This is a cultivation game, but its operation is terrible.

Edward was indeed startled when he saw Jiang Liu, but he quickly calmed down, his eyes burning with the flames of revenge.

Last time, in the parkour event, he was defeated by Jiang Liu due to a lack of lightning magic, and was eliminated with resentment.

This time, wielding lightning magic, he will surely reclaim the honor and dignity he once lost!

"Jiang, I will prove to you who is the number one high school student cultivator in this city!"

Edward was full of fighting spirit. Facing the three swords and three attacks, he showed no fear. He quickly formed a hand seal, and a dazzling bolt of lightning burst out from his body.

"Thunder Shield!"

High-grade defensive lightning magic!

Dazzling lightning crackled across his body, condensing into a shield of thunder and lightning. Under the cover of the lightning, Edward shone like a Saiyan!

The Three Spirit Swords Formation sent three swords flying across the sky, striking Edward's Thunder Spirit Shield, creating a dazzling burst of sparks like metal colliding.

"That's not all!"

Edward didn't take the Three Spirit Sword Formation seriously at all. He was using a high-grade lightning-type magic shield, whose defensive capabilities were greatly enhanced by the lightning spirit root. How could any trashy spell break through it?

He laughed. This is a noble lightning spirit root!

Without even glancing at the Three Spirit Sword Formation, he raised the Thunder Spirit Shield and fixed his gaze directly on Jiang Liu. He formed a hand seal, raised his hand and pointed, letting out a loud shout with an excited expression.

"Thunder God and Lightning Goddess, quickly unleash your divine powers! Raging divine thunder! Heed my command!"

"Lightning Bolt!"

As he chanted, a bolt of lightning, as thick as an arm and several meters long, shot out from his fingertips, flashing across ten meters before heading straight for the river!

"What nonsense!"

Jiang Liu saw a small lightning snake swaying and shooting towards him, raised his Water-Splitting Sword, and casually slashed at it.

With a casual flick of his water-elemental sword energy, he shattered the lightning spell. Ninety percent of the remaining sword energy slashed across ten meters without hesitation, striking Edward's lightning shield.

The Thunder Spirit Shield shattered instantly!

Edward: "??????"

A single sword aura, severing my lightning magic, severing my lightning shield?!

"How is that possible!"

Edward stared wide-eyed at Jiang Liu, his face filled with disbelief, unable to accept this reality.

That's a high-grade spell, a high-grade magic shield!

It shattered just like that, shattering without a sound!

No, not possible!

What magical artifact could possibly break two high-grade spells in a row?

Could it be that he's using a mystical weapon?

Yes, it must be a mystical weapon!

Only a mystical weapon could possess such power!

"You actually smuggled mystical artifacts from the area ahead!"

Edward pointed at Jiang Liu and exclaimed in surprise, "There is no way to obtain Xuan artifacts in the Fourth District. He must have smuggled them in!"

Smuggling magical artifacts is illegal. I'm going to report the teacher and call the police!

Jiang Liu: "......"

Jiang Liu looked at Edward speechlessly, thinking to himself, "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that game equipment could be smuggled."

Who's so arrogant, using those mysterious weapons from the front area? Aren't they afraid of getting their account banned?

Anyway, he didn't dare.

"This is called a sword spirit root. You can't afford to get it, can you?"

Jiang Liu brandished the Water-Splitting Sword in his hand, shook his head, and said, "If you don't even have a sword spirit root, don't bother jumping around in front of the event boss. Bye-bye."

Having lost the Thunder Spirit Shield, Edward was forced to jump around by the Three Spirit Sword Formation, his expression both anxious and furious.

Sword Spirit Root?

The Third Middle School actually gave him a sword spirit root!

Damn it, how come No. 3 Middle School is so rich!

If he didn't have a sword spirit root... I could definitely kill him!

"Stop! Stop!"

Seeing his injuries worsening, Edward shouted in a panic, "Let's keep to ourselves! Just pretend we never met, okay?!"

If he gets eliminated twice at the very beginning of the event, he'll be too ashamed to show his face at school!

"Give me some face!"

"Didn't you hear me?! Say something!"

"omg!"

"I will come back again!"

The Three Spirit Sword Formation pierced through Edward's ethereal body in succession, and Edward, in grief and anger, was eliminated once again.

He didn't even see the event boss!

He just wanted to participate in the event, what did he do wrong!

"Well, the mistake was that you're from No. 1 Middle School."

Jiang Liu watched Edward's figure disappear and sighed softly.

I had no intention of harming anyone, but I was powerless to do so.

Isn't it normal to undermine competitors?

Jiang Liu silently turned off the recording, putting the little incident out of his mind, and casually opened the mini-map.

He was still thinking about how to find the event boss, but when he opened the minimap, he was stunned.

In the center of the minimap, there is a blood-red skull, with the word "boss" marked below it.

Well, I don't even need to look for it, the coordinates are given right away. This event is so convenient.

Jiang Liu glanced at the boss's location, then spread his wings and flew into the sky, heading towards the boss's location.

He landed at the edge of the event map, and the further he flew into the map, the more terrifying the number of players became.

Looking down from the vantage point, tens of thousands of players formed torrents, heading towards the depths of the back mountain.

Even in the sky, you can still see dozens or even hundreds of players with wings all around.

The back mountain of Lingyun Sect was very large, and it took him several minutes to fly to reach the boss's coordinates.

Looking down from the sky, one could vaguely see a dark, shadowy figure being besieged by countless colorful players. The figures, characters, and spells were all layered on top of each other, making Jiang Liu's scalp tingle.

It's such a mess! It's such a mess!

The boss and millions of players are intertwined and overlapping, making it impossible to distinguish friend from foe.

Especially since this is a map with an area-of-effect attack mode, whether a player's spell can damage the boss is another matter, but it will definitely damage other players.

Despite being shrouded in darkness and fighting against a million opponents, Gui Miechen showed no signs of weakness. His spells were powerful and unrestrained, and he could wipe out all the players within a radius of more than ten square meters with a single move.

"This is terrible, this is really not going to cost cultivation points anymore?"

Jiang Liu watched for a few seconds from a height of several dozen meters, revealing a look of lingering fear. A demonic cultivator in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage went on a killing spree, and nothing could be cleared out in one move.

Who can afford to offend them?

He's someone you can't afford to offend!

He's still a major and minor realm away from the tenth level of Qi Refining and the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, let alone other players.

Knowing full well they were no match, why would they still go and give away free kills? Are the rewards for this event really that tempting?

Jiang Liu's heart stirred, and he glanced at the chaotic battleground below a few more times.

Ok?

What about that female cultivator named Fu Qiluo?

Why can't I see her?

Could it be that he's already died?

Chapter 65 Damage Ranking First: Jiang Liu

As Jiang Liu descended from the sky, just as he was about to join the fray to beat up the boss, a notification popped up in front of him.

[You have entered the designated area. Do you wish to begin the cutscene?]

【Yes. 】

The moment I clicked "yes," my gaze shifted, and I was suddenly in a God's-eye view.

From his omniscient perspective, Gui Miechen, shrouded in demonic energy, was confronting the female cultivator Fu Qiluo, who was several meters away.

Fu Qiluo stood rooted to the spot, staring at her former junior brother with eyes filled with unfamiliarity and disgust. She opened her red lips and shouted, "Gui Miechen, you have slaughtered mortals, lost your humanity, and fallen into the demonic path, damaging the reputation of the Divine Might Sect. For the sake of our past acquaintance, I will give you one chance. Surrender immediately and come back with me to be punished!"

Upon hearing Fu Qiluo's words, Gui Miechen's lips curled into a disdainful smile: "Senior Sister Qiluo, what is humanity, what is the demonic path? I, as a cultivator, am already defying fate, it's just that my methods are a little too brutal."

Seeing that Gui Miechen showed no remorse and that his words were filled with disregard for life, Fu Qiluo was furious and said, "Brutal? Those are hundreds of lives! Aren't you afraid of divine retribution?!"

Gui Miechen couldn't help but burst into laughter, his laughter filled with sarcasm: "Hahahaha, a mere few hundred mortal lives were enough to propel me from the peak of Qi Refining to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage! The demonic path is simply amazing! With such a breakthrough speed, what does it matter if I suffer divine retribution!"

Fu Qiluo, looking disappointed, drew her magic sword, pointing the tip at Gui Miechen: "Unrepentant to the death! Today, Fu Qiluo of the Divine Might Sect will act on behalf of Heaven, slay all demons, and rid the people of this scourge!"

"Senior sister, I'm not the same person I used to be!"

After the conversation ended, Gui Miechen and Fu Qiluo began to fight, with demonic shadows and chilling sword energy flying all around.

After three rounds, the battle ended. Fu Qiluo was defeated in one move and was seriously injured by Gui Miechen's palm strike, collapsing to the ground and spitting blood.

Jiang Liu: "......"
