All-Heavens Game, the Strongest Player

Chapter 77: The first round of elimination ends Chu Xiu's "pig farming" plan!
In their rematch, Wu Shang, with the added advantage of over two hundred years of accumulated skill, was able to gain a slight edge.

However, winning is difficult. The key is that Chu Xiu's only skill with talent enhancement, "Star Absorption Technique," is ineffective against Wu Shang.

That powerful palm strike, intended to control the situation, could be blocked by the opponent's sword.

However, simply using the technique of absorbing energy from a distance cannot draw out the opponent's internal energy. Wu Shang's main internal energy cultivation technique is the top-tier metal-type martial art "Nine Yang Divine Skill," and he has integrated sword intent into his internal energy, creating something similar to "sword essence."

Perhaps it wouldn't be enough to withstand Zhu Wushi's max-level energy absorption technique.

But Chu Xiu was only at the first level, and he couldn't absorb it.

"I can't defeat you in a short time, but if we continue to fight, no matter how high your skill level is, your true energy will eventually run out. However, the four-dimensional attributes I rely on will not run out, so my chances of winning will be greater than yours!"

As Chu Xiu spoke, he stopped hitting.

The injured side also stopped.

"That's true, but physical strength can also tire. With my skill, I can fight for ten days and ten nights without a problem, let alone how long!"

It's hard to say who will win.

But if you really fight to the very end, someone else might snatch it up!
So the two of them stopped fighting without hesitation.

"Let's settle this in the final round!" Wushang said.

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu remained silent.

Final rounds?
forget it!
Now is the only time you still have a chance to beat yourself. Once your power increases and your skills break through the limit, the "Unbeatable Chu Xiu" rated by the game system will make a strong comeback!

“There’s something in your eyes!” Wushang said.

Chu Xiu was taken aback upon hearing this.

But she didn't say much. Instead, she turned around and slashed at the Beggars' Sect members three times with her sword. The three swords killed three people: Kang Min, Quan Guanqing, and Bai Shijing.

This instantly caused all the members of the Beggars' Sect to reveal expressions of anger.

Even Qiao Feng was no exception.

"Young lady, do you have a grudge against those three men?"

"Somewhat!" Wushang said, "When I was little, I couldn't sleep, so my dad would tell me stories to lull me to sleep. When I heard the part about 'Apricot Grove,' and when I heard about those three people, I was very unhappy. So I've always thought that if I ever met them, I would give each of them a sword!"

Qiao Feng: "???"

Chu Xiu: "..."

He was now finally certain that Wu Shang was not someone hired by Li Tiangang or the Shen family to ambush him.

Because they were too willful!

Even if she is highly skilled in martial arts, Qiao Feng will not be afraid. Moreover, if the two really fight, it is impossible to know who will win. Qiao Feng is the type who becomes stronger as the battle progresses.

In addition, there were the elders of the Beggars' Sect.

He was so strong that no other player dared to mess with him, but during the crucial "elimination round," he got into a fight with the Beggars' Sect because of his recklessness.

A group of elders, along with numerous disciples, and Qiao Feng from the early stages.

They were slaughtered so badly that blood flowed like a river.

Even Qiao Feng was injured, and Wu Shang also took several hits from the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was also wounded by swords and knives, and by the end, his injuries were comparable to those of Qiao Feng after the battle at Juxian Manor.

"Damn, crazy!"

Ye Lingxian watched from afar and felt that the woman was simply out of her mind.

Where are the serious players who fight to the death with NPCs?
Do you get equipment or something if you win?

Then, he glanced at Chu Xiu again, wanting to draw his sword, but in the end he didn't. Instead, he lay prone in the mud, quietly covered his face, and then pulled a piece of waterweed over his head.

Mind silently.

"You can't see me, you can't see me!"

He chickened out.

They'd fought before, and he was clearly no match for Wushang, while Chu Xiu could suppress Wushang. The Heavenly Games aren't rock-paper-scissors; there's no concept of mutual restraint. If he were to fight Chu Xiu, he'd definitely be doomed!
"Just wait! Starting from the second-tier world, the class template will no longer be a player's reliance, but a guarantee of their minimum performance level. Whoever can surpass the class template and go higher will have the last laugh!"

At this moment, the players in the arena were already in complete chaos.

Especially after Chu Xiu wiped out all the masters of Yipintang and fought against the Beggars' Sect without taking any damage, the players also let loose completely and tried their best to eliminate their opponents.

Apricot Grove has been transformed into a martial arts version of Black Forest.

Everyone became a gun-wielding hunter.

The killings were so brutal that rivers of blood flowed.

Murong Fu, however, stood by and watched, wanting to recruit those ordinary players with high martial arts skills, but he dared not interfere easily, because there were quite a few experts among the players.

They wanted to win over Wushang, but didn't want to offend the Beggars' Sect.

He wanted to betray the Beggars' Sect, but because he didn't fully understand the relationship between Wushang and Chu Xiu, he didn't dare to take action.

Hesitant and conflicted.

As for the person next to her, Wang Yuyan had already fainted—she had seen many players fighting, and one moment she saw the Nine Yang Divine Skill, but she couldn't figure out which school of martial arts it belonged to, and the next she saw Tai Chi, which she felt was profound and beyond her comprehension.

I saw the Nine Swords of Dugu, the Divine Illumination Scripture, and...

Ultimately, Wang Yuyan, overwhelmed by mental exertion, succumbed to the pressure and fell into a coma.

"Stop fighting! Can you please stop? What grudge do you have against each other? Why don't we sit down and talk it over?" Duan Yu said.

Only he was simple-minded and loved to meddle in other people's business.

Want to dissuade.

But clearly, it had no effect.

There's another reason why the players are so strong: if their numbers aren't reduced, they can't leave Xingzilin and will constantly face the threat of Chu Xiu, Wushang, and Ye Lingxian, these two semi-"big daddies".

The only option is to reduce the number of opponents as much as possible.

During the process, Chu Xiu also took the opportunity to strike and take down several players.

But I quickly lost interest.

Most players currently only have the basic "one-year" skill level, so the number of kills is too small. The internal energy brought from Blue Star is also protected by the system and cannot be absorbed.

You can drain him dry and ruin him, but you won't get anything for yourself.

The internal energy that can only be obtained within the instance and is specific to the current match is far too little.

"This can't go on. We need to plan carefully and set up a 'pig farm' to maximize profits!"

Finally, the system notified us: The number of players has dropped to 128, and this round of elimination is over!

Everyone disappeared in a rush, running outside.

"Um, I'm not qualified to learn the 'Divine Ghost Mystic Art'. Senior, do you have any other divine skills that you don't mind being passed down outside the sect that you could teach me?"

Kumārajīva caught up with Chu Xiu, who was walking slowly away, and asked with an expectant look on his face.

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu looked at him, nodded, and said, "I need a supervisor to oversee this 'pig farming' project. If you can do it well, I might as well teach you some powerful martial arts!"

"Raising pigs?"

"You'll understand when they start catching the piglets!"

"So, where do we go now?"

"Go to a secluded sect that few people know about, hmm, the Lingjiu Palace on Misty Peak of Tianshan! You can easily get a lot of manpower from there to 'catch piglets'!"

After saying this, he led Kumārajīva straight towards the Tianshan Mountains.

However, the two did not go far before they were caught up by a man covered in blood—none other than the man who had fought the natives to the death, and who, in many people's eyes, had some mental deficiencies.

"I've just had a breakthrough and my strength has improved a bit. Shall we spar again?"
