Heroes' Prison

Chapter 544 - 532

Miyamoto Musashi had not just one such Energy Stone in his hand, which was truly terrifying. The Exclusive Skills of Rare Classes are extremely powerful, so Energy Value is used to restrict their use to prevent Rare Class Holders from using them frequently and disrupting the balance. A Special Energy Stone temporarily removes this restriction, allowing for a single, no-expense-spared use of an Exclusive Skill – complete madness!

"How can Miyamoto Musashi have so many treasures! First, a large number of S-class Potions, and now more than one Special Energy Stone, it’s just so unfair, I hate it!" Qin Shiyu complained, knitting her brows, feeling that it was very unfair for Huang Yi, as if God had favored Miyamoto Musashi too much and overlooked Huang Yi.

"That’s normal!" Huang Yi, however, took it in stride. He reached out and patted Qin Shiyu’s head as if she was the one who was wronged, comforting her, "Miyamoto Musashi has so many treasures because it’s one of his abilities, just like why I have so many heroes. I can summon countless powerful heroes, but Miyamoto Musashi can’t. The fact that we are Super First-Class experts, the cream of the crop among more than a billion players worldwide, is because we each have our unique characteristics and irreplaceable abilities. Without Heroes’ Prison, I couldn’t have reached these heights. The Second World won’t revolve around me alone; everyone has their own adventure. Look at Sharp Sword, Dragon Spike, Thunder God, the Pope; each one has their own adventure. Once they ascend to the Holy Domain, perhaps their improvement will be even greater than mine. You have to accept this fact."

"Sigh! I know this principle, but in this team competition, Miyamoto Musashi can maximize his abilities, while your Heroes’ Prison can’t be used. It makes one feel unbalanced." Qin Shiyu sighed softly, caring more about Huang Yi’s situation than anyone else.

"Don’t worry! I’ve got quite a few trump cards up my sleeve too. Who wins and who loses is still up in the air!" Huang Yi gave Qin Shiyu a reassuring smile. He had prepared many trump cards for this match: if the opponent forced out all his trump cards and he still couldn’t win, then he would accept defeat!

"Brother, do we have a big chance of winning this match? Don’t you still have an instant-kill potion you haven’t used? I really want to place a bet! My classmates are all hesitating, they want me to ask for your opinion!" At that moment, Xiao Chunzi tilted her little head up and clutched at Huang Yi’s arm to ask.

"Eh, don’t bet! In a team match, an instant-kill potion has limited use," Huang Yi said vaguely. Last time, he conceded a solo match without using that fake instant-kill potion, leading to the current worldwide belief that he still had one. Even Xiao Chunzi was kept in the dark.

If he didn’t use that instant-kill potion in this match, it would surely raise suspicions; unawares, it had become an awkward issue Huang Yi needed to face.

"All right then! I’ll tell them not to bet!" Xiao Chunzi didn’t press further and naively nodded in agreement.

...

Gradually, half an hour went by.

The people around the square became more and more numerous, crowding around the Heroes’ Guild so densely that they seemed like ants under the bright moonlight, occupying every little corner as far as the eye could see. Among them were many Chinese reporters, with home-field advantage, they rushed to Dragon City to be the first to broadcast the Heroes’ Guild’s preparations. The reporters’ comments and the players’ excited discussions filled the air with a tense atmosphere! It was another night that touched the hearts of people worldwide!

It was nighttime in the Eastern Hemisphere, during peak online hours, where the majority of the world’s population resided, including China and Japan, the two competing teams’ countries. Even players from countries in the Western Hemisphere stole moments from their busy schedules to log on at this time or watched the broadcast on their Handheld Photon Brains, eager to witness this final match with their own eyes.

"[System Prompt]: The match time has arrived, do you wish to Teleport to the arena now?"

Finally, the time for the match had come! This would be the last entry prompt people would hear before this ultimate showdown concluded and the martial arts tournament ended, leaving behind memories that many would never forget.

The next moment, the sea of people in Dragon City instantly vanished, leaving only rows of silent streetlights shining, like a ghost town. They all Teleported into the Second Dimension Space of the martial arts tournament and took their seats in the audience.

And Huang Yi led the Heroes’ Guild into the arena.

Still, the deafening noise rang in his ears, a sound so vast it was the shout of a hundred million people at the same time – it was the voice of humanity!

Reporters from various countries and broadcasting stations began their commentaries in different languages.

"Dear viewers, welcome to the final showdown today! This match is of extraordinary importance; a team competition represents the strength of an entire group, more prestigious than a solo match. This match is full of variables, with the greatest focus being on God of Slaughter and Miyamoto Musashi, the only Holy Domain Warriors."

"God of Slaughter has insanely risen to level 120 in the past three days, far outstripping Miyamoto Musashi in level, and he also gained the attention of Divine Marksman Ica, the Vice-Principal of the Oskan Royal Academy and a Demigod, just yesterday. It’s unknown if the Demigod gave him any benefits. In addition, God of Slaughter still has the last instant-kill potion, which he didn’t use in the solo match, and it should play a huge role in this match. Miyamoto Musashi’s strength isn’t weak either; the Martial Arts Team has gathered all of Japan’s top experts, and Miyamoto Musashi is already a pro with various S-class potions. In short, both are very strong, and the outcome of this match is hard to predict."
