To be honest, Jiang Ye had wanted to kill the Mask Master a long ti ago.
But this ti, he hadn’t fully decided whether to use that flawed version of the Ti-Limited Instant Kill item card.
After all, that card ca from Chubby Guy.
And Chubby Guy was full of secrets, hiding too deeply.
Jiang Ye didn’t dare to trust him completely.
In fact, the more he thought about it, the more he suspected...
Could that flawed Ti-Limited Instant Kill card be so kind of forgery created by Chubby Guy using certain thods?
It looked like it had the effect of a Ti-Limited Instant Kill, but in reality, it might just be a fake disguise item ant to deceive?
After all, Jiang Ye wasn’t very familiar with card-type items.
What if there really was a card item that a Card Grandmaster could actively edit the effects of, making it undetectable?
When Jiang Ye fabricated the idea of the Ti-Limited Instant Kill item, he had only told Zhou Yuling.
But among those big shots, all kinds of tricks were common, and information naturally spread quickly.
Maybe the Card Grandmaster learned about the fabricated Ti-Limited Instant Kill item from Zhou Yuling or so administrator?
It was even possible that he doubted the authenticity of such an item and deliberately forged it as a card item to test whether Administrator 4444 really possessed it.
Moreover, even if that Ti-Limited Instant Kill card was genuine, the pitfalls of a flawed item couldn’t be ignored.
Jiang Ye actually wanted to find soone else to test that item.
So that if he used it recklessly and failed to turn the Mask Master into a clone, he wouldn’t offend him...
But if he really wanted to find soone to test it, that would waste a chance to use the Ti-Limited Instant Kill.
For a mont, he wasn’t sure what to do.
When Zhang Minghan’s clone entered the Mask Master’s little shop, he didn’t plan to act imdiately but wanted to probe a bit first.
However, what surprised him was—
This ti entering the Mask Master’s shop, the owner was not in a hidden state.
Instead, he was standing inside the shop in the form of a bald middle-aged man.
And he was directly talking to a custor.
The two had gentle expressions and seed to be chatting quite happily?
Seeing this scene, Jiang Ye’s heart skipped a beat.
Because...
In this case, the Mask Master not wearing the Zhang Minghan version of the mimic mask wasn’t his clone.
Later, even if he entered the studio again to trade, the master might not wear the Zhang Minghan version of the mimic mask again.
If Jiang Ye deliberately reminded him, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
Damn it...
It seed this wasn’t the ti to kill the Mask Master.
Just as he was thinking this, the Mask Master looked over at him.
The originally gentle expression instantly changed.
It was as if a creditor saw a deadbeat who owed him five million yuan and wouldn’t pay...
Of course, the custor talking to him also looked toward Jiang Ye.
But what surprised Jiang Ye was—
That custor looked at him as if he had seen a ghost.
He even blurted out:
“Zhang Minghan?! How do you have the qualification to enter the Mask Master’s shop??”
What?
An acquaintance?
But Jiang Ye had synchronized with Zhang Minghan’s mories and didn’t rember this person.
He could feel that this person’s tone was unfriendly toward him.
So, raising an eyebrow, he replied:
“Not only do I have entry qualifications, I’m also a VIP custor. May I ask who you are?”
The custor was a man in his early thirties. When he heard “VIP custor,” his eyes widened again as he scrutinized Jiang Ye from top to bottom, full of disbelief.
“You? A VIP? Well, it’s true you don’t know .”
“But look at this, then you’ll know how I know you :)”
Saying this, the man seed to be searching for sothing in his spatial equipnt.
Soon, he took out a small droplet-shaped gadget.
With two fingers pinching it, the droplet burst, turning into water mist.
The mist quickly condensed into a water screen, and on that screen was a clear image—
Zhang Minghan, naked, bruised and battered, looking utterly miserable.
Blood and tears sared all over his face, but he didn’t dare to wipe them.
Instead, he was almost crawling on the ground, repeatedly slapping his own face with a “piapiapia” sound.
While slapping, he kept pleading with the big shot for rcy, begging to be spared...
Then, the big shot kicked him away with one foot.
Jiang Ye had so impression of this scene.
It should have been when Zhang Minghan was very weak in the early days.
Actually, he hadn’t done anything wrong, just casually observing a sowhat powerful player.
But that guy took a dislike to him and wanted to kill him on the spot.
Yes, no grievances, just a pure dislike and deliberately provoking trouble.
Zhang Minghan was stunned but knew he was no match, so he could only admit defeat and beg for rcy.
That guy seed to like how weak and pitiful Zhang Minghan looked.
So he made Zhang Minghan strip naked and kneel, begging for rcy while slapping himself.
This was quite humiliating, especially since there were quite a few bystanders at the ti.
But Zhang Minghan had no choice if he wanted to survive.
Fortunately, his pathetic begging pleased the provocateur.
In the end, he was only kicked away, and the provocation was over...
Actually, scenes like this appeared quite often in Zhang Minghan’s mories.
And this wasn’t even the most humiliating one.
But after Zhang Minghan beca stronger, he avenged all those who could be avenged.
Many enemies died before he could get to them...
The scene this custor showed was from quite a long ti ago.
Unexpectedly, so of those bystanders were still alive now.
They even recorded the video back then...
Looking at the video now, Jiang Ye felt a little uncomfortable.
But it wasn’t a big problem.
After all, that scene was not his own experience.
He wasn’t Zhang Minghan himself.
Still, to avoid suspicion, he deliberately held his breath, flushed his face red.
He even widened his eyes fiercely, the blood vessels in his eyes full of red veins, making it look like he was extrely humiliated.
Just then, the Mask Master looked at him and exclaid:
“Holy crap? That’s you?!”
After all, he had a very good impression of Zhang Minghan and couldn’t imagine he had such a pathetic past...
Jiang Ye felt like he was stabbed and, in a fit of sha and anger, shouted:
“That’s not ! Soone’s impersonating ! This video is definitely fake!”
His outburst naturally pleased the custor.
The man sneered contemptuously and sarcastically said:
“A loser is a loser, huh~”
Jiang Ye imdiately felt like soone stabbed him in the spine and flew into a rage:
“What did you say? Who are you calling a loser!”
Then he turned to the Mask Master and asked:
“Shop owner, is there a rule in our store that custors aren’t allowed to fight each other?!”
Before the Mask Master could reply, the custor sneered disdainfully:
“Heh, you’re just a useless pretty boy, how dare you fight ?”
“Don’t think no one knows how you got to where you are! I don’t even want to dirty my hands killing you!”
Whoa!
Jiang Ye was furious, his face red and his neck thick, as if he was about to break the store rules and fight right then and there.
However, the Mask Master stopped him.
While holding him back and persuading him, he subtly glanced out of Jiang Ye’s field of vision and gave the custor a look.
The custor was being stared down by Jiang Ye and naturally didn’t want to argue with the Mask Master’s silent warning.
Still, he openly stepped forward and continued to look at Jiang Ye with disdain:
“Even if you are a VIP custor, this shop is a place for business. You’re not allowed to fight with custors.”
“But if you really dare to fight , I’m willing to grant you that.”
Saying this, the custor flipped his hand, and a...
Rattle?
He held the rattle’s handle and casually shook it twice. The rattle emitted a low, deep drumbeat.
Accompanying the rhythm, he raised an eyebrow and said arrogantly:
“This is the Extre Battle Arena Drum I got from Master Ji Zhan.”
“Though it looks like a rattle, if both you and I each hold one of the two drumstrings on this rattle and pull them off together, the drum surface will transform into a special arena space.”
“You and I can then have a fair fight.”
He slowed the shaking, and the drumbeat slowed down.
His voice beca lighter, dripping with mockery:
“But I think...”
“A loser like you, who would give up dignity just to survive...”
“Really wouldn’t dare to fight , right?”
Then he said to the Mask Master:
“Shop owner, don’t bother stopping him. I’m sure he wouldn’t dare fight for real!”
The Mask Master seed to be convinced, thinking Zhang Minghan was indeed too weak to do anything reckless.
So he really let go.
But Jiang Ye, no longer restrained, didn’t actually make a move.
He suddenly had a realization, his gaze shifting between the custor and the Mask Master.
Finally, he angrily said, “I guess you two must be working together to trap ?”
“Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that the custor in the store when I ca in held my dirty secret?”
“Could it be that you, shop owner, are willing to do anything to get back the Nomadic rchant Mask?”
“If I’m not mistaken...”
“If I agree to the fight later, you two will team up and make bet the Nomadic rchant Mask, right?!”
At this mont, although he appeared calm, his face was still flushed, unable to hide his anger.
His gaze at the custor still carried murderous intent, as if he wanted to kill the guy holding his dirty secrets.
The custor’s expression didn’t change, but the drumbeat rhythm in his hand slightly faltered.
He snorted at Jiang Ye:
“Bet? Heh, now that you ntion it, I actually want to bet with you.”
“Just bet your Nomadic rchant Mask. If you don’t dare, wouldn’t that prove you’re just a loser who rose up by riding on won?”
“Heh heh! What’s that called? Giving you a chance, and you’re useless!”
“You just said the video is fake, right?”
“That’s fine. At worst, I’ll make it public so all the apartnt players can judge whether this video is real or not!”
“Heh! Heh! Fine!” Jiang Ye gritted his teeth, looking like he was laughing in anger.
He glared at the custor again and said word by word:
“Are you waiting here?”
“You want to bet the Nomadic rchant Mask, and your bet is just this damn dirty secret video, right?”
The custor raised an eyebrow: “Whoa, that’s pretty clever. No wonder a loser like you could survive until now.”
“Heh! Loser?” Jiang Ye sneered coldly again.
In this state, obviously, he was completely provoked by anger.
So much so that he looked imposing even while furious.
“Isn’t it just a fair fight? Do you really think I don’t dare?”
“Is it just the Nomadic rchant Mask? I dare bet it, but do you really want it?”
“I don’t care if you dislike or you just want to do a favor for the Mask Master alone...”
“But you crossed , and that will definitely be the biggest mistake of your life!”
“Hahaha!” The man in his early thirties laughed out loud.
His contemptuous gaze toward Jiang Ye grew even stronger:
“I see you’re no kid anymore. You’ve experienced the harshness of reality and the beatings from the strong. So why are you still so naive?”
“This blazing, chuunibyou soul of yours? Shouldn’t you be shouting—Thirty years on the east side of the river, thirty years on the west, don’t underestimate a poor youth?”
“Thirty years? No. Three minutes.” Jiang Ye seed to suppress his anger and completely calm down.
He looked more imposing, like a cold-faced king of hell.
“In three minutes, you’ll regret it.”
“No. In three minutes, you’ll perish.”
“Hahaha...” The young custor laughed again.
But this ti, he didn’t say much, just confird smoothly:
“So, you’re saying you agree to the fight?”
Jiang Ye raised an eyebrow: “Agreed. But I want to change the bet a bit.”
The Mask Master stood behind Jiang Ye, his eyes rolling slightly.
The custor raised an eyebrow: “You don’t want to bet the Nomadic rchant Mask? Well, other than that mask, I doubt you have anything else I want.”
Jiang Ye suddenly smiled: “The Nomadic rchant Mask can be my bet.”
“But your bet, I don’t value.”
“Just a piece of dirty secret video. I’m not so idol; why should I care about my face?”
“Besides, any random mimic mask can change appearances. That dirty secret’s value is definitely far less than the Nomadic rchant Mask.”
That made sense.
The young custor seed fully confident in his strength, so he said indifferently: “Then what do you want to add to the bet?”
Jiang Ye shook his head: “No. No need for you to add anything.”
Then he turned to look at the Mask Master.
His gaze was complicated, lips curled with disdain, and he sneered:
“Don’t think I don’t know that this provocation and fight are closely related to you.”
“Since you insist on forcing , then letting you join the ga and adding a bet for our fight shouldn’t be too much, right?”
The Mask Master frowned: “Bets for the Extre Battle Arena can only be agreed upon by both combatants. Even if I wanted to add sothing, I can’t.”
Jiang Ye raised an indifferent eyebrow: “Then just use other items to restrict it.”
The Mask Master hesitated. In truth, he was a little fearful inside.
Because this Zhang Minghan was acting a bit strange.
Since he already saw this as provocation, why agree?
Why even specially let him add a bet?
This attitude made it seem like he was very confident about this fight.
But the Mask Master could clearly see Zhang Minghan’s data panel.
His strength was obviously not outstanding.
Even if he had so powerful items...
The Extre Battle Arena was different from a normal arena; it tested the bare strength of the two combatants.
That ant no items could be used during the fight.
With his data panel, where did his confidence co from?
After hesitating, the Mask Master said in a deep voice:
“Tell first, what kind of bet do you want to add?”
