"It seems like you didn't take my words to heart."
Looking at Ye Xiaoxiao opposite her, Liu Muxiao lightly stroked her beautiful hair and sighed helplessly.
At the same time, a faint chill gradually spread from around her body.
The earth beneath her feet instantly froze into a layer of crystal-clear frost.
"But it doesn't matter. After you go back, please pass a message to Mr. Ye for me: if he encounters trouble later, he can come find me."
As Liu Muxiao's words fell…
The countdown on the large screen also began.
[10... 9... 8...]
Ye Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows.
She always felt that Liu Muxiao's words held hidden meaning, especially the last sentence.
It didn't seem like she was talking to her, but rather like she was deliberately saying it for someone else to hear.
"What exactly are you up to?"
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, and black energy gradually enveloped her body.
Her intuition told her that this woman was definitely up to no good.
"Just giving well-intentioned advice."
She smiled coldly and formed a hand seal with one hand.
Six flying swords condensed from ice crystals suddenly appeared behind Liu Muxiao.
[3... 2... 1]
[The match begins!]
The countdown reached zero.
"Scourge Descent!"
Monstrous pitch-black death energy, centered on Ye Xiaoxiao, quickly spread out!
At the same time…
Liu Muxiao slowly took a step forward with her fair, tender, long, beautiful legs.
Pfft!
The earth beneath the young girl's feet froze rapidly, and monstrous cold energy erupted abruptly, sweeping frantically in all directions.
Rumble!
The extremely cold ice-blue energy and the pitch-black death energy collided and repelled each other.
The entire arena divided into two worlds.
"Domain-type skill?"
"Liu Muxiao actually didn't hide it this time. Truly decisive."
"It seems like she attaches great importance to this match, or rather, to her opponent."
"Using a domain to counter a domain… This will depend on whose mana is more abundant."
Inside the VIP box, many players and Agents commented and discussed one after another.
When both sides used domain-type skills at the same time, they could cancel each other out.
But similarly, maintaining a domain-type skill required consuming a certain amount of mana.
On this point, Ye Xiaoxiao held the advantage.
After all, her "Scourge Descent" was an extra ability and didn't actually consume mana.
"Go!"
Liu Muxiao waved a single hand.
Two of the six ice-blue flying swords behind her instantly turned into streaks of blue light.
They shot violently towards Ye Xiaoxiao.
Clang! Clang!
Two loud noises rang out abruptly!
The staff in Ye Xiaoxiao's hand instantly transformed into a pitch-black scythe.
While striking down the two flying swords, she pressed one hand fiercely onto the ground.
Countless skeleton minions slowly crawled out from the ground, and in just a moment…
Their number directly climbed to over a hundred!
"Charge!"
With Ye Xiaoxiao's command…
The skeleton army bared their fangs and brandished their claws, roaring and howling.
Densely packed like ants, they charged frantically towards Liu Muxiao's direction.
"Trying to win with a numerical advantage? A pity… that the person you’re facing is me."
Facing the mighty skeleton army, Liu Muxiao smiled calmly.
Blue light flashed behind her, and countless freezing energies condensed frantically, transforming into streaks of ice-blue flying swords.
The number of these ice-blue flying swords was constantly increasing, and their spreading range was getting wider and wider…
Until the entire area behind Liu Muxiao was covered.
Like a high wall cast from ice-blue flying swords.
Swish swish swish!
Liu Muxiao waved a single hand.
Countless ice-blue flying swords shot out like a torrential rain of pear blossoms!
While piercing through countless skeleton minions, they could also freeze up a large area with their freezing energy.
They froze all of the surrounding skeleton minions!
In just a short moment, thick layers of ice walls piled up in the center of the entire arena.
These ice walls were all made from Ye Xiaoxiao's frozen skeleton army.
"Damn it! This girl's skill perfectly counters my skeleton army."
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned tightly.
Unlike the last battle with Cheng Shi, this was her first time feeling suppressed.
"The summoning wind-up of the skeleton army’s too long, while her ice arrows are almost instant!"
In battles with others, Ye Xiaoxiao had never experienced this feeling.
It wasn't until she encountered Liu Muxiao, a large-area crowd control class, that she realized her own shortcomings.
Liu Muxiao's class was said to be Control-type, but it was more akin to a Mage.
If she faced Cheng Shi, Chu Tianhe, or Meng Li, she might not stand out much.
After all, her single-target damage wasn't high, and her control wasn't too strong.
At most, she could disrupt their movement to a certain extent.
But if she faced Ye Xiaoxiao, she was undoubtedly the latter’s natural counter!
"No! If this continues, I’ll be worn out to death by her sooner or later!"
As time slowly passed, the skeleton army blocking Ye Xiaoxiao was also being constantly frozen.
In the entire arena, almost two-thirds of the area was covered with Liu Muxiao's frost.
The surrounding air became increasingly cold and biting.
Ye Xiaoxiao's survival space was also being further compressed.
Some newly summoned skeleton minions didn't even have time to crawl out of the ground before half their bodies were frozen.
"Since that's the case, then I'll just get close and smash her to pieces!"
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes gradually became fierce.
Her five fingers closed together and pinched abruptly!
"Sacrifice!"
Boom boom boom!
In an instant, dazzling sparks flashed.
The ice wall made from countless skeleton corpses blew open a gap in an instant.
Stirring up a sky full of smoke and sand.
Ye Xiaoxiao detonated 10 skeleton minions in one breath.
Surrounded by 10 pitch-black particles around her body…
Whoosh!
Ye Xiaoxiao stomped heavily on the ground with one foot!
Her body instantly turned into an afterimage. Holding the pitch-black scythe, she used the visual blind spot created by the explosion smoke…
To get closer to Liu Muxiao!
"Switched to melee?"
Watching Ye Xiaoxiao rush out from the smoke to approach her…
A faint smile still hung on the corners of Liu Muxiao's mouth.
At the same time, countless ice-blue flying swords behind her shot violently towards Ye Xiaoxiao.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Ye Xiaoxiao's footsteps didn't pause at all, even as she swung the pitch-black scythe in her hand.
While cutting off the incoming ice-blue flying swords, she was also constantly running and dodging.
"Quake!"
Suddenly, Liu Muxiao spotted an opportunity and formed a hand seal with one hand.
Six flying swords plunged straight into the area around Ye Xiaoxiao!
A monstrous chill swept over her calves, and Ye Xiaoxiao suddenly felt her body stiffen.
Subconsciously looking down, she was surprised to find that her lower body was being continuously covered and frozen by biting ice crystals!
"Flash!"
The pitch-black scythe flashed with light.
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate at all, directly unleashing the divine artifact's blessing skill.
Her body suddenly disappeared from the spot.
In the next second, she flashed directly in front of Liu Muxiao, swinging the scythe in her hand and slashing fiercely towards the latter’s waist!
"A pity! The distance is still a bit short."
While Liu Muxiao calmly retreated and dodged, she quickly formed a hand seal with one hand.
Countless ice-blue swords quickly aimed in Ye Xiaoxiao's direction.
"No! Just right."
Ye Xiaoxiao waved a single hand.
Five skeleton minions slowly crawled out from behind Liu Muxiao.
Swish swish swish!
However, just as these skeleton minions crawled halfway out, countless ice-blue ice swords had already shot over violently.
Directly freezing them in place.
"Just this?"
Liu Muxiao narrowed her eyes while smiling coldly.
But at this moment, Ye Xiaoxiao's five fingers suddenly clenched together into a fist.
"Sacrifice!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The five skeleton soldiers exploded directly behind Liu Muxiao!
