Chapter 1720: Frenzy

Chapter 1720: Chapter 1720: Frenzy

They naturally didn’t know that in his previous life, Li Yao first chose the profession of a thief and played for two years, having decent skills himself. He was a person who could endure loneliness and had put a lot of effort into practicing stealth.

Although he later switched to being a Hunter, he had battled many powerful thieves. Hunters and thieves are naturally sworn enemies, so his mastery of stealth was naturally profound.

Moreover, his spiritual power was incredibly strong now. Under his divine eyes, nothing could be hidden. After numerous deductions, all his actions seemed casual yet were meticulously rehearsed countless times.

This was his current level of control over his body. Li Yao considered that his thieving skills weren’t as refined as those god-level thieves of the peak era in the past, but with the game just starting, even the top thieving skills were just so-so.

The Leopard Man’s attempt to find his trace through the flaws in stealth was simply wishful thinking.

In fact, many experts could already see the skill gap between the two from their movements.

Just in the stealth aspect, although the Leopard Man seemed perfect, compared to Li Yao’s grace, he was far lacking.

Furthermore, the terrain here wasn’t extremely complex, making it highly favorable for stealth, so as long as one practiced stealth, it was almost impossible to be discovered with a bit of caution.

Li Yao didn’t use the Sonic Arrow and even refrained from employing the mother insect, as they were skills of a profound level. Basically, one could consider them fair cheats, and Li Yao didn’t stoop to using the mother insect against him.

For Li Yao, he had many ways to lure the opponent out.

In the eyes of the audience, the two were at their closest when merely five yards apart, both continuously circling, attempting to find the opponent’s flaw.

Audiences saw the Leopard Man’s eyes glow red, yet still couldn’t detect Li Yao’s presence, making them realize that Li Yao’s stealth level must be very high too.

This was understandable, given Li Yao’s personal equipment, passives, achievements, and titles, many of which enhanced stealth, so naturally, his stealth level was unquestionable.

The two stalemated for over a minute, neither finding the other.

There was a small pebble under Li Yao’s foot, and in the eyes of the audience, Li Yao shouldn’t have stepped on the pebble at all, yet he did precisely step on it.

Crack!

"Caught you."

Then came the noise, and the Leopard Man, hidden in the shadows, launched a ferocious pounce, with claw shadows flashing as if tearing Li Yao apart.

Splat!

The Leopard Man saw the figure he tore apart and turned pale, but before he could react, he felt a strong force hit him at the waist.

With a miserable cry, the Leopard Man was sent flying sideways, his health instantly dropping by a fifth.

It turned out that at the moment Li Yao stepped on the stone, he activated a shadow effect, separating a shadow to step on the pebble while his true self stood aside.

The Leopard Man pounced, and instead of using his bow and arrow, Li Yao simply kicked him.

The Leopard Man rolled in the air, landing somewhat awkwardly, and looked at the shoe print on his waist, his eyes turning red.

To him, this was a deliberate insult from Li Yao, and indeed, he was not wrong in this assumption.

Judging by Li Yao’s skills, he had an opportunity to kill him just now, but when faced with such a taunting opponent, Li Yao would not let him lose easily.

Everyone knew that no matter how the Leopard Man justified it, his real motive was simply to become famous by trampling on Li Yao.

Dealing with such a person, Li Yao had no reservations about humiliating him until he couldn’t lift his head.

"Is this your skill? If it’s just like this, sorry, I’m really not interested in continuing to play." Li Yao showed no mercy with his words.

"It’s just the beginning, who do you think you are?"

The Leopard Man was about to explode with rage, his body flickering with a crimson light, undergoing a transformation as it became covered in a layer of Keratin Armor.

Even his claws and teeth were reinforced, and he had already activated his ultimate move.

His body, carrying afterimages, charged toward Li Yao with incredible speed, aiming for a direct hit.

This was a Sprint Skill of the Druid Wild Form, reaching Li Yao in an instant.

Swipe!

As the claw shadow passed, Li Yao’s shadow was shredded again, and the furious Leopard Man wanted to continue attacking, but suddenly felt a tightness around his neck.

A strong force involuntarily forced his body to bend backward.

Only then did the audience see that when the Leopard Man tore the shadow, Li Yao’s true form, upon separating, already had his Star Bow encircling the Leopard Man’s neck.

Then Li Yao twisted with both hands, and the bowstring strangled the Leopard Man’s neck.

Back-to-back, Li Yao stood there effortlessly, while behind his shoulder, the Leopard Man had his neck strangled by the bowstring, tongue hanging long, eyes bloodshot, almost popping out, struggling desperately.

But compared to Li Yao, he had no chance to resist — no matter how he struggled, he couldn’t break free.

"Why would I need arrows to deal with you? Your prideful core skills and techniques are nothing but a joke in the face of absolute power. I have a thousand ways to play you to death."

Though struggling in anger, the Leopard Man’s efforts were futile.

Li Yao snorted coldly and applied a bit more force; with a ’crack’, the Leopard Man’s neck was directly strangled.

Caressing the Star Bow’s string, Li Yao sighed and said, "Sorry, using you to kill a trashy being like this really is squandering a treasure. It won’t happen next time."

The crowd from the Leopard Man’s guild was furious, their clamor reaching the skies, while the spectators were left gaping in shock.

They had imagined many outcomes, but never that Li Yao would kill the Leopard Man in such a manner.

Although the Leopard Man would surely be mortified, any expert could see that Li Yao’s seemingly casual, simple actions demonstrated a terrifying grasp of timing.

The battle seemed simple but considering how strong this Leopard Man was, being able to kill a top-notch Leopard Man so effortlessly by Li Yao, even without using any powerful skills, spoke volumes of his terror.

The Leopard Man was revived again, roaring as he intended to charge but was held back and dragged back to his guild. He was nearly going insane, imagining himself becoming a laughing stock in others’ eyes from this day forward.

If it was a normal battle, losing would just mean his skills weren’t as good, nothing more than saying he was arrogant. Even if it was a fierce battle, losing would be considered honorable, after all, he clashed with someone like Prairie Fire.

But the way he died now, he couldn’t accept it in any way.

"Prairie Fire, you wait, I will surely kill you," the Leopard Man roared.

"Then you might as well die. I have no interest in tangling with you."

Gale!

Li Yao’s form suddenly split into three, triggering an equipment effect. Each Li Yao split into seven shadows, and in an instant, twenty-four Li Yao were bending bows and setting arrows in the air.

Then arrows rained down like meteors. One Li Yao in a boosted state could shoot seven arrows per second, so with twenty-four Li Yao, it was.....
