Chapter 837 -837 Preparing for the World Championship

The Guardian Angel snapped back to reality and said, “Impossible, it must be luck. Let’s go again.”

Li Yao chuckled and replied, “Nothing is impossible. It will be the same even if we go a few more times.”

“No way, I have to try. Get ready, I’m attacking now.” As the Guardian Angel spoke, they raised their hand, and a holy radiance descended from the sky—Divine Punishment.

However, as he unleashed the skill, Li Yao simply sidestepped, and the invincible moment made the light of Divine Punishment fall directly on him but caused no damage whatsoever.

Li Yao shook his head slightly, took a step forward to close in on the Guardian Angel, who this time didn’t even unleash their skill, but directly tried to strike Li Yao’s head with their shield.

But Li Yao sidestepped again, and his warhammer slammed down on the Guardian Angel, breaking their move once more.

Then another hammer blow followed, and the Guardian Angel fell into a state of asphyxiation again.

“Damn it, are you a prophet or something?” The Guardian Angel was utterly confused, their health down to a mere sliver.

“It’s not prophecy, just anticipation,” said Li Yao. “Let’s stop here. It would be the same however many times we tried.”

The audience felt this the most deeply. They had slowed down the footage from earlier and found indeed that the Guardian Angel’s actions seemed to be under Li Yao’s command, as if he had prepared the countermeasures in advance.

Li Yao did not interrupt them and waited a long while before speaking, “When I entered the Trial Ground, I found you all slacking off. During combat, you were all laughing and joking. What’s the use of dueling like that?”

A member said softly, “The bosses are really strong. Our main team got third place in the China region without the boss. If the boss had fought, we would definitely have won first. Plus, three of our teams made it to the top ten thousand and qualified for the world championship. And more than thirty individual players advanced. Other guilds would be happy to have one or two.”

“You’re arrogant without having won a single first place. We haven’t even become an official team yet and don’t have any noteworthy achievements, yet there’s already such complacency. Being kings in China means what on the world stage? How high has China placed in the recent world championships? Besides, Spark Team hasn’t even dominated China yet. If that’s the case, Spark Team might as well disband.”

Following Li Yao’s words, everyone fell silent.

“With your skills, you can’t even take a drop of my blood. Those who are unsatisfied are welcome to try,” Li Yao surveyed the crowd. “If you can’t do even this much, don’t even mention competing with players from other strong guilds in the world—the alien players would simply crush you.”

Before this, they might have wanted to give it a try because of the level 30 character enhancement and their achievements, but seeing how Li Yao handled the Guardian Angel, they felt a bit hopeless.

Seeing no one spoke, Li Yao continued, “There’s no limit to skill. You think knowing how to counter makes you a master? What’s more, you haven’t even fully mastered countering. Even if you’re one step ahead, do you think your opponents won’t be prepared for that? Can you break my moves?”

Li Yao gave the people in the training ground a good lecture, and the atmosphere improved a lot. The training became much more serious.

Li Yao, Sister Li, Qin Feng Yi, and the Unparalleled Enchantress came to the council hall.

“Let’s talk about the situation of the past few days,” said Li Yao as he took the seat of honor.

The Unparalleled Enchantress smiled and said, “Before we talk about the situation, I want to say that what the Chairman did just now was excellent. Otherwise, Spark Team would have collapsed before it was even fully established.”

“This attitude is not good. How about I establish a ‘Manners Hall’ to handle such matters?” suggested Qin Feng Yi.

Li Yao glanced at Sister Li and said, “What does Sister Li think?”

“This is also my suggestion; it was my oversight,” Sister Li said apologetically.

Feng Yi said, “The main thing is that Sister Li is too busy, having to deal with too many things.”

Li Yao waved his hand and said, “I know, and since I’ve been a hands-off manager, I naturally understand everyone’s hard work. Our guild is just starting, and many systems are not perfected. It’s fine as long as we identify and solve problems. I’m not here to pinpoint blame on anyone.”

Sister Li nodded and said, “Then let me talk about the main things recently. The best part is that since our guild’s envoy has been withdrawn, the Dark Camp won’t reclaim this territory. After the recent hustle, our guild’s base has finally become a small town. After reaching level four, the guild can recruit another twenty thousand players, and because of the affiliated guilds, player resources aren’t a concern. The Vampire Nest has also been completed, and once the guild reaches level four, it can start producing.”

Li Yao’s spirit perked up; the guild’s upgrade wasn’t unexpected, but the completion of the Vampire’s Nest meant that the guild had gained a new NPC troops breed.

“That’s great news. Once the guild buildings are also upgraded, our base’s defensive power will be bolstered,” Li Yao mused. “However, we should also take care of the guild members’ welfare housing. The Ancient Gods are too troublesome, only allowing to stay in hotels, and not able to buy houses. Players are like wanderers; having a house would increase the member’s sense of belonging.”

“I’m aware of that, and because of you, we’re really not short on money. Moreover, the profits from the guild’s shops are more than enough to cover expenses,” Sister Li said, satisfied with this arrangement as the ample funds gave Starfire plenty of confidence, enabling them to do anything with ease. In such circumstances, the members were also full of enthusiasm, “Oh right, the reward of ten thousand Gold Coins was directly placed in the guild’s warehouse by Angel.”

Li Yao forced a smile: “That’s my personal Gold Coins.”

“There was no way around it; she refused to accept it no matter what, saying she wouldn’t have been able to kill the boss without you. As soon as I gave it to her, she turned around and put it in the guild’s warehouse,” Sister Li explained helplessly.

Li Yao was a bit speechless; ten thousand Gold Coins converted into credit points was also a considerable sum, and definitely enough to buy whatever one wanted in the game.

“I’ve already calculated her contribution, which counts towards her points accumulation. We’ll compensate her gradually,” Sister Li said.

“That’s fine, just handle it as you see fit,” Li Yao said. “Now, let’s talk about the competition.”

“There’s not much to say, really. Prosperous Era and Warhammer are indeed very strong, and their lineup counters ours significantly, resulting in two consecutive losses to them; we only took third place in the China region,” Sister Li explained.

“It’s understandable for Warhammer to be considered number one or two, but Prosperous Era shouldn’t be that strong,” Li Yao furrowed his brows.

“They’ve poached some top players,” Feng Yi said.

Li Yao nodded in understanding, no wonder.

“I gave up on the individual competition; I was too busy. Enchantress took fifth in the China region, Pupil was unlucky and only got fifteenth, Fruit was thirty-third, and Mu Zi came in eighty-ninth; everyone else was outside of the top hundred,” Sister Li continued.

“It’s such a pity that the guild leader was delayed by other matters; it would have been a great opportunity to promote the guild,” Unparalleled Enchantress said regretfully.

Li Yao waved his hand and said, “It’s nothing. I can still participate in the finals, and the world championship is what really counts. These next few days, let’s focus on the competition, and then I’ll gather the materials to make a truly Unparalleled bow.”

The other few people were immediately shaken, all thinking of the blueprint for the Thousand Mechanisms Bow…
