great player…



Lu Li’s words were vicious.
Some of Torrent’s friends seemed stunned. Lu Li was pointing out something that affected Torrent’s career.
There was never any professional player that just focused on their abilities. One essential quality of a professional player was self-confidence, which was particularly important for a newcomer like Torrent. As such, Lu Li’s words were like a dagger that plunged deeply into him.
It was true. If he didn’t dare to take on a fair one on one, what chance did he have?

Okay, let’s have a one-on-one then. You can rest assured that the people I brought won’t attack.

Torrent had chosen his words carefully. Just because the three players around him wouldn’t attack didn’t mean that the others that were coming wouldn’t.
Killing Lu Li was something that yielded a great sense of accomplishment and also a rich reward.
Lu Li privately told the players with him to go.

You guys leave first.


Boss we don’t want to leave. We won’t die and we have confidence in you.



The others obviously didn’t want to desert their spiritual leader.

Your confidence is meaningless; he obviously has more people coming. This place will be crowded soon.

Lu Li knew exactly what was happening. Torrent’s promise was obviously full of loopholes. After all, Lu Li had grown up in an environment where nothing was off the table. The people in the Common District had done even more shameless things in order to survive.
