Zhang Jiale went off the stage, and Mo Fan remained, his Deception still possessing seventy-two percent of his health.

Twenty-eight percent, exchanged for twenty-one percent of the opponent's. Xingxin continued to maintain its lead in the team competition.

Who would be the next player for Tyranny?

The audience had become accustomed to the rhythm of the third round of the playoffs. At this moment, everyone's attention quickly focused on the losing team's player area. There was no need to look at the electronic scoreboard to find out who the next player would be; this was where the information appeared first.

A player stood up.

The Tyranny audience burst into applause, both welcoming Zhang Jiale off the stage and cheering for the new player.

Qin Muyun.

The most stable fifth player beside Tyranny's four Gods now stood at the fourth position, generally considered the point-scoring opportunity in the team competition. It was only at this moment that everyone realized that among Tyranny's four Gods, Zhang Xinjie was a healer and couldn't participate in the arena, and the remaining three—Captain Han Wenqing, Lin Jingyan, and Zhang Jiale—had all been defeated.

They had always been a symbol of reliability for the Tyranny team! But now, after the three of them had stepped up, Tyranny was still at a disadvantage. Would the difficult situation that followed be entrusted to the remaining Tyranny players?

It couldn't be said that the Tyranny audience didn't trust the other players, but compared to those three, there was inevitably a bit of a drop. For a moment, they felt uneasy, and the applause became hesitant and disordered.

Perhaps not everyone would notice such details, but Qin Muyun, who was about to enter the arena, was precisely such a meticulous person.

He heard the hesitation and worry in the applause.

But he wasn't moved in the slightest. The more it was like this, the more he needed to work hard on the field. He needed to use his performance to dispel the supporters' worries and concerns.

Qin Muyun walked onto the field, entered the player booth, and the match was about to begin.

On Xingxin's side, Chen Guo also looked solemn. She had deeply felt the rich possibilities in the playoff matches. Even with Xingxin's current lead, she couldn't relax. And now, seeing the players facing each other on the field, she felt even more uneasy.

What a narrow road.

Mo Fan and Qin Muyun met again in the arena.

Once known as the God-killer, he had suffered great losses in the previous two team competition encounters with Qin Muyun. This wasn't just a matter of luck. Even Mo Fan, a man of few words, had proactively expressed his helplessness after the match, indicating that Qin Muyun was indeed his nemesis, leaving him somewhat at a loss.

And now, only three nights had passed since their last encounter. Even if Mo Fan still had room to grow, three days probably wouldn't be enough to complete such a transformation.

If Qin Muyun's restrictions on Mo Fan in the previous two encounters were used as a benchmark, then after this match, Xingxin's advantage in the team competition would probably be greatly reduced.

"Add oil..." Chen Guo clenched her fists, her palms full of sweat.

The match began.

Qin Muyun's Zero Degree Celsius charged straight ahead, while Mo Fan's Deception circled around, just like the previous match, circling around from the left.

Due to the lava's division, there were few route options on this map. Fewer options meant fewer changes. In the end, the scene of the two players discovering each other's characters from their perspectives was almost exactly the same as in the previous match.

Then Mo Fan continued to control Deception forward, while Qin Muyun made the same choice as Zhang Jiale: Zero Degree Celsius circled around to the front. The route was also the same as Dazzling Hundred Flowers. There were no other options on this map!

Deception was still the same Deception.

Zero Degree Celsius's movement speed wasn't much different from Dazzling Hundred Flowers. The final contact between the two characters was completely a repeat of the previous match.

However, this time Qin Muyun initiated the attack proactively as soon as he entered the attack range. Zero Degree Celsius's dual guns spat out fire alternately.

Bullets flew.

Qin Muyun's outstanding positioning and movement techniques were highly praised, but this was initially overlooked by the public. The fifth player beside the four Gods had a very thin presence.

In fact, Qin Muyun's excellence wasn't just in positioning and movement. Positioning and movement were his weapon, but what truly allowed him to perform steadily on the field was his comprehensive and solid foundation.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that he was once overlooked. Basic skills, the most fundamental things, were commonplace and unremarkable. Occasional flashes of brilliance were easily overlooked even by experts. Moreover, he was in such an eye-catching lineup of four Gods.

But even a stone that doesn't shine, if it stands there firmly for a long time, will eventually be noticed.

Qin Muyun's talent was discovered and recognized by the public little by little.

No one would ignore him anymore. Finding hidden strengths in him had even become an interesting game.

For example, right now, shooting while moving, the muzzles of the dual guns were very stable. This was undoubtedly a very solid foundation.

Bullets flew past, the attack points clear and precise.

Such a player would never act rashly on the field and always had a clear intention.

Bang! A puff of purple smoke spread out.

Smoke grenade, another smoke grenade. Mo Fan's initial choice was exactly the same as in the previous round.

But the opponent he encountered wasn't the same.

The previous one, Zhang Jiale, was at a disadvantage in health, so he wanted to use a trick and set a trap for Mo Fan. But Qin Muyun was different. In terms of health, the full-health Zero Degree Celsius was stronger than Deception, so he wasn't in a hurry at all. Seeing Deception release the smoke grenade, he immediately controlled Zero Degree Celsius to retreat, while the normal attacks that didn't require mana continued towards the smoke.

Bang bang bang, bang bang bang.

A bullet pierced through the purple smoke, and slender trajectories appeared in the smoke. It didn't seem to matter to Qin Muyun whether he hit or not. But Mo Fan, using this smoke screen, had no way to attack Zero Degree Celsius. Qin Muyun carefully maintained his distance.

Mo Fan didn't waste any more time, and Deception immediately rushed out of the smoke.

Qin Muyun immediately turned the muzzle of Zero Degree Celsius, but Deception's movement was extremely fast.

Arc Flash! An assassin skill, often used as a movement skill by Ye Xiu's unspecialized character. Mo Fan's Deception was now using it in the same way.

Deception's figure darted forward, and the firepower turned by Zero Degree Celsius all missed.

Qin Muyun didn't panic. Zero Degree Celsius's hands holding the guns were still so steady. Zero Degree Celsius shot and retreated. Flying Shot? This was also a type of positioning technique, and as a positioning expert, Qin Muyun's Flying Shot skills were indeed more refined. The coordination between the back jump and the recoil of the shooting was perfect. When he needed to borrow force, he would definitely touch the ground to land and shoot to borrow force, always keeping himself at the highest speed.

In the blink of an eye, Deception had used up all of his Shadow Clone Technique. Moving forward another section, there was still a distance between him and Zero Degree Celsius.

Deception formed another seal!

The technique was very fast. When Qin Muyun fired the attack that had been adjusted by the Shadow Clone Technique, the seal had already been completed.

Deception clearly took one step, but the character was able to move out almost two steps.

Ninjutsu: Ground Shrink!

Another movement skill.

Arc Flash, Shadow Clone Technique, Ground Shrink! Three skills were used in succession, and a large amount of displacement was completed in an instant. It didn't seem like much when looking at it, but when you thought back to where Deception was before, you would be shocked.

But what was even more amazing was Qin Muyun.

Deception used three skills to move forward, while what about him? His Zero Degree Celsius only used basic Flying Shot movement. However, after Deception's three skills, the distance closed was a bit unsatisfactory.

Such a chase wasn't just about speed.

Any movement is a process from selecting a position to moving; any movement competition can't avoid the confrontation of these two skills.

Qin Muyun gave his Zero Degree Celsius efficient positioning, and with his outstanding talent in this area, he could not only ensure his own efficiency but also use attacks to make the opponent's movement extremely difficult.

The three movement skills failed to catch up with the backward Flying Shot. It wasn't really that the absolute speed couldn't keep up, but that Deception's absolute speed was limited.

And at this time, the distance he possessed didn't help him gain much initiative. It could even be said that this distance, which wasn't close enough but not far enough, put him at a disadvantage.

But Mo Fan didn't seem to hesitate much. After Ground Shrink, it wasn't enough. Deception formed another seal.

What kind of ninjutsu was this again?

Mo Fan's seal-forming technique was too fast, and Qin Muyun couldn't distinguish the specific skill from the hand movements. But Zero Degree Celsius's attack undoubtedly continued to follow closely.

Bang bang bang bang...

A series of bullets actually hit Deception, sending him flying lightly, but the afterimage shattered in the air, and what flew out was just a Substitution Puppet.

Ninjutsu: Substitution Technique!

The real body had been sent away, just like the Shadow Clone Technique. But completely different from the Shadow Clone Technique, the target that the real body of the Shadow Clone Technique went to could be determined by the player's control, but the Substitution Technique was random. Distance, direction, it was completely random where it was sent.

So, the Substitution Technique wasn't a skill that could be used as a movement skill, because it didn't have stability.

But not having stability also meant having possibility!

A random direction, a random distance. What if it just happened to send the character to Zero Degree Celsius's side?

This was a gamble, a real, truly luck-based gamble. No matter how experienced the player, no matter how skilled the expert with excellent positioning and prediction abilities, they couldn't predict where Deception would appear at this moment.

Because even he didn't know. No one in the entire world, the entire universe, knew.

Where would Deception's real body appear?

Amidst the exclamations of the audience, Empty Cicada Double Kill. Deception struck Zero Degree Celsius twice with hand blades.

Mo Fan gambled correctly!

Deception appeared in a good attacking position, and the complete unpredictability made it impossible for Qin Muyun to capture him. This position, which was originally just good, became perfect because of this.

A silent ninja attack, one strike, hit!
