Chapter 544: Chapter 534: One-on-One Challenge

Everyone agreed wholeheartedly, then lifted their heads with immense pride, as if being owed a beating was a matter of honour.

“This rabbit runs so fast!” The first player to dash out complained as they nearly broke their legs running but still couldn’t catch up to the rabbits ahead.

The player beside him cursed as well, “Running like a damn rabbit… This is way too fast.”

“Ranged attack, shoot it!”

Someone shouted, and then the players took out their crossbows to shoot at the rabbits in the distance.

They considered using ranged cultivation techniques like Sword Qi, but here in the Divine Realm, the world’s rules were incredibly powerful. The little energy they had accumulated in Cangshan Mountain World was so weak here that if they released True Qi, it would barely be more powerful than a fart.

So, at this moment, crossbows became extremely important.

“Swoosh swoosh swoosh…”

Arrows rained down like a deluge, aiming for the rabbits ahead.

“The first kill in the new world, I’ve got this!” someone yelled excitedly.

Then, they saw the rabbit, as if it had eyes on the back of its head, dodging arrows with its short legs that seemed to be fitted with springs, deftly avoiding all the incoming arrows.

“Damn, these rabbits have some moves.”

“They must’ve maxed out their Agility attribute, right? Keep chasing, once we’re out of the mountain hollow, we can surround them from all sides, we’re bound to catch some,” a smart one suggested.

“Right, right, right…”

“Wait for out of the mountain hollow? Since you losers can’t catch up, then get out of my way!” said a not-so-tall man with long legs.

Upon hearing this, everyone was instantly furious!

A sinister-looking old man scoffed, “My lord, you have quite the tone there. If we are trash, then what does that make you?”

The cloaked man of average height threw off his cloak, revealing a military uniform.

In an instant, the surrounding players collectively gasped, “Ghostly Army?!”

As the name implies, the Ghostly Army held a ghost-like status in the Cangshan Mountain World!

The entire Ghostly Army cultivated Agility techniques, with all attributes invested in Agility, claiming to be the fastest army in Cangshan Mountain World.

This army was not only fast and well-equipped, but also possessed powerful skills!

They never faced their enemies head-on, instead coming and going without a trace, ghost-like in their actions.

And no one had survived an encounter with them once they took action.

But what was most terrifying was not this; they were one of the three closest forces to Li Hongyi, the top master of the Cangshan Mountain World.

They didn’t just represent the Ghostly Army, but also the highest royal power of Cangshan Mountain World!

They had the authority to monitor all under heaven and execute first, report later.

Such an army, to all players, was a dreaded nightmare.

Now that the Ghostly Army had appeared here, they all shivered, their gazes quickly scanning in other directions, “I wonder if anyone else is here…”

People were searching for Li Hongyi, the woman who made the Cangshan Mountain World tremble.

Meanwhile, the old man who spoke earlier shivered with fear, hurriedly bowing his head and carefully apologizing, “My lord, I was just talking nonsense earlier, please don’t take offense.”

“Scram!” Yin Kui said indifferently.

The old man and others quickly stepped aside, no longer daring to block the path.

At the same time, Yin Kui waved his hand, “Catch those rabbits!”

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Several members of the Ghost Army started to accelerate, rapidly closing the distance between them and the rabbits.

Just as the Ghost Army was about to catch the rabbits, the rabbits suddenly accelerated as well, once again widening the gap.

Seeing this, Yin Kui and the Ghost Army showed a flash of surprise in their eyes, followed by shame and anger!

The Ghostly Army was known for its speed, and now they couldn’t catch a rabbit in front of everyone, what face did they have left to show?

“Accelerate, accelerate! We’re about to break out of the valley, surround them immediately, don’t let them get away!” Yin Kui ordered.

Over a dozen Ghost Army soldiers dashed out, popping pills and using various acceleration skills; their speeds soared as they attempted to overtake the rabbits from the edges, gradually forming a semi-encirclement.

“Little Rabbit, where will you run to now?!” a member of the Ghost Army with the name Jixing sneered.

Then he was surprised to find that the rabbit, as if it understood him, looked back with an expression full of panic.

Seeing the fear in the rabbit, Jixing laughed heartily, “Little Rabbit, now you know fear? It’s too late! Once I catch you, I’ll twist off your head, hahaha…”

Then he saw a hint of a smile in the rabbit’s eyes before it suddenly accelerated again, escaping through the C-shaped semi-enclosure.

“Don’t let it escape!” Yin Kui bellowed.

“For the glory of the Ghost Army!” the crowd screamed, their auras linking together, and they formed an acceleration formation, further boosting their speed by fifty percent!

Almost at the same moment, the darting Rabbit suddenly hit the brakes hard, stopped, and casually pulled out a pair of sunglasses to wear on his face with one hand, while stuffing a carrot into his mouth with the other. He raised his hand to light one end of the carrot, puffing on it as if it were a cigarette. With his hands on his hips, he stretched out a leg and arrogantly shook his little foot, saying in human speech, “Chasing me still? I’m already home!”

Although this scene was somewhat beyond what people had anticipated, they still reacted immediately!

Yingkui snorted coldly and said, “So what if you’re home?”

The Rabbit shouted, “My brothers and sisters are all at home, how dare you bully me? Be careful or you’ll get a beating!”

Everyone burst into laughter at this.

The Ghostly Army once again semi-surrounded the Rabbit, and those behind began to catch up.

Since the Rabbit was no longer running, the people of the Ghostly Army held back their hands, preferring to leave the first kill to Li Hongyi.

Jixing looked at the smug Little Rabbit in front of him and scoffed, “Little Rabbit, you have brothers and sisters? Oh wow… I’m so scared…”

Jixing’s face was asking for a beating as he laughed merrily.

The players from the Ghostly Army the day before laughed as well.

The other players who had caught up also burst into laughter upon hearing this.

“Alright then, brothers and sisters, come on out!” the Little Rabbit shouted.

Just then, a rustling sounded from the grass ahead, and numerous rabbit heads popped out!

Everyone was visibly surprised by the sight of these rabbit heads, as they were quite different from the Rabbit they were facing. To start with, those heads were clearly larger and had more flesh on their faces!

But on the whole, their long ears, big buck teeth, and red eyes confirmed that these creatures were indeed rabbits.

As long as they were rabbits, everyone felt annoyed.

Jixing laughed even louder, saying, “So these are your brothers and sisters? Haha, there’s quite a number of them… I’m so scared of getting beaten up by them.”

Then he pointed at a Rabbit closest to him and said, “Come on, you, the Rabbit standing at the front, let’s have a one-on-one duel. Show me how scary you can be, hahaha…”

The others laughed as well.

Then everyone saw that rabbit head start to rise, higher than the grass, higher than the bushes, higher than the small grove…

At the same time, they saw the body connected to that rabbit head, muscles bulging explosively, broad arms, arms as thick as thighs, dressed in a black suit, with a large gold chain, a small wristwatch, plus a watermelon knife and black leather shoes!

Almost simultaneously, a thought flashed through everyone’s mind: “This thing doesn’t look like a rabbit at all!”

Jixing, who had been laughing just a moment ago, had his smile gradually freeze on his face as he muttered, “What the hell is this thing?”

The Rabbit twisted his neck, making a cracking sound.

Then he raised his hands and banged his fists against his chest, producing a loud thud like thunder!

Finally, his face, full of flesh, split into a smile as he said to Jixing, “I, Rabbit! A duel, is it? Let’s go!”

At that moment, Jixing’s face turned green. He had just been trash-talking, never expecting the Rabbit to actually step forward and challenge him to a duel. To make matters worse, this Rabbit looked like he wouldn’t be easy to deal with.

But he couldn’t back down on the bravado he’d boasted in front of everyone, or it would be the Ghostly Army’s face at stake.

Most importantly, Li Hongyi was still watching. He absolutely couldn’t show weakness!

With a grimace, Jixing stepped forward and said, “Fine, a duel it is!”

The Rabbit extended a hand and pointed at Jixing, “I’ll give you a chance, you go first.”

Yin Kui whispered to Jixing, “Don’t be afraid. Given his large size and all those muscles, he’s definitely going down the strength route. This kind of Wild Monster is strong but undoubtedly slow. Don’t meet force with force. Use speed to drag him around and strike when you see an opportunity.”

Jixing nodded vigorously, “Got it, Boss. Don’t worry, I’ll bring his head to you in a moment.”

Yin Kui nodded, “Go.”

The Rabbit, growing impatient at seeing Jixing not advancing, shouted, “Waste of space, are you gonna fight or not?”

“If you’re so eager to die, here’s my sword!”

Jixing charged forward with his Longsword, his mind echoing Yin Kui’s words. He pushed his speed to the limit. With one strike, he charged at the Rabbit like a bolt of white lightning.

The Rabbit moved too, swinging down his watermelon knife.

Seeing the Rabbit’s slow speed, Jixing couldn’t help but laugh. “Boss really hit the nail on the head. This rabbit is indeed slow. Haha…”

Emboldened by this thought, Jixing’s confidence soared, but as his attention drifted, he heard cries of alarm from behind, “Careful!”

Then he saw flashes of White Light as a group of rabbits suddenly appeared all around, every one of them a muscle-bound beast, raising their watermelon knives high and swinging them down in unison!

Jixing’s face changed dramatically as he roared, “Damn it, I thought this was a one-on-one duel!”

Then he heard the eleven huge Rabbits answer in unison, “Yeah, eleven is an odd number too!”

“What kind of ‘one’ is this?!” Jixing felt like his view of the world was collapsing–duels were apparently about odd numbers now!

And what frightened Jixing even more was that the Rabbit, whose movements had seemed slow before, suddenly exploded with terrifying speed, his knife flashing like lightning, several times faster than Jixing’s own!
