“Not the Pugilist? Why?” Mo Xiaobei already had the intention to scare Wang Yu first. Hearing how Rolling Mario said not to touch him, she was instantly unhappy.

“No whys!” Rolling Mario said seriously, “Not only you cannot touch him, but we also have to avoid him throughout or else we are dead.”

“But…”

“No buts. If you don’t follow orders, even if we win this time around, you won’t be able to participate in future ones.” Rolling Mario repeated seriously once more.

“Alright!” Although Mo Xiaobei was the leader, she still abided by Rolling Mario’s orders as he was the core of their battle tactics.

After splitting up their duties, Mo Xiaobei entered the thorn bushes.

Seeing that Mo Xiaobei disappeared, the rest quickly followed and walked towards Quan Zhen Sect.

Mo Xiaobei followed the thorn bushes until the end where Quan Zhen Sect first emerged.

As a battle scene, Thorn Fantasy Array’s map was not too big and was about the same as regular competition grounds, a typical circular battleground. If there were no thorn bushes, its end could be seen in a glance.

At that time, Quan Zhen Sect was standing at the point they entered and did not move at all.

“Are we going to just wait for death here?” The match had begun for a few minutes but Fearless did not let them move forward. Ming Du was already becoming impatient.

Wang Yu said, “Rolling Mario is very sneaky. He must have a plan since he chose this map. If we carelessly move forward or split up, we might fall into his trap.”

Wang Yu added, “I’m not afraid. I’m just afraid you guys can’t handle it.”

“F*ck you!” Everyone rolled their eyes.

Vainglory suspectingly said, “Is that Rolling Mario as good as you claim?”

“Yes! He is well-versed in battle tactics, nowhere worse than me,” Fearless said with a deep voice.

Quan Zhen Sect was able to escape in Thorn City thanks to Rolling Mario’s idea. It proved something for him to come up with an idea that Fearless could not.

“Is he really that good? I think he is leading a bunch of idiots!” Vainglory did not believe what Fearless said about Rolling Mario.

Fearless rarely praised anyone. It was once in a blue moon that he would give such an appraisal of someone.

“Leading a bunch of idiots? Then what do you look like having Ming Du around you?” Fearless rebutted. Vainglory turned to look at Ming Du and immediately shut up.

“Huh! Nearing their deaths and still so arrogant!” Mo Xiaobei was watching Quan Zhen Sect chatting and she snarled then gently punched the thorn bush beside her.

The thorn bush disappeared and a dark workbench appeared.

This workbench was very rundown. Right at its front was a cannon like the fishing master’s and at the back of the cannon was a pole and a red button which was for adjusting its direction and to attack.

Mo Xiaobei aimed the cannon at Yang Nuo who was at the back of Quan Zhen Sect then gently pressed the red button. An unseen brown teleportation formation appeared below Yang Nuo’s feet.

“Did you guys hear a sound from there?”

Just then, Wang Yu, who had sensitive hearing, pointed at the thorn bush on the right and said.

“What sound?” Everyone looked towards the right after hearing Wang Yu. However, the thorn bushes blurred everything. Abnormally, even Fearless who had extended vision from his spectacles could not see clearly.

“Little Yang, use your [Eagle Eye] to take a look!” Wang Yu turned and shouted at Yang Nuo. As Quan Zhen Sect’s only Archer, Yang Nuo’s role was to be their binoculars.

After Wang Yu shouted, Yang Nuo did not respond for a long time.

Vainglory turned back and look, then screamed, “Ah? Sister Snow is gone!”

“???” Everyone heard him and turned around. They saw an empty space at where Yang Nuo was standing then sent her message but the system notified, “Recipient is not within the service area.”

“F*ck, what happened?”

Seeing this, everyone was stunned.

In the bushes, Mo Xiaobei saw Yang Nuo disappear and laughed in the chat, “Go to coordinates “xxx.xxx”, I caught a girl!”

“Ok! Start the plane change!” Rolling Mario replied and Mo Xiaobei stepped on the black switch at the bottom of the workbench. Mario and the rest disappeared from the scene and appeared in another exact same scene.

“F*ck, Thorn City’s people are really shameless!”

The Twilight City players, who were focused on watching the match, shocked and started scolding.

This Thorn Fantasy Array was actually a plane scene map.

Plane scene maps could send players to another parallel space after they enter the traps.

Twilight City’s players had seen such things before. The final BOSS at the Dusk Peak’s faction dungeon could enter parallel spaces so for Thorn City to have similar scenes was not surprising.

However, it was reasonable a BOSS had such things but it was quite unfair that players could use such maps in a competition. At this rate, they could just send their opponents to different planes and there was nothing the away players could do.

Luckily, Team Red Flame used this map on the second day of competition. Otherwise, there was no saying how they would torture the players further into the competition.

“The switch controlling the plane is in the thorn bushes on the right!” Mu Zixian could see clearly what was going on as a spectator so she quickly sent Wang Yu a message to alert him.

However, Wang Yu and the rest were in the scene and was akin to using a separate service operator. No matter how Mu Zixian and Ling Longmeng sent them messages or yelled in the guild chat, the system just notified them “Not in service area”.

By then, on the competition screen, Yang Nuo and the players from Red Flame were fighting.

Rolling Mario was the centre of the nine players and they surrounded her tightly.

“Damn it, Thorn City’s players are really shameless!” Seeing how the nine men were tackling Yang Nuo alone, Ling Longmeng was furious.

Twilight City players heard Ling Longmeng cursings and it was as though they found a soulmate. They looked at her then followed to scold, “Thorn City, how shameless!”

At such a time, players from the same city were united. Although when they were in Twilight City, they despised one another, when their city’s lady was bullied by outsiders, everyone was furious. They started pointing middle fingers at Thorn City and scolded them in one loud voice.

The other players from Thorn City were also helpless. Although they had to be scheming on the battlefield, Team Red Flame was indeed shameless. They could not find any reason to rebut them so they could only suck it up.

Finally, a bad-tempered player could not hold in further and complained, “Team Red Flame is the scheming one… What has it got to do with us!”

“Alright. Team Red Flame, shameless!” Twilight City’s players changed their slogan.
