Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1332 - 1235 Ye Yufengyan

For Su Ran, dealing with Green Hat’s move of burrowing into the ground whenever there was a dispute was quite a headache. The only way to counter this move was to control him beforehand!

"Right, the Petrification Orb!"

Su Ran’s eyes lit up, and he immediately devised a plan, feeling greatly relieved. He planned to use his control skills to deal with Green Hat and, by the way, fulfill Xue Wuqing’s last wish... uh, her assignment, and he must fiercely strike at Green Hat’s arrogance!

Ah, just thinking about it was exciting!

At that moment, an unexpected notification from his friend sounded. Su Ran was initially taken aback, a bad feeling quietly creeping in. He opened it, and sure enough, it was from Lin Yuqing.

"Su Ran, my sister and I have arrived, but we haven’t seen anyone causing trouble. There are just a few novice teams leveling up on the shore, so rest assured."

Seeing this message, Su Ran breathed a sigh of relief, and the unease in his heart dissipated.

"Received, thanks for the hard work."

But before Su Ran could send this message, Lin Yuqing’s transmission came again.

"Su Ran, you really guessed right. A team has come from the south, probably thousands strong!"

"Just as I thought, what was bound to come, has come. Yu Jing, keep an eye on their movements, and if the city on the mountain is breached, notify me immediately!"

Su Ran’s tone became somewhat serious, now realizing that the player known as Sister Ling wasn’t just talking big. Being able to gather thousands of troops in such a short time indicated that this woman’s status was indeed not low!

If it were just this amount of troops, with the territory’s defenses, it wouldn’t be a big deal. The real fear was this woman continuously summoning more troops—that would be troublesome!

"Su Ran, don’t be nervous. My sister is also organizing people. You just focus on the competition, we will defend this territory for you!"

Lin Yuqing softly reassured him, "Promise me, you must win the championship at the martial arts tournament!"

"Alright."

After listening to this message, Su Ran felt as if he had been injected with a shot of adrenaline. For some reason, he felt terribly guilty toward the quietly drizzling Yu Jing. She had put in both effort and labor without asking for anything in return, while he had tried every means to avoid her, even reluctant to return her messages. Both morally and logically, he was in the wrong. Everything was done from his own perspective, too selfish.

"Yu Jing, please thank your sister for me."

"You should have done that already! Okay, I’ll pass it on. Just focus on the competition, my Su the great expert!"

Lin Yuqing’s voice was incredibly cheerful, and it seemed that helping Su Ran brought her great joy.

...

Closing the friend interface, Su Ran felt a mix of emotions. Why would Lin Yuqing value him so highly? He wasn’t outstanding in appearance and was seriously ill; he couldn’t find any advantage in himself. Good at studying? Nonsense!

After leaving school, who would still compare exam scores?

Despite his doubts, Su Ran could feel Lin Yuqing’s deep concern, and that was enough.

As time ticked by, the system randomly assigned him another unfamiliar opponent.

This person was dressed like a scholar, wearing a light blue robe that looked quite clean and refreshing. Judging from his appearance, there was a slight naivety in his brow, and he was probably not over twenty years old. In his hand, he held a black folding fan with a large ’Wind’ character written on it. The writing was strong and powerful, exuding a sense of vigor that was evidently not ordinary.

"Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained?"

Seeing Su Ran’s attire, the scholar player shook his head and sighed, "Of all the opponents, you are the one I least wanted to meet. Brother Overturning Water, your existence has become the nightmare of the martial arts tournament."

"Isn’t that an exaggeration?"

Su Ran was a bit taken aback and curiously asked, "Do I really look that terrifying?"

"It’s not you that’s terrifying, but the fact that after being killed by you, people lose a level of experience—this is what’s unbearable! Many players are afraid to encounter you and have directly given up the martial arts tournament. If that’s not a nightmare, what is?"

The scholar flashed a kind smile, closed his folding fan, and said in a gentle tone, "Let me introduce myself, my name is Ye Yufengyan, a specialist with wind magic!"

"Ye Yufengyan? Why does that name sound so familiar?"

Although Su Ran was meeting this person for the first time, the name seemed oddly familiar, and then his eyes lit up, "Aren’t you the Ye Yufengyan from the Earthly List?"

"Thanks to my friends’ high regard, they placed me on the Earthly List, but it’s all just a nominal title, not to be taken seriously."

Ye Yufengyan modestly shook his head and laughed, "Brother Overturning Water, you are the very model of someone indifferent to fame and fortune. What use are rankings?"

"That is indeed a realistic view, Brother Wind, you are a wise man."

Su Ran agreed wholeheartedly with what he said and nodded in earnest.

"Look here, big brother, my name has four characters, none of which repeat, why on earth would you call me Brother Wind? Don’t you think that’s awkward?"

Ye Yufengyan was visibly frustrated, this form of address—similar to calling a woman fertile—it was too prone to misunderstanding...

"Not awkward at all, Brother Wind, it just rolls off the tongue."

"..."

Ye Yufengyan had no energy to debate Su Ran’s sense of style.

At that moment, the system prompt conveniently interrupted their discussion.

"Wind Technique!"

Ye Yufengyan stared in Su Ran’s direction, flicked his folding fan, and two gusts of wind arose, attaching themselves under his feet, and slowly levitated his body into the air.

"Wow, Brother Wind, nice, you even have flying skills!"

Su Ran, who was busy summoning his skeleton troops, was very surprised upon seeing Ye Yufengyan midair.

"What’s so surprising about that? I’ve seen several players with flying skills, including yourself."

Ye Yufengyan did not ease the pace of his attack due to the conversation. This was the top ten match, and there was absolutely no room for error, especially against an opponent like Su Ran. He had to be utterly alert, otherwise, he stood no chance at all!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Three bursts of light appeared beside Ye Yufengyan, transforming into his figure. They almost exactly resembled him; unless one looked closely, it was impossible to distinguish the real from the fake.

"Good grief, you even have clones? Summoning three all at once, are you trying to defy the heavens?"

Su Ran was completely shocked. He hadn’t expected his opponent to unleash a powerful move right from the start; was he aiming for a quick and decisive battle?

With this in mind, Su Ran also realized the urgency of the moment and hurriedly summoned his pets, planning to call forth his entire pet camp before Ye Yufengyan’s attack arrived.

"Brother Overturning Water, no offense!"

After rushing to a position five meters from Su Ran, Ye Yufengyan and the illusions dispersed to the northeast, southwest, and northwest, surrounding Su Ran and his menagerie of pets. Subsequently, all four struck at once, as a wild wind descended from the sky, sweeping towards the arena below.

"Ice Vortex, come forth!"

Before the fierce wind even struck, Su Ran already felt the pressure of the incoming technique. Out of responsibility for his summoned beasts, he chose not to dodge but clenched his teeth and started spinning the bone scythe in his hand. He intended to fight wind with wind and let the Ice Vortex scatter this wild windstorm!
