Chapter 460: Chapter 460: Handsome for Only Five Seconds

Upon witnessing such a bizarre scene, the entire audience gasped in surprise.

The situation was indeed very strange, considering that the octopus displayed such dominance earlier on. It had ruthlessly crushed every opponent along the way, with the Hunter serving merely as an auxiliary role.

But the moment the Hydra came out, the octopus immediately wilted, trembling as if it had faced its natural predator, paralyzed and too scared to move.

Just moments ago, it was imposing and mighty, but after encountering the Hydra, it became as feeble as a pile of mud. The drastic contrast was so great that it was hard for anyone to accept it.

“Attack, what are you doing?” Borna’s eyes had turned red in embarrassment. He made such grandiose claims earlier, he never expected to face such a swift disgrace, rendering him speechless.

“Pathetic creature, in my presence, all it can do is submit.” The Ice Serpent snorted contemptuously.

The Dark Serpent also said, “Back in the deep seas, these things would serve themselves right into my mouth for dinner. They didn’t even dare make a single peep.”

The spectators fell silent, but upon reflection, it seemed reasonable. After all, the Hydra could speak, whereas the octopus, despite being a leader, didn’t possess such intelligence. Therefore, there was a vast difference between them.

White’s face had turned green with disbelief. This was way beyond his expectations. After all, Borna was formidable just before, having killed three top opponents.

Although White knew that Li Yao was strong, he thought Borna was equally formidable, a worthy opponent. However, he did not expect this to happen.

He felt like crying, he wanted to warn Borna, but the moment the match started, the players could no longer hear him to ensure the competition’s integrity.

Li Yao chuckled, “Hey, this pet isn’t bad, roasted octopus definitely tastes good.”

“Damn it, fight for me.” Borna’s body started to emit a red glow, and so did his pet, which seemed to have grown a little larger.

“Wild Rage, impressive. Surprisingly, you’ve picked up the Beast King’s signature skill.” Li Yao hasn’t seen the use of this skill in the three matches he commentated since the start, and he wasn’t expecting it.

With the inflow of Wild Rage, the erstwhile wilted octopus dashed at the Hydra like a mad beast.

“After you too then, you wanted a face-off, didn’t you? Come on.” Borna roared in intense fury, their earlier embarrassment still lingering in his memory.

“As you wish then, so long.” Li Yao’s body also emitted a red glow, except this time it was him activating Rapid Shooting.

“Let’s see whose hand is faster,” Borna sneered, his body flashing with red light once again as he also activated Rapid Shooting.

Suddenly, a surge of arrows shot towards Li Yao…

“You had a good chance, what a pity.”

Li Yao proceeded to shoot continuously.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Arrows collided, and fragments kept splashing around.

However, this situation only lasted for about four or five seconds. Everyone noticed that Li Yao, without so much as a scratch, had already put away his bow and arrow and stood there poise. Meanwhile, Borna, whose health bar had depleted, fell to the ground.

Disbelief and unwillingness filled Borna’s eyes, but he collapsed nonetheless. Only then did everyone notice the Steel Arrow lodged in his neck.

As he fell, the octopus pet let out a relieved roar and slowly disappeared into the air.

“This round, Prairie Fire wins.” Serena took a deep breath and declared. The fight was unusually brief.

From the start to the end, it only lasted several seconds. Even the fastest fights previously witnessed involved some form of back-and-forth. Seeing a fight get resolved in just a few seconds was entirely unheard of.

If it weren’t for Borna’s earlier win against the three top-rank players, they certainly would have deemed him a beginner.

Conversely, Borna was not a beginner at all, which made the situation even more alarming.

“Replay, replay, replay.”

No one knew who started the chant, but both the people in the stadium and those watching the screen started demanding for a replay. Everything happened so fast, so even the top players struggled to understand precisely what had happened.

Just look at the three commentators, who were also visibly confused. If they hadn’t seen what happened, how were they supposed to commentate?

“At the audience’s request, we will replay the scene in slow motion.” Serena started adjusting the screen and a gigantic, surreal screen appeared mid-air.

At this point, White already looked green. His mood was extremely unpleasant.

“If you look at the first few seconds, both sides were attacking, no, wait. Borna attacked first, then Prairie Fire retorted with his arrows. It wasn’t an exchange of attacks, Prairie Fire was wholly countering Borna’s attack, what a rare occurrence.” Serena exclaimed.

“This isn’t the first time Prairie Fire has done this, it’s his characteristic technique of ‘spear against shield’.” Oz added with a smile.

The audience was speechless. They initially thought that Li Yao was only capable of dealing with beginners and would crumble in front of an experienced player.

But now, they realized they were mistaken. They found out that the so-called top players were no different from the so-called beginners when faced with Li Yao.

Some people finally accepted Li Yao’s skill from the depths of their hearts and planned to study it in-depth after going back.

Borna, who had already been revived, was grimacing. He hadn’t expected his loss.

Of course, he knew that Li Yao also had a Hydra, but he believed his pet was not weaker than that of the opponent. Although his technique wasn’t as good as Li Yao’s, he was sure he could cope with it. He only had to hold on until his octopus defeated the opponent’s pet, and that would be his victory.

However, it wasn’t until the real clash that he realized the gap between him and Li Yao. Whether it was the pets or their archery, he was thoroughly defeated.

“If you look at the fifth second, Prairie Fire suddenly increased the frequency of his attacks, wait, he wasn’t even using his full strength in the first few seconds. At the fifth second, he suddenly sped up, but Borna couldn’t keep up. That’s why the front Steel Arrow collided with Borna’s attack arrows, and the subsequent arrows directly lodged into Borna’s throat. So that’s how it went.”

With Serena’s commentary and the replay of the scene, everyone understood what happened. They knew that Borna had lost fair and square.

Oz cackled, “Before the next match, let’s first have some people to fulfill their wagers.”

The audience members were stunned, then they remembered there was an ongoing bet between two commentators.

Everyone turned to look at the commentators’ booth, with viewers intently focusing on White, waiting for his reaction.

“White has always been a man of his word, I think he won’t default.”
