Under Xiao Han’s command, Mojue team won the first round neatly, but this was far from enough. Only by continuing to win the second round could they get points. At present, they had fallen to third place, overtaken by Dynasty and Frost Moon, and the points of Without Fire behind them were also very tight. If they still had nothing to gain this week, it would be a big disadvantage.
Xiao Han was well aware of the importance of the second round and took advantage of the intermission time to gather the players together and arrange the lineup for the next round.
In Frost Moon team’s soundproof room, Chen Jiang was also seriously explaining the arrangements for the second round to the players. Ye Chao simply analysed. “In the first round, both Mojue and Frost Moon sent five output players. It was Frost Moon’s home game in the second round, they may choose a terrain that is beneficial to their own side and send a more stable lineup.”
“Xiao Pang should play, right?” Liang Ru replied. “His performance has been very good in three-players competition, as well as in the team competition in the last few weeks.”
Ye Chao nodded. “En, as Emperor Xiao’s successor, this boy’s body weight that is stable ‘heavy’ is also as heavy as Mount Tai in the game.”
Since Pang Jia’s official appearance in the three-players competition, his weight had become a hot topic among netizens. At present, there were many handsome guys in the Peerless Jianghu league, and many great gods were almost as handsome as stars, and their figure was first-class. It was rare to see a fat man like Pang Jia. What’s more, this player had a good state of mind and didn’t mind telling others that he was fat. Sometimes he joked about his weight on Weibo: “My weight is two times more than god Mo, if I can’t beat him in the game, I’ll crush him with my weight [haha].”
Because of his Weibo, Qin Mo’s fans began to send food to the Dragon Song club frantically, trying to fatten captain Qin. Chocolates, biscuits, rice dumplings… all kinds of snack packages were delivered one after another. When delivered to the door, Qin Mo compelled to post a message on his Weibo, saying: “Thank you for your kindness. I have regular meals for three meals a day. I don’t have a habit of eating snacks. Please don’t feed me anymore. Thank you very much.”
However, fans still thought that he was too thin. Although the enthusiasm for sending snacks gradually faded, many people leave messages every day to let him pay attention to rest and eat more nutritious things…
Qin Mo wanted to say that he had the kind of physique that didn’t get fat at all.
As for Pang Jia’s weight was twice that of him, not because he was too thin, but because Pang Jia was too fat…
In the second round of Frost Moon’s home game, as Ye Chao expected, Chen Jiang chose the spatial map which was very favorable for the double whip flow tactics when submitting the mode and map—— Jiuzhuan Stone Platform.
This map was rarely used, because the three-dimensional spatial map was too complicated to fight in a team battle. Jiuzhuan Stone Platform had a total of nine spatial steps, which were divided into upper, middle and lower layers. There was a distance between the same steps that could be leaped by qinggong, while the vertical distance between different steps exceeds 20 metres, so it couldn’t be reached by qinggong, and could be reached only by climbing the stairs next to it.
In other words, they could jump directly from higher to lower layer, but from lower to higher layer, they had to climb up the stairs, which was a waste of time.
Frost Moon team’s whip control field could throw the designated target to the ground. This map was extremely beneficial to their way of dividing the battlefield.
The game mode was ‘Treasure Hunt’ mode, and in terms of lineup, Chen Jiang also sent the most powerful five-players combination of Frost Moon team—— double whip control of Chen Jiang and He Yue, Pang Jia’s front row, Rong Haibin’s bone fan flow single target attack, and Gao Ziyang as the healer.
It was such a comprehensive lineup with meat shield, healer, field control, and single target attack.
The treasure hunt mode was more flexible, and many netizens had pointed out that this mode could even put on the lineup of ‘four healers and one output’—— the healer and the output each grab a treasure chest after the start of the game to ensure that they had five treasure chests in their own hands. At the start of the team battle, the output player could try their best to grab one of the opponent’s treasure chest, and then the four healer dragged the rhythm for 10 minutes to win.
Of course, this was only a theoretical inference from netizens. It was impossible for all the teams in the league to send four healer lineups. The number of times ‘Treasure Hunt’ mode appeared in the league stage was not much at present, and most teams sent more comprehensive lineups from the perspective of team battle.
On Mojue’s side, Xiao Han quickly submitted the lineup list—— Xiao Han, Qin Mo, Pei Yu, Shen He, Zhu Qingyue.
The difference with the first round was that Liu Hong would be replaced with Qingyue. The reason was also very simple. Liu Hong’s trap was not well placed in the multi-layer spatial map, and her play would be greatly limited. However, Qingyue’s existence could improve the fault tolerance rate, and greatly enhance the output of Mojue by using the attack buff array in the opening stage.
After both sides confirmed the lineup, they began to ban the secret books. This game was Xiao Han’s turn to ban. He simply banned the secret books of defense and healing—— Pang Jia’s defensive ability was already very strong. If he got the defense secret book of ‘Immovable Mountain’, it would be very difficult to play the team battle. Xiao Han took the single target attack first, and he also took the single target attack for the next few rounds of selection. His goal was very clear, it was to kill alone and grab the treasure chest!
This was the characteristic of ‘Treasure Hunt’ mode, it was not necessary to destroy the opposite side, as long as they could kill one or two, they could win by getting more treasure chests.
Therefore, in the treasure hunt mode, the priority of single target attack secret books was higher than that of group control and group attack.
After choosing the secret books, the game finally began.
As soon as they entered the competition venue, the players found that there were many golden dots on the small map showing the position of the treasure chests. The number of treasure chest in treasure hunt mode should have been 10, but there were only four golden dots on the map—— precisely because of the spatial map of Jiuzhuan Stone Platform, treasure chest would be respawn on the upper, middle and lower stone platform. When the treasure chest on the upper and lower floors was in the same vertical position, it would only be displayed on the map because of the same coordinates.

“As the treasure chest of the treasure hunt mode is randomly respawned after the game began, the players must find the location of the treasure chest as quickly as possible, which also depends on a certain amount of luck.” Liang Ru added.
In order for the team members to distinguish the location of the stone platform, Xiao Han quickly marked it on the mini map after the start. He happened to respawn on the top stone platform. There were two layers of stone platform under his feet. Xiao Han set his own location. The position was marked with number 1, the stone platform on the left hand side was marked as number 2, and the right hand side was number 3, followed by the voice channel. “Everyone, report your position!”
Qin Mo. “Number 2 in the middle layer.”
Shen He. “I’m next to my master, number 3 position.”
Pei Yu. “Lower layer, number 1 position.”
Zhu Qingyue. “Number 3 position on the ground.”
After several text messages were typed out on the team channel, Xiao Han immediately created a spatial structure map in his mind.
With three steps and the ground, there were four layers in this map, and ten treasure chests would be randomly scattered on the four-layer plane. At present, Qin Mo and Shen He were on the same floor, and there was only one Mojue’s player in each other layer. In the process of treasure hunting, they were likely to be alone, and they would be besieged by Frost Moon duo.
Similarly, on the floor where Qin Mo and Shen He were located, the master and apprentice could also surround and kill the Frost Moon’s player who was alone.
Xiao Han quickly made a decision. “Everyone collects the treasure chest on your own floor as soon as possible. Xiao Pei should be very careful. Once you meet two players from the opposite, immediately jump down and join Qingyue!”
Pei Yu typed ‘1’ to show that he understood.
***
From the perspective of God, the audience had seen the situation clearly through the aerial view cut by the director.
On the top stone platform, the players respawned were Mojue’s god Han and Frost Moon’s Rong Haibin, and there were two treasure chests. Each of them took a treasure chest closer to them and went to other places to help. They did not mean to take away the opponent’s treasure chest alone.
The situation of the lower stone platform was similar to that of the top. Mojue’s Pei Yu was alone, and the other was Frost Moon’s healer Gao Ziyang, and there were two treasure chests, each with one.
The middle layer was relatively complex, the players here were Mojue’s Qin Mo and Shen He, with Frost Moon’s Cheng Jiang and Pang Jia, but there were only three treasure chests.
If four players wanted to divide three treasure chests, a small-scale team battle would definitely break out.
Qin Mo got a treasure chest at the beginning, but Shen He was a step slower. When he was about to jump onto the stone platform to open the treasure chest, a green, poisonous whip came behind him, accurately wrapped around his waist, and rolled him directly to the lower floor!
Shen He was swept away, and Chen Jiang took the opportunity to grab a treasure chest. Pang Jia, a teammate on the same floor, also quickly grabbed a treasure chest, and Frost Moon team had a slight advantage.
But in the bottom ground, Zhu Qingyue was alone, Frost Moon’s player was also alone, but there were three treasure chests.
After each of them took a close treasure chest, there was still a treasure chest shining in the middle. At this time, Shen He suddenly fell from the sky. The place where he fell was very close to the treasure chest. However, seeing that he was about to get the treasure chest, Shen He was excited when a cold snow-white whip swept from behind him—— this time, it was not him who was swept away, but the treasure chest!
It was really irritating to watch the treasure chest swept away!
Shen He was very depressed—— he was thrown off by Chen Jiang with a whip on the middle platform, and failed to grab the treasure chest. After falling to the lower floor, seeing that he could reach the treasure chest, and once again failed to grab the treasure chest under his nose because Chen Jiang’s martial sister, He Yue, swept it away with the whip.
So far, all the ten treasure chests respawn in the map had been claimed, Mojue team had taken four, but Frost Moon team had taken six.
“Mojue’s start was not very good.” Ye Chao commented. “The middle and bottom were robbed by the opponents. At present, Shen He didn’t get the treasure chest, and each of the other four had one. On Frost Moon’s side, Pang Jia, Rong Haibin and Gao Ziyang each got a treasure chest, while Chen Jiang and He Yue’s used the whip to sweep the player or roll treasure chests over, and got two treasure chests.”
“The game has only been going on for three minutes, and whether the advantages of the two treasure chests of Frost Moon can be maintained until the end is the key.” Liang Ru replied.
“That’s right.” Ye Chao nodded. “The treasure chest on the map has been divided. Next, Frost Moon will focus on defensive strategy, and Mojue must find ways to take more treasure chests from them.”
Treasure hunt mode was a time-limited game, where to start the team battle, which person should be killed first, the commander must make a decision as soon as possible.
Observing the field situation, Xiao Han immediately gave instructions. “Everybody jump to the bottom and kill He Yue! Qingyue, get ready to fight!”
At present, he was on the third floor stone platform, Qin Mo was on the second floor, Pei Yu on the first floor, Qingyue and Shen He were on the ground at the bottom. If Mojue wanted to gather all the players, the quickest way was for the higher floors’ players to jump down straight to the bottom.
As soon as Xiao Han’s instructions were given, the audience saw that the three of Mojue’s players jumped decisively from the edge of the stone platform, just as orderly as dying for love.
Some netizens made a joke: “If this is fall to death, it’s a miracle!”
Professional players couldn’t make such low-level mistakes as jumping off a cliff and ‘falling to death’. Before landing, they were skillfully operating the qinggong skill.
After the three players went down to the ground, Qingyue had cast a skill ahead of time and opened the attack bonus array—— White Umbrella Array!
With the opening of the white umbrella, all teammates within the range got the attack power and critical hit bonus.
Xiao Han unceremoniously split five shadows to besiege He Yue. He almost split the shadows at the moment he landed, so that from He Yue’s point of view, it was as if five shadows jumped down from the air and beat her. The visual effect was almost creepy and made her back feel hairy.
After the siege of the five shadows, it was followed by the critical strike of ‘Meteor’ and ‘Deadly Ice Silkworm’!
Qin Mo’s sword was not willing to lag behind, a white sword accurately pierced He Yue’s chest!
Pei Yu and Shen He followed closely, and they launched a long-range attack together to help Han-Mo kill He Yue in second.
Seeing that everyone in Mojue instantly turned He Yue’s health to a 10% dangerous state, but at this moment, a golden shield suddenly appeared on her body—— a shield for immunity to all damage and control skill for 3 seconds, coming from Kuangdao Gate’s teammate.
Frost Moon’s fans suddenly became excited, and a row of comments was typed on the live broadcast screen: “Xiao Pang is mighty!”
“Xiao Pang’s rescue is too timely!”
“Although my Xiao Pang has a lot of meat, the reaction is not slow at all!”
Pang Jia’s reaction was really fast, and Chen Jiang’s response speed was also first class. When they saw Xiao Han and his teammates jumping down collectively, they knew Mojue’s goal, so Chen Jiang also gave instructions to all his teammates ‘Jump to the lower level.’ Seeing He Yue’s residual blood in the air, Pang Jia decisively threw a shield over her body, buying her 3 seconds. After 3 seconds, the healer reached the battlefield. Although Frost Moon’s healer level was not first class, he was born in a professional team after all, and his consciousness must be able to keep up. He immediately healed He Yue’s health to full.
In the first wave of team battles, Mojue failed to kill He Yue in second.
With five minutes left in the game, the arrival of the meat shield and healer would make the Frost Moon team’s defensive ability to a higher level, and it would be very difficult for Mojue to try to kill them again.
“Xiao Han has two choices.” Ye Chao analysed. “The first is to directly kill He Yue or Chen Jiang because the martial sibling has two treasure chests on their body. If one of them can be killed and these two treasure chests can be taken back, Mojue will have the advantage or even win the game with the treasure chest of 6:4. Another plan is to kill Rong Haibin, Pang Jia or Gao Ziyang, grab one treasure chest first, make the number of the treasure chest equal to 5:5, and then kill another person.”
“Because Chen Jiang and He Yue have more treasure chests, they will become the focus of their teammates.” Liang Ru added. “On the contrary, other players with few treasure chests may have defense loopholes. Both of these choices are feasible. I wonder if god Han will change his strategy?”
Xiao Han quickly gave the answer to the audience—— No change.
He didn’t want to kill one and then kill another. Since there was a more direct winning strategy, why should he go in a roundabout way?
Xiao Han still gave the same instruction as before——focus on Chen-Yue!
Although Frost Moon team had a meat shield and healer, and the defensive ability of the team battle was very strong, just now, in order to rob the treasure chest, Chen Jiang and He Yue’s control skills were in cooldown. Moreover, Frost Moon healer’s level was limited, so as long as the output speed of Mojue was faster than the other party’s healing speed, He Yue could be killed by bypassing Pang Jia!
Xiao Han gave an instruction. “Shen He, control Xiao Pang, Pei Yu, you can interfere the healer, Qingyue open transmission, I will attack with Qin Mo, countdown three seconds, ready——”
He gave the players a little time to adjust, and at the same time, he was also confusing Chen Jiang. All of Mojue’s players suddenly stopped and began to move quickly. Chen Jiang naturally doubted whether Xiao Han was going to replace the target to kill or not. As a result, 3 seconds later, everyone in Mojue suddenly acted together!
Shen He continuously summoned two mechanical snakes, one on the left and the other on the right, and pinned Pang Jia to immobilize him!
Pei Yu flew into the air with qinggong, and his flute played a crisp music in his hand. It was a ‘Broken Bridge’ skill with straight-line penetration control skills, and the target healer on the straight line was instantly dizzy!
While Zhu Qingyue made a wonderful operation, he suddenly threw out his white umbrella and made a transmission array, which directly teleported Qin Mo, Xiao Han and He Yue to the southeast corner of the map, far away from the team battle area!
Was it a battlefield separation? This was a patent style of the Frost Moon team!
Seeing this scene, Chen Jiang almost wanted to drop his keyboard, this method was really quick-witted!
Shen He, Pei Yu and Zhu Qingyue stayed behind to control the field, while Qin Mo and Xiao Han went to kill He Yue. Xiao Han’s idea of dividing the battlefield was really strong, but the most important thing was: could both newcomers Pei Yu and Shen He, plus Zhu Qingyue control the four players of Frost Moon?
Fans at the scene held their breath nervously, and Ye Chao could not help commenting. “The cooperation between Shen He and Pei Yu has been seen many times in previous games, and the most commonly used is aerial attacks to press the whole team’s health to create output conditions for Xiao Han. But today, what they needed to do was not to decrease the opponent’s health, but to control the opponent, and didn’t let the opponent support He Yue!”
“Their control skills need to be seamlessly connected, because the opposite healer has already solved Pei Yu’s dizziness control!” Liang Ru nervously replied.
After all, the other party’s healer was not a fool, He Yue was taken away, he must release the control to save his teammate. However, at the moment when he was just out of control, Shen He suddenly summoned the mechanical horse, and there was another wave of group fear!
Chen Jiang had the teleportation skill to get out of fear control. Pei Yu kept an eye on his actions and decisively connected to the single target silence of ‘Spring Lake’ before he used his skill!
The 3-second control time was coming to an end. Shen He once again forcibly summoned the mechanical chariot, and surrounded Frost Moon’s four players in four directions!
At this time, Zhu Qingyue also used ‘Umbrella Spin’ skill, which directly weakened the opposing healer…
Mojue’s three players tried their best to use control skills one by one, in order to stall the rescue of Frost Moon’s team members and buy more time for Han-Mo!
Qin Mo and Xiao Han didn’t disappoint them either. They both brought the single target attack secret books. With all of their explosive skills activated, in a twinkling of an eye, He Yue’s health reduced to about 30%. Qin Mo immediately used ‘River Sunset’ secret book with the effect of instant death, and directly killed He Yue!
Mojue’s treasure chest had become six, and there was only one minute left before the end of the game!
Qin Mo and Xiao Han were far away from the team battle area. Both of them decisively climbed the stairs to the first floor. Seeing that He Yue was killed, Zhu Qingyue did not hesitate to open a large-scale invincible array ‘Cyan Rain Curtain’. Within 5 seconds, the three of them would be invincible without being attacked and controlled. Taking advantage of this time, Shen He, Pei Yu and Zhu Qingyue also quickly climbed to the first floor.
Chen Jiang asked his teammates to catch up, but it was too late!
By the time they reached the first floor, five Mojue’s players had climbed to the second floor…
After catching up again, they had already reached the third floor…
Finally, after catching up with the third floor, Xiao Han and the whole team jumped back to the ground…
Chen Jiang was about to collapse—— the spatial map he chose by himself was finally used by Xiao Han to play hide-and-seek, and he had to admit that he lost!
When the game time was up, Mojue would win.
Seeing this scene, fans couldn’t help laughing, saying that Xiao Han’s style of play was the most straightforward. In the previous game, Xiao Han was mostly straight to the front of his opponent, because his personal strength was already proved, and he was not afraid of anyone to hit him head on.
But judging from today’s two rounds of the game, he would also use the roundabout tactics of pitting people and infuriating people. This was definitely a bad example from Qin Mo, right?
[ Qin Mo wanted to say that he had the kind of physique that didn’t get fat at all. ]
I also want that kind of physique… QAQ
Oh~? They’re really a well matched couple! Learning from each other~~
Thank you for the chapter 💜💜💜
I also wantt, want to eat a lot food without getting fatter 😭
hopefully Qin Mo doesn’t learn Xiao Han’s shamelessness 🤣
You’re welcome~ 💕
