1471 Demon Sealing Faction's Prowess(2)

"Embraced by Heaven's Breath!"

With a casual wave of his sleeves and fan, Wu Zao conjured a gust of wind infused with spiritual energy, which he directed towards the group of players charging towards him.

"Ah!"

The wind, though not physically harmful, was a force to be reckoned with. It tore through the air, shattering the players' badges into countless pieces, a sight that sent a wave of panic through their ranks.

"B-badge! Quickly! Protect your badges!"

The players swiftly reached for their badges, protecting them from the wind by embracing them with their palms.

Seeing this, Wu Zao charged into their formation and started smacking the enemy players in the face with his fan.

The moment these players removed their hands from their badges or fought back, Wu Zao immediately went for their badges.

"Fuck! How is he so fast and slippery?! Bastard's like an eel!" They cursed at him.

Despite their best efforts, none of the Fiery Locust Swarm players were able to touch Wu Zao's shadow, much less a hair on his body.

In fact, Wu Zao boasted the fleetest footwork and most agile movements among all members of the Demon Sealing Faction, second only to Yuan.

Due to his choice of weapon, he couldn't effectively block other larger weapons with his small fan, so he focused on avoiding his enemies.

Sometime later, even though Wu Zao started his fight later than Shi Lang, he managed to defeat all one thousand enemies before Shi Lang.

Although Shi Lang also defeated all one thousand enemies, he did not come out unscathed and was struck several times. However, he managed to keep his badge safe. During their entire fight, Yuan did not assist them even once.

Meanwhile, Wang Bingbing was still in the middle of her fight, and she was struggling the most. She was neither as nimble as Wu Zao nor had a long weapon like Shi Lang. With that said, she was not weak by any means and still managed to defeat almost a thousand enemies, albeit with some help from Yuan.

After defeating about 900 players alone, Wang Bingbing started feeling fatigued, causing her movements to become more sluggish.

One of the enemy players eventually broke through her defenses and would've destroyed her badge if not for Yuan's interference.

Right when Wang Bingbing was on the verge of losing her life, the daggers that had been inactive and silently watching the fight like a spectator suddenly moved, blocking the strike that would've taken her life.

Wang Bingbing clenched her teeth in frustration after seeing this and decided to stop holding back.

'They were right. Trying to fight them while holding back so much is incredibly difficult and exhausting!' Wang Bingbing stopped being defensive and started attacking more aggressively.

"Wandering Phantom Sword Arts!"

Wang Bingbing's figure became blurry and even looked like she'd multiplied, splitting into four separate figures.

"What the?!" The remaining players were surprised by her sudden aggression and use of martial techniques, as she had fought them without any techniques this entire time.

"If you don't want any broken bones, you'd better block this properly!" Wang Bingbing warned them as she charged at them without hesitation.

"Ah! My hands! I think my fingers are broken!"

Wang Bingbing purposefully aimed for their hands, as such injuries are not considered severe unless she chopped off their fingers.

After defeating her opponents, Wang Bingbing fell to her buttocks and immediately started cultivating to restore her energy.

"You're holding back a little too much and wasting energy by doing so," Yuan said to her.

"I'm worried that I'd accidentally use too much strength," she sighed.

Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will stop you if I sense that anything might go wrong."

"Okay! Then I will stop holding back!" Wang Bingbing nodded excitedly.

Meanwhile, Yao Xiaoxiao continued her commentary, "The Demon Sealing Faction is truly something! Each of their members has managed to defeat 1,000 players all by themself!"

The audience also chatted, "While undeniably impressive, they have yet to defeat even ten percent of the Fiery Locust Swarm's entire army."

"Right? And how long can they keep this up? They'll probably be too exhausted even to lift their weapons after another battle or two."

Xu Boqin looked at his tablet with a pondering expression.

'They've managed to intercept and defeat all three of our groups, huh.'

He didn't immediately send more players onto the field and waited.

Sometime later, several players from the Fiery Locust Swarm returned to the castle after scouting the battlefield and recalled everything they witnessed to Xu Boqin.

"What? They only have five players, including the ruler? That's impossible! They are surely hiding inside the castle or somewhere on the field!" Xu Boqin doubted this information.

Unlike the audience, the Fiery Locust Swarm had no idea that they were not fighting against the entire Demon Sealing Faction but just half.

"That's what I thought too, but their ruler was not hiding in their castle but standing out in the open in front of their castle with Player Yuan. The other three players were fighting our players on the field."

"No, that can't be. Look again. I don't believe that they're facing us with just five—four people!" Xu Boqin ordered these scouts to redo their scouting.

"Yes!"

These scouts immediately returned to the battlefield and thoroughly searched the entire battlefield for the missing 7 players.

Yuan naturally knew about these scouts but purposefully ignored them to see how Xu Boqin would react to their information.

An hour later, the scouts returned with their results.

"It's real! They only have five players on the field! We've searched the entire battlefield but couldn't find the others!"

"I even sneaked inside their castle to see if they were hiding inside, but as expected, it was empty!"

Xu Boqin narrowed his eyes and pondered the meaning behind their actions.

'Is this a trap? Or are they seriously looking down on us?'

After pondering for several minutes, Xu Boqin looked at the 39 thousand people waiting in front of their castle with a resolute face and shouted, "The Demon Sealing Faction dares to look down on us and mock us by sending just five of their twelve players to confront us in this Faction War! Let's show them the consequences of mocking us by trampling over them and shattering their arrogance!"

The players roared, causing the place to tremble.

Shortly later, Xu Boqin, accompanied by his entire faction of 39 thousand players, marched towards the Demon Sealing Faction's castle.
