Chapter 942
After parting ways with Water Fairy, it was time for Lu Li to enter the arena .


Today's match was against Stellar Union . On the rankings, Stellar Union was ranked at number 10 . They used to be one of the guilds that was able to fight for the top position with Glory Capital . However, their previous leader was too focused on the major events and did not care about the little battles that occurred . After this, Stellar Union then began on a downhill slide .
As for the Stellar Union right now, they only had one professional player in their ranks, who was Twilight . However, although they lacked actual professional players, they were not lacking in players who were qualified to fight in competitions like this .
To be a normal competitor, player just had to get signed by an agency . However, to ascend from being a normal competitor to a professional, they had to gain the approval of the audience . Players like March Rain and Lu Li were recognised as professionals because their mechanics and skills in the arena were widely approved .
"Stellar Union used to be such a strong competitor . It was unfortunate that they lost a key player and was only left with Twilight to carry their squads . However, their overall skill as a team is not to be underestimated," Cat Dad said .
After Kitty Likes Meat had joined Ruling Sword, her father decided to join too . He then became the main coach for the Ruling Sword teams .
Usually, he trained March Rain and Sakura Memories inthe general knowledge that competitors should have . He would also teach them how to use the System to train . When there were matches that involved Ruling Sword teams, he would direct their entrance to prevent a sabotage of any kind .
However, his impact in Ruling Sword was most obvious during Group Battles .
Cat Dad knew the strategies that the opponent guild would take once he realised who their opponents were . He would then be able to instantly devise counter-strategies against them .
This was something that Lu Li was unable to do, despite being reborn again .
Vincent the Warrior and Kitty Likes Meat emerged onto the stage .


"I knew that they were going to deploy him first . You guys were too rigid when deciding who to deploy for the matches . However, this has worked in your favour, since they had thought that it was either going to be Lu Li or Moonlight . They were hoping to use the Warrior to fight Lu Li," Cat Dad proudly said .
"Why don't we keep going with this tactic? We can then flip the tables during a big competition like Glory Capital," Fat Monkey suggested in bewilderment .
"A small tactic like this isn't going to trick anyone . Only overall strength matters," Cat Dad answered, then swiped at Fat Monkey's head with his hand .
Vincent was a decent player, but his strength could not be compared with the top Warriors .
It was unfortunate that Vincent was facing a Warlock . It was worse for Warriors to meet Warlocks in battle than a Mage .
After Kitty Likes Meat was done with him, she was still left with 50% HP .

Her next opponent was the Thief called Bull Balls . A matchup between a Thief and Warlock depended on their mechanics and luck . However, Bull Balls was well-known for his ability to drag out battles while Kitty Likes Meat was a young player who was extremely keen on offense . Unfortunately, Kitty Likes Meat was defeated by Bull Balls .
"Alright, that's enough . Lu Li, it's time . " Cat Dad said as he nodded his head .
Lu Li then emerged from the arena . This fight had become a battle between Thieves .


There were only a few Thieves that had a chance at defeating Lu Li and Bull Balls was not one of them . Lu Li entered enhanced Stealth immediately as the battle began . Bull Balls had no chance at even striking Lu Li before collapsing .

He had not even lost a sliver of HP .
Twilight had a grim expression on his face as he watched the battle .
Everyone had thought that this was purely because of Lu Li's enormous strength . The gap between these two Thieves were ever more apparent when explaining how Lu Li had positioned himself and used his techniques .
Instead, Twilight had thought that he had underestimated Lu Li . The improvements that Lu Li had made in such a short period of time had exceeded his expectations . He had originally thought that Bull Balls would be able to at least take a third of Lu Li's HP . After all, his equipment was comparable to a professional player's .
Stellar Union were wealthy and prestigious – after all, they did have tens of elite teams . How could they not train up even a single elite Thief?
It was unquestionable – Lu Li had gained new equipment .
Lu Li's next opponent was a Hunter called Purple Heart of the Sea . He was a newly trained player and had brought a prestigious pet that had the ability to 'Split' . This caused some trouble for Lu Li, who lost a third of his HP bar . However, he still managed to defeat him in the end .
Lu Li's next opponent was a Paladin called 'Cut Me 72 Times' .
Many organisations had begun training Paladins to counter Thieves and Mages . This was because Paladins with good equipment dealt comparable burst damage to a Warrior, while having extremely powerful regenerative skills .
Lu Li consumed Pamela's Sweet Tea, which recovered around 30% of his max HP, enough to completely replenish his health bar .
The ones who disliked Lu Li proceeded to boo him, as they thought that he was being a bully .
Lu Li hated facing off against tank-type classes; his combo skills were not able to make a large dent their HP bars . After using his crowd-control skills, he began to shift his approach to being passive in the fight . After all, his equipment was only leather, while his opponent had plate armour .
Cut Me 72 Times had chosen the pathway of a tough thank that slowly shaved off their opponent's HP . He had managed to balance his offense and defence, while having a few strong recovery skills .
As such, Lu Li found it more difficult this time around .
"How does one fight in a situation like this?" Fat Monkey asked Cat Dad .
Cat Dad mulled over the question with a hand on his chin, then responded, "Actually, these types of players are the easiest to fight against . Their mana is nearly always lacking . Also, never be afraid to go head to head with players like these, since they don't deal a lot of damage anyway . "
"But Lu Li has already lost half of his HP!" Fat Monkey could not understand what Cat Dad was saying .
Truthfully, Lu Li was losing . His health had already been shaved off by 50%, while his opponent was gaining HP after every strike . The Paladin still had near to 80% HP .
"Do you know what grave mistake this Knight has made?" Cat Dad asked, in full lecturer mode .
"Uncle, stop trying to give hope . I think that Lu Li's going to lose soon . "
Fat Monkey had an impatient nature which had preferred to confront the enemy one on one . If he lost, then he lost and if he won, then he won . Strategy was not one of his strong points .
"He has no mana left . Why do you think that he's only using normal attacks?" Cat Dad asked as he pointed towards the stage .
Cut Me 72 Times was in a bad position . He had realised that he should not have thought about winning quickly .
Cat Dad was right . If he had fought with a mindset of slowly grinding Lu Li's HP down by confronting him head on, then he would have been a serious threat . However, he had sought the glory of defeating Lu Li in front of such a crowd and had healed himself after every strike .
As a result, he had burned through too much mana .
The Paladin class greatly depended on mana . Now that he had none left, he was like a toothless tiger . Under Lu Li's brutal and relentless barrage of attacks, he could not last any more than a few seconds .
Lu Li's first set of combos could not down him, but the second rotation told a different story .
The Paladin had lost purely because of his insufficient mana regeneration . Even after his defeat, he still did not have enough mana for one recovery skill .
