Chapter 1200: Shameless

Not just the audience, even the people from Quan Zhen Sect were stunned speechless by Spring Halo’s performance. Recovering from their shock, they asked Spring Halo, “F*ck, Brother Spring, what kind of strategy was that?”

Spring Halo answered proudly, “It is called winning the battle before it is even fought! You guys still have a lot to learn.”

“Well said!” The bunch from Quan Zhen Sect applauded for Spring Halo.

On Team Pugilists Don’t Cry’s side however, Purity and the rest were lashing out at Dragon Spirit, “You fool, why did you even pay heed to what he was saying?!”

“He scolded me first!” Dragon Spirit replied, feeling aggrieved.

Everyone retorted at his comment and shouted, “You still dare to argue back? Then why didn’t he get sent off the stage when he was scolding you? Go to one corner and reflect on your actions!!”

After receiving such a harsh scolding by the team, the little kid’s eyes were filled with tears as he sniffed and sat in one corner on his own.

After witnessing such a farce, Purity had finally come to the realisation that although the skills of her team members were definitely not a problem, in terms of craftiness, they definitely lost to the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect.

After thinking about it for a while, Purity instructed her team and said, “In the upcoming battles, no one is to exchange words with the people from Quan Zhen Sect. Is that understood?”

“I understand…”

After witnessing the plight of Dragon Spirit, everyone had naturally raised their guards against their opponent. Thus, they whole-heartedly listened to Purity’s instructions.

“It’s fine as long as you guys remember!” Upon hearing the team’s acknowledgement, Purity heaved a sigh of relief and added, “For the second match, Little Nian, you’re up.”

Nian Liuyun was an emotionally stable and firm person, and was the person that had the most experience with fighting against the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect. Thus, he was the one that Purity had the least worries of.

Following the flash of white light, Nian Liuyun was teleported onto the stage.

On the other side, Fearless was whispering a few instructions to Ming Du. Upon hearing what Fearless had instructed him to do, an evil smile crept up on his face as he was teleported onto the stage as well.

Apart from Wang Yu, Ming Du was the person Nian Liuyun had come into contact with the most. He knew that Ming Du was filled with bullsh*t. Thus, upon seeing that his opponent was Ming Du, Nian Liuyun took a few steps back and consciously closed off his ears to block off any nonsense that Ming Du might spew from his mouth.

As a martial artist, one’s hearing was an extremely important sensory function, especially more so when fighting against a magic caster as one would have to rely on their ears to make out the incantations of the Magician.

After blocking off his ears, Nian Liuyun immediately sharpened his gaze and stared intently at Ming Du, raising his caution to the maximum.

Upon seeing Nian Liuyun putting up his guard against him, Ming Du unexpectedly did not spout any nonsensical words, and instead, stared intently back at Nian Liuyun.

Contrary to what he had expected, Ming Du remained speechless, causing his heart to start panicking.

After all, Nian Liuyun had personally witnessed just how crafty the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect could be.

Furthermore, after witnessing Dragon Spirit getting sent off the stage without being able to engage in a fight with the opponent, Nian Liuyun was even more cautious against Ming Du. At this moment, his entire focus had been placed on Ming Du’s actions, to the point where he did not even pay heed to the countdown timer.

At this moment, his entire focus had been placed on Ming Du’s actions, to the point where he did not even pay heed to the countdown timer.

It should be known that whenever someone’s entire focus is being placed on a person, it is easy for a person’s focus to follow with the target…

In normal situations, such a slight action by Ming Du would not have caught Nian Liuyun’s attention. However, now that he was completely focused on him, every small action that Ming Du made would result in an overreaction on his part.

Following Ming Du’s action, Nian Liuyun’s heart started to panic as he frantically turned his head around to look behind his. At the same time, Ming Du’s right hand raised his staff as a thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky.

[Berserk Thunder] was one of Ming Du’s strongest single-target abilities. Given Ming Du’s damage output, even a thick and sturdy Shield Warrior would not be able to withstand a hit from it, much less an agility based Pugilist.

“Boom!!!”

An explosion rang out in the entire arena.

The pitiful Nian Liuyun wasn’t even able to recover his senses, before he was instantly eliminated and sent off the stage after receiving a direct blow from Ming Du’s attack.

Upon seeing the change in his landscape, Nian Liuyun’s face turned blank for a moment, seeming as if he had yet to understand what was going on.

Upon witnessing this scene, Purity started rubbing her temples as she revealed a look of frustration.

The expression on everyone else’s faces was also complicated at this moment.

A look of grievance and helplessness appeared on Purity and her team’s faces.

It couldn’t be helped. Even though their skills were way better than their opponent, they weren’t even given the opportunity to use it before they were sent off the stage. This feeling of frustration wasn’t something anyone could easily understand.

It couldn’t be helped. The Quan Zhen Sect might not be a match for these fellas in terms of Kung Fu but in terms of playing the game, these Kung Fu masters still had a long way to go.

Upon seeing the expressions on their faces, Fearless coldly smiled and said, “Tsk, don’t cry yet, there is more to come for you!”

…

“F*ck!!”

Upon seeing the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect playing dirty once more, the audience present went into a huge rage once more, “What sort of trickery is this? It is too shameless! If you have the guts, fight them fair and square!”

The enraged audience started waving the cans and bottles in their hands as they chanted, “Quan Zhen Sect is shameless, get out of the gaming scene! Quan Zhen Sect is shameless, get out of the gaming scene…”

The infuriated cries exploded within the arena. If it were not for the security in place, the people from Quan Zhen Sect would have been beaten to death by the crowd.

Facing the outrage from the audience, the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect proudly cupped their fists at the audience and responded, “Thank you! Thank you for the praise! We will continue to strive to be better…”

…

Of course, the party that was having the largest headache was the host.

In the few years since the professional gaming competitions became a segment in the Olympics till now, there has never been a team that was so shameless in their tactics before.

What was more infuriating was the fact that the actions of these people weren’t considered against the rules… It wouldn’t be practical for them to forcefully remove the team from the competition.

Upon seeing how agitated the crowd was, the organisers had to do something about Quan Zhen Sect’s actions. The organising committee could only temporarily put the match on hold for a while and adjourn an emergency meeting.

Ten minutes later, with the decision of the organising committee, the actions Quan Zhen Sect weren’t considered against the rules and thus they could still continue to participate in the tournament. Additionally, the first two matches will be taken into account and will not be voided. However, the players were no longer allowed to use any words or actions to provoke the opponent.

Because of Quan Zhen Sect, this was the first time in history that trash-talking before a battle was prohibited.

In response to the organising committee’s decision, the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect expressed their stance and said, “If you are lacking in ability, it has nothing to do with the rules and there is no point in finding any excuses. Even if you stop us from speaking, we still win regardless.”

With a single sentence, they had switched their position from the culprit to that of the victim in this situation. Their words were shameless and their actions were despicable, Quan Zhen Sect had shown the audience the true meaning of not having a bottom line.

The uproar was merely a temporary one. Shortly after the announcement, the match resumed.

“Who will be fighting next?”

After losing to Quan Zhen Sect twice in a row, the morale of the players from Team Pugilists Don’t Cry was at an all-time low. A shadow had been formed in their hearts, and thus, no one was willing to volunteer themselves for the third battle.

It wasn’t because they weren’t confident in their own skills, but rather, they were afraid of how shameless the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect can get. After all, losing to someone of a higher skill level wasn’t shameful, but losing to someone far inferior was.

“Ai…”

Upon seeing the situation everyone was in, Purity sighed and said, “The shameless bunch had wanted to bring down our morale all along. It seems like I will have to be the one to fight in the third battle.”

Now that everyone’s morale was at rock bottom, if they were unable to win the next battle, the subsequent bouts in this match-up would be all the more difficult. As the captain of Team Pugilists Don’t Cry, Purity’s abilities and battle awareness were a notch above the rest. In this situation, she could only take up the mantle and emerge victorious to raise her own team’s morale.
