MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

Chapter 337: Chapter 337: Hacked (Vote needed)
You could say that the arena had been open for twenty-four hours now.

Many people wanted to see Li Yao, or see him make a fool of himself, but Li Yao seemed to have disappeared, there was no trace of him.

The Starfire Guild was making a big commotion, popping up with so many experts all of a sudden that it set the previously relaxed atmosphere on edge again.

Especially the guilds that bore a grudge against the Starfire Guild, they absolutely didn’t want Starfire to grow stronger.

However, some things didn’t develop as they wished. The experts from the Starfire Guild once again disrupted their calm.

Some top-tier guilds even knew the other identity of Unparalleled. Such a legendary figure was attracted to Starfire, posing a significant threat to them.

Soon, as analysts calculated the potential profit of the Arena, all the guilds dove in. Not to mention those showing off in the global channel, even each guild had lucky players who could get excellent rewards.

Such a place, offering a chance to level up quickly and safely, no one wanted to miss.

If the Starfire Guild had just been established without an analyst and couldn’t come to this conclusion, that would be understandable.

But to their knowledge, Starfire was one of the first guilds to throw all its resources in, with all the elders and elites promoting it for the guild, highlighting the importance of this Arena.

Still, in such circumstances, Li Yao didn’t appear, and it led to speculation.

Two scenarios were possible, either Li Yao was held back by a mission, unable to join, or he had something going on in real life, unable to join.

But whichever it was, they were happy to see it.

Many guilds didn’t want a real fight with Starfire, after all, the bounty from the three major guild heads was still fresh in their minds. Because of that incident, the three major guilds lost face.

Before they found a way to restrain Li Yao, they basically wouldn’t provoke him. But that didn’t stop them from making small moves, stirring up some drama. Many guilds were happy to see this happening.

So they started disparaging Li Yao in the forum.

Did Prairie Fire exhaust his skills? Did Prairie Fire see the Sand Dragon King’s power and dare not fight? Was Li Yao just a paper tiger not willing to fight strong players now that his level was high? Was Prairie Fire pretending to be sick in real life, giving himself an excuse to avoid competing, etc.? They provided seemingly plausible explanations for each speculation.

Some went as far as claiming to be Li Yao’s neighbor, personally witnessing him pretending to be sick while actually partying with girls at his mansion.

Their sole purpose was to muddy the water, tarnish Li Yao’s reputation, and subtly reduce his influence.

Li Yao casually clicked on a few posts then closed the forum, patting Tonton’s head and said, “They are merely clowns trying to attract attention, no point paying heed to them.”

“Humph, it’s just that they pissed me off. They make baseless claims, they have no shame.” Dumb-like Tonton was still upset.

“These small tricks won’t amount to anything much. Now that I’m here, their rumors will be naturally invalidated. Moreover, I also need to thank them.” Li Yao said with a laugh.

“Why?” Dumb-like Tonton asked curiously.

Sister Li responded, “If the guild leader were really as they said, or simply couldn’t make it to the Arena, their purpose would be achieved, diminishing the guild leader’s reputation. But now that the guild leader is back, their rumors serve as a hype, keeping the guild leader in the public eye, increasing his exposure and popularity. Isn’t that helpful to us?”

“So that’s how it is, I understand now.” Dumb-like Tonton nodded in seeming comprehension. Despite being smart, she was young and naive when it came to matters of the world.

“So how do you plan on responding now? Will you push for the Ladder match or fight the Sand Dragon King?” Feng Yi also hurried back.

“I personally think the Ladder match is a better choice.” Guardian Angel analyzed, “Consider his skill, not to mention thirty consecutive wins, even hundreds are possible. He has almost no peers and the speed would be fast too. If we aim for the number one spot on the ladder leaderboard, it should not take more than half a night.”

“No, I think the Sand Dragon King is a better choice. Now, all the elite players are challenging the Sand Dragon King and then advancing to the Central Arena, this is the gathering spot for tonight’s top players. On the contrary, his skill is excellent without a doubt, taking first place would not be a problem. But the issue is, there would be people belittling him.” Unparalleled sat in the distance and said indifferently.

Sister Li nodded, “There’s no need to argue about this. The guild leader’s elite mission requires him to dominate the Central Arena with a hundred consecutive wins. So, whether or not for the guild’s promotion, the Central Arena is something we must fight.”

“What kind of abnormal mission is this, it nearly scared me to death.” Guardian Angel was speechless.

“The ones who can challenge the Sand Dragon King within one day either have extremely strong elite professions, or their skills are extraordinarily excellent. Based on my observation of the Central Arena, all the competitors are experts, very strong. If we join, we’ll probably have an equal chance of winning. Moreover, some strong players are also very ruthless.” Feng Yi expressed her concerns.

“Who the hell is your elite professional instructor to give you such a brutal mission, it’s clearly not meant to be completed.” Unparalleled was formidable, but not arrogant enough to win a hundred consecutive games, even a ten-match winning streak would be amazing.

Li Yao shrugged and said, “Didn’t I already tell you? My elite professional instructor is the Shadow City Queen, you just didn’t believe me.”

“I believe you this time, only such a monster like you could have the queen as your instructor, but now it’s unclear whether that’s a good or bad thing.” Unparalleled’s words were full of schadenfreude.

“No problem, we’ll also join the line later, and then intentionally lose, that should work, right?” Dumb-like Tonton suggested.

“Oh, this idea is good.” Guardian Angel’s eyes lit up.

“No need, I want to earn my hundred consecutive wins fair and square.” Li Yao continued, “Besides, you’re thinking too simply. If the system detects intentional losing, we could be banned from the game, it’s not worth it.”

“Yeah, we can’t throw matches. For the guild’s honor and the guild leader’s image, we have to compete fairly.” Sister Li said seriously, “So, either don’t participate, or give it your all. Anyway, you’re not my opponent.”

“I still disagree, and I’ve learned new techniques, I want to test them out.” Unparalleled said.

“You can test them anytime, you still can’t win.” Li Yao said confidently.

“Alright, guild leader, how do you plan to arrange?” Sister Li asked.

“Post an announcement, saying that I’m going to challenge the Sand Dragon King, those who want to watch should hurry, of course, there is a fee, one silver coin for entry.” Li Yao said.

“Damn, profiteer.” Guardian Angel gave a thumbs down.

Sister Li nodded, “This way, the guild funds will be plentiful again.”…
