Chapter 792: Thinking Too Much

Translator: Nomyummi Editor: Nomyummi

Faking carelessness and losing health before suddenly pulling himself together to defeat his opponent in one go. If one gave it more thought, this kind of thing fit with Li Rui’s personality. This must have been deliberate.

That’s what Li Rui’s panions believed. They would never have thought that the prideful Li Rui they usually knew, the Li Rui that gave little care for his opponents, would be nervous to the point that his mind had turned blank. He didn’t deliberately lose his health, he didn’t even have time to think about it. After the countdown from three, two, and one for the match, he was carried away.

Li Rui’s panions pletely misunderstood him, so none of them were worried about him. Instead, they patiently waited for Li Rui to show his might. In the match, Soft Mist’s wave of attacks came again.

This time, Li Rui wasn’t lost in thought, he hastily made his response. However, his fingers were frozen, and refused to listen to his mand. This situation looked terrible, if he didn’t do anything, then he would suffer a chain of attacks from Tang Rou. If they were evenly matched, then both sides would repeatedly be exchanging their skills to test each other. Until now, Li Rui could make responses, but they weren’t good. As a result, he fought in a strained manner.

"Is he still pretending?" Li Rui’s panions discussed as they messaged each other.

"He’s pretty good at faking."

"Hehe, exactly, as if he really is struggling.""When he breaks out later, the opponent will definitely be mind-blown!"

"Too bad we can’t see his opponent’s expression!"

"Yeah, what a pity. But Li Rui is really despicable."

"Of course, too despicable! He’s evil from heaven to hell!"

The two friends talked back and forth, while while watching Li Rui "fake" his flustered posure.

"It’s about time for him to make his move!" Some replied. "Mhm, about time."

"Hehe." The two sent the drooling emoji to each other. But after numerous movements, Demon Fighter lost another chunk of health.

"He’s still not making his move, he can really hold it in!"

"He must be planning to make a plete and grand eback! He really has the guts!"

"Yeah, he’s too confident, tsk tsk!"

The two sighed repeatedly, and continued to watch Demon Fighter’s health go down. "His health bar has turned red, he will definitely be making his move. He even waited for his health bar to go red, how ruthless." Someone said.

"Indeed, I can’t help but to feel worried for him." Another said.

Half a minute later.

"Say, perhaps we should really be worried for him."

"What’s up with him? Something’s not right!!"

After Demon Fighter’s health bar turned red, they still failed to see Li Rui break out. All they saw, was him struggling and the health bar of Demon Fighter continue to fall. The two no longer continued to watch the match. They turned their head to see Li Rui. Li Rui’s face was a bit pale. Even though the temperature at the end of August was still a little hot, the workshop’s strong air conditioner continued to operate, so the workshop was chilly. But Li Rui’s head was covered with thin beads of sweat. The wind was cool, so was his sweat. Finally, the word "Glory" shone on the screen. Li Rui stared dumbly with a paralysed face. Everyone gazed at one another, speechless.

It’s alright to lose! But what happened just then? He lost in such an unsightly manner! Was there any difference between him and those experts online that were bullied?

The people from Excellent Era were in shock. But the audience had no idea that Demon Fighter was a hidden pro. For them, this match was no different from the previous days they had crowded around to see. Before Soft Mist, all the players were abused like this. It seemed like this Demon Fighter was pretty good! He managed to hang on for so long. Perhaps, his future might be promising with more practice?

A rough start!

Chen Yehui sighed. But it wasn’t him who had lost, so his mood wasn’t too bad. Instead of going up to give fort, his eyes gazed at Li Rui disdainfully. That’s what you get for pretending!

"Do I need to switch players?" Soft Mist asked from the Arena room.

According to the standard petition rules, three people would need to e forth for individual matches. One person for each match. Soft Mist would need to switch with another player after one match, but the people who challenged her might not be in a team, so they didn’t need to follow the standard petition rules. Tang Rou would be facing the challengers by herself. Only fighting one match wouldn’t be enough for her. So even though Chen Guo said that they would be fighting according to the petition rules, she still asked.

In the Excellent Era workshop, Li Rui suddenly jumped up and rushed before Qiu Fei with impatience. "Lend me your account."

"Mm?" Qiu Fei was puzzled, he was already logged into the game, so he could watch the match! When Liu Rui suddenly ran over for his account, Qiu Fei didn't understand what he meant. On the contrary, Chen Yehui used to be in the training camp and currently managed the guild, so he was someone who had connections in both the online circle and professional circle. As a result, it was easy to guess what Li Rui was thinking.

This guy must have wanted to gain publicity through a match that drew a lot of attention. Who would have thought that he would lose in such an unsightly manner. But he refused to give up and still wanted to grab onto this opportunity. It wouldn’t have been enough if he used the same account to win back something he lost. Luckily he was online, so no one would know who was behind Demon Fighter. This guy just wanted to switch characters and win, so he can speak about this victory as a pretense.

"Lend it to me to try again." Li Rui asked Qiu Fei without explanation.

It was unknown if Qiu Fei thought about it. He only glanced at Li Rui again. Qiu Fei didn’t hand Li Rui his account, but he got up to give him his seat.

"Thank you." Li Rui said and sat down hurriedly, while he shouted at Chen Yehui that he would "Try another round". He didn’t care about Chen Yehui’s respond as he had already switched to Qiu Fei’s character and rushed into the arena. "No need to change. e!" A text bubble popped above his character’s head.

"Didn’t they say they would follow the petition rules?" Chen Guo found it hard to understand.

"It doesn’t matter." Tang Rou said.

"You must be more than happy to fight. Of course it doesn’t matter." Chen Guo said helplessly.

Tang Rou smiled and entered the match without minding at all. "Don’t be careless with the previous guy, he was actually quite good. He just performed badly." Ye Xiu said.

"Oh? Is that so?" Chen Guo wasn’t able to tell at all.

"Mm, he showed a glimmer of it, but he just played badly." Ye Xiu said.

"Why so?" Chen Guo asked.

"Within our circle, this type of circumstance is called performing poorly." Ye Xiu said.

"..." Chen Guo was speechless. "Performing poorly" could be used to explain all sorts of things. All reasons could be summed up with "performing poorly
