Chapter 81 I've already used so much effort

【Arrow Piercing the Clouds】

The faintest sound of wind blew, and a white shadow flew through the air, its target Tang Ruobing, who was using psionic suppression. This was an extremely stealthy sneak attack that could be easily overlooked if one was not careful.

More importantly, Lei Peng, who was originally responsible for protecting Tang Ruobing, has been eliminated. The attack power of the six fire dragons is too strong. Even if he desperately arrives, he will not be able to survive such an attack.

Because he has people he must protect!

A sneak attack?
Ye Mingqiu's gaze sharpened. His combat instincts had already alerted him to the attack. Driven by instinct, he subconsciously reached out and grabbed at a certain direction to his side. With a sudden clench, he caught the flying white arrow in his palm.

'Holy crap!?'
The usually calm and collected Ying couldn't hold back any longer. She stared dumbfounded at Ye Mingqiu, who had caught the arrow, and when she saw the man turn his gaze toward her, a feeling of impending doom overwhelmed her in an instant.

run! Run!

We absolutely cannot stay here!

Ye Mingqiu took a step forward, gripped the arrow and made a throwing motion, aiming at the archer Shadow in the distance, his sharp gaze locking onto him.

The Dragon Slayer reacted quickly, unleashing Dragon Slayer sword energy at Tang Ruobing. The Earth Knight attempted to use Earth Protection on Shadow again, but Feng Xinglie, who had lost his ability to cast spells, could only watch helplessly. Xia Qingxue was ready to heal him at any moment.

And at this very moment

[Surge of Killing Intent]

A surge of murderous intent erupted instantly. Feng Xinglie was almost unaffected because his mental attribute was far superior to Ye Mingqiu's. Xia Qingxue was the second to react because she was a support character with a mental attribute, but her health was still reduced by nearly half.

The Dragon Slayer, Earth Knight, and Shadow—none of them possess any mental specializations, and their mental attributes are much weaker than Ye Mingqiu's. Moreover, Ye Mingqiu has the dual mental strength amplification of [Spiritual Energy - Surge] and [Basic - Spirit], which can increase his mental strength by 95%. His 15 points of mental attribute can fully exert the effect of 29.25 mental strength!
The three of them were simultaneously stunned. The Earth Guardian and the Dragon Slayer Sword Qi were interrupted, and Shadow's escape also stopped. When he came to his senses, the white light and shadow were already in front of him.

"Pong!"

The arrow pierced through the shadow's throat, turning it into a streak of white light, and it disappeared from the battlefield.

He was eliminated!
The resurrected Shadow, standing outside the arena, was completely bewildered. He couldn't understand why a level 3 Lord-level archer like himself could be caught by a level 1 support's strongest attack, Piercing Arrow, which was then thrown back and instantly killed. This wasn't right, was it? This didn't make sense, did it? This was supposed to be a support, right?

Compared to him, the teachers in the audience and the head of the teaching department in the referee's seat were even more shocked, because they knew from the beginning that Ye Mingqiu really was a support. He had given his teammates the [Unbreakable] aura from the very beginning, which was an extremely powerful passive ability.

It was so powerful that Feng Xinglie and the others didn't even dare to think about being on the defensive!
Not only that, Ye Mingqiu also has two large-area crowd control abilities, a team damage buff, a team debuff, and he even deals damage. Xia Qingxue on the other side is also a level 1 support, yet she was instantly killed by a single crowd control skill, losing half her health! This is just outrageous!
What kind of overpowered support class is this?

Even a lord-level character wouldn't have this level of strength, right?
Could it be... a Hero-level weapon?

Or should we upgrade the hero-level weapon?
"Old Li, you said before that he was the student ranked last in your support department?" Teacher Wang from the warrior department asked with a strange expression.

"I don't know what's going on either," Old Li replied with a wry smile; he truly couldn't understand it.

As the effect of the killing intent wave ended, the Dragon Slayer Swordsman looked shocked. He looked at the vanished figure, then at the Earth Knight who was also forcibly controlled, and at Xia Qingxue who had lost half her health to a crowd control skill. He finally realized what an incredible monster the opponent's support was.

"Phew, you scared the hell out of me! After you unleashed your burst skill, let's see what other tricks you have up your sleeve!" The Dragon Slayer roared as he charged forward, giving Ye Mingqiu no chance whatsoever. He was terrified that this guy would pull out a blood energy sniper cannon from his storage space again. If he managed to kill Feng Xinglie with one shot and free Tang Ruobing, then they would be truly doomed!

"Just stall for time. Tang Ruobing can only control me for half a minute at most. Be careful of this guy!"

Feng Xinglie directed from the rear.

As the core of the team, Feng Xinglie had an incredibly ruthless eye for the situation. He could tell that a normal level 1 professional could never possess such powerful skills, let alone take down half of a level 1 support's health with a single control skill.

Therefore, there's only one answer: he's wearing a lot of unconditional equipment accessories, possibly silver or gold grade. In short, his base stats have been ridiculously boosted! He's much stronger than a normal level 1!

Unconditional Silver-grade Blood Energy Sniper Cannon, Unconditional Silver-grade Heavy Armor with Skills, multiple unconditional equipment pieces of Silver-grade, and even Gold-grade accessories.

Just how much money did this guy spend on in-game purchases?

How come he's richer than me?
When I was level 1, my equipment wasn't even half as good as his!
Wait a minute, if he's that rich, did he also pay for the basic passive skills? Did he pay for the passive skill levels? Did he pay for the special skills too? Could there be other pay-to-win weapons? Like the most expensive growth-type weapon?
The power of spending money is still too strong. The more Feng Xinglie thought about it, the more frightened he felt. At the same time, he felt a little unbelievable and hoped that the Dragon Slayer Swordsman could suppress him head-on and prove that he was overthinking it.

let's go!

Dragon Slayer!

If we take him down, we'll win!

"A frontal assault, huh? Instead of running away, you're actively approaching me?"

Ye Mingqiu smiled. If the Dragon Slayer Swordsman temporarily avoids the limelight and waits for an opportunity to strike, he would feel more troubled, since he needs to protect Tang Ruobing and dares not stray too far from her.

However, if the opponent attacks first, he can quickly eliminate the Dragon Slayer Swordsman and then directly attack the opponent's three members, Feng Xinglie, to end the battle as quickly as possible and win the victory. This would be the best outcome for him.

"Bluster? A support character whose skills are on cooldown, what way do you have to fight me? Are you planning to use your fists?"

The Dragon Slayer shouted sharply, but his vigilance remained undiminished. He directly aimed his Dragon Slayer sword energy at Tang Ruobing from a distance, while simultaneously reaching behind him with his right hand to pull out a small revolver from his storage space.

This is American-style Iaido!

If Ye Mingqiu, a support-type character, can pull out a sniper cannon and start firing, it's not hard to understand why he, a Dragon Slayer, would pull out a revolver, right?
"Yes, with these fists."

Ye Mingqiu's eyes were like torches as he strode quickly toward the Dragon Slayer Swordsman, his speed increasing as he unhesitatingly unleashed his Fury Pursuit upon him.

He was the one among the opposing team who posed the greatest threat to Tang Ruobing. Once he was eliminated, the rest of the battle could be a little easier.

Therefore, using a few more skills and consuming some status effects is well worth it.
