Reign of the Hunters

Chapter 84: Sha'gar

Since it was now the winter holiday, Ye Ci and Bai Mo no longer had an excuse to stay in their apartment. They had no choice but to return to Ye Nantian's place. Earlier that month, Ye Ci had sent 500,000 real world cash to her parents through the conversion system. Although that amount was still a far cry from being able to afford a larger house, it was more than enough to make life better for her parents.

There was a spare room in the house, so Ye Ci got to sleep in her old room while Bai Mo stayed in the guest room. The two logged into the game after dinner.

The guild members greatly welcomed Ye Ci in the guild channel. They'd been busy; Other than training themselves in the dungeons, the guild members had also sparred in the arena against each other. Even the Life Players took part in it.

Ye Ci went to the guild encampment just in time to see a sparring match. Pea Cake waved something in his hand around, fighting against a Ranger in the arena. Judging from the situation, Pea Cake was not losing, but the Ranger didn't have the upper hand either.

Ye Ci was very interested in what Pea Cake was holding. She could not see clearly what it was, as he was swinging it around at high speed. After a short moment, the Ranger gave up. "Pea Cake, you're too shameless! You told us to not use skills and fight you with our bare hands, but you're flailing your own weapon around."

Pea Cake chuckled, "I'm just experimenting for the greater good of the guild." He then spotted Ye Ci, who was standing not far away, and smiled, "Guild leader, do you want to come and try your hand? If you win, I'll give my new invention to you."

Ye Ci laughed and entered the arena, being cheered on by the rest of the guild members, "No weapons allowed?"

"Yep."

"No abilities either?"

"Yeah. You can only use your flesh and bones." Pea Cake let out a smile so shameless that one would feel the urge to beat the living shit out of him.

Ye Ci nodded, "No problem."

"Ready?" Ideal Height 1.7m stood on a tall table, holding a little flag, "Begin."

Gaining experience from his previous battles, Pea Cake began flailing the weapon in his hand around right after Ideal Height 1.7m gave the signal to start the battle. Ye Ci was fast, and she was able to dodge that thing by slightly shifting herself. She noticed a claw attached to the tip of the weapon, but was still unable to discern the exact shape of the weapon.

Ye Ci dodged several more of Pea Cake's attacks, not showing any intention that she would attack. Pea Cake chuckled, "Guild leader, it seems that you're right. A Huntress' effective combat range was beyond 8 yards. See? You can't do anything against me without your weapon."

Ye Ci was ridiculed by his words, and decided to teach him some humility, "Pea Cake, haven't you heard, an arrogant army is bound to lose."

"Yes." Pea Cake nodded. But before he could continue, Ye Ci whistled, and a jet black panther appeared out of nowhere. It roared and pounced on Pea Cake.

Pea Cake was merely bragging to his own people. If he ran into a PVP situation, he would immediately become panicked. He let out a cry and ran right after seeing a panther pouncing on him. But he could not leave the arena before the battle had ended and as a result, Ol' Three pinned him onto the ground and tore into him savagely.

"I give up, I give up." After such an intimate interaction with Ol' Three, Pea Cake surrendered. Ye Ci did not make things difficult for him, and commanded Ol' Three to stop.

"You cheated!" Pea Cake struggled to get up from the ground, drawing laughter from the other guild members. He straightened up his clothes and climbed out of the arena with a saddened expression, "We agreed that you'd only fight me bare handed, with flesh and bones. You're bullying a Life Player."
