《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 1229. Prideful Squad
Advertisement
After Deathly Dark Moon was trampled to death by Boson and others, the Knight’s invulnerable effect was slowly wearing off.
Logically speaking, the Dark Moon Squad was still considered a professional squad even if they were a second-rate squad. Even if Wang Yu surprised them by breaking through the fort on his own, they shouldn’t have been defeated in such a pathetic manner when they had ten players against one.
With the invulnerable effect, the Knight was still capable of going against Wang Yu. Once the effect wore off, everything he did was futile.
It took less than a few seconds for Wang Yu to throw him down the pagoda.
The outcome was obvious.
In the third round of the competition, the Quan Zhen Sect attained victory over Dark Moon Squad with half of their squad dead.
Concurrently, Wang Yu left a deep impression in everyone’s mind.
He legitimately broke through a ten-man defense all on his own and all his opponents were professional experts. This was the first time everyone had witnessed something like that in the professional scenes.
Comparatively, everyone was more worried about this map. This was simply a ridiculously shameless map with a nearly invincible fort. If the Quan Zhen Sect didn’t have a supreme expert like Wang Yu, they would have lost the match without a doubt.
A map like this was evidently unfair.
Even the Quan Zhen Sect’s players, who were knocked out of the map, was still shaking from the earlier match.
“Damn it!” Fearless sneered coldly, “What a foul! A broken map like this can only be used once! It will not be effective the next time someone uses it.”
“What do you mean?” Everyone was taken aback by Fearless’ comment.
Fearless replied, “Do you guys know that a Priest’s invulnerable skill can last for eight seconds?”
“Right!”
At this point, Boundless Ocean also explained to his men, “I’m fairly confident that they were planning to use this map specifically against us. However, this map has a very obvious weakness. All we need to do is to gather together and as long as we have a Priest with us, the Priest could simply cover us with [Invulnerability] while we fly up and release a few AOE to kill everyone.”

“And if we cannot instant kill everyone up there?” someone questioned.
“Then we wait for CD and do it again!” Boundless Ocean chuckled.
“F*ck…”
Hearing Boundless Ocean’s explanation, everyone came to a realisation. It was no wonder the first person they killed was the Priest.
…
Team A Murder Of Crows attained victory in the first matchup for the professional group.
Following the announcement of the outcome, Wang Yu and the rest returned to their seats.
This time, the spectators did not boo or jeer at them anymore.
This was because A Murder Of Crows won this match in an exciting and intriguing manner. To think that an amateur team would be able to perform tremendously against a professional team even with the disadvantage in terms of their geographical location. This was basically a match unprecedented in history.
After a short break, the teams for the second match were chosen.
Kingdom of Hell against Heavenly Fire Squad.
The players from Quan Zhen Sect were more familiar with Kingdom of Hell. In fact, some of them were still the idols of the players from Quan Zhen Sect.
However, it was true that these fellas did not have the best of luck. Even though they were pretty strong, their tactics were horrendous and their luck was even worse.
In normal gameplay, one could compensate for the lack of tactics with sufficient strength and ability. However, every player participating in the professional tournament was ruthless in their own ways. Take for example, even though Team A Murder Of Crows has a player like Wang Yu in their ranks, they almost fall short because of tactics. It would be hard for this bunch of fellas to think they can get away with just pure strength and skills.
In any case, this was a squad with incredible potential but no end results. In fact, Fearless would always say this, “If I were their leader, they would have won at least ten championships…”

Heavenly Fire Squad was a team that rose up only in recent years. In terms of strength, they were comparable to the Dark Moon Squad.
However, their image had been excellent in the eyes of the fans. They were basically only second to Uncle Iron Bull as the reincarnation of righteousness.
Even though they were both second-rate professional squads, sponsors had to take a queue number and prove their worth if they wanted to sponsor Heavenly Fire Squad. On the other hand, the Dark Moon Squad could only accept sponsors from pirated websites company.
There was nothing they could do about it. Whoever had more fans would often attract more sponsors, regardless of how strong they truly were.
This was especially true for Heavenly Fire Squad’s team leader, Samadhi Fire. He was already a celebrity in show business and after being packaged to enter the game, he basically turned into a popular spokesperson for the game.
Half of the advertisements for > were by this kid. Rumours spread that the amount he was paid for all the advertisements he did in a year was much higher than what people pay an entire squad. He was undoubtedly the most well-paid professional player in the gaming industry.
When Fearless saw that Kingdom of Hell was going up against Heavenly Fire Squad, he couldn’t help but comment, “My poor Kingdom of Hell…”
“Exactly!” Everyone agreed with him at how unlucky they were. They should have changed their name to something more auspicious.
“???”
Wang Yu asked when he heard what everyone said, “It seems like you guys have a deep prejudice against the Heavenly Fire Squad?”
“Tsk!” Fearless replied, “Not only us… Look around, which one of these squads don’t have the same prejudice against them?”
“F*ck…”
Wang Yu looked around and indeed, even though their expressions were not as obvious as the Quan Zhen Sect, he could sense their deep-rooted enmity towards them.
After all, the Heavenly Fire Squad was one of the weakest teams in the professional scenes. However, they were still able to control more than half of the resources in the game even with their limited strength… No expert would feel good after having money or resources taken away from them by a bunch of fellas who earn a living with their faces.
In fact, this was already a trend in reality. Good looks are natural and it is only natural that good looking people have most things easier than everyone else.
…
The two teams entered the arena very quickly.
The match began.
Kingdom of Hell got to choose the map for the first round of individual battles.
In the past, the maps chosen for the first round of individual battles were usually the smallest.
However, Kingdom of Hell actually chose a large map called the Keep Watch Island.
Keep Watch Island was an island that had been through a massive war and it was basically in ruins.
This map was covered in smoke and there were a lot of abandoned buildings. In a map like that, one might not even be able to find their opponent in a thirty-minute individual battle.
Both teams chose their players to fight as white light flashed and both figures were transported to the extreme ends of the island.
The cameras were naturally zoomed in on both individuals.

Statless
Summary Alexander Weiss, an intelligent and slightly unusual man, always dreamt of becoming a mage. Sadly, reality is harsh and even his best efforts never allowed him to achieve his goal during his lifetime... or did they? One has to be careful what they wish for, lest they might live to see it fulfilled. Description Follow Alex, a man whose pursuit of magic could not even be stopped by his non-magical reality, going as far as to create it himself, only to encounter an unsurmountable obstacle shortly before achieving his lifes goal, denying him all access to these powers. His journey will take him through a miraculous world, full of wonders, magic and manic beasts trying to devour him! He will learn much about this world during his adventures, exploring individual aspects of the System and the various monsters that came from it... or did they? Strong points What you'll get from this novel is the following (read with overly enthusiastic salesman-voice) : • An ending! I'll complete it, no matter what. Well, not "no matter what", but as long as I don't unexpectedly end, this novel won't either! • Good grammar! Might not be perfect, but it's definitely good enough to not detract from the story in the slightest. I'll also fix any reported mistakes as soon as possible, be they grammatical, syntactical or just inconsistencies. • No plot-armor! Or plot-weapons! Or plot-... potions? And no plot-holes! If you see some, it's most likely information that is being witheld for future revelations! But in the (hopefully) very unlikely case of such a vile beast being encountered, please inform me immediately and I'll see to slaying it without grace! (Translation: If you see plot-holes, tell me and I'll fix them) • Logic! [Hidden : Spoilers][Hidden : More Spoilers] [Moved to Chapter [Hidden Spoiler]'s Author's Note] Marvelous, I know! • Blue Boxes! And maybe something more! • Sensible retroactive edits! Not to be confused with radioactive edits! You'll not have to re-read previous chapters, even if they get some major edits. If they were to receive new information, I'll add that very information to the newly released chapters too, in a reasonable way. • Realism! Shocking, I know! Especially considering the tag related to that and the point about "Logic!". This also means that the story will be... well, realistically depicting a pretty messed up world. Don't expect bunnies... at least not cute ones. • Relatively faster paced! No long and boring descriptions of irrelevant stuff. There will be some longer descriptions about important things, but that's gonna be necessary world- and/or character-building! • Short action! Might not be a plus for some, but you won't have to look at a whole (or, god forbit, multiple) chapter describing a fight against the same enemy... • Strategy and hard progression! It's a dog-eat-dog world! No grinding/power-creep! If you're up against three enemies of your level at once, you've already lost! • Understanding! It will be mostly about discovering the wonders of this new world and how it became like that, all while trying to survive. So there will be enough action nonetheless! • Humor! Sometimes dark, sometimes light, always at the worst moment! • Constructive critics, welcome! Destructive critics, nope... I can handle criticism though, so don't go easy on me! Just make sure it's really a mistake when complaining about something. • Will add more in the future! If I can think of more stuff...
