Tianji, Falling Flower Palm!

A small combo consisting of low-level skills. The powerful knock-back effect of Falling Flower Palm sent an NPC into the air, directly crashing into Lord Grim, who was still scaling the mountain wall. Once again, an offensive was launched against Ye Xiu.

Ye Xiu was caught in a dilemma. At least, that’s what the pro players thought.

He didn't attack earlier because he was afraid of attracting the hatred of the NPCs, hoping to rely solely on the NPCs' combat power to wear down Sun Xiang.

Who knew that these NPCs weren't strong enough. In the end, they didn't inflict much damage on One Autumn Leaf; instead, they replenished One Autumn Leaf's stats.

Five-attribute Chasers, golden Battle Spirit. At this moment, One Autumn Leaf's state had reached its peak, the highest it had been in over a decade.

And the person he was challenging at this moment was none other than Ye Xiu, the one who brought him into this world.

How should Ye Xiu face this?

If he didn't attack earlier, attacking now would attract the NPCs' hatred. Facing One Autumn Leaf in peak condition with the interference of the NPCs was clearly not as good as attacking earlier.

At this point, perhaps he could only continue to avoid the battle!

That’s what everyone thought. Who knew that this time, Ye Xiu would choose not to have Lord Grim dodge. Although the knock-back effect of Falling Flower Palm was strong, sending a character flying high like this would only make them fly slower and slower. In the end, the threat wasn't great. Lord Grim reached out and easily grabbed the flying NPC, then threw it down at One Autumn Leaf.

Everyone was stunned. In their opinion, this was the worst choice. Ye Xiu couldn't be that clueless, could he? What was this guy planning?

The observing pro players began to think, but Sun Xiang on the field didn't overthink. He had already decided not to engage in a battle of wits with Ye Xiu anymore. He focused all his energy on executing the offensive in front of him.

No matter how Ye Xiu would respond, he only had one plan in mind: defeat him, eliminate all obstacles, defeat him!

Sidestep!

One Autumn Leaf avoided the NPC that Lord Grim threw back. He swung his spear, Evil Destroyer, and swept up another NPC, using it as a human cannonball to smash towards Lord Grim. And because Lord Grim grabbed the NPC, he immediately attracted the attention of the NPCs. Some ranged classes began to target him on the mountain wall.

Boom!!

First, a cannonball landed, but Ye Xiu had anticipated it and had Lord Grim dodge in advance. The human cannonball thrown by One Autumn Leaf flew over, and Lord Grim dodged again.

Sun Xiang had already started attacking Ye Xiu, but he wasn't in a rush to charge up. He continued to deal with the NPCs attacking him, and whenever he had the chance, he would throw these NPCs at Lord Grim.

No matter how skilled Ye Xiu was, maneuvering on a mountain wall was still not as free as on the ground. Facing the attacks launched by Sun Xiang and the NPCs together, he quickly became overwhelmed.

"What's the point of this?" The pro players once again expressed their confusion.

Since he was going to dodge in the end anyway, why did he bother with that throw to grab the NPC, only to attract so many attacks? He could have dodged that earlier. If he dodged, he would only have to face Sun Xiang. If it was just Sun Xiang's One Autumn Leaf throwing human cannonballs like this, Ye Xiu could have Lord Grim keep dodging with ease.

"I don't get it!" Almost everyone was shaking their heads, completely unable to understand what Ye Xiu was planning. As for the TV broadcast, it was even quieter. Even the pro players couldn't see his intention this time, so how dare Pan Lin and Li Yibo discuss it? They simply pretended that the problem didn't exist.

Only Zhang Xinjie, Zhang Xinjie of Team Tyranny, who never overlooked any details, had a thoughtful expression on his face.

"What?" Han Wenqing asked. He understood his teammate. Seeing him like this, he knew he had thought of something. As soon as he asked, all the players who could hear him looked over, eager for the answer to this question.

"The ambush above the mountain wall is probably about to be triggered," Zhang Xinjie said.

"Oh?"

Everyone looked over. From their overhead view, they could clearly see the NPCs above the mountain wall. They had been moving since the two NPC teams spawned, but they seemed to be just preparing. Even now, there was no sign of them launching an attack. Where did Zhang Xinjie see it from?

"The conditions for triggering their ambush are not clear, but I think there are only two: either time, when a certain amount of time has passed, they will attack; or the casualties of the NPCs, when the damage reaches a certain level, they will completely clean up," Zhang Xinjie analyzed. Everyone saw in the previous demonstration that the ambush above was a third group of people, different from the two teams of NPCs below, and they could be said to be the ultimate victors. They took advantage of the two teams below fighting to the death and annihilated them without taking any damage.

"Ye Xiu is waiting for this?" someone said.

"It seems so. During the previous demonstration, I paid attention to the time the ambush was triggered and the number of people in the two teams. Both conditions are almost met," Zhang Xinjie said.

"But even if we wait for this ambush, what can it do? Will it change the situation?" someone asked doubtfully.

Zhang Xinjie didn't answer, but continued to think deeply. Obviously, this was a question he hadn't figured out either. Judging from the timing of Ye Xiu's sudden attack on the NPCs, it should be closely related to the triggering of the ambush, but Zhang Xinjie couldn't figure out what the triggering of the ambush meant to Ye Xiu. That was just an ambush, not his reinforcements. The attack of the ambush was indiscriminate. Whether it was Lord Grim or One Autumn Leaf, they wouldn't deliberately avoid them. There was a greater chance that they would be regarded as targets to be eliminated. What was Ye Xiu thinking?

Just then, above the valley, a small stone was accidentally knocked down by an NPC. The stone fell, and no one noticed it. It fell to the bottom, and didn't attract anyone's attention, but it seemed like a signal. The NPCs ambushing on both sides above the mountain wall suddenly started to act in unison. Without any greeting, as soon as they appeared, a wave of rolling stones was pushed down.

Boom boom boom boom!!

The valley was immediately filled with the roar of rolling stones landing. Many NPCs were smashed into mincemeat. At the same time, the NPCs on both sides began to launch attacks with various ranged Glory skills. The canyon was suddenly attacked, and it was in a mess. However, the two teams of NPCs didn't seem to be panicked. Those who could launch attacks on the top immediately counterattacked, and the melee classes continued to fight to the death below. At the same time, they didn't forget Lord Grim and One Autumn Leaf.

One Autumn Leaf still had NPCs entangled around him, but Sun Xiang focused most of his attention on Lord Grim. He had seen the ambush being triggered. The NPCs on the bottom sides wouldn't be able to hold on for too long. After that, it was unclear whether the ambush would continue to attack their characters. From the current point of view, the ambush's attacks were targeted at both of them.

Sun Xiang didn't care about these things, and didn't deliberately think about how this situation could be exploited. He just盯死Lord Grim. When this wave of high-altitude ambush occurred, Ye Xiu finally couldn't let Lord Grim continue to hold on in mid-air on the mountain wall and finally fell back to the ground.

Charge!

One Autumn Leaf charged up!

Lord Grim charged up!

Surrounded by chaos, attacks from different directions were still greeting the two of them, but they were both staring straight at their opponents, charging up sharply.

Overlord Chop!

Sun Xiang started by having One Autumn Leaf use Overlord Chop, a 180-degree sweep, sweeping away three NPCs along with it.

But Ye Xiu wasn't so easily dealt with. Lord Grim drew his sword and used Collapsing Mountain Strike! He actually flew over the fierce strike swept out by Overlord Chop, and chopped down directly at One Autumn Leaf.

Retreat!

One Autumn Leaf retracted his move and retreated. Five types of Chaser status, eight-stage Battle Spirit, One Autumn Leaf was at his peak in strength and speed at this time, and his actions were more agile than ever before.

With One Autumn Leaf like this, and with so many NPCs interfering around him, Ye Xiu was actually going to fight him head-on at this time?

What on earth is he thinking!!

The pro players were anxious. They didn't believe that Ye Xiu hadn't calculated anything. They didn't believe that he had really started an unprepared battle like this. There must be something they had overlooked.

Upward Slash!

Collapsing Mountain Strike missed, and Lord Grim swung his sword smoothly for an Upward Slash.

However, Dragon Breaks the Ranks!

One Autumn Leaf's Evil Destroyer was swung down like Mount Tai, with too many buffs stacked, giving him unparalleled speed. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for a Battle Mage to use Dragon Breaks the Ranks, which was even faster than Upward Slash, in this situation.

Dragon Breaks the Ranks had super-strong judgement. Let alone an Upward Slash, even if there were five Swordsmen using Upward Slash at the same time, they would all be slapped down by this Dragon Breaks the Ranks.

Boom!

Evil Destroyer struck the ground. This strike劈将Lord Grim from head to toe, but Lord Grim didn't fall. Evil Destroyer actually passed through his body!

Shadow Steps!

The first weapon skill chosen by Ye Xiu in the decisive battle, Shadow Steps of the Swordsman class, was finally revealed.

However, One Autumn Leaf's Dragon Breaks the Ranks came so fast that it was impossible to have cast it at that time. Shadow Steps was probably cast before Collapsing Mountain Strike. It was just that Ye Xiu's cast was too fast. The command for Shadow Steps was given, but before the shadow could split, he had already completed the operation for Collapsing Mountain Strike. This Collapsing Mountain Strike, when he jumped out, he was still one person, but when he landed, he was already one of the four Lord Grims split out after Shadow Steps was cast, a shadow.

Sun Xiang realized something was wrong the moment Evil Destroyer pierced through Lord Grim's head. He hurriedly wanted to cancel this skill and readjust, but unexpectedly, just as the cancellation operation was completed, Dragon Breaks the Ranks had already smashed into the ground.

Moonlight Slash, Full Moonlight Slash!

Two beautiful blades of light flashed up, leaving two bloody marks on One Autumn Leaf, while knocking him into the air.

"With One Autumn Leaf in this state, do you have enough experience to control him?" Ye Xiu asked in the chat.
